TEDx Brussels 2010
Really good talk, she is an excellent and knowledgeable speaker.
Her prediction for China being a great economy wasn't wrong at all
Very good talk! This lady has some very good points and I hope people in key positions will listen! (The video quality and lighting is perfectly alright, by the way!)
It's the an RSA Animates artist :). Some of the TED Talks have a visual correspondent. You can find them on their youtube channel.
Excellent speech.
can't believe i'm only reading this now - really good and interesting. what i've learned from this is that labour; capital & productivity are the factors of production. in my very basic secondary school education we learnt them as land; labour; capital, [sometines] enterprise. only mentioning this given that she says capital is money, so could land be part of capital as well? accepting that enterprise otherwise called management [in my book] is part of labour.
I am so inspired by her intelligence, her understanding of the world, and her ability to clarify complex issues. Our civilisation will gain tremendously if we can understand and replicate the habits and beliefs her parents instilled in her. Western Civilisation has seen a catastrophic decline in education over the last sixty years, and our populations have been shaped into mindless consumers. Only education can prevent a very bleak future.
Dambisia Moyo laat heel duidelijk zien dat ondanks de goede bedoelingen van onze politici veel beleidsmaatregelen een averechts effect geven. Ze heeft een heldere blik op recente crises in onze financiële markten. Haar aanklacht tegen onze apathie en gebrek aan daadkracht is sterk en moedig.
Dambiza Darling. Love
I think the videos are a bit dark, no?
(1) We get stuck in our own complexity. The only way is to take decisions with a lack of insight .. error and trial or acting in favor of only a specific group of people (voters, share holders, ..). In a globalised world, this is a receipt for disaster. As long as there are important unintended consequences, in particular at the structural level, we are all in a big trouble. Politicians are showing their limits. They are failing.
I would argue that there is a fourth requirement for growth and that would be intent. An honest and strong desire by the government concerned to do it's true duty to bring up the people involved to a higher standard, of course there is a great deal more to say on this but simply put I think this is the absolute number one of the four requirements.
what is the man writing?
@planetrics yes it is, the lighting is really bad
(2) The growth and debt-based economy can't be sustainable. Companies with more power than countries are a huge problem as well. It's not growth of numbers (GDP, population, ..) that is important but increase of quality (health care, education, well-being, security, environment, ..). Present national strikes, social unrest, .. beware, it's just the beginning!! China can be the largest economy. We are not in the US and US is not EU. I regret she talks only little about EU. Great talk indeed !!
She is correct with her speech.
Who is still watching 2022
ok hes drawing her
She was educated in thd US and the UK at least her tertiary education and lived in the UK and currently lives in New York now. I am sure she has traveled to many countries including China. But I am wondering if she could say and view the same ways about the development and foreign aid if she had studied and lived in China not the UK and the USA. Just curious about it!
Is she actually saying that the U.S. was "underwriting a public good" by fighting in Irak ? Is she calling that policy one of 'openness' ?
politicians, banks, corporations would do this (what she said), but they don't care about anyone but themselves - she should have mentioned the false paradigm of debt instruments and stock market which the elites set-up in the first place.
To help someone to feed, don’t offer them a fish but teach them fishing is the only way to help them help themselves for a lifetime but you offered them a fish it would only help them just for one day.
The West won’t teach you how to fish and make you asking for help all the time.
And we'll charge you interest on the fish you repay us.
@@andrewclemens9105 Meanwhile, the ocean pollution and global warming and overfishing are depleting the number of fish...
whats with the bad weave?
Instead of listening to what she has to say, you are only concerned about weave?
There is something obnoxious about het
@mcthorogood she has the inside story.knowledge brings responsibility.the more you know the greater the responsibility. There is more profit in ignorance.we have grown acustom to lies....sad..... the truth has a disturbing effect.
Can Dambisa do her thing without making mention of China? Why is it so bad that China is progressing? I tell you this - she subscribes to the a zero sum theory without making mention of it. If not why does she have to invite China into her conversation since it is all about the West and how she was lost. It seems she is trying to take back some of China's progress.
She love them, what about u?
Go to Zambia and see WHY she constantly mentions China...Zambia is basically owned by China...
That's the best you could do? Really? The West is falling. The dollar is weak.
she has a self interest in China expanding. Zambia's copper is sold predominately to China.
no she does not
