Increasing funding pressures are rapidly reshaping global development. Partnerships remain essential, but making them work today requires sharper alignment and clearer incentives.

On 23rd April, we will explore: 

How can cross-sector partnerships drive meaningful impact in an increasingly constrained funding environment?

We are pleased to already welcome:

• Raluca Bunea, Director Strategy & Impact, Open Society Foundations 
• Deepali Sood, Global Head, WomenX  Collective  & Office of the Executive Director, UNFPA 
 
The full list of speakers will be confirmed in the coming weeks. Their perspectives will set the stage for discussion among attendees from government, philanthropy, multilaterals, NGOs, academia and the private sector.
The evening will combine moderated conversation with informal exchange over light food and drinks — creating space to share experiences and explore new perspectives together.

It also brings our 10-year anniversary celebrations to a close and offers a moment to reflect on the work that lies ahead.
