DECALOGUE: ANE AND UNAI

Ane Etxarri and I have done a Decalogue for the project about poverty and social exclusion.

The aim of this Decalogue is to encourage people to help to improve this situation (poverty and social exclusion). We came up with some ideas and then we have chosen the best ones. As it is a Decalogue, we put 10 ideas.

We have dicided the work in two parts: Ane, thought of five ideas and I thought of other five. Not only do we took some ideas about our classmates but also we surfed the internet, where we found out opinions of a lot od people. Based on that, we have taken advantage of it and built up other concepts.



Below, you will find these ten ideas listed above with the name of "WAYS TO IMPROVE".

EUROPE IN MY CITY

Where do I see Europe in my country?
Well, there are many places which could be related with Europe, however, I think that this place is the one which fits the best:





This sign is located on Mount Igueldo where everyone can see it, it reminds us that in 2016 San Sebastian will be the cultural city of Europe: DSS2016EU ( Donostia-San Sebastian 2016 European Union)

5. WRITE ARTICLES FOR THE MEDIA
An article to the local and national newspapers about homelessness in our community is a grat way to spread the word, and to personalize the matter with statistics and facts that hit close to home. So that they would educate others.

6. PUT UP ADVERTISEMENTS FOR THE CITIZENS
If you want to educate your fellow students, try getting approval to hang posters with facts and statistics about homelessness and poverty around your school's campus and adding ideas for ways to take action.

7. ANYONE MUST DISCRIMINATE
 It is also essential not to discriminate those who are at risk of poverty. The society tends to be afraid of homeless who are sleeping in the street and don't have the chance to have a shower or eat something everyday. However, instead of leaving them behind we should take action.

8. MAKE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE SITUATION & HELP
They should raise the awareness of people about how critical the society's situation is nowadays. There is a huge number of people in need who should be helped. So, in order to give an end to this detrimental situation, taking part in NGOs would be undoubtedly a great idea. We can all volunteer and try to emphasize with them.

9. BUILD REFUGES
To build refuges for evicted people and in general for poor people. 


10.POLITICIAN CONTRIBUTION
Politicians should increase the help that poor people receive by increasing the taxes of rich people. Morover, they ought to change the law of evictions. If a family is evicted they must leave them living in their house for a while.
6. Organize a Rally
A rally is great way to raise awareness about homelessness in your community. A large gathering of people shows solidarity for a cause, and is a great way to get the attention of the media, businesses, local legislature, and other concerned community members. - See more at: http://www.jewishinseattle.org/programs-initiatives/focus-fight/resources/12-ways-fight-poverty#sthash.erxBFXWV.dpuf
