he following book cover design brief was submitted to ‘Mercier Press’ as a possible design for their title ‘Fighting
for the Cause’, a ‘Local Irish History’ release which tells ‘the story of each of the unsung heroes from Kerry who fought in 1916, and during the War of Independence and Civil War (1916–23) for the ideal of an independent Irish republic of 32 counties. It provides an intriguing social history of county Kerry and a snapshot of life in Ireland during this time.” For this design I used an image of a butt of a 1916 Irish Volunteers rifle with an inscribed brass plaque added to it, as the focal point in order to intrigue the consumer and entice them to want to explore the title. I then continued the theme by connecting the books title to the main image by replacing the capital f letter with an f shaped handgun. I also tried to create and make use of as much ‘white space’ as possible.

AFRICA Impact of Climate Change
LAKE TURKANA
Lake Turkana touches both Kenya and Ethiopia. It is also known as the Jade Sea, because of its greenish-blue or turquoise colours, which come from algae that rise to the surface in calm weather. 290 kilometres long and 40 kilometres at its widest, Lake Turkana is the world’s largest permanent desert lake, fed by water from the Omo River, which flows from Ethiopia and supplies 90% of its fresh water. Lake Turkana also lacks outflow – its only water loss being through evaporation. With an altitude of only 300 metres above sea-level, it is a hot place – with temperatures often well above 40 degrees Celsius. Many regard the Lake Turkana area as the cradle of humanity due to discoveries of human remains, some dating back at least 3 million years. Lake Turkana is home to about fifty species of fish and hundreds of different birds, including the colourful flamingo. The Lake is also an important flyway passage and stopover for migratory birds. Plankton in the Lake feeds the fish and the birds. Crocodiles are there in abundance and it is also a breeding ground for many types of snakes. In a word, Lake Turkana is an outstanding laboratory for the study of plant, fish, bird, animal and many other forms of life.
The Problem Increasing Temperatures
About 300,000 people live along the shores of Lake Turkana, forming part of an intricate ecosystem. They interact and gain their livelihood from it. Most are from the Turkana ethnic group who eke out a living – either as pastoralists (herding goats, cows, camels and donkeys) or as fishermen (relying on the Lake). An important element, however, is the fact that the waters of the Lake are alkaline (high concentration of carbonate salts) and thus not fit for drinking. In Ethiopia, 200,000 Merille people farm the Omo River Delta area. Covering 1,300 sq kilometres, where the river empties into Lake Turkana, they plant in the floodplain areas after the waters recede, as well as providing pasture for their animals. The international border is far from precise and has long been a matter of violent dispute.
maximum and minimum average temperatures in the area rose between 2 and 3 degrees Celsius between 1967 and 2012. Various explanations are put forward and debated.
However, one thing is clear: the Turkana people cannot be held responsible! But they
are impacted by the results. A Human Rights Watch Report (October 2015) concludes: “… climate change, in combination with existing political, environmental and economic development challenges in Turkana, has had an impact on the Turkana people’s ability to access food, water, health and security”. » the rainy season is much shorter, resulting in less grazing land. » there are more frequent droughts and diminishing herds. »
Migration patterns are changing.
» increased competition for grazing lands and for water, heightening the likelihood of conflict and insecurity.
» Women and children walk long distances for water - with subsequent negative health effects.
» the proliferation of illegal arms is a cause of great concern. With the higher air temperatures, there are also increasing rates of evaporation. The Dams are having a profound impact on the river basin itself. Built to support vast commercial plantations, hundreds of kilometres of irrigation canals are diverting the waters to these plantations. The effects on the delicate ecosystems of the region are clear: the drying out of the riverine zone, the disappearance of silt deposits and the elimination of pasture and trees. In the midst of all the environmental changes – on both sides of the porous international border between Ethiopia and Kenya – are human beings. Their precarious livelihoods are now in disarray. Due to the decline of land and water resources, life-style alterations are demanded of the people. They are ‘forced’ to migrate. There is no doubt but that the lack of land, and its degradation due to over-use, as well as the scarcity of water, are the main factors at play in the conflict between the Merille and the Turkana people. These conflicts have resulted in killings. Worshippers at a Church Service in Todonyang were murdered in August 2016 and retaliatory attacks took place just before last Christmas. The few educational and health services in the area have broken down. Increasing numbers of people are being displaced. There is hunger... anger... uncertainty... death....
River Omo Dams The Ethiopian government has built three dams along the Omo river. Situated some 600 kilometres from Lake Turkana they are having a devastating effect on the Lake and its people. The dams are reducing the fresh water flowing into Lake Turkana by between 50% and 70%. The results are already evident: » A big drop in the Lake water levels. The average depth of the Lake used be about 30 metres. Some estimates now indicate a drop of at least 13 metres. » A marked decrease in the Lake’s nutrients. » Disruption of fish spawning cues and in the productive fish habitat. » a consequent decrease in fish catches. » Declining wild-life and an unstable ecological system.
Towards a Solution The Kenyan and Ethiopian governments need to respect the human rights of their peoples. For over 500,000 people climate change is not an abstract concept. It is impacting their everyday lives. The international community also has a responsibility. Prominent nations and banks are providing substantial funding for the Omo Basin project. They are in a position to, at least, insist on mitigation steps to offset the hardship of the people. Commercial projects cannot be allowed to ride roughshod over the rights of peoples who have lived in this area for millennia. Finally, in the interests of humanity, the United Nations needs to safeguard the Lower Omo basin and Lake Turkana, as “they comprise a series of World Heritage sites, known for their exceptionally important biodiversity and for their central role in the human evolutionary story”. (cf. “The Downstream Impacts of Ethiopia’s Gibe 111 Dam” published by International Rivers: January 2013). The SMA has been involved in the Turkana area for many years.

IRISH INVESTMENT
IN IRISH FORESTRY FOR OVER 20 YEARS Established in 1994 managing Irish pension fund and charity investment in foresty. IForUT’s Unit Holders include many of the major Irish pension funds and investment managers. We are Irelands ‘Largest Private Forest Owner’ and private supplier of Roundwood to the Irish timber processing sector. Our forest portfolio comprises of commercial forest plantations covering over 17,000 hectares. Since inception our objective has been to provide long-term, sustainable real returns primarily through Irish forestry investment.
OUR PRINCIPLES Core to our management are the principles of Corporate Social Responsibility. IForUT forests are FSC (Forest Stewardship Certification) certified. The certification process independently verifies and annually audits IForUT’s forests to demonstrate that they: Are managed in compliance with statutory regulations (water/ habitat/ species/ Health & Safety/ planning) Positively interact with local stakeholders and neighbour. Continuously combine the need for investwment return with opportunities for ecological
enhancement
OUR FORESTS From its inception, IForUT has been investing in forestry. Although the majority of its forests are in Ireland, IForUT has also made some investments in the UK, and more recently in North America through the establishment of the North American Forestry Investment Trust (NAFIT) sub fund.
GROWING ASSET The primary driver of IForUT’s investment return is the biological growth of the underlying forest assets. Ireland provides an optimum climate for commercial tree growth. IForUT realises the value of its investments through the sale of mature timber and forest thinnings. When mature trees are sold, the forests are replanted and value is also added through the application of continuous scientific improvements in the trees being planted and methods that are used. Since it started in 1994, the fund has continuously grown through new forest acquisitions and capital growth in the underlying biological asset. Initially, IForUT’s investment portfolio was concentrated on capital growth but, with developing maturity it is now increasingly providing cashflow to investors from timber sales. Matching the needs of our investors to their investment requirements is an ongoing strategic consideration in terms of how the forests are managed and also our ongoing forest acquisition policy.
OUR PEOPLE At the core of IForUT’s investment delivery are its people. IForUT prides itself in implementing a culture of excellence, staff engagement, shared problem solving and reward. This is testament to IForUT’s low staff turnover and long standing investor relationships. IForUT clearly sees the return on personal investment in terms of professional development, business schooling and mentoring through challenging roles. As the business and regulatory environment has become more demanding, so to have the skillsets and competencies demanded from the management team. IForUT has been articulate and diligent in acquiring and developing the key competencies required in financial control, IT delivery, compliance management and stakeholder engagement. IForUT prides itself at being at the forefront of forestry investment management and its continuous development of systems and technologies that facilitate the optimisation of its forest asset.

http://www.ul.ie:8081/gems/
The mesentery, which connects the intestine to the abdomen, had for hundreds of years been considered a fragmented structure made up of multiple separate parts. However, research by Professor Coffey found the mesentery is one, continuous structure. In a review published in the November issue of one of the top medical journals, The Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Professor Coffey outlined the evidence for categorising the mesentery as an organ. “In the paper, which has been peer reviewed and assessed,
we are now saying we have an organ in the body which hasn’t been acknowledged as such to date,” Professor Coffey stated. Better understanding and further scientific study of the mesentery could lead to less invasive surgeries, fewer complications, faster patient recovery and lower overall costs. “When we approach it like every other organ…we can categorise abdominal disease in terms of this organ,” Professor Coffey said. According to Professor Coffey, the Foundation Chair of Surgery at UL’s Graduate Entry Medical School and
University Hospitals Limerick, mesenteric science is its own specific field of medical study in the same way as gastroenterology, neurology and coloproctology. Professor Coffey’s research on the mesentery even prompted an update in the latest edition of one of the world’s best-known medical textbooks, Gray’s Anatomy.

A
s a subscribed member of the website ‘Briefbox’, set up by British design agency ORCA, which
provides designers with “resources, skill development and practice briefs which emulated real client based projects that design agencies have to deal with on a daily basis”. I am continuously challenging myself and developing my technical and creative design skills with the large library of practise briefs the website provides. My packaging design for their ‘natural, Greek, cosmetics company’ brief, presented here, was one of five designs out of ninety-seven submissions which ‘Briefbox’ has featured on their social-media accounts as a ‘featured brief’. For my design, I created an organic, symmetrical logo / symbol, comprised of various circular shapes in order to try and represent the natural, raw, modern, botanical design the ‘Flora & Fauna’ company requested. I tried to keep the design of the shampoo bottles as simple, clean and minimal as possible. Letting the focal point be the large colourful logos, designed to grab the customer’s attention. I then used the same logo for the repeating wrapping paper pattern on the soap box to create continuity and simplicity across the brands product range.

he following ‘Briefbox’ brief is a packaging design for a ‘high-end, artisan chocolatier company’
called ‘Cocoloco’. For my packaging, I tried to deliver striking, modern designs which standout from the crowd and which are also inspired by the countries of the cocoa’s origin as requested by the client. After researching the ‘high-end, artisan, chocolatier market’ I found a lot of the designs divided the already rectangular shape of the packaging into two or more smaller rectangular sections and/ or used various wallpaper type patterns throughout. To completely avoid this look, I made my packaging as minimal and simple as I could making as much use of white-space as possible. I then used one illustration inspired by tribal facemasks of the country in question as the focal-point, incorporating the nation’s colours into the illustration. Finally, including the company name in the packaging design as also requested by the client
