Last year the UK government spent £6.8 billion on international aid for the world’s poorest. But over a billion people remain below the poverty line of US $1/day struggling to eat enough to survive. So is this a good use of our taxes? Does our aid really work?
Join Brendan Cox, Special Advisor to the Prime Minister on Africa and International Development, and Liz Ford from The Guardian, responsible for The Guardian’s Katine development project in Uganda, who will be debating this question. The event will be chaired by Paul Bernstein, Managing Director of Absolute Return for Kids (ARK).
In partnership with Tzedek.
