In his article "The meaning of poverty" Neil Gilbert defines poverty as "the standard of living with little food, residence, and clothing" (85). According to FAO, between 2010 and 2012, one in 870 million or 8 billion people worldwide suffers from chronic malnutrition, while in Tanzania the population from 2008, 2008 to 2012 Nearly 70% of the people suffer from poverty. During this year, the proportion of chronic malnutrition rose from 32% to 39% ("state of food insecurity in the world" 32).
In many areas, Africa's economic development and poverty are regarded as the most corrupt country. The most corrupted two-thirds of the world's countries are in sub-Saharan Africa. Today, millions of Africans live below the poverty line due to corruption. If government and senior officials from the private and public sectors are not sincere, the African continent will not be able to find a corrupted solution. Africa is like this
Various global indexes including social progress index and human development index indicate that education in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia is low. Sub-Saharan African countries are often plagued by relatively unstable economies, conflicts and droughts, which further exacerbates the educational crisis and poverty level. The private sector is partly responsible for providing accessibility and high quality services for water, electricity, transportation, energy etc. In this regard, however, the government is also in charge of construction of schools, training of teachers, provision of nationwide courses, and testing to monitor progress.
Compared with sub-Saharan African countries, the poverty level of Mauritius is not very high, millions of people living in less than $ 1 a day are killed by disease and hunger. Mauritius certainly has poverty; poverty exists throughout the country. According to CSO publications on poverty analysis reports in 2001/02 and 2006/07, the extreme poverty of Mauritius is negligible and the proportion of the population living in less than 1.25 dollars (purchasing power parity) is It is one day a day. The dollar is estimated to be less than 1%. Compared to other Sub-Saharan African countries such as Zambia and Nigeria, the poverty rate of Mauritius is relatively low. According to "Millennium Development Goal 1 - Removal of Extreme Poverty and Hunger", the goal is to halve the proportion of the poor by 2015 and Mauritius achieved this goal.
The main reason for the global slowdown is the increasing concentration of extreme poverty in areas where poverty is decreasing. A typical example is sub-Saharan Africa, in addition to the most optimistic scenario, poverty will remain two digits by 2030, in addition to major policy changes. Declining poverty also reflects lower commodity prices, developing conflicts and other economic challenges in developing countries.
