You are cordially invited to the launch event for DAI's newest publication, Network-Centric Development: Leveraging Economic and Social Linkages for Growth. This event will bring together leading experts to discuss how network-centric approaches are spurring innovative approaches to global development challenges, and why all of us should pay attention. With the popularity of sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Devex in our own industry, we are all becoming more familiar with the value of networks in our daily lives. This discussion - hosted by DAI and organized by Devex - will explore how networks and network-oriented thinking are heralding a new era for the international development community, in everything from economic development to disease control and democratic transitions.
