While the UN goal of reducing extreme poverty by half was met five years early, over 800 million people still live in extreme poverty and 795 million are undernourished. The author chose to focus on eradicating extreme poverty and hunger at the local level by creating a Facebook page and food drives to connect those in need to community resources. As a community member, the author believes small, local actions can make an impact and spread change even globally.

Povertyyyyyyy (1)
The document discusses poverty, defining it as not having enough money to meet basic needs. It notes that the Democratic Republic of Congo suffers most from poverty, with almost 80% of people living in poverty and 45,000 children dying each month due to starvation and illness. A few key organizations helping to fight poverty are mentioned, including Food for the Hungry and Feeding America, which provide food, medicine, education, and other resources. The document also discusses how poverty exists in Singapore and ways individuals can help, such as through food donation drives.
Poverty presentation manas
Poverty is defined as a lack of basic human needs like food, water, shelter, clothing, healthcare and education. Absolute poverty refers to not being able to afford basic resources for survival, while relative poverty is defined within a given context or society. Over 1 billion people live on less than $1.25 per day, and poverty disproportionately impacts those in rural areas and developing countries. Poverty can be addressed through government programs that generate employment, improve education, infrastructure and social services, and promote sustainable development.
Child Mortality
The United Nations has set a goal to reduce child mortality globally. While progress has been made to reduce child deaths from 12.7 million in 1990 to 7.2 million currently, the target has not yet been achieved. Ongoing conflicts in places like the Middle East and Africa have hindered progress, as have disagreements between world powers. To further reduce child mortality rates, the author proposes raising community awareness, engaging local governments, and using social media to communicate the issue and call for donations to support solutions.
Ppt...poverty
Poverty can be absolute, meaning extreme deprivation of basic human needs, or relative, defined according to the standard of living in a given society. Absolute poverty refers to a lack of means for survival, like lack of food, shelter, or clean water. Causes of poverty include rapid population growth, low agricultural productivity, unemployment, and lack of economic development. Effects include increased disease, crime, homelessness, and risk of war, terrorism, and corruption. Reducing poverty in India requires increasing agricultural productivity, providing education for all children, and reducing the high costs of being poor through social welfare programs.
Poverty in india
Poverty in India has declined significantly from 2004-2005 to 2009-2010, with the poverty rate falling from 37.2% to 29.8%. This reduction is attributed to increased government spending on rural welfare programs that provided money directly to people. Rural poverty declined faster than urban poverty during this period. However, India still has one of the largest poor populations in the world, with over 260 million people living below the poverty line, the majority residing in rural areas where agriculture is the main occupation. Efforts to further reduce poverty focus on increasing economic growth, agricultural production, infrastructure development, education, and social programs.

The document discusses ways to help end poverty and hunger through donating to and volunteering with organizations that provide food and necessities. It suggests donating to food banks, community gardens, and having free pantries. The greatest contributions can be made by donating money or supplies to large organizations, giving excess food and supplies, and volunteering weekly to distribute supplies to those in need. Social media platforms can spread awareness of these issues and organizations through hashtags to reach many potential donors.
Gender equity (mdg)
The document discusses gender disparity and outlines goals and statistics related to empowering women globally. It notes that 70% of people in poverty are women and women do 66% of the world's work for only 5% of income. The gender equity goal focuses on educational parity between girls and boys. Examples from Mozambique show how political, economic and social solutions can empower women through new laws and access to loans to start businesses.
Global Hunger And Poverty
The fight on global hunger and poverty. I am passionate about contributing towards the fight to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger by 2025 - see where you fit in and join the fight.
Conclusions
The document discusses predictions for the state of the world in 2050. It predicts that issues like malaria, HIV/AIDS, and poverty will significantly decrease as a percentage of the global population due to factors like increased education and access to healthcare. Gender inequality and violence against women are also expected to decline as women gain more education and economic opportunities. However, overpopulation, environmental degradation, and resource scarcity may become severe global problems unless addressed. Corruption, exploitation by multinational corporations, and dependence on oil must also change to bring about a more just and sustainable world. An educated global population is key to demanding accountability and reform.

Poverty in india
The document discusses poverty, including its causes, impacts, and different types. It notes that poverty is associated with poor health and perpetuates illness. Nearly half the world lives on less than $2.50 per day. Poverty results from factors like rural economies, overpopulation, unemployment, lack of education, and natural disasters. It presents examples comparing economic growth in India and South Korea. The document also describes models for addressing poverty, including microfinance programs like the Grameen Bank that provide small loans to the poor without requiring collateral. It concludes by outlining roles for conducting research and policymaking to promote urban microcredit programs in India.
Causes of poverty
This document discusses the causes and effects of poverty in Pakistan. It identifies several key causes such as lack of education, large scale imports, division of agricultural land, corruption, overpopulation, unemployment, and low national income. The effects of poverty include child labor, health problems, crimes/violence, homelessness, shorter lifespans, and hunger. To address poverty, the document recommends ensuring resources for the poor, empowering them, increasing equal access to markets, boosting agriculture, strengthening microfinance, improving health facilities, implementing poverty elimination programs, and focusing on education and economic growth.
Poverty in india
Poverty in India is widespread, with over 300 million people expected to be lifted out of extreme poverty by 2015 according to a UN report. However, India still faces significant issues with malnutrition and hunger. A committee headed by Suresh Tendulkar developed a new methodology for calculating poverty in India that found over 350 million people lived below the poverty line in 2005. The document then discusses several root causes of poverty in India, including population growth, lack of irrigation and infrastructure in rural areas, unemployment, and social factors like the caste system. Overpopulation is seen as a major challenge exacerbating poverty in India. Improving agricultural productivity and reducing the development gap between states could help address poverty.
Poverty in india
Poverty remains a significant problem in India, with over 27.5% of the population living below the poverty line. Poverty is most prevalent in rural areas, where nearly 75% of poor Indians live on $1 or less per day. The causes of poverty include rapid population growth, lack of education and employment opportunities, and dependence on agriculture. While the Indian government has implemented various initiatives to reduce poverty, such as employment guarantee schemes and rural development programs, poverty continues to disproportionately impact disadvantaged groups like Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. Achieving truly inclusive growth and eliminating poverty will require expanded access to resources, education, and entrepreneurship opportunities across India.
Poverty In Africa
Poverty is a major challenge facing many Africans. Approximately 800 million Africans, or 32 out of 38 African countries, live in highly impoverished conditions. Over 300 million of those living in poverty are children. Common causes of poverty include lack of access to employment, markets, and natural resources destruction. Life in poverty means many Africans survive on less than $1 per day, and have little access to healthcare, education, clean water or sanitation. However, some countries are making progress through initiatives to increase access to education, healthcare, and child sponsorships. The fact that over 800 million Africans go to sleep hungry each night, including 300 million children, is very surprising and eye opening.
The Millennium Development Goals
The document outlines the eight Millennium Development Goals which are to reduce poverty, provide universal primary education, promote gender equality, reduce child mortality, improve maternal health, combat HIV/AIDS and other diseases, ensure environmental sustainability, and develop a global partnership for development by 2015. It encourages joining a campaign to meet the second goal of providing free universal primary education for all children and adding one's voice to send a message to the G8 meeting that education is important.
World hunger and poverty
The document discusses global poverty and hunger. It notes that in 2010, 22% of the world lived on $1.25 or less per day, and 870 million people were undernourished. While 700 million fewer people lived in extreme poverty in 2010 compared to 1990, 1.2 billion still live in those conditions. Locally, people can help by volunteering, donating, mission trips, and spreading awareness on social media to support organizations with goals of ending world hunger and poverty.
Bb values venture(Poverty)
Poverty remains a major global problem, with millions living without adequate food, water, or shelter. Several countries have high rates of poverty, including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, African nations, Ethiopia, and Cambodia. Non-profit organizations like CARE Australia aim to help these impoverished regions through humanitarian aid. Social entrepreneurs also work to address poverty by appealing for donations, using funds to provide necessities, and raising awareness of living conditions. Individuals can contribute by donating to charities, joining missionary outreach, or organizing fundraising events to support poverty relief efforts.
Poverty in india
This document provides an overview of poverty in India, including key statistics and information. It discusses that over 27.5% of India's population lives below the poverty line, with 75% living in rural areas. Rural poverty is caused by factors like rapid population growth, lack of capital, illiteracy, and lack of job opportunities outside of agriculture. The document also addresses urban poverty in India and government initiatives to address employment, housing, and other issues. It concludes by emphasizing the need to continue efforts to alleviate poverty in India.

Food Wastage and Malnutrition
The document discusses food wastage and malnutrition. It defines food wastage as food loss during agricultural production, harvesting, and processing or food waste from consumers. A major cause of hunger is food loss during harvesting and processing in Africa due to infrastructure issues like lack of roads, rail, power and cold storage as well as bureaucracy, corruption, theft and lack of data. Reducing post-harvest loss by 20% could help close the calorie deficit and potentially save lives. Collaboration between producers, technology companies, supply chain partners, authorities and NGOs is needed to address the problem.

- Hunger manifests in undernourishment and deficiencies leading to health issues.
- Poor countries often lack social programs to help those facing hunger.
Healthy foods and unhealty foods
The document discusses healthy and unhealthy foods. It defines key terms like health, healthy, and unhealthy. Healthy foods like vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, and cereals provide energy, protect, and build the body. Unhealthy foods like sweets, chocolate, pizza, and chips can make a person ill if eaten in large quantities. The document uses examples to illustrate healthy foods like oranges and broccoli versus unhealthy foods like chips and cookies. It includes an activity where the reader chooses which pictures show healthy versus unhealthy foods.
Food wastage vs hunger compiled

It defines food wastage and hunger and examines some of the key causes of hunger like poor crop yields, overfishing, and inefficient farming practices. The document also presents statistics showing that while 500 million people live in poverty and 15 million children die from hunger each year, an estimated $31 billion worth of food is wasted annually, which could feed 49 million people.
Lays vs Kurkure vs Balaji
The quantitative market research surveyed 30 respondents using a questionnaire with open-ended and closed-ended questions. It found that 55% of consumers prefer Lays chips over Kurkure and Balaji, while 33% prefer Kurkure. Though the hypothesis was that Balaji would be preferred for its quantity and flavor, respondents said Lays' quantity could be improved and western flavors could be added to Kurkure. The recommendation was for Balaji to advertise its value for money in terms of quantity and repackage its product.

It then examines the root causes of world hunger, including gender discrimination, population growth, conflict, and political instability. The effects of chronic hunger are also outlined, such as increased risk of infection, infant mortality, and obstacles to economic growth. Finally, the document defines and compares different concepts of poverty, such as absolute, relative, and hardcore poverty.
Food wastage
Food waste occurs at multiple stages and for various reasons. Too much food is often cooked or ordered than what can be consumed, leading to leftovers being wasted. Limitations in food preservation technology and damage during transportation and storage also contribute to wastage. Improper training of sales staff and lack of proper stock rotation procedures in stores further increase wastage. Control of pests and proper storage of foods can help reduce wastage.

This document outlines a project to reduce food waste at a school mess in Pune, India. It lists the mentor and 9 students involved. The problem of food waste is identified, with a proposed solution of educating students on the value of food and condition of the poor.

Maggi promotional strategy
Maggi noodles was first launched in India in 1983 by Nestle. Initial strategies to promote Maggi as a convenient option for working women did not boost sales. After conducting research, Nestle changed the tagline to "Fast to Cook, Good to Eat" and promoted free samples, gifts with empty packets. Maggi was later targeted at kids through sponsoring TV shows. It is now targeting the entire family. Recent campaigns celebrate 25 years of Maggi in India.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC Charlotte
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

Eradicating extreme poverty and hunger
- 1. Eradicating Extreme Poverty and Hunger By: Katerina Adamyuk
- 2. UNGoal met by 2015? Sort of Poverty Wanted to reduce extreme poverty rates by half and that was done 5 years before the goal deadline More than 1 billion people lifted out of extreme poverty Hunger Since 1990, proportion of undernourished people in developing regions fell by almost half
- 3. Global Facts on Poverty and Hunger More than 800 million people are still living in extreme poverty 795 million people are still are estimated to be undernourished More than 90 million children under 5 are still undernourished and underweight
- 4. Why I chose this topic While solving this on a global level seems so unattainable, it all starts with each one of us. If we do our part, we can make a difference locally and that can spread even globally! I know that even in my community people struggle with poverty and malnutrition. As a local community, I think we can create a Facebook page where we can post updates and news about food drives or other community outreaches. I think food drives are an excellent idea that have been working for many years and should continue to be done.We also have a free lunch program during summers that give free lunches to children aged K-12.
- 5. Why I chose this topic (cont.) As for the poverty, we need to have a verified internet page where employers can post jobs for people that are job hunting. This is such a broad issue that definitely stems from the way governments treat it and what relief they provide for people going through these situations but as a local community member I think it is important to be informed of any events that are going on and how we can get involved and help our fellow community members.
- 6. All facts and Information was gathered from: http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/poverty.shtml
