The Leadership and Sahel Studies Center (CLES), firmly committed to leadership and capacity building for local organizations involved in the humanitarian field, invites you to a webinar on the introduction to aid localization. During this webinar, we will discuss:

• Understanding the term « as local as possible, as international as necessary » in humanitarian response.
• The latest reflections on introducing this approach through the Grand Bargain at the World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul in 2016 and where the discussion stands today.
• And, most importantly, how knowledge of international commitments aimed at increasing investment in the capacities, delivery, and leadership of local responders can support you as a local/national NGO.
