I hope that the situation improves in Sudan, but it would be difficult for anyone to deliver prosperity when an already poverty-stricken population is growing at these rates:<p>1950: 5.7m<p>2000: 28m<p>2019: 44m<p>2050: 80m<p>2100: 127m<p>If the population cannot prosper today, how will the country handle 3x as many people and growing, with the added problem of climate change?<p>The fertility rate (currently 4.53) is falling too slowly. The #1 priority of the country should be to provide contraception, education and abortion to women nationwide - with 100% of foreign aid directed towards this cause.
