Humanity starts with us

NOWADAYS, there are countless social media posts by the public concerning humanity issues. Poverty, conflicts in war-torn countries and refugees’ plight are among the popular topics that attract public attention. However, do people really care about humanitarianism? To what extent are people willing to sacrifice to uphold their so-called humanity sense?

Working in the humanitarian field has made me realise that it is not just concern that the world needs but action itself. Opinions uttered will be valuable if they are accompanied by action. All over the world, many families live with insufficient basic necessities, children are without educational aid, or even parents, to rely on. All these people need our “real” help, not just the concern expressed.
