Mission Possible or Improbable? Depends on the Approach

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." ~ Albert Eintstein

Solution for the poverty and turmoil in Africa?

My personal belief after months of research: investing in and promoting Non-governmental Organizations (NGO's) that empower the people to solve their own problems locally according to the region's unique culture, social norms, mores, customs, and values, not according to those of a wealthy, overfed country. Feed a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and help him to make nets and fishing poles, you feed him for a life time. Help to educate his sons and daughters, and his grandsons and grandaughters will change the world.
