Should contraceptives be given to Africa

The more people who inhabit the Earth, the more they must compete for its resources. Although human population has grown steadily, developments in recent decades have been encouraging. Globally, women today give birth to an average of 2.5 children, half as many as in the early 1950s. Extreme growth threatens Africa's development and stability. Africa needs a new approach to slowing its population rise, to preserve peace and security, improve economic development and protect environmental sustainability.International donors shifted their focus to promoting general health care reform including fighting HIV/AIDS and other deadly diseases.Better education of young men is also vital. Young people of both genders who complete comprehensive sex education courses are more likely to delay having sex which reduces early and unwanted pregnancy.
