Revision history [back]
Hello all and thank you for your comments.
I have to confess, as an Engineer I pretty much agree with you all about asking lay-people to get involved. E.g. it's not a very good idea.
Equally, I am interested in Aios Nando's 80/20 rule and comparison with training local women to deliver babies in remote areas.
One thing I am sure of is that Engineers need to be more embedded in aid organisations and government...we have so much to contribute. We can solve problems from first principles, design and build infra-structure, and think of appropriate alternatives.
