As you know the objectives of G8 are to: * Improve trade and finance * Strengthen the global economy * Promote peace and democracy * Prevent and resolve conflicts in developing countries. Africa, in particular, has benefited from aid from the G8 countries which have helped to achieve each of these 4 objectives. It is believed that to eradicate poverty economic growth is a necessary (but not sufficient) as the DFID outlines. And economic growth is what the G8 concentrate on because it is in this manner that poverty will be reduced and REMAIN low. We witnessed a fall in the number of people in poverty from 40% to 21% from 1981-2001. And there continues to be a decline and this is due to the help of the G8 countries and other organisations. But as the total world population increasing (must faster in developing countries) it may become harder to sustain this decreasing level of people living in poverty.

Poverty has always been with us. Think of the countries where floods, fire, tsunamis and earthquakes occur.
