The gap between the rich and the poor is becoming wider; the rich are becoming richer, and the poor are getting even poorer. What problems can the situation cause? What can be done to reduce this gap?

The divide between rich and poor

nations

is an issue that does not seem to be going away and

this

gap is getting more and more expansive.

This

is a problem that we must overcome in order to create a better future.

First

and foremost, the lack of

education

is a prominent reason. Poor families cannot afford for their children to go to school as they have to pay for tuition fees, learning tools and many other fees. Without any

education

, these children would not find a better job and they would keep being poor.

Besides

, overpopulation is

also

one of the reasons for inequality between rich and poor

nations

. Natural sources are declining because of overpopulation.

For instance

, in the

last

two ,decades the population in India has just doubled and due to

this

, the government is unable to fulfil the fundamental needs of people and resulting in poverty. The

last

cause is the development of technology. In a world where technology has become a crucial factor of economic growth, technological advances have had a significant impact on society. It is very difficult to lower the gap between wealthy and unwealthy

countries

, but it is not impossible.

Firstly

, it is important for authorities to pay attention to personal development,

such

as

education

and technology, which are the keys to boosting them in the future.

Moreover

, the government can even provide

education

for free for the ones who cannot afford it.

Furthermore

, developed

nations

should come forward together to provide essential aids to poor

nations

by helping them financially and developing

countries

should give the necessary information about population control. Because of that, the difference between rich and poor

countries

will end. In conclusion, one of the main causes of the difference between rich and poor

countries

is illiteracy and solving

this

problem requires much effort from governments and international bodies. Together we could minimize the gap and circumstances better for poor

countries

.
