Why build a strategic partnership? Can alliances help organisations save resources? How long does it take to build one, and what form should it take? Where does the initial impulse come from, and how does it become a collective project? And how can an alliance be sustained over time?

This webinar will explore the realities of strategic partnerships between international solidarity organisations, drawing on the experiences of AVSF – Agronomes et Vétérinaires Sans Frontières, Gret and Cerise+SPTF. Speakers will share their journeys, lessons learned and the questions that emerged along the way.

ScaleChanger, which supports organisations working for social and environmental impact, will provide a cross-cutting perspective on organisational alliances and transformation.

The webinar is organised as part of the Fonds de Renforcement Institutionnel et Organisationnel (FRIO) of Coordination SUD, which supports international solidarity organisations in their organisational transformations.

Speakers:

• Frédéric Apollin, Deputy Managing Director, AVSF
• Luc Arnaud, Managing Director, Gret
• Fanny Cassagne-Le Maguet, Operations Director, Cerise+SPTF
• Isabelle Hoyaux, Founder, ScaleChanger

Moderated by: Anaïs T. and Stéphanie Pichat Delépine, FRIO Programme Officers, Coordination SUD.
