We addressed a range of global challenges through the lens of partnerships. As a convenor, campaigner, and idea incubator, Concordia catalyzes action through shared- value approaches. Concordia not only promotes partnerships - we are actively building them through our Campaign series. At this year’s Summit, we explored partnership-based solutions to issues including labor trafficking, energy, migration, cancer research, food security, gender parity, and more. This report provides insight into the robust discussions held at the 2016 Summit and how Concordia will channel these conversations into concrete action through our Campaigns. It is our hope that key takeaways from the Summit and our work will inspire actors from across sectors to identify new avenues for collaboration. Concordia’s community is united by the common conviction that, together, we are greater than the sum of our parts. Only together can we tackle the challenges that face all of us.
