During my time in Zambia, I briefly toyed with the idea of an online video project. Well, someone has actually done it, and done a good job of it at that. Tori Hogan, an international-aid-worker-turned-documentary-filmmaker is the creator of Beyond Good Intentions is an innovative 10-part online documentary series that asks tough questions about international aid and sustainable development.
All the episodes are great, but I was particularly interested in episode seven, which explores the innovative work of the organization Bush Proof, a company that uses bottom of the pyramid marketing to provide sustainable, eco-friendly products to the world’s poor. Watch the video below, then head on over to Beyond Good Intentions to view the rest.
