Alistair Cameron from Hearts for Hue led a discussion at CKC offices about Development Studies. This is the third of a regular series of discussions on subjects that are relevant for Hue NGOs that CKC has organised in collaboration with other organisations.
At the sharing, we questioned if humanitarian aid is better delivered as ‘cash transfers’ rather than traditional aid ‘projects’. We also looked at the politics of education and how we can move on from achieving 100% literacy rates to focusing on the quality of education.
