NGO-led adult education/learning and development/politicization (service provision and/or social activism work).
10-12 page (excluding references) critical-analytical paper  (one of the three given below)
(i)utilizing McEwan and Wilson readings (and related others—postcolonial analysis), how are DNGOs (e.g. World Vision, CARE, Save the Children etc.) reproducing racism/development racism vis-à-vis discourse/representation and/or programs/practices, including their educational work (this includes “public/donor education” for fundraising) while perpetuating silence (or ignorance) pertaining to neo/colonial dispossession/exploitation/oppression in these regions and the active development of underdevelopment proposition (North-South axis)?
(ii)utilizing neo/colonial analysis (e.g. Langan, Rist, Rodney, War on Want/Hunger Games etc.), how are NGOs engaged in extending colonial relations/dispossession and exploitation in the name of aid/development work? And/or racial/capitalist neo/Marxist critiques (e.g. Petras, Kundnani, Leech, Choudry, Kapoor etc.) and the suggestion that big NGOs are reproducing racialized accumulation by dispossession (ABD) (social relations of capitalism) in the rural/urban periphery? What might all this mean for the role of NGOs in relation to movements of the dispossessed/displaced/exploited and oppressed and in a general when it comes to “development work” (North-South)?
(iii) utilizing the NGOization of social movements critique (e.g. Jad, Choudry & Kapoor or see Sonia Alvarez’s work in South America on the same), speak to how NGOs sometimes work to de-politicize (antipolitics machine) social movements of the exploited and dispossessed.
