Question

Unstable governments:
• Struggle to deliver __________
• Lose aid due to __________ or conflict
• Have higher __________ and death rates

Answer 1

Unstable governments:
- Struggle to deliver public services (healthcare, education, infrastructure)
- Lose aid due to corruption or conflict
- Have higher poverty and death rates

Brief why:
- Instability undermines institutions and capacity, so basic services aren’t reliably provided.
- Donors withdraw or condition aid when corruption or insecurity makes assistance ineffective or risky.
- Disrupted economies, weakened health systems, and violence raise poverty and mortality.
