Imagining and Investing in our Future

Executive director Anna, head of research funding Kalle and communications coordinator Laura attended the “Imagining and Investing in our Future ” conference organised by the European Foundation Center (EFC) in Amsterdam at the end of May.






In the discussions, the refugee crisis and migrations were very much in focus, as well as changes brought along by the Internet, gender issues, responsible investing, and developing sustainable societal solutions.

The conference has been covered in blog postings in the Alliance magazine, where Kalle and Laura also write about their thoughts.
