MPCE Data: Aesthetic Appeal with Substantial Insights
T K Arun MPCE data accounts for just 49 per cent of the consumption reported by GDP estimates. The destination weddings, designer clothes, fancy dining and wining, and exotic holidays probably remain Instagram posts, without finding mention in answers to pesky surveyors. To suggest rural-urban consumption gap has narrowed is to expect grown-ups to believe in fairytales, but state-wise numbers…

I gotta say, really glad that the main criticisms for my "artists have more options" post has been that it is very USA centric and doesn't work for people in low populated areas without an art community. This has led to people giving more perspectives and options, which is always appreciated, and also because it's a completely correct criticism. Like yeah it is in fact made from the perspective of a USAmerican who lives in a highly populated state with a thriving art community especially in rural areas, you got me there, can't argue with that, gimme some fresh perspectives I love to hear that. Thank you for not making my notifications hell, and thank you for giving me more perspectives im going to give you a little kissy on the forehead
#simon says#i was worried that since it hit 10k notes#I was gonna deal with a lot of people with low confidence getting mad at me bc 'they are too much of a failure to do this how dare you'#but im so glad because it hasn't been that#it has been people bringing up good counterpoints and perspectives I appreciate hearing!#like yeah I knew it was gonna end up being US (and probably Canada) centric because I'm American and never left the country before#so my perspective on career artistry outside the country is very VERY limited to say the least#but I didn't even consider that my perspective is also skewed by where in the US I live#I live in Florida which I mentioned before and feel safe mentioning because it's a very populated state#and a majority of the economy is tourism based#so there's a pretty huge thriving art community here because there's LOTS of people visiting who want cool art for whatever reason#and LOTS of retirees with money to spend and a new florida house to decorate#and LOTS of college age kids without money but an apartment they wanna furnish so they'll buy art anyways#shows and shops and gallery work are huge here for a reason#5 percent of the entire population are snowbirds. people from the north who live here during the winter#so needless to say it's far easier to start making art selling prints and handmade magnets at a booth for a weekend event here in Florida#compared to say... rural Nebraska#so I didn't even consider that because my journey as an artist started in a state with a small but passionate and growing art community#and my journey as a PROFESSIONAL artist started in another state that has a large and thriving art community even in rural areas#that it would absolutely have an effect on my perspective#i still believe there's always more options out there than you would believe and it's always good to explore and look#and if you're able to start building an art scene in a place that doesn't have one you should#but I definitely understand some folks better when they say that it's not always accessible to do so#art careers are not about fame or social media following but rather networking I still believe that because it's true#but yeah if you're in an area where your only option IS to sell online there's no shame in that#anyways hopefully that was coherent I just woke up from a nap and now im gonna play Frog Detective for the first time#smooching you all on the foreheads gently and lovingly thank you for opening my mind and not making my inbox hell

“SEE 'SIT-DOWN STRIKE' IN EDUCATION SYSTEM,” Toronto Star. April 10, 1942. Page 3. ---- Canada's High School Students "Half Asleep." Rev. J. G. Endicott Says ---- COMPARES CHINA ---- Canada's high school students look half asleep to Rev. James G. Endicott of Toronto, missionary and teacher, who was born in China and lived most of his life there. 
"In China the high school boys would tear you to pieces with questions if you went into their classroom," Mr. Endicott told delegates at the Ontario Educational association.
"It strikes me that a good deal of our education in the fat and complacent democracies is something in the nature of a sit-down strike," he declared. 
Mr. Endicott appealed for a better appreciation of China's people and China's problems. He said the peoples of Asia are not satisfied that the great western democracies are truly concerned with their fate.
A request that the department of education require all public school teachers to have medical examinations at regular intervals didn't receive unanimous endorsement from the public school department. D.. M. Davidson, of Ryerson school, Toronto, termed it "too expensive a means of detecting a very small number of cases of poor health among the teachers." 
Ross R. McKay of Hillsburg, was elected president of the public school department; past president, Miss Edna Moore, Toronto; vice-president, Miss Edna McCallum, London, Ont.; secretary, E. H. Stephenson, Toronto: treasurer, R. G. Elliott, Toronto. Charles Michael and Miss Lucy Dobson were named a special committee to draft a new constitution for the public school department.
"You can teach a dog new tricks," said Dr. E. A. Corbett, speaking at the trustees section on adult education as it is being extended in rural areas across Canada. "Your education never tops, and those old adages I quoted are now myths." 
He said 200,000 rural Canadians were now reached by the adult education program. "People who were being exploited are now looking after their own affairs," he said, citing Nova Scotia fishermen as an example. Following the war, there would have to be a planned economy. to bring in a better order and end such problems as unemployment. he declared.

Indian Rural Economy: A Closer Look at the Issues - IMPRI Impact and Policy Research Institute
Arun Kumar The rural economy is complex, consisting of industry, services, and agriculture. But these activities are largely in the unorganized sector with incomes lower than those in the urban areas. That is why, in spite of around 70 percent of the nation’s population being rural, its contribution to the GDP is far smaller than that of the urban areas. There is also greater distress due to…

Lack of digital infrastructure risks leaving millions of poor rural families in poverty.
The International Day of Family Remittances 2021 observance (16 June) - Lack of digital infrastructure risks leaving millions of poor rural families in poverty
Despite a massive 65% increase in migrants sending money home via digital transfers in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of their rural family members struggle to access mobile banking services which could help lift them out of poverty. On the International Day of Family Remittance (16th June) the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) is calling on governments and the private sector to urgently invest in digital infrastructure and mobile services in developing countries to ensure rural families are not left behind.

Tourism and Rural Development: A Policy Perspective.
Tumblr media
Tourism has high potential to stimulate economic growth and social change in rural areas because it contributes to local economies, support other products value chains, distributes benefits across both seasonal and geographic grounds, and promotes the conservation of cultural and natural heritage. Through the UNWTO Tourism for Rural Development Programme, the Organization seeks to enhance these and other opportunities that tourism can bring to rural areas. To devise adequate actions and develop impactful initiatives, it is essential to have solid knowledge and data to help support and monitor the evolution of this important agenda.
