Project "Development"

Project Description

Help people in less developed countries to develop; to escape from famine, disease, poverty etc. May involve donation of food, medicine, tools etc, and establishment of schools, hospitals, intermediate-technology workplaces.

Project Cost

High. Will involve many trips overseas, fundraising, co-ordination with governmental and non-governmental organisations, a significant amount of research into intermediate technology, and dedication and perseverance in the face of personal danger (disease etc) and generally traumatic conditions. Probably an unfeasibly difficult a task for an individual.

Utility value

Of great value to those people who's lives are improved by it. Care must be taken to ensure that the development does not repeat the mistakes of the currently developed countries - in producing pollution, devestating the local environment, and institutionalising cruelty to animals.
