Dr. Peggy Dulany

Peggy Dulany
Synergos Institute

Peggy Dulany founded the New-York based Synergos Institute in 1986 to develop effective, sustainable and locally based solutions to poverty around the world. Drawing from her experience living and working in Rio de Janeiro as a young woman, she realized that the people most affected by adverse living conditions also have the greatest energy and motivation to solve their problems. The resources they lack are the connections to the economic and political realms where necessary changes can affect whole communities.

Ms. Dulany is an honors graduate of Radcliffe College and holds a Doctorate in Education from Harvard University. She is also Chair of ProVentures, a business development company for Latin America and Southern Africa. She sits on the boards of Cambridge College, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and the Africa-America Institute, among others. She loves to ride, hike and cross-country ski at her home at the J Bar L Ranch in the Centennial Valley, Montana.
