  • Palestinians in Lebanon

    Palestinians in Lebanon

    Country Policy and Information Note Lebanon: Palestinians Version 1.0 June 2018 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the basis of claim section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis of COI; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Analysis This section analysises the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment on whether, in general: x A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm x A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) x A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory x Claims are likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and x If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must, however, still consider all claims on an individual basis, taking into account each case’s specific facts. Country of origin information The country information in this note has been carefully selected in accordance with the general principles of COI research as set out in the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation’s (ACCORD), Researching Country Origin Information – Training Manual, 2013.

  • Research and Innovation Strategy for Møre Og Romsdal 2016-2020

    Research and Innovation Strategy for Møre Og Romsdal 2016-2020

    A manifest partner Research and Innovation Strategy for Møre og Romsdal 2016-2020 Research and innovation strategy 2016-2020 2 FOREWORD Foreword The region of Møre og Romsdal is currently in a period of change. The regional authority has therefore developed a research and innovation strategy to meet the challenges faced by businesses in the region. This strategy has been compiled by applying the "Smart Specialisation" method, in which the interaction between businesses, research groups and the public support system is a central aspect. The region of Møre og Romsdal has been awarded a place on a European Commission study together with sev- eral other regions in Europe, and the study involving Møre og Romsdal comprises part of the knowledge platform on which the new strategy has been based. The fact that our region has been studied and assessed by external parties eliminates any reservations that our new strategy has been based on myths and theories that cannot be documented. The analyses that were part of the study provided us with excellent guidelines in terms of both content and process for the strategy, and these have broadly been followed in the strategy process. The strategy document shows us what our target areas must be if we are to ensure competitive businesses for the future. These are in principle as follows: • A general need for change and a higher rate of inno- vation within businesses. • A reduction in petroleum-related activities with con- sequences for large parts of the maritime industry. • The green shift and its requirements on sustainability and reduced environmental impact.
  • Funding Systems and Their Effects on Higher Education Systems

    Funding Systems and Their Effects on Higher Education Systems

    Funding Systems and Their Effects on Higher Education Systems NATIONAL STUDY – NORWAY November 2006 Nicoline Frølich NIFU STEP – Studies in Innovation, Research and Education Funding Systems and their Effects on Higher Education Systems – Norway Executive Summary In 2002 Norway introduced a new performance-based funding model for higher education in response to growth in the number of students and costs of higher education. The model aims to improve education as measured by the credits and graduates produced, increase research as measured by research publications, and enhance external relevance as measured by external funding. The model is still being developed. Formal explicit links between the fund- ing system and national higher education policies have been established as a result of a re- cent reform in Norwegian higher education (the Quality Reform). The various stakeholders have identified several intended and unintended effects of the funding system on higher education and on the core tasks of teaching and research. Accord- ing to the Ministry of Education and Research, the performance-based funding system will improve the quality of research and higher education, as these are best safeguarded by means of a funding system that emphasises results. The Norwegian Association of Higher Education Institutions (the Rectors’ Conference) has identified several elements in the financing system that contribute to the development of HEIs. Incentives are viewed as a means of encouraging institutions to increase the quality of their educational programmes and research and to implement more structural changes. However, the Rectors’ Conference acknowledges that a funding model with financial rewards could produce unintended effects and advocates monitoring the consequences.

  • Guide for Descendants of Lebanese Origin to Claim the Lebanese Nationality

    Guide for Descendants of Lebanese Origin To Claim the Lebanese Nationality Issued by the Consulate General of Lebanon in Melbourne 2018 © Consulate General of Lebanon – Melbourne 2018 Page 2 of 12 Why this Guide? There are several factors that led to the loss of the Lebanese nationality to children of Lebanese origin, most important of which is the failure of some grandfathers to register their children, especially after they have been granted the Australian citizenship and integrated into the Australian society throughout generations, in addition to their lack of knowledge of the Arabic language due to the absence of Lebanese cultural institutions and schools in the country for a long time. The Consulate General of Lebanon in Melbourne prepared this guide for those of Lebanese origin to provide them with information about the procedures for registration to claim the Lebanese nationality and to facilitate the right for claiming this nationality to those who lost it because their migrant ancestors did not register officially at the Lebanese Embassy and Consulates in Australia. Lebanon gives great importance to encouraging descendants of Lebanese emigrants to register themselves and to claim their Lebanese nationality. Thus, Law No. 41 dated 24/11/2015 was implemented for this purpose, which facilitates these procedures by granting citizenship by decree to the descendant whose name or the name of any direct paternal ancestral/predecessors or next of kin to the second degree is clearly indicated in the records of the 1920-1921 census for residents and migrants at the Ministry of Interior and Municipalities and the Records of Emigration for the year 1932 census for migrants who neglected to claim Lebanese citizenship at the time, noting that the benefit of this law will be valid within ten years only from the date of issue.

    Interprofessional Collaboration in Reintegration After Prison for Prisoners with Substance Abuse Issues: a Scoping Review

    IJCJ&SD 2021 Advance Online Publication ISSN 2202-8005 Interprofessional Collaboration in Reintegration After Prison for Prisoners with Substance Abuse Issues: A Scoping Review Bjørn Kjetil Larsen Volda University College; Molde University College, Norway Karl Yngvar Dale Molde University College, Norway Atle Ødegård Molde University College; Nordland Research Institute, Norway Abstract For decades, reintegration after prison for prisoners with interlinked welfare needs has presented one of the greatest challenges in the criminal justice system. The World Health Organization and the United Nations have highlighted the demand for well-functioning collaboration between professionals and welfare agencies handling these challenges. However, interprofessional collaboration has been an underdeveloped field of research and theory, especially concerning prisoners with substance abuse issues. The present study undertakes a scoping review of research on interprofessional collaboration in reintegration after prison for prisoners with substance abuse issues, particularly identifying factors that influence collaboration. Nineteen included studies from the USA, the UK, Australia, and Norway show that relational and structural factors influence collaboration and innovative projects are perceived as improving collaboration. A tentative conceptual model of factors that influence collaboration is presented, which may serve as a basis for reflection and further development of a theoretical framework within the field of research.
