Development is where there is progress in numerous areas such as economic, political and social progress. There are four factors that can contribute to development which is growth and structural change, demographic transitions, improvements in education and health and lastly rural to urban migration. With growth structural change in order for a country to develop successfully they have to have all three sectors present such as the primary, secondary and tertiary sector. In South Africa we have ac primary sector that deals with mining and agriculture. In the secondary sector we have manufacturing of products such as clothes and wineries. In the tertiary sector we have services such as tourism which brings in a substantial amount of money into the economy constituting development. With demographic transitions the health systems of South Africa play a role in living a healthy life and having good access to health care and sanitizers during COVID-19, decreasing the death rate and birth rate. The education also influences this because people will know how to prevent diseases and keep healthy. Improvements in education and health care more people have access to tertiary education making it easier to find a job and it increases economic growth. More hospitals and schools are being built by the government. In South Africa those who cannot afford tertiary education can get NSFAS. Lastly with rural to urban migration in South Africa many are moving to the cities in search of jobs and this is helping boost the economy since cities are the hubs for development in countries. Many people from poor settlements come to the cities in search of better jobs. There is more work force available even if it is just to clean or to mine. Many men go into the mining sector to find a better job and send money back home.
