invitation to Learning Series: Innovative Practices in Changing the International System – Challenges and Opportunities

Are you a champion of innovation and eager to be a part of a dynamic community driving positive change in the international peace and development landscape? If so, we are thrilled to extend a warm invitation for our upcoming Learning Series.

In this first session Innovative Practices in Changing the international system – Challenges and Opportunities., we will reflect on our experiences of working on local leadership through innovations in funding practices, accountability and learning, and partnership practices in the spirit of mutual learning and collaboration. We will also explore successes and setbacks and attempt to grasp what we can gain from unpacking how we overcame setbacks and how we can best support each other as a community. We hope to welcome you to this supportive and collaborative community as we learn how to best support local leadership in all our work.

The series is tailored to help those working in Danish NGOs to continue to learn from and engage with one another, as well as connect with colleagues outside of Denmark. The series will consist of four sessions held over the course of the year: each focused on a different aspect of the work of strengthening local leadership and advancing equitable programming, decided in collaboration with what interests you the most.  

The Learning Series will be co-designed and co-owned by everyone who joins us. We hope everyone will contribute and share their experience and shape the sessions in the future. In the subsequent sessions, we will seek to draw on the vast global community of colleagues and experts working to strengthen local leadership and support equitable programming.

Join us and connect with like-minded colleagues and contribute to supporting local leadership and equitable programming in your work.

Invitation to Workshop – Applying MEL Practices to Advance Local Leadership and Equitable Partnerships

Invitation to Workshop – Applying MEL Practices to Advance Local Leadership and Equitable Partnerships

Are you working with MEL in your organisation, and are you keen to know more about what you can do to promote local leadership and equitable partnership in your work with other like-minded individuals? Please join us at our upcoming workshop: Applying MEL Practices to Advance Local Leadership and Equitable Partnerships, on Thursday, June 22, from 9.30-15.30 at Jemtelandsgade 1, 2300 København.

Incorporating local actors in monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) processes is crucial for creating meaningful and sustainable change in the contexts where we work. However, implementing MEL practices in a way that supports local leadership can be challenging. Our workshop aims to collectively find strategies and approaches to navigate these challenges effectively.

This is part of a series, compromising of workshops for MEL professionals, confederations and large multi-mandated Danish NGOs and Strategic Partners (SPA) on specific ways to strengthen local leadership.

This workshop will bring together a diverse group of monitoring, evaluation, accountability and learning professionals to engage in mutual learning and joint problem-solving. We hope to create a space for sharing knowledge about challenges, opportunities and pathways that advance local leadership through MEL practices and processes.

By drawing on our diverse experience and learnings and using anonymised case studies shared by participants, we will collectively work to solve specific challenges to better apply learning and best practices in our work.

We are excited to embark on this joint learning trajectory with you!

Learning Note: Innovative Practices – Changing the International System to Better Enable Local Leadership

This learning note consolidates some of the innovative practices taking place within the aid system by different organisations and hopes to inspire all actors and institutions to learn from one another on concrete ways for changing the international system to better enable local leadership. In supporting systems change for local leadership, there is great potential in unlocking learning on practice innovations as one critical element in pursuing institutional and broader systems change, including structural and attitudinal change. In the coming months CSP will be hosting a series of events for deepening our shared learning and reflection on changing the international system for enabling local leadership and equitable partnerships.

Årsberetning 2022

I 2022 arbejdede Conducive Space for Peace målrettet for at fremme systemforandringer i det internationale bistands- og fredsopbygningssystem med afsæt i visionen om at styrke lokal ledelse og bæredygtig fred. Året markerede et vigtigt skifte i CSP’s strategi – fra at dokumentere de strukturelle udfordringer i det internationale system til at levere konkrete bud på, hvordan forandring kan skabes i praksis. Med lanceringen af publikationerne Chain of Influence og Innovative Practices blev fundamentet lagt for CSP’s systemiske tilgang og støtte til forandringsagenter verden over.
