GLOBAL CRISIS, LOCAL SOLUTIONS: HOW TO REVOLUTIONIZE AND IMPLEMENT COMMUNITY-BASED MENTAL HEALTH CARE
Globally, the ripple effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing forced migration, and a rise in human rights violations have accelerated the mental health crisis. This crisis is only expected to worsen, and providing care to those affected will become even harder. The WHO projects a deficit of 10 million health care professionals worldwide by 2030. Luckily, many communities across the globe are stepping up to the plate to increase access to care; however, this is just one of the hurdles we face. Community stigma, economic mobility, and gender are all contributing factors that must be addressed through locally sustainable treatment options. From partnerships between community stakeholders and medical professionals, to unlikely community and school interventions, it will take all of us to find solutions that ultimately lead to a healthier global community.

This farm implement was a clodbusters to level the fields to baby bottom smooth. This would be a clodhopper if it didn't have enough weight. In fact most would revel in the field smoothed with this device but frankly it mostly opened the soil for blowing to Kansas and even though the concept was to destroy the bugs in the field there has been movement to minimum tillage farming which would require much less labor and enormous fuel and soil savings. I guess this decision would be different for a family organic grower who planned on leaving the land to his heirs or a corporate famer on leased land of large acreage. This device has been lying here fallow for some time.
I resurrected this earlier shot to add to the mass of agricultural shots in the Stream. I restarted with the RAW and used a couple of slices, the second with a stop-and-a-half boost for an Alpha Channel transparency to bring detail up. It's always fun to shoot an abandoned farm but it's a bonus to find some of the old machinery remaining. There are libraries of photos hidden in the details. I will have to take the full frame Nikon back for another trek.
Here we are at the MacIntosh Farm Preservation Center outside of Longmont, Colorado. Boulder County has collected many old agricultural machines on the property that boasts two large barns.
El Jefe del Ejecutivo del Estado aseveró que la transparencia y evaluación constante de la gestión pública, así como el combate sin tregua a la corrupción, constituyen prácticas habituales y duraderas desde el primer día de esta administración, por lo que se ha brindado atención al cien por ciento de las solicitudes de acceso a la información y la realización de auditorías a programas de inversión pública, cumpliendo estrictamente la normatividad aplicable en los procesos de licitación para la asignación de obras a empresas constructoras.
•Desde que se implementó este espacio creado por la Autoridad Portuaria Nacional, los casos delincuenciales han disminuido en un 20% en la zona.
¿Sabías que el Centro de Control, Comunicaciones y Respuesta a Emergencias de la Autoridad Portuaria Nacional, entidad adscrita al Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones (MTC), brinda apoyo a las embarcaciones, a los camiones que ingresan y salen del puerto y a las instalaciones portuarias del Callao? Efectivamente, cumple esa función con el fin de que la cadena logística sea más rápida y segura.
El citado centro de control, con ayuda de un sistema de cámaras de videovigilancia, ubicadas en las vías de acceso terrestre al puerto del Callao, efectúa un monitoreo diario del flujo de vehículos que se dirigen a las instalaciones portuarias de APM Terminals y DP World para dejar o retirar carga.
Julio Cruz, encargado del citado centro de control, explicó que, gracias al trabajo que realizan, la delincuencia ha disminuido en un 20% en la zona.
“Teniendo en cuenta que a diario ingresan como mínimo tres mil camiones al puerto del Callao, se requería con carácter de urgencia que exista un control y monitoreo de la zona en las vías y en el mar. Antes, era un caos, había mucho desorden vehicular, robos y extorsiones a los camineros. Hoy, el panorama es diferente y ello ayuda a dinamizar la economía”, sostuvo.
Se monitorea la prestación de los servicios portuarios a nivel terrestre y marítimo, centralizando, procesando y analizando cualquier información que pueda afectar al Sistema Portuario Nacional en el marco del Código Internacional para la Protección de los Buques y de Instalaciones Portuarias.
Para realizar un trabajo articulado, este centro se encuentra instalado en el Comité de Inteligencia Portuaria, conformado por la Dirección Nacional Antidrogas (Dirandro), la Dirección de Investigación Criminal (Dirincri), la Dirección Contra el Terrorismo (Dircote) y la Dirección de Policía Fiscal (Dirpolfis), así como el Programa Global de Control de Contenedores, quienes se encargan del perfilamiento de contenedores de exportación para identificar casos de narcotráfico y contrabando.
Trabajo articulado
Cabe anotar que, en junio pasado, con el fin de brindar seguridad a las instalaciones portuarias, a las vías y a las unidades de transporte de carga, el MTC y la Policía Nacional del Perú (PNP) firmaron un convenio para la prestación del servicio policial en los alrededores de los terminales chalacos.
Los transportistas de carga que acceden al puerto del Callao requerían contar con una mayor protección policial para reducir los actos delictivos en la zona y mantener la fluidez del ingreso y salida en el puerto a fin de entregar sus cargas a tiempo. Para ellos se dispuso el resguardo de 42 efectivos policiales, quienes se distribuyen en tres turnos las 24 horas del día y se ubican en puntos estratégicos.

Of course as the Chair of the Union, Zimbabwe led from the front”. She thanks the Mekelle authorities for hosting the AU Ministerial retreat and wished the Ministers fruitful deliberation.

Minister Mumbengegwi stressed that “as we continue streamlining and improving the working methods of our Union, we also need to consider how best we can align our bi-annual Summits in order to improve the effectiveness of our organisation and to give ourselves ample time to implement our decisions”. He expressed satisfaction to the fact that notable success has already been achieved in this vein, hence the need to proffering new and innovative ideas that will take the organisation to greater heights.

My response to www.flickr.com/photos/factoryjoe/3244608669/
I tried to follow the example, but typeset it differently, put more emphasis on the page being used by people new to the standard, who want to adhere to it. I am pretty sure I messed up the Object definition and hope Jyri will chime in to help.
On the right are metrics, which I am sure I will get yelled at for, but I have a feeling that companies and "white hat" marketing firms will be *very* interested in verb usage data. There is no reason that DiSo as a non-profit, or activitystrea.ms as a commercial enterprise, cannot make a little money in return for all their hard work.
Snapshot uses implementor cloud ( instead of "popular implementations" ) to give thanks to the containers that have shown support for the DiSo standard. Cloud's text is weighted by sheer volume and encourages competition.

USDA Under Secretary for Natural Resources and Environment Dr. Homer Wilkes, U.S. Senator Cory Booker and White House Senior Advisor for Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation John Podesta announced historic funding through President Biden’s Investing in America agenda to expand access to urban nature, combat the climate crisis, and advance environmental justice, after meeting with local and state stake holders, April 12, 2023, in Newark, New Jersey.
The funding announced today is part of a $1.5 billion investment in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service Urban and Community Forestry Program from President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act. The grant funding is available to community-based organizations, tribes, municipal and state governments, nonprofit partners, universities, and other eligible entities as they work to increase tree cover in urban spaces and boost equitable access to nature while bolstering resilience to extreme heat, storm-induced flooding, and other climate impacts. This historic level of investment will enable the Forest Service to support projects to improve public health, increase access to nature, and deliver real economic and ecological benefits to cities, towns and tribal communities across the country.
