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. Most are unemployed and can be found on Africa’s major streets and highways placing themselves in harm’s way as they beg for money to meet their basic needs. Rarely will you find a paraplegic in Africa, for example, with necessary medical equipment i.e. wheelchair. Most navigate the streets and freeways on their hands. 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.
