"راهحلهای فقر باید از درون جامعه بیایند"
— Jacqueline Novogratz
Simplified Meaning:
Fixing problems related to poverty works best when the people in the community come up with the ideas themselves. They understand their own challenges and needs better than outsiders do. For example, if a neighborhood is struggling with not having enough food, the people who live there might know the best spots to start community gardens or how to organize food-sharing programs. When local folks take the lead, the solutions are more likely to fit their unique situation and actually work. It's like trying to fix a leaking roof—someone who lives in the house knows where the cracks are better than a visitor does. By owning the solutions, the community becomes stronger and more self-reliant.
