[This is an exclusive Community Service + Experience under Project C - Connect x Community - Theme A - SDG 1 No Poverty]
Billions of people around the world live in extreme poverty. Nearly 10% of the world's population are living below the World Bank poverty line of US$1.90 per day. This poverty simulation designed by Crossroads Foundation will help you experience the hopelessness and intricacy of the poverty web. After that, you can make a difference to the lives of people living in vulnerable circumstances through volunteering at Crossroads.
全球十分一人口只靠著每日1.9美元收入掙扎求存,為了讓科大同學有更深入了解冰冷數字背後的貧窮問題,科大侍學行現邀請同學參與國際十字路會設計的貧窮模擬體驗活動,讓大家感受貧窮帶來的絕望及惡性循環。體驗活動後,義工將會身體力行幫忙整理、包裝和搬運商業或獨立人士捐贈的物資,為香港和世界各地貧窮人口送上所需物資。
