The 3rd Annual Development Week Dialogue Plettenberg Bay (Bitou Municipality – Western Cape) 11-14 October 2010
“Making Poverty History: Leveraging Communities for Poverty Eradication”

In pursuit of its vision of becoming a leading knowledge-based development agency in the country, the Independent Development Trust (IDT) is hosting its third Development Week in Plettenberg Bay (Bitou Municipality in the Western Cape). The main objective of the Development Week is to find solutions to address the challenges of intergenerational poverty, inequality and under-development in South Africa.
The Development Week serves as a participatory platform for a strategic dialogue between development practioners, academics, political and traditional leaders, business and community members. The event offers a rare and invaluable opportunity to deliberate, exchange ideas and share lessons.
