Development Alternatives Global
Development Alternatives Global "founding meeting of DAG was held in December 2006." [1]
"DAG’s parent body, the Society for Development Alternatives (DA), was established in 1982, with headquarters in New Delhi, India. It was inspired by UNCHE and arose out of the experience and work of DA’s founder and president Ashok Khosla during his time in the UN Environment Programme (UNEP)...
"Geneva is the major multilateral centre that welcomes, hosts and assists a large number of international NGOs. It is here that the seminal 1971 Founex Seminar cast the foundations for the holistic and integrated approach to global development and environment which made possible the holding of the 1972 Stockholm Conference and its adopting significant principles and recommendations which continue to be relevant today. (DAG also draws in part on the precedent of IFDA – International Foundation for Development Alternatives – that was established in the aftermath of UNCHE and operated in the Geneva region during the 1970s and 1980s.)"
