Blog Action Day 2008 - Poverty

Blog Action Day is an annual nonprofit event that aims to unite the world's bloggers, podcasters and videocasters, to post about the same issue on the same day. Our aim is to raise awareness and trigger a global discussion.

One Issue, Thousands of Voices

Global issues like poverty are extremely complex. There is no simple, clear answer. By asking thousands of different people to give their viewpoints and opinions, Blog Action Day creates an extraordinary lens through which to view these issues. Each blogger brings their own perspective and ideas. Each blogger posts relating to their own blog topic. And each blogger engages their audience differently.

so what are YOU gonna do?

Well I am already doing a lot of volunteer work. I have already volunteered for more than 2 years for these type of work and still volunteering besides my uni and work! And my videos already inspired some other friends who are starting a bigger video projects for poverty to give some important messages to some VIP around the world. Just making these videos also have great effect on people to start thinking, which is greatly appreciated.Thanks for asking!

Furthermore, the question should really be "what are WE gonna do?" since this issue should concern every human being. We need global solutions for our global problems and that firstly comes from unity. WE should UNITE to solve our problems and that requires a long explanation, which wouldn't fit here!

Fierce.

well I think it is the music I used gives that impression more, if u look at my other video which is done in Turkish but music makes u feel sad. However, Poverty in itself is "fierce" and should not exist!
