A telescope control system for the next generation of facilities Since 2017 we have been undertaking a collaborative project of software and hardware development towards a new telescope control system for current and new UK and Thai telescopes. In 2017 we were awarded a year of funding for the first phase of this project, which is focused around a requirements analysis and prototype of critical parts of the proposed system for benchmarking against the existing Liverpool Telescope systems. We apply here for funding to continue this project into its final phase, in which we will develop the telescope control system with the aim of full deployment on the Thai National Telescope in 2021.  Thailand has a burgeoning astronomical community and an impressive array of existing infrastructure, along with an established engineering team for the support of operations. However, since much of their equipment has been purchased from external suppliers some of the systems are poorly understood. The TNT control systems for example are based around a proprietary, closed source software, and their network of 0.7 metre telescopes have also been supplied with an entirely different, dedicated interface. This is a risk for the long term stability of these facilities, compromises productivity and limits the ability of the NARIT team to provide upgrades to the current system.  The ARI owns and operates the LT, with operational support from STFC. This facility has a bespoke and established telescope control system (TCS), which is well documented, well understood and with source code available. However, by modern standards it is out-dated.  Our collaborative development project will deliver a control framework which can be deployed on a variety of different facilities. The end product will be a versatile, modular system which will be used on facilities owned by both partners. This will be deployed initially on the TNT, enhancing its scientific and outreach productivity. In the medium term this will replace the system in use on the Liverpool Telescope (LT), and form the basis of the control systems for the NRT project: a major international collaboration with NARIT participation. Aside from the software itself the key benefit for NARIT will be knowledge transfer from the Liverpool Telescope group, which has over a decade of telescope control system experience and expertise. This will provide the NARIT group with the capability to build new control systems for future hardware, such as the Thai radio telescope currently under construction.

Agri-Tech in China Network+ The great majority of China's farms are smallholder properties with insufficient productivity to support farmers in rural communities on their own. Agriculture on these properties is threatened by a number of forces including soil degradation, pollution of soils and chemical residues in crop plants, unsustainable water use and polluted water, and inefficient use of inputs. The UK, through programmes like Newton Network+, will invest tens of millions of pounds over the next few years helping China progress to smarter and more sustainable agricultural systems - ensuring its food security, while opening up huge opportunities for economic growth. Firstly, this Network+ will ensure the effective coordination of these initiatives, and that the different projects link together to strengthen each other. It will do this by undertaking a wide range of networking and engagement activities to link researchers and businesses in China and the UK to ensure maximum possible knowledge sharing and new project development. Secondly, the Network+ will support a pipeline of innovation through the funding of feasibility studies and around 35 proof of concept and feasibility projects to develop pathways to new solutions to the challenges outlined above. Finally, up to 3 of the proof of concept projects will be selected for development into full-scale projects that will result in solutions on the ground to help support economic growth and development in rural communities in China. Finally, the Network+ will support a wide range of dissemination events to ensure that knowledge generated from STFC projects, as well as new results from across the agritech sector, is shared across the community. The Newton Fund builds research and innovation partnerships with developing countries across the world to promote the economic development and social welfare of the partner countries.
Deep Learning for Classification of Astronomical Archives Astronomy is known for producing highly appealing images which often get published and re-published world-wide. HST images, for instance, have appeared on web sites, news papers, and even stamps. Less well known is that these images are the tip of the ice berg. The large majority of images, even from HST, do not contain such pretty structures. Astronomers locate the news-worthy ones by manual inspection of all the data.  Modern astronomical instruments provide far more data than can even be manually inspected. ALMA, for instance, can produce over 10,000 images from a single observation. Each of these measures a slightly different wavelength of radiation, and many of the images will be empty or near-empty. But without looking at each one, how does the astronomer know which images to select?  This project will look at techniques to let computers do the work. They can investigate all images much faster than people can, and can learn which ones are of interest by looking for characteristic patterns. The problem is that they need to be taught what is 'characteristic' something even astronomers may find difficult to put into an algorithm. Malaysian scientists have unparalleled expertise in image classification using deep learning techniques, and in semantic descriptions. This expertise will be brought to the astronomical archives, to develop techniques of computer learning to aid astronomers. Manchester is one of the access points to the ALMA archive. The combination of the data and astrophysical expertise in Manchester  and image classification by deep learning in Malaysia will provide new and powerful tools for science. The Newton Fund builds research and innovation partnerships with developing countries across the world to promote the economic development and social welfare of the partner countries.

Cash-for-Health Assistance to Strengthen Resilience for COVID-19 in Syrian Refugees and Vulnerable Jordanians Despite the Multi Donor Account (MDA) launch in 2019, and expansion in June 2020, significant gaps remain in financing health services for refugees. Through this project, Medair will improve access to health services for vulnerable women, girls, boys, and men refugees through the provision of cash for health (C4H) support, focusing on reproductive health (RH) services, emergency surgeries, and health conditions which left untreated could lead to disability or death. 

Syrian and non-Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanian women, girls, boys and men will be protected from the effects of COVID-19 through providing secondary healthcare through cash-for-health assistance. 738 WGBM will be supported. The targeted beneficiaries (70% refugee, 30% host) will be selected to have high to severe vulnerabilities, those who are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19, those with limited access to health facilities and those with specific protection concerns. The assistance will include: the elderly, those living in Informal Tented Settlements (ITSs), female-headed households (FHHHs), people with disabilities, and those who are not able to afford essential health services. 6% of targeted refugees beneficiaries are expected to be non-Syrian refugees.

Medair will directly implement the project in the target regions of Amman, Irbid, Mafraq, Zarqa, Jerash, Ajloun, Balqa, and Madaba. Medair’s gender-balanced community health volunteers will be used to case-find the most vulnerable cash-for-health beneficiaries and provide health messaging at household level.
Provision of secondary medical intervention for renal patients through supporting the hemodialysis and medications. (Kidney Dialysis for Syrian Refugees in out of
camp setting (14th Phase) The Project aims to increase access and provide sessions of kidney dialysis for kidney failure patients (End Stage Renal Disease) in out-of-camp settings through service providers in Jordanian facilities and Hospitals.
