PolyCIVIS Agora Forum

The PolyCIVIS Netwo​rk has the pleasure of inviting you to the PolyCIVIS Agora Forum - a high-level dialogue bringing together representatives of the academic, policy, diplomatic, international and civil society communities, as well as youth organisations.

Polycrisis: Towards adaptation and transformation through collaboration

At a time when crises are increasingly interconnected, mutually reinforcing and transnational in their

consequences, the Forum will consider how governance can evolve to better anticipate, navigate and respond to conditions of polycrisis, with a particular focus on Africa and Europe. 

The Forum will provide a platform for strategic reflection and exchange across disciplines and institutions, focusing in particular on the development of the polycrisis framework and its implications for governance. 

Discussions will address how research and evidence can contribute to more adaptive, inclusive and transformative approaches to policymaking and collective action.

The programme will bring together senior experts and practitioners from the Brussels diplomatic community, European and international institutions, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Council of Europe, the Nordic Africa Institute, ECDPM and UNU-CRIS, among other distinguished contributors.
