Education is the best way to get rid of poverty
There are two ways to get rid of poverty, one is material poverty alleviation, and the other is spiritual poverty alleviation.

In the past, the focus of poverty alleviation was regional, such as contiguous destitute areas, poor counties or poor villages, and the national poverty alleviation resources were generally not available to households.

The "five batches" emphasized by precision poverty alleviation (that is, developing production to get rid of poverty, ex situ relocation to get rid of poverty, ecological compensation to get rid of poverty, developing education to get rid of poverty, and social security) are more targeted at individuals.

Development is the last word, so developing production is undoubtedly the most important and the effect is remarkable.

However, the most far-reaching influence is education to help the poor.

A study by the World Bank shows that based on the poverty line of the World Bank, if the labor force in the family has been educated for less than six years, the incidence of poverty is greater than16%; If the number of years of education is increased by three years, the incidence of poverty will drop to 7%.

If the number of years of education is 9 to 12, the poverty rate will drop to 2.5%; If you have received more than 12 years of education, there is almost no poverty.

It can be seen that education plays a fundamental role in poverty alleviation, which is the key to uprooting the "poor roots" and stabilizing poverty alleviation, and is also an important way to block the intergenerational transmission of poverty.

Therefore, in terms of poverty alleviation through education, the state has a very rigid requirement, which is simply to control the dropout rate and ensure the enrollment rate. Now the enrollment rate of many poor counties has reached 100%, which was unimaginable in the past. During the investigation, we found that there are some poverty-stricken areas in southern Shaanxi, and the junior high school enrollment rate has reached an astonishing 100%.
