LAST MINUTE HEALTH QUESTION!!
Could anyone help me out with these last minute questions?

1. Explain one reason why DFAT provides funding to non gov organisations?
2. When asked why a NHPA has been included, is it enough to say *Obesity carrys a large amount of costs? Or, Cardiovascular disease has large rates of mortality associated with it. <-- is that enough? or does it need more info?
3. Also when asked to describe a program that COULD be implemented, do we HAVE to make up a program? Or can we use one that is already existing, such as a program by World Vision!

Thanks!

Hi when writing the Australian Aid Initiatives, do we need the full name especially when the case study doesn't even talk about other factors.

For example
Case study about farming.

Do we need to write agriculture, fisheries and water or can we just write agriculture.

Do we also need to write the full name like Building Resilience: Humanitarian assistance, disaster risk reduction and social protection?
Or is just building resilience better.

I'm pretty sure we have to write the whole name

1. Non government organisations are more able to implement specialised programs and work closely with communities and use their skills to better carry out their programs compared to DFAT on there own (or something like that, I might be wrong.)

2. Id say it depends on how many reasons the question is asking for or how many marks it’s worth. If it’s just one reason then that should be enough but you can also say things like how both of obesity and CVD are mostly preventable, have high prevalence, and stuff like that

3. I honestly have no idea but I always use programs that are already existing because an existing program can easily be implemented in other countries to address the same thing. That’s what my class has been doing and I dunno if making up programs would be considered correct or not

I was told that we have to include the full name. Either way it’s better to write the full name and not risk losing the mark. Best to do full name to be safe

when mentioning determinants e.g behavioural determinants and saying something like 'males are more likely to have higher rates of mortality due to taking part in risky behaviours.' do you have to explain why they are more likely to take part in those behaviours or can you just say that?

last min q!!
for questions asking about programs that 'could/may' be implemented, can we make it up? my teacher told us that we can, but last year's exam report had the same question but said to talk about actual programs

you could make it up if you wanted to. However, examiners recommend that you use the programs that you learnt and name them (as it gives it context).

Really need help:
I can link health to human development and I can link human development to sustainability. Easy.

I can’t link health to sustainability. I mean every time I’ve done it I’ve gotten full marks but I don’t really understand how. I still get told to use education to link them but like how does education mix with health.
I really don’t think I’m explaining this well, but to me education is something I use to link human development to sustainability, not health to sustainability.

Could you just say that if current generations have lower rates of a disease then future generations will also have lower rates?

Hey! You could say something along these lines:
- blah blah program provides wells to a village to allow them to access safe water. If these sources of clean water are maintained, this resource can be utilized by future generations ( sustainability). This can help both immediate and future generations stay free from water-borne diseases such as diarrhoea and cholera (physical health)
- Children who are free from disease (physical health) are able to attend school. This may allow them to obtain meaningful employment in the future and earn an income. This income can be passed onto future generations (economic sustainability)

Explain how two countries can have a similar income (GNI per capita) but a quite different HDI.

Can someone please explain this to me? Desperate

This question is basically about explaining the other indicators of the HDI. You could say something like this:
One country may have a higher life expectancy/mean years of schooling/expected years of schooling compared to the other; resulting in an increased HDI despite their similar GNI
Depending on your mark allocation, add more indicators.
Hope this helps!
