Learning Themes
As a part of a global learning strategy, nine key themes have been identified around co-operative development programming. These draw upon the experiences of the Global Communities-implemented co-operative development programs. Each of these themes are explored more broadly, often from a market systems development perspective, and using specific examples from the Global Communities programs.
