Global leaders meet in Ghana for Repairing International Development Conference 2026
The inaugural Repairing International Development (RID) Conference 2026 convened Indigenous communities, development practitioners, academics, researchers, policymakers and global leaders from across Africa, Asia, Latin America and other parts of the Global Majority in Accra, Ghana, from 29 June to 2 July 2026.
The conference also elevated the discourse on reparations within international development, advancing conversations on historical responsibility, structural inequalities and the need to move beyond aid-based models towards approaches centred on justice, repair and long-term transformation.
Participants further examined how reparatory justice can help reshape international development and foster more equitable systems of global cooperation that empower communities to lead their own development.
