Activities / Cultural Event

Action vs. Talk

the Aleppo CDS is not just about strategy preparation; it is about implementation as well. Small and quick projects and activities are implemented on the ground while strategies are being prepared on paper. Activities can include small urban projects, training projects, events, public interest campaigns, and the formation of local, domestic, and international partnerships, alliances, cooperative agreements and networking.
