Looking Back, Leading Forward - An Oral History of Gender, Women, and Democracy at NDI

Resources

"Looking Back, Leading Forward" documents the development and evolution of NDI's Gender, Women and Democracy Team and related work in order to ensure that decades of knowledge and learning in this sector are preserved and may serve as a resource to inform future programming. This oral history comprises 25 in-depth interviews of gender champions within the organization and chronicles both internal and external factors that propelled gender, women and democracy work forward at NDI and helped institutionalize a gender lens across programming more broadly, while the team’s groundbreaking initiatives like iKNOWPolitics, #NotTheCost, Win With Women, and Men, Power & Politics pushed both NDI and the broader field forward.
