North Africa Water Conflict

According to the International Water Management Institute environmental research organisation global water stress is increasing, and a third of all people face some sort of water scarcity. Where demand exceeds supply and no effective management operates, there will be conflicts between the various players involved.

The main topic of this text is the veil in North African and Middle-Eastern regions. Western people and Middle-Eastern people do not share the same opinion about its use, while the occidental region considers it as a simple cloth, sometimes it is even considered as humiliating, the Middle-Eastern region gives an important value to it due to its religious and historical significance. Many authors from different countries debated about the pros and cons of wearing

Within the Middle East, the largest population of the men and women are Muslim. The Muslim religion suggests that the women wear a veil or hijab, which is a headscarf that only exposes a woman’s eyes, accompanied by a burqa which is a full body cloak. The sole purpose of the clothing is to cover a woman’s feminine features from men’s eyes. The Qur’an, an Islamic scripture supports, and slightly obligates the uniform by saying that women are to be conservative, “Let them wear their head covering over their bosoms, and not display their ornaments.” (Qur’an). Muslim women, instead of feeling oppressed, view this as a positive aspect in their lives, influenced by their devotion to Allah. Their acceptance could be influenced by their

“Life is full of unhappiness and most of it caused by women (Harik and Marston 11)”. For women in the Middle East life is faced with great and unequal odds, as their human rights are limited, due to Islamic beliefs and that of patriarchy. From their daily actions at home to their physical appearance, Middle Eastern women are portrayed as quiet, faceless women veiled from head to toe. While this image is just another stereotype, women in the middle do face many obstacles and challenges of creating their own identity as they are frequently denied a voice in their rights. Living in a society dominated by men life is not, but regardless women in the Middle East, predominantly Muslims, continue to fight for

While the Aral Sea is beset by similar problems of pollution from the rivers that supply the sea with water, it also suffers from a lack of water reaching it. Much of the water these rivers provide is siphoned off to provide irrigation for farms in the region, causing the sea's surface area to plummet dramatically while the depth has dropped in the process (Vinogradov & Langford, 2001, p. 347).

Still not all immigrants have the same reasons, some immigrants run way because of fear due to political or economic raisons, countries that are more developed and more advanced into technology and opportunities. Other raisons that some persons immigrate are for the future of their children, more futuristic perspective. They immigrate to give more opportunities to their children to obtain better lives or being in a better environment.

Egypt faces a water crisis because the Nile river disappearing and it is how they farm and get water.“Egypt gets almost all of its water from the Nile. The quality of the river water is seriously threatened by untreated industrial and agricultural wastes, sewage, and municipal waste-water. In addition, the Aswan High Dam, which was completed in 1970, has reduced the flow of the Nile and trapped the nutrient in the soil,which is not good So if Egypt doesn't get some help from the other countries it will eventually cease to have life

The Middle East is far from monumental and homogenous. Its differences have been a source of both strength and inspiration. The most visible, most pervasive, and the least recognized aspects of

Within the Middle East, the largest population of the men and women are Muslim. The Muslim religion suggests that women wear a veil or hijab, which is a head scarf that only exposes a woman’s eyes, accompanied by a burqa which is a full body cloak.

The Qur’an, an Islamic scripture, supports and slightly obligates the uniform by saying that women are to be conservative, “let them wear their head covering over their bosoms, and not display their ornaments.” (Qur’an). It could be inferred that women wear the burqa and veil willingly because of their geographical location. However, when Muslim women are withdrawn from the Middle East, and are placed

The scarcity, depletion and polluting of water in one of the world's driest regions, is a problem that has perplexed the nations of the Middle East for decades. The riparian states of the Jordan River Basin include Israel, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. These states are in a constant struggle over securing water rights for their respective states. The conflict over water is also overshadowed by the Arab-Israeli issues and the subsequent territorial questions. While territory is often at the forefront of the issues, securing water has also become a contributing factor in the conflicts of the past, and will continue in the future. Choices of conflict or cooperation will have to be made, given the diminishing amounts of water available.

According to the United Nations, Kenya’s citizens are one of the most struggling populations in the world. In recent investigations of factors affecting Kenya, water scarcity appears as one of its key problems that require addressing. This is due to the fact that water provides the basis for sustainability and development, both which have halted from its lacking. As a result, the Kenyan population finds itself battling with this reality and attempting to manage day to day life with the scarce existence of this resource. Despite government and international attempts to mitigate the crisis, the Kenyan population continues to struggle due to the lack of water. This paper seeks to analyze the causes of the water crisis in order to expose how it is an issue that requires immediate attention to stabilize Kenya. It will discuss problems within and outside the water sector in order to explain their broader implications. Specifically, how climate change and geographical realities in combination with poverty, poor political management all result in poor health and a stagnating economy. Finally, the paper will analyze and access proposed solutions in order to attempt to provide a form of guidance for this crucial problem.

Several economic social and environmental reasons are behind the migration. The economic migration resulted in order to find a new job or to pursue a particular career. The social migration could be happened to move closer to the family or friends for better quality of life. Political migration could be happened because of war or other political tension. The environmental conditions such as

Multifaceted factors including social, economic, political and can be short term or long-term. ‘Push factors’ in source countries, such as insufficient remunerations, unsatisfactory working conditions and weak health systems give way to ‘pull factors’ including systematic and organised recruitment efforts by developed nations. The global drivers for migration include accessibility through travel and trade agreements, ageing population due to advancements in technology and people requiring more specialised services

In developing countries, passing along technical information for maintaining pumps and sanitizing the local water supply will help not only relieve the burden of responsibility, but allow them to maintain a constant supply. Factories and cleaning facilities establish jobs and financial stability when in the right hands. Knowledge of finances and business will help establish revenue and economic stimulation, thus allowing for better technology for survival in the future. Technological innovations in developed and developing countries will allow war-ing states to have more access to water not previously known before. Over 260 river basins are shared by two or more countries. These areas not only cause a conflict of interest, but can affect the source as well. War pollution and use of water in machine production can cause a water source to become polluted and reduce its size greatly. Various solutions to these problems exist and implementing them is up to the people who will be affected by it. Each will be throughly discussed in this paper and find hopefully find an affordable solution that will benefit us generously now and for future generations to come.

When it comes to migration there are many factors of why people would want to migrate. We signify the factors as push and pull factors: push factors are what makes people want to leave and pull factors are what makes people want to move in.
