In this way, convening is not an add-on to strategy — it is strategy. While a single strategic convening can make substantial progress, it takes more than one gathering to unlock transformative change. This goal was set as a result of convening researchers, policymakers, global development leaders, funders, and civil society organizations representing farmers, teachers, and youth activists. As we look ahead, we remain committed to convening with purpose to unlock the transformative change we need to make opportunity universal and sustainable. That’s the power of strategic convening.
