Visitors in Nigeria

Mana Shah of India’s Centre for Civil Society is spending a year in Nigeria, and maintaining a blog about her experiences there, titled Carpe Diem. Take a look. It’s fun and interesting. This week, her husband and CCS founder Parth is visiting her in Nigeria. Together, they will be spending some time with Atlas’s friend, Thompson Ayodele of the Initiative‚ for Public Policy Analysis. I just got an email from Thompson alerting us to his most recent op-ed, published in Nigeria’s The Nation yesterday, on the topic of “The Ilusion of Government Job Creation.”

Also, in my inbox: a former‚ Atlas intern, Bhuvana Anand, who trained at Centre for Civil Society before coming to the U.S. and Atlas, via the Koch Summer Fellows program, is moving from Afghanistan, where she has spent the last few years doing work on privatizations, to southern Sudan for a role with the UN’s Offices of Project Services on infrastructure building projects.
