2.5 Living and working in the urban informal economy: Working Out of Poverty
Street vendors in Mexico City; rickshaw pullers in Calcutta; jeepney drivers in Manila; garbage collectors in Bogotá; and roadside barbers in Durban – those who work on the streets or in the open air are the more visible occupational groups in the informal economy. The streets of cities, towns, and villages in most developing countries – and in many developed countries – are lined with barbers, cobblers, garbage collectors, waste recyclers, and vendors of vegetables, fruit, meat, fish, snack foods, and a myriad of nonperishable items ranging from locks and keys to soaps and detergents, and clothing. In many countries, head-loaders, cart pullers, bicycle peddlers, rickshaw pullers, and camel, bullock, or horse-cart drivers jostle to make their way down narrow village lanes or through the maze of traffic on city streets.
Funke Adenodi Akinbuli Helps Disabled in Africa Live With Dignity & Respect
If you didn't already know, most of Africa’s disabled [including the blind, paraplegic etc.] citizens live in deplorable conditions.

Sadly, a lot of Africa’s citizens have become desensitized to the deplorable conditions of the disabled partly because most are frustrated with economic and political conditions in the continent and are barely trying to keep heads above water. Others just have no idea where to begin helping and still most lack awareness of the plight of the disabled.

Working ON Your Business, and Not IN Your Business!
I have met a lot of women entrepreneurs who feel like they are 'drowning' because of all that they are doing, each and every day! They are spending so much time on the nitty-gritty details and so much energy working 'in' their business, that they have lost sight of the big picture - of the 'why' they are doing what they are doing.

A car can not be driven on the streets without a registration. This is the law in every state. Handling a new registration for a car is only a matter of getting certain documents together to take down to the area department of motor vehicles.
