OLPD team hosted meeting in Uganda for the UMN Mastercard project

A team from the Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development (OLPD), including Joan DeJaeghere, Nancy Pellowski Wiger, David Chapman, Chris Johnstone, Maurice Sikenyi, and Emily Morris, hosted and led an “all-partners” meeting in Entebbe, Uganda, as part of the University of Minnesota MasterCard project, which is conducting a six-year longitudinal study of the impact of entrepreneurship training programs on the long-term livelihood of economically disadvantaged youth in East Africa. At this meeting, participating NGOs were provided with information on findings of the study to date and assisted in incorporating these findings in their ongoing project activities.
