Global development matters

The Center for Global Development – the publisher of the Commitment to Development Index (CDI), which ranks 21 richest countries on their policies' effect on poor countries - launched Global Development Matters.

The new site, designed with the U.S. audience primarily in mind, has five new short videos on the topics ranging from health issues to global trade and subsidies. Microfinance video below:

Thanks for mentioning the “Global Development Matters” website and our Election ’08 blog. The short films on the site are repurposed from a European documentary series called “A Dollar A Day.” The Center for Global Development will be releasing the full-length films to the US shortly, so you can dig deeper into the stories—there will also be opportunities to host screenings if you’re interested. (We’ll make an announcement on the website and to our newsletter list). Thanks again!
