A two-day roundtable, aimed at formulating a five-year strategic plan to tackle social cohesion, will begin tomorrow at the Arthur Chung Convention Centre.
The event, which is to be held under the theme ‘Social Cohesion for Lasting Unity and Peace,’ has been organised by the Ministry of Social Cohesion, which hopes to engage and garner contributions from citizens to enhance togetherness at the community and national levels.
Following the event, which will see presentations and working groups on the first day and the crafting of the plan by technical personnel on the second day, it is hoped that practical options and strategies for building social cohesion will be identified.
The event is being financed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the British High Commission.
