As part of Global Partnerships Week, InterAction will host a side event on creating effective partnerships in the development and humanitarian space. This event will be structured in an unconference style, allowing participants to group themselves around topics they would like to learn more about and talk with InterAction staff and other guests about ways to partner on development and humanitarian issues.

InterAction's CEO will give opening remarks and then the head of the State Department’s Office of Global Partnerships will talk briefly about how to create effective partnerships. Participants will then organize around one or more of the topics below for informal discussion.

InterAction will provide drinks and snacks for participants during the informal networking and partnership exploration period. Come join us and learn more about partnerships for international development and humanitarian action!

Topics of partnership discussion might include:

• Aid Effectiveness
• Agriculture & Food Security
• Environment & Climate
• Gender Equality

• Humanitarian Practice and Protection

...and many more!
