  • 2016 Annual Report
    2016 Annual Report www.friendshipforce.org 1 Letter from Jeremi Longtime Friendship Force members have probably heard every quip, quote, and anecdote related to the immense value one gains by expanding their worldview and understanding of other cultures. Many people motivated by these types of expressions work toward the admirable and worthwhile goal of traveling abroad by any means. But these expressions can only take you as far as someone’s front door. The difference between a standard traveler and a Friendship Force member is that our members walk through that door and find new friends waiting. Earlier this year, Friendship Force International debuted a new tagline that fits the unique opportunity our organization provides to people around the world. For many, Experience Different Views. Discover Common Ground has become more of a call to action rather than just a tagline. In our quest to continue to evolve as global citizens, we know we must go beyond the threshold of one’s front door and into the spaces where people live day-to-day - where the nuances in their lives are most evident. That space is where they prepare their meals, talk with family and friends, share their art or their music. In other words, it is the place where lasting connections are made. But the world is changing, and with it, the boundaries of cultural tolerances. While our mission remains incredibly relevant throughout these changes, Friendship Force International is not immune to the demands imposed by rapidly evolving technology, global business development, and major world events. Each shift requires our organization to embrace new ways of continuing to offer this simple concept of peace through friendship, and indeed, we are.

  • Structural Separation in Regulated Industries: 2016 Report
    Structural separation in regulated industries Report on implementing the OECD Recommendation 2016 Structural separation in regulated industries Report on implementing the OECD Recommendation 2016 This work is published under the responsibility of the Secretary-General of the OECD.

This document and any map included herein are without prejudice to the status or sovereignty over any territory, to the delimitation of international frontiers and boundaries and to the name of any territory, city, or area. Please cite this publication as: OECD (2016), Structural separation in regulated industries: Report on implementing the OECD Recommendation © OECD 2016 3 Foreword On 26 April 2001, the OECD Council adopted a Recommendation Concerning Structural Separation in Regulated Industries suggesting to OECD countries that when regulated firms have activities that are potentially competitive and linked to non-competitive activities, such as natural monopoly activities, governments should consider the benefits and costs of structural measures separating two activities. The Recommendation was accompanied by a detailed report, and both advocated careful consideration of the potential pros and cons of structural separation versus the potential pros and cons of behavioural measures. Since then, the OECD has conducted reviews of experience with structural separation in many countries and in a variety of sectors. The sectors have always included electricity, gas, railways and telecommunications, in addition to other sectors. In 2011, the Recommendation was modified to ensure that potential impacts on investment are taken into account when the possible appropriateness of structural separation is considered.

  • Latvian Foreign and Security Policy Yearbook 2016
    LATVIAN FOREIGN AND SECURITY POLICY YEARBOOK 2016 Rīga 2016 The Latvian Institute of International Affairs (LIIA) continues to provide an annual assessment of Latvian foreign and security policy. The Latvian Foreign and Security Policy Yearbook 2016 aims to contribute to the understanding of Latvia’s foreign and security policy decisions and considerations, along with opportunities and concerns for 2016. During the 2015 Latvia assumed a six month presidency of the Council of the European Union, moving Latvia into the centre of European events. However, 2015 has been a very challenging year for the European Union, Transatlantic community and the world security in general, and Latvia in particular. The ongoing crises in the world will continue to pose threats to stability in the region and the world, therefore, it is crucial that Latvia makes the best possible foreign and security policy decisions in 2016. This publication is an effort of the Latvian Institute of International Affairs with support by Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung.
