Details: Currently, particularly in America, the majority of medical research goes into diseases affecting developed nations because that is where the money is. Governments must provide a financial incentive for private firms to tackle the problems and diseases affecting the third world. This will mean a re-direction of funding but ultimately it will lead to the most productive results as the worst affected areas and diseases will be targeted.
Details: Unlike the other issues this is one probably mainly facing developed nations. This has to be tackled with a double approach. There must be more severe penalties and taxes for those firms that pollute. However, this on its own will not solve the problem. In combination with this, those environmentally friendly firms must be financially rewarded. This will lead to both an incentive to be clean and a disincentive to pollute.
Details: In the past some third world countries had to borrow heavily from the more developed nations. Now the repayments are crippling them, as any money they make must go back into servicing the debt. Removing the debts they owe will allow money to be re-directed into productive ventures and will ultimately lead to benefiting all, as these third world countries will become better trade partners in the future.
Details: A lot of developed naitons subsidise local producers and tax imports from the third world. This puts the already struggling third world nations at a disadvantage. If trade was more open and these developiong nations could compete more fairly in a freer world market then everyone would benefit. Developed nations will havem ore competition for commodities and perhaps receive cheaper goods while third world countries will increase exports providing them with more money.
