Assessment 1: Critical Review

Discussion Paper Overview This work is a critical review of the central concepts of development, equality, equity, sustainability, disadvantage, vulnerability and need as they pertain to the principle of ‘Do No Harm’ in interventions for Development. These concepts have often been misunderstood and misused such that those who are the recipients of policies, programs – interventions – for Development have become their victims (albeit unintended). As such, students will show their understanding of the principle of ‘Do No Harm’ as it manifests in interventions for Development.
