Social Development Week 2021
The Social Development Week 2021 kicks off a half-year series of learning and networking that aim to propel us to pilot, upscale, or innovate ways of empowering our organizations and partner communities. We will learn from the experiences and perspectives of international and national CSO alliances, business groups, the academe, and/or young leaders on transformative work. We will identify action points or set new directions that will strengthen or expand how we engage with other stakeholders in order to respond to the challenges of achieving effective social change.
e-Talk Sessions
The e-Talk sessions, the first set on May 25-26 and the second set from July-November, will feature different civil society organizations’ good practice or powerful ideas on networking, empowering, and transforming effectively or innovatively in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous situation we are currently in.
