Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Progressio Ireland is an international development organisation that works toward "sustainable development and the eradication of poverty in Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East and Asia." Founded in Dublin in 2004, the organisation stresses a "skill-share" approach to development practices, supporting the work of local organisations by providing the tools and education to develop long-term solutions to barriers to sustainable development and resource management in their 10 project countries. Progressio employs "development workers," that work on-site with the local organisations and communities and share their skills. The organisation places an emphasis on continuing education rather than other more short-term solutions to development issues. Progressio aims to provide communities with the skills and knowledge necessary to solve the problems that stand in the way of development and marginalise the poor.
