  • The Contribution of Somali Diaspora in Denmark to Peacebuilding in Somalia Through Multi-Track Diplomacy
    Journal of Ethnic and Cultural Studies Copyright 2021 2021, Vol. 8, No. 2, 241-260 ISSN: 2149-1291 http://dx.doi.org/10.29333/ejecs/642 The Contribution of Somali Diaspora in Denmark to Peacebuilding in Somalia through Multi-Track Diplomacy Sylvester Tabe Arrey The University of Buea, Cameroon Francisco Javier Ullán de la Rosa1 University of Alicante, Spain Abstract: The paper assesses the ways the Somali diaspora in Denmark is contributing to peacebuilding in their home country through what is known in peace studies as Multi-Track Diplomacy. It starts by defining the concepts of peacebuilding and Multi-track Diplomacy, showing how the latter works as an instrument for the former. The paper then describes and analyzes how, through a varied array of activities that include all tracks of diplomacy as classified by the Diamond&McDonald model, members of Danish diaspora function as interface agents between their home and host societies helping to build the conditions for a stable peace. The article also analyzes how the diplomacy tracks carried out by the Somali-Danish diaspora, as well as the extent of their reach, are shaped by the particular characteristics of this group vis-à-vis other Somali diasporic communities: namely, its small size and relatively high levels of integration and acculturation into the Danish host society. Keywords: Danish-Somalis, multi-track diplomacy, peacebuilding, Somalia, Somali diaspora. The Concepts of Peacebuilding and Multi-track Diplomacy Introduced for the first time by Galtung (1975), peacebuilding progressively became a mainstream concept in the field of peace studies (Heap, 1983; Young, 1987). The document an Agenda for Peace by UN Secretary-General Boutros-Ghali (Boutros-Ghali, 1992) can be considered its official come-of-age.

  • Practical Tips for Working with Transgender Survivors of Sexual Violence
    Practical Tips: working with trans survivors michael munson Practical Tips for Working With Transgender Survivors of Sexual Violence Who Are Transgender People? Transgender is an umbrella term which encompasses the whole “gender community,” including transsexuals, cross‐dressers, intersexed individuals, androgynes, bigendered persons, genderqueers, SOFFAs (Significant Others, Friends, Family and Allies) and others. Transgender may also refer to people who do not fit neatly into either the “male” or “female” categories, instead crossing or blurring gender lines. The term can also refer to butch lesbians and effeminate gay men. In some communities, “transgender” refers only to cross‐dressers. By definition, transgender individuals piece together a self‐identity that is different from or in opposition to what everyone tells them they are. Although the rise of the Internet and growing public visibility of transgender people and issues are making it easier for individuals to tap into preexisting identity models, the transgender experience is still largely an isolated, individual one. This might be the primary reason why the nomenclature for the trans experience is both unsettled and, among trans people themselves, very hotly contested. There are literally hundreds of words used to describe a trans identity or experience (See last page). Therefore, definitions and examples should be used gingerly and in a way that makes it possible for each trans individual hirself to use the term(s) s/hei considers most reflective of hir self‐conception and experience. Key Concepts Our culture strongly promotes the idea of an immutable gender binary in which people are supposed to fit into only one of just two gender boxes, and stay there from birth to death.

The history of the Viking Congresses goes back to 1946. Since this early beginning, the objective has been to create a common forum for the most current research and theories within Viking-age studies and to enhance communication and collaboration within the field, crossing disciplinary and geographical borders. Thus, it has become a multinational, interdisciplinary meeting for leading scholars of Viking studies in the fields of Archaeology, History, Philology, Place-name studies, Numismatics, Runology and other disciplines, including the natural sciences, relevant to the study of the Viking Age. The 18th Viking Congress opens with a two-day session at the National Museum in Copenhagen and continues, after a cross-country excursion to Roskilde, Trelleborg and Jelling, in the town of Ribe in Jylland. A half-day excursion will take the delegates to Hedeby and the Danevirke. The themes of the 18th Viking Congress are: 1. Catalysts and change in the Viking Age As a historical period, the Viking Age is marked out as a watershed for profound cultural and social changes in northern societies: from the spread of Christianity to urbanisation and political centralisation. Exploring the causes for these changes is a core theme of Viking Studies.

In literature the figure of Woman as Victim has evolved according to shifting fashions and (male) desires until, in contemporary avant-garde writings, themes of sexual violence perform an intrinsic role in sophisticated textual praxis, Woman’s body becoming the playground for male artistic expression and textual experimentation.

Only once did LGBT rights get framed as part of a question: When moderator and CNN reporter Anderson Cooper noted Clinton’s changes in positions, including same-sex marriage, and asked whether she’ll say anything to get elected. “Well, actually, I have been very consistent,” Clinton replied. “Over the HILLARY CLINTON was one of three Democratic presidential hopefuls who cited LGBT rights on Tuesday.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.
