Information

IFPRI’s Deputy Division Director of Markets, Trade, and Institutions Nicholas Minot is participating in the webinar, “Sharing civil society experiences in adapting evidence-based advocacy” on July 15, 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a seismic shift in the way our world operates. How can civil society use evidence-based advocacy to effectively contribute to inclusive recovery ensuring sustainable food, energy and water, sanitation and hygiene services in this “new normal”?

This webinar will highlight how the Voice for Change Partnership programme adapted (in proactive and reactive ways) by finding innovative solutions to continue engaging with policymakers on the issues they advocate for. The speakers will share concrete examples on the ground, followed by an analysis of the global relevance of evidence-based advocacy from the discussants.
