Another Life

In 2000, every UN state agreed on eight Millennium Development Goals. Extreme poverty and hunger were to be eradicated, primary education was to be offered to all, gender equality promoted and the battle intensified against HIV/AIDS and other diseases.In 2005, Nick Danziger was commissioned by the charity World Vision to visit eight countries and see what effect the goals were having on people`s lives. Nick realized that one journey wasn`t going to be enough, so he returned five years later – and again in 2015 with author Rory MacLean – to assemble an stark portrait of forty lives lived on the edge: in India, Cambodia, Zambia, Uganda, Niger, Honduras, Bolivia and Armenia.Some of the women and children Nick and Rory followed have died through sickness and poverty. One has become the most successful entrepreneur her African border town has ever known. Another – who once dreamed of becoming a banker – is now a gang member in the world`s murder capital. This book stands as a record of courage and humanity, as well as a reminder of the work that still needs to be done.
