Some more hints about his whereabouts…

It’s not simple to know where the Little Peacekeeper is from his last post. But this picture should make it a little easier to guess. Do you know which country he is visiting now? While the Little Peacekeeper is out traveling the UN pays tribute to the UN peacekeeper’s work and sacrifices. Learn more about that here: http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=34842&Cr

Mind the gap – gap minder

We talked about the Millennium Development Goals but how do we measure them? And how do we measure other things that matter? How do we find out what needs are where? The Little Peacekeeper is minding the gap at the station and the Gap Minder (http://www.gapminder.org/) is a very fascinating way to explore development data – try it!

Relaxing at the lake

It’s summertime and the Little Peacekeeper relaxes a bit at the lake. As a post scriptum to his last post he found a website called The MDG Monitor (http://www.mdgmonitor.org/) there he can find out how countries are progressing in achieving the MDGs.

Are we on track?

Well the answer is easy. The Little Peacekeeper is on track(s) – quite literally as you can see (and don’t worry, those tracks don’t carry trains any longer). But are the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) on track? Find out more: http://www.undp.org/mdg/

Out in nature

It’s so nice to be outside these days so he spends some time in nature. While looks over the landscape he is thinking about the latest State of the World’s mothers report (http://www.savethechildren.net/alliance/what_we_do/every_one/news.html). Do you know the top 3 countries in this report? And the bottom 3? Check the link to find out.
