Description: In this episode, we delve into the complex issue of generational poverty and explore its underlying causes. Generational poverty is a phenomenon where families remain in poverty for multiple generations, with little to no upward mobility. It is a pervasive problem that affects millions of people worldwide, and its impact can be seen in the lack of access to education, healthcare, and basic necessities.
Our hosts, Drs Oteng, Finance Professionals and Health Practionors, provide valuable insights into the root causes of generational poverty. They discuss how structural and systemic factors, such as discriminatory policies and practices, contribute to the perpetuation of poverty across generations. Drs Oteng also shed light on the intergenerational transmission of poverty, where poverty is passed down from one generation to the next due to a lack of resources and opportunities.
