Poverty Facts....?

Question

Do you know any good facts about childhood poverty,human rights,etc that I can use in a movie that im making about those subjects. Thanks :D I'll give 10pts to the best answer

Answer 1

Here's one about global poverty: using the generalization that 1/3 of the world's population lives in poverty -- if we were to take the net worth of the world's 50 richest billionaires (using the recent Forbes list) and divide it among the poor of the world, each individual would get about $300.

Answer 2

Look at the research done by Ruby Payne.  She is an expert on kids in poverty and how they view education and how they view the world as compared to those expectations placed on them from the middle class.  Its super interesting.  I went to her seminar and it was an eye opener!
