Kazakhstan 25 years independence
This year Kazakhstan is celebrating its 25th anniversary as an independent nation. Over the years, Kazakhstan has demonstrated its commitment to multilateralism, global peace-building, security and development, as well as its efficiency as an impartial honest broker working for the common benefit. At the initiative of its founding President, Nursultan Nazarbayev, the country has launched meaningful international processes, including the Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia (CICA) and the triennial Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions. It has also chaired key organisations such as the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), and has been busy promoting valuable global and regional initiatives such as the establishment of a world free from nuclear weapons and the Eurasian Economic Union.In just over two decades, Kazakhstan has managed to become an economic and geopolitical success story.

Kazakhstan är ett stort land – nästan lika stort som hela Västeuropa – vilket gör det till världens nionde största land till arealen, alltså sex gånger större än Sverige. Kazakhstan ligger i mellersta Asien och består till stora delar av stäpp. I landet ligger tre stora saltvattensjöar: Aralsjön, Kaspiska havet och Balchasjsjön – som ligger helt eller delvis i Kazakhstan.
Landskapet har mycket omväxlande vegetation och sträcker sig från de bergiga och tätbefolkade områden i öster till det glest befolkade låglandet i väst. Klimatet är sibiriskt – vilket innebär mycket varma somrar och mycket kalla vintrar – och terrängen består mestadels av stora, tomma stäppområden. Dess breder i huvudsak ut sig över den mellersta delen av landet medan de bördigaste jordarna finns i de södra delarna av landet. Kazakhstan är fortfarande mycket glest befolkat med en total folkmängd på dryga 16 miljoner invånare.

8th World Water Forum, Brasilia 2018 The World Water Forum is the world’s biggest water-related event and is organized by the World Water Council. Its mission is “to promote awareness, build political commitment and trigger action on critical water issues at all levels, to facilitate the efficient conservation, protection, development, planning, management and use of water in all its dimensions on an environmentally sustainable basis for the benefit of all life”. Stockholm Junior Water Prize The Stockholm Junior Water Prize (SJWP), which has Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden as its Patron, gathers imaginative young minds from all over the world, encouraging their continued interest in water and sustainability issues. The competition draws more than 10,000 entries from over 30 countries. On June 6, 2017, the final ceremony of the first Brazilian contest for the SJWP took place in São Paulo. The initiative was organized by the National Youth Parliament for Water and the Brazilian Water Resources Association. At this first edition, projects were received from all regions of Brazil and five of them were selected to participate in the final stage. The winning project was the STAC-IBR: Solution for the treatment of water on cisterns installed in Brazil. The winning team, composed by Beatriz Ruscetto, Matheus Silva and Gabriel Trindade, will represent Brazil in the international final of the SJWP during the 26th edition of the World Water Week Stockholm, which runs from 27th August to 1st September 2017, the world’s leading event on hydric matters. Project summary: The northeast of Brazil is characterized by a semi-arid climate and chronic drought. Public policies have stimulated domestic use of cisterns to store water. However, the quality of collected water can be a threat to people’s health, due to exposure to contaminants. This project developed a device, with low-cost material, to generate chlorine by an electrolysis process from a saline solution. The energy may come from a photovoltaic panel, which makes it an autonomous equipment to perform water treatment. Lab tests affirmed the prototype’s efficiency against cistern’s water contamination.

Nišville Jazz Festival 2017
Nišville Jazz Festival – Brand Art Music
The International Nisville jazz festival is the largest and most-visited jazz festival in Southeastern Europe. The festival is the offical cultural event of the City of Nis (since 2005) and also “the festival of national value”, according to the rankings by Serbian Ministry of Culture in 2010. The importance of the festival was also recognized by Serbian Ministry of Trade and Services, Serbian Chamber of Commerce, as Nisville festival was the winner of the award “The best from Serbia” in 2011. The Tourist Organization of Serbia includes Nišville as its official offer in tourist fairs throughout Europe. In the European Union magazine “New Europe”, published in Brussels, the festival has been reviewed as the “European face of Serbia”.
Since the first edition of the festival in 1995, Nisville has been promoting the multiculturism as the inevitable characteristic of the contemporary jazz music. The festival’s concept is based on presenting the ‘traditional’ jazz forms together with their fusion with the world music tradition, with the emphasis on the music from the Balkans. One of the most famous jazz magazines, the American ‘Downbeat’ values Nisville as the important musical event as the promotion of both the traditional Balkan music and American jazz heritage. According to the magazine, Nisville speciality is the popularizing the blend of the two.
Nišville jаzz festivаl is a public manifestation of Niš, and with a decision of Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia is marked as an event of ”National Importance”. Nišville also gets award ” Best from Serbia” in 2011. Also, Nišville got award ” Tourist Flower ” as the best manifestation in Niš.
Dutch saxophonist Candy Dulfer is going to perform with her band at this year Nisville festival. Candy Dulfer is known around the world for her powerful and highenergy concerts. She collaborates with the biggest artists, performs with her own band across the world in sold-out clubs and on the largest festival stages, received a Grammy Award nomination for her debut album ‘Saxuality’, sold over 2.5 million albums worldwide since, and has had several number 1 hits in the USA.
She rose to fame with high profile collaborations with Dave Stewart (‘Lily was here’) and Prince. With Prince she performed at Jay Leno’s Tonight Show, played dozens of shows in the USA and all over Europe, and recorded on several of his albums. Together with Prince and Beyoncé she performed at the Grammy Awards ceremony.
Grammy winner Patti Austin is going to perform at Nisville 207 opening day – August 10th , exactly at her 67 birthday. The performance will be a tribute to the great Ella Fizgerald because next year marks 100 years since the birth of the great jazz singer.
Patti Austin crosses all musical genres, has made 17 solo albums, and has performed her award-nominated hit songs on the GRAMMYS® and the Oscars. As a performer, songwriter and vocalist she has had a star-studded career that began at the age of four, making her one of the most beloved artists over the world and a mainstay on the Billboard Jazz Albums charts.
Her most recent release, Avant-Gershwin, won Austin the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. As with 2002’s GRAMMY®-nominated homage to Ella Fitzgerald For Ella, Patti worked her magic again with the WDR Big Band on Avant-Gershwin.
A new high water mark for Patti, Avant-Gershwin finds her re-imagining George Gershwin’s complex and fascinating body of work. “You can judge a brilliant piece of music by how you can bend and stretch it,“ said Austin. “I always believed George Gershwin to be avant-garde so I wanted to challenge myself and rework everything melodically and lyrically.” She created unique and personal interpretations with arranger Michael Abene (Lionel Hampton, Buddy Rich, B.B. King), aiming for an operatic but contemporary feeling. Quincy Jones has already said of the album ” ‘Avant-Gershwin’ is a Triumph. Listen Up!”
The ambitious “Overture/Gershwin Medley” leads off the album with a rousing fanfare, bridging together several Gershwin classics and immediately riveting the listener. For “Porgy & Bess,” Austin leaves behind some of the misogynistic messages and portrays a strong female role. She creates “Swanee” in the image of a jazz song, with a hard shuffle. Austin also replaces the conspicuously racist word “mammy” with the word “momma.” The singer follows Ella Fitzgerald’s lead on “Lady Be Good,” making it a rollicking, up-tempo ride. The resulting album is a work that goes beyond the “American Songbook,” into Austin’s bold and profound vision.
As if all of the above wasn’t enough, Patti has teamed up to with the WDR Big Band yet again to record an amazing and innovative tribute to Duke Ellington, now set for release in 2013! Her pop R & B offering entitled “Sound Advice” which has received critical acclaim and continues to amaze audiences in performances. Patti continues to demonstrate her dedication to social issues and the importance of mentoring those in need of inspiring life lessons. (all of us!). When asked to co create an organization dedicated to mentoring, she said “Of course” and the “Over My Shoulder” mentoring foundation was born.(www.Overmyshoulderfoundation.org).

Vinarija Ivanović – Vineyard of Serbia
The wines that we represent are from the Župa family, a small pit of water from the north slopes of Goč, from the south of Kopaonik, and from the west the protector of Župa Željina.
The wine you drink in itself carries the story of the earth from which the vines, the sun that pours the grains, the climate that gives it the smell and the hand of the man who gives it a taste.
The production of grape and wine began with the arrival of the Romans to these parts, and the first Serbian testimonies about the production of wines in Župa are in the Charter of Stefan Nemanja from the 12th century, in which the parish basements and vineyards are donated to Studenica monastery.
