Title
A penny for your thoughts.
Abstract
The author reflects on the Millennium Villages project, an initiative organized by the partnership between the Earth Institute at Columbia University and the United Nations, to solve poverty in Africa. He believes that such initiative will be successful, as it involves a sustainable local infrastructure that includes drinking wells, schools, fertilizers, and medical care. However, he asserts that improving education is crucial, as science education is rarely taught.
