Sustainability is crucial for all institutions involved in international development. This book offers much-needed practical guidance on how to achieve it. There are 3 main kinds of sustainability and a section of the book is devoted to each: 1. Making the impact of the organization's work sustainable. 2. Ensuring continuity of Funding. 3. Making the organization itself sustainable to remain viable. Achieving all three creates a virtuous spiral. The book is distinctive in taking an organizational rather than technical or impact-based approach to sustainability. It is based on very extensive international research and offers many practical examples of sustainability and the difficult trade-offs involved
