Life Of Ethiopia Vs Life During The Usa

Many countries around the world have developed food deficiency and food insecurity issues. Deficiency is the lack or shortage of something, so food deficiency is the shortage of food; and food insecurity is when people in an area do not have access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food at all times to meet their dietary needs. There are five main factors that contribute to a country having food deficiency and food insecurity issues, these being: environmental, demographic, political, social, and economic factors. All of these factors have influenced Ethiopia to having food deficiency and food insecurity problems. Ethiopia is located in the Horn of Africa and is home to about 85 million people, and has been suffering from food deficiency and insecurity problems for quite a while. These five factors have contributed to Ethiopia’s current state, in regard to food.

Imagine if there was no home to live, we were not assigned this topic to write. It is obvious to have different techniques and materials in every country and culture. It is different even in the same country, but different city or state; countryside and in a capital city. It is some advantage and disadvantage to the environment when a country made a home. There are two main differences between my country, Ethiopia and in the United States in order to the Materials and the benefits to the environment.

Ethiopia is a country that creates image of starving. In 1980, many countries of east Africa had drought, and political unrest so people displaced from their shelter to camping, In addition when people moves to other place from their village or town, due to civil war, it is hard to produce crops or grain for food. Therefore those all causes refuges who lives in camps specifically in Ethiopia in 1980. During that time Ethiopia asked aid for the United Nations so the united nation were showing to the world about Ethiopian famine so that it could get assistance from the world. European countries and America assisted to Ethiopia to receive food, medicine, and other material. While Ethiopian economic is growing fast in the world by 10.3 per year

In Ethiopia, there is usually plenty of rain, and the farmers do not have to irrigate their crops. On the other hand, Somalia is very hot and dry farmers can only grow crops near a river an oasis or where they can use irrigation. This makes it very difficult for the Ethiopians to grow food, and they have suffered severe drought several times since the 1980s Lack of rainfall also makes it very difficult for them to raise livestock. Ethiopia has suffered from famines, and many people have died from hunger there. One way farmers can try to overcome the effects of rainfall is to plant a large variety of crops some that need alot of rain and some that can survive with very little rain. This way hopefully they can grow enough crops to stay subsistent which means they and feed and nourish their

All throughout the world, imperialism was spreading quickly through the nations. More land meant more power, superior nations were looking to take over smaller less powerful ones. When it came to conquering smaller countries, the superior nation had to be able to manage and control it successfully. This idea was first bought forth during the Berlin Conference during the separation of African colonies. It stated that any European country could claim land in Africa; however, they must be able to keep control of their conquered area. Managing some African colonies would prove to be a difficult task for some of the European nations. In fact, Nigeria and Ethiopia would both play a part in the African resistance. In order for the spread of imperialism to work, these European nations would have to create imperial management methods. The Europeans were able to come up with many different forms and management methods of imperialism to use in Africa.

The question of education is significant for each child on earth. But e.g. for people from industrial nations, education is one of the most normal issues on the planet, we underestimate the chance of learning. In any case, education is

I am originally from Somalia a country located in the East Africa also called “Horn of Africa”, bordered by Ethiopia, Djibouti and Kenya. I was born and raised in Kenya. However, both my parents were born and rise in Somalia, they went their school in Mogadishu, Somalia, and built their family there. Five of my siblings, we were born in Mogadishu Somalia, but unfortunately, they did not had the opportunity to experience them early childhood in Somalia. In a brief history the Republic of Somalia has had its ups and downs with unrest, starting with a war, which broke out in the early 90’s. With these conflicts came unbearable life situations and many people searched for opportunities all over the world, mainly the western continents.

It is important that people have the opportunity for an education, which will allow him or her to earn a living for themselves and for their families. Most people, given the chance, will work hard to help their families. With a good education, one can learn skills that will be the most powerful tools that he or she can have to rise out of poverty. There are ways in which one can attend school, such as with grants or loans. With the lack of education, one’s job opportunity will be limited. Most employers want their employees to have an education. People in poverty do not always have the chance to go to school or even to finish school. They are needed to work for the family by getting low paid jobs that will keep them in the poverty which they are living

I have lived in Ethiopia and in the United States. When I came to the United States before 5 years ago I was having a hard time to get used to with the time flow. It was a summer time and at 8:00 pm it looks like a day I was surprised I have never seen something like that in my life before. I will never forget what happened once I registered for class at 1:30 pm and I was so confused with the time since we don’t use AM and PM time division in Ethiopia. I thought that my class was a morning class and when I came to the school 30 minutes early nobody was there. I asked the security guy and he told me that my class is in the afternoon. Ethiopia and the United States have differences in traditions, language, and economy.

Poverty plays a huge role in how much a country gets to eat. Here in the United States, five percent of households experienced very low food security, according to the organization of Feeding America. Although that number should really be zero, it as actually relatively low compared to countries like Afghanistan, one of the world’s poorest countries. One of the biggest issues in this country is food insecurity, leaving 33 percent of the population without a guarantee of food. Another example can be given by the organization World Information Transfer. They said that Ethiopia has been food deficient since at least the year of

2. the vast majority collects most of its basic foods needs either by food or cash transfers. In comparison in Somalia, Ethiopia is also experiencing the worst drought within these past thirty years. Save the Children in January 2015 projected that roughly 2.9 million people were suffering from food security and has risen to over 10 million within a course of a year. Similarly to Somalia, Ethiopia’s main source of income is livestock and agriculture; however, due to the lack of rain it has left millions with no source of food (leads to malnutrition) or income. Ethiopia’s government allocated 297 million dollars in assistance to relieve efforts within the country . However, the 297 million dollars in assistance is not enough and it’s projected that an approximation of 1.4 billion dollars is needed to provide adequate food, shelter, and other resources to relieve efforts in Ethiopia.

Even though I have been to Ethiopia few times I was really little, So I never realized what I was actually experiencing. the first few times I have been there I remember the Rainy mornings and nights the muddy grounds and the crazy thunderstorms which you can here so loudly like rocks hitting the tin roof. I remember walking to get everywhere, eating Ethiopian food and buying things from stores and sellers on the streets.At the time of the trip, I took when I was little It did not Really seem like much of America was different from Ethiopia. I always thought no matter where you go that life was a breeze. That you could wake up go to school or work come back to your family and have a nice day but clearly, that was not the case for everybody

Education plays a big role in the world that we live in today. Having an education will take you very far in life with things such as owning your own business and even just getting a job. Everyone has the dream of owning a business or having their dream job, but for some people having their dream job or being a boss is more difficult than it sounds. Places in the world like Haiti are very poor countries which makes it hard for them to receive a good education. In Haiti, education is an honor, it is not a right for them like it is in America, meaning the education is not a top priority for everyone because of the economic issues that they face. In Haiti about half of the population never got the chance to attend school. Then, out of those who are fortunate enough to attend school sixty percent of the students drop out before they enter sixth grade and twenty percent never make it to primary school. These problems are due to being a part of the several poor income families and they need their children to work instead of attending class but, this all is just a start to the understanding of education in Haiti.

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").

As a result of poverty and marginalization, more than 72 million children around the world remain unschooled. Sub-Saharan Africa is the most affected area with over 32 million children of primary school age remaining uneducated. Central and Eastern Asia, as well as the Pacific, are also severely affected by this problem with more than 27 million uneducated children. In addition, these regions must also resolve continuing problems of educational poverty (a child in education for less than 4 years) and extreme educational poverty (a child in education for less than 2 years) (Omwami & Keller, 2010).
