suffering affecting almost three billion people worldwide. By the end of the session, students will be able to explain and link

many of the causes of poverty and ongoing vulnerability; identify some long-term, sustainable solutions that can break the

cycle, as well as some of the very real obstacles which lay ahead; and understand how they can be involved at a local level

to make a difference internationally that will change these vicious cycles to more ‘virtuous’ ones.
