The Tibetan Women’s Advanced Leadership Training organized by the Tibetan Women’s Association (TWA) kick started with a opening ceremony held at the House of Peace and Dialogue, Upper TCV School and was attended by dignitaries from the exile Tibetan Community.
Statistics say the Central Tibetan Administration is comprised of a 46% female and 54% male workforce, but this does not demonstrate the true situation. There is a shocking discrepancy of a low 3% of women at top level positions, in stark contrast to the 97% of males at high level positions. The same picture also fits in many other frames of Tibetan exile Diaspora.
The Tibetan Women’s Advanced Leadership Training (June 7 to June 17), an undertaking of the Tibetan Women’s Association, seeks to not only address this issue, but to tackle it by enabling women’s representation in the higher realms of representation and ranks of governance. Thirty professional and high potential Tibetan women leaders from all over India participated in this 11-day training, which is the first of its kind. Additionally, this training accentuated the implementation of the Kashag’s eight point policy on women’s empowerment launched in October 2010. It also provided a niche platform and a creative forum for potential women leaders to identity and hone their leadership skills.

The Rothman House is significant at the local level for listing in the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion C in the area of Architecture. The building is a significant example of Mid-Century Modern architecture. The residence embodies a radical modification of common residential planning and design in transforming the traditional simple exterior and interior plans into a dramatic series of hexagons, while retaining emphasis on open planning and the extensive use of glass and attenuated wall features to make buildings appear lighter, blurring the distinction between the interior and exterior. The design borrows from Frank Lloyd Wright's concept of the Hexagonal Usonian house type and is also inspired by the open plan and extensive use of glass walls and partitions employed by the leading architects of Florida's Sarasota School of Architecture. St. Petersburg architect Martin P. Fishback, Jr. made use of large expanses of glass, and a dramatic use of the merging of inside and outside spaces through the use of an open plan in a building composed of two wings connected by a transition bridge. Fishback expanded on Wright's use of the hexagon as the construction module by employing it for the shape of major rooms partly encased in glass walls. Fishback also varied the floor level of the dining and living rooms in the one-story house to further blur the distinction between the exterior and interior spaces.

Netherlands pavilion at the EXPO 2000 in Hannover, Germany - MVRDV architects
Renovation and transformation started in 2022 and it will be integrated in a surrounding housing complex.
Expo 2000 was the first World Expo in Germany and was held from June 1 to October 31, 2000 at the fairgrounds of Hanover under the motto of Man, nature and technology - home of a new world. The goals: to achieve an exhibition with visions for the future and models for the balance between man, nature and technology, and provide solutions for the coexistence of more than 6 billion people on our planet. The protagonists in Hannover were renewable resources, the culture of recycling and progress respectful of nature. Holland is a country with high population density. It is the best example of how a country has to shape its environment to fit their needs. Again and again had to win ground to the sea. You'll find plenty of space not only increasing the country along but vertically. The latter idea is displayed in the pavilion stacked to the different landscapes. It provides a public space on several levels, and an additional space on ground floor for the visibility and accessibility, for the unexpected. The idea of the pavilion was characterized by the superimposition of six ways of being of the landscape. From the ground floor, the "dune landscape" leading to "greenhouse landscape," space in which nature and, above all, agricultural production, showed strong union with life, even in the new high tech world. In the "pot landscape" big pots hosting the roots of trees located on the top floor, while throwing screens and digital images of light and colour messages. "Rain landscape was changing in the space devoted to water, which was turned into a screen and in support of audiovisual messages; large trunks of trees populated the" forest landscape ", while building on top of the" polder landscape "hosted large wind blades and a large green area. Ecology, congestion, population density, the relationship between natural and artificial are the issues faced by the Dutch MVRDV in the realization of the Dutch Pavilion. From a constructive, the flag emphasizes the natural-artificial, by reaching out and the overlapping of transparent and opaque materials, and technology of green areas, opening and closing outwards. The building saving energy, time, space, water and infrastructure. Create a mini ecosystem that tried to find solutions to a possible lack of light and terrain. The language of architecture was raised as a pipeline through which to raise new solutions to the problems of pollution, depletion of natural resources, congestion and liveability of our urban centres.
We found this one under a log. I picked it up to avoid injuring it when I rolled the log back into place.
Another lovely find, towards the end of a great afternoon. Many thanks from me and the dogs to Joy and Graham who are always happy to share their knowledge of the Levels.
