Economic development throughout the world is another contributing factor in preventing poverty. All countries need to keep their people in the labor force so they can earn money to afford the basic need of life. Without having the basic needs malnutrition, poor health, crime, drug use, mental illness, and starvation can occur. Countries need to emphasize to their citizens the importance of having work skills, which will keep then, employed and living above the poverty level. Everyone, poor or rich, needs a home, clothing, and food. There are people though that can not work due to illness, disability, or they are just too old. These people can not earn money to afford the basic needs of survival. These groups of people rely on volunteer programs, churches, government programs, and worldwide community support.

More fortunate people must also be willing to help their fellow citizens in need. Volunteer programs should be overflowing with people who want to help. For example, Habitat for Humanity is one organization who builds houses for the needy. If everyone dedicated some of their extra time and money in organizations that help poor people, poverty would begin to see a decrease. There are many other organizations that help poor people, and if everyone pitches in, one world problem may be diminished in the future.

Poverty is an issue which the world faces everyday. It is a constant struggle that cannot be ignored anymore. As you can see defeating poverty would take great efforts and contributions from all. We must better educate the youth and have education available for everyone all over the world. We also need to ensure that everyone has a job and that they are properly skilled for the job. People need to realize that poverty affects everyone, not only the poor and uneducated. Our world would be a much better place if everyone pitched in to help defeat a major problem around the world, poverty.
