What: "Failed Promises"

Who: Carol Bellamy, President and CEO of World Learning & former
Executive Director of UNICEF in conversation with Elizabeth
Farnsworth, Special Correspondent for the NewsHour with Jim Lehrer

Event: "When one-half of the world's children are growing up hungry
and unhealthy, Bellamy says, (and) when whole villages are being
emptied by AIDS, we've failed to deliver on the promise of
childhood." Why? What have been the successes and failures of
organizations working to improve the lives of the world's children?
How is HIV/AIDS undoing even the successful programs? Bellamy
reflects on what she has learned over 4 decades of work on behalf of
children.
