A Community’s Role In NGO Working For Water Conservation In Maharashtra.pdfDishikaTyagi
India is a large country with some very significant water-related problems. According to a 2018 Niti Aayog assessment, by 2030, almost half of India’s 600 million inhabitants may experience acute water shortage. The quality of the nation’s water is likewise subpar. The contamination rate in India’s water supply is close to 70%. The two main pollutants are nitrate and iron. Even worse, India’s groundwater supply is gradually depleting. Out of 700 districts, 256 have reported “over-exploited” or “critical” groundwater levels. Involving the community with NGO working for water conservation in Maharashtra can be a terrific strategy to better equip people to address climate change.

Empowering and Building Capacities of Youth for Environment Literacy and Participation for developing Climate Change initiatives in Gujranwala District Punjab Pakistan.
India faces significant challenges in providing clean drinking water and sanitation to its population. Approximately 97 million people lack access to safe water and 814 million lack basic sanitation services. Poor sanitation and unsafe water have led to widespread health issues, with over 1,600 deaths from diarrhea alone every day. While India has undertaken various efforts and programs to expand access, issues around management, funding, awareness, and equitable access persist. Addressing India's water and sanitation crisis will require improved coordination, prioritization of hygiene education, consideration of all socioeconomic groups, and innovative solutions tailored to local needs.

Clean Water and Forest Preservation in 13 Villages, Ram Pumps - Green Empower...Fatin62c
This document summarizes a project by Green Empowerment and AIDFI to install hydraulic ram pumps in 13 villages on Negros Island in the Philippines to provide clean water. The ram pumps would benefit over 9,000 people across the villages, saving women and children from having to haul water up steep hillsides. Three villages already have functioning ram pumps, while five more have secured funding and five additional villages still need funding. The ram pumps use the momentum of flowing water and no external energy to pump water uphill, improving health, education, and allowing for growing food. The project aims to protect local ecosystems and engage communities in forest preservation.

The document summarizes and critiques the Puno ConCom constitution proposal. It argues that the proposal is objectionable due to the current populist context in the Philippines and some concerning content changes. Specifically, it argues that the proposal would further concentrate power in the presidency and weaken checks on executive authority. Additionally, it questions whether federalism is actually the best means to address poverty and inequality in the country based on empirical studies. The document raises doubts about the transition process and risks of political dynasties gaining more regional control under the proposed federal system.
The document summarizes the major proposals from the Constitutional Committee to revise the 1987 Philippine Constitution and adopt a federal system. It is proposed that the country be transformed into a Federal Republic comprised of 18 federated regions. Power would be distributed between the federal government and the regions. The federal government would be responsible for defense, foreign affairs, currency, while the regions would handle infrastructure, tourism, and economic development. It is also proposed to establish four new high courts to divide the judicial powers and help speed up case resolution.
Caliba autonomy as a mechanism to address exclusion and enhance participation...Philippine Press Institute
This document discusses regional autonomy and self-governance as mechanisms to address the historical exclusion of minorities in the Philippines and enhance their political participation. It outlines how the 1987 Constitution and Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act recognize the rights of indigenous groups to self-determination and ancestral lands. However, some court cases have challenged these rights and concerns remain regarding the draft federal constitution. The document argues that autonomy and upholding indigenous rights will strengthen inclusion and that these rights should be firmly established in the constitution.
This document discusses past attempts at charter change in the Philippines and reasons they failed. It notes that almost every administration since martial law has proposed charter change. Past efforts failed because they were seen as ways for presidents to extend their terms rather than due to a lack of merit in the proposed amendments. Specific failed attempts discussed include those under President Erap, Gloria Arroyo, and a PDP-Laban proposal. Skepticism of charter change comes from the misuse of constitutional amendments under Marcos.

It covers topics such as shared rule and divided rule between central and regional governments, representation of regional governments in decision making, protection of regional identities, and the division of powers between central and regional levels of government. The document also examines variations that can exist in federal systems, such as asymmetric powers among regions, presidential vs parliamentary systems, and electoral systems. Flexibility, diversity of regional regimes, types of federal party systems, and functions of upper legislative houses are also addressed.

This document provides a guide to fact checking by defining what fact checking is, why it is important, who does it, and how it is done. Fact checking is determining the truth and accuracy of statements in nonfiction texts by verifying claims before or after publication. It promotes accountability and transparency in journalism. Fact checkers investigate politicians' statements and articles for false or misleading claims using sources like government records, statistics, and expert interviews. They preserve evidence and present just the facts to debunk "fake news" while maintaining transparency in their sources and methods.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
1. Best practices of Pantawid Pamilya beneficiaries in Mandaluyong:
“Kabuhayan sa Gulayan na Dapat Tularan”
By: Gulay Power Group
In the year 2018, Mandaluyong’s Sanctuary Pantawid Urban Garden won as “Best
Gulayan sa Barangay” of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program in the National
Capital Region.
An ocular inspection of the garden gives a visitor an idea of how the trees and herbs
benefit the community but the very essence and dynamics of the project is more
than meets the eye. The success story of this garden embodies the Filipino’s tug of
war against poverty itself.
In 2012, the grueling requirements could have discouraged the farmers in starting
the project. Establishing and maintaining an urban garden is considered a challenge
for lack of space and water supply. At the onset, they were only provided ½ hectare
of land. They also experienced scarce water supply in the following year to the point
that some plants withered during summer. The beneficiaries faced this challenge
by carrying gallons of water everyday to water their plants.
Their persistence has given the LGU of Mandaluyong enough reason for support.
Provision for the installation of their own water supply came in 2016. Moreover,
when the center noticed how they maintained cleanliness and order in their
premises, they were granted expansion, utilizing idle land size which was more than
a hectare. This meant more varieties of plants, herbs and trees and eventually, a
thriving livelihood for the community. The seedlings they use to plant in their
garden were mostly given by the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR) and the Department of Agriculture (DA).
To expand their knowledge on gardening, the Pantawid Pamilya conducted
discussions on communal gardening through its Family Development Session (FDS)
to promote the importance of food security, nutrition and sustainable
development among the beneficiaries.
