Diversified livelihoods such as beekeeping can help improve the income of rural communities. Apart from producing honey to sell to market, beekeeping helps promote conservation of the natural environment, which many poor communities depend on for food and energy
UNDPâs Climate Change Adaptation Project (CCAP) is committed to helping vulnerable rural families increase their incomes.
As part of the livelihood component, the project provided four beehives, beekeeping tools and jars for honey, including a 12-day training that gave beneficiaries the necessary skills to maintain their beekeeping business.

Text story:
_________
For Karima, one of the happiest moments of her life was when she earned her first thousand Afghani (US$ 15), when she sold a kilo of honey made from her own bee-keeping business. It may seem like a small amount, but for Karima, it was life changing!
Karima is a housewife and a mother of four. Her husband could barely feed the family from the work he could get, so Karimaâs contribution to the household income was significant.
She has seen a lot in her life. She still remembers the agony and frustration when they had no money and their son was sick. As tears well in her eyes, she relates, âWe were not able to buy him medicine. We couldnât do anything but cry and wait for him to either die or recover by himself.â
Her husband, Khalil, who was very fond of honey, tried his hand at beekeeping before, but because he didnât know how to maintain his beehives, his bees all died.
But, Karima and Khalil did not give up. They decided to seek help from the Directorate of Agriculture in Herat city.
UNDPâs Climate Change Adaptation Project (CCAP) is committed to helping vulnerable rural families increase their incomes.
As part of the livelihood component, the project provided four beehives, beekeeping tools and jars for honey, and, crucially, a 12-day training that gave beneficiaries the necessary skills to maintain their beekeeping business. Karima, who lives in in Qala Safid village in Herat province, was one of the recipients.
âWe learned many things about the bee keeping,â says Karima, âlike feeding times, honey extraction and reproduction of honey bees - things I never knew before.â She adds, âI once used lemon to bring back unconscious bees back to normal.â
Now, equipped with the knowledge and materials, Karima and Khalil expanded their apiary from just four to ten beehives, and they plan to increase the number to 13 in the next year. With the business growing, they are now making 80 to 90 thousand Afghanis each year by selling their honey.
âMy bees are our breadwinners now!â Karima says, looking at her queen bee proudly. âI feel like the queen is representing me and looking after the honey factory!â
Beekeeping requires less inputs for production compared to other agricultural activities and livelihoods. It requires less land, water and labor to generate high levels of income.
With low initial support, beekeepers can get an immediate high income. Thatâs why beekeeping has the potential to transform thousands of lives here in Herat province.
âBy the grace of God, we have a reliable income now and can buy what we need, including medicines or treatment,â says Karima.
Beekeeping in rural areas, where the communities have limited resources such as land and water, can help boost incomes for families like Karimaâs. In addition, beekeeping helps boost food security, and assists crop production through pollination. Almonds, apples, blueberries, cantaloupes, cherries, cranberries, cucumbers, sunflowers, watermelon and many other crops all rely on honey bees for pollination. Diversified livelihoods such as bee increasingly improve the income of rural communities consequently people can adapt and manage climate change risks.
So, thanks to her new beekeeping skills, Karima and Khalil truly have a reason to âbeeâ cheerful!

We were at the roof of our launch, enjoying the surroundings during the trip from Voirab to Baniachong at dawn. Suddenly we saw this Buffalo group possibly returning home after whole day of exploration. This photograph might not be good in quality (due to bad lighting, long distance and our movement ) but we were really thrilled and inspired after seeing their journey alone in the flooded land.

Manifestación en Madrid a favor de la memoria histórica por las víctimas del franquismo y como apoyo al juez Garzón. Puerta del Sol . Sábado 24 de Abril de 2010 a las 20h
These are images of the rally for the victims of Franco's dictatorship in Madrid in solidarity with Justice Baltasar Garzón and for the Historical Memory. Puerta del Sol, Saturday 24 April 2010, 8pm.
Garzon, who ordered the arrest of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet in 1998 under the principle of "universal jurisdiction" which held that grave crimes committed abroad can be tried in Spain, now faces two court cases himself.
Earlier this month he was indicted for exceeding his authority by opening an investigation in 2008 into crimes committed by General Francisco Franco's regime in Spain that were covered by an amnesty.
"Fascists get out of the courts," "Universal justice," and "More judges like Garzon," cried the thousands at the rally in Madrid which drew Spanish film director Pedro Almodovar as well as other artists and celebrities, marching out from Puerta de Alcalá to Puerta del Sol.

Committed To Memory: A History of Johnstown in Objects

Portland Head Light
Portland Head has long protected Portland and the adjacent area. Cape Elizabeth residents were deeply committed to American independence from British rule. In 1776, the new Town of Cape Elizabeth posted a guard of eight soldiers at Portland Head to warn citizens of coming British attacks.
In 1787, the General Court of Massachusetts (the Massachusetts legislature) provided $750 to begin construction of a lighthouse. In 1790, when the United States Government took over the responsibility of all lighthouses, Congress appropriated $1,500 for its completion. The original tower measured 72' from base to lantern deck and was lit with 16 whale oil lamps. It was first lit on January 10, 1791.
Construction of the first Keeper's Quarters began in 1790 as the result of a contract signed by Massachusetts Governor John Hancock. A one-story dwelling built to replace the first keeper's house was erected in 1816. It measured 34' x 20' with two rooms, a cellar, and a porch in the rear.
By 1864 a 4th-order Fresnel lens and a cast iron staircase were installed.
By 1865, the tower was raised 20' and a 2nd order Fresnel lens was installed. A portion of this lens may now be seen at the Museum at Portland Head Light. Except for a period between1883 and1885, this lens was in the lighthouse until 1958.
Late on Christmas Eve in 1886, the three-masted bark Annie C. Maguire struck the ledge at Portland Head. Keeper Joshua Strout, his son, wife, and volunteers rigged an ordinary ladder as a gangplank between the shore and the ledge the ship was heeled against. Captain O'Neil, the ship's master, his wife, two mates, and the nine-man crew clambered onto the ledge and then to safety. The cause of the wreck is puzzling since visibility was not a problem. Members of the crew reported they "plainly saw Portland Light before the disaster and are unable to account for same."
The current Keepers' Quarters building was constructed in 1891 as a two-story duplex. Until 1989, it was home to the head and assistant lighthouse keepers and their families.
Portland Head Light was the responsibility of the United States Department of the Treasury from 1790 to 1852 when management was transferred to the US Lighthouse Board. The Board was reorganized into the Bureau of Lighthouses in 1910. In 1939, aids to navigation became the responsibility of the United States Coast Guard. On August 7th, 1989, Petty Officer Davis Simpson struck the US flag for the last time at the decommissioning ceremony recognizing the automation of the lighthouse. The property was leased in 1990 to the Town of Cape Elizabeth. Three years later, through the efforts of United States Senator George Mitchell, the property was deeded to the Town. The United States Coast Guard maintains the actual light and the fog signal, but the remainder of the property is managed by the Town of Cape Elizabeth.

Personally committed to economic justice and equality, and to health equality for women and families throughout Boston and the Commonwealth, she has served as CEO for 16 years, during which time Boston Community Capital has invested in child care facilities serving nearly 10,000 children and health care facilities providing care to over 66,000 patients.
Jennifer Keesmaat is committed to creating places where people flourish. Having poured her coherent, comprehensive, and collaborative approach into cities throughout North America – and doing the same in her role as the Chief Planner for the City of Toronto – Keesmaat speaks with passion on her belief that now is the time to engage in city building and take ownership of our shared future.
Over the past decade Keesmaat has worked in municipalities across Canada – including Moncton, Halifax, Mississauga, Peterborough, London, Winnipeg, Regina, Saskatoon, and Vancouver – on the development of site plans, urban design guidelines, official plan reviews, corridor studies, culture plans, secondary plans and university campus master plans. Her planning practice is characterized by an emphasis on collaborations across sectors, and broad engagement with municipal staff, councils, developers, business leaders, NGO’s and residents associations.
