Dr. Mans will talk about how NGOs work alongside poor communities and developing country governments to advance the MDGs, how they leverage resources from the private sector and philanthropists, and how project level work can be scaled up for broader impact. He will focus particularly on MDG 7 which touches on access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. The particular effort Dr. Mans will discuss in Ghana is partly funded by President Obama’s Nobel Prize money.
