In Armenia, women are more likely than men to hold higher education degrees, yet they have a much lower presence in government, both locally and nationally.

 

One organic way of getting women into politics is by starting at the local level. UNDP’s Women in Local Democracy programme has been working since 2012 to promote equality between women and men, including equal representation of women in decision-making processes.

We plant up to 40,000 trees every year in the Sarawak rainforest, and we work with the Penan People who have set up a co-operative to help them to replant 10,000 trees per year, thus both countering deforestation and supporting the Penan people in a process of sustainable development.

Layla Mohamed, 23, fled the Mogadishu conflict with her husband and 5 children, but now finds herself fighting to save her 1 year-old baby boy, Zam Zam.. World Vision staff discovered her in Muuse Rootile IDP camp, a collection of 6 smaller camps for drought and conflict refugees on the outskirts of Garowe, Puntland, Somalia. Wema Adere (wearing WV t-shirt), Nutrition Manager, and Benson Otrero, Health Project Manager could immediately tell how severe the baby's condition was when they saw his "old man" features. A measurement of his upper circumference confirmed that he is severely malnourished. They gave the mother Plumpy Nut to feed him and urged her to take him immediately to the camp center for malnourished children. Wema reminded the mother not to neglect regular breastfeeding. Layla replied, "I don't sleep enough because I am so worried. I wake up in the night and give drink to the baby."

Trekking through the jungle to reach the Penan people in Sarawak - visitors to the area arrive through our responsible travel and ethical tourism partner organisation Adventure Alternative, and we help the local community to benefit greatly from this, ensuring that the slow but steady flow of tourists contributes to a community led process of sustainable development.

These murals were started in 1976 during the era of Chicano Power as Mexican-Americans started to organize across the nation for better jobs and living conditions.

 

Pilsen murals are inspired by the works of famous Mexican muralist as Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco and Jose David Alfaro Siqueiros. The murals, painted on the rail viaduct, pre-date the California (San Francisco) movement that is famous and well documented. Pilsen muralists including Hector Duarte had the privilege of having Siqueiros as a teacher.

 

The murals were created without permission from the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railway, thus support for their preservation is difficult to leverage as these works are fading away.

Here's a few photos of some of the young folk from Westburn Youth Club enjoying basketball provided by UTD Sports Ltd.

 

The session was part of a number of taster classes taking place over the last few weeks, thanks to funding made available through Participatory Budgeting - where community members decide on how local funding is spent and what activities they want in their local community through a voting system.

 

The young people took part in a consultation event earlier in the year to decide what events they would like to take place in their local area - so far, they have enjoyed:

- Street dance & Hip Hop

- Hockey & Short Tennis

- Athletics & Badminton

- Cheerleader and Gymnastics

- Fun, Fitness and Rugby

 

Over the next few weeks, the young people will take part in a second consultation where they will decide what activities they would like to continue, and this will be rolled out over a continuous 12-week program.

 

Well done guys!

 

Fore The Kids Golf Outing 2022

Trustees spent the day exploring our many programs throughout Paterson

 

.Pattinathar was the first child to be rescued from bonded child labour in Gudiyattam, Tamil Nadu, India. Pattinathar's father was often ill. So his mother bonded him to a local beedi-cigarette manufacturer in exchange for Rs.1,100 to help meet the family's needs. He worked as a bonded labourer from the age of 7. Pattinathar endured beatings, hunger, and 16-hour days. He often tried to run away, only to be recaptured. He rolled cigarettes all day, every day, and was beaten, abused and chained at the ankles so he couldn't escape.

   

While World Vision was conducting a medical camp in his village, he approached the staff for treatment for scabies. He had a shackle on his ankle. When asked about this he told them that he was the bonded slave of a beedi contractor. He was eventually released from bondage after World Vision staff paid off the family’s debt to the contractor

Border Run - a burrito truck in Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand - has given Pawn a new life. The first of it's kind in the city, she started it with the help and mentorship of SIM missional business missionaries, Lauren and Steven Sauder. With her truck, Pawn has more financial independence than she could have ever imagined.

The Board of Supervisors designated April 2-6, 2018 as Community Development Week in Fairfax County.

The tree nursery we funded in the jungle in Sarawak. In Borneo we are working in close collaboration with the community to help them to resist, cope with and reverse the deforestation of their environment.

 

We do this in a way that promotes long term sustainable development of the community. We also help them to attract and draw great benefits from a controlled, manageable flow of visitors arriving through our responsible travel and ethical tourism partner organisation Adventure Alternative.
