Inclusive Development: Charity or Justice? Why the difference determines whether Africa’s progress reaches everyone or leaves some behind.
The crowd erupted in applause as the ribbon was cut. Women ululated.

Why Impact Measurement and Accountability Matter in the Development Sector
In the development sector, good intentions are not in short supply. Across continents and communities, resources are mobilized, projects are launched, activities are executed, and compelling stories of change are told.

Yunana learned the language of silence early. At seventeen, he was bright, handsome, and full of promise—but those words rarely appeared in the same sentence as his name.

Women’s Economic Empowerment, the Lifeline of National Development
In Nigeria, like many parts of the world, women are the backbone of families and communities.
