    Observations on the concept of the aquapelago occasioned by researching the Maldives
    (University of Westminster, 2017) Bremner, Lindsay
    In my recent work on the Maldives (Bremner, 2016), I drew on Hayward’s notion of the aquapelago (Hayward 2012a, 2012b) to theorise the Maldives and to develop a new metageographical concept for architecture in today’s globalised world. In this short contribution to Shima debates, I will highlight my observations on the Maldives and the concept of the aquapelago occasioned by this work.

    History and Philosophy of Nursing
    (Faculty of Health Sciences, 1999-09-01) އާޝިޔަތު ރަޝީދު; Rasheed, Ashiyath
    It could be claimed that nursing is one of the most challenging and remarkable professions in the country. Maldivians value the humanitarian work of the nurses. Nursing has existed in the Maldives ever since man first inhabited the islands. However professional nursing or modern nursing was introduced in the early nineteen sixties. Nursing education developed at a very rapid rate as compared to education within other professions in the country. The vision of nursing/ midwifery is to provide support and leadership towards the development of socially relevant, sustainable, efficient and high quality health services to meet the health challenges in the Maldives. The philosophy that underpins nursing practice in the Maldives is derived from the culture and the religion along with finer points from philosophies of nursing worldwide.
