1. Eradicate Extreme
Hunger and Poverty
By: Hanna Watkinson

2. Why Does it Resonate?
Growing up in the suburbs of Washington State, I did not experience extreme poverty or hunger. Even when
going into the city, it was rare to see extreme poverty. It wasn't until I began traveling in middle school when I
realized how good I really had it. The first country I went to was Thailand. We got in very late and walked
around the city around 4am. I saw families begging on the streets. I saw children digging in garbage cans. I
was shocked how people lived in different countries. My trip to Thailand changed the way I thought about my
own life.

3. How Can It Be Applied?
If we reduce extreme poverty and hunger happening all around the world, many things will benefit :
● Agricultural productivity

are a lot of things we can still do. We can donate to local charities and food drives. There are organizations

others awareness of the many things happening all around the world. We know about the positive and
