As the world grapples with multiple intersecting crises and the sector navigates a transition to locally-led, international development organisations must re-evaluate their approach to solidarity. This panel brings together leaders from local movements across the globe to discuss the role international development organisations play in local grass-roots movements. The panelists will offer fresh perspectives on how movement building drives long-term systemic change and explore how development practitioners and NGOs can be genuine and effective allies in an increasingly complicated and constrained environment. Join us as we delve into the complexities of solidarity and chart a path towards a more impactful, locally-led and sustainable future.
