In this compelling piece, Melody Song writes about the importance of rethinking power dynamics in development funding and these systems can be improved to be more accommodating.
“In a blog post, Degan Ali, of Adeso critiqued the “unhealthy power dynamic” between aid organizations and funders, arguing that a shift toward “philanthropic capital” has allowed Adeso for more creative, locally led solutions.”
Thank you Melody Song for the mention in your opinion piece in Devex. We agree – a new approach to development funding is needed!
