World Water Week: Gender inequality and environmental challenges related to water resources and sanitation

UN Women provided recommendations with focus on addressing various aspects of gender inequality and environmental challenges related to water resources and sanitation. These recommendations include:

Enact Gender-Responsive Legal Frameworks and Institutions for Water Protection:

Implement strong legal frameworks recognizing water resources as entities with independent rights.

Incorporate the "rights of Nature" approach into law to promote harmony with the environment.

Ensure inclusive participation of women, Indigenous groups, and local leaders in natural resource management.

Reverse Unsustainable Consumption Patterns:

Shift consumption patterns, particularly among high consumers, to protect the environment.

Use education, public awareness, policy changes, and global collaboration to promote equitable livelihoods.

Prioritize Women in Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation:

Include women and vulnerable populations in climate change action plans.

Create gender-responsive activities to address water-related disasters.

Enhance women's capacity for disaster risk reduction.

Address Gender Inequality for Safe Water Access:

Ensure equitable access to safe drinking water and sanitation services.

Reduce the water-collecting burden on women and girls.

Improve access for underserved and marginalized groups.

Promote Women's Participation in Water Governance:

Encourage women's leadership roles in water governance for better management and accessibility.

Prioritize gender-sensitive water infrastructure.

Implement measures like quotas to address gender disparities in leadership.

Include Marginalized Women Activists in Decision-Making:

Integrate perspectives of women activists, especially from marginalized communities, in policies and programs.

Collaborate with citizens, local leaders, and youth for sustainable solutions.

Prioritize Safe Water and Sanitation in Communities:

Ensure safe drinking water, hygiene facilities, and sanitation services in schools and health centers.

Support adolescent girls' needs and maternal health.

Strengthen Partnerships and Funding:

Collaborate across countries and provide financial support to address the water crisis.

Foster cooperation and ecosystem protection.

Invest in Gender-Disaggregated Water Data:

Collect gender-disaggregated data to inform water and sanitation policies.

Monitor progress, reach, and effectiveness of programs, considering marginalized groups.

These recommendations highlight the importance of recognizing water resources as essential and interconnected elements of our ecosystems, and the critical role that gender equality plays in achieving sustainable water management and accessibility.

Sneak Peak + ART! Noelle

"That sleepless nigths always played whit his mind, despite the insonorized rooms, he could swear he heard loud steps from the corner, they were getting close, fuck

But as they got close, they started to become more soft, less loud. The person walked like they were going thru glass

Two sheepish knocks got into his ears. Sounded almost like a whisper

It was 3 am, who the fuck would-

He opened and the girl in front looked like her heart skipped a beat. After a surprised and sligthly scared gasp, her eyes went straigth foward to the floor, as if ghe floor was the most interesting thing to see, or hus gaze was the most terryfying in the world

-Sorry, Im really sorry, I- I didn't mean to bother you - The words were falling from her like it her mouth was covered in soap - I'd normally call Nemona or Cle- Her eyes started to go to a thousand different places in the room, untill cleverness came back to her whit a name to fill the void- Arven! When this happens

His hearts also skipped a beat, from all people, she didnt expect Noelle, despite if somebody is more acurate to go across the boys hall at 3 am carefreely, it is her

Something in her hair down in a tie instead of the ultradecorated bun she used to wear, the ultra confort tank tank top instead of the summer uniform he was used to see, and the loose strands that normally were controlled by a a decorated hair tie, made him take a deep breath

She looked tired, she was, actually, the eyebags and the cadence of her voice speaked by themselves. She always went to beed early, even more early than him, why was she like that?

-What is it- The vulneravility in everything of her made him break a wall, he'll definitely punish himself later. They didnt speak to each other since the Terapagos incident

The reaction surprised her, she expected his bitternes

-I'ts so stupid i just, I just cant sleep"

One thing that is really interest for me is how diferent Georgia children are, or better said how different her children react to the way she raise them.

Georgia lessons are: vulneravility is a weaknes, sting first, the rules dont aplly for us, is us agains the world, wich implied that their must important relationship had to be the one they had with their mother.

But for ginny this lesson are not true, she cant get away with half the things her mother do, she learn, i guess since really early age that the world is more hostile for her, she cannot smile her way out of things, she cannot take her mother words as absolute true, she need external allies.

But if we talk about Austin... He is a boy, a white cute boy, who is gonna grow to an adult handsome rich white man, he could get away with things her mother could only dream, the rules dont aply to him, and AND his must important relationship is her mother.

Everytime Georgia said " i would do anything for you" ginny is horrofied, she hate that, she hate the extreme her mother loves take. But Austin responde is contundent "he would do anything for his mother too".

Don't you have sometimes the feel that Carmilla from Castlevania and Demeter from Lore Olympus are a BIT ALIKE? In the "I hate men" sense

Truth be told, they do are kind of alike in that part. I can't recall much from Carmilla, truth be told, but I remember among other things, she was pretty hembrist. Demeter is on that line as well, as you say.

Also:

They live on a "men's world" and they feel like they are their enemies.

Very little good examples of trust-worthy males on their lifes, so they only ever are allowed if they are in control of how that male is on their life.

They surround themselves of female trusted ones. Though, Carmilla has some sort of sisterhood while Demeter is more like a boss on her bussiness.

They are both pretty controling and manipulating, which shows they do not allow any vulneravility to appear even to those who are supposed to be their circle of trust. Which is kind of normal when you are the leader or boss, but still you need someone who has your back.

PRIDE. Lots of it. Again, not a bad thing to be proud of their acomplishments, but they did handle it bad when they are angered and want things to go their way, which usually results on bad stuff. On this one, they apply it on different ways.

On the other hand, Demeter has done very questionable things on personal relationships, but other than that she is pretty comendable and more of a badass.

I mean, she did build a great bussiness of her own, and her work on the Mortal Realm is crucial for the life in it.

Meanwhile, Carmilla was more of a conqueror, but more in a Sauron way.

Ppl who know me irl are so lucky i'm terrified of vulneravility cuz i would be posting sh pics on my Instagram stories otherwise. They should thank me for my self disipline i have saved them from listening to me talk about death and cannibalism so many times. Anyways

[protect-namine]

xie lian: guoshi, if I must, I'll choose the third path and give the people two cups of water even if I only have one

also xie lian: (kills thousands of mortal soldiers that leads to a pandemic and the fall of the kingdom of xianle)

wei wuxian: lan qiren, the procedure for liberating/suppressing/exterminating fierce ghosts is too wasteful! what if I invented a fourth path where we can harness resentful energy and not just spiritual energy?

also wei wuxian: (makes an enemy of the entire cultivation world and brutally dies)

shen yuan: LOL well I for one am gonna listen to my dear system. if system says there is only one path and it's unavoidable (endless abyss) then, if I must, I will listen to them and throw my disciple to literal hell (because I'm being held at gunpoint, someone pls help me)

also shen yuan: (gets poisoned for life, gets kidnapped multiple times, dies twice for his disciple) well! uh!! I can't find a third path but I can find ways to die three times if that's what it takes ahahahhaha

Fears

It was like a punch to the stomach. It froze me. Not the fact that I hurt you on its own. That was bad enough, but I know you understand and I know I can try to be better instead of torturing myself over it. I felt bad for it, terribly so. But the hardest blow was to open my eyes to the fact that this is a serious thing. If I had the smallest doubt then it’s gone now.

Oh, how I longed for this when I thought it wasn’t possible. How I dreamed of the things I now find myself experiencing in my routine. It was almost ethereal, and I dived into it like floating on a cloud. Drugged with the intensity of it. Enamoured with these feelings I could not yet place, my mind dispersed into the mist of happiness.

But then it hit me. It was the way I felt for causing you pain because of my poor ways of dealing with my lack of capacity to open up and let you see me vulnerable. 

It’s redundant to mention that everyone I ever went out with was either pretty dumb, immature or simply very toxic. I have felt captivated enough to feel a certain little jog towards opening up, and eventually I do. But it’s something not only extremely hard. It also makes me feel vulnerable at a really uncomfortable level. And I’ve always had to mask that somehow. To the point of not being entirely myself when being around them. It’s exhausting, to keep it up. But it’s even more exhausting to panic from the overwhelming fear vulneravility provokes me.

It’s so excrutiatingly hard to talk about my feelings my eyes are getting teary right now.

The thing is, you are a first on more than one matter. There are so many things that might come natural to you, but I get choked up thinking “this is what it feels like. I was so wrong and they were so terrible. How have I lived my entire life convincing myself THAT was the way things worked?” I was late to the party. I’m embarrasingly new to this. To the way I feel when I'm around you, and to the things that are so different. For the first time in my life, I don’t feel that constricting hand around my neck keeping the air out of my lungs when I let a tiny little bit of my walls down. They don’t shake with the promise of a devastating earthquake that will tear them apart, and myself with them. There’s only a blinding light. And it’s uncomfortable, sure. It burns at first, and makes my eyes hurt. But once they adjust, I’m sure the view will be mesmerizing.

But my walls are thick and heavy, and the monster whispering in my ear is relentless. I can be terribly sensitive and discerning, depending on the subject. And I am learning to separate my own perception of myself from reality. But the monster is loud and looking outside of my own head was always tricky. In all earnestness, there was never someone in my life who could convince me otherwise, because their attitude towards me only confirmed my own thoughts. Noone could ever prove me wrong, so I grew up thinking I deserved what I’ve got. Noone made me feel like I could want more. Almost like I wasn’t allowed, and the reason behind it is somehow blurred in my memories, but it’s there somewhere. In the way I was raised, or the way my disorders were overlooked.

I’ve been slowly becoming my own person for a while now, and that’s reassuring. I don’t sweat over it as much, others’ misconceptions of me. I have learned to love myself, and to take care of myself. At least a little bit more lately. I have learned plenty and I care enough about myself to understand I do deserve whatever the fuck I want, if I let myself have it.

What I haven’t learned yet is how to accept this much care without feeling like breaking. I’m not used to it and it’s so fucking weird. It makes me feel happy, and sad for only realizing so late about the amount of psychological abuse I was under. It makes me feel scared because the monsters are sure it’s going to end eventually and to think about it feels so wrong that it literally makes me nauseous. They tell me what a dumb fuck up I am, just the way so many allegedly significant people made me feel like my entire life. They’ve ingrained it into my brain and it has so deeply rooted, now it’s fucking hard to remove. It’s also tough to talk about this without feeling like an emo teenager, but that’s only more of the same and I want to get this out anyways so be kind, cuz I’m shaking with anxiety already.

Vulnerability was one of my worst fears. And I’m not saying it’s not anymore. It might still frighten me to no end, but I’m starting to think it might not be that bad. It might take me a while, and for your patience so far I am incredibly grateful. It’s another first to feel this safe, this comforted. Fuck, noone has ever gotten quite this successfully to make me feel this much containment before, and I’m silently over the place all the time. Only these times I’m over the place for entirely different reasons. Because this time around, I do want to be vulnerable. I want you to know because I know you will understand. I want to seek for that comfort instead of hiding behind the walls. I’m scared of you seeing me at my worst, but I don’t want to be alone during my worst anymore. I want you to know me and still stick around.

I get that you got into this with your eyes wide open. But it might take some time. And I’m making the concious effort to believe you over the monsters because you deserve that much. I deserve that much. And the whispers can go fuck themselves because this is the more real I’ve felt in an unmeasurable amount of time.

So please, please be patient with me, for I’m slow but steady. Know that I care immensely. I’ll help you peek through the walls until I’m brave enough to go through my fears and bring them down. But brace yourself cuz I’m gonna let you in, and then I won’t be able to let go, and we’re gonna continue being late for work

Читаю сейчас “Великие Дерзания” Брене Браун. Ключевое понятие её исследования - уязвимость (vulnerability). Давным-давно я видела пару выступлений Брене на TED-Talks, уже не очень хорошо помню их содержание, но не забыла, какое сильное впечатление они произвели на меня тогда. “А это многое объясняет”, подумала я. Но, почему-то, не стала изучать эту тему глубже.

Потом я пошла на терапию, и откопала в себе две часто повторяющиеся эмоции: во-первых, ощущение “я плохая”, которое с завидной регулярностью вызывало во мне приступы тревоги; во-вторых, страх быть слабой, из-за которого любое взаимодействие с внешним миром представлялось так, будто я собираюсь подставиться под удар, которого просто не смогу вынести. Стыд и боязнь быть уязвимой.

Со стыдом, вроде, стало получше - оказалось, что принятие себя весьма весомый и эффективный контр-аргумент. А вот с уязвимостью... У меня как будто vulneravility indigestion - я всё пытаюсь избавиться от этого состояния как от чего-то чужеродного, но факт в том, что уязвимость всегда была, есть и будет частью моего опыта. И это то общее, что объединяет всё человечество. Мы ведь вообще мало в чём можем быть действительно уверены: продолжительность собственного существования определяется не нами, а тем предустановленным запасом здоровья или и вовсе случаем; мы влюбляемся и хотим провести с человеком всю жизнь, но сколько всего может пойти не так: один из вас передумал, оказался каким-то не таким, изменился, предал - умер, в конце концов. 

Уязвимость - это осознание того, что нечто может пойти не так в любой момент, и Вы ничего не сможете с этим поделать. В книге  Брене определяет уязвимость как непределённость, риск и эмоциональную открытость. Любовь требует от нас всего этого. И, пожалуй, именно из-за страха оставаться открытой перед Л., когда всё стало сложно и неопределённо, я и приняла решение о разрыве с ним. Мне невыносима была мысль о том, что я теперь в уязвимом положении - ведь �� любой момент он может снова бросить меня, чтобы быть с той, другой девушкой. И я не захотела ждать этого момента, а надеяться на лучшее, будем откровенны, я никогда не умела.

Наоборот, я как правило беру на вообружение худший вариант развития событий, готовлюсь к нему, полагая, что если всё разрешится более благоприятным для меня образом, я просто порадуюсь, как всё замечательно сложилось, а если всё будет плохо, то, так как я подготовлена, мне будет не (так) больно. Да нет же! Моя стратегия - просто сразу выбирать боль, потому что я не могу всерьёз представить, что со мной может случиться что-то хорошее, что кто-то выберет меня, а не такого идеального-и-самодостаточного-к-тому-же-уверенного в себе (на вид) другого. Это что-то иррациональное, глубинное. Можно вроде как полюбить себя - хоть и плохонькую, но родную, единственную, и в то же время продолжить в глубине души считать, что никто больше не согласится на такую вот ущербную тебя, когда у него есть хоть даже самый скромный выбор. Не значит ли это, что я и сама бы себя не выбрала? Так есть ли внутри меня любовь к себе? Или только смирение с неизбежным?

Вся эта ситуация стала для меня этаким цунами стыда - всё, что я с таким трудом строила, оно в мгновение ока разрушило. Ведь мне изменили - значит, со мной что-то не так? Я недостаточно красива и привлекательна, я была плохой партнёршей и не хотела видеть, к чему всё идёт, я требовала много и ничего не давала взамен? И добивает ужас от осознания собственной уязвимости в сложившейся  ситуации - мне же теперь надо каким-то образом cope with it, простить Л. за то, что он сделал с нами. Внутренний ребёнок при этом всём топает ногой и возмущённо восклицает: “А почему мне теперь всё это разгребать?! Я же никого не предавала, в отличие от некоторых!”. Только вот этот мой комплекс неполноценности не имеет под собой оснований, я знаю. Знаю, да - но всё равно не чувствую себя от этого во всех смыслах достаточной и good enough.

Здесь и сейчас меня поддерживают и помогают справляться с очередным пиздецом только слова Брене Браун, потому что они попадают прямо в цель и разбирают этот внутренний шторм на компоненты. Стыду нужно противостоять (и Брене делится механизмами борьбы), а уязвимость следует научиться мужественно принимать. Я ведь действительно сильная и отважная, раз решилась попробовать снова полюбить человека, который ошибся и причинил мне боль. Нет, Стыд - не безмозглая идиотка, шагающая по граблям, а мудрая, сопереживающая и искренняя женщина.

Ну, я надеюсь.

I was thinking "Poké-Metroids" would fit well with the Bug type since the Alpha and Gamma stages look spider-like, and then gaining the Dragon type due to the reptilian traits of Zetas and Omegas, but then we have the Ice weakness to worry about. According to Bulbapedia, Bug gets neutral damage from Ice (which I find odd), and they supposedly lose their vulneravility to cold once they're past the larval stage.

This is true, yes.

“Uhm? I think I can fair on my own pretty well. Thanks.” She has a certain dislike for showing vulneravility, even if his request is pretty sweet seeing she had fell.

“I wasn’t sure if you twisted your ankle on the way down, that seemed like a pretty bad fall,” Tamaki said, voice light and cheerful though there was concern in a furrowed brow. He held out his hand as an offer to help in any case. “I really don’t mind if something is wrong. The nurse’s office isn’t too far.”
