    While the Global North and South are often seen as dependent on each other, the document argues that this is an elitist view that fails to recognize that the Global South has its own standards of innovation and development due to the poverty it experiences. Developing countries do not need to rely on the Global North and are able to progress at their own pace using their own cultures and metrics of success.

    “Are the Global North and the Global South dependent on one another?

    "

    In many ways, people would say that the Global North and Global South are

    dependent with one another. However, it is high time that we throw away this elitist and

    white savior notion and realize that the Global South has its own metrics for innovation

    and advancement. This is seen in the caricature, where the two are not tied to one

    another and are drawn differently. Developing countries have their own standards due

    to the poverty they experience. They may reach the “developed” stage at a much slower

    rate, but they do not have to rely on the Global North. They are equipped to adapt at

    their own pace using their cultures.
