Global Crossroads: The Role and Perspectives of CSOs in Development Cooperation, 24-26. Nov 2010, Nicaragua

In continuation of its conference on paradigm shift in development cooperation (the Prague Conference 2008) TRIALOG is organising a conference on “The Role and Perspectives of CSOs in Development Cooperation”. This conference will take place in Nicaragua from 24th to 26th of November, 2010. In the frame of this conference we invite CSO representatives from the 12 new EU member states, from the 15 old EU member states and from the “Global South” (especially from Latin America) to continue the discussions started and to find joint statements on the identity and role of CSOs in development cooperation in the “North” and in the “South”. The conference is organised in cooperation with Horizont3000 and the URACCAN University.

From Nov. 29th to Dec. 3rd, TRIALOG is organising field visits to development projects in Nicaragua for participants from the 12 NMS. The visits will include meetings with local stakeholders, CSOs, the local target group and beneficiaries, as well as official representatives of the EC-delegations and regional offices of the European national representations.
