Lastly, the rise of public-private partnerships in African business and social investments is fostering substantial change. Other factors includes, change in family structure, particularly the doubling of the percentage of families headed by a single women. It can be attributed to a 3.7% point rise in poverty rates. This increase surpasses the entire elevation in the poverty rate. Which has occurred from 10.7% to 12.8% since 1980.
