Item Maldives’ investment framework for net zero clean(Ministry of Tourism and Environment, Republic of Maldives, 2023-07-01) Ministry of Tourism and Environment, Republic of Maldives; މިނިސްޓްރީ އޮފް ޓޫރިޒަމް އެންޑް އެންވަޔަރަންމަންޓް، ރިޕަބްލިކް އޮފް މޯލްޑިވްސްItem Proceedings of international symposium on islands and oceans : January 22 & 23, 2009(Ocean Policy Research Foundation , 2009-01) Ocean Policy Research Foundation; އޯޝަން ޕޮލިސީ ރިސާރޗް ފައުންޑޭޝަންBased on its philosophy of ‘coexistence between mankind and the ocean,’ the Ocean Policy Research Foundation (OPRF) seeks to address a broad range of ocean problems from a global and comprehensive perspective. We foster interdisciplinary cooperation and build networks among social and natural scientists, work to achieve a balance between ocean use and the need to conserve the marine environment, and carry out a variety of research on the new order taking shape on the oceans. Since 2005, one focus of OPRF’s activities has been to address the problems of the maintenance and revitalisation of Okinotorishima, the southernmost island of the Japanese archipelago, from a technical as well as a legal viewpoint. One of the lessons learned from the process is that we should not treat the issue solely as a domestic one, but invite the consideration of the Pacific Island states, Australia, New Zealand, and international society at large and carry out joint research in the search for solutions. As a result, on January 22-23, 2009, OPRF, with the cooperation of ANCORS and SOPAC, held the ‘International Symposium on Islands and Oceans’ in Tokyo, so as to share and discuss issues related to conservation, revitalisation, and management of islands and surrounding ocean areas. Eighteen experts, both national and international, from various social and natural scientific disciplines gathered and made informative presentations on their current research in order to exchange knowledge and opinions on the development of ocean governance. We are happy to have published the proceedings from the ‘International Symposium on Islands and Oceans.’ They include the collection of all the papers presented by the invited experts as well as general information on the symposium. Each paper has insightful perspectives and unique arguments and is written in a way that enables interdisciplinary discussion, which, we believe, leads to integrated and sustainable approaches for ocean governance. It is OPRF’s pleasure to announce that these proceedings will serve as the basis for our future research on islands and oceans and demonstrate the beginning of our future international collaboration.Item Development effectiveness country brief : Maldives(Asian Development Bank , 2007-10) Asian Development Bank; އޭޝިއަން ޑެވެލޮޕްމަންޓް ބޭންކްItem Annual report 2021(State Electric Company , 2022) State Electric Company; ސްޓޭޓް އިލެކްޓްރިކް ކޮމްޕެނީ; STELCOItem Flora and fauna soil assessment report inside and in the vicinity of the ICZM by using remotely sensed data and field verification(Ministry of Climate Change, Environment and Energy, 2016-10-16) Ministry of Climate Change, Environment and Energy; މިނިސްޓްރީ އޮފް ކްލައިމެޓް ޗޭންޖް، އެންވަޔަރަންމަންޓް އެންޑް އެނާޖީThe Flora and Fauna soil assessment report conducted in and around the Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) was developed to support the initiation of pilot testing of the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting Ecosystem Accounting (SEEA EA) in Laamu Atoll. This report offers an initial assessment of (i) flora and fauna, and (ii) soil within the ICZM area of Laamu Atoll, using ground truth and remote sensing data. Flora assessment consisted of the classification of the ICZM areas by habitat or land cover, namely coral reef, seagrass, mangrove, coastal vegetation or crops utilizing GIS software in conjunction with remotely sensed data from satellite images. The fauna assessment relied on open access data and provided identified species within each protected area. The soil assessment was split into (1) subtidal / underwater areas and (2) land areas, classifying them by sand, rubble, hard substrate and sandy soils / muddy soils respectively. The report includes: An outline of the data and data collection methods, Supporting maps and graphs delineating soils and substrate for each protected area and for the whole of Laamu Atoll.Item Maldives Civil Service : strategic plan 2011–2015(Civil Service Commission, Republic of Maldives , 2011) Civil Service Commission, Republic of Maldives; ސިވިލް ސަރވިސް ކޮމިޝަން, ދިވެހިރާއްޖެItem Maldives parliamentary elections(Commonwealth , 2019-04-19) Commonwealth; ކޮމަންވެލްތުFollowing an invitation from the Chairperson of the Elections Commission of Maldives (EC), the Commonwealth Secretary-General, The Rt Hon.

Though living amidst uncertain times of the post-pandemic era of COVID-19, Maldives has moved beyond along a more strategic path of recovery. Though the development context has changed, with a few steps in advancing gender equality, key gender inequalities that confronted Maldives 8 years ago during the formulation of UNDP Maldives' first Gender Equality Strategy 2016–2018 still remain to a large extent today, with women in Parliament at 4.6%, labour force participation rate of women at 45.6% and for men at 77.1%, and with more women in tertiary education but not entering the labour force. Despite more women being educated at the tertiary level, women still earn less than men by 34% (HIES survey 2019) across the nation. The same survey also shows that the percentage of NEET (18–35) is higher for women at 31% compared to 12% for men in the capital city of Male, while the same parameter is particularly higher in the Atolls of Maldives (50% for women compared to 19% for men), highlighting the particularly challenging circumstances faced by remote communities.Item Strategic plan 2020-2024 : version 2(Maldives Inland Revenue Authority, 2023-02-01) Maldives Inland Revenue Authority; މޯލްޑިވްސް އިންލަންޑް ރެވެނިއު އޮތޯރިޓީWhile the initial plan was set out till 2024, the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 resulted in a significant shift in priorities and an understanding of new risks that needed to be addressed. The restrictions and measures set in place to combat and prevent the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic required MIRA to change how services were rendered to taxpayers and the public while also providing much-needed leniencies to lessen the burden on the public. This further called for MIRA to reprioritize the strategic targets considering the time taken for economic recovery. This plan is the result of the mid-term review of the ongoing strategic plan after diligent analysis and deliberations by the Senior Management of MIRA. This plan focuses on the same six programs, although the strategic priorities under most programs have been revised. MIRA encourages all its employees and stakeholders to take ownership of this plan and to work diligently towards its achievement. This plan has been formulated to support MIRA’s employees and other stakeholders and contribute to the achievement of MIRA’s vision over the next two years.Item Maldives Inland Revenue Authority's operational plan 2024(Maldives Inland Revenue Authority , 2024) Maldives Inland Revenue Authority; މޯލްޑިވްސް އިންލަންޑް ރެވެނިއު އޮތޯރިޓީMIRA’s Operational Plan for 2024 provides a brief overview of the activities planned for the year 2024, carried out by teams across various directorates, namely, Enforcement Directorate, Revenue Operations Directorate, Revenue Service Directorate, and Support Service Directorate. The document also reflects the organization-wide activities planned for the year 2024. The activities listed in the operational plan are derived from the detailed activity plans, which are built on MIRA’s five-year Strategic Plan from 2020 to 2024. As 2024 marks the final year of MIRA’s current Strategic Plan, the primary focus is on achieving the key performance indicators that were planned but not accomplished thus far. The current strategic plan was revised at the beginning of 2023 to adapt to the re-prioritization of strategies following the pandemic.
