Subject: Finding good partners is the key to success in anything

Come learn about the community behind, and often in front of, our work

Hi Friend,


In the development world, one is truly the loneliest number. A decade of experience has shown us that it takes the expertise of many community, implementation, technology, and funding partners to build a successful program. Many of them become more than partners, they become friends and part of our global community.

Join us on Friday, October 29th from noon to 1:00 (Pacific Standard Time) as we introduce you to the many talented partners and friends who help us do things like meet village chiefs, receive government certification, and even design toilets.

Did you miss our last Chat?

How do you create the conditions that inspire and free people to transform their lives? How do you share the goodwill and knowledge of one community with another? How do you help solve or mitigate big problems like climate change at a local level? And how do you do all these things in what are often marginalized or excluded communities?


We believe that the answers to these questions are found through community-led development (CLD) - an approach and framework that places people at the center of their own future. In last month's Chat about community-led development, we explore how CLD works and how our partner communities are turning this new knowledge into their own vision of prosperity, health, and social good.

Until our next Chat, be well and be safe everyone.
