📢 Join us on Monday for the third episode in our series of webinars aimed at assisting ...development organizations considering transitions, including mergers, partnerships, legacy plans, and wind-downs. We’re looking at the legal ramifications for U.S.-based social change organizations navigating operational changes.
Given the USAID stop-work orders, contract and grant cancellations, and shifting international support, many non-profit and civil society organizations have faced tough decisions about how to reorganize. While strategic mergers and partnerships are still relatively rare in this sector, they can protect assets and amplify impact.
That’s why Accountability Lab, Digital Public, and Development Gateway: An Irex Venture (DG), with the support of the International Senior Lawyers Project (ISLP), have put together this webinar series, providing the critical, timely knowledge required to take those first important steps with confidence.
🗓️ Join us on Monday, July 28, from 10am - 11:30am EST for this third webinar.
You’ll hear from Michael Lebovitz, Deepa Menon and Erin Broderick, (Partners at Eversheds Sutherland), plus Sally Ebanoidze and Jameson Joseph (Vice Presidents at Morgan Stanley); with moderation by DG’s COO, Vanessa Goas, and ISLP’s Executive Director, Sara Lulo.

Accountability Lab Pakistan is reimagining governance from the ground up – embedding ...accountability into public institutions, building youth leadership, and designing solutions for the climate and digital age.
In 2024, the team supported government offices to digitize, trained young people to lead on climate action, and worked across South Asia to advance digital democracy. From the streets of Quetta to policy tables in Islamabad, their work put voice, trust, and transparency at the center.

In a recent piece... for the Kettering Foundation’s 'Resilience & Resistance' series, our Global Communications & Marketing Manager, Naseera Noor-Mahomed, explores how the Integrity Icon campaign is reframing public service leadership from Kathmandu to Philadelphia.
The article highlights the 2025 Integrity Icons in Philadelphia – nominated and celebrated not for perfection, but for persistence. These are the teachers, social workers, community advocates, and public officials quietly building trust in systems that too often feel distant or broken.
From a violence interrupter transforming pain into peace to a city official designing services around dignity, these stories are a powerful reminder: integrity isn’t rare, it’s just rarely rewarded.

When ...climate shocks hit home, the crisis becomes personal. In this blog, Momal Nawab, Research Intern at Accountability Lab Pakistan, reflects on the lived impacts of extreme weather from the 2022 floods in Nowshera to the heatwaves and hailstorms of recent years, and the urgent need to rethink agriculture for a warming world.
With over 40% of Pakistan’s labor force dependent on farming, climate change isn’t just an environmental issue; it’s an economic and social one too. Food security, rural livelihoods, and our collective well-being are all at stake.
The blog explores:
🌱 How erratic weather is reshaping farming in Pakistan
🌱 Why empathy and equity must guide climate adaptation
🌱 What climate-smart agriculture and youth leadership can do to build resilience
🌱 How policy reforms can center smallholder farmers
