Institut für nachhaltige und inklusive Entwicklung

Conferences

bezev organises conferences on various topics of development cooperation.

In addition to organising thematically diverse conferences, be it on the topic of inclusive urban development or Agenda 2030, bezev is also keen to document the presentations and results of the conferences and make them publicly available. In this way, bezev would like to focus on the topic of inclusion in development cooperation and create exchange and networking on the topic of inclusion.
