DescriptionWhat does it truly mean to understand poverty from a human perspective?
This conversation with Marlo Fox, Executive Director of Think Tank, delves into the transformative power of the Cost of Poverty Experience (COPE) simulation, designed to enlighten participants on the lived realities of families facing poverty.
We will explore how COPE fosters empathy, challenges preconceived notions, and promotes collective action. The discussion highlights the significant roles of community and churches in poverty alleviation, advocating for relational approaches over transactional interactions. As COPE expands globally, including its recent reach into Canada, Marlo and the hosts emphasize the value of building meaningful, human-centred connections, particularly through tools like CarePortal. They also outline the mission of Think Tank, encouraging churches to enhance their community impact by focusing on relationships rather than programs. Tune in for insights on reshaping our understanding of poverty and exploring practical steps for community engagement.
