The Pro-Poor Tourism Partnership comprised Caroline Ashley, Harold Goodwin and Dilys Roe. The PPT Partnership grew out of work we did for DFID from 2001, we had all been involved in different ways in the conception of the idea - see the list of resources for details. We are still in contact with each other but have no jointly funded work.

Caroline Ashley was a Research Fellow at the Overseas Development Institute (1998-2009) when she was actively engaged in the PPT Partnership. Since 2010 Caroline has been working on a number of initiatives including Learnings and Results Manager supporting the development of inclusive business models in Zambia, Malawi, Nigeria, India and Bangladesh, through a DFID-funded 3 year pilot project. Assisting companies to identify and deliver their key performance indicators for inclusive business initiatives, monitoring the progress and results, drawing out insights and lessons to share with other practitioners.
