'The INGO Problem is a must-read for international development leaders who have ever wondered how a system that can seem rigid and outdated can better serve civil society. Deborah draws upon her decades of experience to share a critical look at the global INGO landscape and offers an ambitious vision to overcome many of the structural inequities hardwired into the system.' Darren Walker, OBE, President of the Ford Foundation 'This book is a powerful, timely and brutal critique of how the INGOs show-up in the world. Deborah Doane in this book asks deeply critical but crucial questions of INGOs. I would recommend this book to every person who works with INGOs or inhabits that space, particularly the Boards and leadership of the INGO organisations and spaces. If INGOs want to travel the path of radical transformation for reimagining their future, they would need to earnestly engage with these tough conversations raised in the book.' Amitabh Behar Acting ED of Oxfam International and former ED of Oxfam India 'This book is a timely reminder that we have waited long enough for the transformative changes we need in how international aid and development are designed and coordinated. Deborah Doane makes a strong call to address barriers that prevent global agencies, governments and donors from delivering on commitments that recognize, enable and resource diverse local civil society groups as key development actors in their own right.' Lysa John, Secretary-General of CIVICUS
