Oluyomi Ola-David Insights

Racial and gender troubles begin when we lose our sweet innocence to subtle pride. Human development slows when we sacrifice family-friendly policies for economic correctness.  Human conflicts persists when we give up childlike cooperative play for unfair competitive struggles. The human mindset stagnates when we sell off our childlike curiosity for the bread of ancient arrogance. Human vices escalate when we drop the baton of childlike contentment to run on greedy sprints. Our humanity wanes when we put out the childlike flames of hope for a cold stove of despair. The human race will blossom peacefully when we stay childlike and circular to save the planet.  Happy children's day to all Nigerian children and: ○ all who dare to remain children at heart; ○ all who esteem childlike love, hope, and faith; ○ all who care to save the children. #childrensday #circulareconomy #sustainabledevelopment #savethechildren #peace #wholesomeeducation #savetheplanet Photo credit: Lantern Books

The household economy is the cradle of development in all human societies. Whatever goes amiss or aright in the household economy tend to impact on the macroeconomy and extend to the global economy. As local and global governance institutions come to recognise the fundamental mechanisms of the household economy, care economy and their agents, they move to advance family-friendly policies and equality of opportunity in the interest of sustainable development. Given that inequities breed chaos, conflict, and stifle socio-economic progress, all households, corporates, governments, global institutions and their agents, should prioritise the vulnerable in day-to-day considerations and seek improvements in quality of life for all. The household economy is good business. #householdeconomics #decisionmaking #familyfriendlypolicies International Labour Organization #globalcompact Photo credit: Rowman and Littlefield
