Resumen
The Bushlight program can be considered an excellent example of a program that provides stand-alone genset/photovoltaic (PV) systems to Remote Indigenous communities. A reduction in system costs, by the application of Diversity Factors, would further Bushlight's ability to provide these energy supply solutions. Diversity is the concept that the Electricity Use for a group of similar Households will be less than the sum of the Electricity Use for each individual Household. Diversity Factors are the ratio of this diversity. Diversity Factors for commercial application have been developed thro

This thesis comprises an attempt to re-evaluate the experience and the survival of the indigenous Christian population of al-Andalus. It is a response to two problematic aspects of the historiography, whose authority has only recently begun to be questioned: first, the inordinate focus upon the polemical and problematic mid-ninth-century Cordoban hagiography and apologetic of Eulogius and Paul Albar, whose prejudiced vision has not only been accepted as a source of social history, but also projected onto all Andalusī Christianity to support the second – the assertion that conversion happened e

Governing water systems to address issues of safety, security and sustainability and to build resilient communities is a key policy focus globally, as climate change and human impacts on freshwater resources are being increasingly felt. Yet, in remote Indigenous community contexts, Western management systems tend to focus on technical and engineering aspects of water services, often excluding Indigenous people from decisions about their own water resources. Unsustainable and inadequate water services have resulted that constrain local economic development and contribute to poor health and high

Today, much of the agricultural production and food security (FS) in developing countries relies on women. They play critical roles in the availability, access and utilization of food at household and community levels. Women’s roles, however, are underestimated and constrained by restricted access to resources, services and labour market opportunities. Despite their fundamental position in global FS, the majority of undernourished people are women and girls.

Resumen
In 2007, the government of the Philippines adopted a conditional cash transfer (CCT) program that provides social assistance to the country’s poorest households with attached conditions that the beneficiaries invest the cash into the health and education of their children, in line with the government’s attempt to break the cycle of intergenerational of poverty. This thesis focuses on the experiences of two remote indigenous people’s communities in the Philippines: the Pala’wan s and Salagsegs as beneficiaries of the CCT program. The thesis is based on four months of ethnographic case study

Resumen
A meiofauna é, atualmente, considerada como um grupo de organismos com elevado potencial para a monitorização de eventuais efeitos ecológicos resultantes de perturbações naturais e/ou antropogénicas nos ecossistemas aquáticos. A presença do bivalve não-indígena R. philippinarum no estuário do Tejo apresentou uma oportunidade para avaliar o uso das comunidades da meiofauna, particularmente os nematodes, como bioindicadores que permitam avaliar perturbações provocadas pela presença de uma espécie alóctone. O principal objetivo desta investigação foi verificar as respostas estruturais e funcionai

Resumen
This research aims to draw attention to the way government and Indigenous groups engage in community settings and explores the potential of this sphere of political activity as a source of innovation and reform. Indigenous people have many good ideas about managing crime and justice in their communities, but what happens to those ideas when they are presented to an agency of the criminal justice system? To investigate the fate of Indigenous ideas and how they might be progressed through western bureaucracies, I conducted four case studies – two in New Zealand and two in the Australian state of
