  • COVID-19 Camp Vulnerability Index As of 04 May 2020
    IRAQ COVID-19 Camp Vulnerability Index As of 04 May 2020 The aim of this vulnerability index is to understand the capacity of camps to deal with the impact of a COVID-19 outbreak, understanding the camp as a single system composed of sub-units. The components of the index are: exposure to risk, system vulnerabilities (population and infrastructure), capacity to cope with the event and its consequences, and finally, preparedness measures. For this purpose, databases collected between August 2019 and February 2020 have been analysed, as well as interviews with camp managers (see sources next to indicators), a total of 27 indicators were selected from those databases to compose the index. For purpose of comparing the situation on the different camps, the capacity and vulnerability is calculated for each camp in the country using the arithmetic average of all the IRAQ indicators (all indicators have the same weight). Those camps with a higher value are considered to be those that need to be strengthened in order to be prepared for an outbreak of COVID-19. Each indicator, according to its relevance and relation to the humanitarian standards, has been evaluated on a scale of 0 to 100 (see list of indicators and their individual assessment), with 100 being considered the most negative value with respect to the camp's capacity to deal with COVID-19.

  • Iraq: Opposition to the Government in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI)
    Country Policy and Information Note Iraq: Opposition to the government in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) Version 2.0 June 2021 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the Introduction section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis and assessment of COI and other evidence; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment of, in general, whether one or more of the following applies: • A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm • The general humanitarian situation is so severe as to breach Article 15(b) of European Council Directive 2004/83/EC (the Qualification Directive) / Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iii) of the Immigration Rules • The security situation presents a real risk to a civilian’s life or person such that it would breach Article 15(c) of the Qualification Directive as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iv) of the Immigration Rules • A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) • A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory • A claim is likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and • If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.

  • Complex, Bloody Bond for Safety on Public
    Volume 79, No. 55B ©SS 2020 CONTINGENCY EDITION SUNDAY, JULY 5, 2020 stripes.com Free to Deployed Areas VIRUS OUTBREAK Governors put onus Complex, bloody bond for safety on public BY KIMBERLEE KRUESI Associated Press NASHVILLE, Tenn. — As Tennessee registered what then was its highest single-day coro- navirus case increase, Gov. Bill Lee held a news conference and issued a stern response. It wasn’t a mandate to wear masks in public or clamp down on businesses or social gatherings. Instead, it was a plea for residents to do the right thing. “When we have people dying in this state as a result of this virus, we should be taking personal re- sponsibility for this,” the Republi- can governor said. It was the same message Lee issued in late March as the COVID-19 disease was beginning to spread. He has vowed to stick to the personal responsibility mantra, with no plans to reinstate stay-at-home restrictions or im- pose statewide mandates — even as photos of unmasked people crowding bars and outdoor con- certs across Tennessee spread across social media. Instead, Lee signed an execu- tive order Friday that allows local officials to issue their own mask mandates if they want — as Nash- US, Russia share brutal history in Afghanistan ville and Memphis had already done. Elevating a message of person- al responsibility over statewide BY KATHY GANNON Now both superpowers are linked again country that does not serve as a base for crackdowns on businesses and Associated Press over Afghanistan, with intelligence re- extremists to export terrorism.

  • The Challenges and Opportunities of Agricultural Development in Iraqi Kurdistan
    land Article From Producers to Consumers: The Challenges and Opportunities of Agricultural Development in Iraqi Kurdistan Lina Eklund 1,*, Abdulhakim Abdi 2 and Mine Islar 3 1 Center for Middle Eastern Studies (CMES), Lund University, 223 62 Lund, Sweden 2 Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science, Lund University, 223 62 Lund, Sweden; [email protected] 3 Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies (LUCSUS), Lund University, 223 62 Lund, Sweden; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +46-46-222-9609 Academic Editors: Fabian Löw, Alexander Prishchepov and Florian Schierhorn Received: 28 April 2017; Accepted: 20 June 2017; Published: 22 June 2017 Abstract: Agriculture and rural life in the Middle East have gone through several changes in the past few decades. The region is characterized by high population growth, urbanization, and water scarcity, which poses a challenge to maintaining food security and production. This paper investigates agricultural and rural challenges in the Duhok governorate of Iraqi Kurdistan from biophysical, political, and socio-economic perspectives. Satellite data is used to study land use and productivity, while a review of government policies and interview data show the perspectives of the government and the local population. Our results reveal that these perspectives are not necessarily in line with each other, nor do they correspond well with the biophysical possibilities. While the government has been trying to increase agricultural productivity, satellite data show that yields have been declining since 2000. Furthermore, a lack of services in rural areas is driving people to cities to seek better opportunities, which means that the local population’s incentive to increase agricultural activity is low.

By the aid of our supporter, the Assyrian Education Process continued and we were able to cover the transportation and lecturers' costs, printing the curriculum, distributing stationary to the students and supplying the schools with its necessary needs to ensure the continuation of the Process. Here we must pay tribute to our supporters, specially the Assyrian Aid Society of America by covering a large proportion of the Assyrian Education deficit through several payments, as well as the support the Assyrian Aid Society of Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Our Society was able to organize several relief programs for our People coming as refugees from Syria, by the support of AASA, AAS-Au, AAS-Ca, AAS Germany and AAS Sweden, as well as the other Societies and Organizations, as: SALT Foundation from Holland, the Evangelical Lutheran Churches from Germany and the Assyrian National Council of Illinois.
