Sylvia Wachira - Adf 7 climate change and youths presentation
This document discusses the impacts of climate change on African youth and the response from African youth. It notes that climate change is negatively impacting key youth employment sectors like agriculture, increasing health issues, and driving rural to urban migration. To respond, the African Youth Initiative on Climate Change was formed to raise awareness and establish national chapters. However, African youth efforts face challenges like lack of inclusion in decision making, inadequate funding, and limited access to information and capacity. The document calls for specific actions like dedicating funding to youth climate programs, ensuring youth representation in negotiations, and reporting on the status of African youth and climate change.

The document summarizes key statistics about the human resources and demographics of the Philippine population. It finds that the population is approximately 76.5 million as of 2000, with women making up 49.5% and men 50.5%. About 48% of women aged 15-49 are engaged in gainful activities such as labor, farming, and services. The population is distributed with 37% aged 0-14, 57% aged 15-59, and 6% aged 60+. The unemployment rate is estimated at 8.1% in 2006, with many senior citizens and youth still actively participating in the workforce, though some remain underemployed.
Gender Empowerment
This document provides background information on literacy and education in Egypt from 1980 to present. It discusses Egypt's large education system and high illiteracy rates, especially among women. In the 1980s and 1990s, the government and organizations worked to address illiteracy through programs and laws. Rates declined from 49.4% to 34.2% during this period. The 2000s saw continued work but details are not provided. Organizations like USAID, UNESCO, and AUEED implemented programs to increase access and quality of education, particularly for girls and women. Educational programs have led to social and economic improvements for women in Egypt.

A five year follow-up strategy for the Beijing + 15 regional review outcomes and related events was presented on Tuesday by the African Centre for Gender and Social Development (ACGSD) at the 7th Session of the Committee on Women and Development (CWD). The overall objective of this strategy is to provide concrete actions in order to accelerate the implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action (BPFA) and to address the gaps, limitations and obstacles that have been identified.
The four-day-meeting on gender equality and women’s advancement opened on Tuesday morning at the Headquarters of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia with more than 100 experts in the field of women empowerment in attendance. The presentation took into consideration seven critical areas for Africa to focus on in order to facilitate the implementation of the BPFA. They include Economic Empowerment of Women; Peace, Security and Development; Violence against Women; Representation and Participation of Women in Decision-making; Sexual and Reproductive Health; Climate Change and Food Security; and Financing for Gender Equality.
“We must all work as a team, because this is not only about women machineries,” said Elizabeth A. Eilor, Social Affairs Officer at the African Centre for Gender and Social Development (ACGSD), who presented the lessons learned from the BPFA and the proposed strategies. “We must all put our heads together, come up with a way forward and act now or never,” she urged. With regards to Economic Empowerment of Women she pointed out that one of the lessons learned is that “Microfinance is not a magic bullet” and does not cause social and economic transformation.
The proposed strategies in this field include investments in infrastructure; provision of legal literacy at all levels to ensure that women know their rights; and access to credit and enhanced employment creation. In the field of Peace, Security and Development emphasis was made on bringing justice to those who violate the human rights of women and girls. This, it was noted should be done in accordance to international laws. In addition, the presentation underscored the need for effective reintegration of ex- combatants. “The use of the media is very critical, especially when it comes to the public’s understanding of women’s rights,” Eilor said. A reception to launch the Multi-Sectoral Approach to Women’s Rights in Africa Manual, took place later that evening according to ECA’s Information and Communication Service. Ends.
Africanyouthreport 09
This report analyzes key issues facing African youth, including education, employment, health, and political participation. It finds that while primary education enrollment has increased, access to further education remains limited. Even those who complete school often lack skills demanded by employers. As a result, many youth struggle to transition from school to decent work. The report also examines health challenges like HIV/AIDS and lack of youth involvement in policymaking. It concludes that concerted efforts are needed across many areas to expand opportunities for African youth and promote broader development goals.
Women in-public-life-from-policies-to-impact
The High-Level Conference Women in Public Life : From Policies to Impact is jointly organised by the Supreme Council for Women in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the MENA-OECD Governance Programme.
The conference aims to :
Promote gender mainstreaming in public and private life for inclusive growth;
Take stock of the progress made in implementing the regional recommendations included in the OECD-CAWTAR report “Women in Public Life: Gender, Law and Policy in the Middle East and North Africa”;
Shift the debate from a focus on strategies to one centred on achieving impacts;
Review the legal settings, policies, conditions and institutional capacities for gender mainstreaming in the MENA and OECD region.
Main challenges to achieving Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015
The report emphasizes that coherent economic and social policies as well as targeted programmes are needed to achieve MDG objectives and refers to good practices in a number of UNECE countries, including Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Georgia, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Montenegro, Poland, Republic of Moldova, Russian Federation, Serbia, Tajikistan, The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Turkey and Ukraine.
The report also highlights a number of human development challenges which are specific to countries with transition economies. They include rising inequalities, setbacks in social protection, comparatively low male life expectancy and unprecedented migration flows. Moreover, the newly independent States emerging from the former Soviet Union and Yugoslavia have encountered additional problems of nation-building and for many of them this has been accompanied by regional tensions or large-scale conflicts, affecting deeply the human capital and cohesiveness of their societies. A characteristic of the Eastern part of the pan-European region is the discrepancy between the seriousness of these problems and the governance capacity to address them. Pursuing actively institutional reforms according to the principles of a participatory political and social system, and a market economy therefore constitutes an overall challenge for most of these countries.

Gender and social justice in development in kenya; mgd 170 - Njoroge Kamau
1) Women in Kenya face numerous social and economic challenges including high rates of gender-based violence, lack of access to healthcare and education, and underrepresentation in political and economic decision-making positions.
2) Key issues include female genital mutilation, physical and sexual violence against women, lack of access to antenatal care and skilled birth attendance, and open defecation practices that negatively impact women's health.
3) Traditional patriarchal attitudes have limited women's participation in leadership and prevented them from owning land and businesses, perpetuating poverty especially in female-headed households.
United Nations E-Government Survey 2014
E-government—digital interactions between governments and people—varies greatly among and within regions, but most countries are making progress on providing greater access, according to the 2014 UN E-Government Survey launched today. The findings show that the Republic of Korea tops the global e-government ranking, and that Europe remains first among regions.
The report also shows that many countries are expanding electronic participation, utilizing more mobile and social media tools, expanding usage and making more government data available online. However, challenges remain, such as lack of resources, digital inequalities and a lack of leadership for e-government.
“E-government holds tremendous potential to improve the way that governments deliver public services and enhance broad stakeholder involvement in public service,” said Wu Hongbo, Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs and Secretary-General for the International Conference on Small Island Developing States.

Road safety management capacity review
1) Road safety has become linked to broader sustainable development goals like reducing poverty and achieving the Millennium Development Goals. The large health and economic losses from road crashes makes safety a priority in low and middle-income countries.
2) A goal has been set to stabilize and reduce forecast road fatalities in low and middle-income countries by 2020, which could save 5 million lives. Indonesia and East Java face a growing crisis of death and injury on roads.
3) Strong institutional leadership, strategy, and accountability are needed to improve safety. A lead agency should have a clearly defined focus on results and coordinate multi-agency partnerships to achieve safety goals.

Liberalism And Secularism May 2009
FAN Malaysia Replication of IAF seminar on Liberalism and Secularism.
Mr. Ong Khang Woon attended the seminar on Liberalism and Secularism at the International Academy for Leadership in Germany in October 2007. Similar to all IAF alumni, he offered to replicate the seminar in order to share what he learned from the academy to local audience. He said that “apart from knowledge sharing, the replication also aims to raise awareness and relate the topic “liberalism and secularism” to local context”.
The seminar provided basic information on the concepts of Liberalism and Secularism followed by the relationship between the two concepts. The presentation was followed by video presentation titled “At the Crossroads – Malaysia” which focused on conversion and conversion related issues like child custody, enforcing public morality and the legal systems in Malaysia.
Discussion during the group work in the afternoon was fruitful. There was a good combination between theoretical background on the topic and how one can apply the concepts in the current situation.
FAN Malaysia was formed in March 2006 after the first alumni meeting held in Kuala Lumpur. The main aim of FAN is to promote liberalism through replication of training and other activities.

2011 The Millennium Development Goals Report [United Nations]
2011 The Millennium Development Goals Report [United Nations]Office of Trade Negotiations (OTN), CARICOM Secretariat
This document provides an overview of progress toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals. It highlights that lives have been improved through reductions in poverty, disease, and mortality. Key accomplishments include reducing malaria deaths by 20% worldwide, increasing access to HIV treatment by over 1.2 million people, successfully treating 41 million tuberculosis patients, and increasing access to clean drinking water for over 1.8 billion people globally. While progress has been made, more work is still needed to fully achieve the Millennium Development Goals by 2015.MDGs 5&6
The document discusses the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) agreed upon by 193 United Nations member states in 2000. The eight MDGs aimed to reduce poverty, hunger, disease, and gender inequality by 2015. Specific targets included reducing maternal mortality and halting the spread of HIV/AIDS. While progress has been made in some areas like increased antenatal care, maternal mortality remains high in some regions. The UN and other organizations have undertaken initiatives to assess needs, promote women's rights, and provide treatment access to advance the MDG targets by the 2015 deadline.
Road safety management capacity review
1) Road safety has become linked to broader sustainable development goals like reducing poverty and achieving the Millennium Development Goals. The large health and economic losses from road crashes makes safety a priority in low and middle-income countries.
2) A goal has been set to stabilize and reduce forecast road fatalities in low and middle-income countries by 2020, which could save 5 million lives. Indonesia and East Java face a growing crisis of death and injury on roads.
3) Strong institutional leadership, strategy, and accountability are needed to improve safety. A lead agency should have a clearly defined focus on results and coordinate multi-agency partnerships to achieve safety goals.

Liberalism And Secularism May 2009
FAN Malaysia Replication of IAF seminar on Liberalism and Secularism.
Mr. Ong Khang Woon attended the seminar on Liberalism and Secularism at the International Academy for Leadership in Germany in October 2007. Similar to all IAF alumni, he offered to replicate the seminar in order to share what he learned from the academy to local audience. He said that “apart from knowledge sharing, the replication also aims to raise awareness and relate the topic “liberalism and secularism” to local context”.
The seminar provided basic information on the concepts of Liberalism and Secularism followed by the relationship between the two concepts. The presentation was followed by video presentation titled “At the Crossroads – Malaysia” which focused on conversion and conversion related issues like child custody, enforcing public morality and the legal systems in Malaysia.
Discussion during the group work in the afternoon was fruitful. There was a good combination between theoretical background on the topic and how one can apply the concepts in the current situation.
FAN Malaysia was formed in March 2006 after the first alumni meeting held in Kuala Lumpur. The main aim of FAN is to promote liberalism through replication of training and other activities.
united nations
The United Nations was created at the end of World War II to maintain international peace and security. US President Franklin Roosevelt envisioned the UN Security Council's "four policemen" - the US, UK, USSR, and China - enforcing this. When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, the UN Security Council passed resolutions demanding Iraq's withdrawal and imposing sanctions. Further resolutions authorized force if Iraq did not comply, leading to the Gulf War coalition expelling Iraq from Kuwait. However, the UN has been limited by veto powers and lack of own military forces, and was largely ineffective in responding to crises like the Rwandan genocide.
Post structuralism & deconstruction in cultural studies
Post-structuralism and deconstruction provide a new approach to interpreting language and narratives by recognizing that meaning is never stable and constantly deferred. The concept of differance emphasizes that meaning is constructed through differentiation and that identity depends on outside influences. According to post-structuralism, the relationship between inside and outside is mutually dependent, and meaning is continually postponed through an endless process of signification.
Deontological Ethical Theory
Topic: DEONTOLOGICAL ETHICAL THEORY
Contents:
A. Historical Origin
Early beginning of human civilization
• The word of the king is the law
Deontological
Greek word “dein” or “deon” meaning “To be obligated” or simply “duty”
B.Kants’ Major Contribution to Deontological Theory
Immanuel Kant (1724-1804)
• Avid defender of deontological theory
• Contributed as many important and brilliant ideas to the philosophical study of ethics
C.The Good Will: The Core of Kant’s Ethics
Morality of an action lies on the inner motive rather than the external effects
Kants’ ethics primarily based on good will
Duty must be done out of pure reverence to the moral law
D.Duty over Inclination
“A person is only acting morally only when he suppresses his feelings and inclinations and does that which he is obliged to do”
Inclination
means doing the things that one’s feels like doing, and thus no obligation exists.
Example:
Helping your neighbor to fix her flat tire.
• Three possible reasons of helping:
1) Expectation of the reward-immoral
2) Pity-immoral
3) Duty-moral
1 is done out of desire to get a reward and 2 is done out of emotion thus, the acts are considered immoral. On the other hand, 3 is done out of obligation and this makes the act moral.
E.Duty is Superior to Happiness
“Our duties cannot consist simply in following rules that promote pleasure and avoidance of pain as the utilitarian’s claim, since that would make right actions depend upon consequences, on how well they satisfied our desires”
Example:
1) Lying
2) Breaking promise
The above examples are immoral actions not because it can create bad consequences but because these are wrong in itself.
F.The Categorical Imperative: The Universalizability Principle
“Act only according to that maxim by which you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law”
Maxim is a personal and subjective guiding principle
We must universalize our moral judgement
G.The Principle of Humanity (Respect for Persons)
Also known as ’Principle of Ends’
Concerns respect for the dignity of persons
Rational beings are ends in themselves
Do not treat others as means
H.Autonomy of The Will (Kingdom of Ends)
“For without personal autonomy, Morality becomes an impossibility”
Autonomous will
The will becomes autonomous when the genuinely moral actions are chosen:
• Freely
• Rationally
• By The Self (Autonomously)
Kingdom of ends
It is a moral universe of the moral beings in which:
• Respect for Intrinsic Worth
• Respect for Value of All Persons
is exercised by everyone.

Direct and indirect elections
This document discusses direct and indirect elections. Direct elections allow voters to directly cast ballots for political candidates or parties. Indirect elections involve voters selecting electors who then choose political leaders. Some advantages of direct elections are that it gives citizens direct choice over their representatives. Indirect elections are used in countries like Pakistan, India, and Turkey to select heads of state. Advocates argue it can select more qualified leaders, but critics say it is less democratic and opens the system to more political corruption.

The document discusses some of the hidden dangers of using Facebook based on an expert's analysis. It outlines 5 main risks: 1) personal information being shared with third parties through applications and connections; 2) privacy settings reverting to less safe defaults with site redesigns; 3) ads potentially containing malware; 4) friends unintentionally exposing personal information; and 5) profile information retention even after deleting accounts. The expert warns that Facebook's business practices sometimes compromise users' privacy for marketing goals.
1. realist theories
1. Right Realism emerged in the 1970s-1980s and favored tough law and order policies like increased imprisonment and the death penalty.
2. Right Realists believe that crime is caused by biological differences in individuals, poor socialization rather than structural factors, and rational choice to offend if risks are low.
3. They advocate deterrence methods like zero tolerance policing, surveillance, and harsh punishments to raise the costs of offending. However, critics argue this ignores wider causes of crime and can discriminate against certain groups.
Acca p1 chap 12- ethical theories
Ethical theories document discusses deontological and teleological approaches to ethics. Deontological is non-consequentialist and focuses on principles and morality of actions. Teleological is consequentialist and judges actions based on their outcomes and consequences. It also discusses Kohlberg's stages of cognitive moral development and different positions on social responsibility like pristine capitalist, expedient, social ecologist, and deep ecologist. Finally, it covers variables determining cultural context of ethics and corporate versus personal ethical stances.
Hobbes, Locke, And Rousseau
The document discusses the philosophies of Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau regarding human nature and the formation of government. Hobbes viewed the state of nature as one of constant conflict where life was "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." He believed strong central government was needed to enforce order. Locke believed the state of nature granted natural rights but that government was formed through social contract to protect life, liberty, and property. Rousseau argued people are born free but become chained by society and government; legitimate rule requires consent of the governed under the general will.

Intro to Model United Nations
Model United Nations (MUN) is an academic simulation where students learn about diplomacy and global issues. Students are assigned countries and research international topics to debate solutions from different national perspectives within committees that mirror the UN. Conferences involve presenting positions, drafting resolutions, and voting to develop solutions through compromise, as diplomacy works in the real UN.
Postmodernism, post-structuralism, and post-colonialism in IR
This document provides an introduction to postmodernism and related theories in international relations. It begins with definitions of postmodernism and modernism, noting that postmodernism has emerged in various disciplines. It then discusses key aspects of modernism versus postmodernism. The document proceeds to outline some major postmodern thinkers and their ideas, including Foucault, Derrida, Lyotard and Baudrillard. It also discusses post-structuralism and how it critiques and builds upon structuralism. Finally, it briefly defines post-colonialism and the work of Edward Said on orientalism.
Liberalism
Liberalism is a political philosophy founded on ideas of liberty and equality. It emphasizes individual freedom and sees international relations as potentially cooperative rather than conflictual. Liberalism emerged with thinkers like John Locke in the 17th century who saw potential for progress in civil society, capitalism, and individual liberty guaranteed by states. The four main strands of liberal thought are institutional liberalism, which underscores organized state cooperation through institutions; interdependence liberalism, which focuses on economic interdependence reducing conflict; sociological liberalism, highlighting non-governmental ties between societies; and republican liberalism, arguing liberal democracies induce peaceful relations.
International relations(Introduction and its Theories)
This document provides an overview of key theories in international relations, including realism, liberalism, Marxism, and constructivism. It discusses the main assumptions and policy prescriptions of each theory. Realism focuses on state power and security, seeing states as rational actors. Liberalism emphasizes international cooperation and institutions. Marxism views the international system as perpetuating capitalist exploitation. Constructivism examines how state identities and non-state actors shape international politics. The document aims to describe, explain, and predict international relations from the perspectives of different theoretical approaches.
League of Nations
The document provides information about the formation and objectives of the League of Nations, as well as its structure, membership, powers, and successes and failures. The League of Nations was formed after World War 1 to promote international cooperation and prevent future wars. However, it struggled to achieve its goals due to weaknesses like its lack of an army to enforce its decisions, an changing membership as countries left, and its inability to stop aggression by Japan and Italy in the early 1930s. This signaled that the League was ineffective at fulfilling its most important purpose of maintaining international peace.

Levels & Trends in Child Mortality
This report from the UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation provides estimates of under-five, infant and neonatal mortality rates globally and by country/region. It finds that while progress has been made towards reducing child mortality, current rates of reduction remain insufficient to achieve Millennium Development Goal 4 by 2015. Under-five mortality is still highest in Sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia. Neonatal deaths now account for over 40% of under-five mortality globally. The report analyzes trends and presents the latest estimates to monitor progress towards improving child survival worldwide.

Millennium Development Goal progress report 2014, The
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were a pledge
to uphold the principles of human dignity, equality and
equity, and free the world from extreme poverty. The
MDGs, with eight goals and a set of measurable timebound
targets, established a blueprint for tackling the
most pressing development challenges of our time. This report examines the latest progress towards
achieving the MDGs. It reaffirms that the MDGs
have made a profound difference in people’s lives.
Global poverty has been halved five years ahead of
the 2015 timeframe. Ninety per cent of children in
developing regions now enjoy primary education, and
disparities between boys and girls in enrolment have
narrowed. Remarkable gains have also been made in
the fight against malaria and tuberculosis, along with
improvements in all health indicators. The likelihood of
a child dying before age five has been nearly cut in half
over the last two decades. That means that about 17,000
children are saved every day. We also met the target
of halving the proportion of people who lack access to
improved sources of water.

This document discusses the importance of reliable data for monitoring progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). It outlines how MDG monitoring has driven development policy decisions by generating public support and funding. Disaggregated data has helped identify issues in local areas and among marginalized groups, allowing for effective interventions. The MDG framework has also strengthened statistical capacity and improved data availability in many developing countries. National statistical systems have been able to produce internationally comparable development indicators, and coordination within countries on data collection has improved.

It also notes Bahrain joined the Youth Peer Education Network to educate youth on health issues.Millennium Development Goals, Targets and Indicators
The document discusses the Millennium Development Goals established in 2000 to improve human development by 2015. It outlines the 8 goals and related targets and indicators to measure progress in reducing poverty, hunger, disease, lack of education, and gender inequality. While some progress was made, many targets are unlikely to be met given uneven progress across regions, with sub-Saharan Africa in particular continuing to face many challenges in improving health, education, and development standards.
Millennium Development Goals Report 2012
The Millennium Development Goals Report 2012 was launched in New York by the Secretary-General on 2 July 2012. The report presents the yearly assessment of global progress towards the MDGs, highlighting several milestones – three important MDG targets have been met well ahead of the target date of 2015. The report says that meeting the remaining targets, while challenging, remain possible - but only if Governments do not waiver from their commitments made over a decade ago. The report is based on a master set of data compiled by the Inter-Agency and Expert Group on MDG indicators led by the Statistics Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs.
Progress in MDGs
This document compares progress toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) between the national level in Egypt and the 151 poorest villages. Key findings include:
- At the national level, the proportion of people living below $1 per day decreased from 4.5% to 1.7% from 1991 to 2008, but in the 151 poorest villages it was 55%.
- The poverty gap ratio, measuring resources needed to eliminate poverty, decreased nationally but increased to 35% in the poorest villages.
- Employment levels were higher nationally than in the poorest villages, especially for women.
- Progress toward some MDGs has been made nationally due to economic growth, but significant inequalities remain for

The estimates were released today by the UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation, which includes UNICEF, WHO, the World Bank and United Nations Population Division.
Levels & Trends in Child Mortality Report 2012
The document summarizes key facts about progress towards Millennium Development Goal 4 of reducing child mortality. It finds that while the global under-five mortality rate has declined 41% since 1990, the progress has not been fast enough to achieve the goal. Most of the 6.9 million child deaths in 2011 were from preventable diseases. Sub-Saharan Africa still has the highest rates of child death and more progress is needed there to meet the goal by 2015.

This document summarizes key facts about progress towards Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG 4), which aims to reduce child mortality. It finds that while the global under-five mortality rate has declined 41% since 1990, the pace of reduction must accelerate to meet MDG 4.

Sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia still have the highest rates and account for an increasing share of global child deaths. Redoubling efforts there is critical to achieve universal reductions.

Agriculture is Africa's biggest comparative advantage and must contribute significantly to feeding the world. The new president of the African Development Bank views agriculture not as a way of life or development program but as a business. People need food to eat, not oil or gas, so agriculture should be treated as an important business.

Agenda 2063 is expected to inspire sustainable development plans in Africa and allow the continent to determine its own destiny, according to Ethiopian Prime Minister Hailemariam Dessalegn.

AUC Chairperson Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma stressed the importance of investing in education, particularly in math, science, technology and engineering, to enable the success of Agenda 2063. ECA Executive Secretary Carlos Lopes called for accelerated industrialization to structurally transform African economies.
