3. Africa: Education, Health Expenditure and international cooperation to development. Euro-American Association Report

International cooperation to development needs more policies addressed to improve education in the low income countries of Africa, because education has very important positive effects on the increase of real income per head and on the increase of health expenditure per inhabitant. 

Entry 3 by  Maria-Carmen Guisan, Professor of Econometrics, Spain

The MDGs (Millennium Development Goals of the United Nations) unfortunately did not imply, for the moment, enough support to foster education, although some positive measures have been implemented.

Health Expenditure, Poverty and Economic Development in Africa, 2000-2005

This interesting article has got only 100 readers since the end of 2007 until the end of 2009, in spite that it is free on line, available at our Open Access journal IJAEQS. It is REALLY SAD to notice that very few people reads this kind of interesting solutions for Africa.!!!
The main conclusions of this study point to the priority of international cooperation for education in Africa in order to improve real income per capita, erradicate poverty and increase health expenditure per inhabitant and welfare.

Friendly Welcome Message from Maria-Carmen Guisan Administrator of the Blog:

"Welcome to the Blog of the Euro-American Association of Economid Development Studies (EAAEDS): The Association is committed to reach real impact of socio-economic research related with World development, particular when it is related with education, industrial development, quality of government, poverty eradication or alliviation, women equality of opportunities and quality of life. We are aware that research in Economic Development should not only be addressed to publication in reputed academic journals, read only by a few qualified experts or by advanced students, but also to reach a wider readership of readers interested in economic policies for development. We are also aware that communication media usually pay little attention to the main findings of economics research while many of these media pay too much attention to secondary or even futile questions, For that reasons we include in this Blog references to economic development priorities that arise from the research studies published in the journals of our Associations and other related studies. The entries of this Blogs are addressed to readers interested in peace and international cooperation to development ".
