High stakes as Uganda and the World Bank Negotiate
Program on Negotiation (PON) Film Series presents: "Our Friends at the Bank"
this Thursday
"Our Friends at the Bank" provides an insider's view of high stakes negotiations
between the World Bank and the government of war-torn Uganda. While Ugandans
argue for the need for funds to fight rebel insurgents and improve roads and
infrastructure, the Bank and the IMF favor spending for education. The Ugandans
face crushing debt and political instability as they struggle to negotiate with
a variety of western diplomats and World Bank and IMF representatives.
Film Director Peter Chappell was given unprecedented access, and with "Our
Friends at the Bank," you are at the negotiating table over a 14-month period.
After the PON film showing, Alain Lempereur, HLS Lecturer of the Winter Workshop
in Negotiation and Director of the Institute for Research and Education on
Negotiation in Europe (ESSEC Business School, France), will lead a discussion
with the audience.
Thursday, December 5, 6:30 pm
