Eradicate Poverty

Over the last years, countries face challenges in making the right choices in making policies to achieve development putting together scarce resources. The problems basically, are as a result of the inability of leaders prudently managing resources. This has caused less developments and in some extreme cases, extreme poverty in some countries.

A example is the Millennium Development Goals, which set the target of halving global extreme poverty by 2015. ( Report on World Social Situations UN 2009)

The research paper will seek to explore and investigate the following:

• examine the causes of poverty in the sub region and the extent to which poverty is affecting growth and development in Ghana

• find out and highlight the mechanisms through which poverty will be eradicated

• identify and examine which of the mechanisms will work to eradicate poverty and will be well understood and accepted by the people

This will essentially give us informed and the most accurate findings as well as act as a guide to make

The purpose of this is to clearly define what people regard as basic needs and why they do not own them provided that is depicted in the survey results. The random sampling method will be used to execute this questionnaire to get the general notion about this problem and how individuals think this problem can be eradicated. In the end, a total of 100 questionnaires will be administered and the results interpreted as such. One –on-one interviews will also be done at some point of administering the questionnaires.

Based on the responses I get I will make a regression analysis with time, poverty and economic growth using the equation I= α+ βE +e where α is what one has with or without poverty, β is the loss in development as a result of living in poverty an additional year and e is other factors that influence poverty that are not captured in the
