Following the cuts to UK aid, join us as we debate the future of global development and the UK’s role within this. The panel will explore the public’s view of aid, what role they think the UK should play in the world, and how public opinion can help rebuild a credible case for UK leadership on international development. Featuring Baroness Chapman (invited). 

This panel takes place in the secure zone of the 2025 Labour Party Conference, and attendees will require a conference pass.
