At the 10th anniversary celebrations of Results for Development R4D in Washington – in a great conversation on “Exploring New Models for Supporting Change Agents and Local Organizations.

If development is to be impactful and sustainable, it can only be so with local people and change agents at the helm. Yet, building up these organizations and institutions has not been as successful as local change agents and international development experts would wish.

How do we approach support for “on the ground, local organizations” differently? How do we identify who to work with, who can deliver for poor people, who to trust and partner within government and outside in civil society? With the private sector? How can the International community craft a more meaningful and impactful approach to support for those in local situations?

I joined David de Ferranti, Founder R4D and Gina Largomarsino, CEO, and a wonderful group of development practitioners from Peru, Jamaica, Kenya, USA, and international organizations Merck Foundation, 3ie, Teach for All, USAID, CGD etc. for a rich debate and brainstorm on solutions!

Wow

Wonderful achievement
