CAMA (CAMFED alumnae network) Governance Report

This report, released in early 2019, is authored by Diana Good, Specialist Adviser to the International Development Committee of the UK Parliament, and former Commissioner of the Independent Commission for Aid Impact. Diana is also one of the original authors of the seminal report on CAMFED’s governance model, ‘Accounting to the Girl,' published in 2010 by Linklaters. In Diana’s words, “This powerful movement of young women [CAMA] is a passionate, innovative, challenging and unstoppable force. They, who were the most disadvantaged, are now the leaders of change.”
