Since conservation is not a media priority topic and MPAs come into news only when an accident happens, the module will help managers to gain knowledge and skills for effectively engaging media on conservation issues. The module will introduce different tools for media relations, explaining their strengths and limitations. It will also discuss how to use these tools during a crisis communication situation. 3 Imprint Training Resource Material: Coastal and Marine Biodiversity and Protected Area Management for MPA Managers Module 1: An Introduction to Coastal and Marine Biodiversity Module 2: Coastal and marine Ecosystem Services and their Value Module 3: From Landscape to seascape Module 4: Assessment and monitoring of coastal and marine biodiversity and relevant issues Module 5: Sustainable Fisheries Management Module 6: Marine and Coastal Protected Areas Module 7: Governance, law and policies for managing coastal and marine ecosystems, biodiversity and protected areas Module 8: Coasts, climate change, natural disasters and coastal livelihoods Module 9: Tools for mainstreaming: impact assessment and spatial planning Module 10: Change Management and connectedness to nature Module 11: Communicating Coastal and Marine Biodiversity Conservation issues Module 12: Effective management Planning of coastal and marine protected areas ISBN 978-81-933282-5-5 December 2016 Published by: Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Wildlife Institute of India (WII) Indira Gandhi National Forest Academy Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH P.O.

Reverse sweeps make me shudder; KP’s attacks (when batting, that is) made me bewail the lack of a basic straight-bat technique and David Warner just makes me think – slogger! And so on. However, Brendon McCullum is another matter entirely. Watching New Zealand lose early wickets in their second Test against Australia and seeing the talented Kane Williamson inching to just three runs in over sixty deliveries was a painful experience until the world turned upside down. Having been beaten comprehensively by his first ball, Brendon McCullum sliced the next ball over the slips for four and then began to construct something of true wonder. With most bowlers going for barely one an over, Mitchell Marsh entered the attack and jaw-droppingly, saw his first over go for twenty one runs.

Moments of great political and cultural transformation can motivate and activate these racial projects, generating racialized representations that attach racial meaning to bodies. Much of the research on Muslim representations in news media centers on this very question: did the attacks of 9/11 usher in a new racial project? Previous studies offer competing hypotheses. Bridging social movement and communication theories with a theory of ethnoracial formation, the author develops an approach for evaluating racial framing processes through a comparison of diagnostic, prognostic, and motivational frames. The author applies this approach using computational text analysis techniques to examine latent shifts in the racial framing of Muslims in the New York Times in the decade before and after 9/11. The author finds evidence of increasingly racialized, but more complex, representations of Muslims in the decade after 9/11 in which diagnostic frames evolve from locating social problems in states and institutions to locating social problems in Muslim bodies. Prognostic frames shift from institutional reforms to those targeting group pathology.
