Eradication of Poverty

     The United Nations Month is celebrated to commemorate our unity with other nation. This celebration is also to honor the interstate organization promoting human rights, social progress, and world peace. 

     This year is the 70th Anniversary of the Proclamation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.  The fundamental connection between extreme poverty and human rights is important to us. The people living in poverty are disproportionately affected by many human rights violations. The theme is "Coming together with those furthest behind to build an inclusive world of universal rights and dignity." It underscores the importance of reaching out to people living in poverty and building an alliance around their priorities with citizens from all backgrounds to end extreme poverty. It recognizes the important mutual roles and relationships we have with each other based on our common and equal dignity.

  

     The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty can strongly complement such initiatives. This aims to ensure that the active participation of people living in extreme poverty and those furthest behind is a driving force in all efforts made to overcome poverty, including in the design and implementation of programmes and policies which affect them. Only by creating and nurturing a genuine partnership with people living with poverty will it be possible to build an inclusive world where all people can enjoy their full human rights and lead lives with dignity.

Resiliency of Filipinos

     

     Philippines is one of the countries that are prone to different disasters. Filipinos have to adapt themselves and recover from disasters and hazards. Filipinos are capable of organizing themselves to learn from past disasters and reduce the risks to future ones.

     To reduce the impacts of disasters, Filipinos should improve the resilience of the Philippines. Enhanced resilience allows better plans to reduce the effects and losses. Filipinos are know for their resiliency since Philippines is hit by more than 20 typhoons annually. Philippines is aware of the risks and understand its vulnerabilities. They learned from the past, they adapt to maker the changes to withstand the disasters to come.

     Filipinos can overcome and recover from disasters. Filipinos learn from past disasters to strengthen future response and recovery efforts. Filipinos should actively participate more for any disaster risk reduction plans to attain better security because not only properties will be destroyed but also lives if people will neglect disaster preparedness.

REFLECTION

     In the First Quarter of our ICT, I have learned many things. 

     I have learned in the Quarter on how internet begins and originated, how the web browsers work, and the uses and advantages of blogging.

     I have encountered problems and challenges. Making of essays for the blog is hard for me in the case that writing is not my forte.

   With the help of the internet, I can surf the wed to gather informations about the given topic which making blog becomes easier. Our teacher and my classmates also guided me to address the problems I encountered.

     Moving on, I will use my knowledge and learnings abou our lessons in the First Quarter in my life. I will share it to others so that their knowledge will be added.
