Against Poverty.

Now that we've been on the road for quite some time, Jørgen is starting to feel it in his body. His $10 shoes seems to hold, but his feet are falling appart from the inside! And as each step is reminding him of this pain, we run out of money, which is problem that had to be dealt with urgently.

This episode of Walk of Causes is dedicated to poverty. Fundamentally, poverty is a denial of choices and opportunities, a violation of human dignity. Today, more than 1.7 billion people are estimated to live under absolute poverty, which means that they cannot afford basic human needs, such as clean water, proper nutrition, basic health care, clothes and shelter. Every day 17.000 children die from hunger.

  • @giorgino222 What do you mean there are better things to show from Lebanon? We wanted to walk across this country, from North to South, and document the people we met on the way. We chose to walk in the mountains, from village to village. If this means that we come across mostly syrian people on the way, or poor villages, well, then this is what you get to see if you walk in the mountains of Lebanon. Simple as that.

see all

  • hahaha SHE'S my brother 

  • when do you guys get to shower?!

  • @MsElissa666 You're wrong... they're not showing the true side of Lebanon. A true Lebanese shows the real Lebanon. Lebanon's not that poor you know, and those men right at about 2:45 were syrians/egyptians obviously, NOT LEBANESE. It's a fun series though...

  • where is the next episod?
