In the spirit of the season, we're challenging our readers to make a small (or large) gift to our parent organization, Mercy Corps. Mercy Corps shares Global Envision's belief in the power of global markets to alleviate poverty and employs a market-driven approach to their economic development programs around the world. We've set a symbolic goal of $575 — that's the number of posts we've published on Global Envision since the launch of the blog in April of 2008.
In that time we've written hundreds posts highlighting the economic tie-in on topics ranging from mobile banking to child brides in Yemen. We offered extensive coverage of the global economic crisis and followed how innovation in design is lowering the prices for things like drip irrigation systems, refrigerators and heart surgery in India. We've explained why big business may actually be an ally to the environment.
Please take us up on our challenge and pitch in a few bucks. Thank you for your readership, your comments and your support.
- Chelsea Wieber, Global Envision
