You are kindly invited to join the next meeting of the Working Group Education/Research/Innovation. As an active member of this group, Velux Stiftung invites other members to an exchange around «supporting research in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)».

The goal of this first meeting is to:

• get to know other foundations active in this area
• exchange, get inspired by insights and experiences from other research-funding foundations
• collect metalevel challenges that your foundation is currently dealing with to plan further exchange

Programme:

1. Welcome & round of introduction
2. Input from 4 foundations (their activities, geographical and thematic focus, theory of change, underlying strategy etc.)
3. Open discussion and topic harvesting
4. Closing and next steps

The event is followed by a small apéro from 16:30 – 17:00.

This meeting is kindly hosted and provided by Velux Stiftung. Learn more about their research programmes here.

Please register via members@swissfoundations.ch until the 12^th of August.
