Mercy Corps to become Prosper Global

Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, CEO of Prosper Global (formerly Mercy Corps), joins Devex President and Editor-in-Chief Raj Kumar to discuss the organization's rebranding and its evolution within the modern humanitarian landscape. McKenna explains how moving away from the “Mercy Corps” name provides greater clarity regarding the organization’s universal values and role as partners, conveners, and investors in local communities. The conversation explores the shift toward localization and decolonization in international aid, the impact of changing global funding structures, and how Prosper Global is adapting its business model to empower communities in a rapidly changing world.
