We invite you to participate in this new webinar focused on SSE public policies. An event to continue previous discussions.

In this virtual meeting, we would like to discuss aspects such as: What are the best SSE practices, from local to global? In which local, regional, and international spaces are the SSE movements co-constructing with local and national governments? How can this process of co-construction at different levels help the SSE movement to better address the challenges of Covid-19 and beyond?

On which Public Policies specifically? What are the next steps we should take/are taking together? How can we learn from each other and co-operate to improve our actions?

This webinar is part of the RIPESS 2020 SSE Global Vision Project through which RIPESS Intercontinental is launching a series of webinars to promote how SSE provides solutions to the global challenges we face.

Note: written translation will be available in both English and French during the webinar
