Adaptive management

This report was written by Michael O’Donnell. The report builds upon the contributions of many people at a series of three events on adaptive development, co-hosted by Bond and the DFID PPA Learning Partnership between July and December 2015; in addition to the many publications listed in the bibliography. It also draws upon observations from Bond’s engagement in its effectiveness programme with over 400 CSOs and multiple funders in recent years, and personal conversations and correspondence with leading thinkers and practitioners on adaptive management.
