Expertise

How can business develop and implement strategies to serve the basic needs of the poor? Without stretching the limits of our natural environment? Based on solid economic approaches?

To answer these questions, I link sound economic and strategy thinking and experience in applied sustainable development to come up with practical, hands-on approaches to promote human development.
