Although there is no definitive clinical definition for disordered eating, this term is often used among the eating disorder treatment community to describe various abnormal eating behaviors that do not yet fit the criteria for an eating disorder. Some believe that disordered eating, if not treated, can lead to eating disorders; however, not every individual with a disordered eating pattern will develop a clinical eating disorder. Disordered eating occurs when individuals eat for other reasons than hunger and nourishment. Individuals with disordered eating eat when they are bored, eat out of stress, eat to cover up their emotions, skip meals, engage in binging and purging behaviors on an irregular or limited basis, may skip out on major food groups, or eat the same thing every day.

Collective staffing is a collaborative activity to staff more than one position within, among and across organizations and departments, region or regions. It represents a strategic approach where managers agree on common merit criteria, on the definition of the merit criteria, and on the degree of skill required for each position. The process requires the establishment of pools of individuals who have had some degree of assessment completed in order to be included in the pool. These individuals will then be finally assessed against the merit criteria established for each position being staffed.

  • Citizenship and Immigration
CONT

A person is a refugee within the meaning of the 1951 Convention as soon as he fulfils the criteria contained in the definition. This would necessarily occur prior to the time at which his refugee status is formally determined. Recognition of his refugee status does not therefore make him a refugee but declares him to be one. He does not become a refugee because of recognition, but is recognized because he is a refugee.

OBS

If the applicant is recognized as a refugee, he should be informed accordingly and issued with documentation certifying his refugee status.

OBS

If, on the other hand, an applicant, without good reason, insists on retaining a valid passport of a country of whose protection he is allegedly unwilling to avail himself, this may cast doubt on the validity of his claim to have well-founded fear. Once recognized, a refugee should not normally retain his national passport.

Le statut de réfugié n'est pas réservé aux personnes qui sont membres d'un groupe politique, religieux ou d'autre groupe minoritaire. Bien que les membres de groupes minoritaires soient en pratique plus fréquemment exposés au risque d'être persécutés que ne le sont les personnes qui font partie de populations majoritaires, la seule exigence pour la reconnaissance du statut de réfugié est la démonstration qu'un motif conventionnel représente un facteur contribuant au risque d'être persécuté.

Ethical consumption, also known as socially responsible consumption, is a trend where consumers ask questions about the company that produced the goods -- choosing to patronize the companies which have "positive" profiles and avoiding those with "negative" profiles.

OBS

The very name of "ethical consumption" is still an open issue, and varies from ethical consumption to consumption in solidarity, responsible consumption, and fair consumption.... The idea of "ethical consumption" should initially be based on a definition of ethics. For those who understand the concept of Ethics as the definition of criteria to identify Good and Evil, it is important for the concept of Ethical Consumption to include another idea of consumption that is not based on individualism. The word that best defines this relationship with the rest of the world is "solidarity. "It qualifies it and defines the importance of others in the ethical values on which consumption is based. In this case we are talking about "ethical consumption in solidarity. "There is also a simplified version called "consumption in solidarity", which appears in the literature referring to consumption that not only considers our personal welfare but also considers general welfare. This is a consumption in which production is completed, generating an impact on the ecosystem and society in general. Under this idea, the choice of type of consumption can benefit or hinder the creation or maintenance of the productive jobs in a specific society, the preservation of ecosystems and the promotion of the general welfare of communities, countries and the entire planet. "Responsible consumption"(an expression used in Europe, particularly in France), appears where there is an awareness of the power of consumers, which become economic units with an important role to play, just as important as businesses and market regulatory boards. It implies an idea of economy that wishes to provide answers to citizens who belong to an economic and political world that considers man as a mere consumer. In this respect, consuming in a different way represents paying attention to what the money that we give to buy goods and services is financing, thus bringing economic pressure to bear from below that compensates

CONT

The CSI [Clark Sustainability Initiative] shall be approached as a process of continuous learning and innovation open to all members of the university community. The concepts and means of measuring "sustainability" and "socially and ecologically responsible consumption practices" shall be subject to regular reassessment and reconsideration in light of new experiences and understandings.
