Yr12 - UNICEF ways to descrease poverty.

The last few weeks we have been covering the following things.

• Natural factors which influence the development of a country. (climate, landscape, natural disasters)
• Cultural factors which influence the development of a country. (type of government, economic composition (primary, secondary and tertiary), social traditions and beliefs).
• Ways in which we can reduce poverty and encourage the development of a country 

The link below takes you to the UNICEF website. There are many useful videos and ideas on this site and descriptions of how the charity is helping to reduce poverty around the world.
