What role does education play in the context of development?

Geographic Location and Educational Inequality

Rural areas often have fewer schools and longer distances between schools and homes.
Urban schools typically have better infrastructure.
Rural schools may struggle to attract and retain qualified teachers.
Rural-urban educational inequality can cause internal migration.

Developed vs. Developing Countries

Developed countries generally have consistent and sufficient educational funding, leading to better quality and facilities.
Developed-developing country educational inequality can cause international migration (brain drain).

Education and Development

Education and development are strongly interconnected.
Education is both a driver and outcome of development.
Education leads to improvements in many areas: prenatal care, clean water, sanitation, and medical innovations.

Inequality in Healthcare

Pharmaceutical companies contribute to better health but can create health inequalities.
Inequality occurs due to high medication costs (consumption barrier).
This is compounded by differing availabilities (supply barriers) and regional pricing differences (consumption barrier).
Research priorities of pharmaceutical companies are sometimes focused on profitable markets, leading to a delayed/misdirected treatment approach.

Foreign Aid

Foreign aid is the transfer of capital, goods, or services from one country (donor) to another (recipient) to support development.
Bilateral aid is direct assistance between two countries.
Multilateral aid is channeled through international organizations.
