Les RDV de l’Expertise
These roundtable events mimic the style of a TV panel discussion. Each session focuses on a major international cooperation issue through two roundtable discussions that bring together global experts and practitioners. Held in-person or via live feed from key geographic regions, these sessions highlight the diversity of stakeholders in the field. The panellists interact directly with each other, sharing field experience, insights, and cross-cutting perspectives on current global challenges.
