Download or read book Study of Placement Options for Unaccompanied Kampuchean Children in Thailand written by and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study evaluates three options for unaccompanied Kampuchean minors in Thailand: reunification with parents or relatives, remaining in the refugee camps and resettlement in third countries. In 1980 there were over 2300 children living in the refugee camps in Thailand. This study was based on a case-by-case analysis of the children's dossiers. The first section of the report evaluates reunification and tracing programmes: reunification in and between camps, at the border, and in Kampuchea or in third countries. The researchers found that reunification was at least possible for approximately 80% of these Kampuchean children, since they had reported living parents or relatives. This section also contains a brief description of successful reunification programmes in Biafra, Bangladesh and Ethiopia. The second section of the report describes the living situations of the children in the refugee camps. At the time of the study, 1300 children were living in UNHCR children's centres or group homes. An additional 1000 children had spontaneously settled into foster homes in the camps. The researchers found that children's emotional and developmental needs were met adequately within the camps. The last section of the report examines resettlement. First, the report describes previous resettlement programmes in the United States, Australia, West Germany, France and Sweden. Then the possibilities of resettlement with Kampuchean or indigenous families are discussed. The study concludes that reunification is the best placement option, and recommends that children should not be resettled until every effort to reunify has been exhausted.

Book excerpt: Bruno, chef de police in the French town of St Denis, is already busy with a case when the body of an undercover French Muslim cop is found in the woods, a man who called Bruno for help only hours before. But Bruno's sometime boss and rival, the Brigadier, doesn't see this investigation as a priority - there are bigger issues at stake. Bruno has other ideas. Meanwhile, a Muslim youth named Sami turns up at a French army base in Afghanistan hoping to get home to St Denis. One of Bruno's old army comrades helps to smuggle Sami back to France, but the FBI aren't far behind. Then an American woman appears in St Denis with a warrant for Sami's extradition. Bruno must unravel these multiple mysteries, amidst pressure from his bosses, and find his own way to protect his town and its people.
Download or read book The Borderlands of Southeast Asia written by James Clad and published by NDU Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an academic field in its own right, the topic of border studies is experiencing a revival in university geography courses as well as in wider political commentary. Until recently, border studies in contemporary Southeast Asia appeared as an afterthought at best to the politics of interstate rivalry and national consolidation. The maps set out all agreed postcolonial lines. Meanwhile, the physical demarcation of these boundaries lagged. Large slices of territory, on land and at sea, eluded definition or delineation. That comforting ambiguity has disappeared. Both evolving technologies and price levels enable rapid resource extraction in places, and in volumes, once scarcely imaginable. The beginning of the 21st century's second decade is witnessing an intensifying diplomacy, both state-to-state and commercial, over offshore petroleum. In particular, the South China Sea has moved from being a rather arcane area of conflict studies to the status of a bellwether issue. Along with other contested areas in the western Pacific and south Asia, the problem increasingly defines China's regional relationships in Asia, and with powers outside the region, especially the United States. Yet intraregional territorial differences also hobble multilateral diplomacy to counter Chinese claims, and daily management of borders remains burdened by a lot of retrospective baggage. The contributors to this book emphasize this mix of heritage and history as the primary leitmotif for contemporary border rivalries and dynamics. Whether the region's 11 states want it or not, their bordered identity is falling into ever sharper definition, if only because of pressure from extraregional states. This book aims to provide new ways of looking at the reality and illusion of bordered Southeast Asia.

Download or read book Demography of Refugee and Forced Migration written by Graeme Hugo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This authoritative and comprehensive edited volume presents current research on how demography can contribute to generating scientific knowledge and evidence concerning refugees and forced migration, developing evidence based policy recommendations on protection for forced migrants and reception of refugees, and revealing the determinants and consequences of migration for origin and destination regions and communities. Refugee and other forced migrations have increased substantially in scale, complexity and diversity in recent decades. These changes challenge traditional approaches in response to refugee and other forced migration situations, and protection of refugees. Demography has an important contribution to make in this analytic space. While other disciplines (especially anthropology, law, geography, political science and international relations) have made major contributions to refugee and forced migration studies, demography has been less present with most research focusing on issues of refugee mortality and morbidity. This book specifies the range of topics for which a demographic approach is highly appropriate, and identifies findings of demographic research which can contribute to ever more effective policy making in this important arena of human welfare and international policy.

This book was released on 2009-02-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yasushi Hirosato and Yuto Kitamura Developing countries, including Southeast Asian countries, face an enormous challenge in ensuring equitable access to quality education in the context of deepening globalization and increasing international competition. They must simultaneously meet the goals of Education for All (EFA) at the basic education level and of developing a more sophisticated workforce required by the knowledge-based economy at the post-basic, especially tertiary, education level. To meet this challenge, developing countries need to reform/renovate their education systems and service deliveries as an integral part of national development. However, most of them have not yet fully developed the individual, institutional, and system capacities in undertaking necessary education reforms, especially under decentralization and privatization requiring new roles at various (central and local, or public and private) levels of administration and stakeholders. Provided that an ultimate vision of educational development and cooperation in the twenty-first century would be to develop indigenous capacity in engineering education reforms, this book analyzes the overall education reform context and capacity, including the status of sector program support using the sector-wide approach (SWAp)/program-based approach (PBA) in developing countries. We also address how different stakeholders have been interacting in order to promote equitable access to quality education, particularly from the perspectives of capacity development under the system of decentralization.
