UCF students watch documentary discuss development aid
March 14, 2016
On February 25, 2016, the Global Order Team Freiburg invited interested fellow students to an event on the topic of development aid. After watching a documentary on the issue, we had a long and very insightful discussion. With around 30 students present, some of whom have had first-hand experience as volunteer workers in developing countries, the discussion revolved around three main questions: What should be the aim of development aid, and to what extent can or should effective aid be reconciled with respect for local traditions? Should development aid target the poorest and most marginalized segements of a society, or rather the middle class with its potential to spur economic growth? And finally, how can conflicts of interest that stand in the way of effectively addressing the root causes of poverty and underdevelopment, be resolved in the multi-billion dollar development industry? We thank all participants for their active engagement with this exceedingly complex topic, and are confident that we all left the discussion with a more nuanced view of what development aid is about and where the pitfalls lie. For those of our followers who are likewise interested in the topic, we recommend the documentary "What are we doing here?" (watch it here) and invite you to reflect upon the above questions!
