Executive Summary This inventory of sector-based workforce strategies has been developed as part of the regional planning process described in the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) that was implemented July 1, 2015. In addition to promoting regional planning and regional workforce programming, this new legislation calls for an emphasis of engaging businesses in a sector-based approach to identify needs and provide workforce solutions. Further, this inventory of sector-based workforce strategies involves coordination with the REDC (and their priority sectors) as well as with other organizations in the region involved in sector based workforce strategies. The intent of the inventory is to assist the Regional Economic Development Council in addressing the Governor’s priority to “Train the Workforce for Today and Tomorrow” outlined in the 2016 REDC Competition Guidebook. This inventory identifies specific sector-based workforce strategies that the workforce boards participate in along with their local career centers, as well as other relevant initiatives identified by workforce and training related entities in the region. -

America Abroad Media Brings Top Hollywood Writer and Producers to Abu Dhabi Last week America Abroad Media (AAM) helped organize a delegation of leading Hollywood producers and writers who traveled to Abu Dhabi for a groundbreaking series of workshops and events aimed at supporting young creative talent in the UAE and the broader Arab World.

We look forward to forging long term partnerships for Arabic drama and entertainment programming that will reach audiences across the Middle East and far beyond."

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. -

An Economic Development Region Analysis
Labor Force Trends in New York State: An Economic Development Region Analysis Elizabeth Womack Program on Applied Demographics Cornell University November 2017 Program on Applied Demographics Web: http://pad.human.cornell.edu Email: [email protected] I. Executive Summary The objective of this white paper is to expand on the September 2017 “Labor Force Trends in New York State” report authored by the Office of the New York State Comptroller, and to highlight its findings in regards to the 10 Economic Development Regions of New York State. The September report’s key findings are that 1) the labor force for New York State has been decreasing and 2) there has been a surge in participation of older individuals (65+ years and older) in the labor force. This white paper will discuss Finding 1, which is notably prevalent in 5 of the 10 Economic Development Regions. Additionally, this white paper will discuss Finding 2 by exploring changes in population growth and labor force shares of “aged-out”prime working age individuals (65+). Unlike the September 2017 report, this paper has a focus on examining labor force trends by Economic Development Region. This paper is organized in the following manner: First, an overview discussion of the New York labor force by Economic Development Region is entertained for the 2010-2016 timeframe on topics of the labor force population, the unemployment rate, the number of individuals employed, and the labor force participation rate. Following, factors affecting the aforementioned topics are examined more closely, including population growth and migration. The findings of labor force trends that are presented in this white paper, by economic development region, are summarized in Table 1 below. -
Abu Dhabi – the Hollywood of the Middle East

The year 2009 did not exactly start promisingly, already in her New Year’s Address for 2009, the German Chancellor referred to great efforts to be made in the coming year. The economic forecasts are being adjusted downwards on a weekly basis. Although the film industry is still doing well at present; winter time also means time to go to the cinema, after all, and the German Federal Film Fund helps make the film location Germany less susceptible to crisis. But if the augurs prove to be right, and film financing also starts to slow down, what are we to do? Just like in a fairytale, there is light on the horizon amidst the darkness of pessimistic economic interpretations. -

Planning Abu Dhabi: from Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim a Dissertation S
Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City By Alamira Reem Bani Hashim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair Professor Michael Southworth Professor Greig Crysler Summer 2015 © Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Abstract Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair The overarching objective of this research project is to explore and document the urban history of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is organized as a comparative study of urban planning and design processes in Abu Dhabi during three major periods of the city’s development following the discovery of oil: (1) 1960-1966: Sheikh Shakhbut Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule (2) 1966-2004: Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule; and (3) 2004-2013: Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s rule. The intention of this study is to go beyond a typical historical narrative of sleepy village-turned-metropolis, to compare and contrast the different visions of each ruler and his approach to development; to investigate the role and influence of a complex network of actors, including planning institutions, architects, developers, construction companies and various government agencies; to examine the emergence and use of comprehensive development plans and the policies and values underlying them; as well as to understand the decision-making processes and design philosophies informing urban planning, in relation to the political and economic context of each period. -
Twofour54 Media Free Zone
Journal of Legal, Ethical and Regulatory Issues Volume 23, Issue 6, 2020 TWOFOUR54 MEDIA FREE ZONE: PROMOTING MEDIA INDUSTRY IN A CENSORED COUNTRY Khoa Tran, New York University Abu Dhabi Anh Tuyet Nguyen, Nguyen Chi Thanh Gifted High School ABSTRACT According to twofour54's official website, acknowledging the spirit of H.H Sheikh Zayed, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan initiated Abu Dhabi's 2030 Vision with the hope to build a sustainable and diversified economy with a strong recognition of international openness. To achieve this objective, he recognized that media is not only a source of mere entertainment and information; it also plays a vital role in national development and national branding in an international context. Media reflects citizens' collective voice and brings UAE culture and presence to join hands with the modern world's international growth. One of the 2030 sub- visions is to make Abu Dhabi a globally recognized hub for the media industry. However, the United Arab Emirates and Abu Dhabi face a conflict in interest between liberal media promotion and national censorship, which protects the UAE's political-cultural stability. To solve this conflict, the Abu Dhabi authority established twofour54 in Abu Dhabi. This research would use film production as a case study for twofour54 regarding solving the media-censorship conflicts. Keywords: Censorship, Economic Free Zone, Film Production, Islamic, Media, United Arab Emirates. INTRODUCTION The current development of the media industry in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the establishment of the media free zone twofour54 were foreseen by the UAE's national father H.H Sheikh Zayed's vision. -

Therefore, it is substantial to ensure the sustainability of the process as attempts to deal with the dynamics problems of the disaster management. As the process requires interactions among stakeholders in delivering the actions, hence a governance arrangement is substantial in the disaster management. While the governments play role as the main generator of the arrangement, this research reveals that the NGOs (Non- Governmental Organizations) play major part in supporting the disaster management process. Accordingly, this research aims to address whether the NGOs play such roles in dealing with the dynamics situation of the disaster management process. -
