And that’s a wrap! #SACE2022 has come to an end. Thank you to all of our speakers, attendees, and sponsors for everything you have put into the conference. We have so much more in store for you this year, so we hope you stay engaged.
In the meantime…we’re beat! See y’all!

Are we honest on what development is? Are we saying that wealthy nations have reached the pinnacle of development? - @FeliciaAyensua #SACE2022
Q: What is at stake when we don’t have these conversations?

International development should be international accountability. In practice, we need to rebuild systems, as well as, trust. - @adoseofdlo #SACE2022 #internationaldevelopment #BHM
