Poverty is not an accident. Like slavery and apartheid, it is man-made and can be removed by the actions of human beings.
— Nelson Mandela
This is the first entry of our Blog, and we would like to express our concern with the implications of poverty in developing countries, including economic, social and health-related consequences. Our team is formed by Roberto Marbán, Alejandro Ollivier, Emanuel Arias & Galilea Gutiérrez.
Our Web Page “Implications on Poverty” is about the implications and factors about poverty and poverty nowadays it is a big problem in our countries majorly in the developing countries. And some of the issues connected to poverty, it’s about the style of live for those countries in development, also in the way of afecting society in the inner cities.

The main idea that we cover in our page is that of both cultural and economic development in third world countries, it is a very baroque expression to say underdeveloped or developing countries because if we take into account all the information we have at hand, all Countries of the world have their own development in their own way.

For the following investigation, we conducted a survey of 17 people on what are the implications of poverty in developing countries, as well as questions to know how informed society is about the issue of world poverty. For further information, click here to visit it.
The following results include first the sector of society to know personal information about the respondent. In Figure 1 we show the results of the average ages of all respondents. Figure 2 shows the gender of the respondent, as we see most are women. Also, Figure 3 gives us an answer to what the respondent is dedicated to, the majority are students
These results include optional poverty questions to know how much society is informed about the issue. Graph 1 tells us the poverty index considered by the respondents that exists in Mexico. As we can see in te Graph 2, more than 90 percent agree that the continent with a higher poverty rate is Africa. Also, we observe in Graph 3 that more than 50 percent of respondents agree that the most viable solution to this problem is a BETTER GOVERNMENT. In the end, Graph 4 tells us the social sector most affected by poverty, and in it we see that the most affected sector is «children»
The following results are open questions, and we also found that their answers were similar. For example, to the question of the Figure 1 is «What does the poverty mean to you?«, Most agree that it is the «Shortage or lack of what is necessary to live«, approximately 70 percent agree with this. In the Figure 2 they had to mention some developing countries. Then, Figure 3 is about the question » What do you think are the implications of poverty?. In the end, Figure 4 talks about «What are some consequences of extreme poverty?» according to respondents. Most consider death as the most frequent and extreme consequence.
