Myriam Ciza Gambini will be reepresenting the Centre at Concord’s Learning and Exchange Forum 2024. The panel discussion ‘Perspectives on Shifting the Power’ will serve both as an introduction to the Learning and Exchange Forum 2024 and as a way to highlight various, up-to-date perspectives on the topic of Shifting the Power. The panel will give background on the Shift the Power movement and touch upon some of the key current debates, such as decolonisation, localisation, leadership of the Majority World, feminist perspectives. It will also attempt to make a link between these key issues and the role of the EU within development and humanitarian sectors, to bring these perspectives even closer to the work of our confederation.
