"Take a Chance"
Stability is good...but boring. Take a chance and explore what's in the unknown....it may surprise you!
Kut, Iraq, 28th July 2019 – At a three-day workshop from 25th to 27th July 2019, in the city of Kut in Wasit Governorate, a group of 27 young Iraqi women and men from across the Governorate discussed how youth can play a role in addressing the challenges facing their communities. This was the sixth in a series of workshops under the theme “Iraqi Youth: Pioneers for Dialogue and Stability”, which are taking place across Iraq throughout 2019, organised by the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI), in cooperation with the Committee for Coexistence and Societal Peace in the Prime Minister’s Office and the Iraqi Al-Amal Association.
During the workshop, the group discussed a number of challenges identified as important by youth in Wasit. These included social cohesion and peaceful coexistence; youth unemployment and job opportunities; women’s empowerment and protection of vulnerable women; improvement of health services in the Governorate; and strengthening the social responsibility and accountability of oil companies operating in Wasit.
On the third and final day, an interactive session was held with the representative of the Governor of Wasit and a number of local politicians, in which the issues identified by the youth were discussed.
Mr. Khalid Elsawi, from the Office of Political Affairs, speaking on behalf of UNAMI, emphasized the key role of youth in building a peaceful and sustainable future Iraq, which will meet the aspirations of all its people. This cannot be done without the political, social and economic participation of young people.
The activity is in line with UNAMI’s mandate to support youth and their valuable contributions to Iraqi public life.
Similar workshops were recently organised in Basra, Karbala, Babil, Anbar and Najaf.

Drought and extreme weather events in Central America have repercussions that affect stability and security on the U.S. border. Water insecurity exacerbates food security issues, which in turn has multiple trickle down effects. Livelihoods are affected, which contributes to migration within and across borders, and can in turn inflame conflict, weaken governance, and create footholds for drug cartels. Ensuring that Central American countries have solutions to food and water security challenges is paramount to continued stability and sustainability in the region.
This panel explores the challenges posed by the convergence of adverse weather events, conflicts over natural resources, rise in levels of violence, and the weakening of the rule of law for U.S. interests in the region and the security of U.S. borders.

Tomb of Stability, Beijing, China
Emperor Wanli’s tomb was named Tomb of Stability. I’m afraid that the emperor was hoping for a peaceful and tranquil afterlife of his own. Or perhaps it was to praise his reign when his people enjoyed such benefits. Nevertheless the tomb probably had costed much more than necessary and caused a heavy burden on the people after all. I marveled at its artistic merits, but at the same time wishes it were simpler.
