According to World Bank, to meet the very basic needs an adult needs $1.25 dollar a day. This implies people who earn less than this fall under extreme poverty category. Around 1.4 billion which is almost one-sixth of the world&rsquo;s population live in extreme poverty. Humanitarian Aid Trust aims to help those people by proving access to a permanent source of income by which at least they could earn their basic needs. In order to help people of this category HAT emphasises the following capacity building/employment activities. It also provides the targeted beneficiaries with a freedom of choice either capacity building training or self-employment through finance. </span></p>
