Why this petition matters

Started by Lutfi AbuLaban

Poverty: “Poverty is hunger. Poverty is lack of shelter. Poverty is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. Poverty is not having access to school and not knowing how to read. Poverty is not having a job, is fear for the future, living one day at a time."

Poverty is a serious subject that needs to tackled and faced. Millions of people suffer from it around the world.

There is no definitive solution for it, because of its variety of reasons. A lot of people have many different reasons and we cannot control them because most are personal. What we can do is minimize the risk of going into poverty by taking a stand towards improving our economy and creating a different mindset of people about work and jobs in general.

Solution to end poverty:

  • We can start small by helping people change their minds about work and jobs in general. we can start off by convincing the public that working different jobs on different pay levels is not taboo.
  • Equality and representation for all.
  • Increase access to education.
  • End war and conflict.

“Extreme poverty anywhere is a threat to human security everywhere.”
