What is AID?
Aid means assistance and it takes different
forms. Sometimes it is monetary assistance
which means that money is paid to the
government or an organisation working in the
other country.
Sometimes it is expertise, workers, equipment
or machinery.
Aid is the transfer of goods and
services from developed to developing
nations.

Poverty means lacking basic living
standards and conditions.
Not being able to progress and
have the same opportunities as
other people.
Poverty means a relatively short
life, poor health and poor access to
health care.
It can also mean a low income and
poor education level (literacy
skills)
Poverty often involves large
families and often war and conflict.
THE STATE OF THE WORLD IN 2016
Today across the world, 1.3 billion people out of 7.2 billion live on
less than $1 a day.
3 billion live on under $2 a day
1.3 billion have no access to clean drinking water
2.5 billion have no access to SANITATION.
2 billion have no access to electricity
Every day, around 25,000 children die from poverty related issues
150 million children without the chance to go to school.
1 billion people are illiterate.
What is the HDI?
The Human Development Index recognises
that a country’s economy alone is not enough
to measure its wellbeing – we have to look at
its people and their capabilities.
It looks at health, knowledge and standard of
living,
The HDI is a summary of average
achievement in key dimensions of
human development – a long and
happy life, being knowledgeable and
having a decent standard of living.

+ Types of AID
• Aid can be given or received in a variety of forms depending on the country
who is giving or receiving the aid, and whether it is a long term or short term
solution.
TERM DEFINITION
Bilateral Monetary or other assistance given from one country to another. E.g.
Australia giving aid to East Timor
Multi-lateral Provided by a number of countries, often through an international
organisation, or through a number of countries agreeing to help out.
E.g. Australia, NZ, USA and China giving aid to Japan after the
tsunami.
Tied Aid Aid provided where a country ensures that the money is spent on what
they are giving the aid for. Sometimes it is given with an agreement
that the receiving country will now trade goods and services with
them.
Untied Aid Assistance given, free of conditions (very rare in the 21st century due
to corruption and poor governance).
+ What other
types of aid
are there?
Food aid
Assistance in the food of fruit, vegetables, drinking water,
seeds, etc.
Technical Aid
Assistance thorough the provision of experts. This could
include teachers, doctors, builders etc.
Monetary Aid Assistance in the form of funds
Emergency Aid

earthquake, brushfire, Tsunami or flood
