PORA experts suggest training indigenous peoples of the North in entrepreneurship
“Representatives of the indigenous peoples of the North who are engaged in traditional types of economic activity need educational programs in the field of entrepreneurship…It was held in an online format and was devoted to the problems of the economic activities of the indigenous peoples of the North in their territories of residence and traditional nature management. It is necessary to move away from understanding traditional forms of economic activity as archaic…It is important to understand that areas such as reindeer herding use both modern technology and the export of goods, the expert said. At the meeting, representatives of the Arctic and subarctic regions identified problems and contradictions in the legislation that regulates traditional nature management…People who traditionally live in these territories most often do not have the means to compete with investors from other regions of Russia, who can also participate in the auction. It would be more appropriate to provide land on a competitive basis, supported by Zhanna Holm, deputy head of the Agency for the Development of the Northern Territories and Support of Indigenous Minorities of the Krasnoyarsk Territory…” #IndigenousStories -

History
When school number 22 was closed for the second time in my life, it was a shock for me. Imagine: one morning on March 14, I woke up and looked at the time "10:00 in the morning." Me: “What is happening? Why am I not at school? And my brother enters the room and asks me, as always: "Cho, have you been sleeping so long?" Am I so cho? Then mom comes and says: “Daughter, the school was quarantined again.” That day I did not know what this means (relatively recently, the school was quarantined, but only because of the flu in February). Then my family stayed at home for a month and a half ... then we all went outside, but for a while (half an hour) we walked a bit. we are sitting in the house again. You know, it’s scary, scary to realize that your life and the life of loved ones are in danger ((This is very, very scary. Constant threats to life. And yes, thanks to all the doctors, nurses and other people who are saving hundreds of lives right now ... -

Russia 2020. Our government decided that it’s better not to have “Emergency situation” and official quarantine. Russian citizens instead have “self-isolation”.In this case we all need to stay home, BUT no money were added to our accounts, no food provided from government or any kind of support at all. Instead, they decided that citizens without job, money and support need to pay fines every time they are on the street. What a great idea! And just before COVID-19 Russian Ruble felt dramatically because our government decided to have even more oil then before...Thanks again. Now we have: millions of poor people trying to survive, billioners get more money than before, government has more money from fines, but none spent on citizens, all small business shut down and have no chance to recover. In this situation any other country would help their own citizens. But Russia as a very generous country sent help to China,USA,Italy and other countries. Don’t worry, we don’t have sufficient quantity of doctors and medical resources, medicine in Russia will survive somehow. So would people. And everything after this pandemia...not going to change. Our country forgot about us. -

There was no plague
There was no plague whatsoever. The hospitals and clinics were closed and empty. In my city (Rostov-on-Don) we had some dozens of registered infected people, virtually noone was in a severe condition. Tests were 60% precise at most, so multiple tests were necessary, like 3. So that you will get a false positive result for sure. People were scared, 70% wore masks nd gloves. Citizens were forbidden to leave home, but we did not abide those rule, because everyone saw that they were unnecessary. I repeat one more time: no plague in South-Western Russia. -

Hopeless laziness
I want to tell you about my expiriense of covid-19 isolation. I'm a little man, 26 age, programmer, introvert, therefore, I endure isolation almost painlessly. At my student times I sat at home during weeks which served as a good preparation for the present situation. I almost don't suffer from a lack of live communication, becouse I have a lot of friends at web, and we can call to eachouthers every day and spend our time by playing computer games. But anyway I have one big problem via covid-19. It is a bigest procrastination. I want to change my job, and thereby need learn a lot of materials, but all this decadent atmosphere making me lost my time and procrastinating. This is horrible. Looks like this pandemic situation indulges to my lazy demons, becouse all people don't do nothing, therefore, I do the same. >_< . Or maybe I justify my laziness in this way. Any way, I know, that all this problems end, and life will return to it's course again. This pandemic don't scared me, but I learned that I must be ready to meet face to face situations, which I can’t influence in any way. -

Как бы это удивительно ни звучало, но моя жизнь никогда не была столь разнообразной. Хотя первые несколько недель новости о изоляции и вирусе повергали меня в уныние, хотелось лежать, смотреть сериалы и унывать. Но потом я поняла, что это надолго и я трачу время, которое стоило бы тратить на развитие. Раньше я много путешествовала и работала, дома только ночевала. Моим любимым занятием был макияж и подбор наряда каждое утро. Теперь же я всего этого лишилась и постоянно хожу в пижаме. Идея собираться и сидеть так дома, якобы это помогает настроиться на рабочий лад, явно не для меня. Когда ко мне пришло понимание того, что моя жизнь это теперь вот так (последняя из стадий принятия неизбежного), я смогла начать работать, писать диплом с невиданной доселе концентрацией. Более того, в освободившееся время я наконец-то начала читать образовательную литературу, рисовать, ухаживать за телом. Словом всё то на что не хватало времени раньше. Вернула домашние тренировки. Сделала квартиру уютным домом. Много готовлю и у меня это начало получаться, хотя раньше - никогда. -

*"The pandemic disconnected me and the person I got acquainted with..."
The pandemic disconnected me and the person I got acquainted with just before the lockdown in Moscow, but I know the meeting was crucial for both of us and was the beginning of something great in the future. The disease is stealing the time and the chances we could use to finally change our lives. But the worst part is that I have no opportunity to contact him and simply tell to be careful and stay home. Whatever I did to reach him, whenever I sent emails or whoever asked to tell him the thing, I got nothing. All my messages were ignored or made fun of and sent to trash bins. Probably good intentions are never good enough to be heard? It’s feeling like a glass cage-in the internet and globalisation century you can’t provide a person with a care, at least it could change things for the better for him? I wish I was aware if he is okay because no one knows when the pandemic will end and no one can be sure he will survive until it does. There was no day I didn’t recalled our meeting, feels like it wasn’t 4 months but just few hours ago. I was so eager to meet him again and discuss so many things we both like, I’m sure we’re meant for each other and finally our paths crossed. Now all I pray for is not to see his death on the news one day. I know that probably he even doesn’t remember me already but I don’t care. Imagine you cannot care of a beloved person and have no idea how he’s feeling and never do the same mistakes humanity is doing right now. If you’re the person who is able to help someone for good or have an ability to connect somebody, please, forget arrogance and disregard and help. Sometimes it’s not this difficult and doesn’t require too much effort from you, but could save life. Be kind. -
