Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.
My vision of a world that works together is a world where people come together and unite despite their differences and backgrounds to achieve greatness and a world where peace prevails. A world where everyone has the same opportunities and chance to show their unique self. A world where poverty and inequality are no more and people can live healthy productive lives regardless of where they come from.
What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?
The most pressing issues facing the world today is poverty and climate change. Poverty is caused by different factors such as inequality, social systems and gender and due to the pandemic the poverty rates increased drastically. Climate change also contributes to poverty because of the shift weather patterns that cause a decrease in food production and therefore increasing the chances of food insecurity. Climate change has also contributed to the destruction of natural resources therefore increasing the poverty rates. Poverty is also caused by lack of economic opportunity and unemployment as most graduates find it difficult to secure employment after school thus they end up stuck because of lack of opportunities. Also unemployment has also precipitated criminal behavior as most young people end up turning to crime and drugs.
How do you feel these problems could best be solved?
I think these issues can be solved by bringing more awareness to the issues of climate change and its implications. To promote organic farming and use of organic fertilizers. Also more campaigns should be done to promote re-afforestation and afforestation. I feel like if the word is spread it would make a huge difference. The main cause of poverty is inquility so poverty can be lowered through equity. Also the youth should be encouraged to start their small projects and business instead of relying on employment alone. This will decrease the crime rates and depression amongst the youth.
