Higher teaching loads, increased expectations of research output, and changing social and economic structures that shape the way students view their tertiary education have a profound affect on university teachers? work. The pages of this volume are filled with the stories of teachers in universities that allow the reader to look deeply into the complexities of their work. We and the other authors do not pretend that the stories told here are representative of all university teachers, that they are in any way generalisable, but that others may learn from the knowledge that is shared. 410 0$aOther Books 606 $aEducation 606 $aEducation 615 0$aEducation. 615 14$aEducation. 676 $a370 701 $aGarvis$b Susanne$0908160 701 $aDwyer$b Rachael$01035361 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954412203321 996 $aWhisperings from the Corridors$94333698 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03587nam 2200697Ia 450 001 9910953225803321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786612645297 010 $a9781282645295 010 $a1282645293 010 $a9780821381380 010 $a0821381385 024 7 $a10.1596/978-0-8213-8137-3 035 $a(CKB)2560000000015098 035 $a(EBL)718831 035 $a(OCoLC)646067861 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000409809 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12174975 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000409809 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10347973 035 $a(PQKB)11668352 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL718831 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10397682 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL264529 035 $a(The World Bank)ocn455157059 035 $a(US-djbf)15934795 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC718831 035 $a(Perlego)1483562 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000015098 100 $a20091005d2010 uf 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aCharacterizing the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the Middle East and North Africa $etime for strategic action /$fLaith Abu-Raddad ...

In the more than 25 years since the discovery of HIV, no scientific study has provided a comprehensive, data-driven synthesis of the spread of HIV/AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) in the region. Consequently, the effectiveness of policies, programs, and resources intended to address the spread of HIV/AIDS has been compromised.
