The CI Vision
A New Paradigm For Sustainable Development
Around the world, traditional models for development have proven inadequate and, in many cases, even counter-productive. CI is working to bring a new approach to social and economic development.
Traditional Models:
• Government-focused aid
• Foreign experts
• Donor driven
• Single-source funding
• GNP defined growth
• Lack of sustainability when aid stops
• Corruption-prone management
The CI Approach:
• Multi-Party Collaboration
• Local capacity building
• Community driven
• Collaborative funding
• Economic “ecology”
• Long-term self-sufficiency
• Transparent management
