TED Talks with Tara Winkler

Could it be wrong to help children in need by starting an orphanage? In this eye-opening talk with Tara Winkler, Founder of Cambodian Children’s Trust, she talks about the bad consequences of good intentions. Speaking out against the spread of orphanages in developing countries, caused in part by foreign donors, Tara details the harm done to children when they are separated from their families and left to grow up in institutions.
