It is one of the most important European foundations, both for the resources it owns and manages, and for the transformative impact it has on society, developing its work in Portugal and throughout the world, through direct and distributive activities, perfectly articulated by a vision and a common mission: to contribute to the construction of a more just, inclusive and sustainable society in which citizens live and participate, freely and consciously, with equal opportunities. Headquartered in Lisbon, the Foundation has a Museum, which houses the Founder’s private collection and a collection of modern and contemporary art; an Orchestra and a Choir; an Art and Archive Library; a significant number of auditoriums, concert and congress halls; a Delegation in the United Kingdom and another in France; a Scientific Research Institute, and a Garden, a unique space in the city of Lisbon in which educational, cultural and artistic activities also take Calouste Sarkis Gulbenkian place. at age 80 in Les enclos. © DR Together with these cultural activities, the Foundation also fulfils its mission through innovative programmes, which not only create and develop pilot projects, but also support, through scholarships and grants, different institutions and social organisations, focused on the three priority areas strategically defined for the period 2018-2022 – cohesion and social integration, Calouste Sarkis Gulbenkian was born on 23 March 1869, in Üsküdar, Istanbul, sustainability, and knowledge – which are reflected across the whole of its intervention.

  • Algeria Upstream OG Report.Pub
    ALGERIA UPSTREAM OIL & GAS REPORT Completed by: M. Smith, Sr. Commercial Officer, K. Achab, Sr. Commercial Specialist, and B. Olinger, Research Assistant Introduction Regulatory Environment Current Market Trends Technical Barriers to Trade and More Competitive Landscape Upcoming Events Best Prospects for U.S. Exporters Industry Resources Introduction Oil and gas have long been the backbone of the Algerian economy thanks to its vast oil and gas reserves, favorable geology, and new opportunities for both conventional and unconventional discovery/production. Unfortunately, the collapse in oil prices beginning in 2014 and the transition to spot market pricing for natural gas over the last three years revealed the weaknesses of this economic model. Because Algeria has not meaningfully diversified its economy since 2014, oil and gas production is even more essential than ever before to the government’s revenue base and political stability. Today’s conjoined global health and economic crises, coupled with persistent declining production levels, have therefore placed Algeria’s oil and gas industry, and the country, at a critical juncture where it requires ample foreign investment and effective technology transfer. One path to the future includes undertaking new oil and gas projects in partnership with international companies (large and small) to revitalize production. The other path, marked by inertia and institutional resistance to change, leads to oil and gas production levels in ten years that will be half of today's production levels. After two decades of autocracy, Algeria’s recent passage of a New Hydrocarbons Law seems to indicate that the country may choose the path of partnership by profoundly changing its tax and investment laws in the hydrocarbons sector to re-attract international oil companies.

  • Abstract African and African
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN AND AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES HILL, ERNESS A. B.A. SPELMAN COLLEGE, 1998 REFLECTIONS OF THE PAST: THE CASE OF MOZAMBICAN ART. THE MACONDE AND THE SHETANI Advisor: Dr. Mustafah Dhada Thesis dated December, 2000 This thesis examines to what extent the shetani icon in Maconde Art has been elevated to the status of deity; and what powers it has been endowed with to transform the lives of its "worshippers." The investigation was based on the observation that, although not a recognized 'god' in the traditional Maconde form of worship, nor that of Mozambique, the shetani’s appearance in Mozambican art was consistent and abundant. The investigative approach used was a comparative analysis of three internationally known Mozambican artists, two of which are Maconde. The researcher found that with all three artists, the shetani was an obvious element in their artistic renderings and in each instance, their individual lives, though not unique, were charged with suffering and unhappiness. The conclusion drawn from this investigation suggests that, although created by a Maconde for the purpose of patronage, the shetani icon has become a 'deity' not only for the Maconde, but for Mozambicans, as well. While not 'worshipped' in the sense that Westerners worship, it has been endowed with powers that transform the lives of those who identify with it. At the very least, it has been endowed with the power to promote their artistic abilities with a view to catalyzing greater creativity.

  • Calouste Gulbenkian's Long Path, from His Childhood in Istanbul to The
    CALOUSTE GULBENKIAN PRIZE (2017-2021) Regulation 2017 edition INTRODUCTION Calouste Gulbenkian’s long path, from his childhood in Istanbul to the latter years of his life in Lisbon (emblematic cities at the eastern and western edges of Europe), shaped his personality and influenced the Foundation that he decided to create in Portugal as a Portuguese institution. A pioneer in the oil industry, a demanding art collector, a diplomat and philanthropist, Calouste Gulbenkian was a perfect example of the synthesis of the eastern culture of his birth and origins, and the western culture in which he was educated and lived. Other revealing features of his character were his great sensitivity towards the harmony of nature and a particular taste for admiring its beauty. The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, an international philanthropic institution, open to the world, seeks to support actions which contribute to the construction of a fairer and more solidary society, where equal opportunities and sustainability help to prepare the citizens of the future. The Calouste Gulbenkian Prize is given annually. It aims to pay tribute to the Founder, recognizing individuals or institutions that have distinguished themselves, due to their relevance and work in the area of Human Rights. FIRST Objective and Term 1. The Calouste Gulbenkian Prize aim to recognise an individual or a private non- profit legal person who have distinguished themselves internationally in the defence and implementation of Human Rights. In 2017, special attention will be given to refugee issues. SECOND Value The value of the Calouste Gulbenkian Prize will be 100,000 € (one hundred thousand euros). THIRD Decision Making Procedure 1.

Ela/ele será forçado/a a um confronto desconfortável com «Outras» verdades. Verdades que foram negadas e mantidas no silêncio, como segredos. Gosto muito da frase inglesa «quiet as it’s kept». É uma expressão das comunidades da diáspora africana que anuncia que alguém está prestes a revelar algo que se presume ser segredo. Segredos como a escravatura. Segredos como o colonialismo. Segredos como o racismo.1 Grada Kilomba é uma escritora, uma teórica e uma artista interdisciplinar com um percurso ativo na cena artística berlinense, a cidade onde vive e trabalha. Nascida em Lisboa, as suas raízes estendem-se a São Tomé e Príncipe e a Angola. A sua obra aborda questões em torno dos temas da política de género e de raça e das ideias de trauma e memória, seja no âmbito das problemáticas atuais sobre o colonialismo e o pós-colonialismo no início do século XXI, seja para investigar as relações ambíguas entre memória e esquecimento, o imaginário coletivo e a identidade africana e das suas diásporas. Evocando as tradições orais africanas e o seu poder de perpetuação da palavra, a obra da artista 21 dá voz a narrativas silenciadas com o intuito de reescrever e recontar uma história que foi negada ou omitida.
