1 Where is the world’s wealth and poverty? Aims 1.What is the Brandt Line? 2.Where is the Brandt Line drawn? 3.How will the Brandt Line change? Keywords North South Divide Brandt Line Wealth Gross Domestic Product

2 ACTIVITY 1 Plot the data on the sheet as a scatter graph Annotate the graph with any patterns you see Draw a line to divide the rich and poor countries Add the labels ‘Rich countries’ above the line and ‘Poor countries’ below the line CountryGDP$ Australia31900 Bangladesh2100 China6800 France29900 Indonesia3600 Iraq3400 Italy29200 Mexico10000 Morocco4200 New Zealand25200 Russia17000 Spain25500 Turkey8200 UK30300 USA41800 Brazil8400 ACTIVITY 2 On a world map, shade these countries using the following key; light colour countries with GDP >15000; dark colour countries with GDP 15000; dark colour countries with GDP <14000. Draw a line to separate the rich countries from the Poor Countries (does not have to be straight)Draw a line to separate the rich countries from the Poor Countries (does not have to be straight) Label the line ‘the Brandt Line’Label the line ‘the Brandt Line’ What do you notice? – write a few notes on the mapWhat do you notice? – write a few notes on the map

3 North South Divide

4 Explain what the Brandt Line shows? Why is it drawn where it is? Explain how and why the line could change in future?

5 Why are there some countries with high GNP (red) South of the line?

6 What other statistics can we use? How do they show development? UK Italy Japan Brazil Indonesia Ethiopia Choose 6 statistics from page 136-143 And fill in the table How do you statistics show development?

7 STARTER Using the data in your tables Choose ONE statistic and explain how you think it shows development

8 RICH WORLD, POOR WORLD Key Question Why is there such a divide between rich and poor countries throughout the world?

9 Reasons for development gap ENVIRONMENTAL natural features e.g. soil HISTORICAL things which have happen in years before e.g. war SOCIO – ECONOMIC society, culture and money e.g religion

12 STARTER Put the countries into above and below the Brant line Which do you think are the richest and poorest countries?

13 Manhattan and Madagascar Key Question How are Manhattan and Madagascar different?

14 Starter Compare these figures Development Indicator MadagascarManhattan Life expectancy5779 Literacy60100 Birth Rate41 per 100014 per 1000 Waste150 x body weight4000 x bodyweight

15 Level 3 /4 – basic comparison e.g. More Manhattans are literate Level 4/5 - detailed comparison e.g. The number of Madagascans that can read and write is 60% which is a lot lower than 100% of the Manhattans Level 6 - comparison and explanation e.g. The number of Madagascans that can read and write is 60% which is a lot lower than 100% of the Manhattans. This is because all children go to school and get an education in the USA whereas children work on the farms in Madagascar and few are educated

16 Compare the development of Madagascar and Manhattan
