I CARE





To care can be a huge sacrifice that millions

of people may never wish to get involved in it.

Care is defined as efforts made to do 

something correctly, safely, or without 

causing damage; things that are done to 

keep someone healthy, safe; things that are 

done to keep something in good condition.

Infact the total idea of care is about preserving sacrifice which most people may not have the tenacity to achieve.  Lots of persons are always finding ways of enriching themselves from people while others are constantly complaining of the economy, situations or their inability to maintain their comfort zones.  Yet to these lots have been committed the gifts and passion to care for people in the rural areas.  For us at The Rural People, we care to provide food, shelter, health, education, skill empowerment, disaster relief and economic/community development to the rural communities.
What do you trully care for and what sacrifices have you made to sustain what you care for.

Although this industry has the potential of reducing poverty through income and employment generation, the use of primitive methods of mining constantly contributes its toll to the degradation of our environment. http://www.ajol.info/index.php/jorind/article/view/42333 Regrettably, while the government spends lots of money on importing these precious stones and mineral deposits, lots of these rural dwellers can be trained and equipped in harnessing this profession as they have chosen it ...

THE NEED FOR THEMATIC INVESTIGATION/RESEARCH IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

THE NEED FOR THEMATIC INVESTIGATION/RESEARCH IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES The need for research cannot be overemphasized in the organization of community development activities.    A lot of persons have depended on common sense in selecting what they consider as the most common need of the rural dwellers and have ignorantly embarked on such activities.   Thematic investigation is always one of the first activities embarked upon before and after a community development proposal has been approved.   Again, thematic investigation also   means ‘searching for facts; finding answers to questions;   identifying an existing problem and   getting closest solutions to these identified problem’ amongst others. Again, thematic investigation gives the rural dwellers the opportunity to explain in their own words how they feel, what they think and how they make sense of the world they live in.     The following are some of the reas...
