The bus system in Panama City works on a decentralized system - a license is issued for the route, and the drivers purchase and maintain their own bus. Sometimes several routes and buses are licensed by one operator who then hires several driver/conductor teams. Operators take pride in their buses, decorating them top to bottom.

Four years ago, public services were a luxury for most residents of Telenesti, a town of 9,000 people, whose water supply and sewer systems had not been repaired in 20 years.
In response, the local government teamed up with community members to prioritize the most pressing development needs and come up with projects to address them.
The United Nations and the Government of Sweden supported local authorities as they developed the town’s development strategy together with the community, and helped find funds to purchase equipment for waste disposal, and to rehabilitate the water supply and sewage systems in Telenesti.

Our reluctance to following some simple steps to prevent wastage of food is becoming an act of sin now. We, very irresponsibly are tossing life-saving food it bins as if it is of no good use for no one. The food we are wasting weighs billions of tons. And, the amount of food not being used to satisfy global hunger is epidemically increasing.
There is only one simple solution to this serious problem. Simply purchase, prepare, serve, eat and throw wisely. With a little helping hand offered by the latest technology, we can smartly save a huge amount of unutilized food and route it to those who can address their needs with this food. We can use Delicia to put an end to this problem up to the hilt.

Santorini is one of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea. It was devastated by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century BC, forever shaping its rugged landscape. The whitewashed, cubiform houses of its 2 principal towns, Fira and Oia, cling to cliffs above an underwater caldera (crater). They overlook the sea, small islands to the west and beaches made up of black, red and white lava pebbles.
Akrotiri, a Bronze Age settlement preserved under ash from the eruption, provides a frozen-in-time glimpse into Minoan life. The ruins of Ancient Thera lie on a dramatic bluff that drops to the sea on 3 sides. Fira, the island's commercial heart, has the Archaeological Museum of Thera and boutique shops. It also has a lively bar scene and tavernas serving local grilled seafood and dry white wine, made from the Assyrtiko grape. Oia is famous for sunsets over its old fortress [Santorini Google Travel]
The UN-Habitat in partnership with the Ministry of Decentralization, Housing and Territorial Administration, and the ANMCV (National Association of the Municipal Districts of Cape Verde) organized, in June 22nd to July 2nd, a training course for Local Leadership Trainers for all the cities of Cape Verde. The objective is to create training modules for the Local Leadership to support the process of strengthening capabilities in Strategic Planning for municipalities of Cape Verde.
This action is in the scope of implementation of the One Programme, signed between the different UN agencies and the Government, whose specific activities are included in subprogram 3 - the promotion of citizen participation for the preservation of urban development - and subprogram 4 – the strengthening of municipalities for strategic planning and local economic development.
The Resident Coordinator of the UN System in Cape Verde, Mrs. Narjess Saidani, recognizing the importance of the meeting, stressed at the time, that the UN would continue to cooperate with the Government in the decentralization process, with the aim to support efforts for steady improvement in the lives of people around the country. According to Mrs. Saidani, this establishes priorities and resources at the local level to respond effectively to the needs for a uniform development.
The Minister of Decentralization, Housing and Territorial Administration, Dr. Sara Lopes, pointed out that this training course and the participation of all municipalities, attest to their engagement to develop a culture of valuing human resources, in order to establish the decentralization process in Cape Verde. In addition, the Minister also mentioned, that the Ministry will continue to count on the support from the UN Habitat as well as other UN agencies.

For its inaugural exhibition at the new 511 Gallery at the new campus flagship, the Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Center for Art and Design, PNCA is pleased to present Gathering Autonomy: Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, the first retrospective exhibition of this print cooperative that produces graphics for activist organizations around events or actions.
Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative is a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to making print and design work that reflects a radical social, environmental, and political stance. With members working from the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, Justseeds operates both as a unified collaboration of similarly minded printmakers and as a loose collection of creative individuals with unique viewpoints and working methods. The Cooperative produces collective portfolios, contributes graphics to grassroots struggles for justice, builds large sculptural installations in galleries, and wheatpastes on the streets.
The exhibition will feature work by all 30 members from all over North America as well as a series of topical print portfolios issued by the group. The first of these will be Resourced, which focuses on resource extraction and climate issues, and includes 26 artist prints.
The exhibition will also incorporate PNCA’s alumni-run Creative Activism Lab which will be putting Justseeds methods into practice locally with groups like the immigration rights group, VOZ. The Creative Activism Lab, led by Carmen Denison, Lauren Heagerty, and Danny Mackin, will set up a small print studio in the 511 Gallery and run workshops with students throughout the course of the exhibition.
This exhibition has spawned several programs that are being coordinated by the Creative Activism Lab (CAL), founded in 2014 by PNCA alumni, CAL is a pseudo-institutionalized organization dedicated to exploring and advancing the intersection of art, activism, and social justice.
These programs include:

Women learning computer skills at the vocational training and rehabilitation Center in Haret Hreik. UNDP supported its establishment in partnership with the Swedish government in 2011 together with the Municipality of Haret Hreik. The primary objective of the training center is to alleviate unemployment and generate better income for the population of Beirut Southern Suburbs, a densely populated region comprising nearly 30% of the entire Lebanese population and confronting major socioeconomic challenges , the most adverse being unemployment and lack of job opportunities.
“Some 1,484 beneficiaries have received training since the centre was opened, of whom the majority are women,” said the center’s director Ali Mustafa. The center holds classes for women in agro-food processing, cooking, IT skills, crafts, and beauty, among other subjects, and there are other courses on electric installations and mobile maintenance that are tailored specifically for men. Each of these sixty-hour courses lasts for nearly three months.
