On September 15th, 2017, archaeologist Lisa Nevett from the University of Michigan met a panel of CIAMS graduate students (Kathleen Garland, Tyler Wolford, Blake Taylor, Danielle Vander Horst, and Sophia Taborski) and faculty (Profs. Caitlin Barrett and Astrid Van Oyen) to discuss two of her works on Classical household archaeology. The first is "Seeking the domus behind the dominus in Roman Pompeii: artifact distributions as eidence for the various social groups," which appeared as the fifth chapter in Prof. Nevett's 2010 book from Cambridge University Press, Domestic Space in Classical Antiquity. The second reading is Ärtifact assemblages in Classical Greek contexts: toward a new approach," which appeared in Household Studies in Complex Society: Micro-Archaeological and Textual Approaches. This volume was published by the University of Chicago Oriental Institute in 2015.

Welcome to Episode 7 of Good Will Hunters! In todays episode I chat with Georgina Camp, the CEO of Huber Social, an innovator bringing a fresh approach to solving complex social challenges. Georgie was introduced to me by Caitlin Barrett, the CEO of Love Mercy Foundation who we had on the show a few weeks ago. Georgie and Caitlin worked together on assessing the impact of the Cents for Seeds Program in Uganda. Georgie’s passion for reinventing the way we measure social value and reconsidering what truly contributes to wellbeing is apparent from the moment she starts speaking! She’s a trail-blazing leader, innovator and thinker and I’m thrilled to introduce you to her today. Georgie and I chat about the importance of measuring social value alongside financial value, and the method Huber Social uses to determine the contribution a product or service makes to an individuals wellbeing. We chat about Amartya Sen’s ‘Capabilities Approach’ and other methodologies for analysing wellbeing, and chat about what the future looks like for the world of impact measurement. It’s an inspiring, technical, thought-provoking discussion. Also, unfortunately we had some technical issues in this discussion which you may pick up on at times! We record via Skype so this is bound to happen occasionally.

Welcome to Episode 5 of Good Will Hunters! This week, I chat with Caitlin Barrett, the CEO of Love Mercy Foundation, a tremendous organisation doing groundbreaking work in Uganda. We talk about the challenges of operating an NGO in Northern Uganda, building sustainable livelihoods, providing high quality healthcare at a low cost, accessing markets and much more. War ravaged Uganda has it’s fair share of development challenges. This is most evident in the North of the country, where road infrastructure remains poor and communities are disconnected from markets, and experience a lack of formal employment opportunities and a lack of healthcare. Flashback to 2010 - Caitlin and a passionate group of friends entered Uganda with the mission of creating a sustainable program that could improve the lives of those experiencing famine and chronic poverty. Fast forward eight years, and Love Mercy continues to impact the lives of thousands of women and their families through incredible initiatives like the Cents for Seeds Program and the Kristina Health Clinic. It can be so difficult for organisations like Love Mercy to know whether their programs are having the effect they’re deigned to. With some help from the wonderful team at Huber Social, Love Mercy discovered that their Cents for Seeds Program was impacting the lives of the women involved in some phenomenal ways. Obtaining the data wasn’t without its challenges - many of the women involved in the program are illiterate, and finding ways to enable them to engage meaningfully was a hurdle the team had to overcome - and overcome it they did! The longer the woman had been involved with the program, the greater their key development indicators were. So the project continues, and Love Mercy continues to partner with communities and transform their development prospects. How can you sustain a rural health clinic where the clientele pays only a minimal fee? Why is it so important that NGOs commit to long term partnership with communities, but also avoid becoming “part of the furniture”? And where does Love Mercy hope to be by 2020? Find out all this and more in this weeks episode. 2:05 - The origins of Love Mercy Foundation 6:10 - Why operate an NGO in Uganda? 8:35 - Uganda and the African continent 9:30 - Unexpected encounters with communities 12:10 - Success in the Cents for Seeds Program 17:35 - Overcoming the challenge of illiteracy 22:10 - Improving wellbeing through access to water 25:10 - Why NGOs need to commit to staying 28:20 - Sustainable livelihoods through Cents for Seeds 33:11 - The importance of financial literacy 35:12 - Access to markets to buy and sell 37:40 - The effect of civil war on infrastructure development 39:50 - How to sustain a rural health clinic 45:10 - What’s next for Love Mercy?
