Out of Poverty: Paul Polak on Practical Problem Solving

"Jet Boat Nepal" is an hour-long documentary about Paul Polak's adventure using a Snake River jet boat on the rivers of Nepal. This video can be downloaded from FlybyFlicks. His objective was to open up markets in India to the Hill People of Nepal by using the swift flowing rivers.  This proved to be quite a challenge!

Great video. I have the book. Paul Polak is one of my mentors though we have never met. I give this video five stars.

Truly inspiring!

The only thing I worry about is the fact that the solutions rely on the supply of water. What happens when the source of the water dries out? The farmers will be poor once again? And what do we do about the poor women and men who live in even drier climates?

However, still looking forward to reading the book and learning more. Simple solutions for big problems!

Truly inspiring. In a world that's speeding up it is wonderful to see an approach to poverty that arises from the ground of listening.

Love your 12 steps highlighted here. Looking forward to reading your book. Thanks very much.

Love the book. Thank you Paul Polak

If we think closely at it, we would realize that the action of giving aid to the poors increase their poverty while educating them about ways to know more about agricultural production let them with better chances of getting out of poverty. Thanks Paul Polak That was a good Book
