eTwinning project Tomorrow is now 2022/23

SDG 1

Our Project is SDG 1 which is part of the Agenda 2030 of the UN and aims at educating pupils to become social innovators eager to support our SDG (Zero Poverty) by becoming agents of change due to practical action. We would like to introduce pupils to SDG 1 Zero Poverty by empowering them to take action by doing team-based action projects on issues they care about. In this E-Book you will learn about young revelutionaires who already helped the UN lower the amount of people living in poverty with their initiatives, You will also learn a lot about our SDG which is to get rid or at least lower the amount of people living in poverty, learn about Organisations who support the same goal as SDG 1, You will also read about our own initiative and how we made it become reality. And how we evaluate our project experience. 

How does Caritas define poverty and what impact does it have on society? People who come to Caritas, who have particularly difficult living conditions, that means people who either can no longer afford electricity or can not afford their energy costs, people who actually have nothing to eat, who have no income and are almost always unemployed or who are also on basic security or even pensioners or even very young people who, for various reasons, have to live alone and simply through education or even a small salary do not have enough money to live. -How does Caritas support people in need and what programs and services does it offer? One of the biggest tasks we have with us is the counselling centre, which we have for both men and women and we also have special counselling for women, the counsellingmcentre is so that people who have problems, with applications to the social services or to the job center, if they have debts, if they have nothing to eat, if they have been fired, etc. then they come to us to report their problems and we try to see first, that the state gives the benefits that the people are entitled to, i. e. that we apply for the services together, first of all counts, that the money is available, no matter in what form it comes but people who say I have no money for various reasons and that no longer know what to eat and what to drink we also offer where anyone can come and they can have breakfast,1 time a week they can have lunch there,we also have smaller donations for the people who really have nothing to eat or have no hygiene items for small children and babies then we have Pempas, diapers, shower items (shower gel, shampoo). They can also shower there and wash laundry so it's really only for the people who don't have a roof over their heads or just get accommodation with friends so that the basic needs are covered. When we can't help people with things like debt we also mediate many to other services such as debt counseling or family help.

To what extent has the COVID-19 pandemic changed the poverty situation in Germany and how is Caritas reacting to it? So it has definitely changed, there are two things, one is that the counseling center had to close so that many people no longer found their way to us or it was very difficult, which of course also means that the people who then needed help did not get any help, i.e. they built up more debts, electricity debts etc. that they could not pay, the other thing is that many people were actually exposed to evictions or forced evictions after Corona, the wave of evicitions was twice as high, so in that respect the number of forced evictions and layoffs increased extremely sharply after Corona, so from 2021 to 2022 we had 20% more clients there were about 300 before and then suddenly 400. We now have to make sure that we can still look after and advise the people who have slipped into poverty because of Corona -What role does politics play in combating poverty and how can cooperation between Caritas and the government be improved? The government has a program that wants to abolish homelessness by 2030, but unfortunately it is only meant politically, because in reality not that many apartments can be built by 2030. The main problem that we have found is that there is not enough socially bound housing, anyone can build a house and rent it out as they wish, but certain rules are needed for social matters, which means there is rent that the job center can still pay, but only if the number of square meters and the price is below a limit, if it is too much the job center will not pay , there are too few of these apartments, so much more social housing area would have to be created, i.e. apartments that are so big that the job center can still pay for them, only then can people with little or no income live there at all.

The Tafel e.V. is a non-profit organization in Germany dedicated to the fight against poverty and food waste. Their main task is to collect surplus food from supermarkets, food manufacturers and other establishments and distribute it to people in need. Here are some of the activities of Tafel e.V.: Food collection: The Tafel e.V. collects food that is donated by supermarkets, bakeries, restaurants and other companies. These foods might otherwise have been wasted even though they are still edible. Food distribution: The collected food is passed on to the needy by the food bank organizations. This mostly takes the form of food distribution where people who are financially disadvantaged can receive food. Social offers: The Tafel e.V. often offers more than just food aid. They also organize supplementary social offers such as soup kitchens, clothing stores, counseling services and educational offers to support people in difficult life situations. Voluntary work: The Tafel e.V. relies on the support of volunteers. Volunteers are involved in collecting food, sorting donations, distributing to those in need, and other organizational tasks.

UNICEF (United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund) is an organization of the United Nations that works for the well-being of children worldwide. Its main goal is to protect and promote the survival and development of children in all parts of the world.

UNICEF's main activities can be divided into several areas: 1.	Health and Nutrition: UNICEF works to ensure children have access to basic health care. They support the vaccination program, treating diseases such as malaria and HIV/AIDS and promoting healthy eating. 2.&nbsp; Education: UNICEF is committed to ensuring access to quality education for all children. You support the construction of schools, the training of teachers and the provision of learning materials. UNICEF also promotes measures to get girls and disadvantaged children into school. 3. &nbsp; Protection from violence and exploitation: UNICEF works to protect children from violence, abuse, exploitation and neglect. They support the program to prevent child labour, child trafficking, child marriage and child soldiers. UNICEF also helps to reintegrate former child soldiers into society. 4. &nbsp; Water, Sanitation and Hygiene: UNICEF works to improve access to safe drinking water, adequate sanitation and hygiene practices. You support the construction of wells, the installation of sanitation facilities in schools and communities, and education about hygiene practices. 5. &nbsp; Emergency Response: In times of crises and natural disasters, UNICEF provides emergency relief to ensure the survival and well-being of children. They provide food, medical care, clean water and shelter for children in need. UNICEF is funded by voluntary contributions from governments, private donors, corporations and other partners. They work closely with governments, other UN agencies, non-governmental organizations and local communities to implement their programme. Overall, UNICEF strives to protect the rights and well-being of all children and ensure they are able to reach their full developmental potential.

Ludwig Philipp Albert Schweitzer was a German-French doctor, philosopher, Protestant theologian, organist, musicologist and pacifist. He lived from 1875 until 1965 and is considered one of the most important thinkers of the 20th century. Schweitzer, founded a hospital in Lambaréné in Central African Gabon.

Where he helped sick people who couldn’t afford getting help. Even today his hospital is still used as a place to help people who cannot affort going anywhere else. He also told people to take action and help poor people all around the World for which he got the Nobel peace price in 1952. One of Albert Schweizers famous quotes is ,, Who saw the poorest people on this earth, feels rich enough to help them!” This quote shows how much he wanted to help people living in poverty. Which is why he is such a great role model.

&nbsp;SDG 1 refers to the first Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) set by the United Nations. Its overall objective is to "End poverty in all its forms everywhere." Target 1.5 specifically aims to build the resilience of the poor and those in vulnerable situations to various economic, social, and environmental shocks and disasters. It focuses on the need to develop appropriate social protection systems and measures to support individuals and households in poverty and vulnerability. To achieve Target 1.5, several strategies and actions can be implemented: 1.	Strengthening social protection systems: Governments can establish or improve social safety nets, such as cash transfer programs, social insurance schemes, and employment guarantee programs. These measures provide direct support to people living in poverty and help them cope with economic shocks and disasters. 2.	Access to basic services: Ensuring access to essential services like healthcare, education, clean water, sanitation, and housing is crucial. Investing in infrastructure and facilities in marginalized areas can help reduce vulnerability and improve the resilience of individuals and communities. 3.	Disaster risk reduction and management: Implementing effective disaster risk reduction measures and early warning systems can help prevent and mitigate the impact of disasters on vulnerable populations. This involves investing in infrastructure resilience, community-based disaster preparedness, and providing timely assistance during and after disasters. 4.	Empowerment and capacity-building: Equipping individuals with skills, knowledge, and resources can enhance their resilience to shocks and disasters. Promoting education, vocational training, financial inclusion, and entrepreneurship opportunities can empower people to improve their livelihoods and lift themselves out of poverty.

5.	Inclusive economic growth: Fostering an enabling environment for inclusive and sustainable economic growth is crucial. This involves promoting job creation, supporting small and medium-sized enterprises, and ensuring equitable access to productive resources, markets, and financial services for all. 6.	International cooperation and support: Global partnerships and collaboration are essential to address poverty and vulnerability. Developed countries can provide financial and technical assistance to support developing nations in implementing poverty eradication programs, building resilience, and achieving sustainable development.

&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The students on the Albert-Schweitzer Geschwister-Scholl-Gymnasium have the opportunity to go to the library and borrow some books. This is for us normal but for some students in other countries they wish they had a library. So we can be happy and appreciate to have a library to read books and become a little bit smarter and educate ourselves. &nbsp;

Our Campaign: Charity Run Our Idea was to do a charity run at our school. We first went to the director of our School and asked for permission and what date we could hold it on, she told us that we could do it on the 20.06.23 which is the last tuesday before the summer holidays because one of the classes above us was holding their own charity run that day. We are now planning on designing posters. We also still need to talk to the student council since they are the ones that planned the charity run for one of the classes above us, we need to tell them that we are also planning on doing a charity run on the same day and we need to ask how we should advertise it so that students from year 9 will participate. The charity run will only be for students of year 9 since it would take to much time to preprare one for the whole school. The way it works is that each round that a student runs the parents, grandparents or family donate some money. We will handout a letter or send a message on sdui where whoever is going to donate the money writes down how much they are willing to donate per round. After the run is over the students give us the amount of money they collected and we will then donate it to a charity that does something against poverty (we still haven’t decided which one we will donate to). The goal of this campaign is to get as many students as possible to take action against poverty. The beneficiaries of the charity run are people living in poverty and the students that took part since they did something good for our society.

(Article) Tafel e.V. Germany is a nonprofit organization that has played a significant role in helping people in need in Germany for many years. With its network of Tafeln in cities and towns across the country, Tafel e.V. works to fight hunger, reduce food waste and promote social participation. This article takes a look at the important work of Tafel e.V. Germany and its importance to society. Tafel e.V. Deutschland was founded in 1993 and has since grown to become one of the largest charities in Germany. Its goal is to collect surplus but still edible food from supermarkets, restaurants and other vendors and pass it on to people in need. In doing so, Tafel e.V. works closely with local institutions, such as homeless shelters, refugee homes or social welfare offices, to ensure that the food gets to the people who need it most. Tafel e.V. Deutschland operates several hundred food banks across Germany that regularly collect, sort and distribute food to those in need. Numerous volunteers are involved in this work, showing great commitment to the good cause. They take care of collecting the food, checking its quality and ensuring that it is distributed to people fairly and efficiently. Tafel e.V. Deutschland thus plays an important role in preventing food waste and at the same time contributes to the fight against poverty. The work of Tafel e.V. Deutschland has enormous social significance for many people in Germany. It enables people with scarce financial resources to obtain regular food supplies and meet their daily needs. For low-income families or single parents in particular, support from Tafel e.V. can be a great relief and help them use their financial resources for other important expenses, such as rent or education. In addition, Tafel e.V. also promotes social participation and integration. By working together with various institutions, people from different social classes and cultures come into contact with each other. This can reduce prejudices and strengthen understanding for each other. Tafel e.V. thus creates not only material support, but also a platform for social exchange and solidarity among people. This can reduce prejudices and strengthen understanding for each other. Tafel e.V. thus creates not only material support, but also a platform for social exchange and solidarity among people.

Die Tafel e.V. Germany: An important support for people in need&nbsp;

Documentation And today I had the nice opportunity to visit the Tafel e.V Germany. I was warmly welcomed and I could meet some employees. I was shown many areas of the table, starting with the counter there is the cash register and the customers have the opportunity to take a little fresh fruit and vegetables for free. Then we went to the area where the customers get bread, meat, fish, etc.. There are also three refrigerated shelves so that some goods do not rot.&nbsp; Customers start getting goods from the right side and then usually have to move more and more to the left to get more food until they reach the end. Now I was shown the office of the first chairwoman Mrs. Hartel in her office she does everything possible to keep the store together that means she has to organize many things for example: fundraising, checks of stores or even interviews. In her office we then also conducted the interview.

What is the task of the 1st chairwoman Mrs. Hartel? She has to organize everything, when donations are made, for example from Butarek or Linos Club, which always donate a lot, or other institutions, they go to the Tafel with a check and the Tafel can then buy food with it.&nbsp; Why did Mrs. Hartel decide to do this job? She has been doing it for nine years and has been the chairwoman of Tafel e.V. Deutschland for two years. She just likes doing it, all the employees like doing it, otherwise it wouldn't work. The drivers and employees feel very comfortable there and want to help the poor people. What is the goal of the Tafel e.V Germany ? Jobcenter sends all the needy people to the Tafel and the goal is to help these people so that they are first well supplied and the rest will follow. Whether they get a job later, most do not stay long at the table, some have been there for a long time, some stay only a year and go back to their country or find work somewhere then they fall out of course at the table. Do you think your job helps in the fight against poverty? The Tafel has almost only grateful customers, who say: "If it weren't for the Tafel, we would be much worse off". Food has become very expensive here and some have little pension and the neediness is very high here. At the Tafel they get quite a lot already for two euros (one, two people).

Should wealthy people also make arrangements against the poor in order to help? Yes in any case, but of course you can not generalize, so you have to do it with pleasure. If you don't like to do it, it's useless, you have to be ready to work not only with money but also with strength and love. We make this profession and get no money for it. How many people do you think you have helped? She does not know. There are too many and in 20 years there have been far too many.&nbsp; What is your experience in this profession? Most of them are very grateful and that's what the customers keep saying. In the rich Germany there should not be a Tafel. It is the way it is now, but we are very happy when they thank us for working here. Of course, there are also some who are dissatisfied and complain, so that we then have to kick them out. But this happens very rarely.&nbsp; How can young people help against poverty? It's really only about organization, that one is active there and sacrifices his free time and helps against poverty. That you support individuals, there are many organizations where you can help. Of course, you don't have to help much, but a few hours would make a big difference. What are her goals for the future? She wishes that all the beneficiaries go home happy and that no one suffers from hunger and that we continue to manage everything with the donors as before.

-How does Caritas deal with the fact that there are often difficulties in getting people to accept help? People are ashamed to come to us because they have only recently been living in poverty. We would like to go to poor areas and help people there and educate them but at the moment it is not possible because we are understaffed. -Why did you decide to work at Caritas? Students used to have to do the civilian service but since I did not want to go to the Bundeswehr I went to a retirement home. After that I studied and came across Caritas. I work at Caritas because you have many opportunities there, because it is very big in Germany, because Caritas is a good employer and because you earn a lot of money.

Hello and today I will be presenting SDG 1 of the Agenda 2030 created by the UN. SDG 1 is called No poverty its goal is to get rid of or at least decrease the amount of people living in poverty. But more specifically I will be talking about Target 1.5 of SDG 1. Target 1.5 focuses on building the resilience of the poor and those in vulnerable situations and reducing their exposure and vulnerability to climate-related extrem events and other economic,social and environmental shocks and disasters. So in other words Target 1.5 goal is to help poor people living in cities or countrys with a high vulnerability to shocks and disasters of any kind to become more resilient to these kind of events. Now you might be asking how people living in areas with a high vulnerability to shocks and disasters become poor?&nbsp; They become poor because they are often forced to use their already limited money to buffer disaster losses which only drives them further into poverty, they have to use their own assets because in these areas there often is a lack of access to insurance and social protection. Currently you will probably be asking why poor people decide to live in cities or countries that are prone to disaster? It is simply because these places offer easier access to jobs,schools,health care facilities, and social networks since a lot of people move out of areas like the ones I am talking about. One of the other main reason is because the houses are cheaper since the chance of them being destroyed is higher than in places not prone to disasters and shocks. Poor people living in developing countries may also be pushed into risky places because the availability of land with appropriate access to jobs and services is low since developing countries with informal markets, land scarcity can be particularly acute and land markets might function poorly.

Our campaign will consist of a charity run. We want to bring together the EF and the ninth year and carry out the donation run on the Fc Marl sports field. The donation run will last 45 minutes and per round the current students donate a small amount to a non-profit organisation. We will give the students a registration form 2 weeks before the donation run, where they can enter their donors (parents, siblings, grandparents) their amount of how much they donate per round. In addition, we will create some advertising posters so that we can draw attention to our campaign. The goal of the donation run is to draw attention to poverty so that we and our school can contribute a small part to combatting poverty on our earth. We will donate the amount collected money to ,,Welt hunger Hilfe“ &nbsp;that fights against poverty. The priority of this campaign is of course the people who live in poverty, we want to support them a little with our donation run to get out of this terrible situation.

In one of the lessons that we recently had we went looking around our School for things that are normal for us but are Privileges for others. So I took a Photograph of our School Cafeteria because not all Schools have one. Our School Cafeteria is a Privilege since it sells food and drinks to students who for example forgot their food at home, don‘t have time in the morning to make their own Breakfast or just like the food at the Cafeteria more. But some Schools don‘t have a Cafeteria and so it could be that some Students don‘t eat until they get home from School which isn‘t very healthy and the Students won‘t be able to do their best in Class because they can‘t focus since they are hungry. Even at our School the prices for the food that they sell in the Cafeteria are getting more expensive for example a Sandwich that used to cost 70 cents now cost a Euro and 10 cents. This could or maybe even is already causing a Problem for Students that cannot affort getting food there anymore.

Which is why we could maybe sell some of the leftovers from the day before if there are any for a bit less. So that it can be even more affordable for the students that are hungry and can‘t afford getting the food and drinks with the prices that they have now.

Poverty in Germany 🇩🇪

Many people around the world conjunct one thing: Poverty. Poverty is a huge problem in our world. Almost 750 million people are affected of it, including 385 million children. Poverty describes a situation, where mangel is on order of the people. The affected people have no resources, in some cases of poverty the people need to walk 100 kilometres to get water and food. This is absolute poverty when you can’t satisfy your own basic needs. The ,,Weltbank“ says the poverty line is located at 2,15 US-Dollar pro head and day. Poverty can have many reasons like social acceptance, political, ecological and economic conditions. Poverty can have a very bad impact on people, it can be life- threatening (less health care till malnutrition). If they have the resources the most people can’t buy it cause it is way too expensive. In Europe poverty still a problem. The share of poverty in 2020 was around 22%. The country with the most people living in poverty is in Kosovo (46,2%) and the least amount of poverty in Europe is in Czech (11,9%). In Germany, however, there is relative poverty, which is called social inequality. Every fifth kid (2,9 million)and every fourth adult in the age of 18-25 (1,55) threatened from poverty. The affected people can hardly or not at all participate in social life, because their entire money goes on it for the basic needs. Poverty in Germany also shows that many are not denied access to higher education. This can often lead to problems for late working life: no secure income and over- indebtedness. Children who live in poverty suffer particularly strongly from it. They usually don’t even have a hot meal a day and often have poor educational opportunities. Single parents, employees in the low-wage sector, pensioners, people with a migration background as well as families with more then two children are particularly at risk of poverty .

Our Idea was to do a charity run at our school. We first went to the director of our School and asked for permission and what date we could hold it on, she told us that we could do it on the 20.06.23 which is the last tuesday before the summer holidays because one of the classes above us was holding their own charity run that day. We are now planning on designing posters. We also still need to talk to the student council since they are the ones that planned the charity run for one of the classes above us, we need to tell them that we are also planning on doing a charity run on the same day and we need to ask how we should advertise it so that students from year 9 will participate. The charity run will only be for students of year 9 since it would take to much time to preprare one for the whole school. The way it works is that each round that a student runs the parents, grandparents or family donate some money. We will handout a letter or send a message on sdui where whoever is going to donate the money writes down how much they are willing to donate per round. After the run is over the students give us the amount of money they collected and we will then donate it to a charity that does something against poverty (we still haven’t decided which one we will donate to). The goal of this campaign is to get as many students as possible to take action against poverty. The beneficiaries of the charity run are people living in poverty and the students that took part since they did something good for our society.
