🎯 Description: This is a unique chance for the Local4Action HUBs initiatives to meet and exchange with each other - and for initiatives that are paving the way to become a Local4Action HUB to witness the process first-hand and start engaging in our community. The session will also be a space to jointly reflect on our process so far while identifying the next steps moving forward, so we can keep this global movement rolling to promote a more sustainable, fair, and just way of living driven by the local and regional government constituency.
