Virtual Programme 2020

In response to the coronavirus pandemic, our focus over recent weeks has been to determine how best to maintain consistency and coherence in Ditchley programming, building a virtual programme that preserves the core elements of the Ditchley approach to discussions and can lead the way to future conferences on the challenges the pandemic raises for democracies. 

Over the course of the coming weeks, outlines of the discussions planned for the spring and early summer period will be published here. Over these months the discussions will build from the level of the individual, to communities, to systems and then to the wider world.  We will consult and involve partner organisations at every opportunity as well as ensuring these discussions are as transatlantic as possible from the beginning.
