Impact of migration
Migration has always existed since, one of the first
Places were migration started was the United States, the
most common place was New York City this is where
most of the people from Europe arrive and from there on it
was a country that receive thousands of people. The
migration from people of different countries in Costa Rica
it’s been growing fast and is hard to control; migration
has brought different things to our country like for
example; cultural aspects and economic growth, but there
are good and bad things too.
Cultural aspects like the food they cook, the different
words they use, the manners they have all of this changes
our culture our identity, this has a big impact in our
society; our country is turning into a melting pot.
The economy has improve because of the investment
that people from other countries had done, real state
agencies from all over the world see Costa Rica has the
place to be. Most of the immigrants work in construction
and they are the ones that help the economy.
Immigration has a great impact in our society,
immigration has good and bad things, some of the good
things are that the immigrants help develop our economy,
bad things could be that some people our running away
from their countries to avoid some problems or they come
here to do bad things for example there are lots of drug
dealers that are from different countries.
Immigration is good but the government has to work
harder to prevent bad people from coming in to Costa Rica
and destroying our society, but also we most try to live
with harmony and peace and work together to have a
better country.

Violence at Home
Violence at Home
Violence is making are society struggle every day, we see it on the
streets, but that is just a reflection of this unsolved issue that has his roots
on most of the homes of this “peaceful country”. There this is the place
where violence really begins where values are allegedly been taught,
where love should be spread, but is a cruel and sad reality this, is where
everything starts. There are many factors that predispose the violence at
home such acts are more common every day in are society.
Nowadays domestic violence is call domestic terrorism and there is a
simple answer on the why is call this and is because the domestic violence
is not seeing as threat on our society, instead its just shown as a act of
love, an act of jealousy and something just normal. Normal to a society
where nobody cares, a society where if it has nothing to do wit then they
wound do anything about it.
Violence starts when at home simple things are taken away, like
freedom, freedom to choose. On the other hand, the media is teaching kids
at a young age that violence is fine that the strongest one will always win,
that the only one that really matters is me an there is nothing else that
matters, kids are learning that only by force everything will be solve, music,
video games even toys teach to fight, we are living on a society that is
pleased with violence a society that is collapsing and that soon will get
even worse.
The reason is very clear of why and where violence begun and why
nobody really cares it is simple there are not enough strong laws that
protects innocent people, and the why because there are not strong
leaders that are really fighting for a better world or a better community.
Promises come and go, also governors or leaders come and go so
Violence would be hard to eradicate.
Change should start at home where everything should be normal, when
us as a society, decided to change everything would be easier but if we
don’t really care change would never come, lets be examples at our home
at our neighborhoods, at school and I truly believed if we do so will have
a more pleasant life a better society and a saver world.

Penalties
Penalties
Governments deal whit different types of violence therefore they have different sentences or penalties for the different acts of violence that citizens committed. Laws are not working because the government it’s afraid to implement news laws and harder sentences to the different acts that make our society worse. A clear example is the law for drunk drivers that were established a few months ago and most of the parties on the national assembly voted against it. Laws are made to have a better country but if we don’t support them that’s never going to happen.
There are many different ways of violence in our country, for example we have the domestic violence that is one of the most common ones, violence on the streets with the drunk drivers and also we have the violence that has always take part of our society the people that are drug dealers, robbers on the streets etc. There are laws but they are not as effective as they should be.
The domestic violence has always been part of our society, but in our country the penalties are not well established so aggressors take advantage of this and this is the reason why we see killings every day because laws are not working on favor of the need ones, on the news papers we see how this violence is growing and the laws are the same ones as 30 years ago.
Also we have the drunk drivers this is the new trend drunk drivers killing innocent people and getting away. A new law was established a while back, but the majority of the government representatives voted against the law because they thought it was too hard on the aggressors, what the representatives did was to send a message to the society saying it’s fine to drink and drive and if you injure someone you’ll get away with it.
Laws are a joke to our society; penalties should be harder for the aggressors, the government should take part on improving the laws and they should protect the innocent people that are being attacked. As citizens we most unite our voice so we can be heard and built a better society of peace.

University presentations
University presentations
The university week consisted on taking different countries were english is spoken and presented to the classmates. The idea was to informed the people about the different countries and their culture, also it give us an opportunity to develop are spoken skills, and it was a challenge for some of us.
The opportunity that was given to us as students was challenging but it was fun also because it give us the opportunity to develop are social skills were we had to speak in from of different people and also in from of our classmates, for some of us was hard because we are not just to speak in from of a lot of people.
The different countries that were exposed, were countries where the main language spoken is english it was interesting to learned about the culture, sports, symbols, the food they eat, the main events they have and also the places you could visit if you were there, the idea was to introduce the countries to the public.
The presentations were a good opportunity to develop the spoken skills it was different for us because it push us to talk at we were able to be more fluid when we were talking, it also helps us see that there are many things that we need to improve on, it was a way of measuring are level of english.
The university week was fun and we were able to be more confident when we had to speak in from of people, I believe that activities like this one help us develop our speaking skills and this is one of the reason this activities should be done more often, this is the way to challenge the students and measure if they really learned.

Current ethnic conflict
Ethnic conflicts are a war between ethnic groups often as a result of ethnic nationalism. There are different situation that cause conflicts between nations or ethnic groups, for example religion, fights for territories or geographical areas and politics, among others.
Religion is one of the most common ethnic conflict, the reason is not so clear but usually it has to do whit what someone believes is because people don’t see eye to eye, it is the same God, people is the one that changes how to see it and usually they don’t agree and that’s why the hate starts to act.
Like religion geographical areas are common to the wars that create conflicts between states or nations, one example that has always existed is the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, many people has die because of this brotherhood is far for being truth, instead hatred is growing every day.
Politics have always made relations between countries harder, because usually one of the countries tries to take over controlled the other, politics is so related geographical issues, power over takes reality and leads to conflicts it blinds countries or governments that don’t really care about consequences but instead they just look for their comfort.
Ethnic conflicts have always been part of live or history, it is really hard to solve this cane problems, solutions are far from been conquer, it is mine believed that the only way to understand other people and believes is being respectful of what they believe to be true.

Globalization of infectious diseases
There are many infectious diseases around the world; infectious diseases are one of the principal causes of death around the world; usually the poorest countries are the ones that deal whit almost all of those diseases. Informing people about the causes and problems that these pathologies can bring is only one of the solutions for this growing issue that is killing people every day.
The health centers and governments all around the world know that infectious diseases cross all nations and boundaries, they also know that long term solutions require lots of time to plan effective ways of prevention and public health. Influenza, for example, is one of the most common infectious diseases but also we can mention HIV and Hepatitis B that are becoming more common every day, all of this could be prevented.
Prevention its achieve when governments act to avoid all of the pathologies coming in from different parts of the world, this usually happens when people from other countries come from their vacations or also happens when someone that, came from a different place, was not properly immunized and this can usually result in sickness. Preventing all of this requires effort from everyone, especially from the governments and health centers to come up whit different solutions.
Solutions are effective when people, instead of just talking start acting. The first solution is to educate people about prevention of infectious diseases, also through research, train more people on this discipline to find cures for the pathologies that affect our society.
It is impossible to eradicate all of those infectious diseases, but it is possible to educate ourselves to prevent it from getting sick and avoid getting everyone else sick. Health should be our main goal. I believe prevention and education are the keys to have a better life style.

Poverty
When we talk about poverty this means being unable to afford basic human
needs, like clean water, nutrition, health care, education, clothing and shelter.
Poverty affects not only a part of the orb but the whole world, there are some
Continents that are poorer then others like Africa then we have America more
specifically Central America, but the thru is that is not only affecting a part of society
it is everywhere.
Most of the people that are poor are not avail to afford the basic human needs,
clean water is hard to get for people that have no economic facilities or that live in
places really far; they usually boil their water to be able to drink it. It is also hard for
then to provide a good nutrition if they have no money to buy then. Usually when
nutrition and clean water are hard to provide the health is not really good and
education becomes harder; providing food, providing shelter is more important that
providing clothing not because they don’t want to but because they can’t
Poverty affects the whole world, but the most affect it part of world is the
African continent; this is where most of people die of hunger specially little kids
that have nothing to eat and to make it worse health is an issue too, there is no
proper health care, most of people are infected whit the HIV virus, this countries
have no support of any kind from its government; wars have destroy this continent
and sink it in poverty.
Central America is also affected by poverty as Africa, Central America has also
being let to a side by its governors, wars also were part of the dark history of central
America; nature has also play a role on the economy of the area because of the
many hurricanes’ that have destroy the countries living then in ruins, education is low
an is also a factor on poverty.
Poverty it’s been always part of the society, there are many factors, but there are
also many solutions. Governors should show more interest in making projects, plans
to solved it, what we can do is stared in our communities, help people to achieve
new goals. We need a better educational system to prepare people better, poverty
is hard to eradicate.
