2025 Conference
Navigating Divides in a Modern World
As globalisation accelerates, so do the divides that separate societies. From digital inequality to the legacies of colonialism, this theme highlights the importance of inclusive development. Participants will confront questions such as, 'How do we ensure equal access to technology?' and 'How can societies embrace modernisation without erasing tradition?'. Through case studies, debates, and collaborative projects, participants will examine how to bridge divides and foster a more equitable and inclusive world.
