What do adults miss when we decide what is worth talking about?

Listening to children means asking what matters to them and giving those topics space.

What could we learn if children had more say in the conversation?

October 13th
🀲 Community matters.
Ending poverty cannot be left to people experiencing poverty themselves, nor to charities or services alone.
It requires communities, policymakers, public bodies, civil society and people with lived experience working together.
Uniting communities means recognising that poverty concerns all of us.
πŸ“ Bring your presence and solidarity to the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th for UN Poverty Day.

October 12th
πŸ“’ Sometimes one person's testimony can say more than pages of statistics.
We need the figures. We need the research. We need the evidence.
But we must also hear the voices of people who know poverty and homelessness from lived experience.
Statistics tell us the scale. People tell us what it means.
πŸ“ Join us at the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th, where lived experience and testimony will be at the heart of UN Poverty Day.

🏠 A home provides more than shelter.
Stable housing can support education, employment, wellbeing, family life and participation in the community.
When housing is insecure, every other part of life can become insecure too.
Guaranteeing adequate housing helps create the foundations on which people can flourish. 🌱

❀️ Respect costs nothing β€” but its absence carries a terrible cost.
People experiencing homelessness and poverty can encounter judgement, stigma and exclusion alongside their material hardship.
No person's bank balance, address or housing status determines their worth.
Every person deserves to be treated with dignity.
πŸ“ Join us at the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th as we stand together for dignity and respect.

πŸ—£οΈ β€œListen to us, not just about us.”
One of the most important principles in tackling poverty is participation.
People experiencing poverty and homelessness must have meaningful opportunities to influence the decisions that affect their homes, families and communities.
Their experience is expertise.
πŸ“ Come and listen with us at the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th, UN Poverty Day.

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ What does an adequate home mean?
A place to sleep safely. A place to cook a meal. A place for children to study. A place to invite a friend. A place where you can close the door and know: this is home. 🏠
These are not extravagant expectations. They are fundamental to human dignity.
πŸ“ Join us at the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th as we call for an adequate home for everyone.

🏘️ Homelessness is not only sleeping on the street.
It can mean emergency accommodation, temporary rooms, overcrowding, moving repeatedly or living every day with the fear that your accommodation may disappear.
To understand homelessness, we must listen to the many different experiences hidden behind the word.
πŸ“ Stand in solidarity with us at the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th for UN Poverty Day.

🧑 There is extraordinary resilience in our communities.
Every day, people facing homelessness, poverty and exclusion find ways to care for their families, support neighbours and keep going in extraordinarily difficult circumstances.
We honour that resilience β€” while remembering that people should not have to be extraordinarily resilient simply to secure the basics of life.
πŸ“ Join our UN Poverty Day gathering at the Famine Stone at 11 a.m. on October 17th.
