In Pursuit of Development: Evolving Scenarios for the Social Sector
The webinar will be relevant for all working in the development sector, particularly those working or planning to work in leadership roles in social sector organisations.
In this era of rapid change — heightening conflicts, climate change, geopolitical shifts, and evolving frameworks of global development— this webinar invites development professionals and emerging leaders to pause and reflect.
What is the meaning of development? What are the assumptions about development that underpin our work? Does history matter for developmental work? If yes, whose history? How do we understand the role of the State and other institutions in development? The speakers have long experience of deconstructing some of these questions for participants from the development sector.
Who should attend?
The webinar will be relevant for all working in the development sector, particularly those working or planning to work in leadership roles in social sector organisations.
