FAQ

International development cooperation has witnessed various changes in recent years. What was once solely a bilateral framework between traditional actors and stakeholders now incorporates, together with civil society and multilateral institutions, the decisive involvement of private actors. This is also achieved by offering new areas of action to emerging countries which at the same time become beneficiaries and drivers of sustainable development in which they are increasingly protagonists.

CodewayExpo represents, for this reason, one of the most important opportunities for participation aimed at meeting the protagonists of the sector and discussing the key themes of the Business for Cooperation oriented towards full respect for Sustainable Development

In a rapidly evolving world, where development cooperation takes on an increasingly crucial role, the private sector emerges as a key player in achieving development objectives.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT: INVESTING IN PEOPLEh. 14:30 - 15:30 | Codeway Plenary
In an era marked by rapid technological, economic, and social changes, vocational education and training emerge as fundamental pillars to promote sustainable and inclusive development. This meeting aims to highlight how investing in people, through education and upskilling, is essential not only to stimulate economic growth, but also to address global challenges, reduce inequalities and ensure that no one is left behind. In discussion will be the importance of professional education and training in the context of development cooperation, focusing on the role that MAECI, AICS, universities, sector experts and companies can play in catalyzing effective initiatives for the strengthening of human resources in vulnerable contexts. And in priority contests such as the African continent, this means helping millions of young people to design their own future.
