Voluntary and Involuntary Migration
About this event: 2006 United Nations Conference on Human Rights Migration and Development


The article I read was about Voluntary and Involuntary migration. It was basically talking about the different reasons why immigrants eave ther home palces and move to different places voluntary or involuntary. So they gave and example of a girl named Tina who was 27 years old. They talked about how she lefft Uganda to find her boyfriend, but where she lived was falling apart anyway; She went to go find her boyfriend in Manchester. Also how the girl Tina made it and found her boyfriend and she sent backserveral thousand pounds back to Uganda to plot land and herold house to be knocked down. This is basicallywhat this one article was about. This would be a case of voluntary migration because she wanted to leave where she lived. But some involuntary migration moght be because of natural disasters or life or death situations.

Communities (South America)

From looking at the pictures of the community I could tell that it might be a small town. With little stores and stands everywhere. This community is different from my community because here on the streets there are houses on them and the picture didn't show any houses or huts. It is also different from my community because we don't mountains just on the regular street. However it is similar to my community because they do have stores and stands just like my community does. The most interesting thing that I seen ion the picture was how the mountains was mostly seen on the streets. I think that is so different because over seas cou tries are very different from over here in America.

9/11

I think 9/11 has effected me in some ways because I am kind of scared to get on planes now. But also becasue we never know what can happen next. Something could happen closer to us instead of in places like New York (farther away). Or something could happen to people we are close to and I think we should be grateful. I responded to Jabria's entry.

What is a Profile

From reading and creating profiles, I 've learned that profiles consist of mostly information about that person. Such as their interest and basically what they want people to know about them.
