Darwin’s Nightmare
Lake Victoria
Before 1960’s, there were many kind of fish in this lake.
However, someone took Nile Perch into this lake.
Nile Perch is meat eating.
Nile Perch eat the other fish.
Therefore, there is no fish but
Nile Perch.
➡However
Economy flourished because employment was created by nile
perch.
Actually, in Muwanza, there are 1000 employees in factory
around Lake Victoria.
A lot of fishermen are working at Lake Victoria.
↓
There is no job without nile perch.
Nile perch led to benefit!!

HIV/AIDS
There are many poor people around the lake and they die of dangerous diseases,
especially HIV/AIDS.
There are 450000~500000 people die in a half year.
There are women who lost her husbands because of HIV/AIDS.
➡They become whores to earn money
Children around Lake Victoria
• Many children live in street around Lake Victoria.
• Both their parents are working. Father is fishermen, mother is whore.
They die of HIV/AIDS.
➡Street children live in bad environment,
they smoke and drug.
Go to Africa from EU
For example…
⤵
The Russian airplane come from West Africa or Europe with baggage(weapons)
↓ go to
Conflict zone (ex. Angola, Congo) to give weapons
↓
Lake Victoria to load nile perch on the plane
↓
Europe to deliver nile perch
↩
conclusion
Nile Perch influence on many things.
➡(HIV/AIDS, arms smuggling, whores)
The number of people who benefit from Nile Perch are
little.
Education Opens Doors
Primary education
• 89 % of world’s school-age children were enrolled
⇓
11 % of those were not
↪75 % were in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa
• Reasons
・inaccessible location
・teacher and parents are indifferent
・related cost
・religious problem(?)
Enrollment and Completion rates
• Important measures of education
successful education
• Education quality & learning achievement
Sustainable development & poverty alleviation
Secondary and tertiary enrollment
only Europe and Central Asia
only 50%
MDGs
• “ensure that by 2015, children everywhere, boys and
girls alike will be able to complete a full course of
primary schooling."
The MDGs 2000-2015
~Poverty, development and the future~
What is MDGs?
• 190 world leaders committed the support of their governments at the very start
of the new Millennium.
• This is formally adopted at the General Assembly of the United Nations held in
New York on 18 September 2000, which was referred to as the UN Millennium
Summit.
• The MDGs consist of eight overarching goals, each to be achieved by 2015.
8 overarching goals 18 targets 48 details
• Eradicate extreme hunger and poverty
• Achieve universal primary education
• Promote gender equality and empower women
• Reduce child mortality
• Improve maternal health
• Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases
• Ensure environment sustainability
• Develop a global partnership for development
⇒together they can be regarded as making up a comprehensive agenda for global
development in the 21 century
• The MDGs proper relate to the period 2000-2015.
• 2007-2008 represents the mid-point toward this.
⇒what has been achieved so far, and on the trends of then, which of the goals are
likely to be achieved by 2015??
The unequivocal answer of MDGs
• There has been good progress with some of the goals in some parts of the world,
however, overall progress is best described as “patchy”.
→this is well exemplified if we look at one of the major targets relating to the `eradication`
of poverty and hunger.
If this rate remains on track, this global poverty indicator will fall to
12.5 percent in 2015, less than half the level recorded in 1990.
But it is clear that progress has been uneven when viewed by
major continental division.
The MDGs targets can be met in the various world regions by 2015.
16 targets ×10 regions
=160
16 cases has already been met
40 is expected to be met by 2015
34 is no progress
66 isn`t expected to be met
All 16 constituent boxes
showing either no progress
or that the target is not
expected to be met.
⇒there clearly remains a
great deal to be done
• While progress is being made in certain regions, and in particular respects, there
remains an enormous amount to do if gross inequalities are to be meaningfully
reduced.
• Development and anti-development are extremely important concepts, for they
exist in a global context where differences in wealth, opportunity and choice
appear to be widening at their extremes rather than narrowing.
⇒some poorer nations are showing enhanced incomes in relation to the rich
nations of the West, however, the majority are continuing to fall yet further behind.
Bill Clinton (in The Richard Dimbleby Lecture, 2001)
• `we in the wealth countries have to spread the benefits of the twenty-first
century world and reduce the risks, so we can make more partners and fewer
terrorists in the future`
• `we have built a world where we tore down barriers, collapsed distances and
spread information. And the UK and America have benefited richly`
But he regards as the burdens of the twenty-first century
• Over half the world are excluded from the benefits of the new global economy.
• `what kind of economy leaves half the people behind?`
Investment for growth
• Investment means the increased part of capital in
the fixed period of time
• On average, 22 percent of the world’s output is
invested for production purposes.
• Physical investment
buildings
machinery and equipment
additions to inventories
improvements of property
Investment domestic savings
external savings
• External savings is limited and generally more unstable than
domestic savings
• To sustain economic growth, government policies must
create a climate that encourage productive investment
• Government policies encourage firms and entrepreneurs to
invest productively, create jobs, and contribute to growth
and poverty reduction
East Asia and
Pacific region has
had highest
investment rates,
40 percent
Sub-Saharan Africa
had the lowest
investment rates,
20 percent
government
・Government policies play a key role and influence
the security of property rights
the effectiveness of regulation
the impact of taxation
the quality and accessibility of infrastructure
the functioning of financial and labor markets
・Poor governance increases transaction costs, encourages
unproductive activities, and reduces transparency
Misallocation of resources and discourages new investment
• China and some of the other ‘tigers’ in the East Asia and the
Pacific region have obtained spectacular growth rates
• However, high levels of investment do not guarantee high
growth rate.
• Investment produces growth but
investment also disturbs growth
Demographic change may alter the
trajectory of global development
What is “demographic dividend”?
What is “demographic dividend” ?
• It is called “人口ボーナス” in japan.
• To raise economic growth by increasing production capacity
and purchasing power which is caused from rising working-
age population.
• Recent years, we can see declining fertility
rates with low birthrates and longevity.
Demographic dividend
First demographic dividend
• Growing labor force supports
fewer children.
• Transitory benefits.
Second demographic dividend
• Savings built up and greater
investment in human and
physical capital.
• Lasting benefits in the form of
greater productivity and
sustainable development.
⇒These are not automatic, but represent an opportunity of greater
prosperity and improved living standards.

Diversity and commonality
• another classification that distinguishes countries in their
ability
To capture
To harness the demographic dividend.
• Diversity in the direction and pace of demographic change
across and even within countries.
• Commonality across countries in their ability to capture it.
⇒ the world can be divided into four types of countries.
Four types
Pre-dividend countries
• Low income
• Fertility rates(4 births per woman)
• Rapid population growth
but, their dependency rates are
expected to decline as children
reach working-age.
They need to lay the foundations for
realizing the first demographic
dividend.
Early-dividend countries
• Lower-middle income
• Fertility rates have fallen
• Working-age population is rising
They need to focus on capturing the
first demographic dividend and
laying the foundation for realizing
the second one.
Four types
Late-dividend countries
• Upper-middle income
• Fertility rates (2,1 births per
woman)
• Working-age population is shrinking
• Very rapid aging
Reaping the second demographic
dividend is crucial.
Post-dividend countries
• High-income
• The highest shares of elderly
• They are experienced the bonus
from first demographic dividend.
They can still reap the second one
from savings and investments.

Editor's Notes

  • #3 Hello, everyone. Lets start our presentation.
  • #4 This is Lake Victoria. The area around lake victoria like ムワンザ、ムソマ is important in this movie. People living there are working at Lake victoria as fishermen.
  • #5 Im going to explain about Lake Victoria.
  • #7 Im talking about the relationship of problems around Lake Victoria. The salary of fisherman is very low so they are poverty. And because of poverty, their wife become whore to earn money. As a result HIV/AIDS spread throughout around Lake Victoria. That is why vicious circle happen.
  • #8 From four hundred and fifty thousand people to five hundred thousand people die in a half year.
  • #10 As this movie shows, empty airplane take off for Africa from Europe.
  • #12 That’s all
  • #27 In economics, an investment means the increased part of capital in the fixed period of time. Investment replenishes assets used up in production and increases the total capital stock. On average, 22 percent of the world’s output is invested for production purposes. Physical investment takes many forms, for example, buildings, machinery and equipment, and additions to inventories… and so on.
  • #28 Investment is financed out of domestic savings or external savings, however, external one is limited and generally more unstable than domestic one. Countries that have high savings and investment rates are likely to have high rates of economic growth. Growth is also affected by improved efficiency as a result of technological advances and investments in people, through better education and health care. To sustain economic growth, government policies must create a climate that encourage productive investment. A good investment climate is one in which government policies encourage firms and entrepreneurs to invest productively, create jobs, and contribute to growth and poverty reduction.
  • #29  In most recent years, the East Asia and the Pacific region has had the highest investment rate, averaging 40 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). Even Sub-Saharan Africa exceeded the rate of 18 percent in high-income economies. Total investment in developing regions in 2010 was $6.4 trillion, about 80 percent of the level of investment in high-income economies.
  • #30 Government policies play a key role in shaping the investment climate. They influence the security of property rights, the effectiveness of regulation, the impact of taxation, the quality and accessibility of infrastructure, and the functioning of financial and labor markets. The quality of the investment climate also contributes strongly to increased productivity and employment creation, both necessary for poverty reduction. Poor governance increases transaction costs, encourages unproductive activities such as lobbying, and reduces transparency. This leads to misallocation of resources and discourages new investment.
  • #31  Countries in Sub-Saharan Africa made rapid changes to their economies’ regulatory environment. Europe and Central Asia was the most active reformer. : 88 percent of countries in the region made at least one positive reform to make doing business easier. Although China and some of the other ‘tigers’ in the East Asia and the Pacific region have obtained spectacular growth rates, high levels of investment do not guarantee high growth rate. Investment produces growth but investment also disturbs growth.
  • #32 In this graph, it is showed that the relationship between investment rates of the gross capital formation and annual average GDP growth rate. Latin America and Caribbean had 20 percent of investment rates and produced growth of only 3.1 percent. South Asia had 28 percent of investment ratio and resulted in annual growth of 6.5 percent. It is proportional among almost all the areas. But Sub-Saharan Africa is an interesting exception: an investment ratio of 19 percent led to an annual growth rate of 4.3 percent. In Sub-Saharan Africa, it is invested more efficient and led to growth than any other areas. Sustainable economic growth is impossible without investment. But high rates of investment alone do not ensure rapid economic growth.
