This video explores the concept of social welfare as a potential solution to poverty. It begins by defining social welfare from first principles, highlighting its goal to provide assistance to those in need and improve the well-being of vulnerable populations. The video discusses how social welfare can help solve poverty through financial aid and access to essential services, acting as a safety net during hard times. It also considers criticisms that argue social welfare may foster dependency and pose economic challenges. Throughout, the video identifies who benefits from and who might be disadvantaged by implementing social welfare, discusses its feasibility, and examines real-world examples like the SNAP program in the United States. Finally, it advises passionate students on key skills for contributing to this field, including policy analysis, data research, and advocacy.
