Maya
Ajmera and Greg Fields provide the architecture of a new perspective on the
global agenda for children, based on a new global web of relationships stemming
from the community level. Arguing that
the existing global agenda for children has failed, this book reimagines how
society can support the world's most vulnerable children. In doing so, Invisible Children identifies and gives voice to the millions of
children globally living on society's margins, while showing a way forward as
to how we can best invest in children.
Maya Ajmera is currently President and CEO of the Society for Science & the Public, and Publisher of Science News. She is a professorial lecturer at the Paul H. Nitze School for Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University, USA, and a Henry Crown Fellow at the Aspen Institute. She founded and led for 18 years The Global Fund for Children that invests in innovative community based organizations serving the most vulnerable young people in the world.
