ResponderEliminarHi classmates!
ResponderEliminarNowadays, I´m doing a documentary about the airports. Concretely, I´m reflexing about this space and the different relationships that take place in their waiting areas and airside. It is for this reason that I´ve found this social reportage published in Daily Mail which aim is to show the lives of people living in these areas.
I hope you enjoy it!

Dominican Republic. Where is the money?
ResponderEliminarThis is a report made with de support of OXFAM and published by Jot Down
It shows the way of living in Dominican Republic that is a very rich country –the paradise-, where there is a 40% of population living below the poverty line. Which is the reason? The reason is always political corruption.
Most of stereotypes are true. Life is slow and calm everywhere. Nobody is stressed. All people seem to be happy. They are always singing and dancing. But there are a great quantity of crimes and guns are permitted for everyone. There are a lot of soldiers in the streets, and many people say they are criminal too.
Most of Dominican mothers are single. They have a lot of children to feed and besides the have to take care of her parents too. So it’s important to support mothers as OXFAM does by supporting projects of fair trade.
