Mette Walsted Vestergaard lectures:
Lecture 1: Why do we need foreign aid?
On several trips around in both West and East Africa, I visited the recipients of the money the Danes each year generously donates foreign projects, including in connection with Denmark Collection. From Batwa people live (one pygmy tribe that until a few years ago lived as hunter-gatherer people) without rights in Uganda for surgical retrained paramedics in Mozambique’s rural areas. The trips raises many questions: Why do we need donations? Why do we give them? Is there any point?
Lecture 2: What is charisma?
Why burn some people through, while others seemingly always wearing clothes that matched the wallpaper? What are the x-factor (s) actually in. Learn about what voice, pitch, articulation, pauses and body language does to a person’s appearance.
