MATARIKI

1. What went well and why? 
People have been noticing Matariki as a public holiday more than a celebration every now and then.
2. What didn’t go so well and why?
New Zealand, as well as the people, haven’t been embracing it much and that’s what makes the government think is it really that important? YES, it’s part of the Maori culture.
3. If you were to do this again what would you do differently and why?

I would collect all the information that I’ve done over the years about Matariki and gather them to see the differences throughout the questions and my answers.

Child Trafficking

https://create.piktochart.com/output/45092071-child-trafficking

I chose this subject because it really interested me in how they had such power towards people. We had to take notes about each question before starting the presentation. We carefully looked at each website seeing if they were good questions to use instead of choosing random ones. I read them and took notes out of it and put them into some kind of paragraph. Each question shows how they did this or did that.

Iqbal masih paragraph story

Iqbal Masih was a Pakistani Christian boy who became a symbol of abusive child labor in the developing world. Iqbal attended school because it would help him speak for those who are still slaves. His courage is what allowed him to take action and his dedication lead him to fight against child slavery alongside. Iqbal's family were forced to sell him so their family could survive. He would work from early hours in the morning till late at night. He didn't much food either, it depended if he was lucky or not. There was no education and no time to have a break. When his mother, Anayt needs money for operations of family needs, she would take a loan out from the carpet factory owner. Iqbal ended up staying there for eight years. Until he was old enough to escape. His life was then taken by assassinations for speaking against child labor.

Human Rights

Igbal Name Meaning

Historically, surnames evolved as a way to sort people into groups - by occupation, place of origin, clan affiliation, patronage, parentage, adoption, and even physical characteristics (like red hair). Many of the modern surnames in the dictionary can be traced back to Britain and Ireland.
