Regional Meetings, Conferences and Skillsharing

Forum holds regional meetings, conferences and skillsharing to advance the network's campaign on the ADB. At the regional meetings, member organizations in their respective regions come up with their strategy that will be presented to the FAM.

It also holds conferences on specific ADB policies and programs, such as the Safeguard Policies and Water Policy, to enhance its members' understanding of contentious issues surrounding the Bank's operations. It aims to further enhance the network's advocacy and campaign on a specific issue.

Skillsharing, on the other hand, provides participants with basic information about the ADB and its operations, monitoring tools, as well as civil society engagement with the ADB. It aims to build informed civil society movement and change agents in the region.
