The document defines and provides examples of rural and urban environments. Rural environments are located outside of cities and towns with low population density and limited services, where agriculture and other land-based industries predominate. Examples given include subsistence farming in Tibet and extensive cattle farming in Australia. Urban environments are located within towns and cities with high population density and abundant services. Patterns of global urbanization show the highest levels in North America and parts of Europe and Asia, with the lowest levels in Africa and Oceania. Push and pull factors that influence migration between rural and urban areas are also discussed.
Urban Planning: Settlement size, pattern and structure as a function of socio...Ashutosh Mishra
WHAT IS SETTLEMENT ??
A settlement is a place where people live.
A settlement could be anything from an isolated farmhouse to a mega city (settlement with over 10 million people).
Settlements can either be temporary or permanent.
Temporary settlements include things such as refugee camps.
Some temporary settlements have become permanent over time, (the largest in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil).
The reason why a settlement developed in the first place is said to be its function.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Australia is home to around 40% of the world’s uranium reserves and currently supplies around 20% of the
global market.
From 2000 to 2005 nearly 50,000 metric tonnes of Uranium oxide were exported from Australia to eleven
different countries. This brought over A$2.1 billion dollars to the Aust. economy

6. FAVELA, RIO DE JANIERO (BRAZIL)
• Favelas were the place where former slaves with no land ownership and no options for work lived. Over the years,
many freed black slaves moved in.
• Most modern favelas appeared in the 1970s, due to rural exodus, when many people left rural areas of Brazil and
moved to cities.
• Residences are built without permission or a license and are often disorganised, without numbered streets,
sanitation networks, electricity, a telephone service or plumbing. In recent years favelas have been troubled by
drug-related crime and gang warfare. 6
7. RURAL & URBAN ENVIRONMENTS

density, few buildings/homes and limited businesses/services.
Agriculture is the primary industry in most rural areas, although other
human activities may include forestry, tourism, mining, fishing.
Settlements: hamlets, villages, towns
Rural regions differ because of geographic characteristics
• Relief
• Climate
• Human activities
• Social characteristics e.g. culture, wealth

• Pastoral farms: rear animals e.g. lambs, dairying cows, llamas
• Intensive farming: farms with a high level of input such as labour, fertilisers
and pesticides to achieve a high output (yield per hectare)
• Extensive farming: farms with a low level of input and output per hectare, e.g.
cattle station
• Subsistence farming: farming family consumes what is produced and any
surplus is sold or bartered.
• Commercial farming: farms that sell a majority of their produce

13. SUBSISTENCE FARMING IN TIBET (CHINA)
Tibet is the highest region on earth, with an average elevation of 4,900 metres.
The economy of Tibet is dominated by subsistence agriculture; due to limited arable land, the primary
occupation of the Tibetan Plateau is raising livestock, such as sheep, cattle, yaks, camels and dzo.

Uranium has the potential to be a highly dangerous substance when not treated in the proper manner, remaining radioactive for hundreds of thousands of years. Uranium mining in Kakadu could permanently damage the environment in Kakadu, as well as the sacred Aboriginal sites which have been part of the local culture for tens of thousands of years
