Healthy People 2010

Before Bill Clinton left office, he authorized 2001 an 84% increase in the government's investment in nanotechnology research and development, National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) http://clinton4.nara.gov/WH/New/html/20000121_4.html and made it a top priority.

This governmental increase has been combined with non-governmental organizations (NGO) and grant programs. These NGOs have been creating partnerships with existing governmental agencies and masking initiatives as Federal and State grant reward programs. They are not.
Here, at the CDC is an overview of what is called, Healthy People 2010 http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/otheract/hpdata2010/abouthp.htm .

As you can see from www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/otheract/hpdata2010/abouthp.htm, the initiative is driven with 28 different categories. All of these categories have grant award programs that are awarding monies through various agencies to promote a ‘healthy initiative program'. Some of the programs alone, sound harmless. When they are tied together though, they are disturbing.

Former President Clinton's budget for his NATIONAL NANOTECHNOLOGY INITIATIVE is fueled by funding from the National Nanotechnology Initiative, National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Energy and the Department of Defense in combination with private and nonprofit funds from non-governmental organizations.
These funds now make available monies for grant projects for:

Focus Areas at a Glance (28)

Access to Quality Health Services
Arthritis, Osteoporosis and Chronic Back Conditions
Cancer
Chronic Kidney Disease
Diabetes
Disability and Secondary Conditions
Educational and Community-Based Programs
Environmental Health
Family Planning
Food Safety
Health Communication
Heart Disease and Stroke
Immunizations and Infectious Diseases
Nutrition and Overweight
Injury and Violence Prevention
Maternal, Infant, and Child Health
Medical Product Safety
Mental Health and Mental Disorders
Occupational Safety and Health
Oral Health
Physical Activity and Fitness
Public Health Infrastructure
Respiratory Diseases
Sexually Transmitted Diseases -STD
Substance Abuse
Tobacco Use
Vision and Hearing


An association, state, or company applies for the grants to fund these initiatives

In turn they authorize a Freedom of Information Release to all their data. This is a sample of the data collected from a grant application. All the data requirements are the same, the only difference is the partnered agency that is acting as a liaison for relaying the data. Example, this one below is using the USDA as the partnered liaison. If this was a hospital application, it would say the CDC.

Healthy People and the Earth Charter





Motion in support of the Earth Charter at the IUCN World Conservation Congress
17 - 25 November 2004

Location: Thailand

The 3rd IUCN World Conservation Congress will be held from 17-25 November 2004 in Bangkok, Thailand. The Congress will be the key event of the year to address the world s most pressing challenges of environment and development.

At this meeting the UICN Council will present a motion on the Earth Charter in which they are asking the Congress to endorse the Earth Charter and consider it as an ethical framework for their policies and programs, as well as an instrument for education on sustainable development, among other things.

Additionally, on November 18th the Earth Charter Initiative will celebrate a side event at Plenary Hall 2 from 7 to 8:30 pm. This Conservation Platform is titled: Healthy People on a Healthy Planet: is ethics the missing link? The missing link in our efforts to improve human health, reduce poverty, and further conservation, is an ethical framework that promotes integrated solutions and motivates social change. This platform will consider the role of ethics and the Earth Charter in promoting such integrated decision-making, policy and programs.
