The
'old-fashioned' image limits acceptance
|
| People (particularly
the young) often perceive non-motorised transport as 'old-fashioned'.
This damaging view also exists among politicians and within development
agencies. Human and animal power will always have appropriate and
valuable transport applications, and their modern relevance must be
acknowledged and promoted. |

Wheelwright in Mexico
|
|
This wheelwright in Mexico had learned his skills from his father
and grandfather. He wanted his son to take over the family business.
His son thought that making cartwheels was old-fashioned and he went
into telecommunications instead. The workshop will close. |
