POVERTY IN AFRICA

POVERTY IN AFRICA

Africa is currently the poorest continent on Earth, we can understand it better by knowing that 28 countries of the continent are among the poorest on the planet. But also among the whole set of countries in Africa there are also three very rich countries in terms of economy (South Africa, Nigeria and Egypt).

Nowadays Africa is known as a poor continent, since both in the news and in the school, only the bad part of the continent is taught (wars, poverty, desert areas, the need for help, lack of education as well as food etc..), and it is not taught what the continent is really changing, as some of the countries are making great strides in the development of the country as on the continent, to try to fix the country making Africa get a better reputation. They are improving governments, making children better educated and not having to stop studying at such an early age to help their parents in the field or whatever.

Apart from the countries themselves, the other continents have created large organizations of people, better known as ONG, to help in Africa in every way: lack of medicines, education, food collection, etc. Whether with teachers, doctors, volunteers, among others. With their help and the money raised by the calls for help from the continent itself, it is growing and it may be as developed in the future as others. And the best thing about this is that you can also help the continent, donating or going through some experiences helping the little kids by going yourself to help them.
