Partos Future Exploration - The localisation agenda
Show Notes

We live in volatile, uncertain, and complex times. So, how do we navigate an age of uncertainty and complexity in global development? In this series, we explore the Future of Partos - the Dutch Development Cooperation Association that brings together nearly 110 Dutch Development NGOs.

In this episode we talk with Charles Kojo Vandyck about the localisation agenda. We discuss the current state of global development, the changing role of (I)NGO's, the collective responsibilities from actors in the Global North and Global South, and Charles shares some very practical suggestions on how you can accelerate the localisation agenda.
