Many people don't understand poverty or what it is and so many people don't bother to help. Hopefully the people who don't understand poverty, will be able to help after reading this blog.
These are some quotes and pictures about poverty that i found:
Poverty is hunger. Poverty is lack of shelter. Poverty is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. Poverty is not having access to school and not knowing how to read. Poverty is not having a job, is fear for the future, living one day at a time. Poverty is losing a child to illness brought about by unclean water. Poverty is powerlessness, lack of representation and freedom.
Some goals that the world has for the 21st century are:
Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
Promote gender equality and empower women
Achieve universal primary education
Reduce child mortality
Improve maternal health
Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other diseases
Ensure environmental sustainability
