The 'World's Loneliest House' is a secluded island hideaway surrounded by the sea, located on Ellidaey, a remote island south of Iceland that is part of the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago of 15 to 18 islands.
About 300 years ago, five families lived on this island. The lone structure on the island was designed to serve as a lodge for puffin hunters.
Surprisingly, the structure is encircled by a fence and has been cloaked in mystery since it first appeared in public forums.
A rustic house on Elliaey Island lacks modern comforts but features a rainwater-fueled sauna. It epitomises tranquillity and a simpler existence by the water in a protected nature reserve.
The Disability Equality Index (DEI) is a comprehensive benchmarking tool that assists businesses in developing a roadmap of measurable, actionable steps to achieve disability inclusion and equality. On a scale of zero (0) to 100, each employer earns a score, with those scoring 80 or higher recognised as a "Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion."
Amazon Official: A group of Amazon employees after collecting the honor for our top score of 100 on the Disability Equality Index at the Disability: IN's 2023 Global Conference & Expo.
The Disability Equality Initiative (DEI) is a collaborative effort between the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), the nation's biggest disability rights organisation, and Disability: IN, the worldwide business disability inclusion network, to enhance the inclusion of people with disabilities. The organisations complement each other and add unique qualities to the initiative, making it relevant and credible to corporations and the disabled community. The DEI Advisory Committee, a broad coalition of corporate leaders, policy experts, and disability advocates, created the tool.
Amazon wants to be the most inclusive and accessible employer for persons with disabilities on the planet. Amazon's Global Disability Inclusion Office is fascinated with the employee experience, which is in our DNA. Disability: IN's Disability Equality Index motivates us to improve our work month after month.

According to a statement issued by Japan's foreign ministry, the countries discussed five areas of cooperation during Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's visit to the UAE. Green economy; trade; diplomacy and security; culture, education, science and technology; and international and regional affairs are among the topics covered.
In the field of technology, the UAE made a promise to invest in Japan's semiconductor industry through two frameworks, expanding on a scheme focusing on advanced technology signed by the two earlier this year.
Furthermore, the governments agreed that the UAE will provide financial support to Japan in order to enhance its battery ecosystem.
There are plans for the two countries to enhance their cooperation in space technology, artificial intelligence, and the circular economy.
