Why Development Projects Fail: One Size Does Not Fit All | Special English | Learning English

Why Development Projects Fail: One Size Does Not Fit All | Special English | Learning English: "Last week we told you about FAILFaire, an event where people talk about international development projects that failed.

Many of these projects started as good ideas. Others had some level of success, but not enough to have a measurable effect on the lives of people in developing countries.

A nonprofit group in New York called MobileActive held the first FAILFaire earlier this year. MobileActive is made up of people and organizations that use technology to try to improve the lives of the poor."
