What Can the U.S. Learn About Development From Norway?

Are global development models fit for purpose? As traditional development frameworks face unprecedented strain, the moment requires a hard look at what works, what is missing, and whose voices must guide the reimagining of development systems.  

Please join the Global Development Department on September 29 at 9:00AM ET for The Opportunity Horizon to explore how aid architecture must adapt to meet modern realities. In this episode, Enoh T. Ebong hosts Nikolai Henrik Wold Hegertun, Policy Director at the Norwegian Agency for International Development (NORAD), to examine how global development has fundamentally shifted, why old aid models are falling short, and how countries can move from charity toward true mutual interest. They discuss how volatile geopolitical tensions and shrinking official development assistance require a more targeted, resilient approach to modern cooperation.
