The Leitrim Observer

The link in the title is to an article I've had published in the Leitrim Observer this week (local Irish paper with a small readership of around 30,000). I'm very grateful to them for supporting my proposal to print at least four or five articles over the course of the year. Each article will focus on a particular development issue and apart from being an interesting exercise in itself, it is also part of my VSO 'Global Education Project' which I will develop in more detail over the next few months. Any views/tips/criticisms on this article and future articles would be greatly appreciated.
