The list of indicators was included as Annex IV to the IAEG-SDGs Report (E/CN.3/2016/2/Rev.1) presented at the 47th session of the UN Statistical Commission held in March 2016 and then taken note of by the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) at its 70th session in June 2016. A general agreement has been reached on all indicators, even though the list is considered as a starting point towards a definitive indicator framework. According to ECOSOC Resolution 2006/6, the estimates used to redefine the list of indicators must be collected in cooperation with national statistical authorities, since individual countries’ situations may notably vary from regional averages. The 4th meeting of the IAEG-SDGs was held from 15 to 18 November 2016 in Geneva, hosted by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE). It consisted of a Members meeting and a plenary session with the participation of national representatives, several international organisations and NGOs.

Niklas Helwig aus Schwalmstadt Referent: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Wessels, Universität zu Köln Korreferent: Dr. Juliet Kaarbo, University of Edinburgh Tag der Promotion: 8. September 2014 Fr Oma Acknowledgements It would not have been possible to write this doctoral thesis without the help and support of the kind people around me, to only some of whom it is possible to give particular mention here. I would like to thank the EXACT Marie Curie ITN on EU external action funded by the European Commission for their generous financial, intellectual and administrative support. The extremely well-organised project director Wulf Reiners deserves a special mention. Without his cool-headed management, the ambitious endeavour of a European-wide PhD school would hardly have been as successful as it was. EXACT provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me and the other early-stage re- searchers to connect, learn and grow. I would like to thank my supervisors. I am grateful for the ideas and encouragement of John Peterson over the past four years. Especially during the period that the EXACT fellows were based in Edinburgh, he took great care of us, making sure we felt at home and as a part of the scientific community of the Politics and International Relations de- partment. I know for sure that my academic progress so far would not have been possible without my second supervisor and mentor, Wolf- gang Wessels.

  • AGNIESZKA HOLLAND Fot
    Kobiety w historii – wczoraj i dziś MOGE BYC PROGRAM edukacyjny AGNIESZKA HOLLAND fot. Martinfot. Kraft Kultura Reżyserka Agnieszka Holland jest jedną z najbardziej znanych polskich reżyserek filmowych. Studiowała na Wydziale Filmowym i Telewizyjnym Akademii Sztuk Scenicznych w Pradze. W 1980 roku otrzymała prestiżową nagrodę FIPRESCI (Międzynarodowej Federacji Krytyków Filmowych) podczas 33. Międzynarodowego Festiwalu Filmowego w Cannes za swój pierwszy pełnometrażowy film kinowy pt. „Aktorzy prowincjonalni”. O tym, jak bardzo jest ceniona na całym świecie, świadczyć mogą liczne nagrody i nominacje w prestiżowych konkursach, np. Srebrny Niedźwiedź za film „Pokot” na Berlinale w 2017 roku, czy ostatnio Złote Lwy za film „Obywatel Jones” na Festiwalu Polskich Filmów Fabularnych w Gdyni. Filmy Agnieszki Holland były trzy razy nominowane do Oscarów. Pisze scenariusze nie tylko do własnych filmów, ale i innych reżyserów, w tym do kilku filmów Andrzeja Wajdy. Współpracowała także jako konsultant scenariusza przy słynnej trylogii Krzysztofa Kieślowskiego pt. „Trzy kolory”. „Momenty, w których podejmuję decyzję, żeby robić film, często są przypadkowe. Spotykam się z jakimś tekstem, historią i nagle czuję, że to zaczyna we mnie pracować, pączkować, że wytwarzają się połączenia między mną a tym tematem czy też między rzeczywistością a tematem” - mówiła w wywiadzie, który powstał na potrzeby społecznej kampanii edukacyjnej Legalna Kultura. W 2001 roku Agnieszka Holland została odznaczona Krzyżem Oficerskim Orderu Odrodzenia Polski. Wyróżnienie to przyznał jej Prezydent RP Aleksander Kwaśniewski za wybitne zasługi dla polskiej kultury. Agnieszka Holland jest członkiem Europejskiej Akademii Filmowej. Na słynnej ul. Piotrkowskiej w Łodzi w 1998 roku odsłonięto jej gwiazdę w Alei Gwiazd. Poza reżyserowaniem i pisaniem scenariuszy zajmuje się również tłumaczeniem literatury czeskiej na język polski.

The Pitfalls of ‘UN- iversalising’ Wonder Woman https://www.e-ir.info/2016/10/30/amazon-american-or-israeli-the-pitfalls-of-un-iversalising-wonder-woman/ ROBERT A. SAUNDERS, OCT 30 2016 Back in 2009, Barack Obama’s smiling visage graced the cover of The Amazing Spider-Man #583 just a week before his presidential inauguration, while this year Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared on a variant cover of Civil War II: Choosing Sides #5 , sporting boxing gloves and ready to take on his (political) foes. While comic book junkies like me recognised these events as major milestones on the road to mainstream recognition of the link between popular culture and world politics, they pale in comparison to what happened earlier this week. Wonder Woman, a fictional character that dates back to the early 1940s, has prompted an international backlash at the United Nations. The controversy stems from a 21 October 2016 ceremony in which the superhero was named a UN Honorary Ambassador for the Empowerment of Women and Girls. As the UN web page on the project notes: The Wonder Woman campaign will highlight what we can collectively achieve if women and girls are empowered – along with examples of women and girls who have made and are making a difference every day by overcoming barriers and beating the odds to reach their goals.

For seven years now, Javier Solana has been the chief diplomat of the European Union. During that period, the man and his office have become so closely intertwined as to make it almost impossible to imagine anyone else in this demanding role. On 18 October 1999, when the affable Spaniard moved from NATO headquarters on the outskirts of Brussels to the seat of the EU Council on Place Robert Schuman, the post of High Representative for the common foreign and security policy of the Union existed only in embryonic form.
