Bunker Roy : Learning from a barefoot movement

Bunker Roy at TEDGlobal 2011  (transcript)
Learning from a barefoot movement
Summary
In the first place, working and learning must be what the speaker tells us. It means to give something back in your own way, it doesn't need much money and higher skills. However, those have turned into what people earn much money unnoticeably.

The speaker received high education so he had his ways that he could be all, though, he realized that there was a better way that many people in a village more than having high positions in a big city or country.
In fact, in small villages where poor people die of starvation, there are extraordinary knowledge and skills for living better. Those small ideas are not to waste water, to use solar energy, to learn about domestic animals, and so on.

The most important thing is that all people who have no money, who are illiterate, who are elder or children having jobs and who are women opposed studying can learn. The speaker created a school called the Barefoot College where those people can go. They learn and work and solve their living problems with their ways.  Learning what they don't know and then teaching what they learned and experienced. Those must be a skill that helps their communities so the cycle is learning from a barefoot movement.
