By Becky Slater Rossi – A few weeks back, I was fortunate to attend a fantastic event in Ottawa at the beautiful Delegation of the Ismaili Imamat, a secular facility that offers a centre for building relationships, disseminating knowledge and information, and reflecting on humanitarian issues. Attended by over 120 participants both online and offline, the evening represented the official launch of the Aga Khan Foundation Canada’s (AKFC) seminar series on Innovative Financing for Development.
Hosted in partnership with Carleton University’s School of Public Policy and Administration (SPPA), the series is designed to explore different strategies for financing development that complement (more on this below!) traditional donor-based initiatives.
