Explain four contributory factors to poverty locally and globally

The four factors that contribute to local and global poverty can be:

1. Historical factors:

These are factors related to the development of a society, such as political authoritarianism, crimes, wars, corruption.

2. Diseases:

Diseases that contribute to local poverty are those related to mental health, addiction to illicit substances and alcoholism, epidemic diseases such as malaria.

3. Absence of educational policies:

Education is essential for the development and professional training for individuals to have better living and working conditions.

4. Absence of public policies:

When there is no investment in public policies for the entire society, there is an increase in social inequality, crime, informality and poverty.

Therefore, poverty must be fought with policies focused on the social and environmental development of a society, preserving human rights and offering equal conditions for human development.

Explanation:

Diseases:

There is a saying which states that health is wealth. When there are diseases the citizens would fall ill and be weak and will make them unproductive thereby causing poverty.
