Professor Thomas Pogge (World Poverty and Human Rights): Despite a high and growing global average income, billions of human beings are still condemned to life- long severe poverty, with all its attendant evils of low life expectancy, social exclusion, ill health, illiteracy, dependency, and effective enslavement.
Citizens of the rich countries are, however, conditioned to downplay the severity and persistence of world poverty. Few realize that severe poverty is an ongoing harm we inflict upon the global poor.
If more of us understood the true magnitude of the problem of poverty and our causal involvement in it, we might do what is necessary to eradicate it?
Professor T. Pogge and Rev. Jose Nandhikkara from India discuss poverty and lack of social & economic development as well as the root causes of human trafficking, based on their experience and research.
