CPET's delegation designed and facilitated the opening workshop session, and Professor Vinz gave several presentations and was the moderator of the public form. Overall, delegates from eight countries joined together at the summit, which was packed from beginning to end with rich discussion, deep thinking, and hands-on practice focused on moving the Global Capacities Framework forward through further research and welcoming additional schools into the Alliance.
