Green & Digital Value Chain Forums
Five Forums, because preservice happens in every sector.
Five sector-specific Value Chain Forums run in parallel, each holding its own room for the full day. Each Forum names one rapporteur who reports its headline finding at the Day One synthesis and, after the Indaba, carries its findings into Network Working Group 6 (Green: Forums 1, 2 and 4; Digital & Creative: Forums 3 and 5).
- When
- Day One, 11:30 to 13:00 and 14:00 to 15:30
- Who
- An invited international delegation, plus delegates with Forum places in their pass
- After the Indaba
