Today, Wednesday, December 22, we share with you 5 reading recommendations from 5 members of our network of collaborators.

A bet for sanity in times of pandemic

Arancha Cejudo, partner at AbreParéntesis and an expert in strategy and innovation, recommends Adela Cortina’s book, Cosmopolitan Ethics: a lucid and accessible analysis of the causes and origins of the problems we face. She raises responses from ethics, sanity, compassion, justice and solidarity.

From where do we listen to the other?

Javier Siedlecki, partner of Zelwa and expert in Storytelling, recommends: A home away from home by the Argentine-Spanish writer: Clara Obligado. Between the essay and the memories, a beautiful reflection on the language, the writing, the way of communicating and the place from which we listen to the other.

A method for problem solving

Carmi Candellero, an expert in visual and creative communication, recommends How are objects born?: Notes for a project methodology, a book that she forged its beginnings by showing that it is impossible to design without method. 13 years later, the project method for solving problems continues to be the pillar of her as a designer.

Learning for the impact of European foundations

Diego Lejarazu, partner of AbreParéntesis and expert in calls and corporate volunteering recommends From measuring impact to learning for impact: The learning paths of European foundations (Esade Entrepreneurship Institute): a roadmap that goes beyond the measurement and that provides real examples of donor foundations.

How would we live if the Incas had conquered Europe?

Vanessa Lecointre, promoter of ANQAS and expert in fundraising and strategy, recommends the book Civilizations by Laurent Binet, a fiction book that contains a deep reflection on the traces we leave in the past, the imperfection and ambition of the human being and the world that we have built.

Until next Wednesday!
