2. WHAT IS POVERTY?
Poverty is lack of money or any
material possessions, it means of
experiencing a low quality life
deprived of both material and non-
material requirements that allow an
individual to live like a human being.
A condition in which people are
unable to buy minimal amount of
food, clothing and shelter that are
required for existence.

fifth of the population who still
live below the national poverty
line as of 2015. Severe number of
hunger who dropped from 3.7% in
the last 3 months as of 2017.
Moderate hunger fell from 12.2%
in the December survey. The
highest incidence of self-rate
hunger was in Luzon wherein 1.1
million families said they suffered
hunger at least 3 months of their
lives.

4. POVERTY ON HEALTH
“Every people that permits people
to remain under the fetters of
preventable disease and permits
social conditions to exist that make
it impossible for them to be
properly fed, clothed and houses,
so as maintain a high degree of
resistance and physical fitness,and
that endorses a wage that does not
afford sufficient- revenue for
home, a revenue that will make
possible to the development of
mind and body” Dr. Charles
Hastings, City of Toronto(1910-
1929).

5. Poverty on Development
Poverty affects child’s overall
growth such as physically,
emotionally, and their cognitive
health and development. They
most likely experience family
related stress that can negatively
affect their emotional well being.
They also have an increase risk of
developing unhealthy behavior
such as smoking that could impact
on their future health

6. Perception of Filipinos
Poverty has become so normalized
that society tends to believe that
the only solution to get out from it
is hard work, as if being poor is
the lack of an individual will to get
out from poverty. Human always
dreaming of having many
possessions either financially or
any sorts. Believed that poverty
has a ladder that everyone should
climb and strictly follow to
achieve specific goal.

7. Poverty Reports
The world bank reported that there
are 22 million Filipinos (more than
one fifth of the population), who
still lining below the national
poverty lane as of 2015.
Meanwhile society still stuck
believing that “Poverty is not a
hindrance to success” basis from
rags to reaches stories, without
thinking that the majority of
Filipinos work hard, day and night
but their socio economic status
remains unstable and deplorable

8. EFFECTS
 This problem affects our
education, our economy its
becoming a norm and people
seems to be reluctant of it. What
was once a local, and regional
problem ,is now a national issue
that will affect our progress
towards a bright future. Economic
growth had gone through a boom
of bust cycle the recent episodes of
moderate economic expansion
have had limited impact on the
poor.

9. BASIS
 On average, children living in low
family income pr neigborhood
have poorer health outcomes.
Furthermore, poverty affect child
health not only when they are
young but also on their later lives
as adults. The health effects of
poverty and articulates the health
related.

10. ANALYSIS:
 Poverty kills the true meaning of
life, hunger, unemployment. The
agony of the poor. Reckless vulgar
emotion that stopped them to rise
rather pulling them to the deepest
level of poverty lane. What are the
things we could do to help them?
But the biggest question remains
unanswered. Can we still eliminate
poverty? Was there a chance of
survival? Who is to blame of many
sufferings or who would take
responsibility for this?
