Houses of Parliament launch event - Manifesto for dialogue, collaboration and action Post Rio+20

This event is closed to bookings as we have reached maximum capacity. We are delighted with the response to this vital event. 

The event is hosted by Joan Walley MP, Chair of the Environmental Audit Select Committee.

This event will be held at the House of Commons, London on Tuesday 17 December between 11am and 1pm. The Manifesto (see below in 'downloads') will be an important stimulus document which has come about by a wide consultation of over 50 organisations.

The manifesto calls on Governments, education sectors, NGOs and civil society in the United Kingdom to work more closely together to strengthen the role of education as an enabler of Sustainable Development. Further, it calls for supporting mechanisms that governments and civil society should put in place to enable and strengthen UK delivery of the educational commitments agreed in The Future We Want.

This lively event promises to be very stimulating centering on round table dialogue between students of all ages, representatives of business, politics and education plus education stakeholders from churches, unions and NGOs. We ask, ‘what is and what isn’t working, and what can I do to make change happen?'
