Eliminating Hunger: School Feeding in Bolivia

 In the country of Bolivia ", 615,000 boys and girls under 13 go to bed hungry every night," according to the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP). Providing school meals can change the lives of these children. In the following interview with Vitoria Ginja World Food Programme, we will examine the state of school feeding in children Bolivia.How many benefits of school feeding programs of the WFP country? Some 180,000 children benefit from WFP school feeding programs in Bolivia.Discuss what effect the meals have on children in terms of attendance, performance, and children nutrition.Many walk at least a mile to go at school, and receive a full hot breakfast before starting classes reduces their short-term hunger and help them benefit more from the lesson, the rate having the best quality and performance. Nutrition, school feeding is a supplement that children receive at home and so they get what they need to stay healthy. School feeding is a very good vehicle to add micronutrients in the diets of children who otherwise would not consumed.What plans are there for making school meals available for all children? The Government of Bolivia will soon adopt a law school feeding will make the provision of compulsory and universal school feeding in all public schools, beginning with the municipalities most affected by food insecurity. The law will make resources available to governments for the purpose of the department and municipalities. The law stipulates that school feeding should be delivered twice a day (breakfast and lunch) in rural areas, promoting local food consumption and thus help to food sovereignty of the sources would country.What financing an expansion of school feeding program? What was the impact of high food prices on this funding effort? Hydrocarbons Tax, municipal and departmental budgets will be the source of funding for the expansion of school feeding programs in Bolivia. The high prices of foodstuffs had large effects on the programs of WFP's school feeding. For example, rice, vegetable oil and wheat flour have increased by over 120% on average. For this reason, wheat flour has almost disappeared from the market to create artificial shortages that directly affect our operations because we had to distribute food rations to school without wheat flour. In addition, we worry if the price increase continues we will not be able to help feed the same number of children with the same amount of budget money.How can someone help feeding program school? Any foundation or an individual can contribute to school feeding program by donating 25 cents per day per child through the World Food Programme in Bolivia. The 25 cents covers breakfast and lunch. To contribute to the school feeding program in Bolivia, you can donate through the Friends of World Food Programme or contact us to make a donation directly to our office.Anything thing you would like to add about why you think that school feeding is important for people to support children? are the present and the future of any country. Investing in school feeding is the safest investment because you will most statements about it. A strong and healthy child can learn and play better than a sick and weak and turn in the near future, a promise to his family and his country.

Caves Found on Mars: best hope for finding extraterrestrial life on the planet

 The search for extraterrestrial life by scientists and amateurs is pretty exciting. The news reports today on a number of caves found on Mars will not only benefit scientists and amateurs but many people not normally involved in the search for life on other details planets.New returned by a satellite in orbit around Mars show what looks like caves on the planet surface. Images in seven places near the equator of Mars can be seen. Scientists studying the pictures think it may be possible that these spots are actually underground cave entrances. The Mars Odyssey orbiting the planet by satellite took images of the Martian surface. The spacecraft used a special technology called Thermal Emission Imaging System, or THEMIS images short.Scientists study named the newly discovered caves after the family, calling Abbey, Annie, Chloe, Dena, Jeanne Nikki and Wendy. In short, they were called the seven sisters. The caves are located near a volcano called Arisa Mons.Each great cave is about the size of a football field. The opening smaller cave is 330 feet wide and the largest is 820 feet wide. The cave is named Dena to about 430 feet underground.The first researcher to notice the caves in the images, Glenn Cushing of Northern Arizona University said, "Caves on Mars could become habitats for future explorers or may be the only structures that preserve evidence of past or present microbial life. "The thirst for discovery of past or present life on Mars has led to many projects in March. A current project focuses on THEMIS. The project objective is to improve THEMIS 'infrared and visual techniques. "The same project is also working on developing special robots that could be used to explore areas such as testing for this project caves.All had to be done here on Earth. In an attempt to better simulate conditions on Mars Scientists have worked in a number of places. The project is called "Earth-Mars Cave Detection Program. For the first part of the project scientists have developed their technology and infrared thermal imagine using a special detector that was flown over the caves in New Mexico and Arizona. The second part of the project will test in what researchers call "analog sites in March. These sites are particularly thought to represent at best a Martian environment. places on Earth that will be used include the Mojave, California and the Atacama desert of Chile and freezing environments of Antarctica and Iceland.The caves recently discovered on Mars are extremely important in the search for extraterrestrial life. They may be one of the best places to find evidence of life on Mars. During the recent Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, Glenn Cushing and his colleagues said: "We propose that the seven black spots are skylights in the area where the surface may have collapsed into a chamber below. Retain proof of past life on Mars could be found in caves, and this discovery would be of unprecedented importance "Sourceshttp:. / / News.yahoo.com/s/space/20070402/sc_space/possiblenewmarscavestargetsinsearchforlifehttp: / / www.swnebr.net/newspaper/cgi-bin/articles/ 160084http articlearchiver.pl: / / www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007 / 04/070402153116.htm
