Poverty


Is the lack of basic human needs , such as clean water , nutrition , health care, education , clothing and shelter, because of the inability to afford them. Relative poverty is the condition of having fewer resources or less income than others within a society or country, or compared to worldwide averages.

World poverty is a problem that can be altered by simple acts by simple people. This world problem is defined as a lack of sufficient income and resources, inevitably causing a lack of basic needs such as food and shelter. The causes of poverty vary from society to society and even individual to individual, but the effects are widespread and troubling. There are many things anyone can do to help this situation. Research into the causes and needs of these people is imperative to helping successfully.

Poverty has many causes, some of them very basic. Some experts suggest, for instance, that the world has too many people, too few jobs, and not enough food. But such basic causes are quite intractable and not easily eradicated. In most cases, the causes and effects of poverty interact, so that what makes people poor also creates conditions that keep them poor.

Poverty as a social problem is a deeply embedded wound that permeates every dimension of culture and society. It includes sustained low levels of income for members of a community. It includes a lack of access to services like education, markets, health care, lack of decision making ability, and lack of communal facilities like water, sanitation, roads, transportation, and communications.

I think i s a difficult situation, is very sad when you see the needs that spend many families, living situations, such as lack of food, a bad home, can´t have education, disease. So I think it would be so good that the government put more than your part and help millions of families.
