Social Sustainability

Poverty and Hunger

Kayla Baker

• Many people do not see the effects of poverty…

• Poverty and hunger will continue to rise until society as a whole can come together and agree upon a solution to put an end to the disastrous effects of malnourishment.

Three Resolutions…

• Sustaining the economic systems in these areas will lead to a higher availability for food resources, which food availability is the problem.

• Donating to humanitarian groups and letting them bring the resources to these malnourished people is the solution.

• Helping the younger children in these rough situations will create a chain reaction to fix generations to come.

Resolution 1…(Sustaining the economic systems in these areas will lead to a higher availability for food resources, which food

availability is the problem)

Resolution 2…Donating to humanitarian groups and letting them bring the resources to these malnourished people is the

solution.

Resolution 3…(Helping the younger children in these rough situations will create a chain reaction to fix generations to come.)

• Food availability, education, and economic growth are three things that will always have room for improvement and nobody can argue against that.– FACT: The 16 million will keep increasing until steps to

resolve poverty take place.
