NPP National population policyAfter independence the first objective of India...AKHILAPK2
After independence the first objective of Indian government was economic and social development. In economic and social development, government focus on to create the choices for the people to enhance the wellbeing of the population.
In 1952 India was first country in the world who launch the family planning program to decrease the birth rates.
A positive population policy which aims at reducing the birth rate and ultimately stabilising the growth rate of population.
In India, where the majority of people are illiterate, fatalist, and custom-ridden, and do not believe in family planning, only the government’s initiative can help in controlling population growth.
India is the most populous country in the world with one-sixth of the world's population.
The estimated total population in India amounted to approximately 1.42 billion people.
The current population of India is 1,433,840,754 as of Friday, November 24, 2023.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Objectives
• Describe The consequences of Population Growth In
Pakistan
• Identify Family Planning(FP) services available in
Pakistan
• Identify Social, economic, political and religious
aspects of FP in Pakistan
• Discuss the responsibilities/role of a nurse for FP
• Describe the indications, contraindications,
advantages and side effects of different
contraceptive methods
• Discuss the importance and counselling skills for FP
3. Population Growth and Its consequences
Key Facts
• World population continues to grow and is expected to peak around
at a level of almost 9.7 billion by 2050 and 10.4 billion by 2100.
• Most of this growth will take place in low-income and lower
middle-income countries.
• Because of the momentum of past growth, it is unlikely that the
increase of global population over the next 30 or 40 years will be
substantially faster or slower than anticipated in the population
projections of the United Nations
• Rapid population increase can exacerbate the challenge of ensuring
that future development is sustainable and inclusive.
4. Population Growth and Its consequences
Key Facts
• Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly
those related to health, education and gender equality, can
contribute to slowing global population growth.
• In countries with relatively high levels of fertility today,
investments in education and health can significantly increase
the positive but temporary economic impact of a favorable
age distribution created by a sustained decline in fertility
• Population growth magnifies the harmful impact of economic
processes on the environment; yet the rise in per capita
income has been more important than population growth in
driving increased production and consumption
5. Population Growth and Its consequences
Key Facts
• https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/pakistan-population/
• The current population of Pakistan is 232,376,803 as of Thursday, March
9, 2023, based on World meter elaboration of the latest United Nations
data.
• Pakistan 2020 population is estimated at 220,892,340 people at mid year
according to UN data.
• Pakistan population is equivalent to 2.83% of the total world population.
• Pakistan ranks number 5 in the list of countries (and dependencies) by
population.
• The population density in Pakistan is 287 per Km2 (742 people per mi2).
• The total land area is 770,880 Km2 (297,638 sq. miles)
• 35.1 % of the population is urban (77,437,729 people in 2020)
• The median age in Pakistan is 22.8 years.
6. Population Growth and Its consequences
Main consequences of population growth. The consequences are:
1. Investment: Faster population growth makes the choice more scarce
between higher consumption now and the investment needed to bring
higher consumption in the future
2. Overuse of Resources :Rapid population growth tends to overuse the
country’s natural resources. This is particularly the case where the
majority of people are dependent on agriculture for their livelihood
3. Urbanization: With rapidly growing population, it becomes difficult to
manage the adjustments that accompany economic and social change.
Urbanization in UDCs creates such problems as housing, power, water,
transport, etc. Besides, growing population threatens permanent
environmental damage through urbanization in some rural areas
7. Population Growth and Its consequences
4. Per Capita Income :The effect of population growth on per capita
income is unfavorable:
• It increases the pressure of population on land;
• it leads to rise in costs of consumption goods because of the
scarcity of the cooperant factors to increase their supplies; and
• it leads to a decline in the accumulation of capital because with
increase in family members, expenses increase.
5. Standard of Living: Since one of the important determinants of the
standard of living is the per capita income, the factors affecting per
capita income in relation to population growth equally apply to the
standard of living. A rapidly increasing population leads to an increased
demand for food products, clothes, houses.
8. Population Growth and Its consequences
6. Agricultural Development :In UDCs, people mostly live in rural
areas. Agriculture is their main occupation. So with population growth
the land-man ratio is disturbed. Pressure of population on land
increases because the supply of land is inelastic. It adds to disguised
unemployment and reduces per capita productivity further
7. Employment A rapidly increasing population plunges the economy
into mass unemployment and under-employment. As population
increases, the proportion of workers to total population rises. But in
the absence of complementary resources, it is not possible to expand
jobs
8. Social Infrastructure :Rapidly growing population necessitates large
investments in social infrastructure and diverts resources from directly
productive assets. Due to the scarcity of resources, it is not possible to
provide educational, health, medical, transport and housing facilities
to the entire population
9. Population Growth and Its consequences
9. Labor Force: The labor force in an economy is the ratio of working
population to total population
10. Capital Formation: Population growth retards capital formation. As
population increases, per capita available income declines. People are
required to feed more children with the same income. It means more
expenditure on consumption and a further fall in the already low
savings and consequently in the level of investment
11.Population Growth Leads to Environmental Damage: Scarcity of
land due to rapidly increasing population pushes large number of
people to ecologically sensitive areas such as hillsides and tropical
forests. It leads to overgrazing and cutting of forests for cultivation
leading to severe environmental damage
10. Population Growth and Its consequences
12. World Economy. Rapid population growth also affects UDCs in relation to
the world economy in a number of ways.
• Rapid population growth tends to increase income disparities between
UDCs and developed countries because the per capita incomes decline
with growth in numbers in the former.
• Rapid population growth encourages international migration.
• emigration tends to increase wages of workers substantially at home
• Another beneficial effect of this is that emigrants remit large sums of
money back home. This increases family incomes and their living
standards at home
• Rapid population growth the domestic consumption of even exportable
goods increases. Consequently, there is a decline in the exportable
surplus. On the other hand, to meet the demand of rapidly increasing
population, more food and other consumer goods are required.

13. Family Planning
According to WHO:
• “Family planning is a way of thinking and living that is
adopted voluntarily, upon the basis of knowledge, attitudes
and responsible decisions by individuals and couples, in
order to promote health & welfare of the family and thus
contribute effectively to the social development of a country”.
14. Family Planning
• Family Planning means deciding when is the right time to have
children, and what is the appropriate number of children for a
couple to have.
• The right time to have children is:
i. when a woman is between 20 and 35 years old;
ii. when a woman has not been pregnant for the last 2-3 years;
iii. when a woman has fewer children;
iv. when a woman has no illness that would place herself or her baby
in danger and;
v. when the couple wants to have a baby.
15. Family Planning
• If the above factors are not satisfied, then the woman, her baby,
and her pregnancy are at risk because:
1. There are more chances for the pregnancy to end in abortion or
miscarriage;
2. The woman is more likely to become anemic and malnourished.
3. She is prone to develop obstetrical complications such as
hemorrhage as well as gynecologic problems such as uterine
prolapse;
4. The baby has more chances of being born premature or with low
birth weight.
5. The incidence of stillbirths and fetal death will be higher.
16. Family Planning
• A woman’s ability to space and limit her pregnancies has a direct
impact on her health and well-being as well as on the outcome of
each pregnancy.
• Family planning reduces maternal mortality and improves women's
health by:
i. Preventing unwanted and high-risk pregnancies
ii. Reducing the need for unsafe abortions
iii. Reducing the likelihood of STDs/HIV
iv. Protecting against certain cancers and health problems
17.
18. Family Planning
• Family planning allows individuals and couples to anticipate and
attain their desired number of children and the spacing and timing
of their births.
• Family planning is an essential component of welfare programs.
Parallel efforts to improve women’s status and expand
opportunities for the very poor would make family planning much
easier to achieve.
19. Contraception
• Contraception may refer specifically to “mechanisms which are
intended to reduce the likelihood of conception”.
• Family Planning is achieved through use of contraceptive methods
and the treatment of involuntary infertility.
20. Unmeet need for Contraception
Women with unmet need are those who are productive and
sexually active but are not using any method of contraception,
and report not wanting any more children or wanting to delay
the next child.
▪ The concept of unmet need points to the gap between
women's reproductive intentions and their contraceptive
behavior
Unmet need is especially high among groups such as:
– Adolescents
– Migrants
– Urban slum dwellers
– Refugees
– Women in the postpartum period
21. Unmeet need for Contraception
• Globally, many women and couples want to postpone or
avoid pregnancy.
• According to 2017 estimates, 214 million women of
reproductive age in developing regions have an unmet need
for contraception. Reasons for this include:
1. Limited choice of methods
2. Limited access to contraception, particularly among young
people, poorer segments of populations, or unmarried
people
3. Fear or experience of side-effects
4. Cultural or religious opposition
5. Poor quality of available services
6. Gender-based barriers.
22. Methods of Contraception
• A variety of methods are available--both permanent and reversible,
long-acting and short-acting, methods for women and men.
• In addition to their effectiveness in preventing pregnancy, some
contraceptives also have substantial non-contraceptive health
benefits.
