What is international development really? | Alanna Shaikh

By Plicatus EN in Uncategorized 2032 views 30th March 2018 Video Duration: 00:06:13

Reduction of poverty, liberation, freedom: all of these words have been used to define international development, but no definition is set in stone. Global development expert and TED Fellow Alanna Shaikh breaks it down for us: It is about providing aid, while understanding that the developing world actually subsidizes the developed world. In this talk she points a light at corruption in an effort towards a more just world.
