Research (information about the topic) - Final Project

 Hello,

My final decision is to write an article about the inequality in Afghanistan. 

Information that I found about this theme:

  • As in all war-torn societies, women suffer disproportionately. Afghanistan is still ranked the worst place in the world to be a woman. Despite Afghan government and international donor efforts since 2001 to educate girls, an estimated two-thirds of Afghan girls do not attend school.
  • Women in Avghanistan never have any choices.
  • Women there marry whom they make their consul.
  •  In Afghanistan are struggling to live with dignity. It also highlights how, in the face of little governmental support and dwindling international aid, women are stepping in to help one another.
  • In Afghanistan from 1996 until 2001, a period in which women were essentially invisible in public life, barred from going to school or working.
  • Government statistics from 2014 show that 80 percent of all suicides are committed by women, making Afghanistan one of the few places in the world where rates are higher among women.
  • Psychologists attribute this anomaly to an endless cycle of domestic violence and poverty. 
  • The 2008 Global Rights survey found that nearly 90 percent of Afghan women have experienced domestic abuse. 
  • “The government wants to say they’re prioritizing women,” But they’re really not. Transparency International ranked Afghanistan the fourth most corrupt country in the world, noting that corruption hampers humanitarian aid from getting where it needs to go.  



Afghanistan works to promote gender equality across programmes in many ways, including by:
•    Widening the participation of young girls in formal and informal schooling;
•    Supporting female teachers and vaccinators;
•    Promoting adolescent health through the provision of iron folic acid in schools to prevent anemia;
•    Providing gender separated sanitation facilities and menstrual hygiene management in schools to encourage girls to enroll and stay in school;
•    Working to prevent child marriage;
•    Supporting quality maternal care;
•    Ensuring equality in access to health and nutrition services.

Portfolio websites

I found some portfolio websites to help me for mine. 1. Christina Vanessa Christina is Graphic designer and visual communicator and she has an eye for aesthetics. Her first page on her portfolio website is a simple expression of her creative work and personality. There’s a fullscreen looped video showcasing her best pieces, with her name and disciplines written above. Following this promising introduction, Christina’s ‘Explore’ page is just as impressive, incorporating multiple design features . From the works themselves to the layered blocks that make up the page’s layout, the website’s color scheme is cohesive and neutral. The soft shades of cream, beige and gray craft a serene atmosphere, further reinforced by the smooth animations. On her website there are two pages. The first one is the explore and the second one is the about me page. On her about me page, she put information for herself and contact details. This page I make it too and I wrote information for myself. On the next...

Research post for an idea

Psychological impact of the COVID-19 Is the covid-19 affecting our mental health? The results of Covid-19is the heightened anxiety, with immediate effects on our mental health. There are  fears of contagion lead us to become more conformist and tribalistic, and less accepting of eccentricity. In addition, the every day reminders of the sick maybe even sway our political affiliations. Moreover, this sickness can affect our mental health because we stayed home and we cannot do anything.  The changes about meetings with psychologists: In my opinion everyone need face to face sessions with psychology because, all we have some problems to discuss. Since covid came in our lives  , allied health professionals such as psychologists were not deemed "essential services." This meant that psychologists were not allowed to see people at their office face-to-face and all sessions had to be shifted through phones. This was different and difficult for everyone. I could say...
