Each year GGI invites someone who in the past year has taken thinking, practice or both in good governance forward to address leaders across all sectors at the annual lecture.
This year's panel will feature former Good Governance award recipients and festival keynote speakers. Their collective expertise and experience in the field of governance guarantees a dynamic and engaging discussion, not to be missed.
