Question:

What should we do first now!?

What should we do first!?
Who thinks that the problems in third world countries should be prioritised, and a campaign be organised to put the list to the main charities.
What I mean should we do Vaccines first? Or support a clean water program? Again, should we help with home building? Maybe a contraception program? I am talking about people who are not in danger of war or in the middle of famine.
Could you please add to this list? Would you make a list that we could put up and take a serious look at.

The first thing is water.
You should help provide a permanent water source first off.

Look at Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Go down the list. Meet the physical needs first. Then if there are still resources you can move up the list. But you'll probably decide to move to another area and meet the physiological needs there next. Once people's physiological needs are met, they can meet the rest of their own needs.
