The Arab Reform Initiative, The Alternative Policy Solutions at the American University
in Cairo, and the Moroccan Institute for Policy Analysis are pleased to announce an
upcoming conference titled "Civil Society Organizations and just Transition in the
MENA: Challenges and Opportunities", scheduled to take place on May 29 and 30,
2023, at the Gefinor Rotana Hotel in Beirut, Lebanon.
The conference will explore the concept of Just Transition, a principle that underscores
the necessity of integrating intersectional socio-economic aspects into sustainable
development and green transition plans...
The webinar aims at discussing social justice and social contracts in the Middle East, a region that is also witnessing one of the largest-scale displacements in history. It will reflect on aid interventions, by exploring the formulation of (new) social contracts, based on greater social inclusion of non-nationals, for the provision of social justice for all.

The objective of the webinar is to shed light on various contextual experience and challenges countries of the region are facing, and how civil society actors, scholars, experts and activists, can jointly push forward a right based narrative and policy agenda.
