Violence and the Benevolent Gift: Rethinking Relationships – Saturday June 10

Moraene Roberts is an ATD Fourth World activist living in the UK.

Moraene Roberts confirms that poverty is an act of violence against people in poverty, and that a violation is committed when a person’s right to live a normal life is violated. This leads to anger.

Speaking from her own life experience and those of people living in poverty she has met, Ms. Roberts invites researchers and academics to recognize the knowledge and life experience of those living in extreme poverty and to merge their knowledge together.
