XIII. Orvosi Misszió Blog

Afrikai Magyar Egyesület - Wed, 30/03/2016 - 08:44

A Magyar Afrika Társaság 2016. április 4-én indította immár XIII. orvosi misszióját a fekete kontinensre. A csapat tagjai az egy hónapos út során Uganda különböző részein fognak gyógyítani és felvilágosító előadásokat tartani a helyi lakosság számára.

Az önkéntesek egy hetet töltenek majd el munkával a Buganda Királyság területén, ahol a királyság orvosi csapatával közösen segítenek a betegeken. Kapekében és környékén szintén egy hétig nyújtanak szakellátást, az idő hátralévő részében pedig a rászoruló kampalai lakosokat és a rendőrség személyi állományát vizsgálják meg. A misszió tagjai dr. Bagdi Zita általános orvos, dr. Kapi Zsófia fül-orr-gégész, Gáspár Attila mentőtiszt, Kovács Bernadett AHU koordinátor és Kovács Dániel önkéntesek. Munkájukról, tapasztalataikról és élményeikről folyamatosan frissülő blogunkon olvashatnak!

Köszönjük a Hartmann-Rico Hungária Kft-nek, a Green Sound Plusz Kft-nek, Túlélővíz.hu-nak, a Salus Kft-nek, a Speeding Kft-nek és a Schiller-Diamed Kft-nek, hogy támogatásukkal hozzájárulnak orvosi missziónk sikerességéhez!

Az utolsó munkanapunk is pörgősen telt. A Kyanja Community Health Center-ben dolgoztunk. Már voltunk itt a misszió alatt, így a helyszín nem volt idegen a számunkra.

Cette décision des adhérents doit maintenant être entérinée par le comité de pilotage qui se réunit jeudi prochain.

Swedish defense giant Saab is to offer its Sea Giraffe 1X 3D, active electronically scanned array (AESA) naval radar to the US market, showcasing it at the Maritime Security East Conference in Norfolk, Virginia this week. At 650 pounds, the radar is suitable for small patrol boats, giving them the ability to detect unmanned aerial vehicles for the first time. With no forced cooling requirements, and a minimal number of line-replaceable units (LRUs), it requires little power or upkeep. All maintenance, including LRU repair, can be performed by low-level trained engineers.

Study - The Future of EU Defence Research - PE 535.003 - Subcommittee on Security and Defence

There is an increasing demand for the EU to become a ‘Security Provider’. This demand comes from Europe’s best ally, namely the U.S., but also from Member States themselves. For the first time ever the defence solidarity clause of article 42.7 of the Treaty on European Union was invoked in November 2015. Ultimately the demand to put ‘more defence in the Union’ comes from European citizens who wonder why Europe does not protect them in the current turmoil. From the answer to this question depends not only Europe’s ‘strategic autonomy’, but possibly the future of the whole European project. Several steps have already been initiated to answer the call for more defence in Europe. Since the beginning of his mandate, President Juncker has declared defence a ‘priority’, called for the implementation of the Permanent Structured Cooperation enshrined in the Lisbon Treaty and reiterated the long term vision of a ’European army’. In June 2016, a ‘global strategy’ will be issued and a Commission Defence Action Plan should follow by the end of 2016. A ‘Pilot Project’, adopted by the European Parliament in autumn 2014, has been launched and should open the path to a ‘Preparatory Action on Defence Research’ that may be voted in 2016 for the 2017-2020 budgets. A natural underpinning of those efforts should be the undertaking of a full-fledged Union programme in defence research. The size, the shape and the steps to be taken towards setting it up are the subject of the present report.

Les révolutions arabes, vecteur d’islamisation ?

Géopolitique des conflits (Blog) - Tue, 29/03/2016 - 23:35
Texte rédigé en septembre 2014 Progression de l’État islamique en Syrie, milices islamistes en Libye, progression de groupes armés sunnites dans le nord du Liban, combats d’Al Qaida au Yémen… Les révolutions arabes sont désormais régulièrement pointées du doigt comme un échec démocratique favorisant les forces de l’Islam radical.
