 * The right to education: find solution to guarantee and finance education in LEDCs'
 * Providing adequate financial resources to developing countries dealing with external debt
 * Encouraging macroeconomic policies conducive to environment and development
 * Eradicating poverty through industrial cooperation

- Very little progress has been made to achieve the universal primary education achievement by 2015, one of the millenium development goals. - MEDC's spend on average 5.4% of their GNP, whilst LEDC's only spend about 3% on average. - Over 120 million children between the ages of 5 - 14 have full time jobs, already. - Gender biasness is very evident in LEDC's, Men get more opportunities than women. It is believed that by being equal and giving women the same amount of opportunities as the men get, the fight against global poverty will be reduced drastically - Some countries in East Asia such as South Korea, Malaysia, China and Thailand have already given rural women the opportunity to go to school and receive proper education in which then they were able to hold factory jobs. This has proved to lower poverty in those regions.
