Viac o knihe

This book further awakens us to the universal problem of poverty, which affects every person and nation, regardless of wealth. Despite long-standing efforts, poverty eradication remains elusive. Often, our literature, policies, and practices target poverty reduction rather than eradication. The question arises: what prevents us from ending poverty? Dr. Rotimi Nihinlola, a poverty expert with nearly two decades of research and personal experience, offers new perspectives on how to shift our thinking and efforts towards completely eliminating poverty worldwide. He helps us uncover disempowering myths and beliefs that contribute to poverty and hinder eradication efforts. By highlighting the disconnect between our goals of poverty reduction and eradication, he provides insights on how to align our objectives. Dr. Nihinlola outlines new paradigms and actions to transition from merely managing poverty to eradicating it. The book illustrates the heavy price we all pay for poverty and emphasizes that with the right mindset, effective actions, and the necessary will, we can achieve the dream of a poverty-free world in our lifetime.
