A disaster is defined as any event, natural or man-made, that threatens lives and property and disrupts normal life. Disasters exceed the ability of affected communities and governments to cope. Hazards threaten people, structures, and assets and can cause disasters. Vulnerability is the likelihood of damage from a hazard due to factors like proximity and susceptibility. Risk is the probability of consequences from hazards people are exposed to. Disaster management involves coordination across organizations in preparedness, response, and recovery phases of disasters to reduce risks and improve capacity to handle disasters.
C7_D11 Community Participation and Empowerment_Rabindra Nath Sabatocasiconference
Community participation and empowerment involve three key concepts - participation, community, and empowerment.
[1] Participation refers to the level and phase of involvement of community members, from merely being informed to acting together in partnerships. It is important to identify who is involved from the community.
[2] A community is a group of interacting people living in a common location who have developed social bonds and a shared identity. Key factors that define a community include its history, social and economic characteristics, and culture.
[3] Empowerment is the process of enhancing people's freedom of choice and ability to influence decisions affecting their lives. It involves access to information, participation, accountability, and building local organizational
1. The document discusses empowering women through self-development, career growth, and decision making. It defines empowerment as gaining power, resources, and control over one's own life.
2. Women can empower themselves and each other through education, skills development, asserting their opinions, and having control over their environment and choices in life.
3. Achieving empowerment involves growing in five dimensions: social standing, education, career impact, political participation, and decision making control over life. Tips are provided for empowering women through self-respect, developing skills, being healthy, and being an equal partner.
This document outlines a school's preparedness plan in the event of a disaster. It includes forms for mapping hazards and capacities within the school environment and each classroom. It also provides templates for creating an evacuation map of the school indicating hazards, capacities, and meeting points. The plan identifies students who require special assistance during evacuation and includes a preparedness checklist for the principal to ensure all necessary preparations are made, such as conducting evacuation drills, updating emergency contact lists, and preparing emergency supplies.
The document discusses challenges in managing community relationships and participation for projects at the Minnesota History Center, including balancing authenticity with participation, finding the right community members, and marketing programs while building audiences in advance. It addresses tensions between large crowds and historical programming, and notes the labor intensive nature of relinquishing control to community involvement.
This document discusses integrating disaster risk reduction education into school curricula in the Philippines. It provides details on disaster preparedness plans and programs that were found in a 2010 study of schools in Luzon, including that 95% had disaster committees and conducted annual drills. The document then outlines components of developing a school disaster management plan, including designating emergency responders and evacuation procedures. Diagrams show examples of school layouts, evacuation routes, and organizing an emergency response team.
Society is defined as a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, sharing the same territory and political authority. The document discusses the evolution of different types of societies from hunting and gathering to agricultural to industrial to postindustrial. It also examines kinship systems and how they define relationships through descent and marriage. Key kinship patterns discussed include Iroquois, Crow, Omaha, Eskimo, Hawaiian and Sudanese. The document also addresses social stratification, norms, roles, status and descent groups within societies.
There are three main types of governments: autocracy, oligarchy, and democracy. In an autocracy, one ruler holds unlimited power and citizens cannot participate in government. An oligarchy is ruled by a small group who hold power through means like wealth or military force, limiting citizen participation. By contrast, a democracy puts power in the hands of citizens through voting, allowing all citizens to participate in decision making and representation.
There are three main types of governments: autocratic, oligarchic, and democratic. Autocratic governments concentrate power in the hands of a single ruler, while oligarchic governments distribute power among a small group. Democratic governments give power to citizens, allowing them to vote and run for office. Within democracies, there are parliamentary and presidential systems that differ in how the executive and legislative branches are structured and relate to each other.
Civil society refers to uncoerced collective action around shared interests, purposes and values. It includes non-governmental organizations, community groups, advocacy groups and more. Civil society plays a vital role in democracy by allowing private initiative separate from government. Diversity is an important element of civil society, recognizing differences in individuals. Non-governmental organizations are legally constituted groups created by private organizations without government participation or representation.
This document discusses the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and citizen groups in politics and governance. It argues that politics involves not just formal government structures, but also the actions of social groups and their interactions with government. NGOs and citizen groups can play an important role by organizing communities, advocating for people's interests, linking the powerful and disempowered, and providing alternative mechanisms for delivering social services. They can help facilitate greater citizen participation in policymaking and enhance democracy.
Nationality refers to belonging to a particular nation through birth or naturalization. It provides the right to live and work permanently in a country and obtain documents like a passport from that country. Citizenship is defined as having the rights, privileges, and duties of a citizen of a state or political community. Citizenship allows voting rights but not necessarily the right to live in a country. Some key differences between nationality and citizenship are that nationality provides social security rights while citizenship is more exclusive. Dual nationality arises when a person acquires nationality in two countries according to their differing citizenship laws. Issues with dual nationality include potential double taxation, conflicting military obligations between countries, and lack of clarity around diplomatic protection.

Citizenship involves membership in a political society that implies duties of allegiance and protection. There are various ways to acquire citizenship, such as by birth in a country (jus soli) or descent from citizen parents (jus sanguinis). Citizenship can also be acquired through naturalization which makes a foreigner a citizen. Citizens have rights like suffrage but also duties like obeying laws and defending the state. Losing citizenship can occur voluntarily like gaining a foreign citizenship or involuntarily like being declared a deserter.

This document provides information about reclaiming one's citizenship and rights by obtaining a passport as a "State Citizen" rather than a U.S. citizen. It explains that a U.S. citizen refers to a legal fiction of the federal corporation, not an actual person with rights. By obtaining a passport while indicating one is a "State Citizen" and not a U.S. citizen, one can potentially avoid taxes, tickets, licenses and fees as their rights would be secured by the Constitution as a Citizen of one of the States. It includes details on how to fill out the passport application and common traps to avoid, such as always checking "no" to being a U.S. citizen.
Citizenship refers to membership in a political society that implies duties of allegiance and protection. There are various ways to acquire citizenship, including by birth (jus sanguinis or jus soli) or naturalization. Citizenship can also be lost voluntarily through actions like obtaining foreign citizenship, or involuntarily through cancellation. The Philippines follows jus sanguinis and recognizes dual citizenship obtained by natural-born citizens who naturalize abroad. Citizens have rights and duties, including being loyal to the state and defending it.
This document discusses citizenship and the rights and duties of citizens under the Philippine constitution. It defines citizenship and outlines different ways of acquiring citizenship, such as by birth or naturalization. It also discusses how citizenship can be lost and reacquired.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...Joshua Orris
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
3. The value of citizenship varies from nation to nation, In some countries, citizenship can mean a
citizen has the right to vote, the right to hold government offices, and the right to collect
unemployment insurance payments, to name a few exemples.
Living in a country does not mean that a person is necessarily a citizen of that country. Citizens
of one country who live in a foreign country are known as aliens. Their rights and duties are
determined by political treaties and by the laws of the country in which they stay. Legal aliens
are entitled to protection under the law and to use of the courts. They may also own property,
carry on business, and attend public schools. But aliens cannot vote or hold government office. In
some states they are not allowed to practice certain professions until they become citizens.
4. Every nation provides ways of becoming a citizen. For most people citizenship is a matter of birth.
For others it may be acquired through a process known as naturalization.
Two rules are used to determine citizenship by birth: (1) jus sanguinis ("law of the blood"); and
(2) jus soli ("law of the soil"). Under jus sanguinis, children take their parents' nationality
regardless of where they are born. For example, a child born to Italian parents in Britain is a citizen
of Italy. On the other hand, the rule of jus soli says that children are citizens of the nation in
which they are born, no matter what the parents' nationalities are. Thus a child born to Italian
parents in Britain is also a citizen of Britain. Since most nations apply both of these rules, a person
can become a citizen of two nations. This is called dual citizenship.
Dual citizenship can result from naturalization, which is the legal way in which people change their
citizenship. Internal law protects naturalized citizens as long as they live in their new country. But
they may lose their new citizenship if they return to the country of their birth and remain for a
long time. In wartime, a serious problem could arise if both countries demand their services in the
armed forces.
5. Most nations permit individuals to give up their citizenship. This act, known as expatriation,
means that a person no longer wants the rights and responsibilities of citizenship in a
particular country. Such a person may then become a citizen of another country or may
become a stateless person (one without a country)
Example:
A person can lose U.S. citizenship for serving in the armed forces of, or holding office in, a
foreign government. U.S.
citizenship can also be taken away from people who have been convicted of a major federal
crime, such as treason. But people cannot lose their citizenship for something they were
forced to do. A person who is forced to serve in a foreign army, for example, will not lose
U.S. citizenship.
