Through a combination of research and strategic outreach, the Center actively engages policymakers and the public to influence the policies of the United States, other rich countries, and such institutions as the World Bank, the IMF, and the World Trade Organization, to improve the economic and social development prospects in poor countries. The Center’s Board of Directors bears overall responsibility for the Center and includes distinguished leaders of nongovernmental organizations, former officials, busi- ness executives and some of the world’s leading scholars of development. The Center re- ceives advice on its research and policy programs from the Board and from an Advisory Committee that comprises respected development specialists and advocates. The Center’s president works with the Board, the Advisory Committee, and the Cen- ter’s senior staff in setting the research and program priorities, and approves all formal pub- lications. The Center is supported by an initial significant financial contribution from- Ed ward W. Scott Jr. and by funding from philanthropic foundations and other organizations. Board of Directors Edward W.

The problem of children, especially girls, failing to attend school, is a classic one. No one disagrees that girls ought to go to school—for their own sake and because educating girls ensures a better future for their children and their societies. Many donors express a willingness to finance increased access to better schooling, especially for girls. There is universal support for the Mil- lennium Development Goal of universal primary education by 2015. And in fact, progress in expanding education in developing countries has been impressive in the last two de- cades and girls have benefited as enrollment rates, especially in primary schooling, have increased dramatically. But the limits of standard approaches to achieving near-universal education (building more schools, training more teachers, providing essential learning materials) are evident. More than 75 million children are not enrolled in school or are not attending school regularly; many who at- tend learn little and fail to complete primary school. One worrying example of that reality: in some countries primary school enrollment among girls who are members of exclud- ed groups—social minorities—is below 50 percent. One year ago we published a book by Maureen Lewis (a then senior fellow at the Center) and Marlaine Lockheed, ix x Preface Inexcusable Absence: Why 60 Million Girls Still Aren’t In School

  • CYBERBULLYING Bullying Is Aggressive Behavior That Is Intentional and Involves an Imbalance of Power Or Strength
    From the Stop Bullying Now Website http://www.stopbullyingnow.hrsa.gov/adults/cyber-bullying.aspx CYBERBULLYING Bullying is aggressive behavior that is intentional and involves an imbalance of power or strength. Usually, it is repeated over time. Traditionally, bullying has involved actions such as: hitting or punching (physical bullying), teasing or name-calling (verbal bullying), or intimidation through gestures or social exclusion. In recent years, technology has given children and youth a new means of bullying each other. Cyberbullying, which is sometimes referred to as online social cruelty or electronic bullying, has been defined as "an aggressive, intentional act carried out by a group or individual, using electronic forms of contact, repeatedly and over time against a victim who cannot easily defend him or herself" (Smith et al., 2008, p. 376). Cyberbullying can involve: • Sending mean, vulgar, or threatening messages or images • Posting sensitive, private information and/or lies about another person • Pretending to be someone else in order to make that person look bad • Intentionally excluding someone from an online group (Willard, 2005) Children and youth can cyberbully each other through: • Emails • Instant messaging • Text or digital imaging messages sent on cell phones • Social networking sites • Web pages • Blogs • Chat rooms or discussion groups • Other cyber technologies Bullying via instant messaging appears to be particularly prevalent (Dehue et al., 2008; Kowalski et al., 2008). How Common Is Cyberbullying? Research studies have produced different answers to this question. Rates of cyberbullying vary depending on the definition of cyberbullying that is used, the ages and characteristics of children surveyed, and the time frame involved (Kowalski & Limber, under review).

  • ''Proper Education''
    33 ADVENTIST PERSPECTIVES, Spring, 1989, Vol. II I, No. 1 ''Proper Education'' by G. H. Akers Dr. George H. Akers, currently "Mr. Education" for the Seventh-day Adventist world church, absorbed the educational wisdom of a one-room church school, an academy in the sweeping Shenandoah Valley, and Washington Missionary College (CUC). Teaching, cleaning, and administering education at various levels have been his life for more than forty years of serv­ ice to his church and his God. His doctorate in higher education and historical/philosophical foundations was earned at USCLA. Some sixteen years at Andrews University climaxed with his appointment to the first deanship of the School of Education.

  • How Does Individualism-Collectivism Relate to Bullying Victimisation?
    International Journal of Bullying Prevention https://doi.org/10.1007/s42380-018-0005-y ORIGINAL ARTICLE How Does Individualism-Collectivism Relate to Bullying Victimisation? Peter K. Smith 1 & Susanne Robinson1 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Large-scale surveys have pointed to considerable country variations in the prevalence and nature of bullying victimisation. In seeking to explain these, one possible explanatory factor has been the cultural values of a country, such as expounded by (Hofstede 1980; Hofstede et al. 2010). Of his six dimensions of cultural values, the most investigated in relation to aggression and bullying has been that of individualism-collectivism (IDV). The theoretical background and several empirical studies have suggested more aggression in individualist societies, but the evidence has been mixed and often based on small samples. Here, we investigate how the prevalence of victimisation in different countries relates to IDV. We also examine predictions about the proportion of bullying which is relational and the ratio of bullies to victims. We primarily used the Health Behaviour in School- aged Children surveys, available at 3 age groups and over six time points. We also use data from 4 other surveys where appropriate. The overall findings are for less victimisation in individualist societies, but only in more recent years; some support for a greater proportion of relational victimisation in individualist societies and a higher ratio of bullies to victims in collectivist societies. The findings are discussed in relation to other factors, and a hypothesis is advanced that regulatory frameworks and resources have reduced victimisation primarily in more individualist societies in the last two decades.

En un ambiente mayoritariamente partidario de la ideología de los cristianos viejos y su propósito de excluir a los conversos de los honores sociales, tímidamente tanto Felipe II, en sus últimos años de vida, como Felipe III, la Inquisición y en concreto inquisidores generales como Quiroga, Niño de Guevara y Rojas, o bien sobresalientes religiosos como Rivadeneira, de las Casas y Montemayor, van a dar su apoyo en unos casos y a revisar en otros la conducta con la que se asocia al converso. Los últimos harán hincapié en su condi- ción de cristianos auténticos y las ventajas que reportaban sus conocimientos y formación para la sociedad y sus instituciones. PALABRAS CLAVE: Estatutos de limpieza de sangre; exclusión social; intolerancia; cris- tianos viejos; conversos; identidad socio-religiosa. * Este trabajo forma parte del proyecto de investigación 15300/PHCS/10 Nobilitas.

  • Soundtrack of the Townships: Gqom | Norient.Com 27 Sep 2021 03:45:07
    Soundtrack of the Townships: Gqom | norient.com 27 Sep 2021 03:45:07 Soundtrack of the Townships: Gqom by Philipp Weichenrieder Some call it a hybrid of breakbeat and house, some call it «apocalyptic riot music». But for the producers from the townships of Durban, South Africa, Gqom is more than a clubmusic style. It feels like being dragged into a black hole. A single low-pitched string sound is steadily, ominously and threatening hovering in the background. It is creating an eerie atmosphere, a thick and somewhat physical perceptible veil that is set swinging by stumbling kick drums and develops a strangely light and floating movement which at the same time is raw and fiercely pushing. This contradictory dynamic is characteristic and special about a yet young genre of electronic dance music evolving out of the townships of Durban which is also causing a stir in Europe: Gqom. The Zulu word «Gqom», the combination of g and q articulated with a click made with the tongue (can be heard here), means either «drum», «noise», «bucket» or «music». Sometimes the term is also explained as an onomatopoeic equivalence to the noise of a stone falling on a floor tile. This stands for the raw sound with its repetitive and hypnotizing drum rhythm in its centre. Gqom music is not about feel-good harmonies, it is about trance. Pioneering producers like 21-years-old DJ Lag or 26-years-old Sbucardo also https://norient.com/index.php/stories/soundtrack-of-the-townships-gqom-from-durban Page 1 of 5 Soundtrack of the Townships: Gqom | norient.com 27 Sep 2021 03:45:07 describe Gqom as «3-Step».
