In this story , Rahul asks his grandfather a lot of questions related to Economic development experience of India and its current challenges, like- What are the main causes of Poverty? Importance of Rural development for inclusive growth? Even after 60 years of independence, why India is ranked so low in Human development Index? How growth impacts environment and endangers our sustenance ? Has socialism helped or ruined the early years of development? Why India faced a bankruptcy situation in 1990? How reforms have transformed Indian Economy and many more questions like this.
Comprehensive answers to these questions is the quest of this story, and it forms a solid base for understanding development Economics .

My name is Lamin Jarju. I am the project director of Penyem Jamorai Relief Organization (PJRO) formed in Canada as an (NGO). I am bringing to your attention a project with great potential for the alleviation of hunger, poverty and malnutrition within the rural agrarian communities in the Gambia, West Africa. The PJRO is interested in promoting sustainable rural development through agriculture irrigation to reduce poverty and contribute to more secure, equitable and prosperous communities in these villagers. Poverty in Africa is more prevalent among the rural communities that depend on agriculture. The Penyem Jamorai Relief Organization (PJRO) is seeking funding to help the agrarians to overcome food shortages and poverty through their own initiatives. At full development, this project will support farmers in these communities to achieve better lives for themselves and their families.
The importance of supporting the rural agrarian communities in the Gambia is essential because the poverty level in these communities is very high and agricultural production is very low due to the climate change. The majority of the population rely on rainfall which is very limited. Agriculture Irrigation is central to reducing rural poverty and hunger within the community. Farmers in Africa, most of whom are women and children living in rural areas, need support to have a regular supply of water during the dry season to enhance food security. Rural communities in the continent of Africa are more vulnerable to hunger and starvation. The high price of food largely impacts the rural communities, resulting in all forms of abuse and violence. Poverty perpetuates the migration of individuals to overcrowded urban areas in search of employment.
The Objective is to construct six (6) boreholes for irrigation and help build the capacity of women to be self- reliant and increase agricultural production.

Poverty reduction
Poverty reduction is a term that describes the promotion of various measures, both economic and humanitarian, that will permanently lift people out of poverty.
Introduction
Poverty reduction measures, like those promoted by Henry George in his economics classic Progress and Poverty, are those that raise, or are intended to raise, enabling the poor to create wealth for themselves as a means of ending poverty forever. In modern times, various economists within the georgism movement propose measures like the land value tax to enhance access by all to the natural world. Poverty occurs in both developing countries and developed countries. While poverty is much more widespread in developing countries, both types of countries undertake poverty reduction measures.
Poverty has been historically accepted in some parts of the world as inevitable as non-industrialized economies produced very little while populations grew almost as fast, making wealth scarce. Geoffrey Parker wrote that "In Antwerp and Lyon, two of the largest cities in western Europe, by 1600 three-quarters of the total population were too poor to pay taxes, and therefore likely to need relief in times of crisis."Poverty reduction, or poverty alleviation, has been largely as a result of overall economic growth.Food shortages were common before modern agricultural technology and in places that lack them today, such as nitrogen fertilizers, pesticides and irrigation methods. The dawn of industrial revolution led to high economic growth, eliminating mass poverty in what is now considered the developed world. World GDP per person quintupled during the 20th century. In 1820, 75% of humanity lived on less than a dollar a day, while in 2001, only about 20% do.

My name is Lamin Jarju. I am the project director of Penyem Jamorai Relief Organization (PJRO) formed in Canada as an (NGO). I am bringing to your attention a project with great potential for the alleviation of hunger, poverty and malnutrition within the rural agrarian communities in the Gambia, West Africa. The PJRO is interested in promoting sustainable rural development through agriculture irrigation to reduce poverty and contribute to more secure, equitable and prosperous communities in these villagers. Poverty in Africa is more prevalent among the rural communities that depend on agriculture. The Penyem Jamorai Relief Organization (PJRO) is seeking funding to help the agrarians to overcome food shortages and poverty through their own initiatives. At full development, this project will support farmers in these communities to achieve better lives for themselves and their families.
The importance of supporting the rural agrarian communities in the Gambia is essential because the poverty level in these communities is very high and agricultural production is very low due to the climate change. The majority of the population rely on rainfall which is very limited. Agriculture Irrigation is central to reducing rural poverty and hunger within the community. Farmers in Africa, most of whom are women and children living in rural areas, need support to have a regular supply of water during the dry season to enhance food security. Rural communities in the continent of Africa are more vulnerable to hunger and starvation. The high price of food largely impacts the rural communities, resulting in all forms of abuse and violence. Poverty perpetuates the migration of individuals to overcrowded urban areas in search of employment.
The Objective is to construct six (6) boreholes for irrigation and help build the capacity of women to be self- reliant and increase agricultural production.

Poverty alleviation, elderly care prioritised (25.9.2016)
Acting Chief Secretary Matthew Cheung: Poverty alleviation, better elderly care, and enhanced support for the needy and disadvantaged rank very high on the Government's policy agenda. For example, welfare spending has risen by a significant 55% from HK$42.8 billion in 2012-13 to the current financial figure of HK$66.2 billion. It is now the second largest item of our recurrent expenditure just after education. A host of new measures aimed at improving care and social security provision for our senior citizens as well as to tackle working poverty here have also been put in place in gearing ourselves up for a fast-aging community. Currently one out of seven Hong Kong people are aged 65 or above, in twenty years’ time, it will become one in three. And as to narrow the wealth gap, we will not ...
