  • A RAMSI Case Study
    THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT: Answering Civil Conflict in the 21st Century – A RAMSI Case Study The Way Forward to Ensuring the Right to Life, Liberty and Security of All Lucy Pearson SID: 306162016 GOVT IV Honours Thesis Department of Government and International Relations Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney Australia Word Count: 19,742 1 ABSTRACT This thesis will attempted to analyse the Responsibility to Protect, whether the doctrine has a future in the workings of the international system as an effective mechanism for conflict resolution and for consensus on issues that surround violations of life, liberty and security of person. The R2P is acknowledged as a very new doctrine, the that has its fair share of warranted criticism and a long way to go before it becomes customary law in the international system. Through an in-depth analysis of the Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands, the thesis aimed to highlight the potential of the R2P in addressing modern conflict situations and providing long standing stability through committed assistance in capacity development. Despite failures in the RAMSI intervention, and the relatively small scale nature, it stands as a significant success in implementation of the R2P and exemplifies the doctrine‟s potential in application. At its base the R2P demonstrates a powerful normative shift towards the protection of the fundamental human rights of all people, and a shift away from traditional understandings of sovereignty as absolute. 2 For Louise, who was a champion of human rights her whole life and who fought for a better world where everyone could see the right to life, liberty and security of person.

Our ancestors’ were acutely aware of this, and they developed many intricate customs and traditions relating to the ownership and use of Lauru’s natural resources. Although many of our worthy traditions and customs persist, today our island of Lauru is faced with a growing number of threats. Rapid population growth and our entry into the global cash economy have dramatically increased pressure on our natural resources.

  • TUESDAY 2ND SEPTEMBER 2008 the Speaker, Sir Peter Kenilorea
    TUESDAY 2ND SEPTEMBER 2008 The Speaker, Sir Peter Kenilorea took the Chair at 9.30am. Prayers. ATTENDANCE At prayers, all were present with the exception of the Ministers for Mines and Minerals and Rural Electrification, Agriculture and Livestock, Development Planning and Aid Coordination, Foreign Affairs and the Members for Shortlands, Central Makira, North‐ West Choiseul, East Makira, West Guadalcanal, North Guadalcanal, Central Honiara, Malaita Outer Islands, West New Georgia/Vona Vona, West Are Are and South Vella Lavella. SPEAKER’S ANNOUNCEMENTS Mr Speaker: Honourable Members before we proceed with today’s business, I wish to inform the honourable House of a number of procedural matters outlined in the circular to Members by the honourable Prime Minister and which relates to the desire for this House to congratulate, encourage and support the Solomon Islands National Futsal Soccer Team which will participate in the coming 7th FIFA Futsal World Cup to be held in Brazil later this month. Yesterday, the honourable Prime Minister gave notice of a congratulatory motion. He desires to move today, in recognition of this remarkable achievement, the motion that appears in the Notice Paper. Although the motion does not comply with the usual notice requirement, the Speaker yesterday granted leave under Standing Order 26(1) for the honourable Prime Minister to move this motion in today’s sitting. Members of the National Futsal Soccer Team are present with us today but will need to leave shortly to prepare for their departure this afternoon as they head to Brazil. There is therefore need for us to deal with the honourable Prime Minister’s motion straight away rather than following the usual order of business.

  • Solomon Islands
    SOLOMON ISLANDS THE NATIONAL BIODIVERSITY STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN 2016 - 2020 (Building a unified, vibrant and an informed Solomon Islands) Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, Disaster Management & Meteorology Foreword The predominantly subsistence lifestyle that characterises the Solomon Islands economy is underpinned by the country’s heavy reliance on its biological diversity or biodiversity. The importance of biodiversity as the basis for the people’s livelihood and wellbeing is therefore recognised by the Solomon Island Government. Beyond just the direct benefits such as provision of food, fresh water and revenue generation gained from the use of biodiversity, the regulating services provided by the country’s biodiversity helps us by protecting us from natural disasters and enable us to adapt to an ever challenging environment under today’s changing climate. Without biodiversity the country also loses its aesthetic, spiritual and educational values and significance, which are integral to our wellbeing and traditional way of life. Nonetheless, there is growing realisation that the country’s biodiversity is also under increasing pressure from multiple sources of threats, for example, from habitat loss, overexploitation and climate change. These pressures can be devastating for the health of the country’s biodiversity and, therefore our livelihood and wellbeing. The review and subsequent production of this National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP) 2016 to 2020 constitutes intensified and concerted efforts by the Government to respond to the challenges facing the country’s biodiversity. As a Party to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) since 1995, the Government is committed to implementing the decisions of the Conference of Parties to the CBD.

    FLAG RESEARCH QUARTERLY REVUE TRIMESTRIELLE DE RECHERCHE EN VEXILLOLOGIE JULY / JUILLET 2016 No. 9 ARTICLE A research publication of the North American Vexillological Association / Une publication de recherche de Flag Proportions: l‘Association nord-américaine de vexillologie Thoughts on Flag Families and Artistic Unity within Displays of Multiple Flags By Steven A. Knowlton and Adam C. Sales* The proportions of a flag are an integral part of a flag’s design. In some cases, the proportions are the only way to distinguish between otherwise identical flags, such as Monaco (16:21) and Indonesia (2:3).1 Bruce Nicolls notes that medieval flags were often square or even taller than they were wide, but the seventeenth century saw an increase of their widths, likely due to “the increasing use of flags at sea, where the additional length improved flying qualities and reduced the rate ALL OTHERS of fraying.”2 Today, almost all flags are rectangular and longer than they are tall. Aside from those common traits, however, flags display a remarkable diversity of proportions, as shown in 3:5 2:3 figure 1.

  • Moral Concepts Surrounding Flags—An Analysis
    2? Intemational Congress of Vexillologv FlagBerlin2007 Page 591 Alexandra Dan Mandru: Moral Concepts surrounding Flags - an Analysis Abstract: Starting with thefirst Latin vexilli, and ending with the modern, diagonal- lined ensigns, flags have always contained a heavy load of morality and philosophy, bearing symbols ofgreat importance for their using body. This is the reason why the burning offlags is considered today as an act of great defying, against the entity which uses the flag. This paper contains a research of how are the moral principles reflected in flags, the manner in which an idea can be vexillologically illustrated within a piece of cloth. 1. Introduction: Essential Values and Principles reflected in Flags The existence of a flag is a consequence of a certain degree of sovereignty, independence or autonomy. Thus, a certain degree of self- reliance of the using body (whether it is a country, a territory or a corporation) is asserted within the simple bearing of the flag. This paper presents a new approach, regarding the moral content existing in flags. The range of moral concepts which will be analysed encompasses values, principles and abstract ideas, which find a way of concretisation with their appearance in flags. The colours tell much about the meaning of a flag. They can mean patriotism, the blood shed for the fatherland or love for one’s territory (red), or the connection with nature, faith, even mineral wealth (green). Nationalism is an important element in flags. The flags which express a nationalist attitude are charged with traditional colours, national symbols, etc. they can’t be used otherwise than as a national symbol.
