The Importance of Environmental Awareness In Children.

1. Children?s health and environment needs to enter the mainstream educational program for healthcare professionals. A general consensus from within the field is that increased time and attention must be given to children?s health and environment in medical educational programs for doctors, nurses and other health professionals. The current situation, largely comprised of voluntary enrollment into training programs for the existing professional core, is not sufficient to equip healthcare professionals with children from environmental harm. 2. Systems for healthcare delivery in each country vary. In the United States, children regularly visit pediatricians while, in Canada, many children are attended to by family physicians and tend to visit pediatricians upon referral, except in large urban areas where they are more likely to be served by pediatricians. In Mexico, children are often seen in primary health care centers. For purposes of reviewing actions, making recommendations and targeting initiatives, these differences in healthcare delivery are important to keep in mind. 3. Significant funding is required to support education and post-graduate training. While money is not the only key to success, the effort needs funding or it cannot happen. National level investment supporting education and research on the environmental influences of pediatric health are pivotal to the continuation of pediatric health and environment as a specialty field. 4. Education on children?s health and environment requires champions. When funding was provided to several universities in the United States by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, there was sustained progress only in those institutions where a champion for health and the environment led the effort. In cases where the champion moved on, other priorities tended to take over and the field of health and environment faded from the curriculum. 5. Education and training requires a long-term perspective. Continued communication, updates and information are key to eventual general acceptance and awareness of children?s health and the environment. A single pre-medical class or a continuing education training event is not sufficient to give professionals the confidence with which to carry forward a focus on children?s health and the environment. New education and training initiatives must include multiple year funding and commitment to continued support over the long term.

Capacity Building on Entrepreneurship & Business Training of Grassroots Women & Youth

Youth Entrepreneurship & Career Guidance (YECG)/CCID 2010/2011 lumni is an organization that proposes to undertake a project of ?Capacity Building on Entrepreneurship & Business Training of Grassroots Women & Youth?. The purpose of this proposal is to seek funding of the project. YECG has observed the continued failure of small scale enterprises in their initial startup stages especially those run by Women and Youth. YECG aims at addressing the escalating impact of poverty, violence against women, diseases, crimes and drug abuse by youths. The YECG team is of view that there is a correlation between poverty and violence and crime and drugs abuse and diseases and desire to combat the five evils. This proposal is our response towards empowering women and youth as a way of fostering a future of smart entrepreneurs. It is hoped that ?increasing the proportion of women and youth who understand, share knowledge and can apply the learned skills is the best way of securing their economic well-being?. The project will take place within three regions of Rift Valley, Kenya South, Central and North. These areas will constitute the geographical scope of our operations in the five (5) counties of Kericho, Nakuru, Bomet, Narok and Nandi. Kericho County is the first and within South Rift region shall be used for pre-testing the training tools. The county shares a lot in common with other four and will be a beneficiary in the post funding project replication. The project will undertake its activities for a period of one year which is set to commence by August 1st 2014 and to terminate by July 30th 2015 The YECG team will comprise of 11 professional and competent members who will make sure that the project is aligned to achieve its goals and objectives within the timeframe and budget. Teamwork and accountability will be the driving force for the project team so that the project will maintain a high standard quality of provision of its services, effective use of the resources and achievement of outcomes that promote sustainability of entrepreneurship. The project team will ensure that the goals and objectives of this initiative are achieved through monitoring and evaluation of the activities, financial resources, strategies, risks, impacts and outcomes. Thus a work plan or implementation plan and a monitoring plan have been developed for this purpose. The risks involved will either be avoided, mitigated or their impacts minimized. The budget of the project will require a total of $25,000.00. This budget factors in the cost of holding workshops for capacity building in the 5 counties, transportation and accommodation of the project team, venue arrangements, evaluation process, project documentation requirements, supplies for the workshop, development of training materials and communication. Several measures will be undertaken to ensure that the project is sustainable in those 5 counties even after the project period comes to termination. This will be done by developing a group of peer trainers for each county who will continue the vision under the patronage of the county Development officers and our Region member supervision

The MEP simulates sessions held in the European Parliament in Brussels and Strasbourg. Participation in one of these sessions gives students an insight into the work of the European Parliament and other institutions. It also helps bring about a sense of European identity and citizenship. The working language during this two-day long session is English. Over 30 two-men delegations of the European Union member countries and delegations of the Observer countries meet to discuss topical political issues, which they have researched prior to the conference. They are debated at the General Assembly of the MEP.
