INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES. The Village of Consort and Special Areas Board exist as neighboring municipalities in East Central Alberta in a rural prairie landscape. Due to their shared borders, they have decided to provide for the long-term planning of rural lands between the two Municipalities. They also value the advantages of predetermining processes for land use and development where one Municipality’s border areas are affected by the other’s new developments. Therefore, both Municipalities have decided to develop an intermunicipal development plan (IDP) to provide a predetermined framework to make long-term land use planning decisions. IDPs are broad-based policy documents that strive for environmentally responsible development without significant unnecessary costs and unacceptable negative impacts on the Municipalities. This IDP will provide a platform to formalize the strong relationship between the Village and the Board. By doing so, it is hoped the potential for future disputes is minimized. However, if a future dispute does occur, the Plan also outlines a dispute resolution process agreed upon by both Municipalities. Land use planning decisions made by both Municipalities affect and influence one another. Prominent planning issues include conflicts between differing rural land uses and coordinating infrastructural improvements. Positive relationships will lead to sharing of resources, achieving economic development goals and more efficient municipal and community services. An IDP is arguably the most critical tool in initiating those advantages. The Municipalities believe this Plan will guide future growth and provide a forum for potential intermunicipal collaboration on a wide range of issues. To that extent, the Village and the Board intend to adhere to this Plan by achieving the following objectives:
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES. The Spokane Valley - Rathdrum Prairie (SVRP) aq uifer is the sole source of drinking water for over 400,000 residents in Spokane County, Washington, and Kootenai County, Idaho (Figure 1, located at back of document). Th e area includes the rapidly growing cities of Spokane, Spokane Valley, and Liberty Lake , Washington, and Coeur d’Alene and Post Falls, Idaho. Recent and projected urban, suburban, industrial, and commercial growth has raised concerns about potential future impa cts on water availability and water quality in the SVRP aquifer, and Spokane and Little Spokane rivers. Water resource concerns include growing demands on ground water and declining ground water levels, low stream flow in reaches of the Spokane an d Little Spokane rivers, and water quality problems associated with changing land use activities. Water resource demands are increasing at a time when aquifer and river dynamics are not well understood. This understanding is essential in making proper management decisions concerning ground water and surface water approp riations in the SVRP area. Management of the SVRP aquifer is complicated because of the interstate, multi- jurisdictional responsibilities for the aquife r. The states of Washington and Idaho have primary responsibility for water allocation and water quality. However, local governments are increasingly being called up on to consider water supply and quality implications in land use planning. Aquife r management is also complicated by the interconnection between ground water and su rface water. Surface water flow rates and surface-water quality are influenced by ground water and vise versa. The purpose of this Memorandum of Understa nding is to establish the organizational framework to accomplish a scientifically defens ible hydrologic study of the SVRP aquifer. The study will provide the states with the da ta, the empirical models and the technical analysis they need to assist in water administration.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES. Dissemination, outreach, communication plan will present the overall process that will be followed by the consortium to optimize the awareness of the project’s output as well as the dissemination of project results to all relevant stakeholders, at all levels. The Plan with joint branding, marketing statement and logo are aimed to strengthen the partnership identity and assist common communication activities. The plan is closely related to SAFE SMART FOOD target groups that include: § cluster organizations and their coordinators/managers, specialists; § SME’s in clusters and also outside cluster organizations § regional stakeholders; § venture capital funds; § regional authorities and policy makers. The main communication goal is to disseminate the knowledge of the project, its results and opportunities outside the project consortium and to share common knowledge about cluster excellence. The Communication and Dissemination team In order to facilitate the communication and dissemination of the project activities and results a Communication and Dissemination Team (CT) has been created. This CT is in charge to define and develop the communication and dissemination plan during the project implementation period. All partners participate in the CT. Members of the CT: - Xxxxxxx Xxxxx-Xxxxxxx (coordinator of the team, LFFC/FPQC); - Xxxx Xxxxxx (Packaging Cluster); - Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx (Foodservice cluster) - Giedrius Bagusinskas (LITMEA/SFC); - Xxxxxxxx Xxxx (BIZ-UP / Food Cluster);

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES. The impact of any developmental program/ projects varies since the status of women and DAGs differs as per the socio economic and cultural context. Incorporating GESI approaches and tools recognizes these variations and helps project achieve its goals, objectives and impacts at the equitable manner. Further it makes the program accountable for not to perpetuate and exacerbate gender and social disparities. It empowers women and socially and economically DAGs and also help to achieve gender equality and social inclusiveness. GESI in project aims to removal of institutional and structural barrier through affirmative GESI approaches and design. This ensures that the participation and benefit sharing are reached to socially and economically disadvantaged groups in the society. The GESI approaches in the project takes in to account barriers that excludes the specific disadvantaged groups, like women, youth, dalits, janjatis, and other marginalized communities , thereby, limiting their participation and accessibility of services, technology, benefits and knowledge. Identification of such specific barriers and midcourse corrections allows project to design and implement the activities that will address those constraints and exclusions, which in turn, strengthen the project impacts in a gender and socially inclusive manner This document proposes the Gender and Social Inclusion action plan for the Nepal Seed and Fertilizer (NSAF) project. The objective of this action plan is;

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES. A certain standard of conduct is expected from the Guardian(s), Teachers and the Learner. To sustain a healthy learning environment, it is important that these parties to the education relationship acknowledge their respective responsibilities and conduct themselves accordingly. The Code of Conduct strives to provide a framework for orderly and purposeful education, but with enjoyment and fellowship with peers as an added advantage. Through this Code of Conduct, the School strives to develop and grow all its Learners in an environment of positivity and acknowledgement. Children are recognised and rewarded in many ways thus allowing our focus to be on positive reinforcement, development and growth rather than on disciplinary action and remediation. It indicates the broad standards of behaviour that are expected of Guardian(s), Teachers and Learners at the School and encourages a responsible and self-disciplined approach, rather than a punitive one based on fear. It should be noted that the School’s Code may also have a bearing on the behaviour of the Learner outside of normal school hours, should the Learner’s conduct impact negatively on the Teacher/Learner relationship or reflect badly on the School. All Learners need to abide by the discipline system that has been developed to assist and guide learner behaviour in the School. The Discipline Policy can be found at the end of the Code of Conduct.
