Dear Mr. Branea: My name is Leyla Moore, and I am an American postgraduate student at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. I received your E-mail address from Marie Louise Paulesc who suggested that I contact you regarding a recent post I made to the We_love_Romania Yahoo! group. If you can offer any suggestions or insights, or perhaps post this on the Romania_EU list, I would really appreciate it. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Leyla Moore Here is the post: I'm curious, for the purposes of my dissertation, how Romanians in the group feel about the U.S. Agency for International Development's work in Romania. I don't know if anyone in the group has had direct experience with them, or with other international organizations working in Romania. Specifically, I've come across a lot of stuff saying that Communism was a major contributor to Romanians not trusting foreigners, or outside development groups. I've read that this lack of trust can also be a major problems in getting Romanian nonprofits to cooperate with each other. I wonder how true these ideas are and if anyone has any comments on them. Also, I wonder how Romanians in the group feel about how much groups like USAID have actually involved Romanians in their work, how well they've really sought to get Romanians to participate in their projects. Since I'm asking these things for my dissertation, I must say that no one will be specifically identified, all answers will remain anonymous and confidential. Since I'm asking for my own curiosity as well, I'll say thank you for anything said and for helping me to understand things a bit outside of the textbooks.
