In-house Dialogue

In-house Dialogues

In-house dialogues are the most frequently held events at CPD, and involve a selected group of participants addressing a particular issue of topical interest. These dialogues are intended to cover a broad spectrum of areas. Some of the recent dialogues have addressed such issues as Quality of Municipality Services, State of Local Governance, Efficiency of Fiscal Policies and Gender Dimensions in the Development Process. Another in-house dialogue format has been designed to expose visiting donor missions to a cross-section of opinion from civil society regarding issues of both aid policy and domestic policy reforms. Agencies which have participated in such dialogues include UNRISD, DGIS from the Netherlands, CIDA, NORAD, the Ford Foundation and the World Bank.
