Policy dialogue
Globethics engages with policymakers on the international, national, regional, and local governmental level, and at the higher education institution level, in multistakeholder academic and policy dialogues on global issues for transformative ethical leadership.
Our policymaking work includes organising and participating in policy events, facilitating and entering into policy dialogue, and developing policy reports, briefs, and advocacy plans on critical topics related to our four thematic strategic priorities.
