Mackenzie Berg (Chintan Environmental Research and Action Group): MacKenzie received her undergraduate degree in cultural anthropology. She then traveled and worked in several developing countries before entering the graduate program at University of Denver. After her fellowship, Mackenzie wrote: "The various opportunities that I had to actually meet, talk to and interact with the waste pickers in their communities were the best for me—this was the most real, the most valuable in terms of information gathered [not just data, but the chance to make observations about sights, smells, emotions, etc, involved with their lives that helped me to understand their points of view and experience]."
Paul has just written a super fabulous post giving a complete run-down of the waste situation here in Delhi, and the system of management [formal and informal] that he and I are learning about, and dealing with.
Check it out! It should help to fill in any gaps in information that I haven’t had a chance to explain yet.
Rock on Paul.
