Several shots were fired at the garage door of the residence, which belongs to an 86-year-old man who is not known to police circles.

59th Annual Meeting of the African Development Bank Group: Transforming Africa and Reforming Global Financial Architecture

The 59th Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors of the African Development Bank and the 50th Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors of the African Development Fund will be held May 27-31, 2024 at the Kenyatta International Conference Center in Nairobi, Kenya. The African Development Fund is the concessional rate loan window of the Bank Group.

The central theme of the 2024 Annual Meetings is: “ Africa’s transformation, the African Development Bank Group and the reform of the global financial architecture ».

The Annual Meetings include invitation-only sessions for Member States, closed-door bilateral meetings, as well as events open to all participants, including media representatives.

They provide a forum where Bank governors can share their experiences in managing the growing public debt burden, which has increased following the global economic shocks of recent years.

The lack of climate finance for African priorities and the high cost of capital to invest in sustainable infrastructure for green growth and a just energy transition should also be high on the agenda.

The Assemblies constitute a platform for reflection on the commitment of the Bank Group to the accomplishment of its mission of developing the African continent and improving the living environment of its populations.

The Annual Meetings of the African Development Bank Group include statutory meetings of its governors (finance ministers or central bank governors representing the 81 member countries) and knowledge sharing events. Participants include representatives from bilateral and multilateral development agencies, leading academics and non-governmental organizations, civil society and the private sector.

The Meetings are the Bank Group’s largest annual event, attracting approximately 3,000 participants. They allow the institution to take stock with its shareholders of the progress made over the past year.

FIS Masters Ski Racing Event at Wildschönau: Recap by Peter Deutscher (ÖSV Masters Speaker)

by Peter Deutscher (ÖSV masters speaker)

“Although we had to hold the races once more (as in 2023) in Aufach am Schatzberg, the slope and the terrain once once more proved to be fully suitable for Masters.

A great starting field of 230 registered athletes in the giant slalom and 200(!) in the slalom show a high level of interest in Masters racing! A total of 16 nations took part, with our ÖSV Masters at the top, of course, which were represented by 93 women and men.

Kelchsau & Wildschönau are absolute centers of excellence in Masters racing! The two ski clubs, SV Kelchsau under the leadership of Chairman Josef “Josel” Erharter and SV Wildschönau with chairman Christoph Brugger (of course everyone and their team) ensured a great event.

Although two giant slalom races on one day (Saturday) push the limits of endurance – for both the piste team and the runners – the races were completed well and, above all, without any accidents.

The Masters once once more thanked the organizer with top performances (although we can say that, with a few exceptions, the entire top field in Masters racing came). We would still like to highlight a few athletes:

  • Doris Bergnerdaily winner in RTL Cat. Women C
  • Monika Hörhagerdaily winner in RTL and SL Cat. Women D
  • Paul Fuchsdaily winner RTL and SL Cat. Men B
  • Rainer Herbdaily winner RTL Cat. Men A
  • Larsen Kjetil Fladmark (NOR), winner of the day SL Cat. Men A

Further details and class winners can be found at www.skizeit.at.

It was a thoroughly successful racing event, which concluded with worthy award ceremonies at the Niederau village square and on the Kogelhof terrace.

Many thanks once more to everyone who contributed to the success of the FIS Masters races in Wildschönau,

Peter Deutscher

Under the blue eye of the maestro, reproduced in a gigantic moon dominating the catwalk, the models stroll in the intimate setting of the historic headquarters on via Borgonuovo, the antipodes of fashion-spectacle.

“Men’s fashion should not be an object of desire at all costs, it should be a nice suit, a nice jacket, a nice fabric, a nice color and nothing more, because otherwise we risk having a carnival,” he said. commented the designer.

Faithful to its casual chic DNA, Giorgio Armani opted for loose but refined pants, and mid-length coats worn open which promote freedom of movement.

For next winter, the volumes have been increased, “to give even more ease and fluidity” to the clothes in the collection, explains Giorgio Armani.

The deconstructed jacket, without shoulder pads and unlined, the brand’s emblem, has been declined endlessly: dandy style, it goes with the essential vest and pleated pants. Sports version, it is worn over cargo pants slipped into boots.

The couturier’s eternal puzzle consists of “doing the usual in an unusual way”, he confided following the show, on the fourth day of Men’s Fashion Week.

The master thus gives himself a few little offbeat touches: a large leather coat lined with faux leopard fur or a strict suit matched with a somewhat puffy tie.

But the tie is very discreet in the fashion show, it is thin, black or gray, hidden under a blazer and often replaced by a scarf.

“The tie depends on the occasion, we make it worn by the man who goes to the office, with respect for this office, because I hope he does not go in a t-shirt to an important meeting”, quipped Giorgio Armani.

Black and gray are omnipresent, combined as desired with greige, green, but also pink, light blue and dark blue.

Giorgio Armani presented on Saturday the new collection of his Emporio line, high-end ready-to-wear aimed at a trendy clientele, inspired by the marine world and focused on adventure and daring.
