SUMMARY:Overprincipled and underperforming: the Global Compact for Migration and the challenge to multilateralism
DESCRIPTION:Event co-hosted by the LSE Institute of Global Affairs and the Firoz Lalji Centre for Africa. \nIn the lead to the current UN intergovernmental negotiations for a Global Compact for Safe\, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM)\, Professor Gibril Faal published a paper entitled ‘Overprincipled and underperforming’.  At this lecture\, he will use the GCM negotiations to illustrate the need for a practice-based approach to multilateral agreements\, at a time when multilateralism itself seem to be under attack. He situates the discourse in the context of implementing the Sustainable Development Goals\, and proposes an ‘Agreement-Implementation Matrix’ as framework to move from policy to practice. \nGibirl Faal is a member of AFFORD’s Board of Trustees and a Visiting Professor in Practice at the Institute of Global Affairs and a multidisciplinary business and development executive. He was one of the global leaders who spoke at the 2016 UN Summit for Refugees and Migrants\, which led to negotiations for a Global Compact on Migration. \nFor more info and to book your ticket\, click here .
