3.1 A world divided?

This lesson is an interactive exploration of quotes related to poverty and extreme poverty. It compares the life expectancy of third-world countries with that of developed countries and encourages discussion on whether resources are distributed evenly across the world. The lesson also delves into the concept of the five basic human needs—food, water, shelter, education, and healthcare—to prompt reflection on global inequalities and the challenges faced by less economically developed countries. Through engaging activities and discussions, students are encouraged to critically analyse the disparities in resource distribution and consider potential solutions to address poverty on a global scale.
