Stress is now a major problem in many countries around the world including developing countries. With globalization, stress is no more only the issue of developed societies or of the population living in urban areas.

The current world order and the unequal redistribution of resources of the communities to cater for the needs of the local populations is a great concern and factor of stress as more and more people on the Planet Earth are living below the poverty line with insufficient food, medical care and inadequate housing which is a great source of stress for their lives that can translate into serious physical and mental health conditions.

Their daily struggles in surmounting poverty and injustice to better their lives bring onto them and their families untold amounts of stress. Many persons are therefore forced to work longer hours, to walk longer distances to fetch water or food, to sleep on the streets, to declare bankruptcy, to indulge in addictive behaviors such as alcohol, drug abuse and violence with the false hope that these will resolve their deplorable conditions.
