Regardless of the social and familial effects of this phenomenon, some men still prac- tice it and some women agree with it. But it remains con- troversial, and many women and men do not support the idea, although its debate is provocative for women and exciting for men! Polygamy raises the question: Can a married man who remarries be truly equitable and just to all his wives? Is he ever thinking of their welfare or only aiming to satisfy his desires? This article seeks to shed light over this case based on two incidents. Newspapers recently published a report A popular mural in Souq Al-Mubarakiya in Kuwait City. — Photo by Jaber Abdukhaleq / KUNA from Saudi Arabia that police arrested a woman who poured boiling oil on her husband after he married anoth- er woman.

  • Incident at Chimp Eden(Release)
    Jane Goodall Institute South Africa (JGI SA) Media Statement Incident at Chimp Eden has sad outcome Thursday, 8 May 2014 Margi Brocklehurst, managing executive of the Jane Goodall Institute South Africa (JGI SA), today confirmed that an employee of the Jane Goodall Chimp Eden sanctuary in Nelspruit, Mpumulanga, was attacked by a chimpanzee at the sanctuary on Friday, 25 April 2014. Commenting on the incident Brocklehurst said that while the employee had been badly injured he had been discharged from hospital and is recuperating at home. She commended the staff of Chimp Eden on their effective handling of the situation, which not only saved the life of the injured employee but also ensured that no further harm came to any humans, chimpanzees or other animals at the sanctuary. “I wish to thank our team for their swift and efficient action, which ensured that the victim received medical assistance in record time.” According to Brocklehurst, strict protocols are in place for the management of incidents at the sanctuary and staff are fully trained in the effective handling of situations such as these. She added that the attack was unprovoked and took place while a team of employees was checking the enclosure fences. Two male chimpanzees in their early twenties, charged the fences and despite being shocked by an electric current, one chimp managed to scale the fence to attack the employee. The other chimp was fortunately not able to escape from the enclosure. She said the behaviour of the chimps is of tremendous concern to the staff and management of Chimp Eden and JGI SA as it was the second time the pair attacked an individual.

I loved to watch WBill Cosby and his perfect family, and over the years, this memory remained in my mind, until it crashed when the actor was accused of sexual harassment and with the testimony of many women about his behavior over the years. Recently, a major Hollywood film producer named Harvey Weinstein was accused by several female actresses of sexual harassment in return for giving them roles in his films. As a producer, he had the upper hand, but not anymore. What is the situation in Middle Eastern societies, which some people like to describe as conservative and virtuous? Unfortunately, it is worse and darker than what we assume or hope, because sexual harassment has a contradiction between the East and the West.

  • Chimpanzees, Conservation, and Community: an Analysis of the Jane Goodall Institute’S Triangle Approach
    CHIMPANZEES, CONSERVATION, AND COMMUNITY: AN ANALYSIS OF THE JANE GOODALL INSTITUTE’S TRIANGLE APPROACH by Briana Litchholt A capstone submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental Sciences and Policy Baltimore, Maryland May 2021 © 2021 Briana Litchholt All Rights Reserved Abstract The illegal trafficking of great apes is a complex, multi-billion dollar industry that has resulted in dwindling wild chimpanzee populations through activities such as poaching for bushmeat and the pet trade. The Jane Goodall Institute created an integrative strategy called the Triangle Approach to combat great ape trafficking and promote the conservation of chimpanzees. This paper synthesizes information on each aspect of the Triangle Approach, as well as its successes, through data provided by the Jane Goodall Institute and interviews with staff and directors. The three strategies of the Triangle Approach are environmental education and awareness, law enforcement, and chimpanzee sanctuary work. This holistic approach has informed citizens on the illegality of wildlife trafficking and its harm to chimpanzees through leadership sessions, billboards, television shows, and radio broadcasts. Additionally, the Triangle Approach integrates the best-in-class welfare standards of chimpanzee sanctuaries that have contributed to knowledge on chimpanzee health and behavior, as well as the creation of a novel standard welfare index to ensure that chimpanzees in captivity are receiving the best possible care. Overall, this unique strategy has promoted the conservation of chimpanzees, improved captive welfare of great apes, and serves as a model for other organizations looking to effectively tackle the root causes of wildlife trafficking.

This pandemic has impacted industries and communities all around the world at a speed, scale and severity that no-one could have foreseen. While scientists race to decode the virus and develop a vaccine, governments and businesses are working hard to find the best approach to protect lives, while protecting livelihoods. Globally, travel and aviation are amongst the most impacted industries as countries close borders, suspend flights, and impose stringent travel restrictions as part of their pandemic containment measures. Crises often bring out the best in people, acting as catalysts for selfless giving and collaboration across borders. In this regard, the UAE continues to do everything it can to support the international community in its fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. As of April 2020, the UAE has donated more than 450 tonnes of aid to 27 countries in Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas. 2 OVERVIEW EMIRATES DNATA GROUP FINANCIAL INFORMATION ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In the UAE, we have always regarded Dubai’s aim is to create a prosperous city ourselves as part of a global community. for future generations, where everyone We’re a nation that welcomes the world can achieve their dreams and aspirations, to visit, live, work, study, or collaborate on contribute their talent and innovation, access projects that contribute to human progress.
