Norsk bistand uten kompass
Kvinner på vei til markedet i Mosambik. – Jobbskaping må komme fattige hushold til gode, ulikhetsarbeid må styrke de mest marginaliserte, og demokratiarbeid må gi fattige større innflytelse over egne livsvilkår, skriver artikkelforfatteren. Meninger: Dersom regjeringens utviklingspolitiske reform Vendepunkt skal bli mer enn nok en omorganisering av norsk bistand, må den forholde seg til et grunnleggende problem: at norsk bistand ikke lenger har et klart svar på hva den egentlig er til for.
Norsk bistand svikter sitt eget mål om fattigdomsreduksjon
Dette er et debattinnlegg. Meninger i teksten er skribentens egne. Innleggene i bistandsdebatten tar som regel ikke fattigdomsreduksjon – bistandens hovedmål – som utgangspunkt. Det er bekymringsfullt. Bistanden risikerer å bli oppfattet først og fremst som et utenrikspolitisk verktøy for å forebygge konflikt og håndtere globale utfordringer som kan berøre Norge. Den moralske forpliktelsen og solidariteten som burde ligge til grunn, trer i bakgrunnen.
Mozambique Case Study Shows That Poverty Is about Much More than Income
What does it mean to be poor? On the face of it, this may not sound like a very difficult question. In developed countries, almost all official and everyday definitions refer to poverty in income terms. In this sense, low consumption power (income) and poverty are essentially synonymous. Outside of developed countries, a similar view of poverty frequently gets headlines. In its global comparisons, the World Bank has adopted the (in)famous poverty line of US$1.90 a day.
