This document summarizes a research project on aging in urban environments conducted from 2010-2012. The project used both qualitative and quantitative methods including focus groups, case studies, interviews, and a two-wave survey of over 1,200 people across major Czech cities. The research questions focused on how changing urban environments impact the aging experience, how biological aging influences place use, and strategies for dealing with challenges and utilizing opportunities related to regeneration, gentrification, and social networks. The survey modules gathered data on mobility, quality of life, perceptions of neighborhoods and their changes over time, housing, and social connections.

Birds and plants regeneration
This document discusses the importance of birds in plant regeneration through seed dispersal and pollination. It notes that birds play an important role in the natural regeneration process by dispersing seeds through defecation or regurgitation, which helps move seeds to favorable germination sites. The document then provides examples of different seed dispersal mechanisms used by plants and birds, including endozoochory where seeds are inside the bird's body. It describes adaptations that have evolved in both birds and plants to facilitate their mutualistic relationship around seed dispersal and pollination. The conclusion is that birds are important agents for afforestation and regeneration by aiding both pollination and seed dispersal across diverse plant species.

Africa is rapidly urbanizing. 40% of the continent’s population is now urban, but despite Africa’s extensive natural resources and strong economic growth, neither international nor local investments find their way to the cities. In postcolonial Africa the City is still considered an exception. Basic infrastructure is still lacking and urbanization is occurring primarily in the form of slums, as silent encroachments. However, African urban researchers note that the African city should not be considered simply incomplete versions of their western counterparts. Indeed, the African city is following its own route with a very different map. These cities are growing as nodes in mutually dependent networks that span over national boundaries. Their populations are in perpetual movement – constantly in search of work and possibilities.
The city of Cape Town has a young, multi-cultural population and engagement from grassroots movements as well as academics and practitioners spans from social to spatial issues. Nowhere is the discourse on the Right to the City more urgently apparent than here. The conditions for an inclusive future based on equitably distributed resources are here and now. The city begs the question – can Cape Town show the way towards a genuinely more sustainable urban Africa, or will a refusal to act keep this development from occurring?
Resource.11 continues its present program series Happy Grounds – a multiple-year investigation of alternative urban models and perspectives on development generated from particularly advantageous breeding grounds, such as climate, topography, cultural expressions, resources, economies or social phenomena. We now look towards South Africa where we will take part of the intensive debate concerning the African city that is going on right now in Cape Town.

Analysis of Social Perception and Tourism Potential of Traditional Villages i...
The traditional village is not only the biggest heritage of agriculture but also the most ancient and precious resource of culture in China. But along with the rapid development of modern society and cities, the traditional village, which has a science of study, history, and cultural value, is disappearing rapidly. Therefore, this paper uses big data and ArcGIS as a means to obtain the research data of traditional villages in Zhanjiang and analyze their spatial distribution characteristics. Then, the driving factors affecting the tourism development of traditional villages are analyzed, and the social perception behind them is interpreted. Finally, the Tourism Development Potential Index (TDPI) model is used to evaluate the tourism development potential of traditional villages in Zhanjiang and make suggestions. The results showed that among the factors affecting the tourism development of traditional villages in Zhanjiang, the weight of human factors was greater than that of natural factors. Among the eight driving factors of tourism development, high-level scenic spots and socio-economic factors had the greatest impact on tourism development in traditional villages, with 10 traditional villages with strong potential, 47 with medium potential, and 39 with weak potential. Based on this, the corresponding development strategy is proposed, aiming at offering a scientific basis for developing Zhanjiang Traditional Village's tourist industry.

This document discusses a study on the livelihoods of women living in the Semmencherry Resettlement Area in Chennai, India. The study examines how women's access to public transportation affects their livelihood assets and spatial practices. It finds that transportation has a multiplier effect, improving livelihood assets for women who can freely choose transportation, but worsening the position of women dependent on transportation for their livelihoods. The document outlines the study's methodology, case context, findings on daily travel and access to facilities. It analyzes factors influencing transportation access and the strategies women use to cope. The conclusion is that transportation plays a key role in inclusion or exclusion from the city and its livelihood opportunities.Cultural Intermediation as the Practice of Governing
This document summarizes the work of a research project team examining cultural intermediation and governance. The team took an interdisciplinary approach, studying cultural intermediation through an arts and humanities lens. They examined cultural intermediation's role in both formal governance structures and informal everyday practices. Through baseline assessments, case studies, and diary-keeping with participants, the team explored how cultural intermediation connects and disconnects different cultural sectors and communities. Their goal was to understand how cultural intermediation could help "re-govern" creative cities to be more inclusive. The team planned to share their findings through academic publications, policy discussions, and local seminars.

Maps of the living neighborhoods - a study of Genoa through social media
The document discusses a proposed study to map neighborhoods in Genoa, Italy using social media check-in data from Foursquare. Specifically, it aims to export the Livehoods urban computing project from Carnegie Mellon University to analyze how Foursquare data generates thematic maps of neighborhoods that sometimes differ from official boundaries. The author believes Livehoods could help understand Genoa's neighborhoods as defined by residents' daily routines and activities, rather than static municipal designations. As a case study, the document suggests mapping the redeveloped Fiumara area to see if Livehoods reveals insights into how people experience this neighborhood compared to its planned design.

This document summarizes a research study examining online portfolio curation among visual arts students in Cape Town, South Africa. The study analyzed how students present themselves and their work digitally, and how this relates to their cultural backgrounds and access to resources. A framework combining cultural capital theory and capability approaches was used to understand gaps in students' participation in digital culture. The framework was applied to a case study of one student, finding that he used a mobile-centric approach to curate personas across multiple creative roles, despite limitations to his digital access and experience.2019: Immersing in the ”Familiar City”: A case study based on walk through tours

This project examines how citizens experience and engage with urban spaces in Brasov, Romania through ethnographic research methods. Researchers conducted walk-through tours with participants to understand how they navigate and interact with the city. They analyzed the data collected to identify themes of mobility, attentiveness, attachment, territoriality, and memory. The researchers involved students and community members to challenge their interpretations and ensure the project produces knowledge about the city from the perspective of its inhabitants. They aim to sustain the project by publishing academic papers, continuing research collaborations, and maintaining an online platform to engage the public.Urban planning and design gender-inclusive WB 2020
This document is an executive summary of the World Bank Handbook for Gender-Inclusive Urban Planning and Design. It outlines that urban planning and design have historically reinforced gender inequities by not considering the needs of women, girls, and gender minorities. However, planning and design processes that actively include these groups can help create more equitable cities. The summary then provides an overview of the handbook's goals to demonstrate how gender impacts the built environment, make the case for gender-inclusive practices, and provide practical guidelines for processes and projects. It concludes by stating that gender-inclusive planning and design can advance gender equity and economic/social development for all.

In this paper we reflect on our experiences of using cultural probes for co-creating a digital neighbourhood guide with and for older adults. We will focus on a specific set of probes that relate to the spatial dimension of social inclusion of older citizens with respect to their sense of attachment to their neighbourhood, their sense of security and familiarity in a neighbourhood as well as their sense of identity. Based on our experience in two different districts in the city of Bremen and different groups of older adults we present some first insights into how probes may establish older adults as experts in the design process or increase feelings of limitation and deficiency

Students abroad –practical ethnograhy in the digital age
This document discusses potential alternatives to traditional assessments for students returning from study abroad programs. It proposes having students undertake a single creative project in the form of an ethnographic documentary filmed abroad and incorporating images, interviews, voiceovers and written commentary. Such a project would focus on observing and analyzing everyday life through the student's direct experiences. Preparation would involve a module on ethnography and documentary films. While there are issues around ethics and guidelines, the document argues these can be streamlined to give students more autonomy to creatively make sense of their experiences in an interesting way.
The spatial dimension of urban marginality
The document discusses the spatial dimension of urban marginality. It argues that macrosocial processes like metropolization and globalization have led to the polarization of society and the dual city, with gentrification, peri-urbanization, and relegation overlapping with social and spatial exclusion. This spatial confinement of vulnerable populations produces negative area effects that exacerbate social exclusion. Research in French cities shows both low mobility and dependence on local networks in deprived neighborhoods, as well as high residential mobility and signs of ethnic discrimination. French urban policy aims to spatially concentrate social problems but may destabilize inclusion in local social networks.

This document discusses policy interventions to address poverty among the elderly in Portugal. It summarizes the aims, methodology, and key findings of an ongoing research project analyzing aging, poverty, and social exclusion. The summary outlines Portugal's increasing aging population and dependency ratio. It also notes policy efforts like the National Inclusion Plan and Integrated Support Services Plan, and some strategic programs developed. However, it finds current measures only address basic needs and underestimate involvement in decision-making. The conclusion calls for more needs-based, participatory, and integrated policies and services to better address aging poverty amid financial crises.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
