Great article—love Mauricio Miller, bricolage, communities, the important of "lived experience." In that context, see critique of big INGO leadership in this article: "Call me romantic, but at least in my experience many of the NGO leaders of years ago had stronger international development credentials. Many had lived and worked in different countries and maybe in actual low-income settings. But more recently some have been replaced by executives from unrelated sectors like the credit card and pharmaceutical industries, or mega-companies like nilever." https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/transformation/whats-killing-us-in-international-ngos/
