CONTENT | About: The challenge of global poverty in our unequal world is far graver than what is reflected in the government and other statistical data. Billions of people live in extremely miserable conditions. Almost half of the world's population lives on less than US$5 a day. In fact, people live in poverty in every country of the world which is not often talked about.
