\n Occupation:<\/strong> educationist<\/span><\/p>\n

Why would you like to participate in this study program?<\/span><\/strong>
\n To develop my leadership skills and potentials, share ideas, have global education and keep abreast of new global trends in leadership and development, network with other members on-line and gain experience in order to see how I can use my knowledge to innovate change in my environment in order to make my own contribution to others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please describe your vision of a world that works for everyone.<\/span><\/strong>
\n In the new future I hope to see my self in a position helping young people to know their purpose in the world, fulfilling that purpose by developing and imapacting in the lives of others. It is my dream to see that unemployment, poverty, incomparative advantage and youths marginalization be a thing of the past. I also hope to see the youths prepared for the leadership challenge ahead of them by developing their leadership, enterpreneurial, communication and interpersonal skill. I believe that an educated youth is a mighty potential to changing the world. If youths are groomed and well prepared for the task ahead of them they there would be unimaginable change socially, economically, technologically and politically. I want to see the youths taking the lead and being fulfilled in every sense of the word.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?<\/span><\/strong>
\n The most pressing problem in the world today is poverty. Poverty of the mind, material poverty. In the Millenium Development Goal, the first goal is to half poverty by 2015. The international community knows the impact of the poverty in the life of the individual. Poverty gives birth to other diseases like: HIV, prostitution, untimely death and many others. Poverty is a terrible plague. In Africa, it is said that “poverty is the only disease which no doctor can heal, but only education.”<\/span><\/p>\n

We all know and agree that the greatest poverty is that of the mind. A person that is materially poor, but mentally educationally endowed is not poor. He can make himself rich through his mind power. On the other hand, someone who is both poor materially and educationally has double tragedy.<\/span><\/p>\n

You see that another key target in the UN MDGs is education: gender education and universal basic education.<\/span><\/p>\n

To me I think if people have basic education, half of their problem is solved. But without this, people will still living in misery because they would not be able to fight this hydra-headed monster called poverty without the most important weapon, “education’. Nelson Mandela once said:” education is the greatest tool with which to change the world.” So my submission is that poverty is the most pressing problem facing the world toady<\/span><\/p>\n
