Raise Your Hand Nordic Midsummer Festival
Nordic countries are global leaders in education and crucial partners of GPE. The virtual Raise Your Hand Nordic Midsummer Festival is a platform for Nordic voices and other champions to put the global learning crisis on the agenda and commit to keeping education financing as a priority as the international community deals with the global economic and social impacts of COVID-19.The event will feature development ministers, influencers and artists from Nordic countries, foundations, multilateral organizations and youth representatives and is a countdown moment ahead of the Global Education Summit on July 28 and 29.
African Libraries are drivers of development in the communities they serve, but not many international development organizations perceive them as potential partners.
AfLIA, in collaboration with the Technology & Social Change Group (TASCHA), is organizing a three-part webinar series focusing on how libraries that desire more partnerships with development organizations to increase their local impacts can gain more visibility and connect.
