Short biographic note

Ian Goldman qualified in agriculture and worked in Mexico as an agronomist. From 1982-7 he worked on a pioneering district development programme in Zambia (DDSP Mpika), one of the earliest process projects working on developing the capacity of local governments as the primary agents for rural development. From 1988-1995 Ian worked in rural economic development in the UK, rising to Director of the National Rural Enterprise Centre. In 1995 he returned to South Africa as a change management advisor in the restructuring of the Free State Department of Agriculture post the 1994 democratic elections. This was a major transformation process which Ian wrote up for his PhD in 2000. In 1998 Ian established Khanya-managing rural change, a developmental consultancy which has pioneered approaches to sustainable livelihoods and community-driven development in Africa. In 2005 Khanya was transformed into Khanya-African Institute for Community-Driven Development (Khanya-aicdd), and Ian became the first CEO.
