Download or read book The Effects of Climate Change on Rural Female Farmers in the Wenchi Municipality written by Peter K. Achamwie and published by Track2Publications. This book was released on 2015-01-03 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study examined the effects of climate change on rural female farmers in Wurompo. A farming community, in the Wenchi Municipality of Brong Ahafo region of Ghana. This farming community depends on rain fed agriculture activities for livelihood. In recent years, droughts, unpredictable rainfall pattern and crop failure have become common in the area. The study assessed the knowledge and awareness level of female farmers in the community about climate change. It also identified the effects of climate change on the livelihood of the women in the community as well as examined the adaptation strategies used by the farmers as a way of coping with the situation. Qualitative method was used to conduct the study. Focus group discussions and key informant interview were employed. Findings of the study indicated that climate change has negatively affected the livelihood of female farmers in the community leading to a decline in food crops production and water stress possibly because of observed temperature rise. Furthermore, the study indicates the main challenges to climate change adaptation, to include poverty, lack of adequate information on the adverse impact of climate change, basic infrastructure challenges and modern farming implements and practices. The study recommends that female farmers be educated on the negative impacts of climate change and training with the necessary adaptation strategies to build their resilience. The Ministry of food and Agriculture should formulate direct policies targeted at rural female farmers to adapt to climate change and device a modern agricultural techniques and practices to boast food production in the area.

Book excerpt: Insurance business in India had taken step first in open competitive market then to nationalization. For almost four decades LIC has been the sole player with virtual monopoly in the Life Insurance Sector, it was in 1990,s government of India ventured into policy of liberalization and privatization and once again the insurance sector is back to privatize and liberalized market. Hence today most of the private players are giving competition to the public sector company, As private players entered in the market the market is booming in insurance sector with various products for attracting the attention of customer consequently by the year 2000-2001 , 12 players entered the life insurance sector .which will effect the performance of life insurance corporation .Thus the LIC had never faced any competition and at the same time had monopoly in the market, now has to compete with the private players,. It is therefore important to study the performance of Life Insurance Corporation after the entry of the private players and after adapting liberalize policy by the government therefore it becomes imperative to evaluate the performance of life insurance Corporation of India. The entry of private players in the market after adapting privatization by the government had effected in the performance of the life insurance sector, which is the key sector in the financial system Hence there is primary need to evaluate the performance of LIC and to study the need of privatization in Life Insurance Sector at the same time to study impact of private entrants in Insurance Sector, especially with regard to performance of life Insurance Corporation of India The broader objective of this study is to evaluate the role of privatization on the performance of LIC. Following are the specific objectives of this study; 1. To evaluate the performance of LIC 2. To study the need of privatization in Life Insurance Sector 3. To study impact of private entrants in Insurance Sector, Specially with regard to performance of life Insurance Corporation of India The suggestion and criticism for the improvement in the research are welcome.
Book Synopsis An Analysis of Trade Union Strategies in the new Employee Relations Climate in Mauritius by : Nirmal Kumar Betchoo
Download or read book An Analysis of Trade Union Strategies in the new Employee Relations Climate in Mauritius written by Nirmal Kumar Betchoo and published by EduPedia Publications (P) Ltd. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation aimed at identifying and explaining why trade unions in Mauritius have lost their influence in the contemporary workplace context. After being vibrant during the buoyant period of the 1970s, trade unions now face challenges that they must justly consider to enable them develop in todays society. This phenomenon is global and affects both advanced and developing economies from a workplace perspective. The study examined why trade unions lost their influence over employees, members and society. It identified that trade union influence was on the decline and, if unions maintained the same structure and objectives that focused mainly on member recruitment and disputes over pay, they would not survive in the current and forthcoming conditions since there is better employee education, legal framework supporting employees and wider use of technology. The Employee Relations Act 2008 served as a background with new developments in favour of the employee but unions contested key provisions it made. The research conducted with a systematically organised sample of some 100 respondents, confirmed that unions, both public and private, had to focus on strategic factors and that these would determine their success. The findings showed that if unions followed key strategies for their survival, namely innovation in communication, leadership, female empowerment, social partnership, union rationalisation and focus on globalisation, they would secure better chances to remain relevant and maintain their credibility among the stakeholders of employee relations, in particular, employees, employers and government. A model and recommendations were developed that could lead to ensuring the success and survival of trade unions in Mauritius in the years to come.

Book Synopsis The Dark Side of Innovation by : Alex Coad
Download or read book The Dark Side of Innovation written by Alex Coad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-24 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a reaction to popular assumptions that innovation is always a force for good. While the popular press and politicians often take the view that "the more innovation, the better", the chapters in this edited volume reflect on the harmful effects of innovation on society and the environment. The book begins with a broad discussion of the dark side of innovation, followed by contributions by various experts in the area. It is a critical reply to the innovation optimists, complementing the list of indicators that show steady human progress with a list of indicators that show sustained deterioration (largely due to innovation). The volume outlines some relevant dimensions of harmful innovation, before distinguishing between the types of harm brought on by innovation. The various contributed chapters focus on the following themes: a bibliometric analysis of the scientific literature on the harmful consequences of innovation; harmful side-effects from solar photovoltaic waste; harmful consequences of process innovations on working practices in areas such as accountancy; the difficulties of transferring innovations from research to practice in clinical healthcare; and the harmful consequences of social innovations. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Industry and Innovation.

Ventakesh is determined to make amends to his impoverished stepmother—but how can he repay his father’s debt? Mukesh, a young man, is shocked to realize after his father’s death that he was actually adopted. He sets out to find his biological mother, but the deeper he delves, the more confused he is about where his loyalties should lie: with the mother who gave birth to him, or with the mother who brought him up. The Mother I Never Knew is a poignant, dramatic book that reaches deep into the human heart to reveal what we really feel about those closest to us.

Book Synopsis Citation Analysis in Research Evaluation by : Henk F. Moed
Download or read book Citation Analysis in Research Evaluation written by Henk F. Moed and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for members of the scholarly research community, and for persons involved in research evaluation and research policy. More specifically, it is directed towards the following four main groups of readers: – All scientists and scholars who have been or will be subjected to a quantitative assessment of research performance using citation analysis. – Research policy makers and managers who wish to become conversant with the basic features of citation analysis, and about its potentialities and limitations. – Members of peer review committees and other evaluators, who consider the use of citation analysis as a tool in their assessments. – Practitioners and students in the field of quantitative science and technology studies, informetrics, and library and information science. Citation analysis involves the construction and application of a series of indicators of the ‘impact’, ‘influence’ or ‘quality’ of scholarly work, derived from citation data, i.e. data on references cited in footnotes or bibliographies of scholarly research publications. Such indicators are applied both in the study of scholarly communication and in the assessment of research performance. The term ‘scholarly’ comprises all domains of science and scholarship, including not only those fields that are normally denoted as science – the natural and life sciences, mathematical and technical sciences – but also social sciences and humanities.

Book Synopsis Management Studies – Exploring New Opportunities by : Manoj Kumar

This book was released on 2013-01-10 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The capacity and willingness to develop, organize and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit. The most obvious example of entrepreneurship is the starting of new businesses. In economics, entrepreneurship combined with land, labor, natural resources and capital can produce profit. Entrepreneurial spirit is characterized by innovation and risk-taking, and is an essential part of a nation's ability to succeed in an ever changing and increasingly competitive global marketplace. Not sure whether you are cut out for starting your own business? Don't worry, you have company. Most people have dreamed about launching their own venture at some stage of their lives but the majority do not even take the first step. They are held back by a number of reasons. Some fear that if their business does not succeed, they could lose the investment they make. In many cases, that's their entire life's savings. Others think they are too old. In fact, even if they overcome one argument that is keeping them back, they think of another one to stop themselves from taking the plunge. Age is definitely not a factor to consider before getting into business for yourself. An article titled, "Entrepreneurs Get Better with Age" in Harvard Business Review says, "The average age of a successful entrepreneur in high-growth industries such as computers, health care, and aerospace is 40" and "Twice as many successful entrepreneurs are over 50 as under 25." Colonel Sanders started the Kentucky Fried Chicken chain of restaurants when he was 65 and Takichiro Mori, who built a real estate empire worth $13 billion, made his first investment in property at the age of 55. Many of those who throw up their jobs and make it on their own, certainly do have some combination of these abilities. But everyone who has these attributes does not become an entrepreneur. Seth Godin, the author and entrepreneur, says, "Studying entrepreneurship without doing it ...is like studying the appreciation of music without listening to it." The only way to really find out whether you have what it takes is to start your own business and get a first-hand feel of entrepreneurship. Of course, this is not to suggest that you launch on a big scale right away. Devote a little time each day, make some small investments in the field of your choice and see if you like the experience. If you have an eye for color and furnishings and are contemplating a venture in interior decoration, start by meeting someone who is in the same profession. While you may have the ability to furnish a room beautifully, do you know how to attract customers? Where will you source accessories from? Can you make an estimate for doing a job? Do you have a list of sub-contractors whom you can engage? The process of finding answers to all these questions will give you an idea about your capabilities. You will realize that becoming an interior decorator requires you to have many skills in addition to the ability to make a room look pleasing to the eye. If you are able to actually take up an interior decoration project for a customer, it will give you a genuine basis on which you can decide whether you are cut out for entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs also need to dedicate long hours to mundane tasks like accounting, filing tax returns, complying with local, state and federal laws and doing different types of administrative work. Keep in mind that none of these tasks are related to your core business and they don't get you any new customers. But you have to make the effort to complete them anyway. Still not sure whether to make a start? Maybe this piece of advice from articles of other authors in this book will help.
Book Synopsis Redundancy in Robot Manipulators and Multi-Robot Systems by : Dejan Milutinović
Download or read book Redundancy in Robot Manipulators and Multi-Robot Systems written by Dejan Milutinović and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trend in the evolution of robotic systems is that the number of degrees of freedom increases. This is visible both in robot manipulator design and in the shift of focus from single to multi-robot systems. Following the principles of evolution in nature, one may infer that adding degrees of freedom to robot systems design is beneficial. However, since nature did not select snake-like bodies for all creatures, it is reasonable to expect the presence of a certain selection pressure on the number of degrees of freedom. Thus, understanding costs and benefits of multiple degrees of freedom, especially those that create redundancy, is a fundamental problem in the field of robotics. This volume is mostly based on the works presented at the workshop on Redundancy in Robot Manipulators and Multi-Robot Systems at the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems - IROS 2011. The workshop was envisioned as a dialog between researchers from two separate, but obviously related fields of robotics: one that deals with systems having multiple degrees of freedom, including redundant robot manipulators, and the other that deals with multirobot systems. The volume consists of twelve chapters, each representing one of the two fields.

Book Synopsis The Analysis of Directional Time Series: Applications to Wind Speed and Direction by : Jens Breckling
Download or read book The Analysis of Directional Time Series: Applications to Wind Speed and Direction written by Jens Breckling and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given a series of wind speeds and directions from the port of Fremantle the aim of this monograph is to detect general weather patterns and seasonal characteristics. To separate the daily land and sea breeze cycle and other short-term disturbances from the general wind, the series is divided into a daily and a longer term, synoptic component. The latter is related to the atmospheric pressure field, while the former is studied in order i) to isolate particular short-term events such as calms, storms and oscillating winds, and ii) to determine the land and sea breeze cycle which dominates the weather pattern for most of the year. All these patterns are described in detail and are related to the synoptic component of the data. Two time series models for directional data and a new measure of angular association are introduced to provide the basis for certain parts of the analysis.
