All News SHARE

Hacer Foggo, the Coordinator of the Office of Solidarity with Poverty of the Republican People's Party, said the following at the 2nd Century Economics Congress: “The only thing that will make an end of poverty is to harken and realize those who struggle in poverty. When you harken them, actually they are telling what to do”.
Hacer Foggo, who is the Coordinator of the Office of Solidarity with Poverty of the Republican People's Party ; “  In her speech titled “ Life with Dignity and Poverty” ,she said that poverty should not be viewed only in terms of revenue. Foggo, “the Poverty is a status of inaccessibility, it is an inability to be heard. As well , it is the status of not being able to reach a dignified and free life. If you do not have the right to labor , It also blocks your access to nourishment, It also restrains your child's right for education. In fact , they're all intertwined. You are exposed to more than one poverty at the same time. There is a status of inaccessibility because you can't easily interchange your status. There are people who commit suicide since they have been dismissed. You should look multi dimensional to poverty. Hopefully, in the coming period ;  we will look at social policies related to poverty by using multidimensional poverty criteria.
“The Priority is human right”
Foggo emphasized human rights in her speech. She said that “I believe that poverty can be precluded with a poverty policy which is based on not only income but also on human rights.  An approach based upon human rights; puts women, children, the elderly, the disabled, and each individual who get service at the center of everything. . It keeps us away from being too bureaucratic and being too thoughtfully. The Priority is human right. “
“We will conquer this fear”
Foggo said : “The only thing that will make an end of poverty is to harken and realize those who struggle in poverty. When you harken them, actually they are telling what to do”. Our citizens want kindergarten in a place where they will go with their slippers, not 5 kilometers away. That's why participation is so worthy. The Poverty is also to hide , it is apprehension, it is fear. We will conquer this fear. The Policy wonks need to regulate an explicit social policy and poverty policy. You should look multi dimensional to poverty. It should be evaluated in five extents: the education, the health, the food security, the living standards, the income sources and the capabilities of income generation.
