SOLiD-South Mediterranean Social Dialogue is a pilot project for the promotion of social dialogue in the Southern Mediterranean Neighborhood. It is a three years programme (2016-2018), financed by the European Union. SOLiD brings together regional and international representatives of social partners as well as a number of relevant partners from the EU.

The Arab NGO Network for Development (ANND), along with the South Centre and Third World Network,organizes an annual Study Week On Trade And Investment policies In The Global South. This event this year will take place in fall 2016, in Geneva (Switzerland). The previous editions were exceptional opportunities to develop knowledge and expertise on the current trends of the global economy and its impacts in the South.

The Arab Watch Report on Economic and Social Rights is published biennially by ANND. The report entails monitoring public policies at the national and regional levels and assessing their impact on specific rights.

The Post-2015 development agenda, next-in-line to the MDGs, will be adopted at the United Nations 

summit that will be held from 25 to 27 September 2015. ANND actively engages with its partners in the 

process in order to contribute to the design of effective development policies for the Arab region.

Along its works, ANND reflects the need for transformative changes to global governance systems and to 

national policy choices in order to overcome inequality, exclusion and vulnerability.
