This website has a bunch of statistics about different areas of poverty. For example, they have a section of statistics about where child poverty is concentrated. This website has both causes and effects of poverty. But what I also like about this website, is it has not only things about poverty, but also things about hunger, and homelessness. This website really expresses how poverty has grown, and how it effects everyone, especially children. It make me feel very fortunate that I am healthy, go to a great school, and have loving and educated parents.

This article has listed a few of the ways people have made the poverty number drop. The author of the article has also stated their opinions on how we should help the people in poverty by helping them learn how to sustain by themselves, not giving them aid.

I don't like how the person makes demands for the world to follow. It shows nothing about if countries are already trying to get rid of poverty or how it would mess with their economic structure. Some countries have health care for everyone but other parts of their economy is messed up.

The article is about poverty-related diseases (PRDs) and how it is a mafor cause and cosequence of considerable povert in Developing Countries (DCs). The burdens of PRDs, especially HIV/AIDS, which today more than 40 million people are infected with AIDS, and many of them are in sub-Saharian Africa. Malaria, and Tuberculosis (TB), also TB remains the leading cause od morbidity and mortality world-wide, accounting for more than 2 million human lives every year. The annual global death toll of these three diseases approaches 6 million people and, in some African countries HIV infected 40% of the entire population. But the European Commision has propposed to support a long-term partnership between Europe and developing countries by providing $200 million for development of new medicines and vaccines to fight these three diseases. Thus the European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnershipm(EDCTP) brings together EU Member States plus Norway, developing countries and industry in a joint effort to combat PRDs. Fighting thses diseases will also be one of the most effective ways to alleviate poverty and promote economic progress in DCs. My opinion of this article is that it's brilliant, knowing that U.S. is not alone and that countries are coming together to stop thess diseases and poverty problems alike. I hope this article would be an insperation to teh U.S. and other countries, that are facing poverty and the horrific effects of the grotisque "plague!"

This article talks about poverty around the world and gives statistics. I was shocked when it said that 1 child dies every four seconds due to poverty. 15 children die every minute.

I was completly shocked at what this article had to say. I was not happy with the notion that every four seconds a child dies and most likely it is causes realates to poverty. I want to help those in need. The pictures that they had of the children made my heart ache. I know that we might not save every child in the world but maybe we can reduce those numbers.

Definatly a eye-opening article. The first few lines of text were like a bomb to the heart. It's just so sad that so many children are dying, and that there is no clear, easy solution.

The website is about what has lead us to poverty and what still is. It seems like from the website that people in the west take advantage of poorer regions because the resources are cheaper. I find that very selfish. I was also very suprised too see that the main problem were the policies of international institutions.

it was weird to read that the food banks can help people, but some people it doesnt help them at all.

haley im sorry but would you care to explain what you are saying a bit more

An article about the Solutions and causes of Poverty

This article is about the causes and effects of poverty, and some studies that have been done on it. While reading this article, I was surprised to find out that almost 36 Million people in the United States are in poverty.

Tells a lot about what causes poverty, and just what poverty is. It says poverty has no final definition and that it's more of a moral thing. It's a really good website, it told me a lot.

this article is about the rise in poverty across europe. it says that old people and young people are highly suceptable to poverty but what does this mean? i feel that the middle group is bieng left out and that they are the cause of the poverty in theese neutral states.

This is an article about how Philadelphia cut its food pantry budget while so many families are already struggling. To be more specific they cut their State Food Purchase Program which is how the states buy food for their food pantries.

Why would you you do a budget cut for a food pantry when tones of familys need the most help they can get.

Thye decision to cut Philadelphia's food pantry, is cutting on human lives. People who are in poverty are starving in Philadelphia, and whithout people alive in Philadelphia, then what, or where is Philadelphia?!

this has facts about the amount of people who are in poverty and suffering from hunger

This article is about people in Africa that live off 1 US dollar. Also it is about how wars in Africa can affect the people by higher poverty rates and really bad farming policys . Country's at war that are in Africa get 12.5 % less food per each person.

this site is about people living in africa that gets less than 1 US dollar per day. Also it says some of the major problems in Africa for poverty is because of wars, poor farm policys, and more. For more in formation please read more.

I wonder if the people understand that by fighting they are only hurting themselves and their country.

This article explains some of the causes of hunger and poverty, some facts, and what this organization has done to help. Some of the facts were really surprising, and I was surprised by how many people are struggling with hunger.

This article talks about the causes of hunger and how hunger is in America. It also gives you some quick facts and statistics. It also talks about the rises in hunger and poverty in the last couple years.

i like how this artical have a chart to see with numbers. this artical is about definitions about hunger and the cause of poverty and the solutions

This website give a lot of other webpages on different topics. Easy to see with complimentary pictures.

This talks about how America isn't what it's said to be and criticizes a multitude of people. This also has stories about people living in poverty. This also is a compilation of articles as well.

This article describes how poverty affects childrens brains. The articles says that lower class children's brains develope differently than those of the higher and middle class. This affects thier language skills and thier "ability to plan and remember details". I found this article interesting, and i think it might help explain why people who grew up in poverty have trouble getting out of it when they are older.

the saddist part is they could be made for each other but their class and income are keeping them apart. D:

I think that it's strange that it's harder for younger people to get married since usually it's the opposite. I wonder if you are well off does it affect your chances for staying with your partner?

it might declan but the stress for young poor kid in love to make ends meets are usually a reason to break up. its easier to substain yourself with some nutricious than provide both of you with raman noodles. so in theory this could cause malnutrision too!

This article is about the definition of hunger and malnutrition, what causes malnutrition,like someone with celic disease, effects of malnutrition, such as getting a weak imune system and fatigue,like who has a high risk of malnutrition, such as people living in poverty,and treatments and recommendations for malnutrition, which is talking to your doctor. Knowing that over 1 billion people in the world are malnurished is heart-breaking and nervracking, since that's more than the U.S., Canda, and the European Union's entire population!
