In view of the findings there is a great need for various stakeholders to urgently intervene and avert the effects of pastoralist conflicts on the social well-being of children and avert factors promoting hostile intercommunal interactions among pastoralists. • First as immediate caregivers of children, parents should provide basic needs, love and show affection and support their children’s education always, listen to children, and serve as role models to their children. • Secondly, the local administration and community council of elders should through advocacy and campaigns educate the people on …show more content…

    Conflict can change interaction between people, escalate, and lead towards violence when people within a community express intolerance and restrict others. Some leaders of a community confine others who are different from them, conveying their intolerance; this usually creates more conflict and perpetuates negative opinions.

  • Paul Tough's Book Report

    619 Words  | 3 Pages

    Paul Tough’s Whatever It Takes focuses on Geoffrey Canada’s program, “The Harlem Children’s Zone”, which aims to take students living in one of the lowest performing districts in New York City and keep them on track for graduation and eventually college. This book shows the various challenges that come with trying to change a system that has built to fail these students. One of the earliest lessons that Canada learns is that in order to make a major difference on these student’s lives, he needs to have a comprehensive approach, which would keep the students on a “conveyor belt” to college. Canada’s approach was different from previous attempts to close the achievement gap because instead of choosing to open his program to all students in New York City and only be able to accept a small percentage of the students that apply, Canada chose to focus on a specific zone in Harlem and commit to fully supporting all of the students that lived in the chosen zone.
