The document discusses how Canadian policy toward East Timor evolved from 1975 to 1999 to support Timorese independence and self-determination. Initially, Canada followed its allies' pro-Indonesian lead in the 1970s-80s. However, Canadian civil society groups and NGOs promoted alternative policies focusing on human rights, eventually influencing Ottawa to make independent decisions in the 1990s and push other countries to also back Timorese self-rule ahead of its 1999 independence vote.

Apartheid
Apartheid was a system of racial segregation and discrimination enforced through legislation by the National Party government in South Africa between 1948 and 1994. It was intended to separate the races and keep political and economic power within the white minority. Some key aspects included classifying people by race, restricting the rights of non-whites, and promoting Afrikaner nationalism. Apartheid faced opposition from leaders like Nelson Mandela and was eventually abolished, leading to South Africa's first democratic elections in 1994 and the establishment of a non-racial democratic state under a new constitution.

Apartheid was a system of racial segregation in South Africa between 1948 and 1994. It was established by the National Party to maintain political and economic power for white South Africans. Under apartheid, non-whites were subjected to racial discrimination and oppressive laws that restricted their movement and economic opportunities. The anti-apartheid movement led protests and campaigns against apartheid, with leaders like Nelson Mandela, Steve Biko, and Desmond Tutu calling for its end. Apartheid officially ended in 1994 after F.W. de Klerk legalized the ANC and released Mandela from prison, paving the way for multiracial democratic elections which saw Mandela elected as the first black president of South Africa.

Apartheid laws separated society and denied non-whites political rights, restricting where they could live, work, and attend school. The African National Congress and leaders like Nelson Mandela fought against apartheid through protests and strikes. International pressure and internal uprisings eventually led to the end of apartheid and South Africa's first democratic elections in 1994, which elected Nelson Mandela as president.

East Timor
East Timor experienced civil war in 1975 between Fretilin and UDT, followed by Indonesia's invasion and occupation later that year. In 1999, after East Timorese voted for independence, Indonesian-backed militias rampaged through the country. Australia led an international peacekeeping force to stabilize the situation. In 2006, there was another political crisis over grievances in the military, though the situation was again stabilized with Australian support. Maintaining stability in East Timor remains important for Australia due to potential security and economic impacts of further conflict in its neighbor.

Apartheid in south africa
Apartheid was a system of legal racial segregation and discrimination enforced in South Africa between 1948 and 1994. It aimed to maintain white minority rule and protect white domination over non-whites in all aspects of life. Under apartheid, black South Africans were forced to live in separate areas, use separate facilities, and had limited job opportunities based on their racial status. Resistance to apartheid grew through protests, boycotts, and uprisings led by groups like the African National Congress, which made the country ungovernable and eventually forced the white government to dismantle apartheid and shift to democracy. The policies and forced separation of apartheid still impact South African society today.

Global health - history of an idea
The League of Nations Health Organization (LNHO) was created in 1920 to establish an information system to help manage epidemics by sharing accurate data between countries, reaching two-thirds of the world's population. However, some governments like Britain saw standardized health information as a security threat. The World Health Organization (WHO) was formed to take a broader view of health as physical, mental, and social well-being rather than just the absence of disease. The WHO helped eradicate smallpox by 1979 but still struggles with malaria. It takes integrated approaches and multi-sector responses to address health issues beyond borders like the 2014-15 Ebola emergency response in West Africa.
The United Nations system & malaria
The United Nations system has worked with countries around the world to help eradicate malaria through various public health initiatives and interventions over decades. Projects in countries like India, Cameroon, Liberia, and El Salvador involved establishing malaria control teams, spraying DDT and other insecticides, developing anti-malaria drugs, training local health workers, and conducting surveillance and research - with the goal of reducing malaria infection and transmission rates. International organizations like WHO, UNICEF, and later ONUC provided technical and material assistance to support national malaria eradication programs.

There's no such thing as a lost cause
This document discusses East Timor's long struggle for independence from Indonesian occupation between 1975 and 1999. It provides quotes from Canadian officials in the 1970s and 80s who viewed East Timor's incorporation into Indonesia as irreversible, while East Timorese activists argued the occupation was illegal and could be reversed. The document outlines how East Timorese refugees and student activists in Canada worked to raise awareness of the human rights situation in East Timor. Ultimately, East Timor won its independence in 1999, ending over two decades of occupation and genocide, showing that campaigns for justice and self-determination can overcome long odds.
Life stories, wife stories
Presentation at Women and World Order conference. Global Affairs Canada, March 2019.
Diplomacy is the work not only of professional diplomat, but also that of out Canadians working for other international agencies like the United Nations and by wives and secretaries and servants and stenographers. Women, as wives, became diplomatic assets necessary to the success of men’s development work in the middle decades of the 20th century. This chapter traces episodes from the life of four women who were unconventional diplomats: Barbara Cadbury in Ceylon and Jamaica; Beatrice Keyfitz in Indonesia and Ceylon; Beatrice Harding in Indonesia and the Philippines; and Eleanor Hinder at UN headquarters and in the Soviet Union. These case studies illustrate the vital importance to diplomacy of “caring labour” and social duties, whether in national capitals or in field settings, while also revealing women’s agency and the importance of personal ties in diplomacy.

The power of suffering: International narratives of the Timor-Leste independ...
Timorese independence was often cast as a “lost cause” because of the unequal power relations at play. Indonesia was one of the world’s largest countries, with high influence regionally and globally, backed by most of the powerful states in the international community: so much so that it could drop Soviet-supplied napalm from American-supplied aircraft in 1983, a rare sign of superpower cooperation. Timor-Leste was tiny, with few weapons, backed only by relatively powerless outside forces: former Portuguese colonies in Africa and marginalized non-governmental activists in Western countries. Nevertheless, the weaker party managed to win a diplomatic victory by building “soft power” through its use of secular languages of human rights and Catholic themes of martyrdom.

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Mapping canadian solidarity activism
- 1. Challenge the Strong Wind recounts the evolution of Canadian government policy toward East Timor from 1975 to its 1999 independence vote. During this time, Canadian civil society groups and NGOs worked in support of Timorese independence activists by promoting an alternative Canadian foreign policy that focused on self- determination and human rights. After following the lead of pro-Indonesian allies in the 1970s and ’80s, by the 1990s Ottawa had yielded to pressure from these NGOs and began to make its own decisions, eventually pushing like-minded countries to join it in supporting Timorese self-rule.
