Most people assume that trusted international leaders and nonprofit organizations would value life and want to raise the standard of living and lifespans of people in less developed cultures. This has apparently not been the case for many internationally recognized governmental and non-governmental agencies. Among the preponderance of international organizations, the focus is on reducing the population and maintaining the status quo, not on humanitarian aid or developing underdeveloped cultures. Although this is slowly changing through various charitable organizations, most official international agencies give only enough aid and support to barely sustain the under-privileged, but not enough to raise their standard of living, develop their infrastructure or change their long range outcome. It has repeatedly been demonstrated that raising the standard of living and health of impoverished peoples is the best way to both stabilize the population and protect the environment.

For those dealing with high infant and childhood mortality and struggling to feed their families, high birth rates in anticipation of those losses, and to provide farm labor for subsistence farming along with an inability and unwillingness to protect the environment are the natural consequences. Destitute people will do whatever is deemed necessary to survive, including harming the environment. You would, too. Thus, progressive policies that keep indigenous peoples in their poverty and squalor for "cultural preservation" or to "save the planet" have the opposite effect of their stated ends of preserving the environment and improving human life.
Many international organizations propagate drastic population control measures under the radar while publicly advocating and providing (some) aid to the poor and endorsing environmental concerns. This includes governmental and nongovernmental agencies such as UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), UNFPA (United Nations Fund for Population Activities), The World Bank, USAID (United States Agency for International Development), the Club of Rome and its many spin-offs, Worldwide Fund for Nature, formerly called World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Green Peace, Population Council, International Planned Parenthood Federation, etc. Many of these organizations swap and share members and leaders, and cooperate to help each other toward common population control goals.

The Population Control agenda is rooted in the Eugenics movement that considered brown and black people to be inferior to the white race. When that became unpopular, they hid this origin and emphasized the overpopulation myth and population control "for the good of the planet." Meanwhile they still maintaining an attitude that brown and black people are incapable of improvement and need to be taken care of and led. This is a pernicious lie! The present state of environmental and economic suppression and control is still a form of colonialism. There is hope for Africa and other underdeveloped countries to become economically independent, but priorities and attitudes must change.
The Club of Rome describes itself as "a group of world citizens, sharing a common concern for the future of humanity." Its members includes current and former heads of state, UN bureaucrats, high-level politicians and government officials, diplomats, scientists, economists and business leaders from around the globe. Ostensively a charitable organization, it really advocates for control of population in underdeveloped countries as its primary goal and attempts to influence governments through its high-level members. In 1972 it published a report entitled The Limits to Growth. In its own words, its mission is "to act as a global catalyst for change through the identification and analysis of the crucial problems facing humanity and the communication of such problems to the most important public and private decision makers as well as to the general public." As such, it has been one of the primary promoters of government and NGO policies limiting reproduction in poor countries by withholding aid and loans unless strict population control measures are in place.
"The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself." (emphasis added)
— The Club of Rome
Although, as a part of the population control agenda, people in developed countries have been encouraged into voluntary sterilization, birth control and abortions, especially among the low income populations [2], the main focus is on targeting the poorest and most vulnerable people in underdeveloped countries. Aid money to impoverished nations is often linked to a demand for population control quotas on mandatory (forced or coerced) sterilizations, implantation of IUDs and injected birth control chemicals for the poorest people. This is the ugly secret hidden behind the humanitarian image projected for donations. Their websites and other publications hide this agenda under euphemistic and colorful terms such as "family planning," "research" and "improving the lives of the poor."
In addition to enforced sterilization, abortion and birth control methods, other means of limiting both population and life span have been applied and are often tied to reception or denial of aid. See below for summary and more detail in Part 2 in next post; the list includes denial or failure to provide/ promote :
DDT for control of insect borne diseases. (80% of diseases are zoonotic.)
Power Plants except unreliable (aka green) wind and solar
Clean Water and Sanitation to reduce diseases
Transportation: roads and railroads for access to markets and clinics
Modern agriculture in favor of slash & burn subsistence ("sustainable") agriculture
Access to EU markets is denied if genetically modified or high yield crops are grown
Industry investment outlook is poor due to high absenteeism from disease (see DDT)
Medicine: poor facilities and supplies, except for sterilization and birth control
Education: failure to train in hygiene, child care, agriculture and small business
HIV/AIDS diagnosis without confirmation as excuse for not treating TB, Malaria, etc.
Cultural Preservation in toto is encouraged, rather than economic development
Political Unrest is allowed to persist that discourages involvement by charities
Anti-Colonial Propaganda to scare people from accepting assistance/expertise.
Of these, disease control and electrical power are the most important because they can facilitate many of the other items on the list, and kick-start the economy. A healthy workforce and power to run industry, business, medical facilities and transportation are key to economic development. Although many African countries need foreign aid and international loans now, the goal should be to help them raise their economy to the point where they are net contributors to the world economy or at least are self sufficient.

[2] The population control agenda has been so successful in developed countries that for many countries birth rates are below replacement levels of 2+ children per couple. This is becoming a problem for countries like Japan and Germany where employment quotas for even essential services are hard to fill and an aging population is dependent on the care of fewer offspring. This will remain a problem until birth rates rise again to above replacement rates.
