Self and Social

If there a future there is a time for mending - Time to see your troubles coming to an ending. Life is never hopeless however great your sorrow If you are looking forward to a new tomorrow. My wife Matanjali made this art on floor. If there is time for wishing then there is time for hoping - When through doubt and darkness you are blindly groping. Though the heart be heavy and hurt yoy may be feeling - If there is time for praying there is time for healing. So if through your window there is a new day breaking - Thank God for the promise, though mind and soul be aching. If with harvest over there is grain enough for gleaning - There is a new tomorrow and life still has meaning. Collected from i - inspire,  published in i-Next, Ranchi, 3rd April 2010.

Counting everyone is an integral part of ensuring that we take everyone into account. Good demographic data is critical for planning schools, health systems and public transportation, for designing policies based on future population projections, for monitoring the effectiveness of service delivery and much more. This year World Population Day highlights the importance of data for development. The focus is on the 2010 round of the population and housing census, data analysis for development and UNFPA’s lead role in population and development. Reliable data makes a difference, and the key is to collect, analyze and disseminate data in a way that drives good decision making. The numbers that emerge from data collection can illuminate important trends. What striking situation does research reveal in your country? What do the numbers tell you about progress toward meeting the MDGs? Are certain groups getting left behind ? http://www.unfpa.org/public/site/global/lang/en/world-popul...
