About the Conference

The What Works Conference has been held by Partners of the Americas, in collaboration with Chapters across the hemisphere, since 2013 to bring together change-makers from different parts of the Americas to exchange experiences and demonstrate impact in terms of leveraged and sustained partnerships. It is a key peer-to-peer learning event opportunity. The theme for 2022 will be Partnering for Inclusive Growth, where presentations will highlight best practices and evidence new strategies on social and inclusive, equitable growth within the Western Hemisphere.

What Works will be held over four consecutive days, March 28-31, and feature panels, roundtables and poster sessions, as well as networking opportunities. All program alumni, Partners of the Americas’ Network Members, and the public are invited to participate.

This conference is made possible with support from the Education and Culture program that is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Education and Cultural Affairs with funding provided by the U.S. Government and supported in its implementation by Partners of the Americas.
