GMF Participates in Foundation Week June 01, 2010 / Brussels
The German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF) will hold an open debate held as part of the European Foundation Centre's Foundation Week - Foundations' Work . All are welcome to attend.
Engaging Policy Makers through Innovative Convening
Foundations seek to engage in dialogue with policymakers to advance their mission, but they compete with a multitude of other actors -- including corporations, media, and universities -- for the attention of a rather small group. GMF and its partners use a variety of tools for working with this group, including a strong emphasis on innovative convening. This event will highlight best practices for organizing dialogue with policymakers on the local, regional, national, and international levels.
