LIENS is a French non-profit association created on March 30, 2012 to address social problems through cooperation between charities, social enterprises, donors, and volunteers. It plans to build a website in 2013 to connect these groups, develop open-source software to help social organizations, and channel resources to selected social enterprise projects. The goal is to help address issues like unemployment, access to resources, and replication of successful initiatives through an Internet-based platform that facilitates cooperation and funding connections across sectors.
Presented during Tshikululu Social Investments' 2011 Serious Enterprise Development workshop.
The asset-based and community-driven approach to development espouses the belief that communities can take the lead in identifying and managing their own priorities; empowering communities to genuinely take ownership of their development. Put simply, the approach argues that less is achieved by identifying 'needs', and rather the emphasis should be on the 'assets' in any given community.
An overview of how small community groups and membership organisations can use community engine to collect payments, manage memberships, and find new members.
A special briefing by 3 Pillars Network Research looking the burgeoning field of social investment in Australia. We spoke to leaders in the field to assess where we are and how we face the challenge of striking the right balance between social, environmental and financial goals.

How can agencies engage volunteers in supporting a more included life in the community for people with intellectual disabilities?
Keenan Wellar, MA and Julie Kingstone, MEd
Co-Founders & Co-Leaders, LiveWorkPlay
Starting in 2008, LiveWorkPlay embarked on a journey of “de-programming” by making a shift from congregated programs
to authentic community-based supports and outcomes based
on flexible and individualized person-centered planning.
At the core of this transformation, the agency dramatically expanded the size and scope of its volunteer team. This has changed the organization, it has changed lives, and it is changing the community.
HR in the Social Era. The Power of CommunityJim Lefever
By any measure, on a global, regional and local basis, the world of business is in a state of flux. We are rapidly moving away from the Industrial Age with its rigid structures, stable business models, formal processes and functionally siloed organisations into a fluid and flexible environment that fundamentally changes the way value is created, the meaning of work, and the structures for our institutions.
This has huge implications not only for how HR fulfills its purpose but indeed whether HR will survive as a function without undergoing an appropriate transformation to meet these new realities.
This white paper seeks to address these issues by combining the power of community with the changes in the workplace to create a solution that will enable the success of business in the Social Era.

IBM POWER8 processor is the fastest available on the market, redefining Open Source performance. With this amazing processor, IBM and members of the OpenPower Foundation design innovative and cost-effective systems, delivering the infrastructure of choice for the most demanding workloads, in terms of throughput, scalability and reliability.
In this talk in english, Thibaud Besson will browse the key characteristics of Power Systems, why they are the most relevant for today's challenges, both from a technical and economical standpoint. Finally, we will review the possibilities you have to get your hands on one of these outstanding plateforms for your Open Source applications.
In the past, Canadians relied on governments and non-profits to meet social needs, while leaving markets, private capital and business to deliver financial returns. This binary system is breaking down. Profound societal challenges require us to find new ways to mobilize ingenuity and resources for effective, long-term solutions. A social finance marketplace investing in social, environmental and economic returns.
This presentation explains why we need high streets that connect with, serve and benefit local people. It shows why we need to connect viscerally with people's emotions and motivations, and strategically with the wider economy.

The Rise and Implications of Social Enterprise in East Vancouver Wes Regan
Social Enterprise has become an increasingly high profile concept in community economic development, but as government downloading and privatization continues to change the nature of service delivery and accountability in communities how do we best measure the full range of impacts social enterprise are increasingly expected to bring, mitigate potential externalities or negative impacts, and sort through the ambiguity that exists in the social economy space as they continue to proliferate? Social enterprise, social purpose business, social impact business, enterprising non profits, community interest company, community contribution company, for-profit social venture, non-profit social enterprise, the typologies alone are diverse and often interchangeable. This presentation was given to Groundswell Economic Alternatives School in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside in January 2015 and builds on soon to be published research conducted by graduate students Wes Regan (SFU, Urban Studies) and Jeremy Stone (UBC SCARP) for the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. It also builds on Regan's work over the past 6 years in community economic development and the trends he has seen in community micro-finance, social enterprise and business development and gentrification.
Focusing on three areas essential to nonprofit success in the era of online giving: participatory programs, new younger donors, and communicating one's story. Produced as a training by Reggie Woolery of 'Arts4Good' for participants in "Give Big San Bernardino County 2015" campaign.

#OSSPARIS19 : The evolving (IoT) security landscape - Gianluca Varisco, ArduinoParis Open Source Summit
IoT is at the peak of the hype cycle - what they call the 'Peak of Inflated Expectations’. The complexity of the cybersecurity landscape is at an all-time high, with security researchers, vendors and even governments all trying to come to a consensus for making the cyber-world a safer place. In this world of lightning-fast development cycles, it may intuitively feel like security gets left behind. The battle over standards is always a struggle. The unresolved problem of software updates and short vendor support cycle combined with the lack of effort into security makes these devices an easy target. Companies not only need to update their technology stack for the evolving security landscape but also their mindset, processes and culture. This talk will shine a light on some of the challenges that today’s executives face in finding and fixing systemic problems in and outside of security through people, tools and understanding.
#OSSPARIS19: Construire des applications IoT "secure-by-design" - Thomas Gaza...Paris Open Source Summit
"Cette présentation a pour but de présenter MirageOS et ses applications à l'écriture d'applications IoT sécurées. En particulier, MirageOS permet de développer des applications d'infrastructure réseau --- firewalls, proxy VPN, serveurs d'emails, etc. --- qui peuvent être déployées sur des processeurs embarqués de type ARMv8, ESP32 ou RISC-V. Nous expliquerons comment nous nous appuierons sur cette couche d'infrastructure entièrement open-source pour développer OSMOSE, une plateforme sécurisée et décentralisée permettant de construire des application IoT centrées sur l'utilisateur et le respect de sa vie privée.

WarpScript est un langage de programmation open source conçu pour facilement requêter, manipuler et traiter des données de séries temporelles à la volée. Bien qu'il soit compatible nativement avec Warp 10, WarpScript peut aussi être connecté à d'autre sources de données. Dans cette présentation, nous allons détecter des anomalies à la volée en utilisant des fonctions WarpScript et répondre aux questions suivantes. Que doit-on définir comme une anomalie ? Quel algorithme correspond au type d'anomalie que l'on cherche à détecter ? Comment prendre en compte la possible saisonnalité de mes données ?
