20 minutes/Grades 9-Adult
Produced by Aspire Films in association with Triune Productions
This is a film that is designed to stimulate discussion about
the effectiveness of international development programs. It
tackles five vitally important questions. Can development succeed
in the absence of social justice? Does the scale of a project
determine its effectiveness? Who is accountable to whom in
effective development? Are development education and fundraising
compatible? How do we evaluate the effectiveness of development?
The participants represent Canadian governmental and non-
governmental organizations, and the questions they raise are
fundamental for everyone concerned with development programs and
easing international tensions between the industrialized and
developing nations. With Teacher's Guide.
- "An impressive and sincere effort in arriving at a
comprehensive yet a workable definition of development... could be
used in advanced high school classes and undergraduate courses in
economics, sociology, international relations, geography, and
public administration. In all, a worthwhile effort in terms of
viewer's time and money." Choice
- "An absorbing film that will stimulate those concerned about
the quality and outcomes of projects to aid the developing world."
