The ChonGae Canal restoration project in central Seoul, South Korea involved removing nearly four miles of elevated highways to uncover and restore seven miles of the polluted ChonGae waterway. A new park called the "Sunken Stone Garden" was built at the water's edge, creating a vibrant public space.

Since the restoration, air pollution has dropped 36% along the stream, temperatures are 5 degrees lower, and biodiversity has greatly increased.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

About Potato, The scientific name of the plant is Solanum tuberosum (L).Christina Parmionova

Synopsis (short abstract) In December 2023, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 30 May as the International Day of Potato.
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

7. The Bayside Beach is managed by our department and we currently employ 8
lifeguards and water safety instructors (swim instructors). The lifeguarded beach
is open starting June 16th – August 15th from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the week
and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the weekends.
Public swimming is free. There was a charge to use the beach but 4 years ago
the Select Board decided to eliminate the fees. Our department operates the
Beach at a deficit around $14,000-$16,000 each year which is subsidized through
the Program Fund.
Our Waterfront operations also support the Colchester Triathlon for swimmer
safety.

new and inviting facility for all residents of Colchester to enjoy. We used
Program Fund revenues to remodel the interior of the building with new
sheetrock walls and ceilings and a new kitchen. The cost of the
renovation was $25,000 of which no tax payer money was used.
We have been successful in bringing new and exciting programs to the
center such as:
Technology programs

Technology to Music, Food and Hobby.

of ACE program and the new LIFE program.
Staffing totals for recreation programs:

• Contractual employees not included.
18. Throughout the spring and summer months our department is constantly
scheduling athletic venues such as the softball field for the 4 adult leagues
that rent the facility as well as the soccer, baseball and lacrosse fields.
That work is handled by the Assistant Recreation Director.
The park pavilions at Bayside Park and Airport Park continue to be a
popular event location for residents and non-residents. Reservations can
begin on March 1st of each year on a first come first serve basis.
19. This is a program that our department created to be a volunteer pool for events
and activities in our community. We wanted to base it on the Play it Forward
concept. Those who volunteer for department activities will be honored with a
dinner in the fall.
