Advancing Good Governance in International Development is an annual seminar that has been developed to bring together thought leaders from the academic, donor, NGO, government and private sector communities. The Programme is developed through a cross-sector collaboration among the Blavatnik School of Government, Camfed, the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship and Linklaters to identify timely issues in international development and how good governance may address those issues.

 

The 2013 seminar takes place in Oxford on 6 and 7 June, and is titled, "Sustainability of Impact: For the Sector, or the Client?" The event includes sessions that explore ways for new technologies, business models, and governance approaches to assist the international development community with empowering its clients - the recipients of development aid - and enhancing development outcomes for them.

 

The goals of the annual seminar are:

  • to synthesise the fragmented ideas of governance that are frequently propounded
  • to improve governance, and, thereby, social outcomes by integrating academic research with social and private sector perspectives
  • to formulate standards for governance in the international development

 

Registration is required to attend this event.
