The second one, with sustainability practitioner P. S. Narayan, deals with larger questions about what it means to fail and succeed in the social sector. Both, independently, and when read together, may deepen our understanding of education and social action by showing us what is involved in intervening in a reflexive manner, and what it means to succeed and fail. Hope you find this issue of the journal of use, in thinking about this important aspect which we all must deal with.
