On October 2008, the Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) joint venture commissioned the Afam VI Power Plant worth $1.3 billion, which was expected to inject 650 Megawatts (Mw) of electricity into the national grid to augment power supply and distribution in Nigeria. This huge investment was supposed to ensure uninterrupted power supply in some parts of Nigeria. Ten years after its commissioning, no state in Nigeria can boast of uninterrupted power supply. It remains an illusion. #electricity #lightupafrica #nigeria #power #growth #development #industry #economy #nation #stability #milleniumdevelopmentgoals https://www.instagram.com/p/ByEnhJEnhYm/?igshid=qdabopgcz0sy

The Mariposa DR Foundation is inspired by these goals! Check this video out to see what these goals are! In honor of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, I encourage all of you to do something to help achieve these goals before the year is over. Good luck! 

To increase public awareness and galvanize support to the MDGs, an animation video has been produced. This public service announcement will serve as an ideal medium of information, inspiring people to mobilize.

Class Visit to the UN

By: Mariel Quintana

Why did you choose this course? What do you know about human rights? Do you know about the United Nation’s Millenium Development Goals and how it’s progress is being incorporated in the post-2015 development agenda?

These were questions commonly posed to our class throughout the day as we went from building to building to attend discussions about feminist advocacy in the UN. In total, we attended discussions with 4 organizations: UN Women, UN Non-Governmental Liason Service, Urban Justice Center, and Third World Network.

The in-depth conversations held among us were impressive. I was reminded of how, after much advocacy on multiple levels, women’s rights as human rights have finally become an issue taken seriously. Through class discussions and our class trip, we learned that on the forefront of women’s rights advancement are passionate individuals and hard-working grassroots organizations. Many activists’ motions are driven by the possibility to extend awareness of women’s issues by the passing of international documents agreed upon by the UN. While signed agreements such as the Programme of Action are useful to advance international dialogue, it is the work of the “little people” that make the work and decisions of employees of the UN reach closer to closing the gender inequality gap.

When I registered for Feminist Advocacy in the UN, I expected a chance to visit the UN as a tourist. I did not expect the opportunity to sit down and chat with women from various fields of the UN and from NGOs that have a stake in policy decisions relating to human rights around the world. After this recent trip, I feel more knowledgable about how gain access to the tools and resources needed for advocacy of human rights. I truly look forward to see what my education brings me as the Spring Semester unfolds!

The Girl Effect

Girls were left out of the original Millennium Development Goals. The Girl Declaration has been written to make sure that doesn't happen again.

The five goals and seven principles that can create a better future for girls and end poverty for the world.
