A very successful workshop for primary school teachers was held on Saturday 25 January 2014 at the European Parliament Information Office in Dublin. Teachers attended from across the country and the aim of the workshop was to exchange best practices among participating teachers. Three MEPs, Marian Harkin, Mairead McGuinness and Emer Costello, attended the event and spoke about their work. The idea behind the programme is to encourage students to get to know their European neighbours better through activities in their schools.

The Civil Society Programme took place on Wednesday 11 May and Thursday 12 May and provided an opportunity for dialogue between civil society and EBRD staff, senior management, the President and Board Directors.

The Programme also featured multi-stakeholder roundtable sessions on key strategic themes related to the role of civil society as an important actor in transition and development processes. Special features of the Civil Society Programme 2016 were discussions on:

  

•25 years of Transition - The Role of Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia

•Engaging civil society to promote transparent procurement

•EBRD’s Strategy for the Promotion of Gender Equality (2016-2020): the role of civil society

•Inclusion through skills and innovatiom

  

In addition, a panel organised by the youth organisation AIESEC looked at the role of youth in shaping the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

25 years of Transition: The Role of Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia

  

A fire-side chat with Sergei Guriev, Professor of Economics, Sciences Po (incoming EBRD Chief Economist)

  

Civil society, operating in the space between public and private sectors, has played an important role in socio-political and economic transition processes around the world, including the EBRD’s traditional countries of operations. In 25 years since the establishment of the EBRD, civil society’s contribution to transition has varied across the post-communist transition region. In some countries, the work of civil society organisations (CSOs) has contributed to more democratic political systems and more open market based economies as a ‘reputational actor’ performing a ‘watchdog’ function and as a generator of ‘social capital’ necessary to sustain the change process through the difficult early years. In other countries, the focus of CSOs has been on providing a variety of social services particularly to disadvantaged and vulnerable people negatively affected by the transition process. Many civil society actors have been operating in restrictive regulatory environments, and have relied heavily on international donor funding.

What has been civil society’s input into promoting good governance, sustainable development and economic inclusion in EBRD’s traditional region over the past few decades? What are the key lessons learned, from both its successes and failures that can be applied to other countries embarking on a transition process? What steps could be taken to increase the role of civil society in promoting positive changes in societies and economies?

The discussion looked back at the key achievements and setbacks of the civil society sector in contributing to transition since the Bank’s establishment. It also reflected upon the challenges ahead for civil society in building well-governed, sustainable and inclusive economies and societies.

Programme for the play 'The Heiress', by Ruth and Augustus Goetz, being staged by repertory company The Queen's Players at the Hippodrome and Queen's Theatre in Keighley for one week from Monday 17th September 1951.

 

Players in the company included April Andrew, Edward Ballard, Edmund Bennett, Robert Bett, Gina Bon, Rosita Cussins, Eric Evans, Peter Fox, Philip Ingram, Janet MacKenzie, Evelyn Napier, Sheila Price, Anna Richardson, Olive Simpson, and Paddy Ward. The play was produced by Philip Ingram. Linda Dale accompanied proceedings on the piano.

 

The programme also includes adverts for Fred's Ice Cream ("made in one of Yorkshire's most modern dairies"); H. Wilkinson (Murphy and Hoover dealer) of The Arcade on North Street; Edward Foulds (Motor Engineers) Ltd. of Cavendish Street; J. Scheerer & Sons (sound firm) of Leeds; C. Holmes (plumber and sanitary engineer) of Sandywood Street; Collette (smart ladies' fashion shop) of East Parade; Jack Hey (joiner and undertaker) of Albert Yard; E. Crawshaw (Keighley vac sweep service) of Manville Walk; John W. Laycock Ltd. (fireplace specialists) of North Street; Timothy Taylor's Prize Ales ("for men of the north"); Jennett and Scaife (high class dressmakers) of East Parade; A. Lord & Co. (furnishers and undertakers) of High Street; Renee (coats, suits and gowns) of South Street; and Windser Pottery of North Street.

 

The 1950s was a turbulent decade in the history of the Hippodrome and Queen's Theatre in Keighley. Long-time Managing Director Francis Laidler (who also owned the Alhambra Theatre in Bradford) died in 1955 and was succeeded by his widow Gwladys. Television was providing a significant challenge to theatre-going by the middle of the decade, and the Hippodrome had to try more extreme forms of entertainment to draw in the crowds. But to no avail, and the theatre finally closed its doors in 1956, before being demolished in 1961 to make way for the new town centre's multi-storey car park.

 

The item was donated to Keighley and District Local History Society by Tim Neal in 2022. It is held in the History Society's physical archive.

The Trade Facilitation Programme (TFP) currently includes over 100 issuing banks in the EBRD regions and more than 800 confirming banks worldwide. The event gave 150 guests the opportunity to review and discuss current market challenges with key industry specialists, regulators and representatives from the World Trade Organization, the International Chamber of Commerce HQ and the local, national International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) committees industry. It also featured the highly popular annual award ceremony for ‘The Most Active EBRD TFP Banks’ and ‘Deal of the Year’, co-hosted with the “Financial Times Special Editions”.

ETHIOPIA: On 22 July, women and their children participate in a community-based outpatient therapeutic feeding programme at the health post in Belina Arba Village in drought-affected Fedis District, in East Hararghe Zone in Oromiya Region. Two health extension workers are setting up a table near the building, in preparation for the weekly programme. The UNICEF-supported programme provides medicines and nutrition supplements, nutrition screenings and counselling and growth-monitoring, in addition to therapeutic food for malnourished children. It also supports training for health extension workers. Forty-one severely malnourished children are being treated at the health post this month, more than triple the number of children treated at this same time last year.

At end July 2011, the crisis in the Horn of Africa – affecting primarily Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia and Djibouti – continues, with a worsening drought, rising food prices and ongoing conflict in Somalia. More than 11 million people are threatened by the worst drought in the region in 60 years. In affected areas, over 500,000 severely malnourished children are at risk of dying; while a further 1.6 million moderately malnourished children, and the wider-affected population, are at high risk of disease. In Ethiopia, high levels of child malnutrition in affected districts are jeopardizing recent child-survival gains. The Government estimates that more than 159,200 children under age five are at risk of severe acute malnutrition. Refugees from Somalia – which is facing one of the world’s most-severe food security crises – are also entering Ethiopia, with an estimated 1,100 Somali children arriving every day. A recent nutrition survey in a camp for Somali refugees revealed that 47 per cent of newly arrived children were acutely malnourished. UNICEF, together with the Government, UN, NGO and community partners, is supporting a range of interventions and essential services, especially for internally displaced Ethiopians and for Somali refugees, including feeding programmes, immunization campaigns, health outreach, and access to safe water and to improve sanitation. UNICEF now requires US $300 million for humanitarian assistance for vulnerable children, women and families in the Horn of Africa region.
