Headlines can be depressing but efforts to end extreme poverty are actually WORKING

Irish media and aid agencies simply aren’t getting the message across that global efforts to lift people out of poverty are working.

GIVE US MORE good news! That is what people in Ireland are saying to the Government and to Irish aid agencies.

A new opinion poll – undertaken by Amárach Research and presented at a conference in Dublin on 7 May – shows that people in Ireland are strong supporters of overseas aid but that they have strong doubts whether it really works, because they are not being shown the evidence.

This Thursday, staff of Amárach Research will present the findings of their latest research to a gathering of Irish Development NGOs. The research was commissioned by Dóchas, the umbrella group of Ireland’s Development NGOs, and involved a series of questions to a representative sample of 1,000 people across the country.

The researchers found that supporters of overseas aid outnumber critics three to one and that 79% of respondents feel overseas aid makes “some” or “a lot of difference” in poor countries. Yet 60% of people in Ireland don’t think the countries in Africa are any better off now than they were 20 years ago.

In other words, despite the fact that Irish aid agencies and the United Nations have lots of proof that efforts to end extreme poverty are working, people in Ireland do not hear about the huge progress being made. Irish media and aid agencies simply aren’t getting the message across that, for the first time in history, 90% of all primary school-age children are enrolled in schools or that in the last 30 years 700 million people – more than 100 times the population of the island of Ireland – have been lifted out of extreme poverty.

The message is not getting through.

Built-in bias in both the media and aid agencies

The fact that good news does not get noticed is not just an Irish problem: similar research in the USA found that a whopping 67% of people thought that extreme poverty increased over the last three decades, when in fact the portion of the world’s population living in poverty dropped from 52% to 21% over that period.

And this is in large part due to a built-in bias in both the media and aid agencies. The media tend to focus on “news” – the dramatic and the sudden – as opposed to slow-moving long-term trends that don’t make headlines. And aid agencies tend to focus on “problems” – the many global issues that have not yet been solved – and often forget to show the extent of their impact and successes of the past.

The new Amárach research to be presented on 7 May shows that we get our information about the world primarily from our peers and from the media. If media coverage of large parts of that world is confined to crises and catastrophes, it builds up a skewed picture of the world, giving the impression of as a vast place of suffering and corruption, urgently in need of aid workers or soldiers to sort it out. Similarly, if the bulk of aid agencies’ public communications is about emergencies and disasters, it blocks out the less dramatic but more important messages about the enormous progress that is being made despite the setbacks.

Negative news breeds powerlessness

The research by Amárach shows that not only do many people in Ireland view the developing world in much the same way as they did 30 years ago, most of us are feeling powerless to change it, too.

While the vast majority of people (73%) say they want to do their bit to change the world, half of us say it is “difficult to find opportunities to take action for positive change”. And despite a high level of awareness of the power of fairtrade products and ethical fashion, people in Ireland are 2.5 times more likely to agree rather than disagree with a statement that they “feel helpless in bringing about positive change”.

Most worryingly, very few people say they feel “confident” in their ability to bring about change: Only 33% of people believe they have some degree of influence on events in their local community, dropping to 19% when asked if they had influence on decisions affecting other parts of the world.

In short, the relentless stream of bad news is telling people that nothing ever changes, and that they do not matter in the bigger scheme of things. By not highlighting the positive news, we are in danger of creating a generation of people who don’t believe that citizens have a say or that nothing they do will succeed. And that is a grave danger for any society.

People are now healthier, wealthier and better informed than ever before

And this is where Irish charities come in. The Amárach research shows that the majority of people trust the information provided by charities and that they would support those organisations that show they are making an impact. People may be confused as to the precise causes of, and solutions to, global poverty, but it is clear that they are open to suggestions from Irish NGOs about what works and what needs to be done.

The time is therefore ripe for Irish NGOs to step up initiatives such as ‘The World’s Best News’, an online news service that aims to bust the myths about developing countries.

The World’s Best News, available on Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram and Flipboard is a news service with stories that do not make the mainstream news, but that are equally important, and often very surprising and that illustrate how determined citizens can make a difference in their own lives and their own societies.

The stories featured on “The World’s Best News” are a celebration of the fact that around the world, people are now healthier, wealthier and better informed than ever before. These stories of hope and change help us challenge our preconceptions, update our world view and help us make better decisions as citizens of an increasingly inter-connected global village.

Hans Zomer is Director of Dóchas, the Irish national platform of Development NGOs. Through Dóchas, Irish NGOs work together to improve the impact of their work, and to apply their collective experiences to inform government policy and practice.

    Trump is going to be the next U.S president. Not because he’s the right person for the job but because Americans are wising up to the crooked establishment. Trump may be many things but he’s not in the pockets of the big corporations or federal reserve.

    The protest vote against Hillary Clinton will get Trump over the line. I don’t like either candidate but Hillary has too much baggage and can’t debate. Trump has plenty of ammunition and will be lobbing grenades in her direction constantly during the face-off debates while playing to the American electorates basic Instincts.

    The constant erosion of living standards in America over the past 40 years along with the deep mistrust of politicians and the mainstream media is playing into the hands of Trump. The odds suggest that Hillary will be the next U.S president but they are way off the mark in my opinion and should be reversed.

    Alpanautica, Americans don’t care about Trumps past. He’s not part of the clique and has funded his own campaign so doesn’t owe anybody favours if he gets elected.

    After the false dawn of Obama, swooping in to give Americans “Hope” for a better future, nothing has changed! America, has the widest divide between the rich and poor among westernised countries but Obama promised that the average American would thrive under his Leadership but he was just another snake oil salesman, groomed by the establishment to convince the electorate that he was the saviour when in reality he was just a very convincing puppet but most Americans can see through the BS nowadays and in my humble opinion, it’s going to result in Trump being the next U.S president.

    Potential Trump voters won’t be swayed by any wisecracks from media luvvies like Colbert and co. Hillary is quite deluded if she thinks her feminist glass ceiling bull is going to inspire middle America. Economics, not fake identity politics, will win this election. What is interesting in recent polls is the amount of Bernie Sanders supporters who flatly refuse to support Clinton, a large swathe saying they would even vote for Trump instead.

This is the type of smug patronising arrogant nonsense that has become so typical of the liberal left.

    Look at the demographics Trump is attracting Dave. It’s the new working poor, utterly disillusioned with the failure of the Democratic Party and Obama’s failure to deliver on his promises of hope etc. Same phenomenon happened with the ‘Reagan Democrats’ Veteran Democrat Tipp O’Neill once remarked that Richard Nixon did more for workers than any Democrat President. The US Dems mirror the Labour Party here; still spouting the same old identity politics bluster while doing nothing to tackle problems of lower purchasing power, housing and healthcare.
