Michael Masutha, officiated the symbolic burial of three late members of Umkhonto Wesizwe (MK), Selby Mavuso, Sizwe Kondile and Johannes Sambo, at Freedom Park, Pretoria on Friday, 01 July 2016.
The symbolic reburial at Freedom Park was preceded by a ceremonial repatriation of the late MK members’ spirits. The ceremonial repatriation was led by their families and facilitated by the Department from the spot where the three MK members were killed on Thursday, 30 June 2016 at Lebombo Border Post, Komatipoort.
Selby Mavuso, Sizwe Kondile and Johannes Sambo were killed by members of the apartheid era Vlakplaas Unit during the late eighties. The Missing Persons Task Team has confirmed that their remains are not recoverable due to the manner in which they were disposed of after being killed.

Hydro-management canals built by the Climate Change Adaptation Project (CCAP) of UNDP, implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture. These canals keep flooding under control, and save water.
Imagine, then, that you are a farmer, and you have seen your land, previously fertile, become dry and arid. As the crops fail, and the ground becomes dusty and hard, the local people start to despair, and then they leave, one by one, so that the very future of the community is threatened.
This was the situation for Attaullah, 60, a father and elder of his community in Safar Khan village in Herat Province.
“Back then, there was no canal or water management system. Every year, flooding would destroy our lands, and the land would just dry up when the water left.”
Without water, there is no life. When Attaullah’s land dried up for lack of water, the locals began to leave the area. The outlook was grim.
Today, however, the situation has improved remarkably.
“Now, we have about 100 hectares of land,” says Attaullah cheerfully. “We grow wheat, and various kinds of vegetables.”
The reason for this remarkable turnaround? Four hydro-management canals built by the Climate Change Adaptation Project (CCAP) of UNDP, implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture. The canals keep flooding under control, and save water.
“We used to collect about 224 tons wheat each year, but the harvest has doubled since the canal was built.” Said Attaullah.
The construction of the canals completely changed the economic situation of the 400 beneficiary families in Safar Khan and four other nearby villages, dramatically increased their income, and paved the way for the people to get back to farming.
All life on Earth depends on water. For those who grow crops to live, however, it is especially important. After decades of war, Afghanistan’s economy, and the lives of many of its people depend on agriculture. In the countryside, agriculture, irrigation, and production support the basis of rural life.

This is another one of those artifacts where I wanted to grab anyone around me and shake them while pointing frantically at this. I cannot believe this has come down to us from nearly 4,000 years ago. Artifacts like this make me feel so close to the humanity of the people from the era. Again, I feel as if the artist this belonged to had only gone away for a break and would be back at any moment to pick back up his work.

Kavalcare Solar System for Jhpiego Mid-Wife Clinic Dec8, 2014
Every year, 12,000 women in Pakistan die of birth complications. The Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (MNCH) Services Component, implemented by MCHIP/Jhpiego, aims at preventing maternal, newborn, and child deaths by ensuring skilled birth attendance (SBA) through a total market approach, empowered community, timely referral of obstetric and neonatal complications to an emergency obstetric and newborn care (EmONC) facility, and improved access to child care.
Lack of electricity in remote areas is a major issue that often leads to obstetric complications and newborn deaths. Refrigerated storage is vital for the effectiveness of life saving drugs and vaccines. Ice boxes are used in remot areas of this purpose but it is an ineffective method especially when easy availability of ice is a problem. To overcome these issues, Lodhie Foundation in association with Maternal and Child Health Integrated Program/JHPIEGO, extended its Kavalcare program and provided a Solar Powered System to a remote clinic located at village Haji Usman Jhakro near Makli, District Thatta. System provides sufficient power to operate a small refrigerator, a fan and 3 lamps 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. It was designed, manufactured and installed by Shaan Technologies private Limited Karachi. After installation of Solar System in August 2014, this small remote clinic is serving a community of 10,000 plus persons who lives in village Haji Usman and surrounding areas. On an average 10 patients visits this clinic each day. Clinic also provides up to 15 birth attendance and new born care in a month.

A government that works for everyone - Oliver Dowden CBE MP, Parliamentary Secretary and Minister for Implementation
El presidente de la República, Iván Duque Márquez, y el ministro de Ambiente y Desarrollo Sostenible, Carlos Eduardo Correa, anunciaron hoy, en el Día Mundial del Medio Ambiente, el lanzamiento del proyecto GEF Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta, con el que se mejorará la conservación de la biodiversidad de este ecosistema y se protegerá la vegetación natural al garantizar un adecuado uso del suelo y caudal del agua.
El aporte será de nueve millones de dólares y el proyecto tendrá un plazo de ejecución de cinco años. La agencia implementadora será el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID), y la ejecutora, el Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras (Invemar).
El Fondo Mundial para el Medio Ambiente (GEF, por sus siglas en inglés), apoya diferentes iniciativas y proyectos relacionados con el cambio climático, la degradación del suelo, la diversidad biológica y otras temáticas derivadas del medio ambiente, permitiendo a diferentes países obtener recursos a nivel mundial para la implementación de estas ideas.
Parte de este proyecto de la Ciénaga se hará con el vivero de Parques Nacionales Naturales de Colombia, que tiene una capacidad de 70 mil plántulas de mangle negro, rojo y amarillo.
La Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta alberga gran variedad de especies, principalmente en términos de aves y vida silvestre, preservadas en las áreas protegidas nacionales que forman parte del complejo de humedales. Es reconocida por la alta productividad de los esteros que mantienen ecosistemas de manglares, los cuales brindan lugares de anidación para las aves y áreas de desove para los peces.
Varios de los objetivos del proyecto que busca la recuperación integral de este importante humedal son, entre otros, promover la adopción de prácticas sostenibles en los sistemas agrícolas con enfoque en la conservación y el uso eficiente del agua, preservar los bosques y mejorar su conectividad entre la parte alta y baja (estuarios).
“Es un deber moral”: Iván Duque
“Gracias a recursos del GEF, vamos a tener nueve millones de dólares que serán complementados con nueve millones de dólares de Colombia, para recuperar cerca de 25.000 hectáreas de parques naturales. Los niños que hoy nos acompañan están sembrando mangles, una especie que es vital para la protección ambiental, para la captura de CO2, pero sobre todo, para restaurar nuestro patrimonio biodiverso. Algo que queremos destacar es lo que estamos viendo hoy, niños y jóvenes líderes, que entienden que en la ética que ellos tienen en el siglo XXI, proteger estos ecosistemas es un deber moral”, dijo el presidente de Colombia, Iván Duque.
El mandatario agregó: “En esta celebración del Día Mundial del Medio Ambiente, cada uno de nosotros entiende el valor de la lucha contra el cambio climático. Eso implica que nosotros podamos sembrar masivamente árboles en nuestro país. Iniciamos una primera gesta para tener 180 millones de árboles sembrados para agosto del año 2022. Este año lo terminaremos con 125 millones de árboles sembrados”.
Señal de compromiso
“Serán 110 kilómetros de recuperación de canales en la Ciénaga Grande, alrededor de unos 500 contratos de conservación natural de la mano con las comunidades. Este proyecto, además de la conservación y la restauración, ayudará a la reactivación económica a través del trabajo que se puede generar en estas comunidades”, expresó Carlos Eduardo Correa, ministro de Ambiente y Desarrollo Sostenible.
Correa dijo que con este proyecto también se están recuperando, restaurando y conservando más de 24.500 hectáreas de esta zona de la Ciénaga. “Es un gran proyecto de impacto regional, de impacto nacional. Esto es, en el Día Mundial del Medio Ambiente, una gran señal de compromiso de todos los colombianos y de este gobierno con nuestro planeta”, manifestó.
Dinámica hidrológica, fundamental
La salud del ecosistema de la Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta depende de la dinámica hidrológica y, desafortunadamente, la biodiversidad se ve amenazada porque el agua es captada por los agricultores y la agroindustria antes de llegar a la Ciénaga, por lo que la calidad del recurso hídrico es baja. De ahí que se esté trabajando en el fortalecimiento de la gobernanza ambiental de los recursos naturales, en un mejor sistema de distribución y uso del agua y en la adopción de prácticas agrícolas sostenibles.
Por lo anterior, el proyecto GEF Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta pretende implementar medidas de conservación y restauración para bosques montanos y ribereños, mejorar las capacidades de las instituciones públicas y privadas que gobiernan y administran los activos biológicos e hidrológicos de la Ciénaga, diseñar un modelo de sostenibilidad financiera para la gobernanza y continuar con la restauración de manglares y canales naturales, además de lograr convenios de manejo y conservación de la cuenca de los ríos Fundación y Aracataca, suscritos por las comunidades, sectores productivos claves y actores institucionales.
Isla Salamanca
En la tarde, el presidente Duque, el ministro Correa y su comitiva visitaron el Vía Parque Isla Salamanca, en donde hicieron una siembra simbólica de mangle amarillo con jóvenes que tienen proyectos ecoturísticos de almejas (primer grupo de manglares que hace parte de la restauración del GEF), con el propósito de recuperar el caño de manglar Clarín Viejo. Los acompañaron Sergio Diazgranados, representante del BID para Perú y Colombia; el capitán Francisco Arias, director de Invemar, y Patricia Saldaña, directora del Parque.
En esta reserva ecológica se han presentado incendios forestales durante la temporada de menos lluvias. La gente quema para caza de especies, invasión de tierras, extracción de carbón vegetal y practica el leñateo. Gracias a la labor que viene haciendo la Fuerza Aérea Cacom 3 se han podido controlar las conflagraciones. En el Caribe, Isla Salamanca es el parque natural con la meta de siembra más alta a 2022: 185.000 árboles en 300 hectáreas. / Jun. 05, 2021.

•Cultura CTI se denomina la iniciativa que implementa actividades como reciclaje, robótica y astronomía directo en la sala de clases. Profesores trabajan codo a codo con investigadores y, los niños, experimentan con ciencia y tecnología en primera persona y que tuvo su lanzamiento en la ciudad de Coquimbo.
Imprimir toda clase de objetos en 3D; armar sus propios robots utilizando kits y experimentar con genética, todo esto realizado por niños, niñas y jóvenes en la sala de clases. Desde el próximo 27 de septiembre, un total de 24 colegios de la Región de Coquimbo se incorporarán a una iniciativa inédita para la enseñanza de la ciencia en el país. Como parte de un programa implementado de manera conjunta entre profesores y científicos, establecimientos educacionales públicos de las comunas de Andacollo y Coquimbo, podrán acceder a actividades como estas, en sus propias escuelas.
La iniciativa, denominada “Cultura CTI”, busca acercar estos contenidos a los estudiantes bajo metodologías participativas, donde la clave es conseguir que el alumno sea protagonista en su proceso de aprendizaje. Para ello, cada colegio tuvo que escoger proyectos del Catálogo de Iniciativas de Cultura CTI, conformado por 32 propuestas desarrolladas por expertos de universidades y destacados centros de investigación, las cuales fueron evaluadas previamente por un panel de expertos.
El lanzamiento de la iniciativa se realizó ayer en el Colegio José Agustín Alfaro, Tierras Blancas, de Coquimbo, reuniendo autoridades de la Comisión Nacional de Investigación Científica y Tecnológica, CONICYT; del Programa de divulgación de la Ciencia, Explora, la Seremía de Educación de la Región de Coquimbo, profesores y oferentes de Cultura CTI y la comunidad de docentes y alunmos del Colegio.
“Estamos iniciando un trabajo en conjunto con quienes tienen la mirada de la ciencia y la tecnología- académicos universitarios, integrantes de centros de investigación- que hacen una oferta participativa de contenido; y, del otro lado, los profesores, que trabajan, día a día, en enseñar y motivar a nuestros niños. El objetivo final de esto, en términos país, es mejorar la calidad de la educación. No se trata de que todos los estudiantes sean científicos, sino que ojalá desarrollemos el pensamiento crítico. Creemos que este programa tiene las virtudes de trabajar en pos de ese objetivo, integrando a toda la comunidad educativa”, destacó el director ejecutivo de CONICYT, Christian Nicolai.
En tanto, el seremi de educación de la Región de Coquimbo, Pedro Esparza, comentó “estamos llevando adelante un conjunto de trasformaciones de nuestro sistema educativo, que nos permiten instalar la educación como un derecho social. Hoy relevamos Cultura CTI y cómo estamos innovando, efectivamente, en la enseñanza de las ciencias. Lo más importante es entender que, la ciencia y la tecnología hay que vivenciarlas. No basta el pizarrón, no basta la clase formal, hay que generar una experiencia. La enseñanza de la ciencia no tiene que ser sólo para el niño aplicado y buen alumno, sino que para todos ”.
Implementada por CONICYT a través de su Programa Explora y el Consejo Nacional de Innovación para el Desarrollo (CNID), Cultura CTI se llevó a cabo durante todo 2016 como programa piloto en tres escuelas públicas en la comuna de San Joaquín y nueve de la Región de los Ríos, donde continúan ejecutándose con excelentes resultados. Ahora, las escuelas de Coquimbo y Andacollo se suman escogiendo 20 iniciativas que apuntan a temáticas como reciclaje, biología, astronomía, robótica y ciencias naturales.
Tras este proceso de selección -en el que participaron representantes de toda la comunidad educativa-, comenzará a ejecutarse un proceso de codiseño, donde maestros y científicos tendrán la misión de mejorar la propuesta, ajustándola a la realidad de cada grupo escolar. Esta importante etapa se iniciará el próximo miércoles 27 de septiembre, en una reunión colectiva, donde asistirán los integrantes de las 24 escuelas y los artífices de los proyectos CTI escogidos.
“Para mí, que soy profesora de la Región de Coquimbo, es muy importante y enriquecedor participar de este proceso, porque nos da la posibilidad de insertarnos en la Cultura CTI. Queremos que en mi escuela, no sólo los profesores de ciencias naturales, se empapen del método científico y puedan innovar en sus prácticas pedagógicas. De verdad ésta es una experiencia fantástica, sobre todo, porque permite a los alumnos de nuestro colegio- que aunque es de alta vulnerabilidad, ha desarrollado un fuerte trabajo en CyT- abrir su mente y enfrentarse a nuevas experiencias. Finalmente, todo esto, beneficia a nuestros niños”, comentó Isela Maureira, profesora de Ciencias Naturales del Colegio José Agustín Alfaro, Tierras Blancas, Coquimbo.
Esta primera reunión de Cultura CTI Coquimbo representa, además, una de las primeras acciones que se inscriben del proyecto de Nueva Educación Pública, que comienza a ser implementado por el Ministerio de Educación en 14 comunas y 237 establecimientos educacionales del país, alcanzado en total a más de 57 mil estudiantes del país. Se busca crear un nuevo sistema de educación pública, que mejore la calidad de la enseñanza y potencie, entre otros aspectos, trabajos en red como los que propone Cultura CTI.

All parts were disassembled and cleaned with mineral spirits. Wood elements were given a light rubbing with tung oil, and then waxed. Cast iron and steel parts were rubbed with 3-in-1 oil, with most built up grease and natural patina left intact.

El Ministro de Transportes y Comunicaciones, José Gallardo Ku, recibió del Gobierno del Japón equipos destinados a implementar un sistema de prevención de desastres que permitirá a la población recibir información rápida, precisa y estable sobre emergencias.
El sistema -que utilizará el estándar de Televisión Digital Terrestre japonés brasileño ISDB-T, que viene siendo implementado en el Perú- podría utilizarse en caso de que el Fenómeno El Niño afecte a alguna de las localidades beneficiadas.
El "Proyecto para el Mejoramiento del equipamiento para la Gestión del Riesgo de Desastres en la República del Perú" comprende la donación e implementación de ocho sistemas de observación de mareas; ocho sistemas EWBS (Emergency Warning Broadcasting System), conformados por estaciones de televisión digital terrestre-TDT con capacidad para transmitir la señal EWBS; y 15 receptores de TDT con capacidad de recibir esa señal.
El Instituto Nacional de Defensa Civil (INDECI) es el responsable de emitir señal la alerta, la cual llega al Instituto Nacional de Radio y Televisión (IRTP), que la difunde a los hogares de la población de las localidades beneficiarias, utilizando el sistema EWBS (a través de la señal de televisión digital).
Las estaciones de TDT con EWBS -que estarán ubicadas en Arequipa (Arequipa, 1; Camaná, 3), Ica (Pisco, 1), La Libertad (Trujillo, 4), Lima (Lima, 1; Cañete, 1), Moquegua (Ilo, 4)- no solo podrán transmitir alertas por tsunami, sino también sobre diversos tipos de desastres, como inundaciones, deslizamientos, incendios, entre otros.
Actualmente en el Perú la información de desastres se tramite vía telefónica, radial o por email, siendo alta la probabilidad de interrupción en la comunicación cuando ocurre un desastre de gran magnitud.
"La introducción de este nuevo Sistema EWBS hará posible que la población reciba información más rápida, precisa y estable sobre emergencias por desastres, lo que contribuirá a salvar vidas y reducir daños", señaló Gallardo Ku.
El Ministro Gallardo y el Viceministro de Comunicaciones del Japón, Yasuo Sakamoto, destacaron la importancia del fortalecimiento de la cooperación entre ambos países en el campo de la televisión digital, así como ampliar la relación de cooperación en el sector de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC).
La entrega de equipos se realizó en el marco de la inauguración del Seminario Internacional en materia de Televisión Digital Terrestre (TDT) y Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicaciones (TIC), que se realizará los días 14 y 15 de enero de 2016 en Lima y en el que participarán delegados de 15 empresas japonesas.
