Your Invitation for Sociocracy 3.0 | 25.09 to 27.09 | @Wirkstatt, Toggenburg

 

>>> Invitation by collaboratio helvetica

A lot is moving and changing in our world and individuals and organisations are recognising the need to transform and adapt their way of making decisions and work together. This is very well seen in the ever rising demand for new governance approaches like holocracy. However, our vision is so cool because we believe that it will be with the help of Sociocracy 3.0 and its adaptable patterns of collaboration through which we'll enable the Swiss ecosystem to take a next step towards the Sustainable Development Goals.

PEGNet Conference 2017: National Inequalities and how to address them

 

>>> Invitation by PEGNet and NADEL

PEGNet Conference 2017: National Inequalities and how to address them

ETH Zürich, 11th and 12th of September 2017.

Rising national inequalities hamper economic growth and  poverty reduction and may lead to polarization and social unrest. Recognizing this, the international community has pledged to reduce inequality within and among countries. A profound analysis of the concept, drivers, and consequences of inequality and protection policies is essential to effectively reduce inequalities. The PEGNet Conference 2017 places within-country inequality at center stage, bringing together leading development scholars and policy-makers to reflect on national inequalities as well as policies that can be implemented to address them.

The conference will provide a platform for high-level dialogue and exchange of ideas between development researchers, practitioners and policy-makers. The two conference days will feature parallel sessions based on invited and contributed papers. The parallel sessions will be complemented by two panels and two keynote speeches by renowned speakers from academia and development practice. In addition, the PEGNet Best Practice Award (sponsored by KfW) and the Impact Award (sponsored by SDC) will be awarded.

More information and the link for registration can be found here.

We look forward to meeting you in Zürich! Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.

Kind Regards,

Isabel Günther
