AFRICA THE WORLD'S POOREST CONTINENT

           Poverty is something that is           unfortunately  common in today’s world

 

Africa has the richest natural resources and yet we are poor and stagnant in development. Africa includes some of the poorest countries in the world.  

 In Africa, poverty is something that people can not avoid no matter how hard they try.

 

What causes poverty?

 There are many reasons why this would occur, the most prevalent are:

 

•   -Corruption:  It occurs in Africa when the governments do not use money responsibly and instead use it for themselves.

 

 

-Lacks of resources in the region

Poor land utilization:  Some people just use the land to grow crops which are just enough for subsistence survival.

•  Nothing goes to the market for sale.

 

• Civils wars and unending political conflicts:

Africa is popular for its civil wars, either between neighboring countries or within the same country.

 

•   Poor infrastructure:

Africa has a very poor infrastructure set up. They have poor roads, railways and water systems.

 

•  Diseases and poor health:

When a household is affected by any of the diseases, the little resources are spent on treating the sick.

 

 

      

 These are some posible causes of poverty in Africa. 

                          WHAT IS THE TRUE?

• NOT EVERYONE LIVE IN A BEAUTIFUL HOUSE



• NOT EVERYONE EATS A MEAL 3 TIMES A DAY



• THEY LIVE IN AN EXTREME POVERTY

 



• EACH YEAR, MORE THAN 8 MILLION PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD DIE BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO POOR TO STAY ALIVE.

 



GO HUNGRY EACH DAY.

CHILDREN CAN NOT GO TO SCHOOL

BECAUSE IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE.

 

 

 

 

MY COMMENT:  

 

 

 IT IS AN  ENORMOUS PROBLEMATIC AROUND THE WORLD. IT MEANS THAT NOT ONLY IT IS HAPPENING IN AFRICA,  PROBABLY CLOSE YOU ARE A POOR FAMILY AND YOU DO NOT KNOW IT. A  PERSON WHO HAS SOMETHING TO EAT, TO DRESS, A HOUSE AND AN AMAZING FAMILY IS COMPLETLY RICH DOES NOT MATTER IF HAVE ENOUGH MANEY OR NOT.

EACH GOVERMENT COUNTRY HAVE TO ERADICATE THE EXTREME POVERTY AND HUNGER AND ALSO REDUCE THE PROPORTION OF PEOPLE LIVING ON LESS THAN A DOLLAR A DAY.

 

 

 

WHAT CAN YOU DO HELP?
