There are also things that we as consumers can do - try to buy only fair
trade chocolate! If the large and unethical companies notice our changed
behaviour, they will adapt, because they do what the CONSUMER (who BUYS
the product) wants, not what the politicians want...

It was not a civil war
Just one thing, I don't understand why insisiting that violence which
took place in Algeria is a civil war, it was between bloodthirsty
criminals and the whole nation on the other side; whereas civil war is a
conflict between divided groups within a country.

SybilBiogas plant
This is a good empowerment program that reduces the suffering of women
working long distances in search of firewood .It is really important
that every woman in the rural community gets her own biogas plant witout
discrimination between the rich and the poor.

knowlegde for change- identifing community barriers to change
The knowledge to reposition change in the contemporary society requires
that the barriers to change be identified and reeducation and
facilitative strategies be used by change agents .It means therefore
that change agents be able to define community situations in similar
context as the target groups.

networks they form on-line and mostly virtually.

Muslims need a secular state
I agree with the author that understanding langue is paramount in
today’s world. In addition, the use of terminology is one vital tool
that determines who we are and shape our actions once we produced them.
The question here is whether the author had embraced the term
“Secular” first; then...

From the collected learning of the impact assessment 1026/SF-HO

Market stalls and shelters
Dear Shobha,
Thank you for your piece on development knowledges, with many important
insights. The contrast between aid money and bank money is striking
indeed; the flip side of this financial crisis is, however, that the
believe in the "self-regulating market" has been undermined
quite severely.

Between social justice and action
Dear Shobha
What a thoughtful and wise column did you write by blending and adding
to the major themes Paul Hoebink (knowledge and values) and Alan Fowler
(significance of language) addressed in their columns in such a well
devised context of social justice and action.

The article by Shobha Reghuram creatively combines and adds to previous
contributions to the Newsletter by Paul Hoebink and myself. There are

Valuing development knowledges
Dear Shobha,
I just read your note on valuing development knowledges and in between
the lines I could feel pulsing at the same time your deep commitment and
your moral indignation. I like the tone and the content of your piece
– which you could have entitled Conviction in the long haul.
