520			_a"Last fall [Nov. 2004], long before millions danced the night away at Live 8 concerts designed to spur action against Africa's poverty, experts were predicting that large numbers of people would go hungry this summer in the West African nation of Niger. And just a month before Jay-Z and Dave Matthews wowed huge crowds on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, a top U.N. official warned that 150,000 of Niger's children would die unless a major relief effort was mounted. His statement got almost no media coverage. Then, in mid-July [2005], the fly-strewn faces and swollen bellies of Niger's dying children began showing up on television. Now, emergency food relief is coming--just in time for some, too late for others." (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER) This article discusses the hefty gap between the good intentions of the world as it responds to 'crisis' situations and solving the much bigger, ongoing problem of extreme poverty in Niger.
