Introduction
Aid is the best way to support a developing or a struggling community. However, the lack of better strategies and to solve the underlying problem causes chaos and achievement of opposite results from the intended ones. In the video, Author Theodore Dalrymple states that a compassionate person must consider the practical effect of whatever he or she intends to do even before starting an aid project. Most of the aids projects crush local economies and small businesses that are on the verge of breaking even causing the closure of the companies.
I agree with the theme of these videos that our dignity and human value is related to our capacity to be creative and productive. This virtue helps us think outside the box and device ways and methods to solve our underlying issues. Aid should be utilized in innovations and tailor-made problem-solving tools incubation. Foreign should be put into small business loans to allow them to address the current nation’s problems.
Rwandese President Paul Kagame has made a positive impression on me by differentiating the useful aid and inadequate aid. He describes excellent assistance as a driver to the success of a countries population and that it comes to help people be dependent on themselves after being able to repay the aid. Aid should be provided to the developing communities to develop a self-sustaining society rather than burden a population after subsidies have been given out.
