The international webinar “Global Citizenship in a Digital World: MGG-PRODIGEES, COP NIPA and Beyond” built upon the Managing Global Governance (MGG) Network’s long-standing partnership with the National Institute of Public Administration (COP NIPA) of Indonesia. Organised by Dr. Ajriani Munthe Salak, lead of COP NIPA, the web seminar invited Sinta Dame Simanjuntak, MGG Academy alumna and senior trainer at NIPA, and Benjamin Stewart, research associate at the German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) and manager of the MGG Network’s EU-funded digitalisation project, Promoting Research on Digitalisation in Emerging Powers and Europe towards Sustainable Development (PRODIGEES). The presenters highlighted the potential of transnational training networks for cultivating a sense of global community, global responsibility and action towards global causes, while setting the training context in the digital world.
The web seminar continues a conversation which was initiated during the “digitainable Forum”, hosted by the Bonn Alliance for Sustainability Research.
