'Zona Norte' is the 'other' part of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Comprising a huge area in the north of the city, this is an area of deprivation and poverty. I was first invited to visit the area in 2010. At the time most of the region was dominated by drug trade. My contact was the social project called IBISS who specialized on bringing support and social inclusion to those parts of the city that had no access to governmental support.

Poverty alleviation is one of the most important concerns in developing nations such as India. The only method of achieving it is fighting at the grass root level. Several Non profits across the country are functioning to achieve this, but the implementation of policies can happen only after support from the Government.

I visited this woman's simple store and in back she sat on the ground creating with skill hands these beautiful pots. Her face was humble and full of joy. I was moved in deep respect for her imagination and creativity.

The 2011 drought in Texas is making history. From LCRA.org, "The 11 months from October 2010 through August 2011 have been the driest for that 11-month period in Texas since 1895, when the state began keeping rainfall records. This summer in Texas has been the hottest in the country's history, according to the National Weather Service."

If it wasn't evident before that water is a luxury that we shouldn't take for granted than it certainly should be now.

Why is this child happy? She isn't living on the streets anymore.

According to the Austin/Travis County Ending Community Homelessness Coalition there are more than 500 homeless families in Austin and 90% of those are headed up by single mothers. Most of these women have a limited education and have suffered some form of abuse.
