BASIC NEEDS
BASIC NEEDS OF LIFE
“The basic goods and services (food, shelter, clothing, sanitation, education, etc.) necessary for a minimum standard of living."
Basic needs ...
...are generally defined in terms of a minimal list of elements that human beings necessitate, in order to fulfill basic requirements and achieve a decent life.
Typically, the list includes basic commodities, such as food, clothing, and shelter, as well as essential services, as access to drinking water, to sanitation, to education, to healthcare facilities, and to public transportation.
Broader definitions of basic needs further extend the attention to other psychological and social needs – such as participation, self-reliance, autonomy, and self-expression.
We all have needs...
...Physical, social, emotional and spiritual.
Defining basic needs is one of the key approaches to the measurement of absolute poverty in developing countries.
It attempts to define the absolute minimum resources necessary for long-term physical well-being, usually in terms of consumption of goods.
The poverty line is then defined as the amount of income required to satisfy those needs.
A traditional list of immediate basic needs is food (including water), shelter, and clothing.
Many modern lists emphasize that the minimum level of consumption of basic needs also includes sanitation, education, health care and Faith.
We work with churches or other organizations that provide social integration, friendship, adoption, work, freelances services and much more.
Love and Belonging Needs
Once the physical survival and safety needs are being regularly met, a need for love, affection and belonging begin to emerge.
People hunger for affectionate relationships and they want to be somewhat needed in a group or in the society.
Some of these needs include:
Family or belonging – the need to belong to a group, family, religion, town or class.
Acceptance and understanding – the need to feel alright and to know that others accept you as you are.
Loving and affection – the need both to get and give love.
Intimacy – the need to share inner thoughts with others in close, caring ways.
