Thailand’s Bangkok International Airport is Expanded
The Bangkok (Don Muang) International Airport is an important crossroads for air traffic linking Europe, Africa and the Middle East to the Asian and Pacific regions. Recognizing this, the Government of Thailand has taken steps to enlarge the Airport’s capacity to handle increased passenger services. The United Nation Development Programme (UNDP) and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) are assisting Thailand in formulating and implementing the National Airport Development Plan. The project provides: training in aerodrome engineering, review of designs, technical analysis of site investigations, soil tests, runway configuration, building layout, parking aprons and refueling system. The project also provides advisory services for planned construction. A project official works with the Airport Authority of Thailand (AAT) to ensure that new facilities meet international standards and are consistent with the planned expansion.

Overcoming barriers:
Human mobility and development
Human development is about putting people at the centre of development. It is about people realizing their potential, increasing their choices and enjoying the freedom to lead lives they value. Since 1990, annual Human Development Reports have explored challenges including poverty, gender, democracy, human rights, cultural liberty, globalization, water scarcity and climate change.
Migration, both within and beyond borders, has become an increasingly prominent theme in domestic and international debates, and is the topic of the 2009 Human Development Report. This report breaks new ground in applying a human development approach to the study of migration.

Although the historic city of Famagusta existed since Hellenistic and Byzantine times, many of its architectural treasures suffered from deterioration over time.
The Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage was able to bring Famagusta at the center of their work since 2014 when conservation works to the Othello Tower started.
The support to the revitalization of the walled city of Famagusta continues with conservation works to the Martinengo Bastion, Ravelin/Land Gate, and the city-side portion of the Walls between Arsenal and Sea Gate. These are three of seven projects that, thanks to European Union funding and UNDP support, the Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage is currently carrying out in Famagusta Walled City. The other ongoing projects are conservation works to: St. Mary Church of Armenians, St Mary Church of Carmel (Carmelite), St. Anne Church, the Mescit of Tabakhane/Tanner’s Mosque (Jacobite Church). New designs are under preparation for Canbulat and for Seagate will also start soon.
These projects together form part of what the Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage refers to as “Martinengo Cluster”. Clusters are critical mass areas of monuments identified by the Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage to promote their reintegration in the topography of the walled city.
All these projects are fully funded by the European Union for a total amount of more than 4 Million Euro invested in Famagusta’s heritage so far since 2012. Working together on Famagusta gives the Technical Committee on Cultural Heritage the opportunity to develop a joint vision for the city, and UNDP fully supports these efforts, convinced that cultural heritage conservation is playing a pivotal role in bringing Cypriots together around their shared heritage.

After a tour of the Vally of the Kings, we were about to cross the Nile on a ferry back to our guest house, when I looked up and saw this - and realized it was the UNDP telecenter (community computer center), staffed by at least one UN Volunteer. So we went inside for an impromptu work-related field visit. April 2003. Read the travelogue. TACC stands for Technology Access Community Center.
