Andrews [41]2 years ago
3 0

In the period after the Civil War to the turn of the century, Americans were able to spend money on entertainment as a results of <u>rising standards</u><u> of living owning to </u><u>industrialization</u><u>. </u>

After the Civil War, America entered into a period of prosperity where industrialization grew at a massive pace.

This led to:

  • An increase in the population of urban areas

Speech about educated women empower the<br> nation ​
Bas_tet [7]
Let me say that too often adolescent girls face intersecting disadvantages because of their age, gender, ethnic background, sexual identity, religion affiliation, income, disability among other compounded factors. We have seen pictures, evoked images of girls in different situations that live with disadvantage, even without crisis. The perception and reality of vulnerability arising out of these multiple intersectionalities really creates that context of discrimination and differentiated impact of crisis.

During conflict or humanitarian situations, natural disasters or climate change, these factors exacerbate and disproportionately and differentially affect young women and girls due to neglect of their human rights and the intersecting forms gender-inequality and discrimination that they endure. So this is how we shine the light on this particular situation of girls in emergencies. As was mentioned, it is often forgotten that women and girls are not only helpless victims, they are sources of power, power to cope, power to prevent, power to reduce risk, power for resilience and transformation and to build back better after crisis. That is the power that we want to invoke and tap into.

We must be outraged about the disadvantages that girls still experience. But here has been some progress. Humanitarian actors and governments are much more aware today about addressing crises and resilience building with a gender lens and with a girls lens. But, we still have miles to go.

Imagine that to date, women and children account for more than 75 per cent of the refugees and displaced persons at risk from war, famine, persecution and natural disasters.
Every 10 minutes, somewhere in the world, an adolescent girl dies because of violence.
Up to one-third of adolescent girls report their first sexual experience as being forced and they are victims of sexual violence. Currently at least 133 million girls and women have experienced female genital mutilation.

Describe two aspects of indian society that began in mauryan times and have lasted until the present day
ludmilkaskok [199]
<span>The Mauryan Empire was the first to unite the whole Indian subcontinent and although it didn't last more than 100 years, it did leave a significant legacy in southern Asia. The biggest impact that the empire had was the spread of Buddhism. The final king of the Mauryan Empire was the first Buddhist king, and the first to send Buddhist missionaries throughout southern Asia. Although Indian society is now mostly Hindu, the popularity of Buddhism in other parts of southern Asia is largely the result of the the Mauryan's effort to spread the word of the Dharma. Due to the fact that the Mauryan was the first empire to conquer all of the Indian subcontinent, it was the beginning of the collective history of the people of that region and it may have something to do with the formation of the country of India.</span>
