From Ecuador and Cambodia to Ethiopia, poverty manifests itself in various forms, impacting communities worldwide.
The Millennium Development Goals set ambitious targets to be achieved by 2015, including reducing waste, ensuring access to clean water, and providing education for all children. While progress has been made in certain areas, poverty still persists, casting a shadow over countless lives. Despite the ban on child labor in garbage dumps, children now find themselves working as vendors in cities during the night. Regrettably, local authorities turn a blind eye to this violation, perpetuating the cycle. The mindset and dire circumstances of impoverished parents often prioritize work over their children’s education.
What’s truly astonishing is that, according to conventional definitions, neither the child vendors nor the residents enduring squalid conditions in slums are officially considered below the poverty line. Unravel the complexities surrounding this paradox and gain a deeper understanding of the true extent and impact of poverty.
