Reducing inequalities is a question of will: DEABATE in groups.

Here you have some examples:

If the country had invested more money in education, a big number of inhabitants would have now further studies (ex. 3rd conditional)
If poor families had an education of quality, their children would have a better life (ex. 2nd conditional)
If more women had a decent job, they would have the chance to help other women (ex. 2nd conditional)

In order to do a great debate, it is essential to use the conditionals correctly:

Conditionals: zero, first and second. Do not forget to do the grammar tests included.
Third Conditional Do not forget to do the following activities..
