Creating precarious working places for otherwise desperate people helps a lot but on the other hand can't lift an economy out of poverty. As long as most countries in the so called "third world" get exploited by the West which via the IMF and World Bank does not even allow them to built an infrastructure ("barriers to free trade" like hospitals, schools, environmental protection, labor rights) they won't make it. The West should pay reparations for colonialism and slavery to the countries affected by them. This would ease the situation a little.
