We are pleased to inform you that OECD/LEED is organising a workshop in Venice on 19th
April, 2016 on  Local answers to welcoming refugees and preparing for longer term.
The workshop will pay special attention, on the one side, to the role that social enterprises have in
welcoming refugees and preparing for longer term, and on the other side, to how local authorities,
public institutions, social enterprises and civil society organizations, private business, and citizens can
work together to provide the most impactful, tailored, and effective responses at local level.
This workshop is organised in the framework of the OECD Forum on Partnerships and Local
Development, for more information and to register please visit the website of the event. Note that
places are limited.
