Retool Earth #4 – Poverty

talk
05.03.2009

Will the rift between wealth and poverty continue to deepen and widen this century? Or will we achieve the millennium objectives by 2020? Or will climate factors pave the way to poverty? In Belgium, 15% of the population lives on or below the poverty line. In Brussels the percentage is even higher. Artists are not well off either.

The fourth academic study of the 21th century by the RITS delves into poverty: artists, academics, journalists, students and other wild creatures set the ball rolling in the direction of the public.
