08 Feb 10: Practical cases of international projects: how local communities have participated?

The presentations by Helena Sandman (architect), Peter Kuria (NGO, Shalin ry) and Mika Skarp (NSN) were interesting, informative and educative. Peter's presentation on foreign aid was the most interesting since that is the order of the day. Institutions that offer foreign aid to developing countries always have selfish interests and at the long run, worsen the plight of those countries. This is all because of politics and there is politics everywhere, even in the bedroom.
