Walden Bello - Filipino academic and activist
Today on Earth Matters we hear excerpts from Walden Bello, Filipino
academic and activist speaking at the Australian Council for Overseas Aid's
(ACFOA) conference - "Development Challenges in the Global Economy". Walden
is Executive Director of Focus on the Global South, a research insititute
based in Bangkok, Thailand, and Chairman of the Board of Greenpeace in
South-east Asia.=20
Walden addresses the issue of legitimacy of organisations such as the
International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the World Trade
Organisation and questions the ability to "reform" such instititutions. He
also raises concerns regarding the United Nations involvement with
multinational corporations, as well as non-government organisations.
