Ethiopia’s government plans to transform Ethiopia into a middle-income country by 2025, and big hydraulic infrastructure projects are central to this vision. But while such projects can stimulate ‘green growth’ and reduce vulnerability (including to climate change), they may not benefit poor people and preserve the environmental assets on which they depend.
This picture shows the Ribb Dam, currently under construction in Amhara state, which aims to harness the flow of the Ribb River to irrigate about 20,000 hectares in the Fogera plain. This is a densely populated area, with 12,000 people involved in a mixed farming system. Despite the potential benefits of the dam in terms of job creation and recreational opportunities, there is no plan to relocate the displaced communities – many of whom have either received late compensation or none at all.

Guyana is the world’s largest producer of Atlantic seabob, a commercially important shrimp captured from the Atlantic coast of the US all the way down to Brazil.
Seabob is fished by industrial trawlers and by artisanal fishers.
Most of the industrial catch is processed into frozen, peeled shrimp to supply both local and international markets, making seabob Guyana’s most important seafood export.
Seabob landed by artisanal fishers and bycatch of commercial value, including white belly shrimp, are processed into dried and smoked products or sold fresh on local markets.
FISH4ACP aims to enhance the productivity and competitiveness of Atlantic seabob fisheries in Guyana. The Marine Steward Council certification obtained in 2019 will help to consolidate the position of the sector in existing markets and facilitate access to new ones.
FISH4CP is an initiative of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (OACPS) implemented by FAO with funding from the European Union (EU) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Cooperation and Development (BMZ).

For Core Studio project. We were assigned a mythical character from which we had to distill an inherent dichotomy and create a visual profile around it.
My character was Budai and the dichotomy was Excess and Contentment.

Working out the kinks and order of things, you can project images behind you and a few other effects, adding rain, lighting, and sunshine beams today.
Great for running into that perfect image spot in a new sim. No need to rez tools. This light & effects system is all wear on the avatar.
Two types of projection lighting
ability to move lighting and effect prims. This HUD is a 2 part wear system, a body prim that ejects lighting and effect tools. When off, they retract to a core root ball, so there are no invisible prims around you when not in use. I'm not too fond of invisible prim builds that cover me, limiting my ability to mod other objects I have on my avatar.
