Systemic approaches for sustainable growth, employment and resilience

This joint DCED-BEAM Seminar was the biggest DCED Seminar so far, bringing together 180 participants from 45 countries for three days; it was also the first Seminar explicitly designed to facilitate dialogue between donors and practitioners, with 40% of participants coming from donor agencies. 

Sessions were organised around six thematic streams:

  1. Systemic approaches in practice (including sessions led by Gatsby Africa)
  2. Employment and decent work
  3. Climate adaptation and environmental sustainability
  4. Innovative financing for systemic development
  5. PSD in fragile and conflict-affected contexts
  6. Effective donor-implementer relationships
