This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The Wisemen Council was created in 2009 in Montreal, QEC, in response to a need for a Project Management Consultant with cross-cutting skills. The positioning has progressively evolved in a cumulative way towards the accompaniment of ethnic entrepreneurs with the composition of the Political Economy Doctrine of the Ka Method in 2012 for the Diaspora in the West, then towards international development through the empowerment of informal entrepreneurs culminating in 2018 in a Schism of our Consulting Firm and Think Tank with the arbitrary policies of diverse capacity building and the application of a model of feminism contrary to the traditional and mystical local values (Matriarchy) in exchange for a privileged and pressing access to the resources of the Southern Countries. Bartering considered iniquitous in terms of training and cooperation, which we want to replace with Modes of Organization of Simple Entrepreneurial Life (MOVES) and Partnerships of Common Vision (PVC). In 2020, the civil rights of the economic actors and community leaders of our target populations (Perfora: Ritual Islamologue and Ancestrologue People; Diaspora: Virtual Allophone People; Fraternia: South America, Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia) are threatened by Stress (Panic Danger), Manipulation (Digital Debt) and Doubt (Genetic Data) with a new type of Great Anxiety on Health opening the way to the virtualization of the World Finance So we have chosen to launch ourselves with the weapons, souls and masks at our disposal to work towards the manifestation of our Vision of the Market Economy: "To make the Informal economy a Quality alternative to the Liberal System for the advent of the Economy in Religion and Ecology in Spirituality by putting Man back at the Heart with individual Philosophies around a Faith of Simplicity, all for the Socio-Economic Sovereignty of the Homes of the South, the West and their Sympathizers". It is to this end that we propose to accompany in Strategy (Competition), projects and initiatives for a better performance and adaptation to the Ecosystems within the framework of the new rise of the Black Civilization throughout the World. You are invited to join us in this challenge according to your interests because we scan a wide range of possibilities of Synergy (Competing) through products, services and routines. In God we trust.

This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The very Essence of our economic and social approach is to contribute to the official global effort against poverty (and not Poor, Precarious and Profane) that could, in an alternative way, be encouraged by twinning between people from the South, their Diaspora and their supporters. We are a Strategic Organization Consulting Firm and a Community Economy Think Tank and we have 3 axes of intervention namely: Consortium Partnership with NGOs and Consulting Firms; Business, Project and Technical Writing Services for SMEs; and (Re)Structuring of Informal and Ethnic VSEs. Our target audience is Peer Homes of, Economic Actors (Commerce and Enterprise) and Community Leaders (Administration and Families), regardless of gender or age, who are deprived of equity in their civil rights. This is our terms of Preference: The Ethnic Diaspora becoming for the Informal People an Overseas Partner (OSP), the African economic regions developing between them privileged exchanges and limiting or severely regulating those with the other regions on the model of China during its recovery by ostracism.

This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Socio-economic role wisdom, formerly known as "economic empowerment", is the empowerment of life partners through the distribution of productive roles in a household. It aims to limit the effects of poverty, precariousness, profanity, etc. as a burden weighing on the resource person(s), whether in the household or the community. Context of the project. “A simple kickstart could lead to great impact on community and international economic development” Community and International economic development are often under the action of NGO or Non for profit organizations. There are new trends first to get people with foreign expertise and local culture from the Diaspora of Southern countries involved in rebuilding efforts and, secondly, to organization that have independent source of revenue to sustain their activities. That why we decide to initiate this project of foundation to launch our socioeconomic action of our structure that is for profit but fall in the category of organizations that seek people better living condition as part of business other assignment. We choose to work on Diaspora unemployment leading to precarity and youth entrepreneurship as a leverage tool out of poverty.

Download or read book Business Model of an Informal Property Management Entreprise written by Arnaud Segla and published by The Wisemen Council. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Amaru is a proactive developer who has chosen to enter the Informal Property Management Company (EGII) sector. He now wishes to market his project for a Limited Liability Property Management Company in order to gain recognition for his talent and professionalism in administration. The project proposes to offer property management services on behalf of members of the Diaspora on the one hand. And, on the other hand, local people who don't have the time or the means to pay a professional real estate broker. The market for intermediation in real estate asset management is marked by legal risk and investment losses, but also by a great need for regularity, which is why we want to position ourselves as a facilitator for our target clientele, which is essentially made up of nationals from the Diaspora and wealthy middle-class local individuals with property to manage. Compared to the market, it has the advantage of being results-oriented, which enables us to grasp the need for reliable players with integrity. The business model aims to offer services ranging from rent collection, caretaking and housekeeping to site enhancement and development, using multi-skilled staff to guarantee the customer a facilitated property management experience. Sales will be facilitated by a marketing strategy emphasizing price flexibility for fair pricing according to risk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION At the request of my fellow Consultants of The Wisemen Council, and in order to refresh my own ideas on a battle that I am fighting on a broad front to the point of forgetting certain aspects, I decided to write this monograph to give a global presentation of what the Ka Method is. Of course, it was not a question of repeating the content already created, but of making a sort of short glossary of the main book in order to explain the main points with the help of the Spirit. It is a form of synthesis review before the beginning of the phase of this project which aims at anchoring the Vision in Reality. I deliver it to you without much filter so that you can take the measure of the challenge as I live it daily.

Download or read book Ethnicity and Economy a Calm Lifetime Endeavour written by Arnaud Segla and published by The Wisemen Council. This book was released on 2024-05-23 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The philosophy of Lean Intention serves as a basis for informal management, particularly in the decision-making process of what constitutes the Ka of a company, i.e., the whole integrating the dynamics of the vital forces of the members associated with the project or initiative being pursued. This is not a classic management book, still less a canonical one, in that it incorporates notions of spirituality based on the Ka Method and ECO Animism, which value so-called ethnocultural psychic phenomena in socio-economic quests: "Economy through Animism and Spirituality". The aim here is to summarize, for academic purposes, the work on ethnic entrepreneurship undertaken by Consultant Manager and Author Arnaud Segla as part of his professional and business activities in economic and international development, between Canada and Africa. Some excerpts have already been published, but are presented in a different context. Each term has its place and use. Composing a manual to support an academic training course requires specifying from the outset the key terms around which the entire academic content is deployed. Entrepreneurs are strategists who define and pursue one or more objectives through a project for development (exchanges for growth) or communion (sharing through finance) in various fields such as business, politics, religion, military force, culture, etc. The self-employed or liberal professions are economic players who monetize a technical, administrative, manual or intellectual skill according to fees indexed to scales of competence and specialization. Traders, whether in the formal liberal or informal economy, operate by buying and reselling products and services in order to make a profit according to the price trend of a local or international market on which they are positioned. Business people are individuals who identify market needs and provide solutions through innovation, invention, acquisition or adaptation of various resources, with the aim of meeting or exceeding the expectations of their target clientele. In today's world, these individuals have been wrongly and abusively assimilated to the term "entrepreneur", because of the new economic and social stakes involved in the classification or rivalry of the power of civilizations, also known as the world order. All these 4 profiles are, by default, project promoters, with varying degrees of strength or motivation in their initiation, modeling, animation, profitability and productivity. The power of civilizations has already had to be measured by divine knowledge, land holdings, military strength, the extent of trade, scientific knowledge and political power. Now we're entering an era of socio-economic power and bio-ecological preservation... In today's world, competition in a cross-cultural context can take on several dimensions: the social, ethnic, informal and digital economies. Informal industry is often considered the fourth or fifth economic sector (depending on whether information technology is considered before it), after agriculture and mining (primary sector), manufacturing (secondary sector) and services (tertiary sector). The debate is between the place of technology and informality. Thus, the 4 dimensions of an innovative and successful ethnic enterprise born of an adaptation or even improvement of the informal model implies the mastery and recurrent and repeated success of deals from business idea to market launch. This self-coaching or reference book for consultants involved in ethnic economic and community development projects provides practical advice and insights using the (ethnic) project strategy life cycle: Believe, Federate, Prosper, Share.

Download or read book Indigenous Data Sovereignty written by Tahu Kukutai and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the global ‘data revolution’ accelerates, how can the data rights and interests of indigenous peoples be secured? Premised on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, this book argues that indigenous peoples have inherent and inalienable rights relating to the collection, ownership and application of data about them, and about their lifeways and territories. As the first book to focus on indigenous data sovereignty, it asks: what does data sovereignty mean for indigenous peoples, and how is it being used in their pursuit of self-determination? The varied group of mostly indigenous contributors theorise and conceptualise this fast-emerging field and present case studies that illustrate the challenges and opportunities involved. These range from indigenous communities grappling with issues of identity, governance and development, to national governments and NGOs seeking to formulate a response to indigenous demands for data ownership. While the book is focused on the CANZUS states of Canada, Australia, Aotearoa/New Zealand and the United States, much of the content and discussion will be of interest and practical value to a broader global audience. ‘A debate-shaping book … it speaks to a fast-emerging field; it has a lot of important things to say; and the timing is right.’ — Stephen Cornell, Professor of Sociology and Faculty Chair of the Native Nations Institute, University of Arizona ‘The effort … in this book to theorise and conceptualise data sovereignty and its links to the realisation of the rights of indigenous peoples is pioneering and laudable.’ — Victoria Tauli-Corpuz, UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Baguio City, Philippines

Download or read book In Defense of Housing written by Peter Marcuse and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2024-08-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In every major city in the world there is a housing crisis. How did this happen and what can we do about it? Everyone needs and deserves housing. But today our homes are being transformed into commodities, making the inequalities of the city ever more acute. Profit has become more important than social need. The poor are forced to pay more for worse housing. Communities are faced with the violence of displacement and gentrification. And the benefits of decent housing are only available for those who can afford it. In Defense of Housing is the definitive statement on this crisis from leading urban planner Peter Marcuse and sociologist David Madden. They look at the causes and consequences of the housing problem and detail the need for progressive alternatives. The housing crisis cannot be solved by minor policy shifts, they argue. Rather, the housing crisis has deep political and economic roots—and therefore requires a radical response.

Download or read book Decolonizing Methodologies written by Linda Tuhiwai Smith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A landmark in the process of decolonizing imperial Western knowledge.' Walter Mignolo, Duke University To the colonized, the term 'research' is conflated with European colonialism; the ways in which academic research has been implicated in the throes of imperialism remains a painful memory. This essential volume explores intersections of imperialism and research - specifically, the ways in which imperialism is embedded in disciplines of knowledge and tradition as 'regimes of truth.' Concepts such as 'discovery' and 'claiming' are discussed and an argument presented that the decolonization of research methods will help to reclaim control over indigenous ways of knowing and being. Now in its eagerly awaited second edition, this bestselling book has been substantially revised, with new case-studies and examples and important additions on new indigenous literature, the role of research in indigenous struggles for social justice, which brings this essential volume urgently up-to-date.

Download or read book Neoliberal Apartheid written by Andy Clarno and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comparative analysis of the political transitions in South Africa and Palestine since the 1990s. Clarno s study is grounded in impressive ethnographic fieldwork, taking him from South African townships to Palestinian refugee camps, where he talked to a wide array of informants, from local residents to policymakers, political activists, business representatives, and local and international security personnel. The resulting inquiry accounts for the simultaneous development of extreme inequality, racialized poverty, and advanced strategies for securing the powerful and policing the poor in South Africa and Palestine/Israel over the last 20 years. Clarno places these transitions in a global context while arguing that a new form of neoliberal apartheid has emerged in both countries. The width and depth of Clarno s research, combined with wide-ranging first-hand accounts of realities otherwise difficult for researchers to access, make Neoliberal Apartheid a path-breaking contribution to the study of social change, political transitions, and security dynamics in highly unequal societies. Take one example of Clarno s major themes, to wit, the issue of security. Both places have generated advanced strategies for securing the powerful and policing the racialized poor. In South Africa, racialized anxieties about black crime shape the growth of private security forces that police poor black South Africans in wealthy neighborhoods. Meanwhile, a discourse of Muslim terrorism informs the coordinated network of security forcesinvolving Israel, the United States, Jordan, and the Palestinian Authoritythat polices Palestinians in the West Bank. Overall, Clarno s pathbreaking book shows how the shifting relationship between racism, capitalism, colonialism, and empire has generated inequality and insecurity, marginalization and securitization in South Africa, Palestine/Israel, and other parts of the world."

Download or read book Food Sovereignty in International Context written by Amy Trauger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food sovereignty is an emerging discourse of empowerment and autonomy in the food system with the development of associated practices in rural and some urban spaces. While literature on food sovereignty has proliferated since the first usage of the term in 1996 at the Rome Food Summit, most has been descriptive rather than explanatory in nature, and often confuses food sovereignty with other movements and objectives such as alternative food networks, food justice, or food self-sufficiency. This book is a collection of empirically rich and theoretically engaged papers across a broad geographical spectrum reflecting on what constitutes the politics and practices of food sovereignty. They contribute to a theoretical gap in the food sovereignty literature as well as a relative shortage of empirical work on food sovereignty in the global "North", much previous work having focussed on Latin America. Specific case studies are included from Canada, Norway, Switzerland, southern Europe, UK and USA, as well as Africa, India and Ecuador. The book presents new research on the emergence of food sovereignties. It offers a wide variety of empirical examples and a theoretically engaged framework for explaining the aims of actors and organizations working toward autonomy and democracy in the food system.
