Armoede neemt wereldwijd nog sneller af dan gedacht...
Citaat:
Our results indicate that the world has seen a dramatic decrease in global poverty over the past six years, and
that this trend is set to continue in the four years ahead. We estimate that between 2005 and 2010, the total
number of poor people around the world fell by nearly half a billion people, from over 1.3 billion in 2005 to under 900 million in 2010. Looking ahead to 2015, extreme poverty could fall to under 600 million people—less
than half the number regularly cited in describing the number of poor people in the world today. Poverty reduction of this magnitude is unparalleled in history: never before have so many people been lifted out of poverty
over such a brief period of time.
