Alongside this truth, life expectancy, literacy and the prevalence of infectious diseases such as malaria are not showing any significant positive changes.
Although African macroeconomic conditions have risen (in terms of growth escalation, lessen inflation, and the fall of HIV prevalence), Moyo mentioned that Africa is the poorest region in the world with an average per capita income of $1 as well as the highest proportion of poor people in the world. Moyo claims the idea that aid can alleviate poverty is a myth rather than righteousness. As a now Global Economist and Strategist at Goldman Sachs, Moyo continuously tries to break the notion that “the rich should help the poor, and the form of this help should be aid”. Since Africa’s problems have been discussed by many white men, Dead Aid delineates African matters from an African woman’s point of view. “Aid has been, and continues to be, an unmitigated political, economic, and humanitarian disaster for most parts of the developing world.” This startling statement comes out from Dambisa Moyo, an African woman who criticizes the Western aid programs in Africa.
