Inequitable distribution of construction expertise

Inequitable distribution to all people of the practical application of construction expertise in the sectors of building trades, civil engineering and architectural design has resulted from parochialism on the part of those having construction skills, and from a lack of determination on the part of most of the world to respond to local construction needs. Illiteracy, ignorance, poverty and a lack of powerful support further weaken the position of those who wish an equitable share in present-day construction expertise.
