NB's Chapel Hill NC correspondent, Jacob Kramer-Duffield [1], has sent an interesting job posting [2] our way. Jake, a former sometime WRI staffer, and now a PhD student at UNC's School of Information and Library Science, keeps close tabs on the goings-on at Google. Google.org, the company's hybrid NGO/for-profit philanthropy/investment facility, is seeking candidates [3] for their Global Poverty & Sustainable Development programs. As Google describes it, the new team will work "to innovate, establish and support sustainable models for global development" using "market-based, entrepreneurial approaches that promote sustainable economic growth and empowerment." It is a "poverty alleviation strategy" combined with an active "portfolio of grants and investments."
