Getting to know your International Contacts

I have made some contacts, but I was redirected to other people so I am still waiting on a reply. I researched the countries and their poverty issues and I found some interesting details. The poverty line in Australia is based on a factor that Australia is a developed nation. The notion of poverty is significantly different than the Third World Country. The families who has an income lower than other families in Australia are considered poor. Most of the students of Australia fall below the poverty line. The other groups of people who live under the poverty line of Australia are the aboriginals. The Smith Family Report of 2001 has given a statistics on Australia poverty line which is: 14.9% children of Australia are poor, total percentages of Australians who live in poverty are 13%. percentages of single parent families who live in poverty is 21.8%. In 2008-09, the UK had 13 1/2 million people living who were living below the low-income threshold. This is around a fifth (22%) of the population, the number of children living in low-income households was 3.9 million in 2008/2009. The government short term goal was that child poverty be reduced to the number of children in low-income households by a quarter.
