Description

Lauren and Teia are back with another spicy episode. This time, they delve into the often-unquestioned power of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and its Development Assistance Committee (DAC) criteria. Relevance, Coherence, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Impact and Sustainability are the criteria included in this framework. They question how this evaluation criterion has become so common that it is rare to see other frameworks used to assess the success or failures of humanitarian or development work. Join Lauren and Teia as they take on some more power holders, as ever; they don't hold back. Trigger warning: At the beginning of this episode, Lauren and Teia discuss the recent introduction of laws in certain US states that are making it a criminal offence for you to bring your children to drag shows. You can find out more about this here.

Teia and Lauren have worked in the humanitarian, development, and peacebuilding fields for...long enough. Now they’re travelling around in a campervan, on a journey to understand what organisational transformation does, and could, look like. Join them each week as they discuss their non-profit experience and invite guests from across different sectors to pull back the curtain on how organisations function (or not) and understand what can be done on an organisational and individual level to address complex social issues. Are you ready? Are you sure? It might sting. Get Premium Content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
