Foreign Policy Magazine: Haiti Doesn’t Need Your Yoga Mat
Take a look at Foreign Policy Magazine's article/slideshow from last week Haiti Doesn't Need Your Yoga Mat which shows examples of well intented charity and aid that ends up delaying development of local economies in Haiti and beyond. These are some good examples of why we need to shift the focus from aid to enterprise. Watch a clip of an interview I did with Partner's Worldwide President Doug Seebeck where he talks about the negative effects of food aid in Haiti.
