About this event
For the first time we are bringing together groups from across the Greater Manchester area, who interested in issues such as; Climate Change, Refugees and International Aid & Development amongst others. We want to start the new year with a truly collaborative approach, grow our network and make a real impact in 2022.
Join us to hear about the effects that Aid cuts have in relation to global health and how it much more far reaching in terms of inequalities.
We will be discussing the impacts of the UK AID cuts on global health inequalities and the wider implications, for refugees and climate, with special guest speaker, Pillarisetti.
