Appropriate: The program is appropriate as it recognises the needs of Cambodian communities as many people in that reigion dont have enough food, and they rely on growing crops as a means of food and income and thats what the program works around]]> 2016-08-17 03:03:42 UTC https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118522423 michyoun https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118522434 Through the water wells programs, those living Cambodia no longer have to search and drink dirty water, therefore decreasing their risk of developing waterborne diseases, positively impacting their physical health. As the water wells program provides fresh water, it decreases risk of developing illness or diseases, therefore can decrease morbidity rates and potentially increasing life expectancy rates, positively impacting the health dimension of human development. If less people are falling ill due to waterborne diseases, they are more likely to attend work and earn an income, therefore creating economic growth for future generations, positively impacting economic sustainability. Furthermore, if more people are able to attending work as they have clean fresh water, this may decrease stress levels are there is now an continuous income flow, positively impacting mental health. With this continuos income, these families may be able to send their children to school, thus increasing mean years of schooling, positively impacting the education dimension of human development. With is knowledge learnt at school, children may pass on the importance of drinking clean water from the water wells to future generations, positively impacting social sustainability. Overall, the water wells programs decreases the risk of developing diseases or illnesses, therefore allow individuals to develop to their full potential and lead productive, creating lives according to their needs and interests. ]]> 2016-08-17 03:03:52 UTC https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118522434 https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118672389 2016-08-17 23:59:16 UTC https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118672389 https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118672822 2016-08-18 00:04:22 UTC https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118672822 michyoun https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118672952 Tabitha's mission is to enable the poorest of the poor in Cambodia to recognise and develop inherent skills and resources in a way that brings dignity and respect within the people they work with; within the country and within the world; and that will result in measurable and visible improvement in the lifestyles of the people they work with. ]]> 2016-08-18 00:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/michyoun/h2z8dwto0o7o/wish/118672952
