Tarih:  Date

In the fourth episode of TEDU Gender Podcast, a volunteer member of our center Dr. Burcu Sarı Karademir is talking with esteemed Hacer Foggo, Founder of Deep Poverty Network. She begins by reminding the meaning and importance of defining the concept of deep poverty as a violation of human rights. Afterwards, it is underlined that poverty is a symptom of a multidimensional structural problem and it is reminded that the solution should be structural and rights-based. Topics such as women's poverty, child poverty, poverty, and gender roles, the necessity of understanding the existence of different insecurities arising from poverty in the family, food security, and basic nutrition in schools are discussed. Finally, Hacer Foggo's journey of solidarity and hope, which will begin with our opening up to each other, ends with messages of hope.
