Poverty

Jun 7th, 2008 by Ram Pokhrel | 0

We visited Washington Cash (community alliance for self help) and Rural Development Institute this week. Both of the organizations were non profits working to overcome poverty issues, they are doing great jobs. Washington Cash serves to public in United States making them skilled over business development and promoting them as entrepreneurs where as RDI focuses on policy issues over land rights all over the world. Despite of different working areas poverty is the main issue around their work may it be in developed or developing country. Gap among the rich and poor is increasing today due to the political structures we have built. In my observation we need to work for changing the structure else we have never ending efforts to make and yet it is endless………
