"Promoting Development in Europe: Towards a Critical Mass and Beyond" is a conference on the role of civil society campaigning for International Development in New EU member states. The event is organised by the Minority Rights Group in Budapest on 19-20 November 2009.
The objective of this conference is to build the capacity of NGOs and other stakeholders such as teachers, coordinators of youth groups or grassroots organisations who have an interest in or link with development issues and the Millennium Development Goals in the new EU member states in order to:
- raise public awareness in their countries about development issues in developing countries
- incorporate and/or campaign for the implementation of human rights-based approaches in development work.
The conference will consist of a combination of plenary sessions and participatory workshops. Only candidates from the new EU member states or working on issues related to International Development in new EU member states are invited to apply.
The deadline for applications has been extended to 8 November 2009.
