Classification for Critical Concerns

A new initiative from CED

Critical Concerns, is a monthly selection of articles and clippings from newspapers, journals and other sources for NGOs, Social Activists and persons concerned with social change.

The service provides critical update on development matters of justice, peace and sustainable futures, which we consider essential for your reference and study. Broadly, these are the issues that are covered in Critical Concerns.
