3.2 Investing in jobs and the community: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| Spending on infrastructure represents about 20 per cent of total investment
in developing countries, and from 40 to 60 per cent of public investment,
according to the World Bank. A reorientation of policies on
infrastructure investment to ensure that technically viable and cost-effective
employment-intensive options are used speeds the reduction of poverty by
generating productive and decent employment. The challenge is to develop
the appropriate mix of capital- and employment-intensive investment techniques
according to each country’s needs and resources. |

How Disasters Can Teach Lessons of Gratitude
| |
| In the world today, we encounter a lot of negativity, pain, stress and natural disasters. Many days, we wake up with far too much to do, far too much to think about, far too many concerns, and far too many problems.
In Virginia where I live, in the span of less than one week, we experienced a "terrible triad:" an earthquake, a tornado and Hurricane Irene; three major natural disasters capable of causing devastation, tragedies, and causalities.
So many of us went through life's inconveniences facing another triad of problems: no lights, no air-conditioning, no television.
Having witnessed three natural disasters in one week has made me readily come to believe that it is a good idea to start each day with inspiration and gratitude to help us make it through the day with positive thoughts. This helps to remain focused on your goals. |
