Aid resources in Afghanistan and Haiti have frequently been horded and controlled, I've heard of similar situations occurring in Africa. In many instances the local population isn't even aware that anything was sent at all. I am with HF in thinking that people are inherently good, but I also believe that power corrupts. I don't for a moment think that we should do nothing... but we do need to be very careful about which specific individuals we empower. The wisdom to make those decisions can…

My favorite part about EVOKE is that it forces me to ask questions that I wouldn't normally ask. This is such an amazing and important part of the process! +1 knowledge share for giving me some questions to think about also.
