Building Bridges and Promoting People to People Interaction in South Asia
Building Bridges and Promoting People to People Interaction in South Asia EDITORS Nishchal N. Pandey Kumar Shrestha 2012 I Published by Centre for South Asian Studies, Kathmandu www.csas.org.np ©Publisher Year of Publication 2012 ISBN 978-9973-2-5165-6 Printed at Jagadamba Press Hattiban Lalitpur, 5250017-19 Email: [email protected] II PREFACE This publication is an outcome of a regional conference on “Building Bridges and Promoting People to People Interaction in South Asia” jointly organized in Kathmandu by the Centre for South Asian Studies (CSAS), the Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Confl ict (GPPAC) and the Regional Centre for Strategic Studies (RCSS) in October 2011. South Asia is one of the least connected regions. Political and security cruxes have for long impacted on regional cooperation endeavors even as trade, connectivity and travel have become helpless victims in the face of bilateral problems. Despite these hurdles, the civil society of South Asia has continued not only to advocate for peace and amity in the region, but also to recommend measures to strengthen SAARC, taking cue from the success story of ASEAN and the European Union. The South Asian civil society is a robust and enthusiastic group of people from every profession that has time and again demanded that SAARC must become a fl exible alliance that is effective and effi cient. While SAARC is an inter- governmental association, successive Summits have emphasized on the importance of promoting people-to-people contacts at all levels outside the State sector. The community of academics, CSOs, women leaders, NGO representatives and media persons that participated in this roundtable turned out to be an illustrious community with shared values championing peace, freedom and greater economic integration. -

{PDF EPUB} How a Good Person Can Really Win by Pavan Choudary ISBN 13: 9789380710457
Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} How A Good Person Can Really Win by Pavan Choudary ISBN 13: 9789380710457. In the world of power, there are broadly two kinds of people one, the immoral people for whom only the goals matter; two, the good people, for whom the means to reach these goals are as important. This book challenges the belief that a good man hasn't got a chance in the real world. It shows how goodness, when coupled with creativity and wisdom, can turn formidable. With real-life examples, original insights and practical tips this book enables the good man to tackle the immoral men and overcome them. It also propels the immoral man into understanding that riding roughshod over others may take care of the present but has no future. The book is free of any platitudes that don't work and free of any unproven recommendations. It has relevance to all walks of life. This book goes beyond its previous Best Selling edition When you are Sinking become a Submarine. "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. Pavan Choudary is the author of path breaking books like Broom & Groom (co-author Kiran Bedi), A Trilogy of Wisdom, Machiavelli for Moral People and The Rx Factor. Pavan is also the Managing Director of Vygon, a leading French Multinational, hosts the TV program Hum Aise Kyun Hain on Doordarshan, and has written columns for Times of India and Financial Chronicle. Today, Pavan is considered as one of the most original Indian political thinkers and management strategists shaping opinions on practically all aspects of governance, social reform and leadership. -

Medical Technology Association of India (MTaI) represents a wide spectrum of medical device companies in India, having a strong manufacturing, healthcare worker training footprint and stands for greater patient access and quality care. In the pursuit of its mission, MTaI is organizing its Annual MedTech Conference, the MTaI MedTekon 2018: ‘MedTech – Vitalizing Ayushman Bharat’.
