Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le défi le plus grand en ce 21e siècle est de faire en sorte que chaque habitant de la planète puisse vivre longtemps, en bonne santé, en ayant la possibilité de s'épanouir, d'être à l'abri de la pauvreté et de participer pleinement à la vie de la communauté qui l'entoure. La Déclaration du Millénaire signée en 2000 par 189 pays fixe clairement les objectifs à remplir en vue de réduire la pauvreté et d'autres causes de souffrances humaines et de promouvoir un développement durable. Mais où en sommes-nous de la réalisation de ces objectifs ? Quelles sont les ressources nécessaires pour aider les pays qui sont loin du compte ? Le troisième volume de la série, le miniAtlas des objectifs de développement pour le Millénaire, se veut un guide pratique sur les défis les plus pressants dans le domaine du développement. Sous une forme claire et accessible, il présente des cartes en couleur et des illustrations attrayantes qui sont une mine d'informations sur les grands enjeux actuels pour plus de 200 pays et territoires, de l'élimination de la pauvreté et de la réduction de la mortalité infantile à l'éradication du VIH/SIDA et à la protection de l'environnement. Conçu pour présenter des informations détaillées dans un petit format, le miniAtlas des objectifs de développement pour le Millénaire est un aide-mémoire et un guide pratique pour mieux comprendre les principaux enjeux auxquels le monde est confronté aujourd'hui.
Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Bondage and Human Rights in Africa and Asia written by Gwyn Campbell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the West, human bondage remains synonymous with the Atlantic slave trade. But large slave systems in Africa and Asia predated, co-existed, and overlapped with the Atlantic system—and have persisted in modified forms well into the twenty-first century, posing major threats to political and economic stability within those regions and worldwide. This handbook examines the deep historical roots of unfree labour in Africa and Asia along with its contemporary manifestations. It takes an innovative longue durée perspective in order to link the local and global, the past and present. Contributors trace shifting forms of forced labour in the region since circa 1800, connecting punctual shocks such as environmental crisis, conflict, market instability, and crop failure to human security threats such as impoverishment, violence, migration, kidnapping, and enslavement. Together, these chapters illuminate the historical and contemporary dimensions of bondage in Africa and Asia, with important implications for the fight against modern-day bondage and human trafficking.

Download or read book Educational Planning written by Jacques Hallak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was in a context of unprecedented economic growth that educational planning developed in the 1960s. At the time, educational planners were entrusted with orchestrating the tremendous expansion of schooling, with the aim of both universalizing education and providing national economies with the qualified manpower needed. Such rigid mandatory planning is not suited to today's world, but other forms of planning such as policy analysis, policy dialog, labor market analysis, and strategic management are still valid. The following is a complete list of reprinted essays collected for this book.

Book excerpt: "This revised edition is not an expanded version of the original, summarizing, for example, the dozens of studies that hve been made of the productivity of various subpopulations of the "Giant Canada Goose" since its rediscovery. Rather, the main objectives of this revised, slightly enlarged edition are to redefine the range of this race as it was originally understood and to correct earlier assumptions based on the literature as to racial identity of peripheral populations."--Page xvii.
