(Let us make what we learned a life behavior ... we protect our village from diseases by our hands)
(Let us make what we learned a life behavior ... we protect our village from diseases by our hands)
The card (Environmental Guards), on which the words were written (Let us make what we learned a life behavior ... we protect our village from diseases by our hands)
It is the beginning of the path of Intisar Abdalbari Sharaf to protect her village, Masar Beit Al- Qans, of the epidemics that caused by the waste, as a result of implementing Emergency Cholera Outbreak Response project and in partnership with All Girls Foundation for Development, International Response Organization, Health Offices an awareness campaign to identify cholera, its causes and how to prevent it.
Manakhah District was one of the targeted districts in this project.
There is no doubt that the rural girl Intisar realized that everyone must preserve the environment, and waste is one of the main causes of environmental disturbance and pollution which range up to all environment elements.
There is no doubt that the simple girl of the rural Intisar realized that everyone must preserve the environment, and waste is one of the main causes of environmental disturbance and pollution which range up to all environment elements.
She did not realize the importance of preserving the environment silently!! , but did she did a favor of making Environmental Guards Card and distributed them to many children and women in the village, also, she explained to them how to collect waste and where to be placed then safely disposed of by burning, after that washing their hands by water and soap in the right way to prevent diseases.
Everyone responded to their village and was eager to get rid of or even reduce the horrific spread of epidemic diseases among their families. Children, women and youth all stick to the phrase they carried (Let us make what we learned a life behavior), so applying to reality made a significant impact on the cleanliness of their village and the beauty of the landscape.
(By our hands, we protect our village from diseases), If we focus on this phrase, we will find the psychological and societal motivation for the success of this campaign which made Intisar write her words in a way that created inside each one all those (the spirit of cooperation, sense of belonging, and the determination to save their village from all what may harm its people). These are expressions that at the beginning indicate the encouragement of a certain behavior and at the end the motivation for an action. It is a simple work, but its impact surprised many and and created the love of achieving in people's hearts, and created in everyone who worked in this project the spirit of giving.
Jabal Masar village, Manakha district is one of the villages that were reached Intisar’s great achievements after the Emergency Cholera Outbreak Response Project and in partnership with All Girls Foundation for Development, International Response Organization, Health Offices has implemented an awareness campaign to identify Cholera and its causes and how to prevent it.
We realized that great minds have goals but others have desires with this rural girl simplicity.
Although this girl could not control the cholera epidemic in her village, she realized that she could control her attitude to the disease.
We mentioned in the previous story, Environmental Guards Card, the role of Intisar, and the village's residents united together to collect and burn the waste. However, Intisar felt that this step lacked a major aspect and that it was necessary to think about where the villagers put their waste instead of throwing it in several places and re-assembling it.
From here Intisar began to think and found that she is a girl living in the village and cannot provide waste baskets.
Looking around here and there, finding the stones and trees and trying to meditate to find a suitable idea of what to do and finding nothing Until it is time to bring water from the remote places in that village.
Her friends came with yellow cans (10 - 20) liters, which the women used to bring water inside and suddenly, the idea of uprooting the top of the can and keeping it down to be used as a garbage basket.
Intisar began to implement her idea and distributed garbage baskets in several places in her villages Masar Beit Al- Qans and Jabal Masar and put a written paper on them (put the garbage here) in addition to distributing other things like (rice bags – sugar bags – flour bags) which called (shwal), in many corners of the villages so that collecting waste became easier and the villagers can find where to put their waste instead of throwing it in different places.
The people of the villages joined together and were impressed by this work, and everyone, every woman and every child who had waste found baskets everywhere.
It is a real achievement and meaningful work that we all are proud of.
This rural girl did not say (I cannot) or (how can I) and even did not grumble or meditate silently, but she believed that she had the strength and determination to make her always say (I can), so she made very amazing achievements by the available possibilities.
