This report presents a summary of findings from a series of climate risk workshops (CRW) including the main cropping systems supporting rural livelihood in Kampong Speu province in Cambodia. tI is one of the pilot provinces of the project 'Applying seasonal climate forecasting and innovative insurance solutions to climate risk management for the agriculture sector in Southeast Asia' also known as 'DeRISK Southeast Asia'.
The national assessment on the demand for climate services is a major activity under the project. The project cooperates with Regional Integrated Ooo Multi-hazard Early Warning System (RIMES), Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF), General Directorate of Agriculture (GDA), and Provincial Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (PDAFF) at the national and provincial level, as well as local farmer organizations and farmer cooperatives to provide the climate information to end-users..
This technical step should support further actions towards a climate services strategy for MAFF and defining efficient mechanisms to reach Cambodian farmers with weather-based advisories and the stakeholders' network for sustained service delivery. DeRISK Southeast Asia, with support from RIMES, MAFF's GDA, and PDAFF, is implementing field-level pilots for climate services delivery. This initiative aims to build evidence and provide support to the scaling process through implementing a pilot Local Technical Agro Climate Committee (LTAC) in Kampong Speu.

Applying participatory climate risk and livelihoods mapping to define users’ ...Soksophors yim
Participatory climate risk and livelihoods mapping provides specific information that is required
to deliver more salient climate services (CS) for farmers within the context of farm decision-
making.
• Each major cropping and livelihood system has different CS requirements in terms of their
temporal and spatial scale.
• The identification of relevant actors to tailor CS and building partnerships at the local level is
crucial to better define mandate, roles, and types of support that each actor can provide.
• It is important to consider the anticipated future changes in peoples’ livelihoods and zones
since these have important implications for designing CS-related programs and integrating the
CS agenda into the national or provincial climate change adaptation planning.

Participatory platforms enable the co-production process of climate services (CS) and provide an
opportunity to strengthen the link between the DoM and technical departments of MAFF through
regular exchange of climate information and understanding of the CS demand from agriculture
sector to develop tailored agro-advisories for planning and decision-making.
•
Effective dissemination of agro-advisories to last-mile users requires a combination of approach
(LTAC), enhancement of decision-support tool (CDT + SESAME), and utilization of various
communication channels (printed posters, Telegram, face-to-face meetings) compounded with
multi-stakeholder cooperation including government, private sector, NGOs, relevant programs and
farmer organizations, among others.
•
Collaboration with national hydromet center is critical for timely access to official seasonal climate
and short-term weather forecasts for the translation into agro-advisory. However, this necessitates
improved capacity of hydromet to provide reliable and accurate downscaled climate information
which entails further technical and financial support from government, potential donors, and private
sector cooperation to deliver agro advisory that is most appropriate to farmers’ needs on the ground.

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.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
