There are several large problems which pose as threats in
the third world. Although the education in the 3rd world is taking a
positive turn towards the better, the quality of education remains lower than
that of first world countries. One of the main threats to universal education
in the third world countries is the lack of funding. It must be noted that a
large percentage of the teachers in relatively poor countries are actually
volunteers and not full time paid teachers. Other threats to this education
would be the shortages of supply in areas such as stationary and notebooks
which are essential for students to use.

I wish more funds would be targetted towards building up the educational systems in these countries. I don't think that things would ever get better on their own!
