Networking and peer learning at the core of IKI
|
Dear IKI Partners and Friends,
Collaboration and knowledge exchange among IKI projects are essential for maximizing our impact and refining our funding program. Events serve as crucial platforms for achieving these goals.
We are delighted to introduce an events calendar on the IKI website, enabling projects to directly share their upcoming events. This initiative aims to foster broader engagement within the IKI community, regardless of whether events are held online, in-person, or in hybrid formats.
You can access further details about the new online tool through this link.
Our IKI events reflect the diversity of our projects. In this newsletter, we showcase examples such as a matchmaking event in Peru focusing on impact investment and a study trip where a Chinese delegation visited Berlin to discuss climate protection and air pollution control.
Excitingly, we are also announcing the opening of a new call for IKI Small Grants.
We hope you find this newsletter edition enriching.
Warm regards,
Your IKI Communications Team
