<p align="center">The Middle East is side by side with western countries competing in optimal utilization in processing the resources provided by the earth. Clean water is an absolute source of life that humans need. In addition, the technology and wealth of a country are the benchmarks for supporting the achievement of a country's goals. The use of manipulated nature to meet the needs of clean water is the idea of one of the developed countries in the Middle East, namely the United Arab Emirates. The United Arab Emirates, which is rich in natural wealth and abundant wealth, accompanied by advances in mindset and technology that is never separated from commemorating its culture, makes them think more deeply than other countries with their wealth of clean water. The sowing of salt in the atmosphere along with desalination/filtration of seawater into ready-to-consume water is an action taken by the Emirate to meet the needs of its people. Changes in natural ecosystems that were originally arid to become barren and green are almost impossible actions but have been successfully carried out and implemented by developed countries in the Middle East. Then the question arises about whether changing the shape and manipulating nature that should be as usual in this ecosystem will have an impact or benefit the general public.</p>

In the last fifty years, empirical evidence has shown that climate change and environmental degradation are largely the results of increased world population, economic development, and changes in cultural and social norms. Thus far we have been unable to slow or reverse the practices that continue to produce more air and water pollution, soil and ocean degradation, and ecosystem decline. This paper analyzes the negative anthropogenic impact on the ecosystem and proposes a new design solution: ecomimesis, which uses the natural ecosystem as its template to conserve, restore, and improve existing ecosystems. Through its nonintrusive strategies and designs, and its goal of preserving natural ecosystems and the earth, ecomimesis can become an integral part of stabilizing and rehabilitating our natural world at the same time that it addresses the needs of growing economies and populations around the world.

This study examines the relationship between population aging and economic growth in a panel of 10 selected Middle East countries for the period of 1996–2016. For this purpose, this study uses two different measures of population aging, namely population aged 65 and over and old dependency ratio, to investigate their impacts on economic growth. The study utilizes the three alternative models of static panel data comprised of the pooled ordinary least squares, random effects, and fixed effects. The results of the robust fixed effects model indicate that the population aged 65 and over and the old dependency ratio have a positive effect on economic growth. The finding supports the argument indicating that an aging population does not necessarily adversely affect economic growth in the developing countries as it does in the developed countries. Therefore, the elderly population is not a matter of concern for the Middle East and the mechanisms through which the effect can take place are savings behavior and human capital accumulation of the individuals.

An epidemic of asbestos related lung (ARLD) disease stares the developed countries in the face. However, these countries have lately banned the use of asbestos. Nevertheless, Western countries have no qualms of selling asbestos to poor countries that have no credible health safety regulations in the work place. Epidemiologic studies predicted a decline in incidence of ARLD in the US after the year 2000, with a peak incidence in the UK in 2020. Lung cancer (LC) develops in up to 25% of asbestos workers. In exposed nonsmokers, there is 5-fold increase. In exposed individuals, smoking further increases the risk of bronchogenic carcinoma by 80-90-fold. However the silent killer, asbestos is still active in developing countries and is likely to remains so in decades to come. In the Middle East, immigrant workers still work in asbestos environment. Saudi Arabia is the only major country in the Middle East that has banned asbestos, but workers continue to be at risk due to maintenance work on buildings built before the ban. As asbestos related lung disease remains silent in many and has a long latent period, the only way of detecting these diseases early is by diligence being aware of the patient&rsquo;s occupational history and affective imaging. Presently there is no credible screening for ARLD. Here we review imaging studies in ARLD to increase awareness of this potentially lethal disease. Whereas diagnosis of ARLD is a matter for compensation in the developed countries it is a matter of survival in the developing world where industrialization has just begun and may take decades to remove the threat of asbestos. In this review we will discuss the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features of ARLD.

Most research studies in health information searching behaviour are conducted in developed countries. Little is known with strong governmental support in healthcare initiatives it is interesting to take note of the general information searching practices of citizens in the Middle East and North African region. In this article, a questionnaire was distributed in a university setting in the United Arab Emirates. Sixty participants consisting of citizens from MENA countries participated in this study. The results indicate citizens from the Middle East and North African region do perform online health searches. However, an equal number of citizens use books and mass media to obtain health information. When online methods are utilised, working adults who have more years of experience searching for health information tend to use more medical type search engines. Undergraduate students were generally new to the process of online health information searching. Online health searching in the MENA region is more of a social and educational activity rather than a private activity.

Climate change has become the most challenging problem and task for every one living on the earth. The most unfortunate thing is that neither the developed countries nor the developing economies are serious on this task and as a result, on concrete solution has come so far. There has been more myth rather reality. As the time running very fast, it has become imperative for those economies which are major player in the issue of climate change must come forward with a concrete solution to this problem at all costs. Otherwise, the globe will have to face irrecoverable damages and every one will have to bear the unimaginable loss of humanity and materials. The present paper analyses the major issues taken at Copenhagen and Cancun. How far the decisions taken at Copenhagen have been implemented and what is to be decided at Cancun. The paper also suggests what should be done after the Cancun meet for meeting the rising challenges of climate change.

Globalization, Neo-liberalization, Post-modernism are approaches  that  makes the world one, it has increased cultural exchanges, academic exchanges, trade and business exchanges and is useful for all developing countries on the globe, if those are its advantages, people migration through illegally is its disadvantages, there was no global terms of legal or illegal immigration at the beginning of 19th century, United Nations General Assembly in 1948 states that everyone has the right to leave any country including his own and to that return country, but it has not been honoured by developing countries, due to changes of world order, population growth, regional conflicts, war, civil war, poverty, people start to moving from one to another country,  population growth in developing countries is one of the most important reasons that forced people leave their land and to migrate illegally or legally, though legal immigration has processes for their further innovation, development but illegal immigration is a curse for developed countries, countries that are industrially developed like United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, people from developing world are forcing to leave due to war, civil war, community clashes, and to taking shelter as a refugees but at the end most of them are not returning after normalization of their own conflicts, people are moving without documents, in the United Europe, European Union policies are trying to control immigration from non-member countries such as immigrants from Morocco and other North Africans countries are migrating illegally to Spain for a better life and to came out from miserable life from their own countries but the Spain Government declares to deport people from non-members countries who are living illegally in Spanish land, England declares to controlling access of all Romanian and Bulgarian to the UK  who are benefitting as EU member country, upon acceptance of all East European countries as the member of EU, approximately 427,000 East Europeans, mostly from Poland have registered for employment in Britain, though Western Europe are more inclined to hire Eastern European than Asian and Africans, but yet Britain decided to came out from EU because of illegal immigration to Britain from Eastern Europe which negatively affected their economy and job security of original British citizens’, so what is the solution for the worst crisis of illegal immigration and refugees accommodation world-wide? Is it forcing them to back their own countries? Is it taking initiatives through both North and South countries for the solution of the problem? Or is it solving really? A continual discussion of alternative solutions world-wide has to be discovered for the reduction of the problem of refugees and immigration world-wide, communication between developing and the developed countries have to be strength for the resolution of faster population growth in developing countries, assistance by the developed countries in war conflicted regions has to be increased, universal birth control education need to be formed, I tried to discussed the problems, reasons, and its solution as one of my focused areas in international development, it is something that I would like pursue my study in the near future as a continuing student, I hope I will be succeed.

Therefore, the reform of the educational process needs a holistic view of all aspects and areas, which goes beyond all temporary or illogical solutions, reform must be comprehensive, based on quality and quality in the various components of the educational system, so most of the developed countries have opted for Education has adopted a system of quality in reforming its educational and pedagogical systems, with the quality of education reaching the highest educational and educational levels. This research discusses the problem of Iraq in terms of applying quality in education and comparing quality standards in education with the standards of some countries (United Kingdom, United States of America, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia) These countries were chosen as a result of their uniqueness In addition to the fact that some of them have recognized standards at the local and global level and through comparison of quality standards in Iraq with other States and the extent to which the criteria are used and to propose and update certain criteria, among the most salient conclusions (by comparing Standards show that there is a lack of coverage of all basic standards and that some standards and codes have been proposed to make them fit into the educational environment.)
