Sabita Panda is the mother of Govinda Panda staying at Shaktivihar slum for 20 years with her husband Ajay Panda, two sons and a daughter. Her husband is a wall painter. Sabita is the house wife as well as an active member of SHG. They are migrated from Jagatsinghpur district. The family was suffering a lot due to lack of water facilities in the slum. In the beginning there was only one bore well which was installed by BMC where 250 families depended on this for water. Due to the water problem her children could not go to school regularly.. After intervention of world vision people requested the project to help them in this regard. World vision generously facilitated a bore well with overhead water tank. She says “I am able to serve food to my husband and children in time. My family is able to wear clean dress and have sufficient water for drinking and bathing. I give my Hearty thanks to World vision because World Vision not only gave water but gave us LIFE. World Vision is our Patha Padarsaka (World vision is our guide) ”. Now there is no tension in the community

Sisson-South Whitney Historic District
Hartford, Connecticut
Listed 07/24/2013
Reference Number: 13000526
The Sisson-South Whitney Historic District is historically and architecturally significant as an example of mid-nineteenth- to early twentieth-century residential and neighborhood commercial development (Criterion A). The district is located along the western edge of the City of Hartford, an area that remained essentially rural as late as the early 1880s, yet felt the increasing pressure of suburban expansion between 1890 and 1930. The development of the Sisson-South Whitney Historic District is typical of Hartford's suburbs and is demonstrative of the effects of population increases and sprawl that followed economic growth and the build up of the city's central neighborhoods during the late nineteenth century. As such, the district is significant as an example of one of Hartford's working- and middle-class streetcar suburbs. Of particular importance is the developmental transition that redefined the character of the neighborhood during the 1910s and 1920s, thus making it architecturally and demographically unique from the historic districts that surround it. Initially marketed and developed as scenic enclave for Hartford's upper-middle class, the increased mobility provided by Hartford's trolley system meant that those of more modest means could also afford to live in this part of one of the city's premier neighborhoods. As such, the proposed district saw the increased construction of housing and businesses oriented towards the needs of the working and middle classes. The district is a highly intact, architecturally cohesive neighborhood of single- and multi-family homes, small apartment buildings, as well as commercial blocks, that reflect the significant residential architectural styles of the midnineteenth to early twentieth century (Criterion C). Italianate, Late-Gothic Revival, Folk Victorian, Queen Anne, Shingle, Colonial Revival, Neoclassical Revival, Beaux Arts, Italian Renaissance Revival, and modem vernacular forms, can be found, many being demonstrative of the frequency with which designers combined a number of influences to create eclectically-styled homes. A number of local builders and prominent architects designed and constructed homes in the district, contributing further to the significance of this historic neighborhood.

The system we have installed in Ilkilorit comprises a heavy duty rubber bag as the digester. It sits mostly above ground and uses PVC pipes for inputs and outputs. Plastic gas pipes tap the gas from the digester and transfer it to the point of use. Early research has shown the waste from one cow (10-15kg per day) is enough to sustain a household of 4 people, meeting their domestic fuel needs for cooking. It is also possible to run a converted generator off the gas that can make electricity to power homes, schools and shops, or recharge batteries.

Nações Unidas, Praia, 17 de Outubro - O Dia Internacional para a Erradicação da Pobreza, foi assinalado, de entre outras actividades com a realização de Jornada de Intercâmbio Jornada de Intercâmbio da Ilha de Santiago sob o lema "Da Pobreza à Sustentabilidade: As pessoas no centro do desenvolvimento inclusivo"
Na ocasião, em representação do PNUD em Cabo, Heloisa Marone, Economista Sénior dessa organização, ressaltou o progresso muito positivo verificado na redução da pobreza o que facilitará a Cabo Verde atingir a meta do 1º Objectivo de Desenvolvimento do Milénio antes de 2015, considerando que para avançar na luta contra a pobreza de forma efectiva e duradoura, Cabo Verde deverá continuar a buscar novas formas de crescimento mais equilibradas, que deverá integrar a área rural na economia nacional. Por essa razão, Heloisa Marone assegurou que as Nações Unidas estão comprometidas a continuar a trabalhar junto ao governo de Cabo Verde para buscar soluções que lidem directamente com estas assimetrias económicas e sociais para que todo o povo de Cabo Verde possa usufruir de forma conjunta, harmónica e pacífica os frutos do progresso alcançados desde a independência nacional.
Ao presidir o acto a Ministra da Juventude, Emprego e Desenvolvimento dos Recursos Humanos, Janira Hopffer Almada, destacou a importância deste programa na diminuição do número de pobres em Cabo Verde e enfatizou a transversalidade do programa Nacional de Luta Contra a Pobreza nas políticas do governo e a necessidade de continuar a reduzir a pobreza de forma durável e sustentável. "Os dados indicam um salto qualitativo na redução da pobreza com a mudança na implementação dos princípios do PNLP a favor da promoção do empreendedorismo social e as actividades geradoras de rendimento", frisou a ministra.
Ao referir-se aos resultados do PNLP, o Coordenador Executivo, Ramiro Azevedo, considerou positivo o balanço da execução dos sucessivos programas de luta contra a pobreza, conforme atestam os resultados e os impactos dos mesmos na qualidade de vida das populações beneficiárias. O Coordenador apontou alguns factores determinantes da pobreza ainda por resolver em Cabo Verde: "uma base produtiva nacional pouco diversificada, elevados custos de bens e serviços, baixos níveis de empregabilidade, taxa de desemprego ainda elevada, acentuadas assimetrias no desenvolvimento regional, e desempenho do sector agro-pecuário ainda incipiente".
Durante a Jornada foram assinados contratos num valor de 34 milhões de escudos para apoio a organizações de micro-finanças, nomeadamente AMUSA, UNSOCOR-Coop, OMCV, Morabi, Citi-Habitat e Fami-Picos, assim como um Protocolo com a Direcção Geral dos Serviços Penitenciários e Reinserçaõs Social, e os contratos do gestor, contabilista e animador da CRP de Santiago Centro.
O Programa de Luta contra a Pobreza no Meio Rural (PLPR), inserido no PNLP, teve o seu arranque no ano 2000 para uma duração estimada de 9 anos e iniciou a sua actividade nas ilhas de Santiago (S. Miguel e Tarrafal), Fogo, Brava, S. Nicolau e Santo Antão e hoje estendeu-se a Santiago Sul, Santiago Centro, Maio e S.Vicente. As actividades do PLPR têm uma abordagem participativa e assentam nas Associações Comunitárias de Desenvolvimento (ACD) que, nas respectivas comunidades, desencadeiam de forma participativa todo o processo de identificação, elaboração e seguimento-avaliação dos planos anuais de trabalho e respectivo orçamento.
