Développement dirigé localement Transfert de pouvoir Formation et directives Guide pratique sur le développement dirigé localement Video recording: Practitioner insights from cohort participants on their locally-led development journeys / Resource Centre / Transfert de pouvoir / Guide pratique sur le développement dirigé localement About the Resource From Intention to Action synthesizes the insights, strategies, peer exchanges, and promising practices from five sessions of collective learning into actionable guidance for organizations working toward locally-led development. It is aimed primarily at Global North–based intermediary organizations—whether NGOs, consulting firms, funders, or faith-based organizations—that hold power in the development system and are seeking concrete ways to shift it toward local actors. About the Learning Journey Bridging the Gap Between Communities and Funders in Locally-Led Development brought together a cohort of Canadian international development practitioners for five interactive virtual sessions from February to April 2026. Together, participants explored how to shift power, navigate donor expectations, and design programs that genuinely centre community leadership—and co-created this resource to share their learning more broadly.
