As the international development community continues to discuss locally led development and sustainable development, what is the role of private sector actors, and at what level? In this 90-minute webinar, we will hear from private sector actors who are leading development solutions at the national and local level to address the real problems households, communities and governments are facing. Panelists from around the world will talk about how they are choosing products and markets, and engaging with governments,  NGOs, and other private sector actors, to improve economic opportunities in their local area. 

This event is organized by ACDI/VOCA as a part of our series on Locally Led Development. Thank you to our series sponsor and event organizer!
