Then the discussion will kick off with R4D Senior Fellow Dani Kaufmann engaging in a conversation on the topics of state capture, climate change, and our shared responsibility in the Governance space. Following this, a panel will convene to discuss how to build the conditions for local coalitions to lead change:
- Miguel Cervantes (Executive Director, CCPM- Peru)
- Amanda Folsom (Senior Director for Collaborative Learning, Results for Development)
- Michael Jarvis (Executive Director, Transparency and Accountability Initiative)
