Berber Versus the World: An Analysis of Moroccan History and Cultural Identity
In studying the Berber people of Morocco, this article will analyze events throughout Algerian history from the Arab colonization occurring in the 5th century A.D. to the French Protectorate that was established in 1912. These historical events have led to the lack of a Berber national identity and the break-down of Berber cultural identity. Investigating these historical events leads us to an understanding of the generational repercussions that affect the Berber people to this day. Examining the political structure of the Moroccan government reveals the constraint put on the Berber national voice, the fragmentation of the original Tamazight language and the hybridity of different cultural lifestyles beginning with the colonization by the Arabs.Peer reviewe
Electronic structure and optical properties of Schiff base hydrazone derivatives by solution technique for optoelectronic devices: Synthesis, experiment and quantum chemical investigation
WOS: 000449310600004In this study, electronic, optical and spectroscopic FT-IR, UV properties of new synthesized Schiff base hydrazone derivatives, 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-(4-phenoxybenzylidene)hydrazone and 1-(2,4-dinitropheny1)-2-(4-phenoxybenzylidene)hydrazone are investigated by performing solution techniques and theoretical calculations. Solvatochromism and solute-solvent interactions were discussed based on the spectral results. It is observed that Schiff base hydrazone derivatives exhibit positive solvatochromism. Energy band gap E-g is determined experimentally and theoretically in solution. Concentration effect on E-g was investigated in DCM solvent for different molarities of solute. It is observed that solvent and concentration can be used for tuning E-g. NO2 substituent group gives rise to E-g value lows 0.3 eV. The refractive index (n) values were obtained from Moss, Ravindra, Herve-Vandamme, Kumar-Singh and Reddy relations based on E-g data. It is observed that n can be controlled with solvents and concentration of solutions. External electric field (EF) is theoretically applied in order to tuning HOMO-LUMO gap and dipole moment. Consequently, Schiff base hydrazone derivatives intend to be insulator under applied EFBitlis Eren University, Research Foundation [BEBAP-2013.04, BEBAP-2014.05]; Bitlis Eren UniversityThe authors greatly appreciate Bitlis Eren University, Research Foundation for the financial support via BEBAP-2013.04 and BEBAP-2014.05 projects.

IFPRI Kenya strengthens impact evaluation capacity at the University of Nairobi
From October 1st to 3rd, 2024, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) Kenya office organized a transformative training on Impact Evaluation for teaching staff at the University of Nairobi. Led by Dr. Hailemariam Ayalew Tiruneh, Dr. Berber Kramer, and Dr. Naureen Karachiwalla, this initiative was a significant step in strengthening the capacity of local partners to conduct evidence-based research and foster accountability in development. This is part of a continued collaboration between the University of Nairobi, IFPRI and the CGIAR Initiatives on National Polices and Strategies (NPS)
