Could you survive?

A disproportionate number of women live in extreme poverty in the world.  The reasons are as diverse as the women.  The kinds of decisions these women must make each day are often life-threatening, not only for them but for their children and often girls' education is the first thing cut.

See if you could survive a month in their huts.  Be sure to read the many notes that this activity provides, they have some great insight into the challenges and complications of extreme poverty.  And, I encourage you to play until you win and see what kinds of decisions you must make.  Be warned, this one is harder than the domestic poverty challenge.
