Harvard i-lab | "A Debate: Business is Essential to Effectively Deliver Public Services to the Poor"
Published 2 days, 5 hours ago
Description
HKS Professor Lant Prichett and HBS Professor Michael Chu debated the most effective mechanisms to alleviate poverty in a debate moderated by The Fletcher School's Nicholas P. Sullivan. The emerging social finance space and other market-based solutions were challenged by more traditional philanthropic approaches to solve poverty. This debate offered a great cross-campus initiative that enhanced a broader understanding of the current "hot topics" around how the Business and the International Development players can work together in addressing services delivery barriers to the poor.
