Think, Act, Show - thematic approach in preparation for the ALF Forum 2025

Members from the Moroccan, Irish, Spanish, Tunisian, & Belgian French networks met in Marrakesh in February 2025. Between the 29-30 February members co-developed a cross network exchange between 6 countries and looked at how each member country will select suitable candidates to facilitate a workshop, panel discussion, performance or debate during the upcoming ALF Forum in Tirana, Albania June 2025.

Members present in the Marrakech meeting presented themselves in a round table discussion, talked about their skills and background and their work within the ALF network. These included the members as mentioned above. Each member reflected on how best these skill sets will match or reflect the theme of the Forum Think Act Show. The aim of this cross network exchange is to support dialogue between the global north and south.

Throughout the meeting, members looked at how best each country could collaborate with a specific thematic approach - this took some time and at the end of day 2 a formula or table of who would go where, present which theme and topic specifically related to the areas of interest was finalised. No easy feat but we managed to reach a conclusion!

Watch out for more updates on the ALF Forum website as this cross network exchange is busy behind the scenes preparing for the Forum.
