WELCOME: Making the case for global cooperation
Jonathan Glennie
Summary.
WELCOME is a practical tool for designing politically resonant narratives around ambitious public-interest policies. Building on GCI's Public Good research, it identifies seven complementary reasons people support working together.
The framework is informing GCI's work on green industrial policy, international cooperation, migration, humanitarian action and public investment, and will be applied to the narrative for the next UN Secretary-General.
