Book excerpt: EN SEULEMENT QUELQUES DÉCENNIES, les pays du monde entier sont devenus bien plus interdépendants qu’on n’aurait jamais pu l’imaginer. Notre regard sur le monde évolue et, avec lui, la demande pour que les cultures et les institutions politiques de la planète « pensent globalement » se fait croissante. Si penser globalement est souvent pavé de bonnes intentions, agir globalement sans tenir compte des réalités locales peut produire des résultats involontairement néfastes. Dans Une Transition juste, le célèbre auteur et entrepreneur camerounais NJ Ayuk montre comment cette triste réalité advient alors que les ambitieuses politiques de l’Agence internationale de l’énergie (AIE) en matière d’énergie verte étouffent et paralysent les économies énergétiques de l’Afrique. Avec une abondance naturelle de ressources pétrolières et gazières, l’Afrique a le potentiel d’être un leader mondial de l’énergie, mais l’énergie verte seule ne permettra pas d’opérer cette transformation. Une Transition juste analyse en détail la possibilité d’un avenir radieux pour les pays africains et les facteurs qui y font obstacle. NJ Ayuk nous présente un récit détaillé dans lequel il aborde avec expertise des sujets importants comme la réalité de la précarité énergétique, la valeur du gaz naturel en Afrique, l’impact néfaste de l’aide internationale en Afrique, l’adoption des nouvelles technologies ou encore la création de débouchés économiques pour les femmes. Avec une gouvernance réfléchie, du flair pour les perspectives d’avenir et l’attention toute particulière que les pays touchés par des réformes de grande envergure méritent, le continent africain est en mesure d’opérer une transition vers les énergies renouvelables juste et florissante pour toutes les parties concernées.

Download or read book New Strategies in Locust Control written by Stephan Krall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-12-01 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late eighties large-scale control operations were carried out to control a major desert locust upsurge in Africa. For the first time since the banning of organochlorine pesticides these operations relied mainly on non-persistent pesticides such as organophosphates and pyrethroids. The amount of pesticides sprayed and the area covered were probably the highest in the history of locust control and raised criticism with respect to efficacy, economic viability and environmental impact. As a consequence, applied research into the problem was intensified, both at the national and the international level, with the goal of finding new and environmentally sound approaches and solutions to locust and grasshopper control. Emphasis was laid on developing new control agents and techniques.

Download or read book Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research written by Aditya Johri and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-10 with total page 1124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research is the critical reference source for the growing field of engineering education research, featuring the work of world luminaries writing to define and inform this emerging field. The Handbook draws extensively on contemporary research in the learning sciences, examining how technology affects learners and learning environments, and the role of social context in learning. Since a landmark issue of the Journal of Engineering Education (2005), in which senior scholars argued for a stronger theoretical and empirically driven agenda, engineering education has quickly emerged as a research-driven field increasing in both theoretical and empirical work drawing on many social science disciplines, disciplinary engineering knowledge, and computing. The Handbook is based on the research agenda from a series of interdisciplinary colloquia funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in the Journal of Engineering Education in October 2006.

Download or read book Mode unisexe et d construction du genre un manifeste pour la libert d expression written by MAX EDITORIAL and published by Max Editorial. This book was released on 2024-05-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mode, en tant qu'expression culturelle, a toujours été liée à la construction des identités, y compris du genre. Tout au long de l'histoire, les vêtements et accessoires ont été utilisés pour différencier les hommes des femmes, renforçant les stéréotypes et limitant la liberté d'expression individuelle. Cependant, au cours des dernières décennies, un mouvement a émergé qui remet en question cette logique binaire : la mode unisexe. L'essor de la mode unisexe Les racines de la mode unisexe se trouvent dans les mouvements sociaux et culturels du XXe siècle tels que le féminisme et la contre-culture. La recherche de l'égalité des droits entre hommes et femmes, combinée au défi des normes sociales traditionnelles, a conduit à l'expérimentation de vêtements transcendant le genre. Déconstruire la binaire du genre La mode unisexe va au-delà de la simple esthétique. Il représente une critique de la rigidité des normes de genre et de l'idée selon laquelle les vêtements sont définis par un sexe spécifique. En remettant en question cette dichotomie, la mode unisexe ouvre un espace pour la libre expression de l'identité individuelle, indépendamment des étiquettes prédéfinies. Démonstrations de mode unisexe La mode unisexe se manifeste de diverses manières, depuis des pièces classiques réinterprétées dans des styles neutres jusqu'à des designs innovants qui transcendent les catégories de genre. Les jupes, pantalons, chemises, robes, vestes et accessoires peuvent être portés par n'importe qui, quelle que soit son identité de genre. Impact social et culturel La mode unisexe contribue à construire une société plus tolérante et diversifiée. En remettant en question les stéréotypes et en promouvant l'inclusion, elle remet en question le statu quo et ouvre un espace pour une expression individuelle authentique. La mode unisexe impacte également l'industrie textile, favorisant la création de collections plus fluides et démocratiques. Pionniers et influenceurs Plusieurs artistes, célébrités et marques de mode se sont imposés comme des agents de transformation dans la déconstruction du genre à travers la mode. Des personnages tels que David Bowie, Boy George, Tilda Swinton , Jaden Smith, Zendaya et des marques comme Thom Browne, Hood par Air , EckhausLatta et Marni sont des exemples de pionniers et d'influenceurs de ce mouvement. L'avenir de la mode unisexe La mode unisexe est un mouvement en constante évolution, qui a le potentiel de révolutionner la façon dont nous nous habillons et exprimons notre identité. L'avenir de la mode apparaît comme un espace de plus en plus inclusif, où la fluidité des genres et la liberté d'expression individuelle seront les piliers d'une esthétique innovante et authentique. Conclusion La mode unisexe est bien plus qu'une tendance passagère. Il représente un mouvement social qui remet en question les normes traditionnelles et promeut la construction d'une société plus juste et égalitaire. En déconstruisant la binaire des genres et en ouvrant un espace pour la libre expression de l'identité individuelle, la mode unisexe devient un manifeste pour la liberté d'être qui vous êtes. Apprenez-en bien plus...
