Economic:
-more schools (teachers and equipment) needed - demand for primary schools will increase from 3.3 million in 1991 to 7.2 million in 2021 -rapid population growth means increased demand for electricity -rapid pop growth lead to over population, which lead to over cultivation taking nutrients out of the soil, decreasing soil fertility -> yield decreased 12% in 5 years. -unemployment -> in 2005, population rose by 5%, where as the GDP only rose by 1.2% -increased pressure on healthcare - 6000 mothers giving birth a year and also HIV/AIDS spreads more due to the young-uneducated-having sex, as well as mother to child. Social: -school dropouts increase - for example 40% of mothers are still in their teens. this then means lack of education for the future. -teenage mothers having to give up lives to look after children Political: -government brought in free contraceptives |
