Présentation de l'éditeur

Poverty is characterised by the severe deprivation of basic human needs such as food, housing, safe drinking water, health and education. In the year 2000, the UN's Millenium Development Goals declared the aim of eradicating extreme poverty and hunger by 2015. Although progress has been made, there are still billions of people in the developing world surviving on less than £0.80 a day. Shockingly, poverty is also a crippling issue for the UK, with 13 million people currently living on 60% or less of the average household income. This book investigates poverty on both a global and a local scale and examines ways in which we can tackle this crisis.
