The notification role is usually played by health institutions and birth attendants, and in a limited number of cases by a local government official, such as a village chief. The notification report has no value other than as a control, and it cannot be turned into a legal registration record.

I am Matthew Gannon, and I will be your Chairman. I am a first-year student at UGA and originally from Valdosta, Georgia. I am pursuing a degree in Finance. This is my first year on the Model United Nations team, and first year chairing a committee. I am also President of the Mell-Lipscomb Community Council. My co-chair, Romello Robinson, is currently a 1st year student at the University of Georgia. He is a dual-major student majoring in history and political science, with a minor in philosophy. He is on the pre-law track here at UGA, and aspires to become a criminal/defense attorney. This is his first year ever doing Model United Nations. Other clubs that he is affiliated with is the Black Male Leadership Society and Georgia Dazes, as well as part of the freshmen council for the United Black Student Legal Association. Outside of university interest, he enjoys to work out at the student fitness center. While the topics discussed will not be sensitive or highly controversial, you are expected to conduct yourselves in a mature and professional manner. Do your best to represent your countries, but also understand that there is a line between role-play and prejudice. Sexism, racism, or any other breaches of decorum outside of the bounds of role-play will not be tolerated.

  • Country Overview Politics Economy Social/Human Development
    Chad Country Overview Politics Chad is a presidential republic in central Africa. In 2011, President Idriss Deby was reelected to his fourth term in office in an election that occurred without incident. The terrorist group Boko Haram has been operating within Chad, and the government imposed a state of emergency in the Lake Chad region in 2015 after multiple attacks.1 The United Nations reported that the extremist group remains a threat in the region in 2017.2 Over nine million people reportedly needed urgent humanitarian assistance in 2016.3 Economy Chad is classified as a low‐income country by the World Bank.4 The country’s GDP grew by 1.8 percent in 2015. Chad is heavily dependent on oil; the oil price collapse in 2015 combined with a drought and increasing security concerns had major detrimental effects on the country’s economy.5 Social/Human Development Chad is ethnically diverse; there are over 18 ethnic groups in Chad, most of which make up small percentages of the population. The most predominant ethnic groups include: Sara (25.9 percent), Arab (12.6 percent). Kanembu/Bornu/Buduma (8.3 percent), Wadai/Maba/Massalit/Mimi (7 percent), and Gorane (6.8 percent). Though French and Arabic are the official languages, there are over 120 different languages and dialects spoken throughout the country. An estimated 58 percent of the population is Muslim, while another 18.5 percent are Catholic and 16 percent are Protestant.6 As of 2011, 46.7 percent of the population lives below the poverty line.7 Chad ranks as one of the least developed countries in the world, with a Human Development Index score of 0.396 for 2016 and a ranking of 186 out of 188 countries.8 1 U.S.

    [PEACEW RKS [ DÉBY’S CHAD POLITICAL MANIPULATION AT HOME, MILITARY INTERVENTION ABROAD, CHALLENGING TIMES AHEAD Jérôme Tubiana and Marielle Debos ABOUT THE REPORT This report examines Chad’s political system, which has kept President Idriss Déby in power for twenty-seven years, and recent foreign policy, which is most notable for a series of regional military interventions, to assess the impact of domestic politics on Chad’s current and future regional role—and vice versa. A joint publication of the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) and the Institute for Security Studies (ISS), the report is derived from several hundred interviews conducted in Chad, the Central African Republic, Niger, France, and other countries, between October 2015 and October 2017 as well as desk research. Unless otherwise cited, statements in this report are drawn from these interviews. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Jérôme Tubiana is a researcher who specializes in Chad, Sudan, and South Sudan. He has conducted numerous field research missions in conflict areas for various organizations, most notably the Small Arms Survey and the International Crisis Group. His publications include two studies on Darfur for USIP, a book on the Darfur conflict (Chroniques du Darfour, 2010), and various articles in Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, the London Review of Books, and Le Monde diplomatique. Marielle Debos is an associate professor in political science at the University Paris Nanterre and a member of the Institute for Social Sciences of Politics. Before her appointment at Nanterre, she was a Marie Curie fellow at the University of California, Berkeley.

I would also like to acknowledge his prompt feedback. Without his effort and the knowledge he gave me during my three years of study, this research paper would not have been chosen and worked on. Finally, I would also like to express my gratitude to Mr Omari Mohamed, Miss Nadia Mansouri, and Miss Oumeyma Kerthiou for the knowledge they instilled in me. i Dedication I dedicate this work to my beloved mother who made me who I‟m today, and to my dear brothers and sisters. I would also like to dedicate this piece of work to my friends Daoud Abdelkerim Hamad, Hassan Ahmat Djamaladine, and Bokhit Bichara Nassour. ii Abstract The present research paper aims to work out the progressive language shift that is taking place within the Beri youth. Most young Beria speakers‟ discussions take place in local Arabic. Many issues were explored in this piece of work. The main concerned issues are: The reason behind code-switching, language maintenance, and language attitude. The last issue tackled is to find out if Beria is fading away.
