The aw ys journalists engage with these platforms are: challenging notions of objectivity through the convergence of personal and professional lives; propelling the mainstreaming of 'open journalism' models, which promote collaborative research and reportage; and even upending established verification processes. So, what are the implications for investigative journalism? What are the potential benefits of s' ocial journalism' for research, investigation and verification? How can journalists and news publishers most effectively deploy social media platforms in pursuit of investigative stories? And what are the pitfalls of this brave new world? This chapter will seek to answer these questions and work towards developing a best-practice approach to social journalism principles in the context of investigative reporting, with an emphasis on the role and impact of Twitter as the tool of choice for most journalists.

On behalf of the U .S . National Institutes of Health-sponsored Centers for AIDS Research, and Makerere University’s Infectious Diseases Institute, welcome to Kampala! It is our pleasure and honor to have you join us for the 2011 Sub-Saharan Africa CFAR Conference as we gather to feature some of the important research being conducted by African investigators collaborating with the 21 Centers for AIDS Research (CFARs) . Our Conference Steering Committee is planning an exciting program focusing on three priority themes: u Integrating Treatment and Prevention in HIV Care u HIV Comorbidities u HIV and Women Through a combination of plenary and poster presentations, panel discussions, and networking sessions, this meeting will present a unique opportunity for both scientific and information exchange . A special effort will be made to provide a platform for sharing information on existing scientific resources and infrastructure at leading African institutions that support AIDS research and training – a critical prerequisite for the exchange of scientific resources, capacity building, and the fostering of new collaborations among African institutions . The conference has already generated much energy and interest . We envision this momentum leading to the emergence of an African-led network that will build on existing collaborations and begin to explore potential synergies with new partners – including other CFARs, other complementary networks active in Africa, and in particular, South-South partnerships among African institutions – to strengthen the community of science on the continent .

    Decentralisation and Urban Governance in Uganda By Sabiti Makara Supervisor: Prof. Tom Lodge Thesis submitted to the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg For the award of a Ph.D in the Faculty of Humanities 2009 i Declaration I declare that this is my own work which, to the best of my knowledge, has not been submitted to any university for any academic award. ii Dedication This work is dedicated to the memory of my late father, Eliab Makara who taught me that life and work have the same meaning, and to my late grandmother Egransi Baroza, under whose care and guidance I grew to realise my childhood dream. iii Acknowledgement I am indebted to many people for their contribution to this work. I thank my supervisor Professor Tom Lodge, who despite the challenge of transferring from Wits to Limerick University retained and guided me to the end. It is a privilege accorded to very few students and I am lucky to have associated with him in this regard. To the members of my family, especially my wife Beatrice Kabahinda, children: Janet Kukundakwe, Jessica Namara, Joy Asiimwe and Joseph Ruteikara and to my dear mother, Medias, I owe you a pat on the back for all kinds of support to me. It was never a bed of roses, it was a struggle throughout. I am grateful to Makerere University for a grant that enabled me to pursue this degree. Last but not least, I thank my colleagues who contributed in various capacities to the process of writing this work: William Muhumuza, Paul Omach, Andrew Ellias State, R.

    PM - Downer in Indonesia to sign new treaty http://www.abc.net.au/cgi-bin/common/printfriendly.pl?http://www.abc.... ABC Online PM - Downer in Indonesia to sign new treaty [This is the print version of story http://www.abc.net.au/pm/content/2006/s1787583.htm] PM - Monday, 13 November , 2006 18:34:00 Reporter: Mark Colvin MARK COLVIN: The Foreign Affairs Minister Alexander Downer is on the Indonesian island of Lombok today, where he and the Indonesian Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda will sign a new security agreement. We still don't know the detail of what's in it, though in general it's designed to improve border security, intelligence and cooperation on combating terrorism. But lawyers and foreign affairs experts are keenly awaiting the release later tonight of the exact wording of the treaty. Don Rothwell is Professor of International Law at the Australian National University. He says what he'll be looking for first is the treaty's effect on the so-called "Howard Doctrine" of Australia's security role in the region. DON ROTHWELL: The Australian Government has been quite forceful in putting forward a view that it continues to retain the right to use force against terrorists who might be based in neighbouring countries such as those in South East Asia or in the South Pacific. And the Government has been very consistent in pursuing this position, so much so that last year when it became a party to the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation, it expressly reserved its position on that issue in terms of maintaining the right to continue to exercise self-defence.
