In chapter 11, the issue is poverty and it also discusses microcredit. Microcredit is a program that provides women who live in poverty with an oppertunity to create their own prosperity. There are many different organizations such as DiscoverHOpe that train women in entrepreneurship so those living in developing nations can shape their own lives.

It is believed that gender inequality is to blame for these conditions, as well as a lack of education.
