For this assessment, select a business (either the one you work for now, or one with which you are familiar), and determine what services are currently provided in-house which may benefit from migrating to a cloud service.

Examples may include data storage for collaboration and file sharing (Sharepoint), email, web services, server virtualization, etc.

Research potential benefits associated with the proposed cloud service, and determine a rough estimate of cost for budgetary purposes.

Write a brief 3 page IWG-formatted paper addressed to the business leader who would approve the migration (this person can be fictitious), presenting the business justification for the proposal.

The paper should include a brief background to the business with the current system in place, a discussion of the proposed cloud service, and an overall idea of the timeline and cost required to migrate.

Support your proposal with at least two external citations and references

Analyze, firstly, the current EU regulatory integration on international protection, retracing the most important stages of the communitarization of the immigration and asylum policy within the Union and correlating the latter to a wider legal aspect such as the multilevel protection of fundamental rights.

The research project intends to analyze, firstly, the current EU regulatory integration on international protection, retracing the most important stages of the communitarization of the immigration and asylum policy within the Union and correlating the latter to a wider legal aspect such as the multilevel protection of fundamental rights.
In this context, the profiles of greatest interest are: the determination of the country competent to examine the asylum application as governed by the Dublin Regulation and balanced with the sovereignty clause; the definition of the categories of subjects included in the notion of international protection; the EU’s SAR zone and the “safe third country” concept.
It is worth noting that the humanitarian emergency of 2015 requires us to question the efficiency of the initiatives and legal instruments adopted by the European Union, in order to study a better migration policy on asylum aimed at guaranteeing respect for the fundamental rights of international protection applicants and fair sharing of responsibility among the States of the Union.
Consequently, it seems worth studying not only the EU management and control of irregular immigration but also its external dynamics. As a result, the second part of the research will be focused on the external dimension of the EU migration policy: the support to host and transit countries through existing Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) missions and operations, including on border management and fighting traffickers and smugglers; the use of financial tools such as the Emergency Trust Fund for Africa or the Syria Trust Fund in addition to other broader programs, such as the European Neighborhood Instrument (ENI), the Development Cooperation Instrument (DCI), the European Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR) and the Instrument contributing to Stability and Peace (IcSP); the mechanisms and agreements that affect in particular Niger and Rwanda, as regards the role played by UNHCR and IOM on the relocation of migrants via the mandate of the European Commission.

Finally, in order to identify some best practices, a comparison will be made between the external dimension of the asylum policies of the EU and Australia – as regards the management of the SAR area – and the United States – in terms of management of irregular migration flows on land border.

For the rest of the year you will be working on the final project, a Photo Essay. Photo essays present a series of photographs intended to tell a story. They combine carefully chosen photos with writing in the form of captions or full descriptions to evoke a series of emotions in the viewer. Famous journalists use the photo essay to combine the power of essay storytelling techniques with the impact of visual images

You will determine the purpose of your essay as you would with any article: to inform, to entertain, to persuade, or impetus for change. However, the purpose of a photo essay is to capture the visual elements of the subject rather than just describe what happens. In a time of quarantine and social distancing, this is especially important. Most people can’t see or experience themselves what you will capture in the photos.
