Civil Society Solidarity: Building Bridges across Global Health Advocacy in Crisis Times.
The transition of events to a virtual format has limited civil society participation in the age of COVID-19. How can we push back on that trend and what lessons have we learned so far? Panelists will share their experiences and insights on barriers or breakthroughs for civil society advocacy across multilateral fora and convenings. Speakers also will highlight additional opportunities for collective advocacy across health and development or domestic and international campaigns in the medium and long term, as countries continue to respond to or recover from the pandemic, demonstrating alignment on multiple policy fronts.
