Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger

MDG Goal:
Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger

Among the goals mentioned by my fellow DC1 students, I feel more sympathy for those families who crave for shelter, clothing, and all of the other necessities, especially food… There was a time when I experienced eating with the less fortunate people; our food at that time was fish “tinola” and rice, the food were place in a very large container, we just dip the plastic cup in getting the rice and somebody will just add soup. For me, it’s just simply an ordinary food, but I never thought of the magic that the fish soup could contribute to those individuals.
Based from my experienced, I would simply define development as change. A group of human beings starving for food and with the help of the fish soup their starvation for that particular day was lessen. It brought up development in a sense that changed for the betterment was prioritized.
