Good morning everybody. My lecture today is about wealth

inequality between poor and rich countries.
There is a significant gap between rich and poor countries
because of many reasons such as: social, economic and political
inequality in addition to the unequal distribution of wealth.
Today there is an urgent need for managing the world’s
resources because this inequality in sharing wealth led to
conflicts over the planet’s natural resources, and resulted in an
environmental problems that threatens our life on Earth. For
instance, in many poor countries, people face hunger, a lack of
clear water, dangerous health conditions, and a lack of housing.
Citizens in such regions have no opportunity to live a healthy
and happy life, they have poor health and a low life expectancy.
Quality of life in such countries is also extremely low.
Rich countries can help poor ones by taking more
responsibility in improving health, education and trade in poor
countries.
To conclude, the economic gap between countries has numerous
negative effects on all the people on our planet. Developed
countries should support poor nations because it will positively
affect the wellbeing of their people and will boost the world’s
economy.
