Exhibit Analysis Upon entering the exhibit the viewers will be presented with information that shows the immense diversity within the continent of Africa; this is shown through pictures. It is important to equip the viewers with general knowledge of Africa so they can go through the exhibit with a basic foundational understanding. The overall topic of the exhibit is the promotion of children's rights through the ACRWC's Articles 15 – 17. The Articles are the three major sub-themes; the right to work, health, and education. These three specific articles were chosen because of the impact they play in the development of African children. The right to education is the focal point of the sample module. The right to education is important for children; …show more content…
These three sub-themes were chosen because they each play a role in educating African children. The three sub-themes provide a narrow focus on the overall right to education in Africa. The first two pictures included in the sub-theme access to education are pictures which represent the overcrowding of classrooms. These pictures are included because according to Schanzenbach (2014) class size can be correlated to future student outcomes. The smaller the student-to-teacher ratio is the better the future outcome of the individual child. The following two pictures are included to further the understanding of access to education in relation to safety. There are many safety factors that can impact a child's education. Safety concerns are one of the main reasons children are not attending school or are found underachieving (Asante Africa Foundation, 2013). The last picture of this sub-category is included to help visualize how many children in sub-Sahara Africa are not attending school due to an unstable country. Poirier (2012) mentions how conflicted countries in Africa produce major damage to public infrastructures, and contribute to the displacement of populations. Armed conflicts heavily impact the enrolment rates of children in school. In 2009, 27 million people worldwide were displaced due to armed conflicts of this 27 million, 11.6 million people were in 21 African countries (Poirier, 2012). Thus, accenting the impact violence has on accessing education. This should impact the spectators and they should feel a sense of

Explain the importance of promoting the rights of all children and young people to participation and equality of access.
The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, illuminates the essential rights that all children have. According to the Convention, each child has the privilege of education, it is the state 's obligation to guarantee that essential education is free and necessary, to allow distinctive types of secondary training, including general and professional training and to make them open to each child and to make advanced education accessible (United Nations, 1990). But as indicated by UNICEF, an expected 93 million kids on the planet don 't get the chance to go to school, the majority whom are girls. A large part of these children are poor and their families can 't stand to send them to school. They should work to help their families survive. Others, for the most part, young girls don 't go to school since they need to help at home. However, without an education, children and families are forced to lead an existence in poverty (UNICEF, 2015).

The Bodies Exhibition at the South Street Seaport in New York City is one of several exhibitions of its kind around the world that was first displayed on August 20, 2005 in Tampa, Florida. Similar exhibitions are showing in Vienna, Madrid, Buenos Aires, Barcelona, Cincinnati, Santiago, Prague, Branson, Pittsburgh, San Diego, Las Vegas, Fort Lauderdale, Hartford, and Washington D.C. The exhibit is unique, consisting of real human bodies in various forms of disembowelment. Each body system was addressed in its own individual exhibit, starting with the skeletal system and progressing through the muscular, nervous, circulatory, digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems plus an exhibit on fetal development. Healthy and diseased

The proportion of children who are enrolled in primary schools has increased from 49% to 77% in the past decade in sub-Saharan Africa. This increase in enrollment is due mostly to the initiative of the governments from these regions to improve universal primary education. However, much remains to be done because even though enrollment has been made a possibility in a lot of these countries, there are a lot of other variables at play that still prevent children from receiving a quality education. Things such as poverty, cultural traditions, gender violence, and the incidence of early marriage are a major reason for disadvantaged groups, particularly poor girls, not making as much progress in enrolling

Education comes with social benefits as well which can improve the situation of the poor, such as lower fertility and improved health care of children ("Poverty and Education"). "Poor people are often unable to obtain access to an adequate education, and without an adequate education people are often constrained to a life of poverty." - Servaas Van Der Berg. The absolutely poor in developing countries have low education levels. Some may not even have access to primary education or may not have completed their primary education, not realizing that it is important to reduce poverty. Education is often poorly measured, and the impacts do not always show up as statistically significant in cross- country growth regressions (Levine & Renelt, 1992). Africa’s education crisis makes media headlines and analysis by the Brookings Center for Universal Education (CUE) explains why this needs to change. Progress towards universal primary education has come to a halt and learning levels of children who are in school are poor as well. Using a Learning Barometer, CUE estimates that 61 million African children will reach adolescence lacking even the most basic literacy and numeracy skills, this will deprive a whole generation of opportunities to develop and escape poverty ("Poverty, Education, & Opportunity").
Firstly, Party Politics encourages violence in schools. In the African Continent, political pressures have led to armed conflicts, and many of these conflicts made their strong ways in schools as well as in the classrooms. One of the most crucial reasons is that learners and teachers are exposed, and they suffer different types of violence such as the high level of intra, Interpersonal and intergroup violence. According to Ntsheo (2002:66) states that weapons that were in use or intended to be in use against political opponent, were often seen in schools more especially in places that are specifically in the urban area. Learners in schools think that violence can be a solution in the process of solving problems because of their political motivations.
School violence is a major controversial problem around the world. It plays an important role for the future of children and impacts the environment children are growing up in. The effects of school violence can lead severe mental and physical trauma for both perpetrators and victim along with the loss of human lives. The main cause of school violence is a combination of weak community relations and a lack of a firm hand within schools as well as communities. Our society need to demand that schools must be created safe for our children and no child should live with fear to attend school. If a student is being picked on or bullied, he or she will not want to communicate with others.
Some of the world’s poorest countries, with some of the highest child labor and illiteracy rates lie in Sub Saharan Africa. People generally associate the region only with poor economic conditions and all of the social disorder that goes along with 3rd World Status. While some of this reputation is deserved, many people are also failing to see the vast potential for this part of the world. There are several factors that African governments should look into if they want to effectively and efficiently revamp this areas quality of life. One way to do so is by improving the more crucial aspects to healthy functioning region, for example, allowing children to possess their natural rights to a decent education. This could influence an increase
The art exhibit was in the Gordon Hightower Library. The exhibit was on Thursday, April 10, 2002 and lasted all day long and is still going on. There were not many paintings, but the two main painters were Marlin Adams and R. Defamore. Adams painted portraits of fruit and people. Defamore painted a series of paintings that were all similar but very different and dark such as “The Victim- Talking Hand and Screaming Heads” and “The Hero-To Tell Or Not To Tell”.
