...Q. How should Christian Youth Dress? Ans: In today’s society cloths and dresses play an important role. We often look a person and form an opinion from the way he/she is dressed. Everybody knows that we Are judge by our looks and how we dress a so we try to look as attractive as possible. Most of as fell good when we are dress well and uncomfortable when we are not. I believe everything we do reflects our inner values and attitudes. Therefore our dress will surely reflect what we are. A sincere Christian Youth will not want to wear clothes that are too tight or that expose more of the body or which is not right outfit. Now a days, many young people seem to forget how to dress for Church. They dress for church as if like they are going for evening parties or discos. Some girls wear very tight and short skirts that they are unable to sit comfortably and some of the youth go to church to advertise their latest fashionable wear. It is always better as a Christian youth to reflect the image of Jesus Christ not the actors or the actresses or the fashion modellers. I am not saying that we should not wear our dress in style. It is important that we should dress in style but modestly. Being dress appropriately for church is a good practice.

...vital because social change has a crucial role in the promotion of human rights and social justice that leads to sustainable peace (Conner and Strobel, 2007). It is one of the factors which are important to determine whether a country is in progress. Social change as define by wikepedia.com as an alteration in the social order of a society. It may include changes in nature, social institutions, social behaviors, or relations. As to developing countries young people are often key actors in powerful social movements that transform the course of human history. Certainly, youth have been deeply important to every progressive social movement like: successive waves of feminism, environmentalism and environmental justice, the labor, antiwar, and immigrant rights movements, and more. In each of these cases, young people took part in many ways, including through the appropriation of the “new media” tools of their time, which they used to create, circulate, and amplify movement voices and stories. Youth participation in social change can provide us with important insights. Young people can be powerful agents of social change. Many young people have the desire and capacity to transform the world, and are looking for opportunities to do so. In fact, youth have been key actors in nearly every major social movement in modern history. ( Sasha Costanza-Chock, 2012) Youth are the building blocks of a nation.

To be on an even field of play, according to Oracle Education Foundation-ThinkQuest; Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises). This happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature, termed as Greenhouse effect. Recent events have emphatically demonstrated our growing vulnerability to global warming. Global warming impacts range from affecting agriculture, further endangering food security, to sea-level rise and the accelerated erosion of coastal zones increasing the intensity of natural disasters, species extinction, and spread of vector-borne diseases. This issue is...

...The role of Globalization of Social Construction of Youth Culture Introduction The purpose of this paper is to address the role in which globalization plays in the social construction of youth cultures. The phenomenal impact of communication technology on youth culture has generated a continuous debate since the 1970’s (Andrew, 2003, p. 1). The emergence of youth culture was a result of consumer market, which created diverse styles for young people worldwide (Grixti, 2008). Since the introduction of globalization, there has been a dramatic change in youth culture causing a greater shift within societies. As globalization rapidly changes, the world becomes more complex place for young people (Bourn, 2008). Therefore, a significant number of youth globally are having difficulties identifying themselves and finding their sense of belonging in this world (Bourn, 2008). Sociologist has provided strong evidence that globalization on youth culture has not only contributed positively to society but also have negative impact on the current global youth (Kahn & Kellner, 2002). To outline the aforementioned statement, the scope of this essay will confine on youth culture and the influential paradigm that contour youth cultural globally. The theoretical perspective such as post-modernism will be explored to provide a depth understanding of cultural studies. Altogether, this discussion examines the impact of globalization on communication technology and music and fashion industry...

...Research proposal Title: The role of cobblestone on youth unemployment reduction in Adigrat city Adigrat UniversityCollege of Business and Economics Department of Management/ MBA by Amanuel Teklu Aregawi teklu Dawit Hagos Berihu Gebremeskel 1.INTRODUCTION Cobblestones are small, chiseled rectangular stones formerly used to cover road surfaces ,typically either set in sand or similar selected material, or are bound together with mortar. Paving with cobblestones allows a road to be heavily used all year long and not getting muddy in wet weather or dusty in dry weather. Cobblestones set in sand have the environmental advantage of being permeable paving, and of moving rather than cracking with movements in the ground. INTRODUCTION con’t It was in early 2005 that the concept of using cobblestones to construct roads was first introduced to Ethiopia. Faced with fast-growing cities, inadequate urban infrastructure, and a large youthful population in need of employment, the Ethiopian Government turned to an innovative solution: Cobblestone road production throughout the country, driven by community participation and local materials. In recent years, cobblestone road creation has become one of the most successful infrastructure and job creation programmes in the country, with tremendous benefits for the urban poor. It has created hundreds of thousands of jobs, greatly improved urban mobility, and built collaborative relationships between communities and local...

...connection of the world and its people” – is perhaps nowhere more visible than in the changing nature of the relationship between the world’s youth and their sense of identity (Solomon & Scuderi 2002:13). It has become commonplace to think of the world’s youth as that part of the community who are most receptive, or, alternatively, susceptible to, foreign cultural practices. If childhood means acceptance, and adulthood means conservatism, youth means rebelliousness. Youth are seen as the part of society that is most likely to engage in a process of Cultural borrowing that is disruptive of the reproduction of traditional cultural practices, from modes of dress to language, aesthetics and ideologies. From Japanese punk to Australian hip hop, youth subcultures are seen as being implicitly rebellious, born as much from a desire to reject the generation that went before them, as from an identification with what they have become. Exactly how accurate this widespread impression may be is difficult to assess. What is certain, however, is that the age of globalization, more than any other age before it, is an age that has both exerted great effects upon, and been greatly affected by, young people. Adolescents undergo the process of identity formation as one of their foremost development challenges. This paper addresses what role the mass media play in this process. One avenue of exploration would be to examine how the media can impact the adolescent’s perceptions...

...As Mishna et al. point out lesbian and gay youth can experience victimization across their entire social ecology potentially leaving them with no supportive relationships to rely on (Mishna et al year). This lack of supportive relationships and role models for LGBT youth “likely increase heath and behavioural risks”, and that establishing supportive relationships with “peers, family members or other caring adults” could potentially reduce the “impact of stigma and shield LGBT youth from negative health risks (Bird, Kuhns Garofalo). Of particular significance for LGBT youth may be the “other caring adults’ that may serve as role models for LGBT youth who may lack supportive relationships with peer and family due to the stigmatization of LGBT identities. Bird, Kuhns and Garofalo suggest that role modelling is “an important factor for adolescent development and a critical factor in reducing risk and increasing protective factors for healthy development” (BKG year). They also identified that the effectiveness of these relationships depend on role models who have concern for the youth’s wellbeing and LGBT identity, and one “who is...

...the factors that lead our youths to commit crimes and what can we do to prevent and rehabilitate them to keep them from committing these crimes again. Juvenile delinquency is one of the most important issues around the world today. Despite the social awareness surrounding the topic, juvenile delinquency is on the rise and needs to be addressed in order to stop our youth from becoming criminals instead of important members of society. There have been many efforts to understand and analyze the reasons that juveniles commit crimes however there is no set reason, but rather several reasons that can lead a youth to commit crimes. Recent research shows that violence among juveniles is rising rapidly and shows that more than 60% of youths will have either been a victim or will have committed a crime sometime during their youth years (Garza, 2011). Research has also stated that the crime rate among juveniles has increases rapidly since the 1980’s and in 2009 youths were responsible for more than 2 million violent crimes in the United States (Garza, 2011). At the same time however, justice systems are quick to distribute punishment to the youths in order to control the youth population and their increasing crime rates. These tactics however are proven to be inefficient as punishment may lead to further criminal activity and exposure to a criminal career. What many people have tried to figure out and understand is what the factors are that lead our youths to...
