The study aims at identifying the root of the food crisis in the Arab world and analyzing the underlying factor behind. Among these factors are; the total agricultural domestic production and the large and continuing increase in the number of population in most of Arab countries, Egypt occupies the top position, along with the agricultural production of these countries, the average of the individuals share, the food gap and its causes in order to reach some solutions that will contribute to find out solutions to those problems. Moreover, this study depended on the style of the descriptive statistical analysis to describe the data. Also, this research relied on published and non-published data from the Arab Organization for Agricultural Development along with many of the websites and studies that are relevant to this topic. Finally, the study has concluded that there is an increase in the size of the food gap for each of the following; (refined sugar 65.78%, vegetable oils 64.26%, wheat and flour 54.98%, 41.71% for rice, meat 22.6%) in 2015 in comparison with its counterpart in 2000 that reached about 13.7%, 32%, 52.6%, 55%, 63%, while this self-sufficiency ratio was declined in wheat flour, rice, vegetable oils, meat and refined sugar to about 34.22%, 77.4%, 35.74%,58.29% and 41.02% during the same year in comparison with its counterpart in 2000. Also, this study has illustrated that the proportion of the exported crops to the imported ones from some crops such as wheat, rice, potatoes, beans, vegetables, fruit, sugar, vegetable oil,red meat, white meat, milk and its dairy products (35.1%, 5.12%, 12%, 17.5%, 5.01%, 124.9%, 346.02%, 23.1%, 150.2%, 5.9%,1.4 %) for each of them, respectively. Thus, the study recommends the need for attention and taking it seriously enough before it is too late, especially Arabs own an arable land (Sudan), manpower and expertise (Egypt), Capitalism (Gulf States). Additionally, the closeness of Arabic tastes and the near distances between them reduce shipping coasts and all of those are positive factors for increasing the intra-Arabic exports Arab as well as to avoid the political decisions and completely separate them from the economic decisions which can destroy everything and everybody.

The problem of this study is to represent the negative impacts of pound flotation on the Egyptian economy and on other different aspects of the economy. Also, it aimed at identify the positive and negative impacts of floating the pound on aspects of the recuperating Egyptian economy with all of its suffering in the last period. Among these sufferings are; the recession in tourism, increasing the amount of imports, declining the amount of exports, increasing the prices for the majority of food commodities and lack of wage increases, in an attempt to reach the recommendations that can help to encounter those challenges. In an attempt to achieve this objective, the study tackled the effects of the flotation decision on the foreign exchange earnings, indicators of the Egyptian exports and imports and the living situation of the Egyptian citizen. Finally, the study concluded that the increase of the foreign exchange reserves to about 16.564 billion dollars by the end of August 2016 compared to 15.536 billion dollars by the end of July of the same year. Also, the performance of the Egyptian stock exchange was improved as well as the positive reaction in the market. However, the black market returned to be more active than before, making everyone speculate that the government will decide further actions (the partial removal of subsidies on many strategic goods) as part of the agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Besides, the Egyptian pound still continuing to decline against its counterpart, the dollar, since the dollar price in banks reached to about 18.75 as the price to buy and about 19 pounds as the rate of sale. As for the Egyptian living reality, the flotation decision had a negative impact which was clearly evident in the sharp rise of the prices of all food commodities and production requirements, as well as a severe shortages of many commodities, at the top was the sugar and many medicines, especially after the cessation of the medicine companies form importing, resulting from higher customs dollar as a means to impose pressure on the government to raise prices. Also, the decision to reduce support form gasoline, diesel fuel and supplied goods had a great impact of the rise of all prices of goods and services; such as education, transportation, prices of electricity, water, health care and all aspects of the Egyptian economy. Additionally, this study recommended increasing exports through increasingthe domestic product and giving attention to its quality so that it can compete in the global markets, as well as working on the establishment of large-scale projects (Food industry) to accommodate a great number of labors in order to gradually eliminate unemployment.

India has a unique environmental heritage. It represents almost all type of habitats of the world and almost all types of ecosystem such as mountains, deserts, coastal areas, mangroves, landmass, water bodies, forests and islands. However our development processes that are based on intense utilization of natural resources and energy intensive technology, along with pressure of population and poverty have caused a great damage to environment and resources. Indias rivers are heavily polluted; even groundwater system are polluted and the water levels are falling. Our forest cover is much below the target area stipulated by National Forest Policy of 1988. Our industries that consume most of our resources are throwing poisonous effluents and emissions, polluting air, water and soil. Our agriculture though made us self-sufficient in food has adopted a strategy that demanded heavy use of fertilizer and pesticides. This led to water and soil pollution. As Justice V. R. Krishna yer points out that, "technological Iintocation and glittering growth at all costs have victimized natural resources poisoned the biosphere and depleted the Third World into deeper improverishment." The present study analyse how to create a healthy environment through the Human Rights Education.

In Indian society, women is subjugated and ill-treated in many ways. It is all because of the age old patriarchal society in which the men are always upper hand and dominate the women irrespective of the class, background, plight and predicament of the women.

The success of any educational programme in particular and that of the education system as a whole depends on a number of factors like the quality and infrastructure of educational institutions, sincerity, commitment and goal orientation of the teachers and students, vision and leadership of the administrative and management personnel as well as the feedback and support from the society etc. The schools are the nurseries where the future of mankind is shaped as rightly asserted by Indian Education Commission, 1966. The success of a school depends, in large measure, on the quality of its teaching staff. When the teachers are effective, students learn (Ewan, 2002). Effective teachers add confidence and charisma to their students along with imparting essential skills for knowledge acquisition and enhancement of their learning in a more satisfying, joyful and meaningful ways. On the contrary, poor teachers add stress and sleepless nights to principals’ lives, contribute to low staff morale, and create scores of angry parents. However, ‘most depressing of all is that ineffective teachers damage students and diminish learning’ (Sanders & Rivers, 1996). In the context of modern emerging Indian society, which is in transition from earlier phase of neo-modernism to post modernism under the influence of global changes of different kinds, it is all the more important to focus on teacher’s effectiveness as a means of better student learning and thus better human capital formation. This paper focuses on the two crucial factors namely teacher effectiveness and job satisfaction among teachers as the significant contributors of quality teaching in the classrooms for ensuring the rich dividends from demographic advantages of the country by 2030.The investigators have studied a sample of 150 teachers and found significant relationship between these two factors at 0.01 level.

Com as preocupações voltadas para sistemas sustentáveis, o volume de pesquisas envolvendo o desenvolvimento de projetos com fontes alternativas de geração de energia, vem crescendo consideravelmente, sejam através de prêmios de desenvolvimento, cursos de novas tecnologias, etc. Pode-se perceber que, uma fonte renovável e que apresenta grande capacidade de aproveitamento é justamente a energia solar. Esta energia tem a capacidade, quando adequadamente captada, de se transformar em energia elétrica. Esta transformação é necessária, devido ao fato de os equipamentos que necessitam de energia para seu funcionamento, serem abastecidos de eletricidade. Então é justamente para isto que acontecem os investimentos neste tipo de energia renovável. Mas para que se tenha um maior investimento nas pesquisas das fontes alternativas de energia, deve-se na obtenção de parâmetros que provem que a energia solar é vantajosa. Para isto, estudos comparativos econômicos devem ser feitos, para que possa ser tomada a decisão, de um retorno de investimento, a curto, médio e longo prazo. Com base nestes fatos, é realizado projeto de estudo para elaboração de sistemas eficientes de geração de energia, através da captação solar. A pesquisa feita neste trabalho apresenta características de análise e identificação para um projeto de implantação de um sistema fotovoltaico conectado à rede de energia elétrica em uma edificação comercial no centro urbano de Manaus.

Feminism emerged as a worldwide movement with the purpose of defining, establishing, and defending political and socio-economical rights and equal opportunities for women, establishing gender justice and gender equity. Woman’s individual self has very little recognition and self effacement and self denial has been a woman’s normal way of life for ages. Women, no doubt, have acquired constitutional rights of equality with men, but the change in social attitudes towards women is yet to be achieved. Indian women have always been socially, psychologically, emotionally, sexually and biologically oppressed and exploited in a patriarchal society. Quest for feminine identity is basically a post-independence social phenomenon in India, a Phenomenon influenced by various changing forces of reality- freedom movement, progressive education, increasing contacts with the west, urban growth etc. Many writers in Indian English fiction have portrayed these silent sufferers and offered a voice to these individuals to rebel against the traditional role breaking the silence of suffering to move out of the caged existence and asserting the individual self. This paper is an attempt to explore Shashi Despande’s That Long Silence as a novel which illustrates the image of an educated woman in the middle-class family and the way she is sandwiched between tradition and modernity, illusion and reality, mask and face in quest for her feminine identity. The novel explores the emotional world of the protagonist, revealing a rare imaginative awareness of various deeper forces at work and a profound understanding of feminine sensibility as well as psychology.
