5 debate formats

The conversations bring the speakers into a close conversation on a global governance issue.

The lab is a place where speakers devise with participants on ways to craft sustainable peace.

The brainstorms enable the project leaders to gather advice from experts and the wider audience on how to tackle a specific challenge of their initiative.

During fishbowls, the audience joins the panellists to help project leaders in developing their initiatives and in solving global governance problems.
