Networking methods and the needs for competence demand flexibility and adaptability of the education systems. This text argues that every country's authority should promote networking throughout the education process in order to create a suitable environment for life-long learning.
Providing connectivity to remote academic and research institutions is a challenge. One of the challenges of the book is to go beyond the physical (the mountains) of the Caucasus and the political barriers in the region. The objectives of the book are: to give the opportunity to network managers and policy makers to meet physically and exchange views on the networking situation in their region; the help the managers define the needs of the region and the possible areas of co-operation; and to provide managers with the proper information and expertise for planning projects in the area in the future.
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
