Abstract:
Although Belize City has almost always been the centre of population in Belize, few studies have been devoted to its historical geography–or indeed to the urban geography of the country as a whole. The purpose of this paper is to gather together much of the scattered material on Belize City, in the hope that this codification will help the reader to understand the growth and present status of the city, and, perhaps, inspire others to do further research on this, still the major urban centre of Belize.

Abstract:
This paper provides a preliminary report on attitudes toward varieties of Belizean Kriol in coastal Belize. We used a verbal-guise test with 141 participants, collecting both quantitative and qualitative data in Belize City and Punta Gorda, and we found that the variety of Kriol spoken in Belize City is rated more highly in general along several dimensions than the variety spoken in Punta Gorda. We also found that BC Kriol was rated more highly by male participants from both test sites. This paper is the first installment of an ongoing project, which investigates the linguistic prestige system(s) in place with respect to Kriol by region and among individual ethnic groups in Belize.

Abstract:
With the ultimate goal of developing an accident and emergency (A&E) department HIV testing program in Belize City, Belize, we sought input from key stakeholders on program components and potential facilitators and barriers to HIV testing in emergency care. We conducted semistructured interviews among 4 key stakeholder groups at Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital Authority (KHMHA) in Belize City: (1) 20 A&E patients, (2) 5 A&E physicians, (3) 5 A&E nurses, and (4) 5 KHMHA administrators. We performed a qualitative content analysis of the interview transcripts and isolated important themes. Major themes included: (1) Patient selection: patients preferred to test all A&E patients. All other stakeholder groups preferred testing specific patient groups. (2) Training: Specific training should be completed for staff. (3) Confidentiality: integral for testing. (4) Facilitators and barriers: facilitators included respectful relationships, privacy, resources, coordination, and education. Barriers included stigmatization, patient willingness, inadequate resources, privacy, and testing biases.

Abstract:
As the British colony of British Honduras prepared for independence, it adopted two important symbols of its emerging identity; the name of Belize was chosen for the new country and a new capital was planned from which this emerging nation would be governed. That new capital was called Belmopan and was to be established inland from the old coastal capital of Belize City. Designed by the British planning and architectural firm of Norman and Dawbarn, this new city followed in the tradition of British Garden City planning, making discrete references to the Mayan heritage of the region, while using the modernist architectural vocabulary typical of so much of the infrastructural development taking place at this time in various nations emerging from colonial status.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis traces the history of a collection of domestic objects and amateur crafts given to a museum during the first half of the twentieth century. Using the metaphor of archaeology, it takes an object-centred approach to the investigation of changing relationships over time between a collection of objects, an archive of letters, and the institution in which they are held. Drawing on developments in sensory anthropology, theoretical distinctions between objects and things, and letter-writing as a gendered social practice, it treats this material as both ‘evidence and affect’, using writing and photography to consider sensorial and emotional responses to objects, documents and place alongside the historical data they may yield. It situates this within wider historical and biographical research into private and public collecting during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In so doing, this thesis provides new insight into the histories of collecting and the development of the municipal art gallery in Britain during the interwar period. It evidences the centrality of decorative art to an increasing domestication of the art museum in the aftermath of the First World War, even as modernist art practices prompted the development of the formalist ‘white cube’ aesthetic. It demonstrates the conflicted position of decorative art objects within this developing dynamic, caught between aesthetic and ethnographic criteria of value. It also challenges received knowledge in relation to the gendered history of institutional collecting. Mary Greg is identified as a significant patron of multiple museums, her interests contributing to an expansion of scope in what was considered worthy of museum preservation. The Mary Greg Collection in Manchester is shown to manifest, in microcosm, a history of changing attitudes towards the material culture of the domestic past, from nineteenth century antiquarianism, through an Arts and Crafts sensibility and developments in domestic ethnography, to the early twentieth century theorising of childhood and the interwar handicrafts revival. However, this thesis also demonstrates how formal technologies of record keeping, distinctions between professional and amateur, and developing hierarchies of museological value, as well as social and gendered modes of propriety, all contributed to the obscuring of one woman’s contribution to British museum culture. Bringing the history of the collection up to the present day, this research also considers the ways in which museums incorporate the sedimented layers of their own institutional histories, and how the meaning and value of objects in museums changes over time. Drawing on a Ruskinian notion of ‘voicefulness’, found within the collection’s history, it makes a case for alternative museological criteria of value based on qualities of intimacy, love and curiosity. In so doing, it demonstrates how the legacies of past collecting practices, often difficult to reconcile with contemporary professional concerns, may yet have the potential to yield not just new insights into the past, but new possibilities in the future.

Abstract:
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are a growing problem worldwide and young people are especially vulnerable. Every day about 1 million people contract a sexually transmitted disease (STD) and over half of the newly infected are young people aged between 15-24 years. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate knowledge, attitudes and beliefs related to STDs among adolescents at a secondary school in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and to compare the genders regarding these issues. Method: This study was a descriptive and comparative cross-sectional study and a quantitative approach was used. The project was carried out at Nhan Dao Vocational Secondary School in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Two hundred and ten male and female students aged between 15-24 years participated in the study and chose to fill in the questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of 31 questions regarding the students’ knowledge, attitude and beliefs of STD. Leininger’s Theory of Cultural Care Diversity and Universality was provided as theoretical framework. Results: The Vietnamese students at Nhan Dao Vocational School in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, had low knowledge about STDs and the students’ attitudes to and beliefs about STDs showed that there exists a lot of misconceptions about the subject. The study did not show any major differences between the genders regarding knowledge, attitude or beliefs. Conclusions: Further research about young people’s practice needs to be performed in order to receive a wider perspective on young Vietnamese people’s knowledge, attitudes and beliefs. It is also important in order to be able to draw conclusions concerning whether knowledge and attitudes are related to sexual practice.
Sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar (STD) är ett växande problem världen över och ungdomar är särskilt utsatta. Varje dag smittas ca 1 miljon personer av en sexuellt överförbar sjukdom (STD) och över hälften av de smittade är ungdomar mellan 15-24 år. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka kunskaper, attityder och övertygelser relaterade till sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar bland ungdomar på en gymnasieskola i Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, och att jämföra könen i dessa frågor. Metod: Denna studie var en beskrivande, jämförande tvärsnittsstudie med kvantitativ metod. Projektet genomfördes på Nhan Dao Vocational Secondary School i Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Tvåhundra tio manliga och kvinnliga studenter i åldern 15-24 år deltog i studien och valde att fylla i frågeformuläret. Frågeformuläret bestod av 31 frågor om elevernas kunskaper, attityder och övertygelser om STD. Som teoretisk referensram användes Leiningers teori om mångfald och universalitet i kulturrelaterad omsorg. Resultat: De vietnamesiska studenterna hade bristande kunskap om sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar och elevernas attityd till och övertygelser om sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar visade att det finns många missuppfattningar om ämnet. Studien visade inte några större skillnader mellan könen när det gäller kunskap, attityd eller övertygelse. Slutsats: Ytterligare forskning om ungdomars sexuella vanor behöver utövas för att få ett vidare perspektiv på vietnamesiska ungdomars kunskaper, attityder och övertygelser. Det är också viktigt för att kunna dra slutsatser om huruvida kunskap och attityder är relaterade till det sexuella utövandet.

Abstract:
Le théâtre symboliste, au tournant des dix-neuf et vingtième siècles en France et en Belgique, a souvent été considéré comme un théâtre de réaction, dont l'idéalisme interdisait toute connexion avec les réalités sociale, politique et idéologique de son époque. En analysant le positionnement des artistes symbolistes à l'égard de leur temps à l'aide du principe utopique, plus particulièrement pendant la décennie 1890-1900, il est possible d'y déceler un discours idéologique critique sur le contemporain des auteurs. Déçus par la Troisième République en mal d'idéal et de représentation, sceptiques quant à sa capacité à appliquer les principes de Liberté, d'Egalité et de Fraternité, les artistes symbolistes défendent les libertés de l'individu d'exception (artiste ou héroïque) contre l'égalitarisme républicain jugé illusoire, dans une perspective à la fois anarchiste, antilibérale et réactionnaire. Ils expriment la nécessité de refonder une communauté civique par la fête théâtrale, dans une conception mystique des modalités et des fonctions de l'art investi d’une fonction sociale essentielle (première partie). La représentation théâtrale de l'individu d'exception engagé dans un processus révolutionnaire instaure une dialectique féconde entre mythe, histoire et utopie, qui permet de dégager, dans la fiction théâtrale, les différentes alternatives symbolistes opposées à la société de leur temps (deuxième partie). Les dramaturgies de l'âme et du sujet constituent le point d'aboutissement du projet symboliste, la représentation du sujet servant à la fédération émotionnelle d'une communauté théâtrale idéale, aboutissant à la construction d'une véritable utopie théâtrale (troisième partie)
Late 19th-early 20th century symbolist drama in France and Belgium has often been deemed reactionary as the idealism it conveyed was at odds with the social, political and ideological realities of its time. The Utopian principle helps understand how symbolist artists relate to and prove ideologically critical of their epoch – especially during the 1890-1900 decade. Such artists feel frustrated with the ideal- and representation-deprived Third Republic and sceptical about its ability to enforce the Liberty, Equality and Fraternity principles; they thus favour the liberties of exceptional individuals, including artists and heroic ones, over the illusory-seeming egalitarianism of the Republic which they question from an anarchistic, anti-liberal and reactionary standpoint. Their mystical approach to the form and role of socially irreplaceable art leads them to claim the necessity for theatrical feasts to weave a new civic communal fabric (first part). The theatrical representation of exceptional individuals who have embraced revolutionary methods introduces creative dialectics involving myths, history and Utopias which allow theatrical fiction to stage the range of the symbolists' alternatives to their epoch (second part). Theatrical art dealing with the soul or the subject is the ultimate goal of the symbolist artistic project as the representation of the subject creates emotional bonds within an ideal theatrical community which eventually leads to the creation of a genuine dramatic Utopia (third part)

This thesis examines the relationships between advertising and urban living in the city of Belem, in the period known historically as belle epoque, between the years 1870 and 1912. From the analysis of advertising campaigns, the study focus on the construction of historical representations of the city of Belem of Para, and the evolution of advertising activity in this period. Reflecting on the representations constructed by the look of propaganda and publicity about the city of Belem, conveyed in advertisements for newspapers, almanacs and commemorative albums of the time, sought help to systematize the history of advertising activity between the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century in the Paris of the Tropics . Call belle epoque Amazon depicts the euphoria and the triumph of bourgeois society of the time over a period of effervescence economic, material and technological, from the extraction and marketing of rubber, a fact that has generated a cultural climate, intellectual and artistic which translated into new ways of think and live the life of the city of Belem. This study discusses between the years 1870 and 1912 the role and importance of advertising in this context

A partir da análise de peças publicitárias, o estudo tem como foco a construção histórica de representações sobre a cidade de Belém do Pará, e a evolução da atividade publicitária nesse período. Ao refletir sobre as representações construídas pelo olhar da propaganda e da publicidade sobre a cidade de Belém, veiculadas nas mensagens publicitárias de jornais, almanaques e álbuns comemorativos da época, busca contribuir para a sistematização da história da atividade publicitária entre o final do século XIX e início do século XX na Paris dos Trópicos . A chamada belle époque amazônica retrata a euforia e o triunfo da sociedade burguesa da época num período de efervescência econômica, material e tecnológica, proveniente da extração e comercialização da borracha; fato que gerou um clima cultural, intelectual e artístico, que se traduziu em novos modos de pensar e viver o cotidiano da cidade de Belém. Este estudo discute, entre os anos de 1870 e 1912, o papel e a importância da publicidade nesse contexto

Abstract:
Ce travail se propose d’interroger le sujet pris sous le joug des discours de la post-modernité, à partir de ce que nous repérons comme la désacralisation de la croyance mythique. Ce remodelage symbolique fait basculer le lien social vers une société de la technique, une techni-cité, gouvernée par de nouvelles puissances économiques GAFAtisantes. Le sujet contemporain s’assujetti ainsi aux injonctions a-surmoïques d’un Père 2.0 qui le pousse toujours davantage dans la dégringolade subjective d’une jouissance absolue et massifère. Cette nouvelle organisation sociale fait alors éclore de nouvelles représentations de la folie. C’est ce qui nous pousse à réinterroger cette notion qui éclaire l’ensemble de notre propos. La clinique contemporaine témoigne de quelques formes de résistances du sujet. Celui-ci, ayant besoin de renouveler son rapport à l’Autre, se tourne vers de nouvelles formes de spiritualités qu’il prélève dans d’autres cultures. Il espère à partir de la mise en pratiques de ces traditions pouvoir extraire un savoir sur sa propre condition. Ce faisant, il technicise ces croyances importées qui aussitôt arrachées à leur socle symbolique virent à l’imaginaire et s’assignent à la logique capitaliste. Les nouvelles pratiques qui en émergent relèvent alors d’une post-traditionnalité qui offre un compromis au sujet cherchant à se renouveler subjectivement.La post-modernité ne connaissant aucune frontière, nous mettrons ces questions en jeu dans d’autres sociétés, notamment en Amazonie, au Sénégal et au Vanuatu. Nous constaterons que la folie demeure intimement liée au désordre social et que la contamination du discours économico-techno-scientifique contemporains produit des effets au-delà de la culture occidentale
This research proposes to question the subject taken under the yoke of the discourses of the post-modernity, from what we see as the desecration of mythic belief. This symbolic remodeling shifts the social link towards a society of technology, a “techni-cité”, governed by new « GAFA » economic powers. The contemporary subject is thus subject to the a-parametric injunctions of a Father 2.0 which pushes him ever further into the subjective tumble of an absolute and massive enjoyment and « massifere ». This new social organization then gives rise to new representations of madness. This is what drives us to re-examine this notion that sheds light on our whole subject. This new social organization then gives rise to new representations of madness. This is what drives us to re-examine this notion that sheds light on our whole subject.The contemporary clinic shows some forms of resistance of the subject. The latter, needing to renew his relationship with the Other, turns to new forms of spirituality that he takes from other cultures .He hopes from the putting into practice of these traditions to be able to extract knowledge about his own condition. In doing so he technicizes these imported beliefs, which are immediately torn from their symbolic base, turn to the imaginary and take up capitalist logic. The new practices that emerge from it are part of a post-traditionalism that offers a compromise to the subject that seeks to renew itself subjectively.Since post-modernity knows no boundaries, we will put these issues at stake in other societies, particularly in the Amazon, Senegal and Vanuatu. We will find that madness is closely linked to social disorder and that the contamination of contemporary economic-techno-scientific discourses produces effects beyond occidental culture

Grabli, Charlotte. "L’urbanité sonore : auditeurs, circulations musicales et imaginaires afro-atlantiques entre la cité de Léopoldville et Sophiatown de 1930 à 1960." Thesis, Paris, EHESS, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019EHES0138.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse examine les rapports entre musique et politique dans l’espace de circulations musicales s’étendant entre Sophiatown, à Johannesburg, en Afrique du Sud, et la « cité indigène » de Léopoldville (aujourd’hui Kinshasa), au Congo belge, de 1930 à 1960. L’étude envisage à la fois la fabrique musicale de ces quartiers ségrégués – l’usage des nouvelles technologies d’écoute, l’appropriation des styles afro-atlantiques, la profusion des fêtes et la vie des bars – et la formation de l’espace transcolonial de la musique congolaise moderne, mieux connue sous le nom de « rumba congolaise », à l’ère de la radio. Bien que souvent occulté, le développement précoce de l’industrie musicale sud-africaine joua un rôle important dans l’émergence et la mobilité des premières célébrités médiatiques congolaises qui parcouraient les routes transimpériales entre Léopoldville, Elisabethville (Lubumbashi), Nairobi et Johannesburg. Étudiés conjointement, l’ancrage et le déploiement de ce que nous appelons l’« urbanité sonore » permettent d’éclairer la place des célébrités et chansons transcoloniales dans l’imaginaire politique des auditeurs africains. Ces phénomènes témoignent également des nouvelles possibilités d'émancipation que l'économie des plaisirs offraient aux catégories les plus marginalisées de la ville coloniale, telles que les « femmes libres » et/ou membres des sociétés d'élégance.A la cité de Léopoldville, comme à Sophiatown, auditeurs, danseurs et musiciens contestaient la définition coloniale de l’urbanité alors que le gouvernement monopolisait la définition de « la ville », en même temps qu’il en conditionnait l’accès, symbolique et concret. Jusqu’au lendemain de l’Indépendance du Congo en 1960, la scène musicale de la cité s’établit comme le principal espace d’expression politique et d’affirmation de la place du Congo moderne dans l’Atlantique noir.L’étude considère ainsi la musique dans la continuité de l’écologie sonore de la ville afin d’« écrire le monde depuis une métropole africaine ». Il ne s’agit pas seulement de penser la musique en contexte, mais aussi comme contexte, en tant que paysage, en l’étendant au-delà de la performance pour inclure les différents jeux d’échelle qui façonnaient les mondes musicaux. Pour comprendre la dimension politique des échanges afro-atlantiques impliqués dans la création de la rumba congolaise – un style africain né de l’écoute des musiques afro-cubaines –, il importe de prendre en compte le contexte de globalisation des modes d’écoute et de l’ethnicité. A une époque où le nationalisme racialisé des États-Unis façonnait la compréhension du jazz, comment repenser l’opposition d’une « Afrique latine » à une « Afrique du jazz », dont les pôles respectifs se situeraient à Johannesburg et Léopoldville ? Cette thèse cherche à déconstruire ces représentations tout en observant la puissance d’agir de la musique noire – « sa réalité et son inexistence » – en fonction des contextes, des acteurs et des lieux
This thesis studies connections between music and politics within the space of music circulation stretching from Sophiatown, in Johannesburg, South Africa, to the cité (the “native quarters”) of Léopoldville (today Kinshasa), in the Belgian Congo, from 1930 to 1960. This study considers the music making of these segregated areas – the uses of new sound technologies, the appropriation of Afro-Atlantic styles, the profusion of festivities and nightlife – as well as the formation of the trans-colonial space of modern Congolese music—better known as “Congolese rumba”—in the age of radio. Although often overlooked, the early development of the South African record industry played an important role in the making and mobility of the first Congolese media celebrities who circulated across the trans-imperial roads between Léopoldville, Elisabethville (Lubumbashi), Nairobi and Johannesburg. Studied together, the grounding and the deployment of what I call “sonic urbanity” highlight the place of trans-colonial celebrities and songs in the political imaginary of African listeners. These phenomena also show how the economy of pleasure offered new possibilities of emancipation to the most marginalized categories such as the "free women" and members of women’s fashion associations.Both in the cité of Léopoldville and in Sophiatown, listeners, dancers and musicians challenged ideas of black exclusion to urbanity enforced by the government that conditioned symbolic and material access to “the city”. Until the day after independence in 1960, the musical scene represented the main space for political expression in the modern Congo, allowing it to claim its place in the Black Atlantic.This thesis thus conceptualizes music as part of the city’s ecology of sound in an attempt to “write the world from the African metropolis”. It does not merely think of music in context but also regards it as context and soundscape, extending it beyond performance by including the different “scale games” that shaped musical worlds. Understanding the political dimension of the AfroAtlantic exchanges involved in the creation of Congolese rumba – an African style born out of listening to Afro-Cuban music – requires a consideration of the globalisation of ways of listening and ethnicity. How can we rethink the opposition of a “Latin Africa” to an “Africa of jazz”, whose poles would be located respectively in Léopoldville and Johannesburg, at the moment when U.S. racialized nationalism shaped understandings of jazz? This thesis seeks to both deconstruct these representations and examine the power of black music to act—its “reality and non-existence”— depending on contexts, actors and places

Abstract:
The economies of the ancient Maya did not exist in vacuums; rather they were interconnected to each other. This chapter details the way in which one of these economies functioned during the Late Classic Period (A.D. 550–900). Archaeological research at Caracol, Belize, has been able to reconstruct how ancient Maya production and exchange systems were functioning within a large metropolitan area that serviced over 100,000 people. The population of Caracol maintained agricultural self-sufficiency on the residential level and produced a wide variety of crafts in their households for trade and exchange. Many quotidian goods were imported into the city for distribution, as were items of higher value. Specific exchange areas, in the form of formal plazas, were established to administer the distribution and exchange of goods. These plaza areas were also likely the locations for other administrative services. These physical locales were managed by local elites who in turn had central oversight. The transactions that occurred in these plazas not only served local inhabitants but also presumably resulted in the collection of taxes on the goods and services being traded, thereby bolstering the local and site center’s elite.

Abstract:
In 2021, Dordrecht, the oldest city in the Netherlands, will be commemorating the 600th anniversary of the St. Elizabeth flood. This disaster flood event inundated the entire Dordrecht and separated the city from Geertruidenberg. After the flood Dordrecht was left with only the old city center that the city had to reclaim their land. To date Dordrecht has remained an island surrounded by water. The city’s vulnerability to flooding have prompted the city to actively participate in climate adaptation strategies and innovative design methodologies to help the island city cope with changing climatic conditions. Dordrecht is one of the cities participating in the Room for the River project which allows vast tracks of land to be flooded in the event of a big flood. The city is also surrounded by dikes that protect parts of the city from any impending flood danger. Still the historic city center which lies in the unembanked area occasionally experience flooding. Every two to five years residents of Dordrecht especially in the old city center experience some low level flooding due to high waters and heavy rainfall. Yearly the city conducts a drill in the city center to train people on how to place flood barriers and sandbags in front of their homes. However, there is also a sense of complacency especially for the areas in the city where the structural measures were heavily constructed (those that are within the dike). This feeling of complacency may have been placed due to their strong belief that the city is indeed safe due to the structural measures that have been carefully integrated to ensure that flooding will never happen again. Memory-based disaster experience can be the starting point in building knowledge on disasters. Most often people who have experienced a disaster can provide experiential knowledge in dealing with disasters in the future. Further people who experience disasters on a more regular basis have more built in memory and knowledge. Using interviews from key stakeholders of Dordrecht, the paper will draw out how this memory-based disaster experience and living with water helps Dordrecht towards its vision to become a self-reliant island.

Abstract:
Cities are the most prominent agile and resilient complex systems that evolved over time and space. Many of them survived for centuries, some for more than two millennia, like the Medinas of the MENA region, and they are still thriving. They survived many natural and human-made hazards and crises not to mention fundamental cultural and economic changes. Urbanists and sociologists believe that the key to a sustainable agile city is the existence and living of a community with its inhabitants and users. When the community vanishes, and the communal societal spirit disappears, it is only a matter of time before a city begins to decline and potentially fully disappears or mutates. A gradual disintegration of various infrastructure systems and services leads to crime rise, poverty, deficient educational and health systems, and a growing social divisions and inequalities.

Abstract:
Background: HIV is a virus that attacks the white blood cells (lymphocytes). HIV causing Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). HIV/ AIDS has become a global emergency problem. East Java Province is in the top five of the population infected with HIV (8,204) and AIDS (741) and the most dominant are men. This will worsen the situation of women if they are infected pregnant women. This study aimed to analyze the effect of the Health Belief Model approach on the prevention of HIV/ AIDS among pregnant women in Madiun City, East Java. Subjects and Method: This was a cross sectional study conducted in Madiun City, East Java. A total of 80 pregnant women who conducted HIV/ AIDS check was enrolled in this study. The dependent variable was HIV prevention. The independent variables were perceived seriousness, perceived vulnerability, perceived benefit, and perceived barrier. The data were collected using questionnaire and analyzed using multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: There was a positive effect on perceived seriousness (OR = 8.43; 95% CI=1.38 to 51.4; p = 0.021), perceived vulnerability (OR = 8.36; 95% CI=1.06 to 65.9; p = 0.044), perceived benefit (OR = 12.6; 95% CI=1.37 to 115.5; p = 0.025) on the prevention of HIV/ AIDS among pregnant women and it was statistically significant. There was a negative effect on perceived barrier (OR = 0.13; 95% CI=0.02 to 0.86; p = 0.034) and it was statistically significant. Conclusion: Perceived seriousness, perceived vulnerability, perceived benefit, and perceived barrier influence pregnant women in taking HIV/ AIDS prevention.

Abstract:
Biodiversity inventory is one of the widespread fields in biological studies around the world. The understanding the correct distribution of each taxon needs obtaining the complete number of species’ records in the study area. In this research, we compared the completeness of reliable expert data and citizen science data obtained through iNaturalist platform for the urban area of the city Tyumen. The comparison was conducted using the grid mapping scheme developed by us for the study area with grid cell size of 1 × 1 km. As target plants, an invasive species Heracleum sosnowskyi and a synanthropic species Urtica cannabina were selected. We found that neither only expert data nor only citizen science (iNaturalist) data can reflect a reliable distribution of these species in the city Tyumen. We believe that only joint coordinated use of both citizen science data and expert data could provide the relevant and reliable data on species’ distribution.

Abstract:
There is a bridge in the city I knew in my childhood, a bridge so breathtaking, one would not believe that within its many layers of smooth tenelia stone, there lie millions of eggshells tectonically binding what was once known as the widest arch in the world of that era. Having lived through the dissolution of the seven states that comprised the melting pot of former Yugoslavia and the 1992–1995 brutal genocide of Bosniaks in Mostar, a city of ancient bridge-keepers known as “Mostari,” I’ve directly witnessed the effects of man-made disasters as a strategic form of cultural erasure. This paper aims to critically explore my search towards ‘universality’ in the language of architecture vis-à-vis a sequence of elemental typologies as the new design objective that could challenge and begin to heal variant sites that have endured political, economic and cultural injustices across the world.

Abstract:
In recent years, have negative experienced with global warming, lack of resources, rapidly increasing population and epidemics. As a solution to these problems, green architecture is a design process for sustainable development. With the rise of eco-awareness in the 1960s, the belief in the integration of nature and design in the 20th century has come into being as green architecture today. Green architecture principles are interrelated and are a step towards sustainability. Green architecture; that provides especially energy efficiency, sustainable energy resources, waste reduction, improvement of indoor air quality, environmentally design and construction method that can meet its own needs. Green architecture generally symbolizes one of the urban planning parameters. In this context; green architecture/urban planning; has revealed the concept of eco – city, which has contributes to biological/ geological/ physical, socio-cultural and ecological processes. This article; effects on green architecture/urban planning in the urban to rural context and it will set an example for eco – city by analyzing of Kastamonu/ Cide.

Abstract:
We believe that the new frontiers of Information Technology have to deal with the central role of Infrastructures in the existing city. Indeed, this new generation of infrastructures will allow the 'redirection' of the development. To arrest developments in "Green fields" and direct devel-opments towards "brown areas" in the existing cities we need infrastructures of new generation. In this historical moment, a development phase has to focus on the use of urban voids in the existing city to stop the endless urban sprawl. 'Crossing the Rubicon' was an expression I used years ago - in the preface of Kas Oosterhuis's book "Towards new Architecture"- to underline the role of a generation of architects that put Information Technology at the heart of a new de-velopment phase for architecture. I am using the same expression now to highlight the role that Information Technology has to play to shape new infrastructures. As an example, here I present and discuss the urban project "Tevere Cavo" in Rome.

Abstract:
Some our studies of urban morphology, implemented on historical and contemporary urban fabric maps, allow us to believe that the shape of the lot and of band of pertinence of a pathway are essential to reading the formative urban process. Different phases of formative process of an urban center seems, in fact, to be recognizable in the of shape of lot and interaction between lots and path. These morphological shapes (lots) are the result of different centrality that are produced in the building fabric and, consequently, the restructuring pathways are important for understanding rules and causes of urban and architectural transformation of the city. This paper aims to offer a contribution to the definition of the elements of urban morphology. This research, part of a series of research, carried out in the Lab.

Abstract:
This study explores how intersecting identities based on disability, ethnicity and religion impact the wellbeing of deaf Uzbek Jehovah’s Witnesses in post-Soviet Uzbekistan. By analysing the collected ethnographic data and semi-structured interviews with deaf people, Islamic religious figures, and state officials in the capital city Tashkent, it provides the case of how a reaction of a majority religious group to the freedom of religious belief contributes to the marginalisation and exclusion of religious deaf minorities who were converted from Islam to the Jehovah’s Witnesses. The paper argues that the insensitivity of the dominant Muslim communities to the freedom of religious belief of deaf Uzbek Christian converts excluded them from their project activities and allocation of resources provided by the newly established Islamic Endowment Public charity foundation ‘Vaqf’. Deaf people in Uzbekistan are often stigmatised and discriminated against based on their disability identity, and religious inequality may further exacerbate existing challenges, lead to unintended exclusionary tendencies within the local deaf communities, and ultimately inhibit the formation of collective deaf identity and agency to advocate for their legitimate rights and interests.
