  • Pages : 274 pages

Download or read book Enclave written by Claire G. Coleman and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2022-06-29 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LONGLISTED FOR THE MILES FRANKLIN LITERARY AWARD 2023 'These are troubling times. The world is a dangerous place,' the voice of the Chairman said. 'I can continue to assure you of this: within the Wall you are perfectly safe.' Christine could not sleep, she could not wake, she could not think. She stared, half-blind, at the cold screen of her smartphone. She was told the Agency was keeping them safe from the dangers outside, an outside world she would never see. She never imagined questioning what she was told, what she was allowed to know, what she was permitted to think. She never even thought there were questions to ask. The enclave was the only world she knew, the world outside was not safe. Staying or leaving was not a choice she had the power to make. But then Christine dared start thinking . . . and from that moment, danger was everywhere. In our turbulent times, Claire G. Coleman's Enclave is a powerful dystopian allegory that confronts the ugly realities of racism, homophobia, surveillance, greed and privilege and the self-destructive distortions that occur when we ignore our shared humanity. 'A brilliant, engrossing, necessary read' COURIER MAIL 'Much of this novel feels frighteningly plausible ... Coleman's world shimmers on the page like a heat haze' ARTS HUB 'If you liked Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale or Charlotte Woods' The Natural Way of Things, this one is clearly for you' SYDNEY MORNING HERALD 'The book holds up a thoughtful mirror showing us to ourselves using an all too real future' KILL YOUR DARLINGS 'Enclave is a novel that inclines towards hope ... offers us an alternative: a world in which people, in meeting the demands of the present with curiosity, courage and conviction, can bring about a more just and inclusive future' NEW DAILY 'Coleman can turn a deft phrase ... She writes a mean chase sequence, ramping up the suspense when she wants, with fight scenes and great narrative propulsion' THE AGE 'Coleman offers an urgent critique of bigotry and, implicitly, of colonialism, writing with conviction about the ways technology can be misused by those in power, but also how it might be deployed for good. Indeed, despite its dystopian tenor, Enclave is ultimately a hopeful novel, and one which suggests it is far from futile to aspire to a better future' MANJIMUP-BRIDGETOWN TIMES 'If Margaret Atwood's dystopian Handmaid's Tale ignited a spark, you'll rip through Claire Coleman's new novel like a forest fire' MARIE CLAIRE 'She is toying with the canon, but also placing menacing signposts of the unsustainability of the settlement's brutal, exclusionary politics. Enclave is a clarion shout against demonising the unfamiliar, and the temptation to withdraw into a bubble' THE GUARDIAN

Download or read book She Is written by ElsaMarie D'Silva and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-11-24 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2021 is the beginning of the ‘decade of action’ to realise the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. It is imperative that every single person understands the goals, becomes familiar with them and takes individual and collective action to realise them if we want to live a quality life.SDG 5 in particular talks about Gender Equality which in our view is central to the realisation of the SDGs. Unfortunately in India, women in leadership positions are not visible and the numbers do not stack up. We have less than 10% representation of women in the State Legislative Assembly, 14% in Parliament, about 24% in the formal labour force which is declining year on year. If you cannot see her, you cannot be her. This book aims to showcase the journeys of women leaders in their respective fields and also in the realisation of the 17 SDGs through their work. We have scientists, police women, judges and business entrepreneurs who have shared their failures and successes. Through their unique perspectives they have shared on how despite one’s backgrounds one can achieve one’s goals, overcome socio-cultural barriers and contribute to the collective good.

Book The Trillion Dollar Shift

Download or read book The Trillion Dollar Shift written by Marga Hoek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Gold Axiom Business Book Award 2019 in the Philanthropy / Non Profit / Sustainability category. Over the past 30 years, the world has seen great social improvements. Technology has been developing at an enormous pace and is helping to solve our most pressing social and environmental challenges. Yet, despite this success, our current model of development is still deeply problematic. Natural disasters triggered by climate change have doubled since the 1980s, violence and armed conflict now cost more than 13 percent of GDP, social inequality and youth unemployment is worsening around the world, and climate change threatens the global population with tremendous environmental as well as social problems. Using the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals as a framework, this book sets out how business and capital now have a real opportunity to help resolve these problems. With clear and plentiful examples and cases of how businesses are making a difference, relevant facts and figures to support the cases, and inspiring and instructional information on how businesses can create sustainable value, this highly readable book is a must-read for businesses (large and small) that wish to genuinely support the delivery of the SDGs. The Paris Climate Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) drive change and offer a narrative and an opportunity to all to speak in one language on sustainability. They provide us with a clear set of targets for 2030. Through following the SDGs, opportunities abound for business and capital to unlock markets which offer endless potential for profit while at the same time working towards the Sustainable Development Goals. This book illustrates for business how to make the much-needed Trillion Dollar Shift.
