In this episode, we analyze a compelling article that critiques the language used to classify countries and people in global health and development. The authors argue that terms like "developed/developing," "rich/poor," and even "Global North/South" are rooted in colonialist and racist ideologies, perpetuating harmful hierarchies and obscuring the complex realities of global inequality. We discuss how these labels reinforce Western dominance while marginalizing the knowledge and experiences of other cultures. The authors propose a shift in terminology and mindset, advocating for a more equitable and inclusive approach that moves beyond the "savior" mentality.
