people are starving that's a fact, so you fed them and educate them, it's not talking about welfare. Starving people can't learn properly.
It is often difficult to educate. People have tried in Africa, for instance. Unfortunately deep seated beliefs in witchcraft and superstition are hard to combat. If the water pump breaks? Evil spirit, gotta placate before we try to fix. Child gets ill? Better find out who cast the evil eye and placate them before the white man’s medicine will work.
Not saying it’s impossible to educate, but I doing it the context of changing an entire culture has proven to be exceedingly difficult.
Why change the culture? AFAIK old African kingdoms were prosperous. Remember what happened to India and the plan of Great Britain to destroy Indian culture.
Why change the culture? Read my comment above again and see how aspects of that culture need to change. I’m not saying the entire culture has to change.
I’ll give you another example: I remember seeing a documentary about how some Australian aborigines came over to Africa to teach some of them to farm in the dessert. After one crop they ate all the seed and could not continue to farm. “Live in the moment” without planning for the future at all is a huge problem in many areas of Africa. That is a cultural problem.
