Development: Building and Improving the Capital City of El Salvador

If you drive by Multiplaza, one of our centro comerciales (commercial centers or malls), you see that across the street is one of the more dangerous and poor communities in San Salvador. I think this view shows that development needs to be aware of how all people can benefit, rather than only some. 

I’ll leave you with these two questions to discuss with your classmates so you can think more about what development means to you.

  • In your city, who is development benefitting?
  • What is the ultimate goal of development and growth? 

I hope we can talk about these questions on our first video call soon!
