Beyond the Scoreboard Youth Employement Opportunities And BEYOND THE SCOREBOARD Youth employment opportunities and skills development in the sports sector I would like to take this opportunity to underscore the importance of the topics discussed in this book, as they are key issues in the global economy today: youth employment and skills development. They represent the new frontier for both development and peace building. What is needed in the global economy is strong professionalism, life skills and dedication. The sports sector, the subject of this book, is essential for a balanced approach to life and relationships. Sport provides a neutral ground to discuss issues that are often controversial, such as the local and global economy, HIV/AIDS prevention, physical literacy and education, and social inclusion of youth. For the above reasons, the contributions that make up this book illustrate the challenges related to the sports sector, as well as opportunities for new services, training and jobs for youth. This research is part of a much broader framework supported by the ILO/Universitas programme, which brings together academic institutions, private and public stakeholders and the tripartite social partners, along with local and global organizations, to develop methodologies for decent work to address youth employment and social inclusion. I am very proud that this programme is supported by the Development Cooperation, Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

It underlines the importance of giving young people the opportunity to promote social and economic development through sport to help create a better world. Education plays a vital role in a young person’s life. Sport is “the best school of life”, teaching basic values and life skills that are important for the holistic and well-balanced development of younger generations. Honesty, fair play, self-confidence, mutual respect, adherence to rules and how to cope with victories as well as defeats are all examples of the values connected to the immense resource that is sport. Since my appointment as Special Adviser to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 2001, I am mandated to consult with the UN agencies, programmes and funds engaged in development, peace-making and peace-building, in order to identify programmes and tasks that could benefit from the involvement of sport organizations. Resolution 60/9, adopted by the General Assembly on 3 November 2005, recalls the importance of sport as a means to promote education, health, development and peace.* It also invites governments, as well as the UN system, to seek new and innovative ways to use sport for communication and social mobilization, and to develop strategic partnerships with the wide range of stakeholders involved in “sport at all levels”. The International Year of Sport and Physical Education (IYSPE 2005) has provided an opportunity for key sports players to meet with the world of * UN General Assembly resolution A/RES/60/9, in force 17 Jan. 2006. v Beyond the scoreboard development. These players have responded to the international community’s call with concrete policy and project initiatives. The ILO has carried out an outstanding review, using the 358 existing sport and development projects of the UN System, the European Union and NGOs as a reference to identify the sport community’s values and the core skills. It is important at this stage to benefit from the lessons learned so far. This volume contributes highly to general awareness by discussing the positive effects that sport has on our communities and the numerous challenges that sport itself will face in the future. The outstanding quality of contributions demonstrates the serious commitment of the international, governmental and academic community in encouraging sport as a means to promote education, health, development and peace. vi PREFACE by Djibril Diallo, Director, United Nations New York Office of the Special Advisor to the Secretary-General on Sport for Development and Peace The authors of this book, differing in their regional backgrounds and experiences, share the rationale that sport can play an influential role in positively shaping the lives of youth in both developed and developing countries. In Africa, Latin America, Europe and elsewhere, thorough analysis by experts indicates that civil society and governments must engage and foster the development of youth in the sports sector to create quality jobs for them, to improve their skills and ultimately achieve sustainable development through sport. The authors of this book have illustrated that development of sporting activities under the necessary conditions of transparency is found to be dependent on national public policies. However, sport and particularly physical education are in need of additional budgetary support if the sector is to develop youth nationwide. This is far from the case in most of the selected countries. Global and regional partnerships are necessary to promote sport and its related industries. In Europe, the completion of a global collective agreement at the European Union level, specific to the sports sector, would help facilitate the creation of quality jobs in sport and include the stakeholders as part of a unique strategic approach. Countries in Latin America such as Peru and El Salvador, which share common cultural elements, can use sport to build upon their similarities and history while promoting development. Sports events can create growth in the local economies and related industries, and attract tourists and foreign investments. Likewise, in Africa, collaborative approaches are necessary to create a viable sports sector. If the East African Community created a wider market by strengthening ties between Kenya, Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania, greater financial resources would be available to develop sport infra- structures. Given East Africa’s geographical location and favourable climate, vii Beyond the scoreboard and established attractive wildlife reserves and tourist resorts, the area is well suited to host major international sporting events and serve as the region’s athletics centre. The East African culture and the record of sport performances, particularly in track and field, would further attract international competitions into the region,

  • Jordan Navigates Border Trade, Pressures from Syria | The
    MENU Policy Analysis / Fikra Forum Jordan Navigates Border Trade, Pressures from Syria by Shehab Al-Makahleh Jul 24, 2018 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS Shehab Al-Makahleh Shehab Al-Makahleh is a senior media and policy consultant in Jordan and the United Arab Emirates. Al-Makahleh has been working for several Middle Eastern countries as a political, military and security expert. Brief Analysis f all the bilateral ties between Arab states, the Jordanian-Syrian relationship has been among the most O intense. Various gradations of reciprocal unfriendliness and even open animosity have characterized the two countries’ ties since the 1970s, reflecting the rise of the Ba’ath party and Hafez al-Assad. However, recent economic instabilities pushed Jordan to approach the Syrian war in an unexpectedly neutral manner, and these same economic concerns may push the Hashemite Kingdom closer to the Assad regime in the near future. A thaw in the “Cold War” between Amman and Damascus has materialized, ostensibly neutralizing many years of conflict. The apparent recent successes of Bashar al-Assad's regime in recapturing much of Southwest Syria raises the question of what lies in the future for the Jordanian-Syrian relationship, especially given probable intimations that Damascus is unhappy with where the relationship currently stands. Throughout the conflict, Jordan was unsurprisingly more anxious about safeguarding its own domestic resilience than the persistence or collapse of the Syrian regime. The Kingdom has repeatedly pursued regional and international political settlement attempts to end the Syrian conflict, as Amman foresaw the potentially subverting influence of a protracted war on its borders.

  • Jerusalem: City of Dreams, City of Sorrows
    1 JERUSALEM: CITY OF DREAMS, CITY OF SORROWS More than ever before, urban historians tell us that global cities tend to look very much alike. For U.S. students. the“ look alike” perspective makes it more difficult to empathize with and to understand cultures and societies other than their own. The admittedly superficial similarities of global cities with U.S. ones leads to misunderstandings and confusion. The multiplicity of cybercafés, high-rise buildings, bars and discothèques, international hotels, restaurants, and boutique retailers in shopping malls and multiplex cinemas gives these global cities the appearances of familiarity. The ubiquity of schools, university campuses, signs, streetlights, and urban transportation systems can only add to an outsider’s “cultural and social blindness.” Prevailing U.S. learning goals that underscore American values of individualism, self-confidence, and material comfort are, more often than not, obstacles for any quick study or understanding of world cultures and societies by visiting U.S. student and faculty.1 Therefore, international educators need to look for and find ways in which their students are able to look beyond the veneer of the modern global city through careful program planning and learning strategies that seek to affect the students in their “reading and learning” about these fertile centers of liberal learning. As the students become acquainted with the streets, neighborhoods, and urban centers of their global city, their understanding of its ways and habits is embellished and enriched by the walls, neighborhoods, institutions, and archaeological sites that might otherwise cause them their “cultural and social blindness.” Jerusalem is more than an intriguing global historical city.

  • Hulu Rsns FINAL
    SINCLAIR REGIONAL SPORTS NETWORKS DROPPED BY HULU Baltimore, Maryland – October 23, 2020 – Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBGI) reported today that Hulu has decided to drop Sinclair’s 21 regional sports network brands (RSN), YES Network and Marquee, depriving its subscribers of the excitement of watching their favorite local sports teams. While Sinclair attempted to come to an amicable and fair agreement, Hulu was not willing to provide the RSNs reasonable compensation for their valuable local sports content. Starting today, the FOX Regional Sports Networks are no longer available on Hulu and consumers will have to look elsewhere to access the content. Sinclair’s RSNs can be viewed on most major cable platforms as well as DirectTV and AT&T Now. “While we offered Hulu a deal consistent with terms agreed to by other distributors, the streaming service refused to accept these fair and market-based terms,” said Barry Faber, Sinclair’s president of distribution and network relations. “It is unfortunate that Hulu has chosen to take away some of the most popular sports programming on TV from millions of subscribers.” Hulu, owned by Disney, which also owns ESPN, was forced to sell the RSNs by the Department of Justice due to competitive reasons with ESPN. Hulu still carries ESPN and also agreed to carry another of its owner’s content, Comcast RSNs, but is refusing to carry Sinclair RSNs. RSNs that will no longer be offered on Hulu include FOX Sports Arizona, FOX Sports Ohio, Sports Time Ohio, FOX Sports Detroit, FOX Sports Wisconsin, FOX Sports North, FOX Sports Kansas City, FOX Sports Midwest, FOX Sports Indiana, FOX Sports Tennessee, FOX Sports Carolinas, FOX Sports Southeast, FOX Sports South, FOX Sports Florida, FOX Sports Sun, FOX Sports New Orleans, FOX Sports Oklahoma, FOX Sports Southwest and FOX Sports San Diego, Fox Sports West and Fox Sports Prime Ticket, YES Network, and Marquee.
