Contrary to what current intellectual discourse in the social sector might lead you to think, the reality is that the vast majority of organisations working for people are small and massively underfunded. Neither governmental nor transgovernmental entities have been able to eradicate human problems through size alone, so it's clear that the answer lies in some alternate mechanism that leverages the power of small able organisations. My long term goal is therefore to support, enable and network the design and delivery of workable social solutions and manageable organisations that are still deeply connected to the frontline.
I mostly work behind the scenes designing and implementing programmes to address poverty, local economic development, reforestation, climate change, violence, identity, HIV, drugs, producer marginalization, human rights, financial and environmental sustainability, water, permaculture, education, conflict mediation, disaster recovery, trauma, trafficking, disabilities, social inclusion, political change, civil action, mental health, women's empowerment, youth at risk, microfinance, farming and agriculture, digital inclusion, gender issues and healthcare amongst others.

Since I spend most of time offline working with projects, I really struggle to keep up with blogging, but in the meantime I hope you enjoy whatever I have been able to post. Any suggestions, comments or connections always welcome :)
