IAS joins European Development Days

The fourth edition of the European Development Days will be hosted in Stockholm, Sweden, on 22-24 October 2009. The European Development Days are a yearly event hosted jointly by the European Commission and the EU Presidency.

The European Development Days bring some 4 000 people and 1 500 organisations from the development community together on an equal footing. Delegates from 125 countries are represented, including heads of state and leading world figures, Nobel prizewinners among them.

The event aims to make development aid more effective, to build a global coalition against poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals. Through frank and sometimes controversial debates on pressing issues, such as governance, poverty and environmental sustainability, the European Development Days provide unprecedented opportunities for sharing ideas and launching innovative partnerships.
