Sector Economic Growth
“When I visit our projects, I’m struck by the way local teams and recipients of aid are now driving their own agendas and innovating locally. Ten years ago, programs were implemented largely by ‘international experts’. Now, our programs are run by talented and empowered national staff. It feels like a transformation and I can’t help but get excited by it.”
