Sustainability is at the heart of FAO’s Strategic Framework. It is embedded in all five strategic objectives and is the specific focus of Strategic Objective 2 (SO2), which aims at sustainably increasing the provision of goods and services from agriculture, forestry and fisheries. To achieve SO2, and successfully support member countries in their efforts toward achieving sustainable food and agriculture, a common understanding of what agricultural sustainability means is necessary.

Chair, upholstered chair and table. A wood skeleton which allows different applications as regards chair and table, enabling the products to be costumized and adapted to any designs. The framework, in software production, is a support structure on which software can be organised and designed. In the same way the Framework chair is formed by a support structure in massive beech wood on which various types of designs, materials and upholstery can be adapted.
Sedia, sedia imbottita e tavolo. Uno scheletro in legno che permette diverse applicazioni per quanto rigurada il tavolo e le sedute, permettendo di personalizzare i prodotti ed adattarli a qualunque progetto. Il Framework, nella produzione di software, è una struttura di supporto su cui un software può essere organizzato e progettato. Allo stesso modo la sedia è formata da una struttura di supporto in faggio massiccio sulla quale si possono adattare diverse tipologie di disegni, materiali e rivestimenti.
The South Sudan National Police Service (SSNPS) completed the tenth sensitization workshop on the operational delivery of the Confidence and Trust Building Policing Strategy (CTBPS). The course was supported by UNMISS Police, Human Rights Department and Child Protection Units.
CTBPS was developed by the former SSNPS IGP (Inspector General of Police) Pieng Deng Kuol following the crisis of December 2013, to provide a conceptual framework for rebuilding confidence and trust between the SSNPS and the people of South Sudan. It is in the main but not exclusively aimed at those IDPs sheltering at the UNMISS Protection-of-Civilians (PoC) sites. The strategy also aims to create an improved security environment that makes it possible for the safe return of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) to their former areas of residence
To contribute to the strategy, UNMISS Police assist in sensitizing SSNPS officers in key areas, mainly Human Rights, International Humanitarian Law, Community Policing and Sexual and Gender based Violence, and support the SSNPS Emergency Call Centre (ECC) and quick response team known as “777”. UNPOL also participates in the coordination of the Police Development Committee and supports the UNDP ID card project by providing IT experts to operate the SSNPS Personnel Database.
In support of the SSNPS CTBPS, three police posts, located in Khor William and Gudele areas, were built using funding from UNMISS Quick Impact Projects (QIP). These areas have been identified under the strategy as being areas where IDPs originally fled their homes.
During two-week workshop, thirty-four specially selected officers participated in lectures and practical activities aimed at providing course delegates with skills and knowledge on how win back the trust of the public and increase the security of the communities.
Between January and April this year, the SSNPS have trained three hundred officers in seven sessions, while 104 officers underwent similar training in May-June 2015. The course participants will be performing their duties in Khor William and Gudele areas.
“We are here to support you, we are here to make things chance, we are here to see you changing,” said the UNPOL Chief of Operations, Mr. Emmanuel Butera, addressing the participants during the closing ceremony and assured them that UNMISS would continue support and facilitate such courses.
“Go out there and chance the environment, go out there and serve the people (of South Sudan), go out there and be trusted by your communities and be confident in whatever you are doing,” he continued.
Mr. Butera also urged the course delegates to immediately implement in practice the knowledge gained during the training, “What you have captured here should be useful not only to you but to the people you are serving.”
“When you are putting this uniform on, the communities should look at you as at the problem solvers. You should always be loyal to your leadership, to your nation, to your people,” he finished his speech.
“As we all know, we are still a new country. We need our friends so that we can all go together to give good services to the people who are in need,” said the Assistant IGP for General Directorate of Training, Lieutenant General Joseph Lado and thanked UNMISS for the continued support.
Mr. Lado also touched upon the selection of the candidates and stressed the significance of the fact that female police officers were very well represented and made up almost half of the participants.
“I urge you to start making the change in our police work, you have already got the necessary knowledge for that. We (the SSNPS leadership) want you to make use of this knowledge for the benefit of people of South Sudan,” he added.

Where do the design frameworks we use and promote in permaculture come from? Permaculture is a magpie discipline taking useful material from many places and often forgetting where it took it from along the way – what can we collectively re-member? What are the histories of SADIMET, OBRDIMET and others – and might knowing those histories inform our use of them now?

Schmidt's Woods is a hidden treasure just around the corner from Mill Creek Point of the Meadowlands region of New Jersey (read below). Here, especially during migration season, many wonderful sightings can be gained by quietly walking the short trail into the woods, but one can also appreciate the subtle beauty of the low, ground level wildflowers that accentuate the landscape.
The fabulous 1,500 foot long, Secaucus Greenway is an award winning, raised boardwalk, which provides visitors with a variety of great views: area wetlands, NYC skyline, the Meadowlands Sports Complex, the Hackensack River, and spectacular sunsets. Like the majority of the wetlands here in North Jersey, the vast variety of wildlife and plants add to the appeal. Those sunset and twilight views from the boardwalk are always special treats, with wonderful backdrops and/or foregrounds. One never knows exactly what to expect when standing at the Point or strolling down the boardwalk. Barring any poor weather conditions, the magical sunset hour never ceases to touch the heart, and as an avid photographer, endless opportunities present themselves for creative images—adjusting light parameters, where to focus the gist of the framework, angles, inclusions and exclusions, etc., etc.
The National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) has undertaken modelling to perform comprehensive spatial analysis and mapping of human pressures throughout the Mediterranean Basin. This work builds on a previous global analysis of cumulative human impacts (Halpern et al. 2008), including additional information to better reflect the specific pressures and ecosystems of the Mediterranean Sea and coasts. A total of 22 spatial datasets of human activities and stressors and 19 ecosystem types were assembled and used in the analyses and maps (NCEAS 2008). The analysis concluded that pressures that exert the greatest impacts on Mediterranean marine ecosystems are climate change, demersal fishing, ship traffic, and, in coastal areas, run-off from land and invasive non-indigenous species. The lowest estimated impacts are associated with oil spills and oil rigs, due to a combination of the limited spatial extent of these pressures and their overlap with habitats with relatively low vulnerability to these potential threats. The analysis shows distinct spatial patterns in the distribution of cumulative human impacts.

The ability to direct the assembly of hexagonal building units offers great prospective to construct the awaited and looked-for hypothetical polybenzene (pbz) or “cubic graphite” structure, described 70 years ago. Here, we demonstrate the successful use of reticular chemistry as an appropriate strategy for the design and deliberate construction of a zirconium-based metal–organic framework (MOF) with the intricate pbz underlying net topology. The judicious selection of the perquisite hexagonal building units, six connected organic and inorganic building blocks, allowed the formation of the pbz-MOF-1, the first example of a Zr(IV)-based MOF with pbz topology. Prominently, pbz-MOF-1 is highly porous, with associated pore size and pore volume of 13 Å and 0.99 cm3 g–1, respectively, and offers high gravimetric and volumetric methane storage capacities (0.23 g g–1 and 210.4 cm3 (STP) cm–3 at 80 bar). Notably, the pbz-MOF-1 pore system permits the attainment of one of the highest CH4 adsorbed phase density enhancements at high pressures (0.15 and 0.21 g cm–3 at 35 and 65 bar, respectively) as compared to benchmark microporous MOFs.
