"What some have called a “new geography of poverty” poses fundamental questions for the future of international aid and development.
These new times demand not old orthodoxies, but new responses, grounded in a fundamental belief in justice and universal human rights.
It is easy for politicians to say that, since India has a space programme, we should have no concern for the millions of Indians still living in abject poverty, or indeed those in any emerging middle income country. The reality is, of course, far more complex."
