The filmmaker answers the question through an historical narrative.
Use the following paragraph outline to write a (600-700 word) essay:

- List the some policy changes proposed in the film to end poverty and give a reason for or against the adoption of at least three of them.
- Reflect on VALUES: According to this film, what values have created the problem of poverty and what values must be promoted to solve the problem? Do you agree or disagree with the films analysis?
- Poverty and you: How did the film make you feel? Tell your story. What is your experience (causes and consequences) of poverty and/or wealth? What is your level of concern about the problem? What would you be willing or not willing to do to solve it?
- What evidence/rationale can you draw from the film to (a) support and (b) challenge the proposal that global citizenship is the best way forward in the 21st century? (Do not skip this question, since its the most important part of this reflection.)
