This years OXFAM scandal brought to light some serious questions for the international development community. At a time when aid agencies and charities are prone to seemingly widespread sexual abuse and impropriety, best-selling author and journalist Antony Loewenstein's new film Disaster Capitalism investigates whether the industry is exploiting development and aid funds to profiteer from growing inequality and poverty.

"Disaster Capitalism is a compelling documentary that goes inside Afghanistan, Haiti and Papua New Guinea to reveal the dark side of moneymakers and aid exploiters unafraid to make a killing from the misfortune of others. Antony Loewenstein joins award-winning film-maker Thor Neureiter on a six-year journey through the world of shady miners, resilient locals and secretive governments."

Following the screening the CIJ is pleased to welcome a panel of experts to discuss the film, and the operations of international development agencies and aid organisations.
