The urgent need to address social issues has driven numerous attempts to frame, prioritize and measure development efforts. While these initiatives play a vital role in driving dialogue, channeling resources and catalyzing action, they are often fraught with controversy and tension—particularly between top down and bottom up constituencies. Join leaders at the forefront of the most prominent global initiatives to prioritize and measure progress, along with social innovators who are working on the frontlines. Expect candid dialogue on how these efforts help, how they harm and how they can be improved.
