180 Degrees Consulting ESCPSocial Impact Summit, Paris, 12 March 2027

NGOs do more together than they ever can alone.

One day in Paris for people who run NGOs. Learn how to raise more funds, measure what you change, and use AI without losing your values. Then meet the peers who will help you do it.

Only around a third of SDG targets with available data are on track or making moderate progress. The next steps are practical, and they are taken by organisations like yours.Source: UN Sustainable Development Goals Report 2026, 36% of 139 targets with trend data.

Why a summit, and not just a webinar?One NGO is short of hands. Ten are not.

NGOs keep telling us the same thing: not enough capacity. Shared knowledge is the cheapest capacity there is. A webinar gives you slides. A summit gives you people to call. Try the slider to see the idea.

You leave with people to call, not only notes to read.

Three workshops, three ways to grow your impactPick the one your organisation needs most.

Tick what sounds like your organisation. We show you which workshop fits. They run in parallel in the late morning, about 35 people in each.

Which of these sounds like you?

12 March 2027, ParisTwo panels. Three workshops. One long lunch.

The morning panel looks at human rights and policy making. The afternoon panel looks at sustainability, circular economy and climate. Both are about the SDGs in action. The rest of the day is hands-on. Open any session for detail.

  1. Four volunteers on the desk. Your badge shows your first name in large type, so people start talking.
  2. A short welcome from 180 Degrees Consulting, then a moderated panel on human rights, inclusion and policy making: how NGOs shape the decisions that decide whether the SDGs move. Researchers, NGO leaders and institutional voices, to be announced. Time is kept for questions from the room.
  3. You choose one when you register. About 35 people in each, so everyone takes part.

  4. Seventy minutes with no programme. Most of the useful conversations at events like this happen over lunch, so we left room for them.
  5. The second panel turns to sustainability, circular economy and climate, and how NGOs of every size contribute. Panellists to be announced.
  6. When you register you can submit one operational challenge in 50 words. We select eight to ten. Each table has a host from 180 Degrees Consulting who keeps time and writes down three ideas and one named next step on an action card.
  7. We read out what the tables produced and agree how the group stays in touch. Action cards are compiled into a recap sent within ten days.

Programme in preparation. Times may change slightly before the day.
