ihrd employees database: Achieving Organizational Excellence Flevy Lasrado, 2018-05-01 This book bridges two essential aspects of assessing and achieving business excellence in 21st-century organizations. The author argues that transnational companies face a twofold challenge: managing global knowledge networks and multicultural project teams on the one hand; and interacting and collaborating across boundaries using global communication technologies, on the other. The author also argues that this dual challenge calls for the creation of a business excellence program that fits and thrives within these multicultural environments. In response, he reviews corporate practices in quality management and business excellence frameworks that have been extensively used on a transnational scale to drive organizational performance. The book approaches quality management as an element that is no longer a choice, but has now become a necessity if companies want to compete in highly globalized environments. |

ihrd employees database: HIV/AIDS Treatment and Care Irina Eramova, Srdan Matic, Monique Munz, 2007 The WHO Regional Office for Europe has combined its 13 protocols on treatment of and care for people with HIV and AIDS in one volume. The protocols are the cornerstone of the strategic actions that WHO has taken as part of its contribution to achieving the goal of universal access to HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, care and support services. The protocols were specifically developed for the entire WHO European Region. Together, they represent a comprehensive and evidence-based tool that offers health professionals clear and specific advice on diagnosing and managing a wide range of health issues related to HIV/AIDS for adults, adolescents and children, including antiretroviral treatment, the management of opportunistic infections, tuberculosis, hepatitis, injecting drug use, sexual and reproductive health, the prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission, immunization, palliative care and post-exposure prophylaxis.

ihrd employees database: The Reduction of Drug-Related Harm E. C. Buning, E. Drucker, A. Matthews, R. Newcombe, P. A. O'Hare, 2013-10-08 The War on Drugs' has traditionally had total abstinence as its target. The contributors to this book take a new and challenging approach to problem drug use, arguing that abstinence is not the only solution. They believe that existing methods of treatment and control have been inadequate in controlling or improving drug problems and they propose a radical alternative: reducing the harm associated with the use of illicit drugs. International in scope, the book covers a broad range of drugs, and of social and individual problems. The spread of HIV infection, which has been described as a greater threat to individual and public health than drug misuse is also considered. The contributors give an overview of the current theories and practices that have helped to minimise the harmful effects of drugs and describe national and city-level strategies towards drug problems. They also cover the drug policies of several agencies and organisations world-wide, including police, doctors, community groups and local authorities. Concentrating on reducing drug-related harm, this in an important contribtuion to the debate on the future shape of drug control systems. It questions the role and function of existing drug laws and discusses how harm reduction will shape day-to-day work with drug users. Provocative and persuasive, it should be read by all policy-makers and practitioners faced with drugs problems, and will do much to help establish new strategies for dealing with drug use, strategies that minimise rather than exacerbate drug-related harm. |

ihrd employees database: "Nothing about Us Without Us" Ralf Erich Jürgens, 2008 While facing severe marginalization and discrimination that has resulted in epidemics of HIV and hepatitis C, millions of people who use illegal drugs remain largely unrepresented when decisions are made about how to respond to health and other concerns. Nothing About Us Without Us--Greater, Meaningful Involvement of People Who Use Illegal Drugs: A Public Health, Ethical, and Human Rights Imperative, examines why it is important to increase meaningful involvement of people who use (or have used) illegal drugs in the response to HIV and HCV, and explores how this can be done. Two new editions of the report--an international version now available in English, and a Russian language edition focusing on Eastern Europe and Central Asia--were prepared through a consultation process involving hundreds of drug user activists. Though both editions contain new content, they are based on a similar project by the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network in 2005 in Canada, which was funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada. The reports also include a Manifesto prepared by people who use drugs and endorsed by the International Network of People Who Use Drugs. The Manifesto is a declaration affirming that people who use drugs have a say in decisions affecting their lives, and lists a set of demands, including recognition, funding, support, and involvement in efforts on behalf of drug users. Nothing About Us Without Us is jointly published by the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network, the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, and the Open Society Institute, with additional financial support from the government of Canada through the Canadian International Development Agency.--Publisher description |

ihrd employees database: Vegan Revolution Richard Schwartz, 2020-09-29 For over four decades, Richard Schwartz has engaged with two ethically rich ways of living that, as he charts in this book, he came to appreciate in middle age: Judaism and veganism. Having been born into a secular Jewish family, it was his marriage and an increasing commitment to social justice that propelled him to study and rediscover the essence of his Jewish faith. That sense of social justice further raised his awareness of the environmental movement, and, ultimately, to animal rights and veganism. In Vegan Revolution: Saving Our World, Revitalizing Judaism, Schwartz shows how, now perhaps more than ever, veganism offers a pathway for all of us of whatever faith (or no faith) to reduce hunger, conserve the environment, save water, reinstitute justice, and care for animals and the Earth. It is no coincidence, as Schwartz demonstrates, that many of these ideas are mandates in Jewish scripture, and that reincorporating a care for the world (tikkun olam) can itself reinvigorate the spirit of a faith and galvanize its practitioners to act. |
ihrd employees database: Mid-career Faculty Anita G. Welch, Jocelyn E. Bolin, Jocelyn H. Bolin, Daniel Reardon, 2019 At a time when higher education institutions in the United States are the subject of increased media scrutiny and nearly continuous loss of funding by resource-strapped state legislatures, a greater understanding of higher education's bulwark resource--mid-career research and teaching faculty--is more important than ever. Faculty at mid-career comprise the largest segment of academia. For some, this is a time of significant productivity and creativity, yet for others, it is a time of disillusionment and stagnation. Revealing impediments and pathways to faculty job satisfaction and productivity will strengthen higher education institutions by protecting, fostering, and maintaining this vital workforce. In this collection we will explore the lives of mid-career faculty as our authors uncover the complexities in this stage of professional life and discuss support systems for the transition into this period of faculties' academic careers.Mid-Career Faculty: Trends, Barriers, and Possibilitiesis designed for faculty leaders, administration, policymakers, and anyone concerned with the future of higher education. This text offers an examination into an often overlooked period of academic life, that of post-tenure mid-career faculty. Therefore, the aim of this text is to deepen our understanding of the lives of mid-career faculty, to identify barriers that impede job advancement and satisfaction, and to offer suggestions for changes to current policy and practice in higher education.Contributors are: Joyce Alexander, Michael Bernard-Donals, Pradeep Bhardwaj, Kimberly Buch, Javier Cavazos, Jay R.

ihrd employees database: Open Society Reforming Global Capitalism Reconsidered George Soros, 2000-11-10 George Soros's The Crisis of Global Capitalism became an international bestseller and an instant classic; a must read for anyone concerned with the complex market forces that rule our global economy and create both prosperity and instability. Now, in Open Society, Soros takes a new and provocative look at the arguments he made in that book, incorporating the latest global economic and political developments into his analysis. He shows how our economic and political arrangements are out of sync. Recognizing that our existing institutions are under the sway of sovereign states, he proposes an open society alliance with the dual purpose of fostering open societies in individual countries and laying the groundwork for a global open society. In leading up to his inspiring vision, Soros presents an iconoclastic view of the world that has guided him both in making money and spending it on his network of Open Society Foundations. This book sums up the life's work of an exceptional individual. George Soros is the best fund manager in history, a stateless statesman, and an original thinker. |
