Reflections on the GRSI CSO Global Sponsorship Summit

At the Global Sponsorship Summit in Dublin, Pathways International Fellow Valeria Gomez was reminded of the deep human need for safety and belonging.

From grassroots efforts in Poland to the Welcome Corps in the U.S., the discussions highlighted how communities and governments can collaborate to ensure security and compassion.
