🤩 The interest in delivering high quality, equitable engagement is growing!

Locally, nationally and internationally, we're building the capacity of significant institutions to adopt a more participatory way of doing things...

🤔 "Won't politicians ignore what a citizens' assembly recommends?"

When set up properly, assemblies are a direct input into governmental decisions, promising upfront to respond to the Assembly's recommendations.

@sarahcastell speaking to @novaramedia earlier this week 👇

💥Citizens' Assembly Myths: Busted!

#CitizensAssemblies are gaining global momentum and voices from across the political spectrum in the UK are now advocating for their use.

However, misunderstandings persist about their purpose and benefits.

🔍 It's time for clarity…

Earlier @dhnnjyn joined Victoria Derbyshire on #BBCLauraK to talk about the terrible impact the conflict in Gaza and Israel is having on civilians.

[Stephanie Draper @SDStephDraper]

Well done to the Bond team for a great event at #CPC2023 and thanks to the many conservative MPs like Robin who continue to recognise the importance of the UK being a key global partner and playing its part in addressing global challenges of poverty, inequality and climate change

[Bond @bondngo]

"Development should be at the heart of where we define ourselves as a country" says @RobinMillarMP at Bond’s International Development Reception at the #ConservativePartyConference

[Stephanie Draper @SDStephDraper]

As I enter my last week, I want to share some reflections on our anti-racism and equity journey. I would love to hear your thoughts on how we are doing and any suggestions you have. I urge everyone to keep reflecting and checking that we are making progress and being good allies

[Bond @bondngo]

At Bond, we’re on a journey towards becoming an anti-racist and inclusive organisation, committed to addressing structural racism & striving for equity.
@SDStephDraper reflects on progress made in the sector on anti-racism, equity, diversity & inclusion.

Saving £1bn would make a massive difference to what could be done working with marginalised communities in Africa and Asia. Thanks @ONECampaign for these insights. Great to have you as part of @bondngo

[Romilly Greenhill @romilly_bond]

Last week, ONE released a new briefing that shows £1bn of aid could be saved if the Home Office sorted out their spending on how they provide support for refugees and people claiming asylum https://t.co/R0QKI7ELLY

Love a graphic on systems change!

[Systems Innovation @Sys_innovation]

We have found this to be one of the most effective of our graphics for explaining why we need new (system) approaches when dealing with complex systems.

You can find this and our other graphics available for use in your teaching and presentations here: https://t.co/7dpZbb7zvx

Bond member @MalariaNoMore has a new campaign to engage the public on end malaria. Britain has a proud history of supporting the fight against malaria, and has helped to save millions of lives - the public rightly want this to continue. Let's #finishthejob
#ZeroMalaria

[Zero Malaria Britain @ZeroMalariaGB]

We took to the streets to find out if Brits really care about ending malaria... 🤔

British science is ready to take the malaria fight to the next level and help end this disease within a generation. Since 2000, the UK has helped halve deaths from malaria - why walk away now?

[Mariana Mazzucato @MazzucatoM]

I joined @PikettyLeMonde @Jayati1609 @Winnie_Byanyima and others in calling for reforms to international finance @GlobalPubInvt. If we’re serious about @antonioguterres @UN #OurCommonAgenda then we need a new economics of the common good.
