A lot has been done including confronting our governments to do something towards these goal but nothing forthwith has come through. Therefore, another question begs for an answer,"should we not use a multipronged approach whereby even as we urge our governments to assist, we also encourage the poor to start with the little they have to uplift their standards?". At first, this could be a tricky idea. But let us look at it this way. If for example we try to encourage small scale production and incorporate it to large scale production by helping those who have entrepreneurial skills and objectives, would we not have created an opportunity for that small scale entrepreneurs to improve on their lives and if possible that of others? This however is possible only if those involved are aware of the benefits of entrepreneurship. One of the club I belong to, "Students In Free Enterprise (SIFE) Egerton University chapter" has embarked on a mission to make this possible. This is by creating awareness of business activities and opportunity to the locals communities surrounding Egerton University while emphasizing the need for good business ethics. This has led to some businessmen and women improving on their earnings on a daily basis ans in turn investing more and more on other ventures. It involves using our classwork skills to change the world.
