					<description><![CDATA[I was immediately a fan of the Doing Development Differently (DDD) manifesto. It was launched in 2014 while I was an ODI Fellow in Zanzibar. I recognised that &#8220;too many development initiatives have limited impact&#8221; and fail to address the complexity of their context. I saw this all around me: well-meaning and talented outsiders arriving &#8230; ]]></description>

I spoke to an audience ranging from freshers to post-grads on building a career in international development. Instead of presenting from a particular end point or a particular organisation, I gave four pieces of advice and &#8230; ]]></description>

Duncan Green does not shy away from difficult questions and uncomfortable answers, and this is what makes How Change Happens all the more valuable. How &#8230; ]]></description>

(I&#8217;m currently reading it &#8211; review coming soon). I hope you enjoy the articles as much as I did and get inspired. Without further ado, here is your Saturday Morning Reading&#8230; 1. &#8230; ]]></description>

He says things like, “to learn hard things quickly, you must focus intensely without distraction”. You &#8230; ]]></description>

It’s not the first time this has happened in my life but this time I wasn’t even worried about whether she would like me. The problem is that she was French and I had agreed to speak to her in her own language. &#8230; ]]></description>
