*These case studies were developed as part of the Leadership Development Program (LDP) curriculum, with the objective of enabling LDP participants to examine issues in such a way as to facilitate and deepen their understanding of concepts and theoretical frameworks. It is through these case studies (and the capacity to apply the concepts and frameworks found within them) that participants strengthened their knowledge.
