Question

Suggest any three ways to reduce poverty

Answer 1

As part of the sustainable development goals adopted in September 2015, the United Nations is challenging global leaders to help end poverty in all its forms, everywhere, by 2030.

Although this will be no easy feat, the UN believes – and Plan International agrees – that we can achieve it if we work together.

Through collaboration among countries the world over, we can end the cycle of poverty and begin a cycle of progress.

Here are 5 things Plan believes are critical in the fight to end poverty around the world.

Answer 2

Increase the wages of low skill labor or government redistribution policies.
The advice to get more education to avoid being poor works for individuals, but since for many jobs having a college education does not increase your productivity it cannot be a solution for everybody. There is also the problem of people who are poor due to mental or physical illness which can only be solved with subsidies.
