Introduction of W National Park of Niger The Niger part of ‘W’ National Park is located in a region, which shows transformation between Savannah and forest areas. This park has become an icon for the meaningful analysis of the environmental patterns in the West African Woodlands and Savannah. This area entails the complete story about the relation of humans with natural resources, starting from the era of the Stone Age up to the modern changes in the area. This park reflects the preservation strategy for the cultural heritage. Cultural heritage has always been the source of inspiration for every upcoming generation. This park also describes the exclusive relationship between the animals and the plants. In this park, life comes into the view in different images, such as plants, humans, animals, etc. Purpose of UNESCO The United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) is the main campaign hub for the motivation of cultural preservation and environmental protection, announcing this environment as the best fit for human health. This idea was officially undertaken by UNESCO in 1972 when an international agreement was made in the convention for the protection of global culture and heritage. This organization mainly urges to enhance the preservation and protection of the global culture and heritage. UNESCO also campaigns for the promotional schemes of the World Heritage List by urging states for the indication of different sites as its package. It also facilitates the World Heritage sites by defending these sites against the threatening environment. It also has compiled the plans for the conservation of World Heritage by instigating activities among the states. It also functions to integrate human beings with their natural heritage and prepares them to deal with the dangers of a safe environment on the individual levels. UNESCO also produces strong relationships among different states by making them busy in various preservation works in the venture forms. UNESCO Activities UNESCO has conducted many programs to save and preserve the culture and heritage in different states. This promotion of cultural preservation started after the end of the Second World War. The 1972 convention focused mainly on maintenance of the natural beauty. In the year of 1959, UNESCO initiated an international movement for the protection of the environment on the urge of the Egyptian and Sudan governments. After the successful completion of this UNESCO project, many of the other campaigns got acceleration for the execution. Such types of activities triggered the process of preservation and conservation of culture and heritage. This organization’s cultural programs include conservation of cultural s
Introduction Parents all over the world face pressure to control their teenage sons and daughters. They are crying for help to save their wards from the peer pressures. As soon as the children leave their school and step into high school they find themselves in a kind of glamour world. They intend to perform some odd jobs just because either their friends are doing it or it becomes a matter of showing self standard. Among these are the vices of taking up smoking and alcohol. This mainly happens especially when it is a matter of showing off in front of peers. In order to keep up with this trend students become rebellious and their parents feel helpless. Thus, the cause lies in responding to peer pressure by creating an identity in front of the peer group and the effect is the inclination towards various vices during teens. (Hill, 89) Discussion The first step to drugs is a very common symptom of this issue. This may lead to addiction and ending up into rehabilitation center. It is impossible to idealize what peer pressure can make one perform. Different criminal activities or teen sexual acts are common outcomes of this pressure. The cause of this peer pressure starts with the search of self-identity and it lies in the path of development of self-belief. Once a teen is out of the emotional and physical shelter of the parents it becomes obvious that there waits a competitive world to face and environment of high school provides the first step of this outer world. Under such conditions, it becomes necessary to make a mark of ones existence in the real world, in front of the peer group and to oneself at the same time. However, the best and easy way in this tough world, or in the peer group, is to prove oneself as a rebellious teen. Sure, being an exceptional student is always a better choice any day, anywhere. Nevertheless, to achieve this goal needs a hard and arduous schedule to follow and the result is not quick either. Thus, to achieve importance in the peer group it needs rebellious image. Creating a tough image is the best and the easiest way out. (Brown, 7) It is a common practice in Oxford for the new students to attend drinking parties in local pubs. It is an act of binge drinking that is supposed to be proof of toughness in front of peers and worthy of the admission in the student community. (Hill, 104) Conclusion In order to create a tough and rebellious image the elements needed are a
Introduction The University of BuProMan celebrated its centennial recently, and it has faculties such as Medicine, Arts, Engineering, and Management. The University has an excellent reputation and has always emerged top in the state according to university rankings. BuProMan University has had a tremendous and successful path as an organization, producing great people in the society including a Nobel Peace Prize winner in medicine, a highly competitive field. The recent university rankings rated BuProMan is at number four, and this has given the management, alumni, and even the current scholars a hard time. As a result of the University’s latest ranking, the number of students registering with the University for different courses, and enrollment numbers have reduced significantly. The university has also tried calling students for classes, but few are turning up, while many are opting to go to better high-ranking institutions. The main reason being everybody wants to be associated with success, and this means parents and students will prefer the top-rated universities for better reputation, gain, and education. To salvage the BuProMan situation, the University under a new Chancellor has decided to take on their dreams of expanding overseas through offering online double degrees for postgraduates, an activity that will reward the university financially. The poor performance comes from poor marketing strategy to potential markets because students of high-caliber do not attend any university but that which is widely known and respected. The University under the new leadership of John Steward has already organized fundraising with alumni and large benefactors and promised that the institution should regain its position and its past glory. The management of BuProMan’s processes is entirely manual thus causing difficulties in the retrieval of data and control of systems. Data errors such as double-entry of information and other inconsistencies have happened because of manual data entry. The organization under John Steward shall have reshuffled some employees and given them new roles as the old ones set new targets for the next three years. To help the institution achieve its new vision, they should introduce the BPM (Business Process Management) whose strategy should have futuristic goals. The plan should have a timeline through which the organization operates. In this case, the chancellor requires four years to provide a report to the stakeholders who took part in a fundraiser. The essential components of the organization include leadership; people change management and BPM project management without which the entire BPM activity should build on. The BPM project does not indicate that accountability is crucial, but the whole management endeavor requires responsibility. The 7FE Framework Organization leaders need to come up with an appropriate environment and high-level guidelines on how to execute the strategy of the organization. Alignment is one of the critical structures that a manager needs for achievement from the topmost t

Introduction According to the reviews the expansion of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) perception and its four mechanisms: economic, legal, ethical and altruistic duties. Discusses dissimilar perspectives on the good role of trade in society, from profit making to community service supplier. Suggests that much of the bewilderment and disagreement over CSR stem from a failure to distinguish in the midst of ethical, altruistic and planned forms of CSR. On the basis of a methodical assessment of the arguments for and alongside altruistic CSR, concurs with Milton Friedman that philanthropic CSR is not a lawful role of business. Proposes that ethical CSR, beached in the perception of ethical duties and responsibilities, is obligatory. Concludes that planned CSR is good for trade and society. Advises that advertising take a guide role in planned CSR activities. Notes complexity in CSR practice and offers proposition for marketers in preparation for strategic CSR and for academic researchers in more clarifying the boundaries of tactical CSR. Legal responsibilities Legal duties involve observe by means of the law and playing by the rules of the game. Laws regulating trade conduct are passed since society does not always trust trade to do what is right. though, laws have certain inadequacy to make certain responsible behavior: they are of incomplete range (they cannot cover every possible emergency); merely provide a floor or moral minimum for trade conduct; are reactive, telling us what ought not to be done, rather than practical, telling us what ought to be done; and might be followed reluctantly out of fear of sentence rather than willingly out of interior moral confidence. Ethical responsibilities Ethical duties conquer the boundaries of legal duties. They entail being ethical, doing what is right, just, and fair; regarding peoples” moral rights; and avoiding damage or social damage as well as avert harm caused by others (Smith and Quelch, 1993). Ethical responsibilities those policies, organization, decisions, or practices that are either predictable (positive duties) or forbidden (negative duties) by members of society, though they are not essentially codified into law (Carroll, 2001). They gain their source of power from religious convictions, ethical traditions, humane main beliefs, and human rights commitments (Novak, 1996). Today, almost all members of the commerce system agree, at least in hypothesis (although, regrettably, often not in practice) with this third set of social responsibilities”. I call moral duties principled CSR. According to social agreement philosophy, the enterprise’s farm duties ought to be proportionate with its monetary, social and political authority (Bowie,1983; Davis, 1983; Lippke, 1996). A few even say that, since of its size and particular legal status, the modern corporation ought to be considered as a public organization, a individual of the state, rather than a private association, so that it can be held to a advanced legal and moral responsibility than the traditional commerce venture. In any case, social responsibility proponents’ disput
Introduction In the pressure of the financial crisis, every executive faces dramatic outcomes, including high turnover, increased levels of stress among personnel, and lack of corporate culture. The solution to these challenges is complex and heart-wrenching: structural reorganization. However, the difficulties regarding meeting the objectives in proper methods make reorganization a hard task for executives, which often results in a failure. In the report, steps and strategies for a reorganization of the staff are discussed, as well as skills executives should have for successful planning and implementation of the plan. A strategy of reorganization should be created at the executive level in accordance with the goals and objectives of the organization. The executive should set measurable steps which must be implemented by managers and staff at the functional level (Rothwell, Stavros, & Sullivan, 2016). The core skills needed in organization development for the executives include organizational skills, direction-setting skills, interpersonal skills, and process skills. Reorganizing Employees Step 1: Defining Goals and Value Proposition At this step, the executive should use leadership skills to focus on key company values and need for improvement. This would enable to highlight the purpose of the organization and establish goals and objectives in accordance with the purpose. While the company’s aims are only the statements of general intent for departments, it is important to define the unit’s value proposition. Clarifying the value could help to develop a common understanding for personnel. According to Collins (2015), to define the value proposition, three questions should be answered: what people are passionate about? What are the best at? What drives the economic engine of the unit? Defining value proposition serves as a basis for the reorganization plan. Step 2: Defining Core Processes and Naming the Jobs In the second step, the executive defines the activities which should be performed to implement the strategies which have been selected as a value proposition. To do that, a Core Process Model should be created, which links the inputs, process steps, and conditions with the desired outcomes. For each desired output, a set of specific processes should be defined. The executive should make sure that there is a consensus in the processes so that each manager will understand the needs and points of overlap as well as how to effectively cooperate. This will help to understand how the department should function to reach the goals, as well as standards and measurements of one’s performance. The next thing the executive should do is to identify jobs and roles for the core processes. Such a step could be a key in creating a process-centric organization. It will also help solve the problem with too many (or too few) job titles given indiscriminately and get reliable data for modernizing the work for existing personnel. At this step, the executive shou
Background There are increasing numbers of people who are living in temporary homes due to one reason or the other. The major reasons that has contributed to this is civil wars/attacks, natural calamities, and political instabilities. An example of this is the case of Haiti Earth quake, six months down the line the affected people are still living in temporary camps and in Kenya there are internally displaced persons in the camps for the last two years. These people have a right to good life, they have properties that cannot fit in the temporary shelters that they are living in and there are donations of properties that cannot fit in the shelters (Preston, pp. 12-32). This paper analyses a non-governmental organization that deals with such issues. The York Region Alliance to End Homelessness This is a Nongovernmental organization concerned about the lives of temporary shelter occupants especially when they are shifting to their permanent homes. The following are the objectives of the organization; To ensure that there is safe storage of furniture and other properties that belong to persons living in temporary shelters and those properties that have been donated to them. As people move to temporary settings, they at times have some of their properties like furniture with them. The furniture cannot however fit in the new homes that they have attained. There is the need to retain this furniture in good conditions so that they can be used later after they have found a decent home. Companies like sleeping home in Canada receive donations on behalf of those people who have been affected in one way or the other. The donations include mattresses and furniture. When they have been received; then they need to be put in good condition. This is one of the objectives that the organization would like to attain and extend beyond Canada. The next objective of the company is to ensure that when the temporary living people are moving to their permanent homes, the furniture that they had has been derived to the new homes; these are both the donated and those that they had initially. In most cases, the displaced have no money or means of transport for this noble course. They need to be assisted in transferring these things to the new locations. Furniture is delicate and thus they require maximum care when they are being transported. The organization needs to fill this gap. There are some institutions in Canada which store properties of temporary sheltered people, for instance, the Salvation Army, but rarely do they transport these properties to the new home of a person.

Introduction It is a fact that art existed even before the beginning of civilization. Civilization led to the development of various tools that helped in improving art. Anthropologists use paintings to get insights into the activities of various ancient cultures. Various ancient cultures had different styles of paintings. Scholars have undertaken extensive studies on ancient Greek and Egyptian art. Most paintings in these cultures depicted different cultural activities. In addition, there were various paintings of the deities of people in these ancient cultures. In Egypt, there were various paintings Isis or other deities of people in the ancient culture. Due to the vicinity of both cultures, the paintings of these ancient cultures influenced each other. One of the common similarities of the paintings of these ancient cultures was the painting of composite beasts. The composite beasts were part human and part animal or part human and part bird. However, Chinese painting developed with little interference from the ancient Egyptian and Greek paintings. Therefore, China has a distinct form of ancient painting. One of the most common features of most Chinese paintings is their simplicity, transcendence, and elegance. Most artists were distinguished scholars who had the respect of the society. The input of these scholars helped in the cultural enrichment of the society. There were significant differences in the ancient paintings of various dynasties. Thesis statement: The study of Chinese paintings would help in providing insights into the social life of people in the different ancient Chinese dynasties. Agenda This essay will explore different paintings that existed in the various ancient Chine
