    he situation of women in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) presents a paradox. Decades of G ender and D MENA DEVELOPMENT REPORT Tinvestment and improved policies have greatly increased women’s education and health and have reduced their fertility rate. However, the expected payoffs in higher employment and economic growth have not materialized. Because of cultural and political barriers, only a third of women are in the labor force—the lowest rate in the world. Public Disclosure Authorized In a global economy that values mental power over physical might, the region’s new comparative Gender and Development advantage could well be its large, educated work force and, increasingly, its female work force. Future econom- ic growth must rely on human resources rather than on the natural resources relied on in the past.Women e remain a huge, untapped reservoir of human potential. Gender issues have been seen as a peripheral con- v in the Middle East and cern that resided mainly within the realm of the social sectors.Yet gender is ultimately also an economic issue. elopment in the M Gender and Development in the Middle East and North Africa recognizes the complexity of gender issues, explores the causes of gender inequality, and proposes an agenda for change.The book has been endorsed North Africa by two tireless advocates for gender equality: Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah of Jordan and Shirin Ebadi.

  • Ancient Secret of Enlightenment Sat-Chit-Anand Water Show
    GANDHINAGAR ANCIENT SECRET OF ENLIGHTENMENT SAT-CHIT-ANAND WATER SHOW We wonder what happens when fire flows like water and water flames like fire… When sound paint pictures and colors sing songs… When clouds come down and rains go up... When laser begin to crawl and rocks begin to melt... When the light from the past illuminates the stars of our future... When science and spirituality hold hands... Time stops the mind opens and heart prays... Amidst a mist of mysticism, the great Upanishads come alive... And the ancient secret is revealed! INTRODUCTION: The Sat-Chit-Anand Water Show is a new, enchanting addition to the Swaminarayan Akshardham complex in Gandhinagar, the capital city of Gujarat. ‘Sat’ means Truth, ‘Chit’ means Consciousness and ‘Anand’ means Bliss: Consciousness of the Ultimate Truth leads to the experience of Eternal Bliss. The show reveals this ancient secret of India through the gripping Upanishadic story of Nachiketa, a nine-year-old boy who bravely confronts Yamaraj, the god of death, and receives from him the knowledge of immortality and eternal happiness. It is the world’s first water show created to convey a spiritual message through a delighful fusion of lasers, lights, water, fire, sound, animation, video projection and live characters. THE STORY: The show begins with a mystical introduction to India's cultural and spiritual glory using colourful combinations of water, lasers and lights. The narrator then introduces the story of Nachiketa - a fearless and determined 9-year-old boy who has been an inspiration to the countless generations of children of India since ancient times.
