WEEK 3- ISLAM AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (TO BE GRADED)

UNGS 1201 WEEK 3 ( TO BE GRADED) ISLAM & SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT     Sustainability is not a new concept in Islam. But, how ignorance we are to not really realize about this? Al- Qur'an and Hadith already stated so much regarding the concept of sustainability. In previous class, I got to know how actually sustainable development concepts can be apply from the slightest of our daily routines as a Muslim. Islam focused on 3 points of sustainability for society, environment and also economy. From my previous notes, I have pointed a lot on togetherness where Islam already told us the concepts by strengthening brotherhood between us and being in a team to work for each others benefit with the concept of shura as everyone have different minds and leaded by someone who can bring everyone towards one goal ( caliphs). For environmental sustainability, I got to preview how much waste I made all my life from just letting the water runs from the faucet every time I take ablution ( wud...

WEEK- 2 INTRODUCTION TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (TO BE GRADED)

 UNGS 1201 WEEK 2  INTRODUCTION TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT     It is fascinating for me to know how people started to care more about the sustainable development that widen from MDGs  which focus more to to SDGs that involves most of the countries in the world.

WEEK 1- INTRODUCTION TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (TO BE GRADED)

 UNGS 1201 WEEK 1 ( TO BE GRADED ) INTRODUCTION TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT     Being introduced to a new concept that I was not too concerned about in the past, sustainable development concepts opened my eyes on how big of a problem we had in this world and the solutions people are working at could not succeed because of this one factor, people. I was able to see more of this factor in my Introduction to Communication class. It was not suprising when I found out how big of the difference in the size of Earth compared to Saturn. This tiny little dust (compared to Saturn) is loaded with creatures with egoism bigger than the whole universe. I can confirm my own view when I got group assignments from my classes. Almost in every group, I could find someone who does not care about the importance of doing the group project together. If in this small project people can't be one to make the project a success, what do we dreaming about to make the sustainable development successful...
