Find out about poverty myths, learn the social, political and economic reasons that trap people in poverty, and discover both texts that perpetuate false poverty stories, and progressive texts that call for a change in the social narrative about this modern taboo.
Travel is never neutral: it is driven by intention, and those intentions shape how journeys are recorded and represented. In this section, we’ll explore seven key purposes of travel: self-discovery, curiosity about the ‘Other,’ spiritual or religious pilgrimage, searching for roots, seeking knowledge, experiencing awe, and escapism. Each purpose influences not only the traveller’s perspective but also the tone, style, and content of their documentation.
