"Have Your Say" |
*
08 Sep 2010 Is this the best way to preserve world monuments? Companies will be asked to offer at least $25 million for restoration in return for being allowed to use the Colosseum for advertising. However, some critics fear the building could be covered in advertising hoardings in a clash between culture and commercialism. Do you agree with the Italian government's plans? Could commerce be a corrupting force for heritage? What other world landmarks would you like to see sponsored? |

* 01 Sep 2010 * Should Africa look to the stars? Africa is one step closer to setting up its own space agency after AU ministers approved a feasibility study to develop an 'African Space Agency'. The idea is to draft a common space policy which - some say - would aid development and help Africa overcome many of its challenges. But should Africa really be pouring its limited resources into space technology when some governments can barely provide for their own people and natural disasters ravage the continent? And if so, is it better for each country to develop its own space initiatives rather than work together? What would be the benefits of a space agency to Africa? Is it worth the cost? Should such research be left to more prosperous continents? |
