The significance of poverty alleviation through education

The more developed the economy, the higher the education level. Poverty alleviation begins with "supporting wisdom". The more attention is paid to education, the easier it is to get rid of poverty. Fu Xin, head of the Shanghai Youth League Education Research Group, deputy director of Shigatse Education Bureau and principal of Shanghai Experimental School in Shigatse, said, "The research group promotes the professional quality of teachers with systematic and standardized teaching and research, promotes the integration of teachers in Shanghai and Tibet with a flexible' one post and two posts' system, radiates excellent ideas and experiences to more schools, and promotes the connotative development of education in Shigatse."

The lack of education is "poverty deprived of ability", which is deeper than income poverty and will lead to "intergenerational transmission of poverty". The research of UNESCO shows that people with different education levels have different degrees of improvement in labor productivity: undergraduate 300%, junior high school 108%, primary school 43%, and the correlation coefficient between per capita education years and per capita GDP is 0.562. If we want to uproot the "poor roots", we must play a good game of education to help the poor, so that children in poor areas can receive a good education and master a skill.

In the past, when talking about educational assistance, people first thought of sending materials, donating school supplies and sending teachers to schools in poor areas. But these practices are not satisfactory in helping the poor. Now, precision education assistance is not limited to the classroom. Outside the classroom, it is necessary to establish a "hematopoietic" mechanism, such as the "one post and two posts" and the "double teaching and research team leader system" introduced by Shanghai's "group-based" education aid to Tibet, in which local teachers serve as team leaders and Tibetan aid teachers concurrently serve as team leaders, so that local teachers and Tibetan aid teachers can jointly take charge of teaching and research and realize mutual learning and integration through joint management.

A century-long plan, education-oriented; The country is rich and the people are strong, and education comes first. With the increasing investment in education by the central and local governments, the hardware conditions of education in some poor areas have been significantly improved, so it is particularly important to upgrade the "software". Through accurate assistance, poor areas can improve the quality of "stock" teachers, promote the cultivation of "incremental" talents of students, truly leave a team for the local area from "blood transfusion" to "hematopoiesis" and form a set of replicable and popularized experiences.

Poverty is not terrible, what is terrible is not making progress and being content with the status quo. Through education and wisdom, we can light up the road to poverty alleviation and let everyone in poor areas have the opportunity to realize their dreams. By providing good educational opportunities for children in poverty-stricken areas, children can not only feed back their families economically, but also change their ideas and concepts, helping the whole family to establish confidence in getting rid of poverty and firm determination to become rich.
