The event has passed.
This workshop proposes to focus on what we mean by governance, why good governance is important, the characteristics of a good governance framework and the roles and responsibilities of the different actors within that framework. We will touch on some of the practicalities of setting up and supporting a Board, including managing conflicts of interest. Participants are encouraged to submit questions in advance of the workshop, as well as suggestions for specific themes that they would like to see addressed.
