Our projects are designed to deliver psychosocial support, protection and education to children in various parts of Burundi. More than half of all refugees in Burundi Many have been separated from their parents and caregivers and have been forced to travel to safety alone. This particular group of children are exposed to significant risks — most markedly, the threat of sexual violence. Approximately 60 per cent of the , internally displaced persons IDPs in Burundi are children. Many are at risk of abuse, neglect and exploitation and are exposed to acute risks including physical injury, economic exploitation and, ultimately, death. War Child has worked in partnership with national NGOs in Burundi since and established its own operations there in We support children who are particularly at risk by strengthening community-based child protection structures. Our work to create safe and supportive environments provides a safe haven where children can process their experiences, rebuild confidence and trust and contribute towards a better future - both for themselves and their communities. Our project in Burundi, conducted in partnership with UNICEF, provides education, child protection and psychosocial support to over 51, people in five areas of Western Burundi. The majority The project focuses on the most vulnerable children — mostly IDPs, returnees, refugees, street children and children who do not have access to education. Many have reported instances of physical and domestic violence, psychological and sexual abuse and exploitation in their communities, both at home and at school. Children who are not in school are often at greatest risk. The projects is designed to reintegrate children into school by working with teaching staff on their professional development and training them in positive discipline. We work to meet the urgent needs of child refugees from neighbouring countries. Jany 9 from Rumonge province is the ninth of 10 children. To address this, we recently suggested to his parents that Jany participate in community activities in one of our Child Friendly Spaces in Rumonge. They agreed. We also visited them on several occasions to give them psychosocial support and to discuss the possibility of integrating Jany into the formal school system. His parents have started to accompany him to the Child Friendly Space where he joins group activities with other children and they take him to church and parties. He is no longer isolated at home and has just enrolled in primary school. His mother also supports the Child Protection Committee by giving advice to other parents who have similar children with disabilities.

Rebuilding social structures to protect children from violence and abuse - and improve their future prospects. Facts and figures Population: We collaborate with organisations across the world to ensure our work has maximum impact - and reaches the children who need it most. Graphic scenes of children brutalised by violence are among the defining images of our time. Yet the nature of armed conflict is becoming increasingly unpredictable. War Child works exclusively to improve the psychosocial wellbeing of children affected by conflict. Our integrated programmes combine psychosocial support, education and child protection for maximum impact. Each and every War Child programme around the world is subject to robust monitoring, evaluation and quality assurance. Fadi 12 was forced to flee the war in Syria when his hometown was bombed by armed forces. He now lives in Lebanon - where thousands of refugee children are denied access to quality education. War Child programmes continue to adhere to our Theory of Change ToC which guides the development and implementation of our Care System inside our countries of operation.

Then again, it seemed that the three words of the first and only review I read of this book said 'disappointing at best'. It involves a plague sweeping Bajor and our hero Doctor Bashir has to Some further musings on Deep Space 9 10 April Well, this seems to be the first DS9 book that does not involve Odo tracking down a murderer that is lose on the station. It involves a plague sweeping Bajor and our hero Doctor Bashir has to go and stop it. Unfortunately, despite being this wonderful doctor wanting to practice frontier medicine, he simply cannot do it without the help of Dax. I am not really sure about these characters in DS9. In a way DS9 is better because we are not seeing the standard goody two shoes Federation starships, but rather a frontier space station which is commanded by some decent people. They do play up the goodness of humanity, and to be honest I must admit that there is a lot of good in humanity which can be explored. However, in some ways they can be too good, almost to the extent of being just plain annoying such as Commander Ryker. DS9 tends to have a lot more intrigue, which is probably why they introduced Quark. It is great how through the use of Quark they have not only created a lot of intrigue, they have also created a character that simply can't be trusted. We also begin to see the rules of acquisition. They form the law of the Ferengi, in a similar way that the Ten Commandments form the legal foundation of Western Society though in many ways they are completely the opposite. One episode I recently watched had a young leader trying to solve a problem that her people were facing, and she meets up with Nog and Jake, and one of the ways they help her is with Nog teaching her about opportunity and the rules of acquisition. It is also sweet to see Jake teaching Nog how to read, which I still believe will really assist Nog in his life as an adult Ferengi. However, there are some disappointing ideas as well. In the same episode, we have a Bajoran village that is threatened by a nasty monster once a year and the only person who can control it is dying. We quickly discover that it is all a trick. Apparently the village was being torn about by factionalism, so the village leaders created this monster to unite the village. Personally, this sounds awfully like thought control to me. While it is a nice idea in principle, it really does seem, and is endorsed by the show, to deceive people into being one in mind to prevent hostility. However, in doing that it destroys our individuality and our personality. In a way, differences of opinion make us what we are, and while conflict can be destructive, in another way it helps us grow as individuals. Sep 01, Daniel rated it really liked it Shelves: science-fiction , star-trek. I had to give this one four stars if only for the fact that I didn't notice the subversion. It took me a hot minute to put the pieces together but it was long before the reveal. This did show more of Bajoran culture but it was sparse, I'm sure I won't be happy unless I read one that is filled with politics and intrigue. This is the first one that wasn't about a murderer on the station and I think that is the reason I liked this one so much. As they say verity is the spice of life. Quotes and comme I had to give this one four stars if only for the fact that I didn't notice the subversion. Quotes and comments: " 'It is sad,' the monk said quietly. The Cardassians' brutal rule was only one burden laid across their shoulders. Then the Bajoran resistance sought to to strike at the Cardassians by destroying their immediate food supplies. They burned crops, destroyed farming implement, and in the end did no great good to the cause. Now this is the kind of guilt that would have made the last book sing. From a friend who's helped you do your job once or twice. And one who now owes you one. As the first officer, it's my duty and in the best interests of the station for me to be aware of Commander Sisko's whereabouts at all times. It's a matter of security. You do understand that? I'm sure Kira and Quark would both take this as an insult. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. I really liked the premise of this book, and it had some nice twists and turns. Overall, though, I wasn't too impressed. I was expecting this book to really delve into the emotional and psychological effects of dealing with epidemics and working in a refugee camp, but I thought it fell and little flat. Julian's reaction at first is understandable, but he then goes on to make some very rash choices without a lot of build up. Then, at the end, those issues are never dealt with, instead using a vis I really liked the premise of this book, and it had some nice twists and turns. Then, at the end, those issues are never dealt with, instead using a vision-like epiphany that he can do the most good by staying on DS9. I thought the dialogue sounded a lot like a soap opera. To be fair, that's not entirely unusual for Star Trek. There was also one scene between Kira and Dax that I really enjoyed reading. As for Cedra If Cedra Cedara wasn't really the Nekor, then how do we explain her ability to know things without being told, or her almost psychic insight into other people's minds, or her ability at the very end to read an ancient Bajoran script she'd never learned? I like that she was smart and resourceful, but this pushed things a bit too far past suspension of disbelief. Also, I had a problem throughout the book with how characters kept referencing "the Nekor" as if she was a thing, instead of a person, and a young child at that. It was a bit dehumanizing. This book was interesting and did a good job of dropping hints along the way. However, I think the characters all felt a little "off," and that made it hard for me to really get into the story. Characters' motivations either didn't really make sense, or they jumped to conclusions that weren't obvious based on what information they had. Dec 11, Ibis3 rated it it was ok Recommends it for: Fans of Bajoran religious nuttery. Shelves: siy15 , free , spec-fic , twentieth-century , alien-planet , space-station , This one wasn't so badly written as some I've encountered, but the premise was extremely dull. I really have no patience for the whole mystical Bajoran monk thing. So at about pages in I decided just to skim the rest. It got a little more interesting but a lot more silly. Bashir moping around on arrival, then going off on his own to avoid orders that he doesn't even know for sure are coming after a I'm not the biggest fan of DS9, but hey, a ST novel is a ST novel. Bashir moping around on arrival, then going off on his own to avoid orders that he doesn't even know for sure are coming after all, Sisko did send him to the planet in the first place; he'd trust his judgement to know when the job is done , and then falling in love with the first girl he meets? Yeah, okaaaay. I knew fairly early that the Cedra kid was the Nekor and a girl, but what was with the psychotic personality changes? One moment speaking like a fortune cookie, the next biting people? Jul 13, Dianah rated it liked it Shelves: books , star-trek. Oh how I really wanted to like this book! The story sounds like it will be a Bashir fest. There's a strange fever is sweeping through the Bajoran refugee camps. Unfortunately, at times the book makes it sound like Bashir couldn't diagnose a cold without Dax's help and long sections of the book deal with a Bajoran prophecy, a down on his luck Ferengi, and O'Brien's dislike for Cardassian technology. Speaking of which, the runabouts are Federation ships, not Cardassians causing a very faul Oh how I really wanted to like this book! Speaking of which, the runabouts are Federation ships, not Cardassians causing a very faulty plot device. If the book would have stuck with the idea of Bashir practicing real frontier medicine and fighting his own romanticized ideals this could have been a really good book. Dec 26, jacky rated it it was ok Shelves: abandoned , adult-fiction. I got this out of the Reading library as a teenager because I had a small crush on the guy who played Bashir and he is on the cover of this book. I tried to read it, but several things were working against me. Second, I am not a big Sci Fi reader. Lastly, in this book Bashir's character wasn't the primary focus, if I remember correctly. A decent story about refugee camps, politics, and prophecy. Just one major problem that stopped this being 4 stars: the runabouts are not Cardassian made. It sounds a small niggle but its not because a lot of the plot depends on the ineffeciency of the runabouts, and in the series they are very efficient. Aug 13, Denise rated it liked it Shelves: read Finally a DS9 novel that doesn't involve Odo tracking a murderer on the station. While the whole Bajoran mysticism thing has never been one of my favourite aspects of the series, this was still an enjoyable story. Jul 30, Benjamin Plume rated it liked it Shelves: sci-fi , star-trek. How many prophesied children can the Bajorans possibly have? Apparently, a lot. This was a fun read, but the strength was in the cast of characters rather than the plotting. I suppose, though, that that is better than the other way around. Aug 12, Craig rated it liked it. This was okay for a Star Trek book. Jillian's character felt a little strange to me the way he was written, but over all it wasn't bad. The story was interesting. Trying to find a child that would become a great healer for Bajor. Bashir and Dax are too if my favorite characters too! Apr 24, Craig rated it it was ok Shelves: sci-fi , star-trek. More like Star Trek: Problem Child. It all tied together in the end but felt very disconnected throughout. Oct 19, Esa Ruoho rated it liked it. Star Trek by the numbers. You read this, if you like Star Trek DS9. DS9 Dr Bashir on Bajor with refugees and mystics. Sep 24, Jeff Green added it. It was a descent read, but didn't have enough Garak or Farangi characters moments. Jun 13, rivka rated it liked it. Probable re-read. Sep 05, sunnygecko rated it it was ok. Not great. Not terrible. The writing isn't bad and the plot is reasonable though incredibly slow, especially the first half. Nov 12, Jordan Maywood rated it it was ok. Thanks All! Jul 04, Emilyf11 rated it liked it Shelves: star-trek. A good book for dr bashir fans. An interesting read of ds9 before the dominion war. Aug 01, Jesse Lehrer rated it it was ok. Wanted to give this book a His character would be good The book has a solid plot, it's great to see the realities of the worst off Bajorans, it's always cool seeing the real world Bajoran mysticism in action, and seeing Bashir actually do his job in the face of real challenge is always nice.

In , to commemorate the album's 40th anniversary, War Child: The 40th Anniversary Theatre Edition was released; a three-disc, limited edition package, remixed by Steven Wilson containing unreleased tracks, a promo video of "The Third Hoorah", orchestral pieces that were originally written for the film project, a script synopsis and track-by-track annotations by Ian Anderson. The Rolling Stone review of the album is very harsh, as was the Rolling Stone review of A Passion Play : "Each handcrafted track comes chock-full of schmaltz, strings, tootie-fruitti sound effects and toots to boot, not to mention Anderson's warbling lyricism. The AllMusic review, by Bruce Eder, recognizes the quality of the album and the musicians, but stated that: "[ War Child ] never made the impression of its predecessors, however, as it was a return to standard-length songs following two epic-length pieces. It was inevitable that the material would lack power, if only because the opportunity for development that gave Thick as a Brick and A Passion Play some of their power.

Title: Warchild - Die Vermissten Senada, a young mother whose only daughter Aida was removed from Bosnia- Herzegovina during the worst years of the war and presumably adopted into a Western European family. Searching for her after the war, Senada enters illegally into Germany, where she discovers through a social worker the harsh truth of postwar adoption: Aida is alive and well and living happily with a German family. Dark secrets emerge, leaving no one unscathed. Written by AnonymousB. Warchild is an extraordinary piece showing the two colliding worlds of people from post-war Bosnia and a Western Europe state Germany as an example. The opening scene with a shot covering the former Olympic Stadium of Sarajevo with its graveyards nowadays sets the right tone from the start. The movie is about the desperate search of a mother for her child. Luckily the child does not play a major role in the film. This is allows to focus on the mother who is personated by Labina Mitevska. Her performance is great and persuading, you believe her kismet through the whole film. Looking for something to watch?

Cedra then drops from the rafters and tells Kira that Dejana was taken. Cedra then runs through the camp with Kira in tow until they reach a small lean-to hut. Cedra tells Kira that he saw Remis Jobar kidnapped Dejana and Kahrimanis, and then followed them to the hut. Kira decides to try to talk Jobar into letting the hostages go. Jobar tells Kira that he is going to use Dejana to get his land back. He is very angry with the government for forgetting about the people in the camps. As Jobar moves out of the hut, a phaser beam, from the direction where Kira left Cedra, strikes him. A Bajoran man named Kejan Ulli steps into sight and presents himself as a representative of the Dessin-ka. Cedra then runs into the hut to untie Dejana and Kahrimanis, and emerges with his sister riding on his back. Kahrimanis then attends to the stunned Jobar. Kira does not trust Kejan so she calls Munson and has herself, Cedra, and Dejana beamed aboard the runabout. Back aboard DS9, Sisko briefs the senior officers about the situation with the Nekor. Sisko puts Odo in charge of Dejana's safety. Bashir still has not been located so Sisko tells O'Brien to give the station's malfunctioning sensors top priority. Sisko decides to let Cedra stay in his quarters, but for the moment Dejana will stay in the infirmary. Nog apologizes and Cedra tells him to buy some food for them. Soon, the three are having a stolen picnic in a holosuite , where Cedra learns about holotechnology. The three decide to have some fun by reprogramming the holographic systems throughout the station. Shortly after, they are questioned by Odo, but Odo agrees to let them go if Cedra helps O'Brien repair the altered holograms. Later, Jake arrives at his quarters to find Cedra lying in bed. Jake gives Cedra some pajamas and tells him to change, but Cedra decides he is no longer tired and wants to eat. After curing another camp of the fever, Dr. Bashir stops riding and sets up camp. He is awoken by a Bajoran man, Borilak Selinn , who was searching for the healer. Borilak then leads Bashir to a cave. Ulli becomes upset upon finding out Dejana is in the infirmary. After speaking with Dejana, Ulli tells Sisko that Dejana must be brought to the Temple on the eve of Nis Thamar in four days, despite Berajin being about a week away. Meanwhile, Nog tells Quark that he has found out why Dejana is so important. In Ops, the crew are trying to scan for Dejana, but have no success. Kejan Ulli enters Ops and questions Sisko about how this could happen. Sisko tells him that Ensign Tolland , the one guarding Dejana, was attacked from behind. Later, Odo questions Quark about the kidnapping, but gets no useful information. While Kira is eating, Vedek Torin approaches her and gives her flimsy that he found in the temple. It is an invitation to place a bid on the girl. When she reports to Sisko, he tells her that a dozen other Bajoran political and religious groups have been approached in the same way. Sisko and Kira then go to question Garak , who actually received a similar note, but it is addressed to Commander Sisko as a representative of the Federation. Odo then decides to examine Quark's handcomps to see if they printed the notes. Quark informs him that the notes were printed with a handcomp so old and cheap that no self-respecting Ferengi would use them. Vung denies having anything to do with kidnapping. However, when Cedra arrives, he grabs Vung and pulls his face close. Cedra then releases Vung and tells the others to follow. Cedra leads them to an unused runabout repair station. In the corner he finds Dejana, who was rendered invisible by a personal cloaking device , which later self destructs. Cedra says he found her by her scent. Later, in the station's temple, Kejan Ulli becomes aggravated with Sisko for not allowing him to see Dejana. Vedek Torin promises him that no other Bajoran sect will be allowed to see the girl. Ulli reluctantly agrees. Later, a distraught Cedra approaches Sisko and tells him that Dejana is dying. Bashir is taking care of fever patients, particularly Belem whose body resists the cure , in the caves. Meanwhile, aboard DS9, Dejana is becoming worse. It seems her cold was actually the first stage of a disease that Dax has no cure for. Back on Bajor, Bashir and Jalika collect herbs to use in conjunction with Bashir's technology to treat Belem. Bashir and Jalika then reveal their feelings for each other. This means that the runabout can lock onto Bashirs life-sign, but when the transporter is initiated, the signal slips. So if Bashir were to move at the time of the transport, he either wouldn't be transported, or only part of him would be. By the time it will take to correct the problem, Dejana will be dead. Cedra then tells everybody not to worry because Bashir is coming back. Back in the caves, Belem takes his last breath and dies. Jalika leads Bashir to a natural balcony overlooking a large cavern. From the balcony, Borilak Selinn begins to tell the gathering crowd of how Bashir saved their lives. Meanwhile, Odo, Kira, and Cedra are making their way to the caves. At a clearing, Odo applies makeup to Cedra to make him look like a fever victim. The plan is to have Cedra enter the caves and be taken to Dr. There he will place a combadge on Bashir and both will be beamed away. Back in the cave, Selinn's speech has changed directions, he now accuses Bashir of murdering Belem. The crowd seems to be persuaded by Selinn's accusations. Jalika then defends Bashir, but is interrupted when a man carrying a sick child comes into the cavern. Selinn tells the man to bring the child to the balcony so that Jalika can care for him. Jalika then uses Selinn's own argument against him saying that he obviously trusts Bashir's inoculation to protect her from the fever. Bashir approaches the child, but the child moves his arm and reveals himself to be Cedra. Cedra then slaps the combadge onto Bashir and both are beamed away. Sisko congratulates Cedra on his plan working perfectly. They speak to each other about Dejana and Bashir. Later, Cedra visits Bashir and tells him he needs to face his ghosts. Cedra then grabs Bashir, causing him to have a vision in which he must let Jalika die in order to save the children. Bashir later wakes up and goes back to work. Later, Dax comes to the infirmary where Bashir shows her the organism that is causing Dejana's sickness and that killed Belem. Bashir says he intends to stay aboard the station. He then tells Dax to have Major Kira go to Bajor and collect samples from the people who recovered on their own, so that they can produce an antibody. Later, Kira takes Cedra to the station's temple, so that he can calm down. There he speaks to an old monk. The monk's words cause Cedra to become upset, and Cedra tells the monk that he hates him and leaves the temple. While the crew is waiting for Bashir's cure to work on Dejana, Kejan Ulli comes to the infirmary. There, he reveals to the crew that he is a member of a group known as The Circle. Cedra tells everyone that he is actually the Nekor , even though the prophecy says the Nekor must be a girl. Cedra jumps on a biobed and tells Bashir to take the readings. Bashir then informs the others that Cedra is actually a girl. Dejana then reveals Cedra's real name to be Cedara. At the Temple on Bajor, Cedara is presented to the various religious and political groups as the Nekor. When the Dessin-ka group approaches her, she whispers something to the leader that causes him to drop to his knees. She then tells him not to worship her and he agrees. Later, she speaks to Commander Sisko, and it is discovered that Cedara secured the Dessin-ka's loyalty to the provisional government. Bashir approaches and tells them some good news: the disease will not spread to non-Bajorans. Cedara then tells the others of her choice to become a healer. Bashir and Vedek Torin discuss Cedara's future while walking the grounds of the Temple. Torin brings Cedara out and shows her the Kai's prophecy. It is revealed that the gold border traceries on the scroll are actually words hidden in plain sight. https://files8.webydo.com/9587864/UploadedFiles/91DDA36A-9AC5-EF01-385A-06F8BEE244A9.pdf https://static.s123-cdn-static.com/uploads/4645199/normal_601f875f8026c.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9586248/UploadedFiles/028999D3-B0CD-B1A5-B2CA-A2B0A37DEA92.pdf https://static.s123-cdn-static.com/uploads/4643738/normal_60200fc7621e8.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9586433/UploadedFiles/2720CAF5-771F-1F74-D282-4EB3B846A290.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9585919/UploadedFiles/85D80D25-B96F-2EAF-9537-C4C98260CEE2.pdf https://files8.webydo.com/9592855/UploadedFiles/8005CD00-F5A6-11F0-E128-3B0A9D3226F0.pdf https://uploads.strikinglycdn.com/files/e62a802c-d939-4206-b159-1c971f16dfa5/praxis-der-anasthesiologie-konkret-kompakt- leitlinienorientiert-674.pdf
