What is Poverty?

Not having enough money or resources to have a comfortable life is considered poverty. It entails being unable to purchase necessities like food, clothing, and a secure place to live.

List and explain 5 causes of poverty.

Five of the different causes of poverty are given here:
Poverty mostly comes from the generation to generations and it leads to a bad and never ending cycle, according to my understanding these are the reasons of poverty

  • As the poor people don't have enough money and no high paying jobs they have to prioritize their food over the other facilities such as schools. Lack of schooling results in the poverty.
  • High paying jobs are required to get the daily needs fulfilled
  • To make the lives better one need to have some savings, just having a job that fills the food needs is not enough.
  • People who are disabled; can't fit into many jobs and they end up being poor.
  • In the current society there are many people who are targetted based on their gender, race, ethnicity, skin color, disability. Those people even if get jobs they will be paid less than the other people

    One of the many negative effects of poverty is that people can't get the elements they need for health if they do not have sufficient funds for food.
  • When people don't eat enough they become victims of the diseases. Above that they don't have money to get semselves treated, so that's another problem
  • When people are poor they don't have houses, without house they've to either live on rent or just be homeless.
  • With ever increasing inflation people with not good education will stay poor and things would get worse for them
  • When in poverty people tend to find means to eradicate their poverty and they fell a victim of the problems like drugs and do other bad stuffs.
What are the poverty alleviation strategies you know and how can it help reduce poverty?
  • I think its not the individuals who have to change the things, its the government; government should make education accessible to everyone irrespective of their employement conditions or how much money they have.
  • There are many people who are educated but they do not have a skill that can earn them money, so there should be training programs where people get to learn new things.
  • Making housing for the poor so that they do not end up on streets doing drugs
  • Make getting food easier and cheaper, so the people working on low wages can spend the less on food and save for their future.
What can you personally do to alleviate poverty in your locality?

I often donate my used clothing and toys to charity as a way to combat poverty. Take part in food drives and other charitable activities to support those in need. Increase public awareness of poverty and the methods that individuals may assist. Be courteous to others and respect everyone, regardless of their financial situation.

Can Steemit help alleviate poverty? Explain.

On the platform Steemit, users may generate the digital currency by producing and curating content. While it could give some individuals a chance to make money, it is unlikely to be a dependable solution to significantly reduce poverty. It also calls for using technology and the internet, which not everyone who needs assistance may have access to.

You brought in good points, because they're many educated people but they don't have the skills, or jobs to give them money and help alleviate them from poverty, such training programs would be of help❤️.
