Burundi is a small country with an extremely fast growing population but a decreasing economy.More than 80% of the population is leaving from agricultural activities but we are still using the same agricultural tools and techniques as the ones used 50 years ago. The current political crisis which has turned into an economic crisis has contributed to a decrease in imported food such as rice and flour from Tanzania.Regardless of these indicators, the Burundian population keeps on growing. The average number of children per Burundian household is 7. Preventive actions have been taken for birth control but results are yet to be observed. These actions have a limited impact mostly in the cities but not in rural areas where the birth rate is the highest.Another factor to take into consideration is the culture. Every Burundian family owns a land and the tradition is that each male born in the family is given a piece of this land. The increasing number of birth makes it very difficult for all males of a family to inherit of a piece of land. When the family manage to provide, the land is too small to be used as both a plot to build a house and an agricultural field.So according to me, three major factors can explain the food insecurity in Burundi: the high birth rate leading to more people to feed, the archaic agricultural technics and tools, and the limited space for agricultural activities.
Food insecurity is not having access to sufficient, safe, nutritious foods in order to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. People who suffer from food insecurity often live in poverty or just above the poverty line. If you are living paycheck to paycheck and an emergency happens that week you might not have enough funds to provide breakfast for your family since rent ranks higher on the list. 1 in 8 americans suffer from food insecurity and don’t know how they are going to feed their families or themselves some weeks. About 14 percent of the food insecure are children and this can have damaging effects on their growth and health as well as ability to learn.
Yes and no. The most marginal of people may not be willing (or able) to access food, whatever policy is in place. This is because of acute personal problems (normally substance abuse resulting in various kinds of dysfunction) or because they are de facto prisoners, at least of circumstance. This is a subject that is not politically correct to talk about. It applies both to those held by their immediate family in illegal conditions for various reasons, and to victims of kidnapping or international trafficking of slaves (of two types - sex and labor). Unless some disaster forces these matters into the light of pubic awareness (such as a fire in which girls chained to beds have their bones discovered), this is something that is generally not talked about.There is a bigger problem. If one provides unlimited access to food, one is going to get more people to feed. Twenty years after Seattle-King County decided to “end homelessness” there were significantly MORE homeless people than before they spent fortunes on the project. A person aware of the basic facts of human behavior should have been able to tell them that up front. But, apparently, there are not very many people willing to say what the politically correct do not want to hear.
Is there anyway I can get rid of insecurity in my relationship?
2 Steps. 1: Get some self confidence= Do what ever you need to do to feel better about yourself. This may mean losing weight, getting an education, doing volunteer work, Finding religion, joining the peacecorps. What ever it you need to do, just do it to get some dignity and self respect. 2: Stop dating cheater or potential cheaters= ITs not easier said than done. Listen to your intuition and stop picking the bottom of the barrel to fill relationship voids. If a man makes it like you are koo koo for coco puffs because you tel him you feel he's acting of character and you would like to know what he's up to, then its a good idea to consider throwing in the towel.
How do i get over insecurity in myself?
You have to stop and look at yourself in the mirror. Think about what you have. You have a husband and three beautiful little girls. Obviously you have something. I used to be that way. I would look at other women and compare myself to them but then I figured out that most of the women on TV are fake in one manner or another. I am 5'7" and slim. I wear glasses and I am not a large breasted woman. It took me a long time to figure out this is the way I was made and if I was supposed to be different then I would have been made that way. I have a good looking husband that gets a lot of looks from other women but he chose me and that is what I have to be happy with. You have to learn to respect yourself. If you are feeling insecure about something sit and talk to someone about it. It never hurts to talk about your feelings. You may want to treat yourself to something that makes you feel good about yourself. A haircut, nails done, go buy a new outfit or something. You just have to love yourself and the way that you were made. I hope this helps you a little. Good Luck My friend
When presented such a (real, tragic and normally intolerable) problem, look first to yourself, followed by those who hold you dear followed by those you can attract.Note nowhere in the above did the word “government” appear.If you see a tragic case of hunger — address it personally.If you see too many/much to address personally — talk to your friends and family and pool resources as voluntarily contributed.If you still see too many/much — use whatever means to attract more to voluntarily support your cause.Please be prepared to “enable people to fish” rather than simply feeding them.Ultimately, be prepared to accept that you just can’t “fix” anyone.Best wishes.
Is it insecurity or low self confidence?
Today I saw a beautiful woman in the mall. I was crazy to know about her? But i felt a weird feeling i feel since she is a woman with a curvy beautiful face that she is too much for me and that since im a man and men dont have the right to choose a woman he is attractive too he has to be lucky. I feel since woman have a sexier body than men and have what we want that she may look at me and feel that im not her type since she has what i like in her. is this low self confidence should i need therapy? for y problem?
