#MotivationMonday Series - This week features a message from Melanie, Nosapo's Founder & Executive Director [About Nosapo's #MotivationMonday Series: www.nosapo.com/motivation-monday -LINK IN BIO-] “A kind of person that does the work we do, or any similarly passionate person emotionally and creatively involved in their work, understands that our passion doesn't flow only in one direction. When we are passionate toward what we create and activate, the same passion flows inward, so we feel hard and take in with equal passion. Just understanding that equality helps me to continue onward when I feel washed out from experiences, news and events, my own thoughts and emotions-which are sometimes the darkest obstacle, whatever it is. Another element that pushes me to continue when the world seems to be against itself, is just this-the conversation. It is what ignites when someone is heard, and knows they are being received, when they are asked what they need and want, in times when they may feel like they have been forgotten and left. Because it is when we stop talking to each other, when the communication ceases, that the marginalization of people silently swells. I have always ran in the opposite direction of "ignorance is bliss." Information is meant to be shared, used to spark and ignite. If you use your voice, you will burn, but not burn out. Receive passionately, put out in the same, and communicate for growth and change - then we will push forward, not get stuck, overwhelmed (or underwhelmed) with what is really happening around us.” . . #Work #Inspire #Create #Passion #spark #ignite #Motivation #NGO #NGOWork #HumanRights #equality #dignity #respect #movement #burn #flow #keepworking #keepgoing #dontstop #boss
#FridayFacts we wish we didn't have to explain after Italian authorities ordered the seizure of the migrant rescue ship, Aquarius, claiming that discarded clothes worn by the migrants on their voyage from Libya to Italy could have been contaminated by HIV, meningitis and tuberculosis. 1. You might be happy to learn: HIV cannot be transmitted through clothing - clothes cannot carry the virus because it dwells in bodily fluids. Also, the HIV virus dies when exposed to air. 2. Fortunately, meningitis bacteria are not spread by casual contact or even by simply breathing the air where a person with meningitis has been. 3. TB is ONLY airborne. You cannot get TB from someone's clothes, drinking glass, eating utensils, handshake, toilet, or other surfaces where a TB positive person has been. We wrote educational materials about Tuberculosis and HIV and you can view them alongside other healthcare resources we recommend here: www.nosapo.org/healthcare.

This #throwbackthursday we honor Malala Yousafzai. Four years ago, almost to this day, she became the youngest person awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, and we are inspired to highlight her today while she is here in Boston, speaking this evening at Harvard University's Institute of Politics at the Kennedy School. Thank you, Malala.

It's a rainy Sunday here in Boston, which calls for relaxing and reading. What are you reading? Take a moment for our most recent published research: www.nosapo.org/DRC [link in bio]. The “Democratic Republic of Congo Humanitarian Report” by Jeremy Edward Holt, featuring photography from @_claravela @leyuwera1 & Daniel McCabe, sets itself apart from Nosapo's other research, summarizing a complicated history and a present unpredictable at best, capturing the DRC's near-constant humanitarian emergency. #humanrights #research #photojournalism #photography #congo #drc #writing #journalism #migration #politics #refugee #asylum #africa #democraticrepublicofcongo #kivu #humanity #humanitariancrisis #advocacy #knowledge #read #reading #sundayreading #sunday

#throwbackthursday story: This little girl comes into Melanie’s yoga class at the Elliniko refugee camp in Athens, Greece. She is thin, unwashed, and small threads replace earrings in her pierced ears. She has a black eye. Melanie asks her what happened, and she points and says ‘papa.’ In the climate of a refugee camp domestic violence is not uncommon, and it often an issue unaddressed. Melanie explains, “the tension reverberates through every being in a camp. Being kept in space for so long, withheld from society and possibilities, opens a person to cause harm because they feel harm, neglect, and anger through their whole selves. The violence was not only men on women or fathers on daughters, it was also friend onto friend, child onto child, in quick violent outbursts that seemed unable to be controlled by anyone.” In spring 2017, Nosapo executive director, Melanie worked at the Elliniko refugee camp in Athens, Greece instructing daily yoga classes to women, and also children. #throwbackthursday #elliniko #greece #athens #refugeecamp #refugees #children #asylum #humanrights #abuse #violence #domesticviolence #freedom #refugeerights #eu #afghanistan #humanity #integration #dignity
