Background of the Project. Ilembula region on altitude of 1.400m during dry season has a big lack of water. During last years Partnership Haar with donation of Faraway foundation of USA supported rain gutter and simtanks in all preaching points of Ilembula and Iyayi Parish. But this capacity is not enough for many people during long dry season so that mostly women and children have to go up to 3 km to find water in the sand of Halali river. They have to dig deep holes and the water is not clean. Actually there are only few xxxxx in Ilembula and Iyayi Parish: at Luduga and Ilembula Secondary School, Ilembula Lutheran Hospital and Welela village (belonging to Catholic Church, near Wanging’ombe Parish). Already in 2016 responsible members of Partnership committee Haar and Faraway foundation decided for the future to support well drilling projects for sustainable water supply and to take donation of US $ 10.000, trans- ferred on 08.02.2017 to Partnership Parish account for one well drilling project. During vis- its in Ilembula and in current corresponding via Email this point was discussed several times. During their visit in April/May 2017 Jochen and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, accompanied by Bryceson Mbilinyi, on 04.05.2017 had a meeting with Planning Director Emanuel Kilundo from Wanging’ombe District at Igwachanya. Kilundo told that District had drilled about 6 xxxxx in their area, with Xxxxxxxxx Hydro Rocks, who is specialized in drilling xxxxx in this area. Government plans new water-pipeline from Kipengere mountains near Igwachanya, to be realized not before 2018/19 and to provide first Saja.
Background of the Project. JCorp is the registered owner of all that piece of master land held under Lot 413, Mukim of Tebrau, District of Johor Bahru, State of Johor, measuring approximately 250 acres, which has subsequently been subdivided into individual lots (“Development Land”). On 3 July 1999, JCorp and JCD had entered into a sale and purchase agreement, whereby JCorp agreed to dispose of and JCD agreed to acquire the Development Land. The sale and purchase of the Development Land was completed and accordingly JCD is the beneficial owner of the Development Land. On 5 August 2002, JCD and DBhd had entered into a sale and purchase agreement whereby, amongst others, JCD agreed to dispose of and DBhd agreed to acquire the Development Land for the Project, for a purchase consideration of RM180.0 million (“Principal SPA”). The Principal SPA also stipulated the appointment of DBhd as the developer (“Appointment”) for the Project. On 10 October 2002, DBhd and DRJ had entered into a deed of assignment, whereby DBhd assigned all DBhd’s rights and interest in the Development Land in respect of the Principal SPA together with the Appointment to DRJ and it was agreed that DRJ shall do all acts and everything necessary as the developer for the purpose of developing the Development Land into a mixed development project known as “Taman Damansara Xxxxx” (“Developer”). On 18 October 2002, JCorp and DRJ had entered into a development rights agreement, whereby JCD, as the beneficial owner of the Development Land grants DRJ the right to develop the Project (“Development Rights Agreement”). On 11 December 2003, JCD, DBhd, DRJ and JCorp had entered into a mutual termination of the Principal SPA and supplemental agreement to the Development Rights Agreement (“Supplemental Agreement”), whereby the parties agreed, amongst others, the following:-
Background of the Project. 1.1.1 The Express Rail Link (XRL) aims at providing a fast and convenient railway service linking the three cities of Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong. The Hong Kong Section of Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (the Project) is approximately 26 km long, in a dedicated underground railway from the boundary at Huanggang to West Kowloon Terminus (WKT).
Background of the Project. CIRCuIT – Circular Construction in Regenerative Cities – is a Horizon 2020 funded project responding to the European Commission’s focus area, ‘Connecting economic and environmental gains – the Circular Economy’. Running for four years from 2019 to 2023, the project will support the creation of regenerative cities by implementing sustainable and circular construction practices. The cities of Copenhagen, Hamburg, Helsinki region and Greater London have brought together a consortium of 31 partners across the entire built environment value chain to work on the project. Through a series of demonstrations, case studies, events and dissemination activities, the project aims to increase the regenerative capacity in the four cities; to reduce the yearly consumption of virgin raw material by 20% in new built environments; and to show cost savings of 15%. The results will have a direct uptake in the value chain and enable cities to build more sustainably and transition to a circular economy on a wider scale. CIRCuIT will implement three innovative interventions in the four cities: • Urban mining and reverse cycles (dismantling buildings to re-use and recycling of materials) • Extending building life through transformation and refurbishment • Designing for disassembly and flexible construction. More details on the CIRCuIT project can be found on the project website: xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxx- xxxxxxx.xx/ This report has been developed as part of work package 7 which explores governance, instruments and urban planning approaches and delivers the objective to analyse needs and opportunities for including circular economy in urban planning as well as in building permits. This report City governments can engage, incentivise, manage, and set a regulatory framework to set the enabling conditions for cities fit for the 21st century to emerge. They can set a direction of travel. By embedding circular economy principles into urban policy levers, cities can bring about changes to the use and management of materials in cities (Xxxxx XxxXxxxxx Foundation, 2019) The aim of this report is to analyse the possibilities the four CIRCuIT city administrations have for including requirements for circular economy and construction in their policy instruments and procedures. The process includes an analysis of existing European, national and local regulation, to identify the room for manoeuvre that the four cities have for including requirements on the reuse and recycling of building products and...
Background of the Project. The interest in information and knowledge about public health and related issues has been growing for the last three decades. There is also a high general public as a political interest in health and related issues. A number of driving forces may explain the growing interest: • New challenges are emerging, e.g. population ageing (European Commission 2007a; The Swedish Institute of Public Health 2006), new threats to health and new technologies (COM 2007a). • Besides questions addressing population’s health, health systems are reorganised and medical as well as other public health services are evaluated to link cost containment, effectiveness and efficiency. • Partially influenced by those developments the interest on issues like prevention and health promotion has been growing. • There is a debate about the social dimension of health and health inequalities (x.x. Xxxxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx 2003; CSDH 2008), for ethical and social reasons, but also for its economic consequences. With the integration of new EU Member States the differences in health have widened. It is seen as a major issue to close health gaps between populations and regions within Member States as well as between Member States. • The World Health Organisation, the EU Health Strategy 2008-2013 and EU Structural Funds (EU SF) policies bring the interrelations of health and wealth, economic growth and employment into focus (COM 2007a,b; Xxxxxxxx et al. 2007; XxXxxx et al. 2008; WHO 2008a,b). Spending for health and health services is not only seen as costs and a burden for the economy, but as an investment for wealth, e.g. economic growth and employment (Mackenbach/Meerding/Kunst 2007; Xxxxxx et al. 2005, 2007, 2008).
Background of the Project. The Road Accident Fund (RAF) wishes to appoint a suitable service provider to conduct an Organisational Structure Review (including Work Study Analysis) and Skills Audit Assessment that is aligned to the organisation’s transformation journey. The achievement of the Organisation’s mandate (current and future) is dependent on the way it is structured from an organisational design perspective. The configuration must be fit for purpose now and for the future RABS (Road Accident Benefit Scheme). It is imperative that the organisational structure is designed and aligned to the RAF strategic trajectory and transformation, including the business processes and functions in the current environment (to continuously improve the performance of the organisation) with a longer term objective. It is against this background that the RAF requires the services of a service provider that will conduct an organisational structure review and also conduct a skills audit and provide a report on the current (technical, functional and leadership) skills that exist within the organisation. This will be accompanied by a skills gap analysis and submission of a comprehensive report reflecting the approach to be taken to fill the identified gaps. Against this background, one of the RAF Annual Performance Plan (APP) targets for the 2019/20 financial year is to produce an approved Skills Transition Plan and for the RAF to produce such a qualitative plan, a skills audit for the organisation needs to be conducted first in order to know and understand all the skills contained within the organisation. Furthermore, this will assist the organisation in aligning the current skills against the required skills for RABS.
Background of the Project. The Government of the United Republic of Tanzania (GoT) and the Government of the Republic of Kenya (GoK) have planned to implement the power transmission line interconnector project where a 400 kV transmission line will be constructed from Singida – Arusha – Namanga border (414 km) on the Tanzanian side to Isinya (96 km) on the Kenyan side. This is part of the Zambia – Tanzania – Kenya power interconnector for power trading among Southern African Power Pool (XXXX) and the Eastern African Power Pool (EAPP) countries. Tanzania Electric Supply Company Ltd (TANESCO) on behalf of the GoT and Kenya Transmission Company Ltd (KETRACO) on behalf of the GoK will supervise construction of the interconnector project, after commissioning the same entities will be responsible for operations and maintenance of the interconnector line in their respective countries. In order to have a sustainable power trade between countries in the region there is a need to have a cost reflective interconnection tariff and wheeling charge for power sale. This calls for a competent consulting firm to undertake a comprehensive study that will come up with an appropriate cost reflective interconnection tariff and wheeling charge. The scope of the consultancy services shall include all steps necessary to achieve the following tasks:
