Governments are, even in developing countries, always able to stimulate education. Perhaps not by
acquiring technological means, this they may not have the funds for, but promoting the idea of
education is always possible. This is however not done enough. It is my opinion though that the
reason for low school attendance in developing countries is not low government sponsorship, but
that it in fact is related to not having minimum wages, no stable work culture and no social
benefits. If for instance governments in developing countries would pay a subsidy to parents if
their children attend school, we would be starting to tackle the real problem. After all, children
that don't attend school do this because they are working and they have to work because the
family needs the money. Should this underlying need be addressed, then the resulting need is
eliminated, freeing time and creating the possibility for children to attend school.
The problem in this plan is of course that it is money-based. Money is something the governments of
developing countries don't have, have to lend from the developed countries at an interest
rate and as a result end up with even less money. Therefore, this plan, attractive as it may seem,
will never be put to the test.
