We find ourselves at a uniquely consequential moment in human history,
confronted by a new normal that is reshaping how power, knowledge, and responsibility are distributed across the world. The Lessons series is
a seven-part inquiry into international development as it is lived, practiced,
and inherited—particularly from the vantage point of the Global South.
Nthanda has spent her career at the intersection of global development, technology, and social change. Her work spans continents, and her purpose remains rooted in the global south: advancing equity, and building systems which ensure all people can thrive without limits.
Leaders, scholars, and changemakers from around the world are calling the Lessons Book Series a transformative work - a comprehensive synthesis of the past few decades of our efforts towards a more equitable future, and important conversations on the future of international cooperation and development.
The kind of evidence synthesis and truth-telling we need: bold, brilliant, and deeply humane. Nthanda offers the world a mirror, and an invitation into our new normal.
Such important work. Confronting the legacy of power with grace and fire. Nthanda’s voice rises from the Global South – sparking the on-going conversation on systems learning and accountability.
