Matej Gaspar of Yugoslavia was designated the world's 5 billionth person in July 1989, though this was arbitrary as no one knows the exact date population reached 5 billion. The UN chose Zagreb as the location as the UN Secretary-General was visiting there. World Population Day was established on July 11th to raise awareness of population issues. The 2018 theme was "Family Planning is a Human Right" marking the 50th anniversary of its recognition as a basic human right. Family planning allows people to freely determine the number and spacing of children and is a key factor in empowering women.
The document discusses national integration in India. It notes that India has a plural society with many religions, castes, ethnicities, languages, and cultures represented.

It also discusses approaches youth can take to work toward goals of eliminating poverty, discrimination, and creating opportunities. These include pursuing education, teaching literacy, planting trees, reducing addiction, and working for a just and corruption-free society. The conclusion quotes JFK's call to citizens to ask how they can serve their country.

This document discusses constraints to youth empowerment and national development in Nigeria. It identifies several key constraints facing Nigerian youth: lack of quality education, limited youth participation in research and data collection, high unemployment and underemployment rates, widespread poverty, the HIV/AIDS pandemic, discrimination against girls, and a digital divide. These constraints have hindered Nigerian youth from meaningfully contributing to national development and created conditions that can lead youth to engage in deviant behaviors. For Nigeria to achieve stability and development, it is critical that these obstacles facing youth are addressed and their potential is harnessed.

Youth councils an effective way to promote youth participationDr Lendy Spires
This document discusses youth councils and their effectiveness in promoting youth participation. It provides 6 case studies of youth councils operating at local, national, regional, and international levels in Africa. The case studies illustrate different types of youth councils based on their focus, structure, and roles.

Sustainable development, in general, refers to the process of socio-economic development through a judicious utilization of nature’s resources, keeping in view the needs of future generations.
When we talk of sustainable development in relation to education per se we must be clear in our mind the concept, scope and application of terms like sustainability, development and also education.
The Sustainable Development Goals—officially known as "Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development"—are an intergovernmental set of 17 aspirational goals and 169 targets that now apply to all countries. SDG 4 (quality education) and SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth) seek to address primary concerns of youth.

Research Framework and Methodology .pptx Situation Analysis.AnaLyn523989
The research framework and Methodology, These two elements serve as the backbone of study, guiding its design and execution, and ultimately determining its validity and reliability.
The Research framework, also known as theoretical or conceptual framework, provides the overall direction for the study. It outlines the key concept, theories, or ideas that that underpin the research, and maps the research, and maps out how these are related to each other. it provides a lens through which the researcher views the world and shapes the questions they ask, the data they collect, and how they interpret this data.
On the other hand, the research Methodology, refers to the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select the process, and analyze information. It includes the research design, the sampling method, the data collection technique, and the statistical tools used for data analysis. The methodology ensures that the research is conducted in a systematic, logical, and unbiased manner.
Together, the research framework and methodology form the blueprint of the research. they ensure that the study is grounded in existing knowledge, follows a clear and coherent structure, and employs rigorous and appropriate methods.
As we delve deeper into these topics, we will explore their importance in ensuring the quality and integrity of research, discuss various types of research frameworks and methodologies, and provide practical tips for developing your own. Whether you are a seasoned researcher or a beginner, understanding these elements is key to conducting effective and impactful research.
What are some common research designs used in research methodology?
Research design is a critical aspect Research methodology as it provides the overall structure for the procedure the researcher follows.
Experimental Design, This design is commonly used in scientific research where the researcher manipulates one variable and observe the effect on another variable. It is typically used to establish cause and effect relationship.
Quasi Experimental Design, Similar to the experiment design, but lacks of elements of random assignment. It's often used when it's not practical or ethical to conduct a fully controlled experiment.
Descriptive design, This involves gathering detailed information about specific phenomenon or behavior without manipulating any variables. Surveys, case study, and observational research fall into category.
Correlational Design, This used to study the relationship between two or more variables without manipulating any of them. It can reveal patterns of association, but it does not establish causation.
Longitudinal Design, In this design, researchers conduct several observations of the same subjects over period of time, sometimes lasting many years
Cross sectional design, This involves looking at different groups of people who differ in one key characteristic at one specific point in time

Up:
Resiliency
Paradigm
• Resiliency
research
provides
solid
evidence
for
the
emphasis
on
human
development
among
high-‐risk
populaIons.
According
to
Maston
(1994),
“…nature
has
provided
powerful
protecIve
mechanisms
for
human
development”
that
“appear
to
transcend
ethnic,
social
class,
geographical,
and
historical
boundaries”(Werner
&
Smith,
1992).
Henderson
(1999)

suggests
that
resiliency
addresses
universal
human
condiIons
from
a
strengths
based
perspecIve.

RecommendaIons
from
Dr.

• The
need
to
think
strategically
about
development,
analyzing
a
country’s
potenIal
role
in
its
region
and
the
world
in
search
of
opportuniIes
for
growth
• The
need
to
get
past
myths,
stereotypes,
and
assumpIons
about
poor
countries
and
their
relaIons
to
their
neighbors
• The
need
to
find
fresh,
posiIve
approaches
to
development
that
emphasize
the
potenIal
strengths
of
a
country
and
its
people,
not
just
their
problems,
and
• The
need
to
think
about
how
social
business
can
address
social
and
economic
problems
that
are
usually
lej
to
be
resolved
by
governments.
