On Day 1, participants will engage in keynote presentations, interactive learning exercises, and discussions focused on the art of assessing and communicating change. Together, we will explore the challenges, opportunities, and strategies necessary to create and measure meaningful impact.
Day 2 offers an open and dynamic space for networking, peer learning, and co-creation among members, shaping the next phase of Interaction’s work. Members will have the opportunity to guide the conversation by bringing forward the topics they find most pressing for thematic roundtable discussions. Additionally, we will continue our reflection on fundraising and resource mobilization, a key transversal priority in Interaction’s 2025-2028 strategy.
Interaction's general assembly takes place on the first day of the annual gathering on the 23rd of June 2025.
The Annual Gathering takes place at Montmirail in the canton of Neuchâtel (https://montmirail.ch/). You can reach the location from Zihlbrücke or from Marin-Epagnier railway station with a approx. 25min walk (flat over the field).
The annual gathering is in the first place for members of Interaction, but we are also welcoming interested persons from the NGO-sector. We are excited to receive you!
