PFI, along with Northeastern University and Rwanda Environmental Management Authority, brought together global stakeholders on 6-10 February 2024, at the Rockefeller Foundation’s Bellagio Center in Italy, for an in-depth discourse on environmental multilateralism. The initial sessions were focused on understanding and addressing capacity constraints and leveraging collective energy for environmental advocacy. An important aspect of the discussions was the role of imagination in strategy development and the importance of considering various perspectives and challenges faced by different regions, particularly emphasizing the unique position of small states in the global context.
