Answer 1

Answer:

Hi

For the first question, the answer is the World Bank, as it is designed to support the poverty reduction strategies of middle and low income countries. These countries formulate strategies around a series of reforms and investment projects that seek to improve people's living conditions. In parallel, the Bank will endeavor to adjust the assistance it provides with the countries' difficulties in harmonizing its support program with other agencies to increase the effectiveness of the assistance provided.

For the second question, the answer is AIDS, since a country does not have to be rich to succeed in prevention; In this sense the costs are negligible. The World Bank reported that studies in 9 developing countries and 7 industrialized countries suggest that preventing a case of AIDS saved an amount equivalent to about 2 times the gross national product per capita in pandemic costs.

The answer to the last question is d, since self-sufficiency implies an economically independent configuration of economic exchange, external aid. In the case of the central political entities, self-sufficiency is concretized when it avoids requesting loans from organizations such as the International Monetary Fund or the World Bank, among other financial institutions, and resisting implementing its policies.
