The Assembly

Designed for serious exchange

The Assembly is a working international gathering rather than a conventional conference. Its format privileges substantive dialogue, carefully constituted participation and relationships that support cooperation beyond the meeting itself.

Plenary dialogues, leadership roundtables, community sessions and a cultural programme create a setting for direct and consequential exchange.
