Abstract:
This qualitative study examined the participatory experiences of people with an intellectual disability as members of government disability advisory bodies in Australia. These forums are one of the strategies adopted by governments to enable people with an intellectual disability to participate in the formulation of social policy. Such opportunities have arisen from progressive policy that frames people with an intellectual disability as full citizens with equal rights to inclusion and participation in society. Little research has considered how people with an intellectual disability experience the participatory opportunities that have grown from this recognition of their rights. This reflects the more traditional focus on their status and participation as consumers and service users. The central question of this study is how people with an intellectual disability experience participation in government advisory bodies, and how such forums can be inclusive and meaningful. This study positions people with an intellectual disability as the experts about their own experiences by relying primarily on their first person accounts of their experiences. Ethnographic and case study methods were employed including in-depth interviews with the central participants, document analysis, observation of the work of the advisory bodies and interviews with others involved in advisory bodies. Analysis led to the development of a typology of participation that describes the political and personal orientations people have to participation. The study found that structures and the processes used by advisory bodies can mediate people�s experiences; however more significantly, the experiences of people with intellectual disability are shaped by their perception of how they are regarded by others. Central to this is the efficacy of support based on the development of collegiate relationships, similar to the notion of civic friendship described by Reinders (2002), rather than support that is solely focussed on tangible accommodations The study concludes that citizen participation bodies have not fully recognised the personal and political potential of members with an intellectual disability. It presents evidence that people with an intellectual disability are capable of this form of participation, can provide legitimate and informed perspectives on policy and can engage meaningfully, given full recognition of their capacity to participate as well as structures and processes that enable this.

Abstract:
This study examines the effect of mentoring on five doctoral student outcomes: satisfaction with advisor, intellectual property events, publications, presentations, and degree progress. Psychosocial support, citizenship, discipline, and identity were examined as four moderator variables. Doctoral students who began their program between August, 2000 and January, 2003, provided information about mentoring from their advisor and other individuals, satisfaction with their advisor, doctoral productivity, and degree progress. Two mentoring factors, career and psychosocial support, significantly interact and predict satisfaction with advisor. At high levels of career or psychosocial support, this interaction has the most effect. Discipline was a significant moderator of career and psychosocial support on number of publications. Citizenship and identity were not significant moderators of mentoring and the five dependent variables. Number of semesters of undergraduate research was significantly related to satisfaction with advisor, intellectual property events, presentations, and degree progress. Most individuals reported having a network of mentors.

Abstract:
Variable speed limit (VSL) systems are important active traffic management tools that are being deployed across the U.S. and indeed around the world for relieving congestion and improving safety. Oregon’s first variable advisory speed limit signs were activated along Oregon Highway 217 in the summer of 2014. The variable advisory speed system is responsive to both congestion and weather conditions. This seven-mile corridor stretches around Western Portland and has suffered from high crash rates and peak period congestion in the past. VSL systems are often deployed to address safety, mobility and sustainability related performance. This research seeks to determine whether the newly implemented variable advisory speed limit system has had measurable impacts on traffic safety and what the scale of the impact has been. The research utilizes a before-after crash analysis with three years of data prior to implementation and around 16 months after. Statistical analysis using an Empirical Bayes (EB) approach will aim to separate the direct impacts of the variable advisory speed limit signs from the long term trends on the highway. In addition, the analysis corrects for the changes in traffic volumes over the study period. Three data sources will be utilized including Washington County 911 call data, Oregon incident reports, and official Oregon Department of Transportation crash data reports. The analysis results are compared between data sources to determine the reliability of 911 call data as a proxy for crash statistics. The conclusions should be able to provide an indication of whether variable advisory speed limits can provide increased safety along high crash corridors.

Thesis (MComm)--Stellenbosch University, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In insurance sales organisations, the Personal Financial Advisors (PFAs) serve a pivotal function in the relationship between the organisation, product and customer. The organisation invests a great deal of time and money in recruiting, training and retaining good PFAs. However, turnover amongst these employees seem to remain high within the first 36 months of employment. The aim of this study was to explore the non-remuneration predictors of burnout and intention to quit amongst PFAs in order to shed some light on the turnover problem. Specific constructs were identified in a pilot study which would not necessarily have been explored by the organisation and may have gone unacknowledged or overlooked. These constructs are emotional labour, self-efficacy, time wasted on non-sales activities, supervisor support and their relationship with burnout and intention to quit. A convenience sample of 608 PFAs was approached from one insurance sales organisation. One hundred and twenty two (122) respondents completed and returned their questionnaires. The descriptive statistics of the sample reflected a mean age of 35 years (range 21 to 61 years), with 66% males and 34% females, and a race distribution of 64% White, 19% African, 10% Coloured and 7% Indian. The majority of the population had been working for 13 to 24 months (46%). Overall, the sample produced a satisfactory to good representation of the demographic statistics of the total population available to the researcher. Both quantitative and qualitative research techniques were utilised in this study. Analysis of the qualitative data supported the role of the theoretical constructs chosen for inclusion and additional sources of job stress were identified. Pearson productmoment correlation analysis was used to analyse the questionnaire data, followed by multiple regression analyses with work burnout, client burnout and intention to quit as dependent variables, and the remaining constructs as the predictors. Both a measurement and structural model was tested; both produced acceptable goodness-of-fit statistics. From all of the above-mentioned analyses, significant relationships were found to exist between time wasted on non-sales activities, burnout, and self-efficacy; self-efficacy, burnout and intention to quit, and burnout and intention to quit. Conclusions were drawn from the obtained results and recommendations are made with respect to future research, as well as with respect to the management of burnout and intention to quit in the sales environment.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In versekeringsmaatskappye speel die Persoonlike Finansiële Adviseur (PFA) ‘n baie belangrike rol in die verhouding tussen die organisasie, die produk en die kliënt. Die organisasie belê heelwat hulpbronne in die vorm van tyd en geld om goeie PFAs te werf, op te lei en te behou. Ten spyte hiervan is daar steeds ‘n groot hoeveelheid PFAs wat die organisasie verlaat binne die eerste 36 maande van aanstelling. Die huidige studie se doelwit was om die nie-vergoedingsvoorspellers van uitbranding onder PFAs, asook hulle intensies om te bedank, te bestudeer, om sodoende lig te werp op die hoë omset onder PFAs. Spesifieke konstrukte wat nie noodwendig deur die organisasie bestudeer sou word nie, is geïdentifiseer in ‘n loodsstudie. Hierdie konstrukte is emosionele arbeid, selfbekwaamheid, tyd verloor op nieverkoopsaktiwiteite, en ondersteuning deur die lynbestuurder. Hierdie konstrukte se verwantskap met uitbranding en intensies om die organisasie te verlaat, is bestudeer in die huidige studie. ‘n Gerieflikheidsteekproef van 608 PFAs vanuit een versekeringsmaatskappy is genader vir deelname aan die huidige studie. Een honderd twee-en-twintig (122) respondente het hul vraelyste voltooi en ingedien. Die beskrywende statistiek van die steekproef het ‘n gemiddelde ouderdom van 35 jaar getoon (verspreidingswydte 21 tot 61 jaar), met 66% manlik en 34% vroulik, en ‘n rasseverspreiding van 64% blank, 19% swart, 10% kleurling en 7% Indiër respondente. Oor die algemeen was die beskrywende statistiek ‘n aanvaarbare tot goeie verteenwoordiging van die totale populasie. Beide kwantitatiewe asook kwalitatiewe navorsingsmetodes is gebruik in hierdie studie. ‘n Analise van die kwalitatiewe data het die rol van die konstrukte wat vir insluiting gekies is, bevestig, en addisionele bronne van werkstres is geïdentifiseer. Die Pearson korrelasie-analises is gebruik om die vraelysdata te analiseer, gevolg deur stapsgewyse meervoudige regressie-ontledings met werksuitbranding, kliëntuitbranding en intensie om te bedank as afhanklike veranderlikes, en die oorblywende konstrukte as voorspellers. Beide die metingsmodel en die strukturele model is getoets, albei het aanvaarbare pasgehalte van die model opgelewer. Uit al die bogenoemde analises is beduidende verbande tussen die veranderlikes tyd verloor op nie-verkoopsaktiwiteite, uitbranding, en intensie om te bedank; selfbekwaamheid, uitbranding en intensie om te bedank; asook uibranding en intensie om te bedank gevind. Gevolgtrekkings is gemaak vanuit die bevindinge en voorstelle is gemaak met die oog op verdere navorsing, sowel as met betrekking tot die bestuur van uitbranding en intensie om te bedank in die verkoopsomgewing.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This paper investigates fund manager performance in order to determine whether some fund managers are better than others. The focus of the paper is to examine if fund performance is related to the characteristics of fund managers that may indicate ability, knowledge, or effort. The data consists of South African regulated unit trust growth and growth-and-income funds investigated over a seven-year period, and comprehensive and detailed information on the various fund managers supplied by the MoneyMate database from the University of Stellenbosch. The research objective has been to find out whether fund manager characteristics help explain fund performance and risk. Stepwise regression analysis as the research methodology is applied, where the two dependent variables, performance and risk, are regressed on the eight independent variables; manager age, tenure of the manager with the fund, years of education, whether the manager hold a MBA or CA/CFA qualification, management team size, fund age and fund objective. The findings of the study are highly significant and show that fund performance and risk are impacted upon by managers' qualifications. One can expect better risk-adjusted performance from a fund manager who holds a CA/CFA and/or MBA qualification. Results show that these managers outperform managers without these qualifications.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek fondsbestuurder prestasie met die doel om te bepaal of sommige bestuurders beter is as ander. Die fokus van die studie ondersoek of fondsprestasie verband hou met die eienskappe van fondsbestuurders. Die data bestaan uit Suid-Afrikaanse effektetrust groei en groei-en-inkomste fondse bestudeer oor 'n periode van sewe jaar, en omvattende besonderhede van die fondsbestuurders soos verskaf deur die MoneyMate databasis van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch. Die doel van die navorsing is om bewyse te vind wat mag aandui dat fondsbestuurdereienskappe wel fondsprestasie en risiko's kan beïnvloed en verduidelik. Die metode van stapsgewyse regressie word toegepas, waar die impak van die agt onafhanklike veranderlikes (ouderdom van die fondsbestuurder, sy jare by die fonds, sy aantal jare van tersiêre onderrig, of die bestuurder 'n MBA of CA/CFA kwalifikasie besit, spangrootte, ouderdom van die fonds en die fonds se doelstelling) op die twee afhanklike veranderlikes (prestasie en risiko) ondersoek word. Die bevindinge van die studie is hoogs betekenisvol en dui daarop dat 'n fonds se prestasie en risiko's wel beïnvloed word deur die kwalifikasies van die fondsbestuurder. Beter risiko aangepaste prestasies kan verwag word van bestuurders wat 'n MBA en/of CA/CFA kwalifikasie besit. Die resultate toon wel dat fonds bestuurders ander bestuurders uitpresteer wat nie daardie kwalifikasie besit nie.

This thesis looks at how changes in the Australian Federal Government’s economic policy have affected career advice practices in New South Wales Secondary Schools. From 1927 – 75, career advice practices were primarily used to assist the nation in the process of industrialisation. However, from 1975 – 96 careers advice in schools has become increasingly marginalised as a result of the professionalisation of the role during the 1970s. The process of professionalisation had the effect of estranging Careers Advisers from the educational establishment and reducing their utility in facilitating the economic ambitions of the Federal Government.

Dall, Natalie. "Perceptions of financial counselling in Western Australia." Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 1996. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/934.

Full text
Abstract:
The development of financial counselling in Australia during the past decade has been complex and fragmented. Financial counselling and rural counselling services within Western Australia are funded from a range of government, non-government and church based groups. This has contributed to problems in the identification of basic definitions of the need for services, the role of the financial counsellor and service models or functions. The failure to define the role of the financial counsellor and the needs to be addressed by financial counselling services, "appears to be the most important historic weakness in the field." (Wyse et al., 1990, p.2). A consequence of the initial failure to define the role of the financial counsellor has meant that definitions have evolved retrospectively rather than in a planned fashion in response to need. This conflict and confusion over the role of financial counsellors has created a situation where financial counsellors may not have a shared philosophy of their profession. Central to the debate has been the lack of clarification of the role of financial counsellors and the relative priorities of casework, community education and policy action. Casework and advocacy on behalf of clients have typically been regarded by funding bodies as the most important responsibilities, since casework statistics provide quantitative accountability for public funds. (Wyse et al., 1990, p.2). A study conducted by Ryan (1990) suggested that different ideological beliefs among financial counsellors would have a significant effect on their casework practice. Different ideologies may result in counsellors assessing cases differently and recommending different courses of action to clients. Other implications of counsellors having different ideologies are that they may have different perceptions of client problems and the role they adopt in assisting clients. (Ryan, 1990, p.31). It was thought that financial counsellors would have different views of the purpose of their work and the outcomes they hope to achieve as a consequence of being recruited from a wide range of different educational and experiential backgrounds. Other factors such as the diverse range of prior experiences, lack of uniform training, different work locations and available resources were suggested as being likely to influence the perceptions that financial counsellors have of their work. Individual counsellors may be working from very different paradigms making it difficult to identify a clear philosophy for financial counselling as a profession. The study was designed to investigate the perceptions of financial counselling in Western Australia by conducting in-depth interviews with financial counsellors and their clients. The interviews were analysed and interpreted to draw conclusions about the relationships between the perceptions of financial counsellors and their clients regarding the intended and actual functions of financial counsellors in meeting client needs. The responses from both financial counsellors and clients indicate that perceptions of the role of the financial counsellor, outcomes and strategies used to achieve outcomes are consistent. The results of this study indicate that financial counsellors are in fact working toward similar goals and have similar views of their work. The findings do not support the literature and anecdotal evidence which suggests that financial counsellors may not share the same philosophy of their profession. It is anticipated that the results of this study will assist in the development off future policies, practices and training programs for financial counsellors in Western Australia.

Full text
Abstract:
Over the past 10 years, there have been many financial scandals in the financial advice industry, which has caused substantial losses for investors. Large wealth institutions controlled by major Australian banks have significantly contributed to investor losses by promoting their products which were not always in the best interests of clients (Steen, 2016). Wealth institutions that manufacture financial products can subsidise the cost of the delivery of financial advice to customers, providing a strengthened competitive position against small privately-owned financial advice providers (North, 2015). The aim of this study was to explore whether the privately-owned financial planning sector is perceived by advisers to be growing or declining, and the main reasons for that growth or decline. To explore the views, attitudes and motivations of privately-owned financial planning practices, the study undertook a qualitative approach using an exploratory research design. The research design involved the recruitment of 51 privately-owned financial planning practice owners who were personally interviewed in the place of work, or via phone where on-site interviews were not possible. The interview questions were predominately semi-structured, with nine structured questions also included to enable a statistical analysis to verify the difference in performance between independent and non-independent advisers. The study found a strong argument that the privately-owned financial planning sector is in decline and will struggle to have any significant growth in the future. Due to the lack of future investment for expansion purposes, the low levels of new entrants, the inability to provide affordable advice, inadequate business planning, limited succession planning and the new regulatory requirements, the sector has significant challenges to overcome to achieve sustained future growth. However, the study found independent privately-owned advisers have a competitive advantage in the industry due to their low numbers, increased public awareness and the lack of adviser transition to full independence. The study has made a substantial contribution to the literature and the knowledge base of the Australian financial planning industry. The study identified the existing and expected business challenges of small Australian financial planning businesses, including the financial and strategic positioning for future growth. The study discovered the main reasons for the growth and decline of revenue and the direct effect differentiation of service and business planning have on revenue growth. Marketing strategies that can be used to increase clientele were also identified. Furthermore, the study identified a substantial lack of human, managerial, marketing and operational resources in small financial planning businesses. The study found that, while there is a high level of technological adaption, businesses were subject to a high level of key management risk and were not prepared for the potential threat of fintech such as robo-advice. Additionally, owners are reticent to invest in their business, with 93.5% of businesses not having a succession plan. Finally, the study has addressed the gap in the academic literature about why financial advisers are not transitioning to independent advice providers, as life-insurance commissions remain a necessity.

Abstract:
Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>Expanding business operations and exploring additional sources of revenue to ensure sustainability and longevity are some of the key business drivers of any organisation. These drivers have many organisations consider the opportunity of expanding business operations to foreign territories. Some of the major challenges when expanding business operations to new territories are those of competing against local brands in the same industry or introducing a whole new product or service to a new market. It therefore seems much of a demand versus supply consideration when organisations do decide to venture to new territories. Introducing a whole new product or service to a new market addresses the demand issue based on the premise that a need for this product or service exists. The existence of competition, not only directly with industry related brands but also other brands, addresses the supply of the particular product or service. This demand and supply dynamic forms the basis of this research paper. Given this context, considering the complexities of a new market from both an internal business and external industry point of view, is critical in establishing if an opportunity set exists in this new potential market which can be exploited. Once the opportunity set has been confirmed, organisations can shift their focus to the intended business and brand management strategy to be followed when entering this new market. Product and service organisations do, however, face many different challenges when entering new markets. One of the primary differences is that of tangibility of their respective offerings. This complexity leaves services organisations with few instruments to leverage in competing against product providers for the share of wallet of the consumer. As consumers associated with products and services do not have a tangible product per se, the emphasis is placed on the brand of services organisations as the associative connection from a consumer point of view. Given the two mentioned concepts of entering new markets and different challenges which product and service providers face when doing so, the contextual environment of this study is set in the Financial Services Industry. This study explores the key considerations that financial services organisations should be cognisant of, from a branding point of view, when entering new markets.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis presents three essays, with the first two focusing on the insider role of M&A advisors and the effectiveness of insider trading rule, while the third essay looks into the effects of product market competition on corporate cash holdings. The main hypothesis of the first and second essay is that the advisory banks that are privy to non-public deal information might have high motivation to exploit this privileged information by taking a position in a takeover target ahead of a deal and realise an excess return upon deal announcement. This motivation for and act of “insider trading” might be attenuated by the insider trading rules Rule10b5-1 and Rule10b5-2, which were released in 2000.The first essay examines the presence of acquiror advisors’ holdings in targets and their trading strategy on such holdings before deal announcement. Using an aggregate level of stake-holding in the target firm by a financial conglomerate/brands with which the advisor to the acquiror is affiliated, we find that advisory brands start to take and accumulate holdings in targets at least seven quarters before deal announcement through to announcement quarter. The stake-holding is significantly larger than that of a non-advisory brand group that is defined. We argue that these results imply the direct link between advisory holdings, advisor identity and the strong intentions of trading on private deal information. However, this tendency is markedly attenuated in the post-rule period after 2000. This change in advisory brand trading strategy on target stocks ahead of a deal with the passage of rules suggests a positive deterrence effect of the insider trading rule. In the second essay, we investigate the profitability of this trading strategy by advisory brands to acquirors taking stake in targets ahead of a deal. Results suggest that both the level and the build-up (increase) of an advisory stake between the last two quarters immediately preceding deal announcement are positively related to the target return. These results are consistent with the view that advisory brands trade on their privileged deal information by taking and increasing holdings in targets ahead of deals to profit from the increase in target share price. In our sub-period analysis, results suggest that all the coefficients become much smaller and insignificant for the post-rule period after 2000. This again indicates a strongly positive deterrent effect of regulation, which further confirms the conclusion of the first essay. The third essay is related to both the static and dynamic effect of product market competition on firm cash holdings. We find that the intensity of product market competition measured by product similarity from Hoberg and Phillips (2010, 2011) has a significant positive effect on firm cash holdings, after controlling for other measures including the Industry Herfindahl Index and industry fluidity. This suggests that firms in a more competitive industry reserve more cash as their war chest or preemptive tool against competitors. Further, Vector Autoregression (VAR) and analyses of shock show that when there is a sudden increase in product similarity/competition level (shock), firms use cash to fight off competition, leading to a decrease in cash holdings.

Abstract:
Small business has often been referred to as the “engine driving the economy”. This description highlights the significance of small business to the economy of most countries. But what about the smallest of these organisations; those businesses with fewer than five employees? These businesses, termed micro businesses, form a large part of our economy and are sometimes the starting point for larger business and sometimes provide a long term, alternate business structure. This type of business has special needs and characteristics and is often neglected in the management literature. The nature and diversity of these businesses prompted an interest in discovering how they operate, but more specifically how they are managed and how the management capabilities are developed in these businesses. Micro businesses are formed for a variety of reasons. They are often an opportunity for a professional or tradesperson to pursue their work without the perceived constraints of working in a larger organisation. Sometimes they result from an opportunity to create and test a new idea in the marketplace, or the chance to be ones’ own boss, or as a start up for a bigger organisation in the future. The wide variety of entry points means that the level of managerial capability tends to be quite diverse. The emphasis on ‘doing the business’ may mean that these micro business owners are skilled in their ability to produce, but not necessarily in their ability to manage the business and the staff. The aim of this study was to explore how these business owners developed their managerial capabilities. The study was based around a model proposed by Devins, Gold, Johnson and Holden (2005) that suggested that there are three main groups that micro business managers tend to seek out to support their development. These groups are close and important others, who may have an interest in the business but may or may not be involved in the business. This would include people like family members, business partners, suppliers etc. The second group includes professional advisers, such as accountant, lawyers and bank managers. The third group covers training providers. Micro business includes such a diverse variety of businesses that it makes sense that the level of managerial capability and the sources used to improve this would vary greatly. It is this variety that prompted the study and also the methodology chosen. As this was exploratory in nature and the aim was not to develop a definitive answer nor a representative answer to this question of management development, but to gain insight into this sector, a qualitative case study approach was taken. Twelve very different micro businesses were chosen to examine. The case study was based on semi structured interviews with the business owner. The aim was to identify how they perceived their managerial capabilities and where they sought support in making decisions and developing their managerial capacity. The series of interviews allowed respondents to share freely their views and a rich source of information was produced. Traditionally, governments and private providers have poured significant funds into providing training programs for micro and small business to enhance their management capacity, but contrary to these traditional practices, the micro business owners interviewed were not active users of any of these training mechanisms. The analysis confirmed what many intuitively know, and that is that the close important others are the most trusted and most often turned to source of support by micro business. The study also indicated that professional advisers, such as accountants and bank managers were often viewed as worthwhile support agents. This is an important area to understand as it indicates that the provision of traditional training programs for micro business and small business may not be the most effective method for developing management capabilities in these businesses. This suggests that continuing to do the same thing, may be ineffective. It indicates that the role of professional advisers may need to be broadened to align better with the provision of training and support, and importantly that alternate types of support may be needed such as strong mentoring programs.

This study takes a close look at the characteristics of the feedback received by PhD candidates and explores how they then interpret that feedback. Over 200 PhD candidates participated in the study by providing data over a six month period using a custom-built Internet-interfaced database. Each candidate completed a self-concept test both at the beginning and again at the end of this period. In between, they completed an 'e-diary' in which they recorded data about every feedback interaction that they experienced over the six months. From the data collected, the Researcher developed a model showing how feedback is processed and the effect that this process has on PhD candidates.

Full text
Abstract:
As Noongar people, we have a strong spiritual connection to boodjar, or Country, which relates to everything within landscapes that give us meaning and purpose. It is our law and culture to care for the natural environment and places of significance. Performing on-Country is a key part of maintaining it. Country is everything—weather, land, sea, sky, flora, fauna, groundwater—and song, dance, and Country are fundamentally connected; expressing Country through performance is part of Country as a living thing. In a Noongar context, it is not just “performance” in the sense of a fiction or purely symbolic act; Noongar performance makes manifest and maintains ever-present relationships that sustain Country, humans, and biota. However, along with other factors, the increasing irregularity and restriction of longstanding Noongar performance practices directly coincides with increased environmental degradation. In response, Aboriginal people signal the pressing need to restore languages and performance traditions decimated by the settler colonial project. Therefore, there is a need to better understand and appreciate how Aboriginal performance cultures contribute to humanity’s ability to coexist with nature. This thesis explores the development of a series of novel Noongar dances which represent spiritual, cultural, and hence environmental affective values associated with Country, with a view to re-invigorating both cultural practice and links to Country itself, for Noongar and non-Noongar. My experience as a Noongar dancer, actor, drama teacher and cultural tour guide has led me to ask the following questions that I personally feel need to be answered. How can we as Noongar performers express our understandings of Country within movement? What kind of dances can we create for species and landscapes that are endangered on-Country and within performance traditions? And how can we share this, so to pass on and sustain across generations and communities for a deeper connection to Country? The development of these dances was supported by a steering committee of Noongar elders who came from Noongar boodjar and hence were able to give cultural advice, guidance, authority; and further supplemented and supported by experts in the humanities and in environmental science and ethics from the local region. With the importance of recreating these Noongar dances within Country we reached out to the community to be involved and to participate in this amazing journey of development and discovery towards forming an ensemble to perform these new dances within Noongar country, which came to be known as the Mayakeniny “sound dancing” Dancer Group. Our knowledge has been passed down from generation to generation through stories, song, language, dance, and art. Although settler-colonial practices have adversely impacted maintenance of this knowledge, as Noongar people we still have a responsibility to look after Country. In the past, Noongar performance repertoire helped us fulfill this responsibility. Given the considerable changes to Country and developments in technology from the early colonial period onwards, it is important to consider how we can create on-Country performances today that reach contemporary Noongar and non-Noongar audiences in meaningful and lasting ways.

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on Margaret Thatcher's involvement in policy making in Northern Ireland in the period building up to the Anglo-Irish Agreement (AIA) of November 1985. The findings in this research are surprising: that Thatcher's involvement in Northern Ireland, though intermittent, was much greater than has previously been appreciated, and without this involvement there could have been no AIA. Although we already know a lot from the scholarly research on Thatcher and Northern Ireland, the literatures are somewhat disconnected resulting in a distinct gap in the literature of studies looking at Thatcher's role in Northern Ireland matters. The rolling programme of archival releases under the 30-year rule provides an opportunity to reassess, and revise, what we know already about Thatcher and Northern Ireland in light of the new empirical evidence. This thesis unveils new information which transforms our view of Thatcher and provides new answers to existing questions on Northern Ireland. It fills in the gaps from during this period by focusing on the roles of the Prime Minister and Secretaries of State for Northern Ireland in greater depth than ever before. It will make a significant contribution to our knowledge by bringing new insights into Thatcher's relationship with the Irish Taoiseach, and her determination to do something about Northern Ireland, as well as her relationship with the Secretaries of State for Northern Ireland and key advisors such as the Cabinet Secretary Robert Armstrong. The primary research question that this thesis answers is 'To what extent was Margaret Thatcher involved in policy making in Northern Ireland, specifically from 1979 until 1985, and what was the impact of this?' In order to answer this question, two sub-research questions will also be addressed along the way. The first sub-research question relates to Thatcher as Prime Minister and her style of leadership. For the first time we have key respondent interviews with the full archival record to deepen and enrichen our understanding of the role of the key actors. This will help us to understand what sort of a leader Thatcher was - autocratic and ideological or pragmatic. The second sub-research question relates to Thatcher as Prime Minister and ministerial relations. To understand Thatcher we have to look at her Secretaries of State for Northern Ireland. We can learn about her leadership in Northern Ireland through these relationships, allowing an emerging picture of Thatcher to build up over subsequent chapters in this thesis. In order to be able to answer these questions, this thesis combines rigorous archival research, using newly released government archives under the thirty year rule, and an extensive programme of elite interviews with insights drawn from a political science literature on the core executive. This allowed me to construct a robust historical narrative informed by inter-disciplinary insights, bringing the Thatcher and Northern Ireland literature together in a way which has not been done before.

Aux lendemains des indépendances, les Etats de l’Afrique de l’Ouest ont constitués entre eux des organisations d’intégration économique dans le but de favoriser leur développement économique et social.Ces organisations conçues pour la plupart à partir du modèle Européen dispose d’une personnalité juridique autonome et d’un corps de règles propres ayant vocation à s’insérer de façon uniforme dans l’ordre juridique interne des différents Etats membres.

This Master Thesis is the research done in the country of Rwanda. The project leads to study the climate of this country in order to establish whether this climate could be used to produce energy from air and to implement the first wind turbine for serving the nation.   After an introduction about the historical background of wind power, the thesis work deals with assessment of wind energy potential of Rwanda in focusing of the most suitable place for wind power plants. The best location with annual mean wind speed, the rate of use of turbine with hub height for an annual production per year, the mean wind speeds for 6 sites of Rwanda based on ECMWF for climatic data for one year at relief of altitude of 100m and coordinates are reported too.   The result of energy produced and calculations were done based on power hitting wind turbine generator in order to calculate Kinetic energy and power available at the best location to the measurement over the period of 12 months, that could be hoped for long term.   With help of logarithmic law, where wind speed usually increases with increasing in elevation and the desired wind speeds at all 6 sites were used. The annual energy production was taken into account at the best site with desired wind speed at the initial cost of turbine as well as the cost of energy (COE).However, with comparison of the tariff of EWSA, the price of Wind designed in this Research per kWh is cheaper and suitable for people of Rwanda.<br><p>I WISH TO PUBLISH MY THESIS</p>
