Look back on advocacy: 2016, the year the rule-book broke

Breakfast Briefing at Villa Barton, Geneva
This year we faced multiple surprises: Brexit; the unexpected election results in the U.S. and elsewhere.

-Can we talk about the radical shift in the way campaigning should be done to be effective? What are the reasons?
-How should advocacy campaigners adapt to this rapidly changing landscape?
-Which events will influence and define the 2017 agenda?

Join us for a discussion around these questions and more.

Coffee and croisants provided.
