RE Homework, I'm Pretty Proud Of It HaHaR.E - Aii: Explain why there is a need for world development.
World development is an effort to improve the world's economic and social position of the world.
Many countries in the world are poor for a number of reasons. Some of these reasons are war, natural disasters and the issue of having clean water. The way that natural disasters affect poor countries is because it is more devastating for the countries which are poor because they wont have the money to restore the damage and if they borrow the money from other countries which are rich they will probably be only be able to pay of the interest of the money they owe, resulting in them going into even more debt. The way that war affects a countries economic position is because after a war the land that the country originally owned has been taken over by another country which is richer so then they will have to buy back the plot of land which they wont be able to afford. And the way that the issue of clean water affects poorer countries is because there is no clean water resulting in diseases and illnesses which will push the need and cost for medical services up; in the world there are about 1.4 billion people who don't have access to clean water.
Some of the reasons why world needs world development is because of the United Nations Declaration, this is the human rights act. Within this document it states "everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services". This is stating that it is a basic human right to have a suitable standard of living.
Another reason is the issue of the poorer countries getting ripped off by the richer countries with the products that they make. A reason why the workers in the poorer countries should get a fair amount of money for their good is because this will lift their standard of living and will be a step closer to ending world poverty.
One more reason why there is a need for world development is that the planet can be seen as a "global village" meaning that we are all one big community and if one country is effected by poverty it will have a knock on effect with the countries which are richer, also the countries that are poor should be able to get help from the more richer countries seen as that's what a community does.
