Dear Student,

This form of 'to+v+ing' is called a gerund. In such cases, 'to' forms a part of the verb itself. In this scenario, if 'have' (in part 2) was replaced by 'be giving' (with the +ing form), then 'developing themselves' could be an appropriate part. Hope, the given solution helps to clear your understanding.
