IIED's video: Make Change Happen 18: Uncomfortable conversations Confronting development s White gaze

In this episode of Make Change Happen, we explore how development organisations have responded to the Black Lives Matter movement, with a particular focus on language and narratives. Hosted by Liz Carlile, IIED’s outgoing director of communications, this episode features Natalie Lartey, IIED’s advocacy and engagement manager; Maryam Mohsin, head of media and communications at Bond; and Mpho Tapela, executive director of Youth Unlimited Network in Botswana. They discuss racism and decolonisation in development and the intentions set out by organisations to move towards becoming anti-racist.
