At general level we can observe a weak social virtual responsibility among young people. Behind an avatar, they feel free to experiment, without any awareness of the real life impact. The general need of socialization of the young people, in the context of modern technology and social networks development, facilitated also the development of the virtual threats, at social, personal and professional level. Thus, in the last years, the number of cyber bulling cases increased dramatically, especially those cases where the young people were the victims. safelink 4 Activities and methodology y During the youth exchange, the young participant will get involved in activities special designed to contribute to their self development, most of them based on non formal education methods with a big impact on their intercultural learning process and many other active and creative methods, games or exercises meant to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and the exchange between participants. 5 08:30 - 09:30 Breakfast 17:00 - 17:30 Coffee break 10:00 - 11:30 1st working session 17:30 - 19:00 4th working session timetable / 11:30 - 12:00 Coffee break 19:00 - 19:30 Reflection groups 12:00 - 13:30 2nd working session 19:30 - 20:30 Dinner 13:30 - 15:30 Lunch break 21:00 - 22:00 Evening activities working session 15:30 - 17:00 3rd session Arriving day (10/11/2019): We will start after dinner with [GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER GAMES] and continue with an [welcome party] Day 1 (11/11/2019): AM: [Project’s presentation, Get to know each other games] [Teambuilding games] PM: [Expectations, Contributions, Fears.

  • Presencing the Slovenian-Hungarian Border in Goričko and the Rába Valley
    Acta Ethnographica Hungarica 65(2), 355–378 (2020) DOI: 10.1556/022.2020.00015 “Eyes Have No Border”. Presencing the Slovenian-Hungarian Border in Goričko and the Rába Valley Received: April 16, 2020 • Accepted: June 23, 2020 Ingrid Slavec Gradišnik – Katalin Munda Hirnök ZRC SAZU Institute of Slovenian Ethnology, Ljubljana – Institute for Ethnic Studies, Ljubljana Abstract: The article draws on the written and oral memories of people living along the border between Slovenia (Goričko in Prekmurje) and Hungary (the Rába Valley). They are presented as comments on a century-long process of political changes in this borderland and demonstrate a plethora of ways in which border shifts intrude on people’s everyday lives. People’s concern with the border is reflected in the fact that it is a topic that emerges in any conversation with individuals living next to it, whether in the context of work, family, daily errands or stories of the past and present. In this article, informed by two concepts–border and memory– we present memories and perceptions of the border as they are expressed in casual comments or observations and semi-structured conversations with interviewees in the field. Life in borderlands is always localized, and there are visible divergences in the experience of the border on the Slovenian and Hungarian side. In Prekmurje, historical events along the border, especially the post-Trianon one, and the memory of these events are perpetuated through anniversaries of the annexation of Prekmurje to the Kingdom of SCS, whereas in the Rába Valley, memories especially relate to the Iron Curtain period.

  • Legal Rules Applicable to the Equitable Maritime Boundaries Delimitation in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea: an Egyptian Perspective
    Legal Rules Applicable to the Equitable Maritime Boundaries Delimitation in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea: An Egyptian Perspective Ibrahim Ahmed EL Diwany United Nations – The Nippon Foundation of Japan Fellowship Programme 2018 Disclaimer The views expressed herein are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the United Nations, The Nippon Foundation of Japan, The Government of the Arab Republic of Egypt or Utrecht University. Abstract The Eastern Mediterranean Sea Basin is a semi-enclosed Sea bordered by ten States. The growing economic interests in the basin natural resources have motivated the basin States to claim jurisdiction over its exclusive economic zones and continental shelves. The absence of defined maritime boundaries, in this confined basin with numerous islands, have generated contesting claims between basin States on the overlapping undelimited maritime areas. The majority of maritime boundaries in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea are not delimited yet. Only four maritime boundaries, out of seventeen potential boundaries, were delimited by agreements. The delimitation of maritime boundaries in the basin is vital. It establishes legal certainty to maritime boundaries that enables basin States to exercise safely their sovereignty rights for exploring and exploiting their natural resources in their maritime areas. The research paper aims to identify the legal rules and principles governing maritime boundaries delimitation in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea Basin and its application on the delimitation of Egypt’s maritime boundaries with opposite and adjacent States. It explores in the first part the “equidistance/special circumstances” rule applicable for the delimitation of the territorial sea, the “agreement/equitable result” rule applicable for the delimitation of the extended maritime zones and the “equidistance/relevant circumstances” rule considered in recent jurisprudence.

    The greater strategic and economic significance that the eastern Mediterranean has gained is not linked to the discovery of vast natural gas reserves in its developing countries, nor to its proximity to resource-poor European countries, it is rather correlated with the fact that its countries whose borders were drawn in the aftermath of World War I continue to bear the brunt of border conflicts, pursue of primacy and influence peddling Development of the Middle East Gas: Opportunities & Challenges By Brigadier General Khaled Hamadeh Director of the Regional Forum for Consultancy and Studies Table of Contents 1.

  • Maritime Boundaries Delimitation, Management and Dispute Resolution
    MARITIME BOUNDARIES DELIMITATION, MANAGEMENT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION DELIMITATION OF THE MOZAMBIQUE MARITIME BOUNDARIES WITH NEIGHBOURING STATES (INCLUDING THE EXTENDED CONTINENTAL SHELF) AND THE MANAGEMENT OF OCEAN ISSUES ELÍSIO BENEDITO JAMINE The United Nations and Nippon Fellowship Programme 2006-2007 Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea Office of Legal Affairs United Nations, NY, USA ABSTRACT The Law of the Sea Convention (LOSC) establishes the jurisdictional regimes under which a coastal State can claim, manage, and utilize its ocean resources. With an increasing recognition of the need to administer competing resource use interests in the ocean and seabed, and the requirement to ensure sustainable exploitation of these resources, Mozambique has an ambitious program for the establishment of its maritime boundaries, including the outer limits of its extended Continental Shelf (CS). Mozambique faces the problem of lack of delimitation and negotiation of the maritime boundaries, connected to the lack of a comprehensive framework for management of maritime issues, lack of appropriate technology to quantify, qualify, and exploit the resources that lie in the sea, and lack of means by which to exercise and guarantee its sovereign rights. These problems obstruct the Mozambican State, as a sovereign subject of international law of the sea (LOS), from being able to take independent initiatives in pursuit of her internal and external policy objectives. The lack of delimitation of the maritime boundaries appears as a constraint for the State. Mozambique is not in a position to exercising all her rights and duties in accordance with LOSC with respect to jurisdiction and the exercise of sovereignty in these spaces.

  • How Do Urban Forms Enable Political Projects? the Affordance of Nationalism And
    1 Nathan Gene Charlton How do urban forms enable political projects? The affordance of nationalism and nationhood during the modernisation of European cities. The London School of Economics and Political Science A thesis submitted to the European Institute of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, May 2018 2 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 74,419 words. 3 Abstract How do ideologies and cities shape each other? This work offers a theoretical strategy for explaining how urban forms and political projects have afforded each other's development historically, while avoiding a deterministic account of how political aims are realised in particular urban forms. To do this it focuses on the emergence of nationalism in the context of the modernisation of European cities in the nineteenth century and early twentieth century. As background, the development of the concept of citizenship in the context of the medieval city is explored and an understanding of the exceptional political space of the city in political philosophy is outlined.
