This eye-opening documentary explores how massive international efforts to alleviate poverty in Africa may be undermining the communities they are intended to benefit. In Kenya's countryside, Jackson Omondi's farm is being flooded by an Oklahoma-based company that wants to develop Kenya's economy by creating a $21 million rice farm. Across the country in Nairobi, both the home and midwifery practice of Silva Adhiambo in Africa's largest shantytown, Kibera, are being demolished as part of a U.N. slum upgrading project. The gripping stories of these two Kenyans fighting to save their homes from large-scale development offer a unique opportunity to see foreign aid through the eyes of the people it is intended to help.

This event is an approved INCIGHT co-curricular and Public Health Grand Rounds activity.
