Introduction
The issue of sustainable development in rural and developing areas is a concerning
matter that occurs throughout globally. The proliferation of disasters such as the recent
Amazon fire, Ebola outbreaks, and poverty rates have worried the international
community regarding the quality of life for the future generations. Currently, sustainable
development circles around the concepts of an area’s economy, society, nature and the
wellbeing of individuals inhabiting the region. In this debate, delegates are required to
create solutions that are affordable, effecting and appropriate for rural and developing
countries or regions.

Background Information
Sustainable development has been apparent throughout all LEDCs. Recently, the
United Nations strived to make sustainable development a reality with the 17
Sustainable Development Goals. These goals are suited to address many imperative
global issues and are hoping to be achieved by 2030. Since the creation of the SDGs,
many countries partnered with the United Nations to tackle the matter in their own
nations.
Many rural and developing areas lack sustainable development mainly due to their
economic stuatus. It is difficult to achieve such goals when there is no financial aid to do
so. Additionally, the population of certain areas and country take a great effect on their
efficiency to accomplish any form of sustainable development. For example, countries
with high population densities are likely to have more people in poverty than countries
that have lower population densities. Additionally, due to the fact that these states have
more than one major epidemic, such attention towards one problem may be a larger
priority than others. However, there are programs within the United Nations to help such
LEDCs operate and initiate their own projects.
Sweden
Sweden is one of the most sustainable countries in the world. Through their efficient use
of renewable energy, carbon tax, and encouragement of sustainable living, Sweden
reduced its air pollution to 10.2 microorganisms per cubic meter; the world average is
20.1 microorganisms per cubic meter.
Brazil
With the recent Amazon forest fire, sustainability for its environment is the most
pressing matter. Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro presented a speech that appealed to
the agricultural and livestock producers who make up a fundamental part of his support.
In the last decade, forest fires have increased steadily, and so far in 2019, there have
been more than 70,000 fires. In August alone there were more than 30,000 fires.
