Activity 9: International Aid

  • Think about an aid organization (NGO, charity, UN…).
  • How do you perceive it?
  • How did you learn about it? (TV ad? Student organisation? Academic literature?)
  • How does it differ from other organisations? (Government programs, private enterprise…)
  • What effects do you think this organisation can have?
