2019 Arab Region SDG Index and Dashboards Report Year of publication: 2019 Author: Lara Dahan Corporate author: Emirates Diplomatic Academy (EDA) | Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) The Arab Region SDG Index and Dashboards are intended as a tool for governments and other stakeholders to measure progress on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and to highlight gaps in both implementation and data. The 2019 Arab Region SDG Index is the first in its kind and is therefore also intended as a conversation-opener about priority areas, policies and actions.The 2019 Arab Region SDG Index comprises 105 indicators, each of which have an assigned score (0–100) and a traffic light colour (green, yellow, orange, or red) to indicate performance. In addition, arrows indicate trends in progress towards achieving the goals for those indicators where data for multiple years are available.Compared to the Sustainable Development Report 2019, which contains the SDG Index and Dashboards for all UN Member States, the Arab Region Index introduces 30 new indicators that reflect regional priorities and challenges. The selection of these indicators, along with related thresholds, was greatly informed by two rounds of regional expert consultations, which were conducted in May and August 2019 and collected more than 200 comments from more than 40 individuals. The regional Index also removes indicators that are not useful or relevant for the region or where data coverage is currently insufficient.In addition, the 2019 Arab Region Index includes Palestine, which has so far not been included in the global SDG Index reports. It also provides a total SDG achievement score for two countries – Libya and Somalia – that did not receive one in the global Index due to low data availability.

مفهوم الدين والمواطنة في الدولة الحديثة Year of publication: 2019 Corporate author: Alghad TV حدث ظهور الإسلام نقلة نوعية في الحياة السياسية بالجزيرة العربية، حيث نجح الدين الجديد في تفكيك البنى القبلية، وتغيير المفاهيم الطبقية القائمة على الانتماءات الضيقة، لصالح مفهوم الوطن الذي يساوي بين الجميع في الحقوق والواجبات، وهو ما تجلى بوضوح في وثيقة المدينة التي نظمت العلاقة بين المسلمين واليهود وغيرهم، باعتبارهم جميعا أمة من دون الناس، و على الرغم من ذلك مازال البعض ينادي باعتبار غير المسلمين مواطنين من الدرجة الثانية، لا ولاية لهم ولا مساواة معهم في بلاد المسلمين، وهو ما يتعارض مع الأسس التي قامت عليها الدولة الوطنية الحديثة، باعتبار الدين لله، والوطن للجميع! ويطرح السؤال نفسه: هل يمكن لمفهوم الدولة أن يقوم على اعتبارات دينية تقصى الآخر وتتجاهل وجوده؟ The Concept of Religion and Citizenship in Modern Country (Yatfakroon Season 3 Episode 22) Year of publication: 2019 Corporate author: Alghad TV The emergence of Islam took a qualitative leap in political life in the Arabian Peninsula, as the new religion succeeded in dismantling tribal structures and changing class concepts based on narrow affiliations in favor of the concept of the homeland, which equates everyone in rights and duties. This was clearly demonstrated in the Medina document that organized the relationship between Muslims, Jews and others, as they are all a nation without the people, and in spite of this, some still call for non-Muslims to be considered second-class citizens, with no jurisdiction or equality with them in Muslim countries. This contradicts the foundations on which the modern nation state was established, considering Religion is for God and the homeland for all! The same question arises: Can the concept of the state be based on religious considerations that exclude the other and ignore his existence?
