    Cultures of Peace: the Hidden Elise Boulding Is a Noted American Sociologist and Pioneer in Side of History and the Peace Studies Movement

    Building a Culture of Peace For the Children of the World This exhibit brings together the ideas of hundreds of people and organizations dedicated to finding a path to lasting peace. We hope that you will leave with renewed confidence that a culture of peace is possible— and a necessity for life on earth. Everything that is needed to build a culture of peace already exists in each of our hearts. As stated in the United Nations definition, a Culture of Peace is a set of values, attitudes, modes of behavior and ways of life that reject violence and prevent conflicts by tackling their root causes and solving problems through dialogue and negotiation among individuals, groups and nations. Barriers to Peace Environmental Isolationism “It is not the violence of a few Irresponsibility People can become frightened by the rising tide of internationalism.

    Related international commitments and the UN role in disaster risk reduction 6 6.2 UN agencies and scope of activities Introduction The United Nations system is a mosaic that reflects the complexity of activities to be conducted in order to fulfil the objectives and principles of the Charter of the United Nations. It is composed of principal organs, specialized agencies and other autonomous organizations carrying out specific mandates. Reducing vulnerability and risk to natural or man-made hazards is addressed by many enti- ties of the United Nations system within the framework of their respective field of activities. By estab- lishing the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR) as the successor arrangement to the International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction (IDNDR, 1990-2000), the international community recognized the need for a consolidated and coordinated approach to disaster and risk reduction by concerned entities within and outside the United Nations system. The purpose of this section is to give an indication of how the parts of the United Nations system function when it comes to disaster and risk reduction. It is a general overview, which does not include disaster relief or emergency management activities. This brief assessment of the key players within the United Nations system and their action in disaster reduction seeks to demonstrate the potential for increased coherence in this field and facilitate a targeted approach to the system by Governments and other entities. Graphic overview of the United Nations system in relation to disaster reduction Only United Nations entities relevant to disaster reduction are mentioned. This overview is not intended to illustrate a comprehensive explanation of the complete United Nations system or hierarchy.

A long border with Mauritania extends from the north, then juts west to Senegal. In the west, Mali borders Senegal and Guinea; to the south, Côte d'Ivoire; to the south-east Burkina Faso, and in the east, Niger. The country straddles the Sahara and Sahel, home primarily to nomadic herders, and the less-arid south, predominately populated by farming peoples. The Niger River arches through southern and central Mali, where it feeds sizeable lakes. The Senegal river is an important resource in the west. Mali has mineral resources, notably gold and phosphorous. Peoples Main languages: French (official), Bambara, Fulfulde (Peulh), Songhai, Tamasheq. Main religions: Islam (90%), traditional religions (6%), Christian (4%). Main minority groups: Peulh (also called Fula or Fulani) 1.4 million (11%), Senoufo and Minianka 1.2 million (9.6%), Soninké (Saracolé) 875,000 (7%), Songhai 875,000 (7%), Tuareg and Maure 625,000 (5%), Dogon 550,000 (4.4%) Bozo 350,000 (2.8%), Diawara 125,000 (1%), Xaasongaxango (Khassonke) 120,000 (1%). [Note: The percentages for Peulh, Soninke, Manding (mentioned below), Songhai, and Tuareg and Maure, as well as those for religion in Mali, come from the U.S. State Department background note on Mali, 2007; Data for Senoufo and Minianka groups comes from Ethnologue - some from 2000 and some from 1991; for Dogon from Ethnologue, 1998; for Diawara and Xaasonggaxango from Ethnologue 1991; Percentages are converted to numbers and vice-versa using the State Department's 2007 estimated total population of 12.5 million.] Around half of Mali's population consists of Manding (or Mandé) peoples, including the Bambara (Bamana) and the Malinké.

Entitled “Commitments and Actions for Culture in Sustainable Cities”, the event focused on knowledge-sharing, peer-learning and networking, illustrating the role of culture in local sustainable development with specific examples and enabling further cooperation at local, regional and global level. Gathering over 500 participants, this biennial Summit can be seen as the world’s largest gathering of cities for culture, involving local governments, international organisations, national governments, non-governmental organisations, artists, academics and other stakeholders that are committed to the effective implementation of policies and programmes on culture and sustainability. The second Culture Summit of UCLG responded to the growing importance given to the nexus of culture, cities and sustainable development by international organisations and frameworks. Recent milestones include the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (adopted in September 2015), the New Urban Agenda (adopted by the Habitat III Conference in Quito, October 2016) and the Statement of the 2nd World Assembly of Local and Regional Governments (also adopted in Quito, October 2016).
  • COVID-19 in Mexico: a Network of Epidemics

    COVID-19 in Mexico: a Network of Epidemics

    COVID-19 in Mexico: A Network of Epidemics Guillermo de Anda-J´auregui1;2 1 Computational Genomics Division, National Institute of Genomic Medicine, Mexico City, Mexico 2C´atedrasConacyt Para J´ovenes Investigadores, National Council on Science and Technology, Mexico City, Mexico Abstract Mexico, like the rest of the world, is currently facing the The COVID-19 pan- demic. Given the size of its territory, the efforts to contain the disease have involved both national and regional measures. For this work, the curves of daily new cases of each municipality reported by the federal government were com- pared. We found that 114 municipalities form a large network of statistically dependent epidemic phenomena. Based on the network's modular structure, these 114 municipalities can be split into four distinct communities of coor- dinated epidemic phenomena. These clusters are not limited by geographical proximity. These findings can be helpful for public health officials for the eval- uation of past strategies and the development of new directed interventions. 1 Introduction Mexico reported its first imported case of COVID-19 in late February [1]. Since then, COVID-19 has extended throughout the Mexican territory, with over 90,000 accumulated cases and over 10,000 confirmed deaths by June 2020 [2] The federal government reported a major re-conversion project to increase its hospital capacity [3]. Due to the lack of pharmacological treatments against SARS-CoV-2, Mexico, like the rest of the world, resorted to the use of Non Pharmacological Interventions (NPI) to manage the spread of the disease; these arXiv:2006.11635v1 [physics.soc-ph] 20 Jun 2020 efforts were branded as the "National Period of Healthy Distance" ("Jornada Nacional de Sana Distancia," JNSD), originally planned to last from March 23rd to April 30th, and then extended through May 30th [4].

Therefore, it is vital to understand the contribution of academic studies on urban agriculture practices as scientific information. The present study followed a systematic literature review based on the PRISMA method. Finally, 54 identified articles were analyzed. The review study mainly examined the contribution of academic literature on urban agriculture under four dimensions: the socio- economic context of the country, type of agriculture model, opportunities, and challenges. The results revealed the focus of academic literature on urban agriculture to show favoritism toward developed countries’ community gardens. Moreover, the leading academic focus on this discipline identifies multifunctionality. People’s motivations in developed countries tend to favor social, health-related, and educational benefits of urban agriculture; however, in developing countries, urban agriculture is more related to economic and ecological needs. Challenges for urban agriculture are also different among developed and developing countries. Nevertheless, existing academic studies have given Citation: Wadumestrige Dona, C.G.; comparatively less attention to identifying challenges, benefit groups of urban agriculture, and Mohan, G.; Fukushi, K.
