GDN's flagship event, the Global Development Conference (GDC) 2024 will take place in Suva, Fiji from November 26-28, 2024 on the theme - Global Synergies: Climate Resilience Strategies for a Sustainable Tomorrow. It is being organised in partnership with the University of the South Pacific and the Government of Fiji.
WHY FIJI AND CLIMATE RESILIENCE STRATEGIES FOR A SUSTAINABLE TOMORROW?
The theme of ‘Global Synergies: Climate Resilience Strategies for a Sustainable Tomorrow’ was crafted taking into consideration the regional significance of Fiji as an island nation extremely vulnerable to the threat of climate change, and the nation’s national priorities and regional initiatives focused on this.
Fiji plays a strong and dynamic role in the collective pursuit of climate resilience, interconnected with similar struggles faced by the wider Global South. The conference aims to highlight this through a strong collaboration between the Global Development Network and the Government of Fiji, a leader and particularly affected country in the region.
The 2024 Global Development Conference is being structured in an innovative way to transcend traditional plenary formats, prioritizing an immersive capacity-building experience while delving into climate change challenges across diverse contexts. This time, we are inviting innovative ideas to shape the conference agenda! This is a unique opportunity to suggest topics and activities for a wide array of conference segments - plenary and parallel sessions, keynote speeches, and interactive workshops and training sessions. Check out the Call for Ideas!
