Development is process through which economic and social transformation occurs as a result of cultural and environmental factors and their interaction

 

Development is a process, which involves economic and social transformation as a result of cultural and environmental factors and their interactions. Development may be measured using the country’s GDP or per capita income whereby countries with high GDP and per capita income are considered as developed and vice versa. Underdeveloped countries suffer poverty and unemployment worsened by the unequal income distribution. For a country to achieve, development equality must be its top priority as by removing the social and cultural inhibitors. Social classes defined by way of dressing, language, accent, or customs must be forgotten for a country to achieve development an equal distribution of incomes. Developed countries have adequate education levels, political and economic independence, and freedom of speech.

Some of the indicators of development are health, education, and standards of living. Health is a good measure of development in any country in which the availability of quality health care for all determines whether the country is developed or not. Developed countries have good health facilities for offering health services to all its citizens. Health facilities include well-equipped hospitals, health centres, and maternity facilities for expectant mothers. In developed countries, all citizens can access high-quality health services and acquire good nutrition to live a healthy life. In underdeveloped and developing countries, citizens have a challenge in accessing quality health care and good nutrition. There is a big gap between the rich and the poor in terms of the health facilities they attend. In some cases, the poor go for the traditional medicine while the rich attend goo hospitals. The health care facilities are ill-equipped health facilities especially in rural areas.

Education is another indicator of development measured by the number of citizens acquiring both the basic and advanced education in a country. Equitable education for all is a measure of development while the disparity in education portrays underdevelopment. In developed countries, quality education is a key priority for the government that receives a high funding. For Instance, in Africa some pupils learn under trees and lack qualified teachers other basic commodities

The other important indicator of development is the standard of living which is determined by the level of wealth, accessibility to material goods and other necessities and the level of comfort. Some of the factors that determine the standards of living are the availability of employment, poverty levels, class disparity, housing facilities, GDP, inflation rate, life expectancy, health care, availability of education, infrastructural development among others. Developed countries have a high standard of living while underdeveloped and developed countries have low standards of living. In underdeveloped countries, many people cannot afford the basic communities such as food, health, education, and good housing.

The other challenges are the stringent economic policies or measures imposed by the money learners to the developing countries, which deny them a chance to enjoy the benefits of free markets. As a result, many inferior goods from developed countries flood their market resulting to dumping. The policies also make the countries plunge deep into the debt crises instead of raising them to a better status.
