The help he will receive will be directly from his country’s government and not really from an outside organization. Because of that individual and social development of Nyamiti is going to be delayed. Her county is going to need a lot of help from other organizations. I feel that since Nyamiti is living in a third world country it will be difficult for her family to lift off from where they are. At one point they only received 5 pounds for the week which isn’t much and there’s no heat in his house. You can’t tell that he and his family is poor because of the way he looks but by his story. In the other video the student David is well dressed in his uniform and looks clean. She goes to school with no shoes or food in her belly and walking around barefoot. Her and her siblings are sleeping on the floor in a hut. In the video Malawi Child Poverty, you can tell that Nyamiti is poor. Poverty is different in the two societies shown because from one video you can tell who is living in poverty but from the other one you can’t. I had the subtitles on but the subtitles on You tube are not really accurate.Ĥ.
I kind of had a hard time understanding what he was saying because Sen and the guy interviewing him just kept talking over him.
From what I gathered according to Sen if the country is a democracy then certain things won’t take place such as a famine. Sen feels that the individual freedom leads to social change and progress however individual freedom depends on certain social opportunities. No need to worry about any type of insurance because at the end of the day sometimes insurance does not always pay for everything.ģ. America’s healthcare is pretty expensive and since that is the case and not much is not being done about it I feel that everyone under the age of 18 should receive free healthcare especially those living under the poverty line. Sen gave me a point of view that I never thought about and the second reading just made me see that I am not wrong about the way I feel when it comes to the health of children. On slide 7 when you mentioned bad institutions are you talking about like jails/prisons? I was not sure what you’re talking about because I can’t think of any bad institution besides that or maybe like high crime neighborhoods which are usually located in poor neighborhoods.Ģ.
