About

Welcome to Learn About Poverty, World Visions resource blog for Blog Action Day. When we heard that Blog Action Day was going to be focused on poverty this year, we sat bolt upright in our chair and immediately asked ourselves “how can we participate in this?”

And so, we present to you Learn About Poverty. You’ll find on this site plenty of photos, videos, interviews and stories from around the World Vision International partnership. Some of the great content in the site, such as our interviews with World Vision staffers about the current Global Food Crisis, provides a real insight into how we go about our work as both an organisation, and individuals. Further in, you’ll find some amazing photos (which even we didn’t know we had) from some of our in-country photographers, showing for the first time images captured from some of the most desperate places on earth.

So look, enjoy, and then harvest. Everything you see here is for sharing and linking. In the name of blogging, we would appreciate it if you could link back to us when you use any of our resources, to help spread the message about both Blog Action Day, and our organisation. If you’re still unsure, Our Creative Commons license should help answer any questions about how to treat any of the content you find here.

Good luck for Blog Action Day and spreading the message,

Steve and Joely

WV Staffers and Blog Action Day fans.
