Unicef - 0 views

  •  
    Unicef, an international organization, will, in the long run, improve development. Unicef's priorities is to educate the young, save them from terrible diseases like Malaria, and to save them from war-torn, or resource lacking countries. Moreover, Unicef strives to put an end to gender inequality, and HIV/AIDS. Unicef operates in about 196 countries to improve those factors that can lead to development. Unicef is seen, for example, in Ishmael Beah's book, "A Long Way Gone" saving Sierra Leone children from being child soldiers for the rebels and army. Beah was saved by Unicef, when he was a child soldier. Unicef, by improving the factors above, could improve a country's GII, Child Mortality Rate, Life Expectancy, and It's Crude Death Rate, which could in return improve a country's HDI. This would be great because by improving a country's HDI, that country could start to transition to a developed country that improves socially, economically, and politically. This would change the world we live in today. Unicef is an organization that I would definitely help.

  •  
    3 main ideas of the article: -Ultimately, Northern Ireland is a very small place, with a lot of madness, and in this sense it is also very similar to Israel. -Peace in Northern Ireland is there, but it's an unsettled peace. -Protestants, many descendants of Scottish and English settlers, see themselves in the Israelis' position - staking a righteous, ancient claim to territory in defiance of a force they view as bloodthirsty insurgents, the Irish Republican Army. This article talks about how there is still some unsettled people in all of Ireland, regarding religion. Also, during the unsettled peace, there are some incidents between Protestants and Roman Catholics, that connects to the Palestine-Israel conflict today. Will there be another religious war in Ireland?
