Introduction
This course project will focus mainly on England in regard to the United Nations, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The other country of preference will be Ireland or Australia which closely relates to England in being part of the United Kingdom. In addition, the paper will also shed out some light on how the country has been of influence towards the economy of the world in partnership with the above-mentioned organizations.
The World Bank. (2018)
In order to make the world a better a place for all, the best thing one could ever do is to get rid of and/or attempt to reduce the poverty in the world. The core reason for the World Bank and England to team up is to ensure the above goals are aligned and met. Issues like conflict resolution and preventions, health, education, and governance are sorted out. This will assist in enabling the welfare and immunization for the world’s poorest countries. Consequently, roads need improvement, there is also the provision of clean water just to mention a few.
England is a member of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (also known as the World Bank). In joining the membership in 1945, the International Monetary Fund and World Bank were founded. As a result, England has now become the main shareholder not to mention an influential partner as well in regard to global efforts aimed at reducing poverty.
The UN (2018)
In a vibrant advocacy for action in England is the United Nations (UN) in a movement of over 20,000 people from diverse background and settings. There is much devotion towards supporting the UN in policy making, the formation of opinions and the public sector. This has ensured a strong and credible partnership that has led to building a fairer, safer, and a more sustainable world.
The core mission driving forward the partnerships is to ensure great strength is driven by the supporters and members, and also to the whole network of university branches and the community. This forms a very critical support not just in England, but it goes beyond that. This has been achieved due to their commitment to explaining more on the works and achievements, linking of the organizations and people to the values and work pertaining the UN.
The IMF (2018)
Despite the economic growth in the world accelerating, the UK’s resolution to leave the European Union affected England. The pound was weakened by the high prices thus limiting people’s expenditure which resulted from business investments being put on hold. This is contrary to the desire of the country to being productive and balancing its finances.
Brexit – the decision made by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union- is all to blame. This lead to firms put less effort into investing in the given growth experience globally. On the good side though, more demand has been noted because of the growth the trading partners to the country have experienced. Weaker consumption has been offset as well as investment in the country. The consequences Brexit brought, however, may depend on the agreement that will be made with the EU in the end.
Conclusion
The growth of a country should look to benefit the poor by creating opportunities to getting better services and jobs in laying the foundation for the future generations. Countries should embrace partnerships with the private sectors, the civil society, governments and citizens which would assure great strides have been taken to reduce and possibly end poverty by 2030 which would lead to the beginning of a new era (It’s Possible to End Poverty, 2018).
