    CASE STUDY The Impact of Rock Climbing on Kalymnos THE IMPACT OF ROCK CLIMBING ON KALYMNOS February 2020 1 THE CLIMBING INITIATIVE ABOUT THE CLIMBING INITIATIVE The Climbing Initiative is a Colorado-based nonprofit supporting climbing communities worldwide. Through research, community engagement, and partnerships, we bring together organizations invested in the future of climbing and develop best practices for supporting the growth of climbing in emerging contexts. We believe rock climbing can empower individuals, create new sources of livelihood, and foster the development of a more sustainable and equitable world. climbinginitiative.org Cover photo by Nikolaos Smalios Design by Mario Minchevski behance.net/mDesign Photographers Veronica Baker and Nikolaos Smalios Copyright © 2020 The Climbing2 Initiative.

Climbing has injected new life into the island’s economy and mitigated the effects of the Greek economic crisis. A significant social shift is occurring as locals embrace climbing tourism, though there is still not a great degree of integration between climbers and locals. While climbers have relatively low environmental impact, environmental practices throughout Kalymnos need to be improved to preserve the island.

  • Picturing Charmian Clift and George Johnston's Hydra Expatriation
    Australians in Aspic: Picturing Charmian Clift and George Johnston’s Hydra Expatriation TANYA DALZIELL University of Western Australia PAUL GENONI Curtin University When George Johnston was speaking to Stuart Sayers, the literary editor of The Age newspaper, on the eve of the release of Clean Straw for Nothing (1969), he was keen to highlight the novel’s specific representation of expatriation. Johnston stressed that his was not ‘that banal expatriation which Barry Humphries pictures in the Aussies of Kangaroo Valley in London’s Earl’s [sic] Court.’ Instead, his novel depicts nothing less than an existential expatriation, ‘a highly subtle and complex dissolution of the human soul,’ whose reach and implication was global. ‘Expatriation is a world problem,’ Johnston is reported to have said, ‘Europe, for example, is infested with hundreds of thousands of self-imposed exiles wandering around looking for different things in different ways.’ If expatriation is a ‘problem,’ if Europe is ‘infested’ with aimless wanderers, then it also implicitly upholds Johnston’s decision to repatriate from the Greek island of Hydra and to write ‘of the thing I know most about: that is, being an Australian.’ Clean Straw for Nothing has since assumed a place as a classic account of the Australian experience of literary expatriation, recounting as it does the relationship between David Meredith and Cressida Morley, the alter-egos of Johnston and his wife Charmian Clift, and fictionalising their movement over nearly two decades from Sydney, to London, to the Aegean island of Hydra, and back to Sydney. Theories of literary expatriation have evolved in the years since Clean Straw for Nothing was published, as Australian literature has been increasingly seen to function within the context of increasingly globalised spheres of production and consumption (Dixon).

    City of Tarpon Springs, Florida IRENE S. JACOBS, CMC City Clerk & Collector K. MICHELE MANOUSOS, CMC Deputy City Clerk & Collector DATE: MARCH 4, 2021 TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS FROM: IRENE S. JACOBS, CMC, CITY CLERK & COLLECTOR THOMAS J. TRASK, CITY ATTORNEY SUBJECT: MARCH 4, 2021 On July 14, 2020, the Board after recommendation of the Sister Cities Committee, adopted three additional sister cities (Ilida, Chania, and Hydra). These were in addition to our existing sister cities which are: Kalymnos, Halki, Symi and Larnica. During this time, it was discovered that the City nor the Sister Cities Committee had no formal procedures for selection of Sister Cities, or protocol for official visits. As a result of Board discussion and concerns raised, the City Attorney and myself were asked to compile program procedures, and research other surrounding municipalities on their Sister Cities program. Before you is a draft of program procedures that we have complied. This draft were presented to the Sister Cities on September 28th and they were in favor of these program procedures. Included topics in this draft include Sister City history, mission and goals (taken from the Sister Cities bylaws); initiation, acceptance, and formalization selection process; budget; visit and gift exchange protocol; and a listing of participating community partners. 1 Tarpon Springs Sister Cities Program Procedures 1 MARCH 4, 2021 Sister Cities Definition (Sister Cities International Website): A Sister City relationship is a broad-based, long-term partnership between two communities in two countries. Sister City relationships provide mutual benefits to communities far beyond traditional exchanges.

Fisheries in the Dodecanese Islands Executive Summary Given the remote nature of the Dodecanese islands and the seasonal nature of the region’s tourism, fishing still has a certain role to play in overall economic activity. Even so, it contributes scarcely more than 1% to the economy. During the tourist season, fishing and tourism complement each other.
