Shower of Aid brings flood of progress.


Sachs demonstrated technology-based programs like health, education and communication, which resulted huge improvements and lift people out of poverty. People also learned to improve and use surroundings efficiently like breeding catfish and harvesting honey. Some goals were teaching crop rotation and working against malaria since these goals prevents deaths of one million children. With help of technology instant treatment helps saves life instantly. Can Sauri’s success be replicated? Donors are required to wipe out poverty but this is hard when people are unaware and obstacles to aid like government corruption. Poverty might have a link with terrorism ending about 1/3 the problem. as a reference the actual article can be read!

Even today 22,000 people die from extreme poverty. This video showed us that a few simple solutions can change the lives of a whole community. One of the leading causes of child deaths is cause of malaria. With the help of $7 not only the lives of children can be saved but these kill the mosquitos as well. 850 million sleep hungry everyday. With about 30 bags of seeds the whole village can sleep peacefully and almost all the children of the village get an education because of free lunches at school. This also helps the kids grow healthily. Thus i learnt that everyone can help even us. Poverty has to end. If we al get together and join hands this will become reality.

Peace by understanding not by force!



Peace by understanding and not by force is a paraphrase from a quote by Albert Einstein 'Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.' I chose this quote because it represents what still is happening in the world, wars are still happening and is affecting everyone today. Millions of innocent people are loosing their lives and suffering for no reason. Every one needs to understand what peace really is and wants it. Im sure every individual wants to be safe from deaths and wants to feel safe and live with no tensions. I think this can only happen if we make rights a compulsory curriculum in every ones education. Every one also has to have a voice as an individual. People needs to see themselves in everyone else and think equality. The only reason why there are still wars is because of threats and the difference between to cultures etc. Peace is something everyone needs inorder to feel secure in their own homes. Stop wars and think equality in order to make our world a better place!
