Women, Peace and Security In 2000 the UN Security Council adopted Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 on "Women, Peace and Security". It acknowledges the disproportionate effects of war and conflict on women, as well as the influence women can and must have in prevention and resolution of conflict, and in peace and reconstruction processes. Its main goals are to enhance women's role and decision-making capacities with regard to conflict prevention, conflict resolution and peace building; and to significantly improve factors that directly influence women's security. Finland launched its National Action Plan on the implementation of UNSCR 1325 in 2008. The main objective of this research is to contribute to the understanding of, and provide practical recommendations on, how the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland can: i) Implement Finland's National Action Plan on 1325 through development cooperation, especially its commitment to facilitate women's participation in decision-making in conflict situations, peace processes and post-conflict activities, as well as to protect women in conflicts; ii) Support conflict prevention and post conflict development by strengthening women's role, and empowering women in countries with fragile situations; and; iii) Monitor and measure the Security and Peace Women, progress of such implementation. In addition, the study explored three specific, innovative themes relevant for the question of Women, Peace and Security: i) Involvement of Men; ii) Internally Displaced Persons; and iii) Environment. This study was carried out from April to December 2009 and included case studies in Kenya, Nepal and North-Eastern India, all of which represent countries or areas in diverse and complex conflict and post-conflict situations. Kenya and Nepal are long-term development cooperation partners of Finland. North-Eastern India, which has had an on-going, protracted conflict since 1947, was selected on the basis of the relatively numerous women's groups in the area which have had extensive, successful experience in promoting gender equitable policies.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION IN A CARTOON in a Rio de Janeiro satirical magazine (fig. I.1), two black city dwellers chat in vernacular Portuguese about the infamous urban reforms that took place under Mayor Francisco Pereira Passos between 1903 and 1906. Their conversation touches on key aspects of the relationship between people of color, the government, and the modernizing spaces of the city: “The government’s knocking down houses; Mister Passos too. Mister Oswaldo from the hygiene department, he’s shutting down everything that don’t smell good . Tell me, where are we supposed to live?” “Well, I hear the experts been talking ’bout workers’ housing problems.” “To hell with the experts! You don’t make a house with words, or letters on a page. By the time they sort this out we’ll be in a fine mess!” “Well, there’s no way I’m living on the streets. When I have nowhere to lay down my bundle I’ll make some noise and force the government to put a roof over my head . .” “That’s easy for you to say, you don’t have a wife and children . .” “Then be like me—don’t have any! Nobody can make us! This is a free republic.” 3 © 2020 University of Pittsburgh Press. All rights reserved. 4 DEFIANT GEOGRAPHIES The magazine’s cartoonist imagines a discussion in which the humble black worker on the left criticizes city and state officials for their inaction in the face of the housing crisis that they have aggravated in a frenzy of demolition related to the reforms.

With it, the population over sixty-five increased from four to twelve percent of the United States population, and those over eighty-five became the fastest-growing demographic group. While growing old has become increasingly common, the processes of aging have not become welcomed or accepted.

    International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies (IJIRAS) ISSN: 2394-4404 Volume 3 Issue 8, July 2016 A Study On The Love Themes In Hao Laa (Tangkhul Naga Folksong) R. K. Pamri Department of Cultural and Creative Studies, North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya, India Abstract: Tangkhul is one of the Naga tribes residing in Ukhrul District of Manipur, in the North-Eastern part of India. Like any other tribe, the Tangkhuls have their own culture and traditions which set them apart from other neighbouring tribes. Their rich cultural heritage is narrated through folklore. One in particular is the Tangkhul folksong which has become a fundamental source of the history of the Tangkhuls since they had no tradition of written documentation from their early days. Communications in the form of songs, words, gestures and the like remain the bearer of their culture and customs for the continuing generations. In this paper some of the Hao laa in context to the theme of ‘love’ are studied and analyzed to bring out certain social significance. I. INTRODUCTION which now lie in the south-eastern part of the Xinjiang province.2 Music and song play a significant role in the different stages of human life starting from childhood to adolescence till death and these evolve around the different activities of human life. We find that lullabies are sung to pacify babies, game songs are found to have sung both by children as well as adults depending on the context of the game and many others. Again, elaborate songs are sung by the adults describing the ups and downs of life.

This has led to shift in land use in which polyculture of variety of traditional crops are being slowly replaced by market driven monoculture system of cultivation to meet the demands to market on one side and maximization of production on the other side. As a result, the traditional crops in homegarden are being threatened in many areas. A study on conservation of tradition crops in homegarden in Tangkhul community in Ukhrul District of Manipur, India was carried out to assess the impact of such change in terms of crop species and their socioecological significance. A total of 73 plant species of economic, social and cultural values belonging to 27 families were recorded in homegardens. Result of this study shows that Tangkhul traditional community has vast indigenous knowledge on conservation of biodiversity in limited homegarden sites. Understanding traditional knowledge concerning HGs and how this form the knowledge for choice of species across the local community could help developing better strategies for sustainable management of traditional homegarden.
