  • Sustainable Sanitation – a Case Study in Yasmine and Awda Informal Settlements (Lebanon)
    Master's Thesis 2019 30 ECTS Faculty of Environmental Sciences and Natural Resource Management Sustainable sanitation – A case study in Yasmine and Awda informal settlements (Lebanon) Elisa Winger Eggen Master of Science in Water and Environmental Technology (M-VM) PREFACE This MSc thesis is my final work of the Master of Science in Water- and Environmental Technology at Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU). The research is based on fieldwork undertaken from the 27th of January until the 3rd of March 2019 in Bekaa Valley, Bar Elias, Lebanon, aimed to find sustainable sanitation solutions in two refugee camps. The study has been carried out in close collaboration with Norwegian Church Aid (NCA), International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) and Multiconsult. My motivation for this thesis was based on a desire to choose a research topic that could be meaningful for others, and my interest in water and sanitation in developing countries. I sincerely hope this will contribute to improvements and implementation of a holistic sanitation system which will benefit the people in the studied camps. Ås, May 14th, 2019 Elisa Winger Eggen I II ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Working on this thesis has been exciting, challenging and educational. There is a lot of effort invested in the final version of the thesis, and the learning process to this point has been invaluable. Many have contributed to this work, whom I will like to thank; First and foremost, my deepest gratitude goes to my main supervisor, Professor Petter D. Jenssen, for his enormous inspiration, engagement, valuable feedback and support along the way. I would also like to thank Tor Valla (Multiconsult), Ioannis Georgiadis (NCA) and Manfred Arlt (NCA) for introducing me to this project in Lebanese refugee camps, where my education would be relevant and applied in practice.

  • Faldo Series Phuket Honours for Rugby School Golf Scholars
    For Immediate Release October 3, 2019 Phuket, Thailand Faldo Series Phuket Honours for Rugby School Golf Scholars Caption: Ollie Bates (Director of Golf at British International School Phuket - host school) with Nilubol Panno (Girls’ Under-16) and Thonsaeng Nunya (Boys’ Under-16). Phuket, Thailand (October 3): Rugby School Thailand’s golfing scholars stole the show at the inaugural Faldo Series Phuket. Thonsaeng ‘Nua’ Nunya led the charge with a trio of successes in the 36-hole event, the first in a series of three qualifiers staged in conjunction with international schools in Thailand. With rounds of 68 and 71 at Laguna Golf Phuket, Thonsaeng topped the standings in the Boys’ Under-16 category, edging out British International School Phuket’s Sebastian Sawtell, the pre-tournament favourite. Thonsaeng’s three-under-par total of 139 also ensured that he claimed overall honours. For good measure, he combined with Rugby School Thailand team-mates Intuch ‘In’ Srisuriyachai and Jakkarin ‘Son’ Jitmaneekan to clinch victory in the Boys’ Team Division. A posting on the school’s website paid tribute to their efforts. “All five students represented the school in an exemplary manner and were a credit to Rugby School Thailand. Congratulations to them all for fantastic performances.” Also in celebratory mood was 16-year-old Nilubol ‘Bosshy’ Panno, who once more displayed her liking for the award-winning layout. For Immediate Release October 3, 2019 Phuket, Thailand Winner of the Girls’ Under-16 title in last year’s Faldo Series Thailand Championship – South at Laguna Golf Phuket and tied seventh in the same category at the 13th Faldo Series Asia Grand Final, the Phuket PALS School student posted a two-round total of 146 to finish as the leading female.

Welcome to Asia’s wildest restaurants. Text by Richard Baimbridge THIS REGION HAS always been known for its exotic cuisine, but lately a few innovative restaurateurs have taken things to a whole new level. In response to the very modern dilemma, “What shall we have for dinner?” people are getting increasingly creative (or perhaps desperate), and sometimes, downright bizarre. Maybe you’ve heard of some of the more common ones: dining in the dark and being served by waiters in night vision goggles; sushi served on a naked body; restaurants where guests are attended to by coddling Japanese nannies or vampires, your choice. So if you’re sitting at home tonight, or perusing the guidebook listings in your hotel room, thinking that Italian/ French/Mexican/Chinese/Fusion/ Japanese just sounds too humdrum, and your palate is yearning for true excitement, read on.
