Why should you be interested in a new blog on activism, influencing and change?

Duncan Green introduces a new LSE blog and work programme. He explores its origins in his previous work at Oxfam on activism and ‘how change happens’. He argues that, while influencing the wider system has become increasingly prominent in the work of international organizations, NGOs and others, it remains under-researched and under-theorized. The new programme aims to help fill the gap through a combination of research, training and conversations on this blog.
