In the run-up to the International Monetary Fund and World Bank's Spring Meetings this week, ...Accountability Lab Co-CEO Blair Glencorse and over 100 former leaders, activists, academics, and artists have signed a letter urging G20 leaders to:

🔲 Triple investment in our future.
🔲 Eradicate crippling debt that shackles development.
🔲 Make polluters pay for a cleaner planet.

We need a financial system that empowers progress, not stifles it.

Let’s reform our institutions and make them work for people and the planet. Read and share the full letter at globalgoals.org/dearG20

🗺 Our cohort of young changemakers has mapped the way forward for their initiatives in a joint ...online session.

They answered the 'why' of their projects and organizations, how they relate to the challenges they wish to solve, and identified important stakeholders.

In the run-up to the following session the cohort will work on their purpose, objectives, and goals, then prepare to share it with the rest of the cohort. AL will be holding smaller group sessions to support the process.

#democracydelivers with @USAIDDRG and @FordFoundation at #SkollWF- the always brilliant @aeyakuze ...on positive vs negative agency. We as citizens can't be lulled by autocrats into thinking they will deliver- they won't. We need to exercise our agency to ensure #accountability.

🎙🤔 Fariha, Tamima, and Manish all had some questions.

Fariha wants to know why young... people should not be front and center of climate policy when they will be most affected by climate change.

Tamima explores how survivors of gender-based violence can be better supported.

Manish asks how civic leadership and anti-corruption values can be instilled in society from earlier on so that by the time children are responsible for running society, they fully embody a culture of accountability.

These passionate young changemakers have a range of answers to these questions, so if you've been asking them yourself, give them a listen on our latest podcast episode: https://spoti.fi/3TQOFEz
