Journal Title: Journal of Economics, Finance and Management Studies - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 03

Abstract

This paper examines the contribution of natural resources to the growth of human capital stock in Chad. Indeed, natural resources are known as the main lever for the development of developing nations; particularly education. However, the natural resource curse phenomenon strongly influences the production of human capital in developing countries. The question being to know what is the effect of natural resources in the formation of human capital in the education sector in Chad? As part of this research, we opted for a hypothetical-deductive approach with two secondary hypotheses, namely: natural resources positively impact human capital in Chad and human resource management negatively influence the education sector in Chad. The questionnaire was administered to 356 teachers in the French-speaking public sector. The results show that natural resources influence human capital, especially education (Ross, 2004). However, with regard to the management of human resources in the education sector, the results show that the exploitation of natural resources does not allow good management of human resources. The negativity of the contribution of Natural Resources to the management of human resources is thus verified (GylfaƧon, 2001). Theoretical and managerial implications are proposed, as well as proposals for future research arising from the limitations of the study.
