Participants will gather online to debate, learn and work together on developing new strategies through an extended schedule of several weeks with dedicated workshops, discussions, and encounters with keynote speakers, experts and practitioners from around the world. This will be an unsurpassed opportunity to acquire knowledge and information, exchange expertise and experiences and source inspiration in a friendly and professional environment.
