Ned Breslin added a blogI am starting a podcast series in partnership with the Stanford Social Innovation Review (http://www.ssireview.org/) with support from the Stanford Graduate School of Business. The focus of the series is to think beyond conventional international development work... for inspiration so that challenges can be better addressed by looking beyond the limitations of our particular development sector. Through this Podcast Series Project, we will, for instance, look at how social movements are formed and...morelessDetails12 days ago- When:May 10, 2013 12:16 PM

John Sauer updated a blogBy Patrick Moriarty, IRC Water and Sanitation Centre and John Sauer, Water For People What is it that IADB’s Max Valasquez Matute in Honduras finds... ‘only a bit short of a miracle’?

Laith Furatian 2 months agoI am so glad this theme is being discussed, such an important topic.
