  • Pdsa Dickin Medal Dm 69
    MALI DM 69 PDSA DICKIN MEDAL MALI DM 69 “For tireless bravery and devotion to duty during an operation in Afghanistan with the British Military in 2012.” Date of Award: 17 November 2017 MALI’S STORY Eight-year-old Belgian Malinois Mali worked with a British Military unit deployed to Afghanistan in 2012. During his tenure, Mali assisted in a highly sensitive operation to secure an enemy stronghold, situated in a multi-storey building. His role was to detect explosives and insurgents, alerting his colleagues to their presence and giving them vital seconds to prepare to engage the enemy. During the seven-and-a-half-hour mission, an intense firefight took place. Mali was hoisted up the outside of the building several times to provide the assault force with a key foothold. He went above and beyond the call of duty, indicating the presence of insurgents numerous times, as well as moving through direct fire on two separate occasions while searching for explosives. “HER CHEST AND LEGS SUSTAINED SHRAPNEL INJURIES...” The unit sustained casualties during the operation. Mali was also seriously injured by three grenade blasts. The first two explosions caused injuries to his chest, front and rear legs. The final grenade exploded close to his face, knocking out a tooth and damaging his ear. Despite his injuries, Mali continued his duties and pushed forward, remaining close to his handler throughout. Mali went on to make a full recovery. His gallantry and devotion to duty earned him a PDSA Dickin Medal – which uniquely bears a commemorative ‘Centenary bar’ to mark the 100th anniversary of PDSA.

  • Jim Grant Was a Visionary Leader on a Global Scale
    Jim Grant was a visionary leader on a global scale. As Executive Director of UNICEF, the JIM GRANT United Nations Children’s Fund, from 1980 to 1995, he launched a worldwide child survival and development revolution. The practical result was that by 1995, 25 million children were alive who would otherwise have died. Millions more were living with better health and nutrition. JIM GRANT UNICEF visionary The eight pieces in this volume, all by Jim Grant’s close colleagues, celebrate this achievement. But much more, they draw out the lessons of Grant’s vision and leadership – lessons relevant in many other contexts. From messages received on the death of James P. Grant, 28 January, 1995 Peter Adamson “His death is a great loss to each and every needy child in this world.” UNICEF visionary Carol Bellamy South African President Nelson Mandela Kul Gautam “An irretrievable loss to the children of the world.” Chinese Premier Li Peng Richard Jolly Nyi Nyi “We join with people all over the world in mourning the loss of a great man.” US President Jimmy Carter Mary Racelis “Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service to America, to Richard Reid UNICEF, and most of all to the children of the world.” Jolly UNICEF US President Bill Clinton Jon Rohde “Very few men or women ever have the opportunity to do as much good in the world as Jim Grant, and very few have ever grasped that opportunity with such complete and dedicated commitment.” UN Secretary General Dr. Boutros Boutros-Ghali “One of the great Americans of this century.” Foreword New York Times Jimmy Carter $10.00 o12.00 All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to the £7.00 James P.

Christiansson Department of Physical Geography University of Stockholm © 1980. SCOPE/UNEP International Nitrogen Unit, Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences ISBN 91-7190-007-I Original produced by Suridt Offset AB, Stockholm Printed in Sweden by Rekam & Katalogtryck, IJppsala PREFACE The present volume reports on the first regionai meeting arranged by the SCOPE/UNEP international Nitrogen Unit. The volume contains invited key note papers as well as papers contributed by other participants in the workshop. A major part of the meeting was devoted to discussions of present knowledge of nitrogen cycling in three major ecosystem types in West Africa, viz., savannas, forests and agro-ecosystems. The reports from these work group discussions are included together with a report on the final dis- cussion on research priorities and future cooperation. The SCOPE/UNEP Nitrogen Unit asked L.C. Nwoboshi and N.O. Adedipe in Nigeria and P. Berg in Sweden to prepare bibliographies on published articles dealing with ni- trogen cycling in West African ecosystems. These bibliographies have been extended and are included in this volume. The meeting was financially supported by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE) and the Man and the Biosphere programme (MAB) of Unesco.
