I reviewed @CreoleBauer‘s „The New Breadline“ & really liked it!
It’s a „highly readable & important book about topics that really should not exist anymore: Hunger, malnutrition & the weaponization of food as some of the worst impacts of contemporary wars“

[Tobias Denskus @aidnography]

I really enjoyed reading @MustafaMarwan's humanitarian novel "Guns & Almond Milk"!
"The novel retells the old story of humanitarianism with contemporary astuteness of how damaged & damaging the humanitarian project has become in the rubble of a hospital in Yemen"

[Tobias Denskus @aidnography]

In my new post "How the conservative playbook to undermine aid & reduce civil society space is working out in Sweden" I am summarizing recent cuts in the #globaldev sector & how they could undermine Sweden's aid efforts at home + abroad

#News | IDinsight is excited to announce that over the weekend, IDinsight’s @tom_wein, along with co-authors Cait Lamberton and @NeelaSaldanha, launched their book “Marketplace Dignity: Transforming How We Engage with Customers Across Their Journey” in a live event in London, UK.

Built on the research conducted by IDinsight’s own Dignity Initiative, in Marketplace Dignity, the authors introduce a tangible, practical way for brands and organizations to stand up for the fundamental value of humans and, in so doing, be a force for good in a society that increasingly demands it.

There's a lot of talk about equitable research partnerships but are they truly transformative?
DSA webinar on 30 May will explore what this means by looking at the Africa Charter for Transformative Research Collaborations.
