EU Local Change for Global Impact Summit

Dedicated to promoting impactful change from the local level to global scale, Ideagen, ACS Athens, and ALLILONnet are excited to present the 2023 local change for global impact summit.  This summit, hosted at the prestigious Ionian Parliament building in Corfu, Greece, will highlight Corfu and Corfu's leadership and unite leaders from diverse industries and sectors to address the pressing challenges faced by their communities and organizations and beyond.

By fostering cross-sectoral conversations and collaborations, we aim to harness the collective power of diverse perspectives and experiences and lay the groundwork for future cross-sectoral initiatives.

The Vision: To accelerate awareness and progress  toward achieving the 17 Global Goals by 2030.

Our Summit Mission: A Joint Approach to Deliver Collective Impact

Large-scale change to meet unprecedented social, resource, business, political and organizational challenges of today requires broad cross-sector coordination. When organizations and leaders across different sectors commit to solving a specific issue through a collective approach, they can make an impact that far exceeds the potential of their individual agendas. Ideagen Global, ACS Athens, and ALLILONnet strive to be the catalyst for this change by convening stakeholders, both locally and worldwide, to collaborate on solutions to provide universal impact.
