      This is very imporant to help bring the world together
  • The hope is to solve these problems and begin production of the laptops by late 2006.

      I applaude the effort, but if they can't meat the deadlines they set for themselves more people are going to critisize the project.

    Oxfam international is a confederation of multiple organizations that work together to find solutions to poverty and injustice. They view many of the problems being the result of globalization. The site includes information on their policies, studies, programs and analysis.

    CARE seems like it has some of Easterly's Planner tendencies in that it has some Big Goals
    (and celebrity faces on its homepage) but it seems that many of its methods are more those of searchers in that it gets involved with local families and communities to understand the problems they face and ways that they can help them.

    Grameen was one of the corporate entities that we read about in class.  Instead of using its capital gains to feed the upper managements' pockets, they redristribute the funds back into the peoples' coffers.  This is a REAL, CREATIVE solution to a poverty problem.

    Helping to protect endangered species is another problem that fits in with our assigned topic. This page offers useful advice to how to help species that are suffering. I think this would be a great project for teachers to assign students in elementary classrooms specifically.
