About our seminars

Exchanging ideas and sharing knowledge across cultures

Why come to one of our seminars?

Unlike many international conferences, the number of participants at our events is kept small, usually 25-30, allowing everyone the chance to join in and benefit fully from the experience.

Our seminars give you the opportunity to:

  • exchange ideas and share knowledge, information and practice
  • network with colleagues from around the world
  • build communities of interest among policy-makers and professionals
  • explore different perspectives
  • discuss latest developments in the UK with leading specialists
  • visit UK organisations and institutions
  • discuss issues in a relaxed atmosphere of mutual respect and openness
  • advance professional development
  • develop a basis for continuing dialogue.

Our unique style

Over the years we have built an international reputation for our unique style of seminar management which attracts over 900 participants to the UK each year. Our seminars provide an opportunity to engage in focused discussion with policy-makers, opinion formers and practitioners from around the world.

Each seminar is carefully structured to offer an intensive professional input, networking opportunities, professional visits and a programme of social activities, providing an experience that is both professionally and personally rewarding.

Seminars are residential, usually 4-5 days, and are held throughout the UK.
