Podcast by Bond looking at the varied roles of private sector finance and private sector led development in reaching the sustainable development goals. With guest speakers from the Overseas Development Institute, Christian Aid, and Tradecraft Exchange, the conversation calls for a reimagining of the private sector in context of changing political climates. As the Independent Commission on Aid Impact report showed, the U.K Department for International Development’s approach to delivering programs through the private sector requires policy frameworks for making sure that investments have positive redistributive effects. An intelligent and nuanced debate, which shows that all too often distinctions between private finance for development and private sector-led development are misunderstood.
