COVID-19 has seriously tested the resiliency and sustainability of organisations, especially those in the nonprofit sector. The pandemic has further exacerbated their already precarious state and many Civil society organisations (CSOs) are under immense pressure to operate, survive, and thrive, while maintaining independence and continually generating funds to pursue planned operations and command strong recognition and influence.
They have been forced to adapt or to abandon the game, to face adversity through innovation or to fail while trying. Organisational and individual preparedness to manage change was tested also and many had to unlearn and relearn, to find new ways of working and developing resilience amidst the pandemic.
Since financing is a key pillar of organizational sustainability, I was invited to strengthen participants understanding, knowledge and practice in mobilizing resources more creatively. Aside the traditional channel of funding, there are 12 proven models of mobilizing resources for any civil society organisations in Africa, no matter its size, staff or strength.

Understanding Local Government Cultures: Practical Partnering for Civic Engagement
Local government plays a central role in many dialogue and deliberation projects, as host, client or essential ally. Yet, officials may have mixed results from past public engagement experiences, skeptical colleagues, political constraints, limited staff and budgets, and higher priority responsibilities. How can we understand their realities and be more effective partners in what’s often a change management process? How can we assess the need and opportunities for culture change to promote more local public participation? Findings from candid interviews with local officials.

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

1. Workshop 2:
A Vision For Empowerment –
Young People’s Participation
David McWilliams: Head of Youth
Services Nottingham City Council
2. Aim:
Stimulate discussion and thinking …
• Explore how services will rise to the challenges
set out in Aiming High for Young People
• Look at potential empowerment opportunities
within Integrated Services to support
participation. through; Governance,
Volunteering, Decision Making, Inspections,
Empowering Young People Pilots, Grant giving,
commissioning and Citizenship
3. Making the links…
The Ten Year Strategy provides the framework for
progressing the 4 key challenges identified within Youth
Matters, July 2005.
• Empowering Young People: Things to do and places
to go
• Young People as Citizens: Making a contribution
• Supporting Choices: Information, advice and guidance
(IAG)
• All Young People Achieving: Reforming targeted
support
4. Youth Matters - Next Steps, March 2006.
The ‘vision’ for how the four challenges would be met through a range of
innovative projects, initiatives and reforms including;
• Youth Opportunity Fund (YOF) and Youth Capital Fund (YCF)
• Volunteering: A new charity “V”
• Targeted Youth Support: (Targeted Youth Support – A Guide,
published March 2007)
• Connexions Transition
• Reforming financial support for 16-19-year olds
• Things to do and places to go: a new legislative duty placed upon
local authorities to secure young people’s access to sufficient
positive activities and to provide information on the ‘local offer’ to
young people
• Positive Activities for Young People: providing diversionary and
developmental activities for young people at risk of social exclusion
during the school holidays.
5. Key Extracts from Aiming High for Young
People or what the government believes
When young people have the opportunity to influence
services they are more likely to find them attractive and
to access and benefit from them.
More marginalised young people can find formal
processes unappealing and will need additional support to
influence provision.
Communities can also play a powerful role in improving
and raising the priority of youth support services in their
area
6. “Support young people to take their place as valued
members of society”
Establish a number of pilots to explore how young
people can design and organise of events to
celebrate their transition to adulthood
Explore the potential of a ‘Youth Week’, in
celebration of young people’s achievements.
7. “Increase participation by putting more resources and
responsibility in young people’s hands”
Extend the Youth Opportunity and Youth Capital Funds until at least 2011,
with additional resources for projects in the most disadvantaged
communities
Encourage Local Authorities to build on the success of the Youth
Opportunity and Youth Capital Funds by giving young people greater
influence over resources – 25% of spending on youth activities and
facilities by 2018
Invest in supporting young people to set up sustainable projects delivering
positive activities to other disadvantaged young people
Invest in a National Institute of Youth Leadership to support young people’s
ability to bring about change more widely.
8. “Empower more marginalised young people to have
influence”
Expect all Local Authorities to adopt good practice
in engaging young people
Invest over the next three years to see more
young people from deprived neighbourhoods
trained and supported to champion the views and
needs of young people.
9. “Empower communities to improve services for young
people”
Expect ward councillors to be responsive to young
people’s needs
Expect Local Authorities to ensure that young people,
parents and communities know how to mobilise and use
the Community Call for Action to improve youth services
Encourage Local Authorities to bring young people and
adults together to address common issues
10. The challenges are…
• Young people to design and organise events to celebrate their
transition to adulthood
• Giving young people greater influence over resources – 25% of
spending on youth activities and facilities by 2018
• Supporting young people to set up sustainable projects delivering
positive activities to other disadvantaged young people

13. Community Call For Action
The Police and Justice Act (2006) establishes a 'Community call for action‘
Mechanism in relation to community safety. Several other central government
departments are also exploring proposals.
A councillor may become aware of an issue causing concern to the
community. In this situation the councillor should be able to trigger a response
from service providers. Service providers must consider the matter raised.
They must state what action they will take or explain their decision not to act.
