Download or read book Lockdown in New Zealand written by Manfred Görk and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: March 25, 18:30: Automatic alarm on every mobile phone in New Zealand. "NATIONAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY ALERT...". The Corona-Lockdown also starts for Sven Neuland and Wei Ling. What are the goals, what measures are taken, can the virus be defeated? This diary describes how Corona takes possession of everyday life as a constant companion. A fragment of a period of dramatic upheaval of unknown duration. A dialogue with the devil... Even before their departure, Corona was part of life in many countries. The planning of their journey was already directly affected by the virus. On their arrival, Corona was not a real issue for the Kiwis. That's why the first three weeks of the diary focus on their travel experiences. This makes things all the more sudden. The New Zealand government's decisions are based on a master plan, the rapid implementation of which becomes a very narrow framework for freedom of movement in the country for thousands of foreigners. When the two are back in Germany, completely new rules for life apply there, as at the time of their departure. They experience the German reality and make comparisons with the New Zealand way. The differences are enormous. Which path will lead to success? Sven Neuhaus dares to make a clear prognosis. Be curious.

Book The Great Realization

Download or read book The Great Realization written by Tomos Roberts (Tomfoolery) and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected by Today as a book "to ease kids’ anxiety about coronavirus.” We all need hope. Humans have an extraordinary capacity to battle through adversity, but only if they have something to cling onto: a belief or hope that maybe, one day, things will be better. This idea sparked The Great Realization. Sharing the truths we may find hard to tell but also celebrating the things—from simple acts of kindness and finding joy in everyday activities, to the creativity within us all—that have brought us together during lockdown, it gives us hope in this time of global crisis. Written for his younger brother and sister in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Tomos Roberts’s heartfelt poem is as timely as it is timeless. Its message of hope and resilience, of rebirth and renewal, has captured the hearts of children and adults all over the globe—and the glimpse it offers of a fairer, kinder, more sustainable world continues to inspire thousands every day. With Tomos Roberts’s heartfelt poem and beautiful illustrations by award-winning artist Nomoco, The Great Realization is a profound work, at once striking and reassuring, reminding readers young and old that in the face of adversity there are still dreams to be dreamt and kindnesses to be shared and hope. There is still hope. We now call it The Great Realization and, yes, since then there have been many. But that’s the story of how it started . . . and why hindsight’s 2020.

This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the question of whether the conceptualisation of New Zealand as a welcoming nation is accurate. Examining historical and contemporary narratives of migrant and refugee discrimination, it considers the economic, social, political, cultural and historical contexts from which discrimination emerges and its repercussions.

With rich evidence, fascinating new insights and engagement comparatively and transnationally with global themes of exploitation, exclusion and inequalities, Narratives of Migrant and Refuge Discrimination in New Zealand will appeal to scholars across the humanities and social sciences with interests in migration and diaspora studies, race and ethnicity and refugee studies.

Book Crisis Leadership And Public Governance During The Covid 19 Pandemic  International Comparisons

Download or read book Crisis Leadership And Public Governance During The Covid 19 Pandemic International Comparisons written by Anthony Bing Leung Cheung and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2023-03-10 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores various issues and challenges emanating from the COVID-19 pandemic. It examines how governments worldwide have dealt with the pandemic. Post-COVID-19 and its disruptive impact on social and economic life as well as public and political attitudes, the world is not the same. A new normal has dawned in public management and public services, with immense implications. This volume collects the lessons drawn from the pandemic, notably how crisis leadership and public governance were used to combat the crisis, as well as which aspects were helpful in that regard. This book covers a total of 17 countries and regions, namely: Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China (Mainland), Hong Kong, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, The Netherlands, the Nordic Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland), the UK and US. Special attention is drawn to China (Mainland) in particular, where the pandemic first broke out. Its subsequent efforts in suppressing the epidemic have been quite stunning. The range enables good international comparisons to be made in crisis leadership, response strategies and effectiveness across continents, systems, and cultures (East Asia, Oceania, Europe and North America). While the pandemic is still ongoing by the time the book is finalized, the experience gained over more than two years has provided good ground for lesson drawing.
