What can UK voluntary organisations learn about collaboration from international NGOs?
Wednesday 4 June 2008; 12.00 - 14.15 ; Location: NCVO, London
In an era of globalisation in which the world is becoming increasingly connected and interdependent, many of the biggest and most complex challenges facing the UK, such as poverty and climate change, are also global. In response to these global challenges and the changing nature of governance, civil society organisations in different parts of the world are increasingly working together, establishing formal transnational alliances or collaborating perhaps more informally through networks. The implications for civil society organisations of engaging at local, national and global levels with a range of partners and stakeholders are significant.
This lunchtime seminar is the first of a series of seminars jointly organised by NCVO and the ESRC Non-governmental Public Action (NGPA) research programme at the Centre for Civil Society (LSE).
