Episode 2: The Future of Global Development

Goalmakers

In this episode, directors from VillageReach, The Hunger Project, and CARE talk about THE FUTURE OF GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT, and specifically, and perhaps most importantly at this juncture in current affairs, the concept of decolonizing global development. Listen to how each organization has embraced this shift, the challenges they’ve encountered and the successes they’ve achieved. And there have even been some surprisingly positive unintended consequences. 

Localization, decentralizing power, country-led development, community-led development, these are all terms that describe the shifting of power to the local communities where the humanitarian work is being performed. 

This session, recorded in December 2021 at our Goalmakers conference, is moderated by Akhtar Badshah, Distinguished Practitioner & Senior Lecturer at the University of Washington and author of Purpose Mindset.
