従来型の慈善活動は、実際には、貧困に苦しむ人々からお金を奪っているのでしょうか。多数のグローバル開発プロジェクトが、貧困解決に効果のないプログラムに大量の資金をつぎ込む理由を、英国の元国会議員ローリー・スチュワートが説明します。そして、貧困層に無条件に直接送金する実証済のプログラムが、世界中の極度の貧困を撲滅する鍵になりうると提唱します。

極度の貧困をなくすには — 助言ではなく現金で

Professor, former Member of Parliament, UK

Traditional aid projects often waste resources on bureaucracy and fail to meet basic needs, leaving nearly half a billion people in Africa unable to afford essentials. In contrast, direct cash transfers have transformed entire communities, boosting education, health, and incomes without complex interventions. Evidence shows that people use this money wisely, resulting in a multiplier effect that benefits surrounding villages. Technology now makes it possible to reach those in need efficiently and at scale.
