Poverty  is  not  having enough material possessions or income for a person's needs.  Poverty   may include social, economic, and political elements. Absolute  poverty is the  complete lack of the  means  necessary to meet basic personal needs, such as food, clothing and shelter. Sustainable development is the organizing principle for meeting human development goals while simultaneously sustaining the ability of natural systems to provide the natural resources and ecosystem development upon which the economy and society depend.

Sustainable development can be defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Goal 1: No poverty Putting an end to poverty in all its forms remains one of

Last Week Thursday’s review. Last week Thursday 31st October, 2019, students from various departments were assembled at the school’s car park for a fire drill training around 11:30am by the Ghana Fire Service.

Afterwards he made students try it out as well so they could get the experience. The link below is for more details on fire drill and some safety measures. https://www.wikihow.com/Act-During-a-Fire-Drill

I am Theodora Coleman, a final year student of Radford University College studying Advanced Photography. The main purpose of taking photographs is to capture life moments, to make those moments last,to be able to remember them and to share with others. Photography is a process. Every step involves decision making about the placement of objects,appropriate settings and the right light and color setting.  As a graphic designer I manipulate photos to communicate an idea so I want to build my photography skills which can lead to a better design, improve my composition skills and how elements relate in an image.
