The document proposes establishing a radio station to address the spread of Ebola in affected areas of Africa by combating misinformation, deforestation, and the virus itself. The radio station would broadcast general information about Ebola, environmental issues, and outbreaks to foster awareness and allow communities to take preventive action. Radios are a feasible option as most households in rural Africa own one and literacy can be low, while internet is unreliable. Establishing trust in the station would involve familiar local leaders providing information and a hotline for community questions.
Responses to wildlife crime – how do the research findings compare to wider t...IIED
This is a presentation by Dilys Roe, biodiversity team leader of the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED).
It compares the project research findings on how best to reduce wildlife crime in Uganda, to international work on engaging with local communities to reduce wildlife crime. The project is the three-year project ‘Building capacity for pro-poor responses to wildlife crime in Uganda’.

A focus on exploring opportunities to make quantifiable impact is critical, she said, speaking during meetings with staff where she emphasized on the importance of institutional visibility of our program and the impact we are making globally for purposes of keeping ICRISAT perfectly positioned as we move into the future and as we transition into one CGIAR.
Challenges and opportunities for Infonet-Biovision on mobile phonesChristoph Hess
Infonet-Biovision (www.infonet-biovision.org) is a corner stone of the Biovision Farmer Communication Programme (FCP) in Africa. The programme is supported by Biovision Foundation, a Swiss non-profit organization with the mission of sustainably improving life for people in Africa while conserving the environment as the basis for all life. The FCP pursues a theory of change which postulates that ecologically sustainable solutions are a practical alternative for African farmers to achieve good crop yields without using expen-sive chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Mobile and web technologies are important for the FCP because the change process can benefit from these tools. We expect that In-fonet-Biovision on mobile phones can lead to socio-economic development in terms of food security (through enhanced sustainable agriculture), income generation (from diver-sified quality products and no expensive chemical fertilizers and pesticides) and gender equality (resulting from individualized access to information). In an ongoing, exploratory project we have developed the beta version of an Android application for Infonet-Biovi-sion. We are also working on a mobile browser version of the website. In this paper we present an assessment of challenges and opportunities for this project which are related to technology (operating systems, technology literacy, devices, data), design (usability, user experience, participatory design and customisation), content (quality, media, user generated content) and the roll-out (target groups, adoption, partnerships).

Topic Ebola under EpidemiologyThis topic interests me to a grea.docxedwardmarivel
Topic: Ebola under Epidemiology
This topic interests me to a great extent because Ebola has been a deadly menace, ravaging the African continent and the world in general. According to World Health Organization (2015) the virus has so far claimed the lives of approximately 10,000 people. In addition, there is no single licensed vaccine to protect people against the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) even though there are various vaccines which are currently in development through clinical trials. New Ebola cases are being reported each and every day and unless something is done fast, the disease will continue to pose a threat to human life. It is therefore important to understand the various aspects of this lethal virus in order to continuously take proper precaution against it.
The Audience
The paper will target community members who do not have an in depth understanding of the Ebola Virus. It will help to dispel any existing myths and misconceptions relating to the illness. By doing this, the community members will also be able to understand the steps that are being taken by the government through agencies such as C.D.C to prevent and control against the Ebola virus by training medical responders as well as airport crew and workers. This will calm them down and hence avert the risk of a panic situation in the area; incase an individual from the community is suspected of being infected with the virus. Community engagement is the key to controlling outbreaks by applying a set of interventions such as contact tracing, social mobilization, proper lab practices and surveillance. It is therefore important to educate the community members adequately on all aspects of the virus in order to lessen casualty in case an outbreak occurs in the area.
Learning Objectives
This paper will sensitize individuals on the symptoms associated with Ebola. It will also equip the audience with measures that can be undertaken if they suspect a friend or a family member to be infected by the virus. In addition, the paper will explore various matters relating to the origin of the virus. This will enhance their knowledge of the topic. By doing this, the audience will be enlightened enough to pass the correct information to other people around them. Sensitizing community members about the Ebola virus will also ensure that they understand the severity of this outbreak and come up with ways that can be used to aid the worst hit countries.
Project Forum
The project will be in an article form characterized by captioned photos, graphs and charts to add depth to the topic.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

9. PURPOSE
People follow rules when they are
informed of the risks and how it affects
them.
Centered our pitch on spreading
awareness to allow people to take
immediate action.
With our radio station, we believe that we can
foster engagement, acceptance, hard work, and
leadership in affected communities. A decrease in fear level will prevent false
rumours from arising, and allow them to come
face-to-face with the virus with a healthier and
prepared mindset.
