In July 2018 we hosted our first GCRF Conference. We are now planning the second, to take place on 1-2 July 2019.
This time the format will be different. In the six months prior to the conference we plan to support a series of workshops in DAC list countries around the broad theme of ‘resilience’. The outcomes of these workshops will be fed back to the conference, and attendees will have the opportunity to discuss and become involved in the developing the next steps that will lead on from the workshops. As happened at the first conference, we will invite academics at Kent, academics globally, NGOs and other actors working in these areas.
Draft details of the 2019 Conference are available here.
GCRF Workshops call
In order to support the workshops, we are launching a funding call. The format is broadly the same as that for the Partnership Fund, and those who sought funding for workshops through that are welcome to submit again. However, you need to be aware that the workshops need to take place in the first half of 2019, and report back to the conference on 1-2 July 2019. Full details of the call are available here.
If you have any questions about either the conference or the workshops, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
