VIOLENCE
• Violence social and legal concept
that, in the broadest sense, refers
to any abuse—including physical,
emotional, sexual, or financial—
between intimate partners, often
living in the same household. The
term is often used specifically to
destignite
physical assaults upon women by
their male partners, but, though
rarer, the victim may be a male
abused by his female partner, and
the term may also be used
regarding abuse of both women
and men by same-sex partners.

• Estimated annual figures for the
number of women in the United
States who are subjected to abuse by
a male partner range from two to
four million. Additional statistics
indicate that domestic violence ranks
as the leading cause of injury to
women from age 15 to 44 and that
one-third of the American women
murdered in any given year are killed
by current or former boyfriends or
husbands. Males may also be victims
of domestic violence, although
instances are both less common and
less severe.

UNEMPLOYMENT
• The term unemployment refers to a
situation where a person
actively searches for employment but is
unable to find work. Unemployment is
considered to be a key measure of the
health of the economy.
• The most frequently used measure of
unemployment is the unemployment
rate. It's calculated by dividing the
number of unemployed people by the
number of people in the labor force.
• Many governments offer unemployment
insurance to certain unemployed
individuals who meet eligibility
requirements.

• While the definition of
unemployment is clear, economists
divide unemployment into many
different categories. The two
broadest categories are voluntary
and involuntary unemployment.
When unemployment is voluntary, it
means that a person left their job
willingly in search of other
employment. When it is involuntary,
it means that a person was fired or
laid off and must now look for
another job.

CLIMATE CHANGE
• Climate change induces both
immediate mental health issues, like
anxiety and post-traumatic stress,
and long-term disorders due to
factors like displacement
and disrupted social cohesion.
Recent research attributes 37% of
heat-related deaths to humaninduced climate change.

EXPLOITATION
• Exploitation is a concept defined as, in
its broadest sense, one agent taking
unfair advantage of another agent.When
applying this to labour (or labor) it
denotes an unjust social relationship
based on an asymmetry of power or
unequal exchange of value between
workers and their employers. When
speaking about exploitation, there is a
direct affiliation with consumption in
social theory and traditionally this would
label exploitation as unfairly taking
advantage of another person because of
their vulnerable position, giving the
exploiter the power.

HOMELESSNESS
• Homelessness or houselessness
– also known as a state of
being unhoused or unsheltered –
is the condition of lacking stable,
safe, and functional housing. The
general category includes disparate
situations, including;
• living on the streets, also known as
sleeping rough (primary
homelessness)
• moving between temporary shelters,
including houses of friends, family,
and emergency accommodation
(secondary homelessness)
12

• living in boarding houses without
a private bathroom or security of
tenure (tertiary homelessness)
• not having access to permanent
or secure housing[
• internally displaced persons, who
leave their domiciles because of
civil conflict and
are refugees within their
country's borders

POVERITY
• Poverty is a state or condition in
which one lacks the financial
resources and essentials for a certain
standard of living. Poverty can have
diverse social, economic,and political
causes and effects.When evaluating
poverty in statistics or economics
there are two main
measures: absolute poverty compares
income against the amount needed to
meet basic personal needs, such
as food, clothing, and shelter; relative
poverty measures when a person
cannot meet a minimum level of living
standards compared to other places .

SUBSTANCE ABUSE
• It occurs when you use alcohol,
prescription medicine, and other
legal and illegal substances too
much or in the wrong way.
Substance abuse differs from
addiction. Many people with
substance abuse problems are
able to quit or can change their
unhealthy behavior. Addiction, on
the other hand, is a disease

DISCRIMINATION
• Discrimination is the process of
making unfair or
prejudicial distinctions between
people based on the groups,
classes, or other categories to
which they belong or are perceived
to belong,such
as race, gender, age, religion, physi
cal attractiveness or sexual
orientation. Discrimination typically
leads to groups being unfairly
treated on the basis of perceived
statues based on ethnic, racial,
gender or religious categories.

INQUALITY
• Social inequality is the condition of
unequal access to the benefits and
rights of society. In a purely equal
society, every citizen is equally able
to contribute to the overall wellbeing
of that society, and they are equally
able to benefit from their
membership within that society.

MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
• Mental health disorders affect a
large percentage of the United
States population. According to
the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, more than 50% of
Americans will be diagnosed with
a mental health condition in their
lifetime. As a result, most people
have either experienced these
disorders themselves or know
someone who has, making mental
health a pressing social issue.

CHILD MARRIAGE
• The devastation of child marriage
effectively ends a girl’s childhood.
How? Forced marriage robs a girl
of her education and more,
replacing lessons learned in the
classroom with adult
responsibilities, including forced
pregnancy, well before she’s
ready. This not only violates her
rights, but risks her life, the lives of
her children and the future of her
community.

• Tragically, about 40 million girls
worldwide are currently married or in
a union – and without our help, an
estimated 150 million girls will be
married in the next decade. This is
unacceptable.
• Read more about the issues, Save the
Children’s impact – and how you can
help end child marriage.
• Girls married young are far less
likely to stay in school, with
lifelong economic impacts. They
are often isolated, with their
freedom curtailed. They are at
higher risk of physical and sexual
violence.

OVERPOPULATION
• Overpopulation can lead
to overcrowding, poverty, food
insecurity, and other social issues.
This can create tension between
communities and countries as
resources become increasingly
scarce. Overpopulation leads to an
increased demand for housing, food,
and resources, which can lead, among
other things, to deforestation. We lose
approximately 10 million hectares a
year. This results in the loss of animal
habitats and exacerbates climate
change by reducing the amount of
carbon dioxide that can be absorbed
by plants
