Partners in mutual trust ................................................... 84 iii iv Preface From Kochi to Fiji, from Senegal to El Salvador, from Norway to Newfoundland, women of fishing communities play a central role in the fisheries and in maintaining the social fabric of their households and communities. However, they remain largely invisible, and the roles they play, largely undocumented. Official surveys not only often fail to capture the gender diversity of the fishing economy around the world, but they also sometimes systematically introduce biases that underestimate and underplay the role of women in the entire gamut of fisheries-related activities—from net weaving, fishing, processing and marketing of marine products to trading, arranging financial credit and engaging in aquaculture activities. As a result, women’s contributions remain largely unrecognized. Policy interventions directed at supporting women’s roles in the fisheries have consequently been few and far between, contributing to their systematic marginalization within the fisheries. Policymakers have consistently failed to take account of women’s potential roles in environmental and development planning. As the world’s fisheries undergo fundamental changes that spring from overfishing, use of highly efficient technologies, privatization of fisheries resources and poor fisheries management, on the one hand, and the growing thrust towards fish farming, aquaculture and ecolabels, on the other, women in both the North and the South face a battery of similar problems. In the North, the artisanal sector and way of life are in danger, as more and more artisanal fishers are pushed out of the sector by State-sponsored policies to reduce fishing capacity and limit resource exploitation. State policies tend to be geared towards protecting the interests of large industry, often at great cost to the women in the fisheries and their communities. As coastal communities in the North lose traditional access rights to fishery resources, their cultures and future are under threat. In Norway, for instance, the associations of wives of fishermen have demanded that coastal communities be given back their rights to fish freely in coastal waters, and that the State recognize the value of coastal communities and artisanal fisheries. In Southern countries, on the other hand, women fishworkers are struggling to retain their spaces within the fisheries sector, in the face of the larger forces of globalization and liberalization. Even as they demand better access to improved facilities for marketing, transport, storage and processing of fish, they are joining forces with men in the artisanal sector to fight against the proliferation of socially and ecologically destructive v technologies such as trawling. In Senegal, for instance, women have played a prominent role in challenging inequitable fisheries agreements between their country and the European Union, and in securing a better deal for artisanal fishworkers under such agreements. As another dimension, in Peru, a combination of machismo and bureaucracy tends to obscure the role of women in the artisanal fishing sector. Women’s contributions and concerns tend to be neglected because community and household are not part of the official fisheries management paradigm. Typically, fisheries management is a relationship between a government and a rights holder, who, in most cases, is not a community or a household but an individual. Not surprisingly, the fishers targeted by management policies are predominantly men. There is little recognition of the fact that cohesive and strong community institutions, fostered and sustained by women the world over, are the foundations for effective and equitable systems for sustainable management of fisheries resources. Women in fisheries communities are generally not as well organized and have been less effective than men as an outside political force. Where women are organized, they have brought in a perspective that puts improving quality of life and fisheries-based livelihoods as the bottom line. For them, life is the goal, not fishing—they are concerned with sustaining not only the fisheries but also the communities that depend on them. They have brought a community perspective into the fisheries debate. These issues relating to women in fisheries have concerned the International Collective in Support of Fishworkers (ICSF) ever since it was formed as a collective of supporters of the artisanal and small-scale fisheries sector in 1986. A particular emphasis has been given to the gender dimension through the ICSF’s Women in Fisheries programme. All these issues have often been debated in the pages of SAMUDRA Report, the triannual publication of ICSF, through contributions from a range of writers, researchers and activists. Some of those articles are now collected here in this dossier. We hope they will go towards reasserting and valorizing the roles of women in fisheries, helping them occupy the spaces they rightfully deserve. vi Women’s rights and ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ fisheries development Nalini Nayak In the small-scale fisheries sector, it is women who have a predominant role reparations go on all around the globe of the fisherfolk.

Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/ijaah.v8n2p3 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/ijaah.v8n2p3 Indigenising the Interior of Some Selected Hotels in Enugu Metropolis through the Production of Textile, using Igbo Motifs Adaeze Q. Silas-Ufelle1 and Pius A. Ntagu2 Abstract It was observed that interior of hotels in Enugu metropolis are predominantly adorned with foreign fabrics that do not reflect the culture of the host communities. The essence of actualizing and stabilizing the economy, especially the hospitality industry in Enugu metropolis implies employing all workable parameters that can restructure the cultural and economic growth of the people positively. Therefore, there is need to indigenize the interiors of hospitality industry in Enugu using Igbo traditional motifs. Selected hotels were used to mirror this attenuation by employing the Igbo unique traditional symbols and mural designs to acculturate their interior environments. Qualitative research was adopted and snowball sampling was used for the selection of hotels. As a studio area, the work employed the transfer of developed designs on fabrics with the aids of batik, tie-dye and screen printing method of fabric production. The final fabric works were produced to satisfy the various end uses relevant to hotel interiors and to provide materials for documentations as a means of projecting the esteemed culture of Enugu metropolis in particular and Ndigbo in general. The studio experimentation employed mixed media and construction techniques.

  • Textile Printing
    TECHNICAL BULLETIN 6399 Weston Parkway, Cary, North Carolina, 27513 • Telephone (919) 678-2220 ISP 1004 TEXTILE PRINTING This report is sponsored by the Importer Support Program and written to address the technical needs of product sourcers. © 2003 Cotton Incorporated. All rights reserved; America’s Cotton Producers and Importers. INTRODUCTION The desire of adding color and design to textile materials is almost as old as mankind. Early civilizations used color and design to distinguish themselves and to set themselves apart from others. Textile printing is the most important and versatile of the techniques used to add design, color, and specialty to textile fabrics. It can be thought of as the coloring technique that combines art, engineering, and dyeing technology to produce textile product images that had previously only existed in the imagination of the textile designer. Textile printing can realistically be considered localized dyeing. In ancient times, man sought these designs and images mainly for clothing or apparel, but in today’s marketplace, textile printing is important for upholstery, domestics (sheets, towels, draperies), floor coverings, and numerous other uses. The exact origin of textile printing is difficult to determine. However, a number of early civilizations developed various techniques for imparting color and design to textile garments. Batik is a modern art form for developing unique dyed patterns on textile fabrics very similar to textile printing. Batik is characterized by unique patterns and color combinations as well as the appearance of fracture lines due to the cracking of the wax during the dyeing process. Batik is derived from the Japanese term, “Ambatik,” which means “dabbing,” “writing,” or “drawing.” In Egypt, records from 23-79 AD describe a hot wax technique similar to batik.

  • Evaluation of Independent Mesh Modeling for Textile Composites
    EVALUATION OF INDEPENDENT MESH MODELING FOR TEXTILE COMPOSITES A Thesis by JEFFREY SCOTT MCQUIEN Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, John D. Whitcomb Committee Members, Mohammad Naraghi Terry Creasy Head of Department, Rodney Bowersox May 2017 Major Subject: Aerospace Engineering Copyright 2017 Jeffrey Scott McQuien ABSTRACT The Independent Mesh Method (IMM) was used to analyze stress distributions within a unit cell model for a symmetrically stacked plain weave textile composite. Results from these analyses were compared to those of conventional finite element analyses, which are well established. Preliminary comparisons showed extreme dis- agreement between the two methodologies. Further investigation into the source of these differences led to significant corrections to the IMM implementation. After these updates, much better agreement between the two methodologies was observed; however, noticeable differences were still present. The remaining differences were characterized using a simple two-inclusion model upon which the impacts of the penalty displacement method, which the IMM relies upon heavily, were more appar- ent. It was shown that the implementation of the penalty displacement method for maintaining approximate displacement continuity between two surfaces induces sig- nificant error in stress distributions close to the interface. While these effects are less noticeable in the plain weave model, they are still present and diminish the fidelity of stress information in important tow-matrix interface regions, prohibiting the reliable prediction of damage initiation and growth. ii DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to my father, without whom, it would have never been.

The main objective of this study was to gain a generalgenerall understandingundndererststananddiingg of the livelihoods present amongst the population of the urban poor and the context in considered whichhicch theythheyy exist, so as to form a foundation for future programming. Three groups of urban poor in the city were identi ed through qualitative interviews: street children, squatters, and slum dwellers. Slum dwellers became the principal interest upon considering the context, aims and limits of the study. Qualitative interviews with key actors at community and household levels, questionnaires at a household level, and several other supplementary investigations formed the remainder of the study. Ultimately, six different livelihood strategies were identi ed and described: Non-poor Casual Labourers, Poor Casual Labourers, Non-quali ed Salary, Quali ed Salary, Vocation or Services, and Petty Traders and Street Vendors. Each of the livelihood strategies identi ed held vulnerabilities, though the severity of these varies between both the type of vulnerability and group. Vulnerabilities of the entire slum population of Kampala include land tenure issues, malnutrition monitoring, and enumeration information. Those at a community and area level include the risk of persistent ooding, unhygienic and unsanitary practices, and full realisation of bene ts of social networks. Finally, major household vulnerabilities included lack of urban agriculture, and lack of credit.

  • Efficient Three Dimensional Modelling of Additive Manufactured Textile Structures
    Efficient Three Dimensional Modelling of Additive Manufactured Textile Structures G. A. Bingham* *Loughborough Design School, Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK, LE11 3TU Abstract Textile structures realised by Additive Manufacturing (AM) techniques have received increasing attention during the previous decade. Due to their potential to significantly improve upon both the geometric complexity and functionality available from conventional fibre-based textiles, AM textiles present a serious opportunity to design and develop novel solutions for conventional and high-performance textile applications. AM textiles also provide the capability to produce net-shape textile artefacts and allow the development of personalised, high-performance textiles from a variety of materials currently being processed by AM technologies. While the motivation exists for the wider-scale adoption of these novel structures, practical access to an efficient three dimensional (3D) modelling strategy limits their applications. The research presented here discusses the issues surrounding the 3D modelling of complex AM textiles and discusses dedicated methodologies developed for the generation of their conformal data. The research culminates with a robust methodology for the generation of AM textile apparel data suitable for manufacture by AM techniques. Introduction Research in the area of Additive Manufactured (AM) textiles has mainly concentrated on the development of efficient modelling strategies for the creation of the three dimensional (3D) Computer Aided Design (CAD) data required for their manufacture by AM techniques [Bingham et al 2007, Bingham 2007]. However, additional research has also been undertaken to address their mechanical properties, design and possible applications of these novel, complex structures [Crookston et al 2008, Johnson et al 2011]. Most recently, research has been undertaken to successfully design and manufacture AM textiles capable of attaining the British level one standard for stab-resistance [Johnson et al 2012].
