An exchange rate regime which normally insulates a country from the balance of payments effects of capital flows while it maintains a stable exchange rate for current account transactions. Capital transactions are normally required to pass through a "financial" market while current transactions go through an "official" market, though other arrangements are possible. Examples are found in Belgium and the United Kingdom, though France and Italy have experimented with such systems. 3, record 2, English, - dual%20exchange%20market

The Working Group on Cultural Heritage, chaired by Mexico, looks at both tangible and intangible heritage. The role of cultural heritage within the larger cultural and social agenda has been acknowledged by many international organizations. Cultural heritage can be loosely defined as an aspect of cultural diversity, a touchstone of identify, a source of income and employment, and a form of cultural capital. The effective management of cultural heritage can help to reduce poverty, promote social inclusion, and increase civic participation. Intangible heritage, defined as a combination of knowledge systems, customs, traditions and symbols manifested in languages, music, dance and performing arts, festivals, rituals and legends, is of particular interest to INCP member countries. 1, record 10, English, - Working%20Group%20on%20Cultural%20Heritage

Un grand nombre d'organisations internationales ont reconnu le rôle du patrimoine culturel au sein du vaste programme culturel et social. On peut en gros définir le patrimoine culturel comme un aspect de la diversité culturelle, la pierre de touche de l'identité, une source de revenus et d'emploi et une forme de capital culturel. Le gérer efficacement peut contribuer à réduire la pauvreté, à promouvoir l'inclusion sociale et à accroître la participation communautaire. Le patrimoine immatériel, défini comme étant une combinaison de systèmes de connaissances, de coutumes, de traditions et de symboles qui se manifestent par la langue, la musique, la danse et les arts du spectacle, les festivals, les rituels et les légendes, intéresse particulièrement les pays membres du Réseau international sur la politique culturelle (RICP). 1, record 10, French, - Groupe%20de%20travail%20sur%20le%20patrimoine%20culturel

El patrimonio cultural puede ser definido, en términos generales, como un aspecto de la diversidad cultural, la piedra de toque de la identidad, una fuente de ingresos y de empleo, y una forma de capital cultural. La administración efectiva del patrimonio cultural puede ayudar a reducir la pobreza, promover la inclusión social e incrementar la participación cívica.

The growing medium is often soil based, ranging in depth from 20-60 cm(8-24")... Due to the increased soil depth, the plant selection is more diverse and can include trees and shrubs, which allows for the development of a more complex ecosystem.
