| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references and index Preface -- Introduction: opening our eyes to how we can end poverty in our day -- Break the fast -- Educate every child -- Make work pay -- Care for our children -- Give all children healthy futures -- Help produce a better harvest -- Consume with conscience -- Give from the heart: more thoughts on giving -- End hunger and malnutrition -- Extend the reach of technology -- Expand access to microcredit -- Encourage social entrepreneurship -- Ensure health care for all -- Provide housing -- Call for debt relief -- Serve with satisfaction: more thoughts on volunteering -- Extend hospitality and create community -- Spread literacy -- Improve transportation options -- Travel with a purpose -- Save the lives of mothers and newborns -- Improve access to clean water -- Increase international development aid -- Speak up for justice: more thoughts on advocacy -- Conclusion: dream of a bright tomorrow -- How to use this book with others -- Guide for schools -- Guide for the workplace -- Guide for places of worship -- Index -- About the book team Our Day to End Poverty invites us to look at the twenty-four hours in our very ordinary days and to begin to think about poverty in new and creative ways. The authors offer scores of simple actions anyone can take to help eradicate poverty. Each chapter takes a task we undertake during a typical day and relates it to what we can do to ease the world's suffering. We begin by eating breakfast, so the first chapter focuses on alleviating world hunger. We take the kids to school--what can we do to help make education affordable to all? In the afternoon we check our email--how can we ensure the access to technology that is such an important route out of poverty? The chapters are short and pithy, full of specific facts, resources for learning more, and menus of simple, often fun, and always practical action steps. Anne Frank wrote, How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. Let's get started. It is our day to end poverty |
