This brilliant satire of international development by “@omarsMDGs” deserves to be more widely read. It’s funny, incisive and uncomfortable - which means that it hits at the truth. Worth at least 5 Escobars mdgcomics.com/phdcomic/

"a vivid portrait of the complex #mzungu ecosystem - unpaid interns, voluntourists, consultants, academics, new-age nomads, journalists, influencers. Their professional hypermobility is a ‘ritual used to keep a system of power in place… ’. via @RoutedM routedmagazine.com/mdgs-review-mz…

"The irony.. when hypermobile consultants are hired to work on progs to deter the migration of others, reinforcing border control agencies or upskilling local workers just enough so that their training will not allow them to apply for jobs abroad." @RoutedM on #MDGcomics

This, by @omarsMDGs, is something I think about constantly - how wazungu's escape plans can serve as the ultimate escape from responsibility. Ultimately an "Africa is fun for a few years" mentality, in place of solidarity and deep commitment.
