The Ottawa Charter for health promotion in 1986 defined health promotion as the process of helping people to increase control over and improve their health (World Health Organazation, 2014). Health promotion also incorporates the client capacity to cope with any changes to their health and giving importance to their health goals that satisfied with their needs (Chen & Lin, 2010). The Ottawa Charter (1986) for health promotion outlines five major action…

Charters (or Bills) of Rights and Judicial Review are twinned and often inseparable in the academic controversy surrounding their use and implementation. In Constitutions as Living Trees: An Idiot Defends, Waluchow attempts to defeat critics of Charters and Judicial Review by reframing the desirability of the two concepts in a manner that he argues is compatible with modern democracy. While a broad spectrum of previous conceptions of Charters fail to overcome the arguments set against them by…

My Mother’s Fight Against Education Inequality in America Inequality, as a concept is hard to quantify but, the disparity between the rich and poor in education is concrete. As America slides down the ranks in education on the world stage, the underprivileged youth suffers. In America, the land of opportunity, poor children still must overcome their socioeconomic status to receive an education equal to their richer counterparts. Education is more than an opportunity; it is a fundamental right.…

The Charter of rights gives the judiciary power to decide on constitutional issues like the legalization of same sex marriages, prostitution and physician assisted suicide. The parliament rarely interferes in the decisions taken by the courts, whether they agree the way the courts decide the issue or not.
