Sažetak
Sustainable development is the only kind of development possible for help in the
third world. Due to various historical, political, geographic and climatic conditions the
divergence between those countries providing and those receiving help is so vast that donations
of labor an/or money is simply not enough. Rather, communities have to be
taught to support and develop themselves during the receipt of aid and especially after
the help pulls out. It is our goal in this article to summarize one such »sustainable development
« project. As volunteers for AMREF (African Medical and Research Foundation),
we worked with the remarkable Makueni Applied Nutrition Project in eastern
Kenya in the summer of 2001. Our job was to visit the various locations in this semiarid
and arid environment and to write a report on the situation of the diverse parts of
the project. The Applied Nutrition Project (ANP) started in 1984 and serves as an excellent
example of the significant help that can be provided to needy areas of the world with
a multifaceted approach.
