Humanitarian aid

“ For any of us, the loss of a job, death of a spouse or a child or a severe physical disability could be the route to total despair.”(Anonymous 1) To help homeless people we can come together and help build shelters, give toys to kids, financial aid to families, and provide medical attention. Also, we should give everyone the minimum wage of ten dollars for every…

Humanitarian Intervention Humanity as a basis value for all individuals, we all born with equality in terms of human dignity and rights. These rights must be respected and cannot be violated by other people or even state. This notion is seemed to contradict with the real situation that occurs in the world since the violation of people is likely to increase. International community wants all to realize the important of humanity and uphold this virtue so the incidents of humanity violation will…

over 200 private oocyte, female egg, donation agencies. The women that donate are paid about $5,000- $8,000 per donation and this has caused many women to donate. Although many of the agencies deny that they are buying oocytes, but instead are paying the women for their “time and inconvenience,” thus a loophole. If .the blood and reproductive cell incentivized donations have shown us anything is that a monetized incentive will boost the donations (Harris and Alcorn). Many governments around…

In 2011, a war broke out in Syria. And it is still being fought today. This war has taken a toll on the lives of so many, forcing millions of people to flee the country in search of a new home. Three main countries have helped immensely in taking in refugees- Turkey, Jordan, and Lebanon. Each of these countries has taken in a large portion of the refugees and provided them with a home, but the resources of them all are running low and they are having a hard time maintaining economic stability.…

is as follows: • If you don’t donate to organizations like UNICEF and Oxfam America, you’re acting just as badly as Bob. The reason why Singer believe this is because Bob’s situation resembles that of people able but unwilling to donate to overseas aid organizations like UNICEF and Oxfam America. Singer paraphrases one of philosopher Peter Unger’s book, Living High and Letting Die example in his argument. It is about a man named Bob who just invested most of his savings in a very rare and…

The amount of food that restaurants waste could help many people. It would also help people by saving up money. One way would be by not buying food that you know for sure you're not going to consume. About 1/8 people in America are surfing with starvation. Although some people believe that homeless will take advantage of getting food for free, however there are people that are suffering not able to have a meal for that day. Parent would do anything for their kids. Middle class believes there…

Red Cross. An international organization that's been helping other for 136 years, founded under the terms of the agreement from Geneva, Switzerland (the rule of the humane treatment). More than 25,000 volunteers support The Red Cross in helping others, and donations keep the programs running, but The Red cross foundation needs more help. I believe with your help The Red Cross can grow and keep working to save lives. The Red Cross Foundation started in America on May 21, 1881 by Clara Barton.…

International aid as we know it today was borne of the violence of World War II (Ali & Zeb). Humanitarian aid began in earnest with the Marshall Plan to aid Europe in its reconstruction, and it was solidified as the fourth point in Harry Truman’s Four Point inaugural address: "we must embark on a bold new program for making the benefits of our scientific advances and industrial progress available for the improvement and growth of underdeveloped areas” (Truman). Established agencies immediately…

to that extent in the future. On a basic level, the idea of offering aid and promoting development seems the most logistical. Of course, it makes sense to provide for the future with development as demonstrated by the program idea of resilience. Resilience argues for the combination of humanitarian aid and development programs and has become popular in politics and basically argues that ending need is a priority of humanitarian organizations. However, based on evidence from articles on…
