ARC bridges research and grassroots perspectives to advance strategies to improve public and corporate accountability.
One way it approaches this is to learn with and from grassroots rights defenders, bolstering broad-based social and civic constituencies for accountability.
On this panel, five members of the ARC team will share more about the approach and reflect on learning with and from grassroots rights defenders in Colombia, Guatemala, and the Philippines.
The reception will offer an opportunity for further conversation with the whole ARC team.
