giving what we can
Debate, New in Ceasefire - Thursday, November 24, 2011 5:31 - 3 Comments
Debate | Helping the poor…by getting rich: ingenious or delusional?

What would be better: to work as a highly-paid banker so you can give more money to charity, or to take up a lower-paid job in an NGO, so you can help others directly? Aveek Bhattacharya, of 'Giving What We Can', and Puneet Dhaliwal, of War on Want, take sides in a thought-provoking debate introduced by deputy editor Musab Younis.
