Nature & You: Making sense of last-minute Christmas gift choices can be bewildering
For that nature-lover on your Christmas gift-buying list, nothing can be more confusing than trying to make sense of all the specifications on binocular choices. I’ll attempt to present you with a brief tutorial on how to make heads and tails of all the confusing information when you initiate your comparison shopping. First off, you’d be wise to buy binoculars that are in the mid-range of the pricing scale. The inexpensive binoculars are just too flimsy, and one errant bump can jar them out of focus. On the other end of the spectrum are those mega-expensive models that are best suited to professional scientists who spend all day, everyday in pursuit of flighty quarry.

How This African Woman Beat Global Odds To Become The 2019 Hero Of The Year
It may come across as absurd and preposterous but to this day, there is a stigma around adolescent females in the rural parts of one of the two African countries that were never colonised — Ethiopia. (Liberia is the other one.) In the rural parts of Ethiopia, young girls suffer because they are denied opportunities. And they are denied these opportunities just for being “human”. Yes, in some Ethiopian communities, young girls suffer ignominy and often drop out of school altogether just because of something as natural as menstruation. Yes, as many as half the girls in rural parts of Ethiopia miss school for reasons related to their periods — and that often hampers their education, and by extension, the rest of their lives. What an anomaly! Freweini Mebrahtu — an Ethiopian who has a degree in Chemical Engineering from the US — has dedicated her life fixing that anomaly. And for her efforts, she has been named the 2019 Hero of the Year by CNN.

Protecting Uganda’s Future – Its Children
Today is Human Rights Day and the final day of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. It’s a day to remind us that everyone must play a vital role in championing human rights and protecting those in need. Children are the most vulnerable among us, completely dependent on others for their needs and protection. This makes children the most likely to suffer violence and human rights abuses, often at the hands of those on whom they depend on the most. Uganda has an appallingly high incidence rate of violence against children. The Uganda Violence Against Children Survey (UVAC 2015) found that 75 per cent of Ugandan children experience some form of violence during childhood. Research shows that the bulk of this violence is occurring in places that should be safe and committed by people like parents/relatives, teachers, friends, and trusted community leaders who those children should be able to trust most.
