The document discusses learning in rural areas and proposes a governance model. It outlines four dimensions of learning: learning to know, learning to do, learning to be, and learning to live together. For each dimension, it lists strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities of rural learning environments. Intergenerational learning is presented as an opportunity across the dimensions. The document argues that a governance of learning in rural areas is emerging, driven by initiatives at the municipal level and learning-oriented regional development. It proposes that such a governance model could be strengthened by better coordination of initiatives and a strategic foundation based on analyses of strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities.Theodossis Georgiou Bio

High-level Meeting on Sustainable Transport - United Nations General Assembly...
High-level Meeting on Sustainable Transport - United Nations General Assembly...Christina Parmionova
Sustainable transport is crucial to address the special needs of countries in special situations by establishing and promoting efficient transport systems that particularly link least developed countries (LDCs), landlocked developing countries (LLDCs) and small island developing states (SIDS) more efficiently to international markets and global supply chains. Sustainable transport systems are also critical to empower vulnerable people, including by providing rural communities with access to major roads, rail lines and public and non-motorized transport options that enable access to economic and social activities. At the same time, accessible, affordable and sustainable transport services are still lacking in many parts of the world, especially in developing countries, constraining mobility and
connectivity to regional and global transport networks. Over 1 billion people still lack access to an all-weather road and adequate transport services. Even where transport
infrastructure and systems are present, they may not provide safe, affordable, and
convenient access for all, particularly for groups in vulnerable situations such as the women, children and youth, older persons, and persons with disabilities, with the poor
often spending one fifth of their income on public transport. Deaths and injuries from
road traffic accidents continue to rise, road traffic crashes kill approximately 1.3 million
people worldwide annually, with disproportionate burden falling on the healthcare
systems and economies in developing countries. Existing transport networks can also face challenges, such as congestion, poor maintenance, and lack of resilience to disasters, extreme weather events and climate
change. It was estimated that additional spending for roads is likely to amount to 2% of
GDP in low-income developing countries to meet the SDG objectives, which do not
include other components of sustainable transport, such as railways, ports, and mass
transit. There is a need to develop and enhance multimodal transport systems that fully utilize and integrate public transport systems, rail, maritime, inland shipping, ferry, and air transport, as well as non-motorized transport such as cycling and walking. Passenger and freight transport, with different stakeholders, require differentiated policy solutions and investment models. As maritime transport accounts for over 80%, by volume, of all global freight, it is
essential to support countries with the lowest shipping connectivity. These countries often face a vicious cycle, of low trade volumes that discourage investments in transport
connectivity, and low connectivity that makes trade even more costly and uncompetitive.
Problems Associated With Urban Noise Pollution
Urban noise pollution is increasing health risks and economic costs. Noise levels from transport have risen dramatically since the mid-20th century, with more people living in urban areas. This causes health problems that reduce productivity by 0.2-2% of GDP in the US and costs the EU between $13-38 billion per year. Traffic noise also depreciates property values near high noise levels. A study measured noise levels of different vehicle types at varying speeds to classify subgroups and determine average noise levels.

The Australian Textile, Clothing And Footwear Essay
Here are the key advantages and disadvantages of airplanes:
Advantages:
- Very fast mode of transportation. Airplanes can transport people and goods over long distances much faster than boats or trains. This saves a significant amount of travel time.
- Convenient for passengers. Flying avoids the hassle of long road or sea journeys, reducing travel time and fatigue. Air travel allows people to reach their destinations much more quickly and conveniently.
- Reliable for time-sensitive cargo. Perishable goods and other time-sensitive cargo such as documents can be transported reliably by air in a matter of hours rather than days. This makes air transport well-suited for these types of goods.
Disadvantages:
Greek Debt Crisis
Here is a draft essay on the democratic deficit in the EU:
The European Union (EU) has long been criticized for suffering from a "democratic deficit." This refers to the perception that decision-making power in the EU lies more with unelected bureaucrats and national governments, rather than directly with EU citizens through democratic elections and institutions. There is certainly some validity to this criticism, and efforts have been made over the years to address it, but the EU still faces challenges in fully overcoming the deficit.
One of the main sources of the democratic deficit is that the EU lacks a true European demos - a sense of shared European identity and public sphere. Most citizens still identify more strongly with their nation states than with the EU

Tunnel Safety
This document proposes regulations and procedures to increase safety when transporting dangerous goods through road tunnels. It introduces two models: 1) A quantitative risk assessment model that quantifies risks of transporting dangerous goods by tunnel vs road. 2) A decision support model that assists in determining restrictions on transporting dangerous goods through tunnels based on risk levels. It also examines measures to reduce risks and consequences of incidents in tunnels, such as traffic control, safety devices, and infrastructure upgrades. The models and measures aim to establish harmonized international regulations to facilitate compliance while improving tunnel safety.
Transport policy appraisal and decision making
The use of cost-benefit analysis to inform transport decision-making in the UK has its origins in the 1960s. Early methods like TAL focused on time savings from new road schemes. COBA, introduced in the late 1960s, was the first computerized cost-benefit analysis model used to assess both road schemes and the case for the Victoria Line underground project. In the 1970s, inquiries questioned the ability of cost-benefit analysis to adequately value environmental and heritage impacts. This led to the establishment of ACTRA to review appraisal methods, resulting in the "Framework Approach" which aimed to provide consistency across appraisal and address technical critiques.

The toolkit provides ideas and guidance for organizing local launch events to promote and support the goals of the Global Plan.
Safety of the european union transport system as a must have for Ukraine
The influence of the European Union (EU) on Ukraine can hardly be overestimated. Today, Ukraine’s development directly depends on the country’s integration into the EU and the adoption of European best practices. Of course, there are also imperfections in the EU. And where are they not? For countries like Ukraine (which are in their infancy), best practices are a chance for development. Such experience is invaluable. In order to adopt such a positive experience in the context of ensuring the safety of the transport system, it was decided to conduct additional research on this vector. The section discusses the main provisions for ensuring the safety of the EU transport system. A monographic review of research in the field of ensuring the safety of various modes of transport in the EU and in the world has been conducted. An assessment of safety indicators for different modes of transport in the EU has been realized. Impact indicators and safety measures for various modes of transport in the EU countries have been identified. Various safety management systems and EU programs, aimed at ensuring safety in rail, road, air and maritime transport have been described. New challenges to the security of the EU transport system through the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuring the competitiveness of different modes of transport, economic stability of market operators, compliance with environmental standards, etc. have been identified. The need to improve the infrastructure to ensure the safety of the transport system in the EU is pointed out. A combined safety management system for the EU transport system has been proposed and its key elements have been identified.

The models and measures aim to establish harmonized international regulations to facilitate compliance while improving tunnel safety.
Transport policy appraisal and decision making
The use of cost-benefit analysis to inform transport decision-making in the UK has its origins in the 1960s. Early methods like TAL focused on time savings from new road schemes. COBA, introduced in the late 1960s, was the first computerized cost-benefit analysis model used to assess both road schemes and the case for the Victoria Line underground project. In the 1970s, inquiries questioned the ability of cost-benefit analysis to adequately value environmental and heritage impacts. This led to the establishment of ACTRA to review appraisal methods, resulting in the "Framework Approach" which aimed to provide consistency across appraisal and address technical critiques.

Safety of the european union transport system as a must have for Ukraine
The influence of the European Union (EU) on Ukraine can hardly be overestimated. Today, Ukraine’s development directly depends on the country’s integration into the EU and the adoption of European best practices. Of course, there are also imperfections in the EU. And where are they not? For countries like Ukraine (which are in their infancy), best practices are a chance for development. Such experience is invaluable. In order to adopt such a positive experience in the context of ensuring the safety of the transport system, it was decided to conduct additional research on this vector. The section discusses the main provisions for ensuring the safety of the EU transport system. A monographic review of research in the field of ensuring the safety of various modes of transport in the EU and in the world has been conducted. An assessment of safety indicators for different modes of transport in the EU has been realized. Impact indicators and safety measures for various modes of transport in the EU countries have been identified. Various safety management systems and EU programs, aimed at ensuring safety in rail, road, air and maritime transport have been described. New challenges to the security of the EU transport system through the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuring the competitiveness of different modes of transport, economic stability of market operators, compliance with environmental standards, etc. have been identified. The need to improve the infrastructure to ensure the safety of the transport system in the EU is pointed out. A combined safety management system for the EU transport system has been proposed and its key elements have been identified.

Delivering the SDGs: the role of UN, Word Bank & other agencies
1) Several international organizations work to improve global road safety, including the UN which launched a Decade of Action for Road Safety and incorporated road safety into the Sustainable Development Goals.
2) The World Health Organization and UNECE help coordinate global road safety efforts and promote best practices, while the World Bank and other development banks fund road infrastructure projects and aim to improve road safety.
3) Despite progress, the global community still faces challenges in achieving the SDG target of halving road deaths by 2020 due to slow implementation of effective policies, inadequate funding, and safety issues in developing nations.

SBU Rethinkng HEd 2021.pptx
Developing cultural dexterity leads to cultural competence. Cultural competence — the ability to work effectively across a variety of cultures — begins as a conversation among people who see the world differently.
Developing dexterity with diversity does not just happen. We need social and educational experiences plus reflection on the experience to go beyond reliance on stereotypes. The Universal Declaration makes it clear that each individual must acknowledge not only “otherness” in all its forms, but also the plurality of his or her own identity, within societies that are themselves plural.
Understanding diversity embraces acceptance, respect, and empathy. It means we understand that each individual is unique and multi-faceted. This means understanding each other despite our differences. This is the most important dialogue we can have in the Boardrooms and University classrooms around the world.
Online courses and student collaboration
Groupwork can be very rewarding for both faculty and
students, or it can be disastrous! At their best, group
projects foster productive collaboration and idea sharing
among future professionals and that is the goal. At their
worst, team projects could force high achieving students to
compensate for those less willing to put in effort and that
is just unfair. It is up to us as educators to ensure the
former and not the latter outcomes.
Rethinking higher education
Our current conversations about Diversity are incomplete,
and too narrowly construed, without addressing Cultural
Diversity. New terminology - "plurality of diversity."

Panama update september 2012
Despite slower growth of 7.8% in September 2012 compared to 8.3% in September 2011, Panama is still expected to see double-digit economic growth for the year overall. Growth continues to be led by gains in construction and mining due to major infrastructure projects like the Panama Canal expansion and metro system construction. While some sectors like hotels, restaurants, and transportation saw gains from increased tourism and trade, manufacturing and fishing declined.
