What 1 Euro can do?
If you want to know another example of the real value of money in developing countries, you should check this article from “El País” (in Spanish) about what you could do with 1 Euro. Just for your information: a family could buy a chicken and a half in Ecuador, or one day of drinking water for a population of 2600 in Angola.
In a previous post I talk about the idea of a kind of a Fair IT trade (people in developed countries paying a bit extra money for the services, ensuring the development of specific IT projects in developing countries). With these figures it has sense to make it. Perhaps some cents would be enough (the “missing” cent in the price of some products: 39.99 turns to 40 and so on).
