According to one United Nations estimate, 113 to 200 million women are “demographically missing” from the world today. That is to say, there should be 113 to 200 million more women walking the earth, who aren’t. By that same estimate, 1.5 to 3 million women and girls lose their lives every year because of gender-based neglect or gender-based violence and Sexual Violence in Conflict.
We can point a finger at poverty. But poverty alone does not result in these girls and women’s deaths and suffering; the blame also falls on the social system and attitudes of the societies.
India alone accounts for more than 50 million of the women who are “missing” due to female foeticide - the sex-selective abortion of girls, dowry death, gender-based neglect and all forms of violence against women.
The decline in the sex ratio and the millions of Missing Women are indicators of the feudal patriarchal resurgence. Violence against women has gone public – whether it is dowry murders, the practice of female genital mutilation, honour killings, sex selective abortions or death sentences awarded to young lovers from different communities by caste councils, rapes and killings in communal and caste violence, it is only women’s and human rights groups who are protesting – the public and institutional response to these trends is very minimal. Most of the values are insufficiently imagined and fundamentally flawed.
More than two-thirds of the women’s populations don’t have access to the financial system. Poor women are not considered credit worthy. Every human being should have the “right to credit” because if people have money, they can change their lives. It is true for women. Nearly half the world’s population live in poverty, 70% are women.

Freedom Powerpoint Presentation Template
This presentation discusses women's rights and freedom. It emphasizes that women's rights are fundamental human rights that were established by the UN nearly 70 years ago. These rights include freedom from violence, slavery, discrimination, and the right to education, property ownership, voting, and equal wages. However, around the world women still face denial of these rights often due to their gender. Ensuring women's rights requires more than opportunities for individuals - it means changing laws, policies, mindsets, and supporting women's organizations.
social problem faced by indian women.ppt
The document discusses various social problems faced by women in India, according to Nehru's view that a nation's condition can be assessed by looking at the status of its women. It outlines issues like female feticide, dowry, restrictions on widows remarrying, gender bias, child neglect and child marriage. Specific problems discussed in more depth include female feticide resulting in a skewed sex ratio, child marriage where many girls bear children before age 19, and dowry practices that are regulated by the groom's salary and education level.
Crisis in Darfur2
Millions of Sudanese people have been forced from their homes due to violence from militias, with over 300,000 murdered and towns destroyed, while the government does not help and violence occurs every day. Children suffer from illness and lack of food. The document calls on people to help the Sudanese people who cannot help themselves by learning more at http://www.savedarfur.org about how to provide assistance before it is too late.
The pursuit of gender equity
Gender equity aims for justice and fairness for women in society despite differences between men and women. While achieving full equity may be difficult, it is important to empower women through education and eradicate discrimination against them. Historically, women have faced disadvantages and a lack of rights compared to men in many cultures and religions. However, we must recognize that all people, regardless of gender, possess unique abilities and ideas and deserve equal respect and opportunities. Promoting gender equity in the current generation through education can help overcome historical gender biases.
Save the girl child
Female foeticide refers to killing the female fetus in the mother's womb, a practice that has occurred for ages in India due to poverty, gender discrimination, lack of education, and traditional practices. If not addressed, female infanticide will lead to the extinction of Indian women. It is the responsibility of the educated generation to educate both the educated and uneducated through various means like movies and government policies to end this crime against the girl child.

woman empowernment
This document discusses the issues of women's empowerment in India. It notes that Indian women still face significant marginalization and lack equal status to men in many areas of life. Some key issues highlighted include high rates of child marriage, maternal mortality, lack of access to education and employment, and social customs that restrict women's mobility and participation. The document argues that empowering women through increasing access to education, self-employment opportunities, basic needs programs, and changing social attitudes is necessary for advancing women's rights and achieving greater gender equality and national progress in India.
Immigration opinion
The document discusses immigration to the United States. It argues that while the government is concerned with illegal immigration, it does not provide many legal options for immigrants to enter the country. It also claims that barriers like border walls send the message that immigrants are not wanted. The document advocates for allowing more immigrants to enter legally to work and eventually gain citizenship, as immigrants fill jobs that many native-born Americans do not want and immigration has historically been an important part of American culture.

This presentation will feature pioneering work from Nigeria's film industry, innovative video and mobile projects in Malawi, and the first animated series for girls in Ethiopia. Panelists will explore how technology can provide a platform for youth health justice and share insights from ongoing work at the forefront of global youth-led media.
5-Emigos
The document discusses women's empowerment, equality, and security in India. It notes that empowering women does not mean antagonizing men, but that both genders need to understand each other's needs. It states that opening more vocational training institutes could help unemployed or illiterate women gain skills and earn livelihoods. The concept of "Each One Teach One" is introduced, implying that educated individuals should teach others to increase awareness. Challenges to implementing women's empowerment programs like cultural restrictions and discrimination are also outlined. Overall, the document advocates for initiatives like vocational training, literacy programs, and employment opportunities to economically and socially empower women in India.
Women's Issues in the Developing World - Gender Inequality
This document discusses forms of gender inequality faced by women in developing countries. It notes that women face discrimination in access to education and economic opportunities. This restricts women's skills and participation in the workforce, contributing to lower salaries and food insecurity for women. The document also discusses how gender inequality can lead to poor child welfare outcomes, including higher rates of illness and malnutrition for children. Overall, it argues that addressing gender inequality through increased access to education, food, and justice is important for development.
Gender inequality
This document summarizes the various forms of gender inequality that exist in India. It discusses employment, ownership, basic facilities, household, and education inequalities that women face. Women often have less access to work opportunities and promotions. Property rights have traditionally favored men. Women also bear a greater burden of housework and childcare. The female literacy rate is significantly lower than the male rate in India, which impacts overall economic growth and development initiatives like family planning.
Violence in egypt
Violence against women is a major problem in Egypt. Many Egyptian women and men believe that domestic violence is acceptable. Egyptian media also often portrays polygamy and abuse of women in a positive light. Globalization has brought both benefits and challenges to women's rights in Egypt. It has spread messages of feminism but also caused some Egyptian men to react negatively and harass women. While progress has been made in Egypt in establishing organizations like the National Council for Women, the author believes continued globalization could help Egypt further develop policies to achieve greater gender equality.
AHundredFishinaTank-LolitaBeylina
The document summarizes an advertisement campaign by UN Women that aimed to highlight widespread sexism against women. The campaign featured a photo of a Muslim woman with her mouth covered by autocomplete search terms like "controlled" and "disciplined" that reveal negative stereotypes. The purpose was to draw attention to the lack of voice and oppression faced by women in patriarchal societies. It was intended to promote the mission of UN Women to achieve equality and empowerment for women globally.
Girl Rights and Protection in India
A girl is like a flower to be nurtured. She is a goddess to be revered. She is mother earth that sustains the very breath of humanity. How can man even think of killing her in the womb? It is said in the Bhagwat Gita that the karma of the past catches up. For those who have killed their daughters mercilessly they will go through the same fate. But the woman whose tender heart continues to nurture will still give a chance to evil to redeem. Unless India gives women a chance to survive, it would fail as the world’s largest democracy.
Gender equality
The document discusses empowering women and girls through achieving gender equality. It highlights five bold women driving change for women's human rights through initiatives like secret schools in Afghanistan and the first women's fund in Mexico. Women's human rights include the right to live free from violence, slavery, and discrimination, as well as rights to education, property ownership, voting, and equal wages. The goals of empowering women include providing equal access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, as well as greater representation in political and economic decision making. Woman abuse and trafficking disproportionately impact women and girls worldwide. The document profiles Malala Yousafzai, who advocates for girls' education and survived an assassination attempt by the Taliban for her work

Gender Equality
The document discusses various concepts related to gender including gender parity, equality, neutrality and equity. Gender parity refers to comparing indicators like income across genders, and the Global Gender Gap Report found parity won't be reached for almost 100 years. Gender equality means equal access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender identity. The document outlines manifestations of gender inequality faced by women, men and other genders as well as how gender neutrality aims to avoid discrimination by not distinguishing roles based on sex or gender. Finally, gender equity means allocating resources and decision making fairly to all genders based on their needs rather than just equal treatment.
Women empowerment
Women empowerment aims to create an environment where women can make independent decisions and achieve equality in society. In India, discrimination against women has existed for generations through issues like gender-based discrimination, female feticide, child marriage, literacy gaps between males and females, lack of job opportunities, and honor killings. Several pioneering women like Ramabai Pandita, Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Aung San Suu Kyi, Mother Teresa, and Benazir Bhutto have overcome hardships to empower themselves and work towards empowering other women.

1) Sex-selective abortion in India has led to a severe decline in the sex ratio, with some areas having fewer than 800 girls for every 1,000 boys.
2) The trend is stronger among urban, literate families and has continued despite laws banning sex determination tests and increasing punishments.
3) An estimated 113-200 million women are "missing" globally due to factors like sex-selective abortion, neglect, and violence against women. India accounts for over 50 million of these missing women.

Poverty
The document discusses poverty in India and globally. It notes that poverty is caused by factors like dependence on primitive agriculture, high population growth, natural disasters, corruption, lack of access to education, and socioeconomic inequalities. Some key statistics provided include that almost half the world lives on less than $2.50 a day, nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read, and 1 billion children live in poverty globally. The effects of poverty mentioned are increased crimes, exploitation of the poor, high population growth, illiteracy, inequality, and migration.

This document discusses gender equality and the status of women worldwide. While women have made progress in some areas, significant inequalities remain. Women earn on average three-fourths of what men earn for the same work. They also do 67% of the world's work but earn only 10% of the world's income. Domestic violence, rape, and female infanticide continue to plague many societies. For real change to occur, both men and women must work together towards equality within their homes and communities.

It provides alarming statistics showing that millions of girls are aborted or do not survive childhood each year due to gender discrimination. It discusses some of the root causes of gender discrimination, including dowry practices, socioeconomic factors, and a preference for sons over daughters. The document advocates for raising awareness of gender equality and the right to life and education for all people regardless of gender. It encourages serious thinking and changes in attitudes and practices to end discrimination against women and girls.

The decline in the sex ratio and the millions of Missing Women are indicators of the feudal patriarchal resurgence. Violence against women has gone public – whether it is dowry murders, the practice of female genital mutilation, honour killings, sex selective abortions or death sentences awarded to young lovers from different communities by caste councils, rapes and killings in communal and caste violence, it is only women’s and human rights groups who are protesting – the public and institutional response to these trends is very minimal. Most of the values are insufficiently imagined and fundamentally flawed.
More than two-thirds of the women’s populations don’t have access to the financial system. Poor women are not considered credit worthy. Every human being should have the “right to credit” because if people have money, they can change their lives. It is true for women. Nearly half the world’s population live in poverty, 70% are women.

According to one United Nations estimate, 113 to 200 million women are “demographically missing” from the world today. That is to say, there should be 113 to 200 million more women walking the earth, who aren’t. By that same estimate, 1.5 to 3 million women and girls lose their lives every year because of gender-based neglect or gender-based violence and Sexual Violence in Conflict.

Let us make the Shifthappen/Gender equality and status of women in India & Wo...
This document discusses gender equality and the status of women worldwide. While women have made progress in some areas, significant inequalities remain. Women earn on average three-fourths of what men earn for the same work. They also do 67% of the world's work but earn only 10% of the world's income. Domestic violence, rape, and female infanticide continue to plague many societies. For real change to occur, both men and women must work together towards equality within their homes and communities.
Change management
This document discusses the issues of female foeticide and gender discrimination in India. It provides alarming statistics showing that millions of girls are aborted or do not survive childhood each year due to gender discrimination. It discusses some of the root causes of gender discrimination, including dowry practices, socioeconomic factors, and a preference for sons over daughters. The document advocates for raising awareness of gender equality and the right to life and education for all people regardless of gender. It encourages serious thinking and changes in attitudes and practices to end discrimination against women and girls.
Women Empowerment
The document discusses the need for empowering women in India. It notes that while laws have changed, societal attitudes towards women still need to shift. Key issues that disempower women include gender discrimination, lack of education, female infanticide, dowry, child marriage, and violence against women. Currently, many women remain unutilized and underrepresented in India. Empowering women involves providing education, self-employment opportunities, basic needs, and changing societal mentalities about women's roles. Both men and women must work towards ending gender inequality and giving women equal opportunities.
Poverty As A Challenge
This document discusses poverty around the world through statistics and examples. It states that over 350-400 million people in India, which has nearly 1 billion inhabitants, live below the poverty line. It also notes that over 30,000 children die each day due to poverty. While some countries like Luxembourg and Norway have very high GDP per capita, the poorest 48 countries have a total GDP less than the wealth of the three richest individuals in the world. The document provides statistics on the number of people living on less than $1 or $2 per day as well as those without access to clean water, sanitation, or electricity.
Major problems in India
This document outlines several crucial issues facing India, including poverty, illiteracy, population growth, unemployment, corruption, inflation, violence against women, gender inequality, child labor, sanitation, and terrorism. It provides statistics on each issue and discusses how they impact India's development. For example, it notes that over 20% of Indians live below the poverty line and that India has the largest illiterate population in the world, despite government programs to increase literacy rates. It argues that the government needs strong policies and action to address these interlinked social, economic and political problems through measures like improving education, healthcare, employment opportunities, and security from terrorism.
Poverty
Poverty is defined as lacking basic needs like food, water, shelter, and clothing. It means having little to no money or resources. Poverty destroys people and leaves them without hope or will to live. Some key causes of poverty include lack of education, natural disasters, lack of opportunities, overpopulation, and spending money on addictions. Major effects are hunger, lack of healthcare, unsafe water, and limited education. Facts show that half of all children live in poverty, over 3 billion people live on less than $2.50 a day, and the majority of the world's hungry people live in just 7 countries. The document calls for action to address poverty before it is too late.
Povertyyyyyyy (1)
The document discusses poverty, defining it as not having enough money to meet basic needs. It notes that the Democratic Republic of Congo suffers most from poverty, with almost 80% of people living in poverty and 45,000 children dying each month due to starvation and illness. A few key organizations helping to fight poverty are mentioned, including Food for the Hungry and Feeding America, which provide food, medicine, education, and other resources. The document also discusses how poverty exists in Singapore and ways individuals can help, such as through food donation drives.
Poverty
Poverty remains a significant problem in India, with over 27.5% of the population living below the poverty line. Rural areas have significantly higher rates of poverty than urban areas. Several government programs have aimed to reduce poverty through job creation, rural development, education, healthcare, and direct assistance. However, poverty rates remain high due to issues such as corruption, slow economic growth, and lack of access to resources. Reducing poverty will require continued efforts across many sectors including education, employment, infrastructure, and social welfare.
Gender discrimination
The document discusses various issues of gender inequality faced by women worldwide, including female infanticide, lack of education for girls, honor killings, wage discrimination, and sexual violence against women in India. It notes that while nature does not discriminate between men and women, socially and culturally women have faced unequal treatment and lack of rights and opportunities. The document advocates for empowering women through education, economic independence, and self-confidence to achieve true equality and allow women to reach their full potential.
What is poverty
Poverty is defined as the lack of basic living conditions like adequate food, shelter, and clothing. It also means not being able to afford medical care when sick or send children to social events. Poverty stems from both a lack of income and a lack of opportunities for education, credit, and other means that could provide a decent living standard. Globally, at least 80% of people live on less than $10 per day, income differences are increasing, and 22,000 children die daily due to poverty-related causes like lack of access to healthcare. Many regions, particularly in Asia and Africa, also have millions living without basic amenities like electricity.

PPT ON SAVE GIRL CHILD.pptx
1) Over 250,000 girl children go missing in India every year due to factors like sex-selective abortion and female infanticide.
2) The document calls for empowering women and raising awareness that girls have equal rights and potential as boys if given opportunities in education, work, and freedom from discrimination.
3) For society to progress, girls must be treated with the same love, respect, and equality as boys, and issues like poverty, illiteracy, child labor, dowry system, and medical malpractices determining sex must be addressed.
gender and geography and gender roles issues
The document summarizes gender inequality across several categories including demography and health, family and social conditions, education, economic productivity, and politics. It provides statistics showing disparities between men and women globally in areas such as life expectancy, infant mortality, literacy rates, wages, and representation in government. For example, women on average live longer than men but also face greater health challenges. Nearly two-thirds of the world's illiterate population are women. Women perform a large percentage of the world's work but earn only 10% of income and own 1% of property.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
