Organized in partnership with the AMR Multi-Stakeholder Partnership Platform, the discussion will bring together community representatives, policymakers, international organizations and other AMR stakeholders to explore how community perspectives can be more meaningfully integrated into AMR governance, financing, accountability and implementation, and to identify priority actions that can be advanced in the lead-up to Abuja.
