Education is important for all of us. Good education has the power to change a persons life. It is crucial for our future and the future generations.

The importance of girl’s education is the key to several things. Girls who get proper education is more likely to make it a priority for their children. Making girls stay in school and getting proper education will decrease child marriage and child birth. It will also decrease population explotion because educated girls tend to have fewer, and healthier babies.

Sustainability is development that satisfies the needs of the present without compromising the capacity of future generations, guaranteeing the balance between economic growth, care for the environment and social well-being.

The Sustainable Development Goals are a call from the United Nations to all countries around the world to address the great challenges that humanity faces and to ensure that all people have the same opportunities to live a better life without compromising our planet.

Although every goal is important and have something to do with each other. In my opinion, goal number 1 concerning no poverty is one of the most important.

783 million people live below the international poverty line. Globally, there are 122 women aged 25 to 34 living in extreme poverty for every 100 men of the same age group.

10 percent of the world’s population live in extreme poverty, down from 36 percent in 1990. Half of people living in poverty are under 18. One person in every 10 is extremely poor.

Poverty is more than the lack of income and resources to ensure a sustainable income. It´s including hunger and malnutrition, limited access to education and other basic services, social discrimination and exclusion as well as the lack of participation in decision-making.

Another important goal is number two, regarding zero hunger.

Globally, one in nine people in the world today (815 million) are undernourished. The majority of the world’s hungry people live in developing countries, where 12.9 % of the population is undernourished. Asia is the continent with the hungriest people – two thirds of the total.

Nearly 151 million children under five, 22 percent, were still stunted in 2017, and more than 1 in 8 adults is obese.

Right now, our soils, freshwater, oceans, forests and biodiversity are being rapidly degraded. Climate change is putting even more pressure on the resources we depend on. It is important that we make a change and by 2030 not only end hunger but also do what we can to provide a sustainable future for all.

Studying abroad both has its pros and cons. Usually your time abroad is an amazing experience where you get to learn and do a bunch of new different things. You get to meet lots of new people and make new friends.

Studying abroad also has its challenges. You might miss your life back home and get quite homesick. At the beginning you could easily get lost and feel like an outsider.

It could take quite some time to adapt to the new country you are living in. To begin with you will probably be overwhelmed by everything you see and experience, but over time things will get better.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
