PEACE NOBEL PRIZE 2014

PEACE NOBEL PRIZE 2014

"Kailash Satyarthi Malala Yousafzai"


Hello dear readers. Today, I am going to write about the peace noble prize in 2014. The nobel prize winners are Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzai. I choose the peace nobel prize because I think that is the most important prize of all the nobel prizes.




      Kailash Satyarthi                   Malala Yousafzai



But why have they won the peace nobel prize? What do they do?

The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2014 is to be awarded to Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzay for their struggle against the suppression of children and young people and for the right of all children to education. Because, children must go to school and not be financially exploited. In the poor countries of the world, 60% of the present population is under 25 years of age. It is a prerequisite for peaceful global development that the rights of children and young people be respected. In conflict-ridden areas in particular, the violation of children leads to the continuation of violence from generation to generation.


KAILASH SATYARTHI

Kailash Satyarthi is an Indian children's rightsadvocate and an activist against child labour.He founded the Bachpan Bachao Andolan (lit. Save the Childhood Movement) in 1980 and has acted to protect the rights of more than 83,000 children from 144 countries.

Originally named Kailash Sharma, Satyarthi was born on 11 January 1954 in the Vidisha district of central Indian state Madhya Pradesh. He attended Government Boys Higher Secondary School, and completed his degree in electrical engineering at Samrat Ashok Technological Institute, Vidisha and a post-graduate degree in high-voltage engineering. He then joined a college in Bhopal as a lecturer for a few years. He then joined a college in Bhopal as a lecturer for a few years

Today, the non-profit organization Bachpan Bachao Andolan he founded is leading the movement to eliminate child trafficking and child labour in India. The organisation has been working towards rescuing trafficked children for over 30 years. It receives information from a large network of volunteers.



MALALA YOUSAFZAI


Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani activist for female education and the youngest-ever Nobel Prize recipient. She is known mainly for human rights advocacy for education and for women in her native Swat Valley in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of northwest Pakistan, where the local Taliban had at times banned girls from attending school. Yousafzai's advocacy has since grown into an international movement.


Malala Yousafzai was born on July 12, 1997, in Mingora, Pakistan. As a child, she became an advocate for girls' education, which resulted in the Taliban issuing a death threat against her. On October 9, 2012, a gunman shot Malala when she was traveling home from school. She survived, and has continued to speak out on the importance of education. She was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in 2013. In  2014,  she was nominated again and won,
becoming the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.


I think, that they deserve the peace nobel prize because they are claiming the human rights.

25th NOVEMBER

ON THE 25th NOVEMBER

Hello dear readers. 
Yesterday, was the day of the international day in which we say no to violence against women.

Violence against women (abbreviated VAW) is, collectively, violent acts that are primarily or exclusively committed against women. Sometimes considered a hate crime, this type of violence targets a specific group with the victim's gender as a primary motive. This type of violence is gender-based, meaning that the acts of violence are committed against women expressly because they are women, or as a result of patriarchal gender constructs. (As we can see in wikipedia)

Now, I am going to talk about the date of violence against women.

Between 15 and 76 percent of women are targeted for physical and/or sexual violence in their lifetime, according to the available country data. Most of this violence takes place within intimate relationships, with many women (ranging from 9 to 70 percent) reporting their husbands or partners as the perpetrator. Across the 28 States of the European Union, a little over one in five women has experienced physical and/or sexual violence from a partner (European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights, 2014). 

Harmful Practices

  • Approximately 130 million girls and women in the world have experienced female genital mutilation/cutting, with more than 3 million girls in Africa annually at risk of the practice.
  • Over 60 million girls worldwide are child brides, married before the age of 18, primarily in South Asia (31.3 million) and sub-Saharan Africa (14.1 million). Violence and abuse characterize married life for many of these girls. Women who marry early are more likely to be beaten or threatened, and more likely to believe that a husband might sometimes be justified in beating his wife.

Information took from  UN WOMEN .

As we can see the statistics are horrible's and we have to do something to change this.

SOCIAL WEBSITES

                                                      Social websites



                          TUENTI / FACEBOOK / TWITTER / INSTAGRAM / WHATSAPP



Hello dear readers.

This is my second article and I am going to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the social websites.




To start with, I am going to talk about the advantages of the social websites. One advantage, can be that you can meet people from other countries and other cultures and with this you can make new friends. Also, you can play online in games like tuenti in frog street and catapult you can have fun online but with moderation, you can share photos, you can know what happens in the world...



As you can see, the social websites have a lot of advantages like you can meet people, you can see and share photos... But also, the social websites have a lot of disadvantages if wee don't use them properly. For example:

Anyone can use your information with bad intention. Also, people can create fake accounts, they can do you bulling, they can send private videos, anyone can hack your account and send messages and photos that you don't like.



Now, I am going to say my opinion, as you can see, also the social websites have a lot of problems if wee don't use properly. But what we have to do in this cases? This is a very important question that they don't answer. To avoid think like this, this programs have a lot of things that they can be useful like you can be private, you can report things that you don´t like...



So if you are going to enter in the world of the social websites, please, see the problems and solutions of the social websites.



Bye bye.

MY FAVORITE PLACE

Have you ever been to Cadiz?
I went on holidays some years ago, in 2010. I went with my family by airplane to Sevilla and then by car to Cadiz.
I staid one week. I went to the Palmar beach. I think that this beach is the best of Cadiz, but if you want a beach with little waves you go to the beach of Conil that is calmer. 


I visited a lot of towns but the best one was and is Conil. It has a very beautiful houses all with white colour. 
In the beach of Conil it was a beach bar, it was very beautiful.


Here is a description of Conil: 


  Conil de la Frontera is a town on the Atlantic coast in the southern part of Spain, with around 21,000 inhabitants.
It has six beaches: Playa La Fontanilla, Playa El Roqueo (with a 1936 Civil War bunker), Playa Fuente del Gallo, Playa Punta Lejos, Playa Cala del Aceite and Playa los Bateles. Playa los Bateles is the longest and the most popular in the summer. Conil de la Frontera is primarily a vacation town and the most of the tourists are Spanish although you often also hear German as well in town. (As we can read in wikipedia)






Here is a map of conil de la frontera.
