From the 18th to the 27th of May, the Coalitions for Impact Booster Sessions for Iraq, Lebanon, Tunisia and Jordan took place, organised by Society Impact and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Iraq, Lebanon and Jordan have been profoundly affected by the conflict in Syria. In order to help mitigate the spill-over effects, all three countries have been designated by the Dutch Government as focus countries for intensified international cooperation. Motivated by a shared sense of responsibility, it is time to join forces.

The Netherlands and the United States jointly organised the Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES), at the World Forum in The Hague on 4 and 5 June 2019.

The Coalitions for Impact launch gathering on January 29th yielded a substantial reservoir of potential coalitions. In order to take these potential coalitions to the next level, Society Impact organised pressure cooker sessions. These sessions were designed to spark inspiration, identify common purpose and define respective shared missions.

On January 29th the Coalitions for Impact launch gathering took place; an unprecedented gathering of public and private organisations, NGO’s, philanthropist funds, knowledge institutions and social impact financiers.
