Making a positive contribution - development of self-confidence, to ensure understanding of rights and responsibilities, the extent to which young people are consulted about key decisions. Opportunity to develop by including community activities. Also a focus on enabling young people to develop appropriate independent behaviour and to avoid engaging in antisocial behaviour. Achieving economic well-being - arrangements for developing self-confidence, enterprise and teamwork, the provision of good careers advice and training for financial competence, and the accessibility of opportunities for work experience and work-based learning.

In Margaret Adsett’s article on young voters in Canada, she discusses the growing problem of low youth involvement in politics. In the paper, she tries to explain why the number of young voters has gone down from 70 per cent to 40 per cent between 1970 and 2000.

This assignment will include information about property crime, how businesses deal with it and whether the punishments for property crime are effective enough.

Have you ever been to a Licking County park? I have been to both Licking County State Parks. I am going to explain some of the similarities and differences of Buckeye Lake State Park and Flint Ridge State Park, which is really more of a National park because it is a massive park which I will explain in later paragraphs. I am going to talk about why these parks are so well known their terrain and some of the things that can be seen at these state parks. There are many different parks in Licking County but there are two well known state parks, Buckeye Lake State Park and Flint Ridge State Park, in some ways they are the same and some ways are very different.

Politicians should be engaging youth in upcoming elections through face-to-face interaction and the use of technology. Young voters don’t have enough awareness and knowledge about politics. By conducting outreach programs or visiting high schools and college/university campuses, would help young voters understand political platforms and will give the political leaders an opportunity to hear the concerns of young voters. For example, as post secondary students it would be encouraging to have the chance to engage with political leaders, and have a better understanding of what they represent and who we feel best represents us as Canadian citizens.

Conservatives receive an increasing percentage of votes in correlation with age and Lib Dem and Labour have high performance among the younger groups. The writer G.B. Shaw once wrote that, 'If you are not a socialist by the time you are 25, you have no heart. If you are not a Conservative by the time you are 35, you have no head'.  There is the entrenched view that young people are more liberal whilst as individuals grow older they become more set in their ways, more wedded to traditional values and attitudes and more likely to believe that Conservative governments are more likely to safeguard their financial and personal security which appear increasingly important in later life. Considering this, surprisingly in the 2010 general election, the ages of 18-24 voted fairly equally between the three main parties with the age bias gap only really becoming apparent from the age 55 onwards. This shows that younger prejudices and party alignment are not as ingrained as that of the elderly meaning that old people may be influenced in their voting behaviour by their age but the same is not as apparent for young people, despite the surface recognition that it is. Yet the implication of young people sharing their votes between parties could be due to other factors, when

In the last federal election only 43 per cent of people under age 34 cast ballots, compared to 65 per cent of older voters. If social media isn’t getting young voters than the question continues of what will. Many do believe it is the schools system that didn’t encourage political movement throughout early childhood. In addition it has been proven that if something is not nurtured at a young age, the chances of it ever being put into action is doubted. Many of the families whose parents voted, the children followed and their children. Therefore, creating a clear pattern if young people didn’t start early the likely hood of them ever starting depends on their demand for change. “It used to be that researchers expected that, as young people got older, they would show up in higher numbers at the ballot box — but the ‘Life Cycle Effect’, as it’s been called, looks like it’s starting to fade. The voters that are not showing up now are not likely to show up later, either. That has dire implications for our

The first consequence to politicians’ plat forming seniors is the youth feeling unimportant. Politicians are doing very little for the youth because their history of low voter turn out, which they actually caused. Politicians are only interested in fixing the small problems of seniors, instead of fixing the bigger problems such as the teacher’s union resulting a teacher strike, leaving hundreds of students and teachers out of schools across Ontario. This problem not only effects the youth still trying to finish school, but middle-aged teachers who are about to lose their job. Politicians still only care about the pension plan and waiting list for hip replacement. Youth do not pay taxes, they are not in need of a pension plan and are not concerned about mortgage rates, but still these are the only items permoted in the election campaigns. Youth want lower

The area of Zion National Park is two hundred and twenty-nine square miles located in the Southwestern United States near Springdale, Utah. A prominent feature is Zion Canyon which is fifteen miles long and up to eight hundred meters deep, cutting through the Navajo Sandstone by the North Fork of the Virgin River. The lowest elevation is 3,666 feet at Coal Pits Wash and the highest elevation is 8,726 feet at Horse Ranch Mountain. Located at the junction of the Colorado Plateau, Mojave Desert, and Great Basin regions, the park's unique geography and variety of life zones allow for unusual plant and animal diversity. The four life zones that can be found in Zion National Park are desert, riparian, woodland, and coniferous forest. There are two

Before the individual referendums for Scottish independence and EU independence political interest and election turnout amongst young people was statistically low and steadily decreasing. This changed for the referendums but it is doubtful however there will be a high turnout of young people in forthcoming local and national elections. Young people tend to vote on single topics, for single issue parties and in referendums more than elections. If 16 year olds could vote more needs to be done to gain young people’s interest in politics.

The message emerging from a recent research series on youth civic and political participation is clear: today's youth are not disjoined from associational and small political life, but they are increasingly disenchanted with formal political institutions and practices. Children and youth under 18 have made sententious strides in recent years toward fuller involvement in democratic processes. These strides,

The Disney Program is a semester- long paid internship at a Walt Disney Resort where students gain experience by working there, while attending college-level courses. These programs can be found at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida or at Disneyland in Anaheim, California. The Disney Program has some requirements for participation. The applicant must: be currently enrolled and taking classes at a college or have graduated in the past six-months, be eligible by their school for participation, be at the age of 18 or older, and be able to work without any restrictions. If accepted, the participants will be provided housing located near the site where they will work. The housing will be a fully furnished apartment with

One of the main misunderstandings in environmental crime is the lack of consistency in the definition and classification of environmental crime. The primary problem is differing perspectives as to what constitutes as environmental crime, embedded in moral, philosophical and legalistic interpretations of harm and in what circumstances does this harm becomes a crime (White, 2008). Many criminologists have put forth perspectives which explain the reasons why individuals and corporations engage in activities that cause environmental harms. These perspectives can be linked to the original environmental or green criminology perspectives. Pollution and dumping has become an increasingly costly problem for the environment. As a results,
