This document provides an overview of MigRasia, an organization that aims to address problems faced by migrant workers across Asia through various initiatives. MigRasia acts as an incubator for solutions by bringing together educators, lawyers and advocates, social enterprises, data aggregators, technologists, and storytellers. It summarizes the work of each component, such as providing education programs and legal assistance to workers, incubating social businesses, aggregating data on industry trends, developing technologies to help workers, and sharing stories to raise awareness. The ultimate goal is to create systemic change through collaboration across different sectors.
The document discusses implementing social networking for local councils and organizations. It covers listening to conversations on social media, starting conversations with youth, and overcoming barriers internally. Key points include that social media allows for two-way dialogue rather than one-way communication, youth are interested in participating on social networks and want safe, official spaces, and changing internal policies to allow social media access while establishing guidelines.

The Home Office, like the rest of the UK government, is involved in a huge effort to modernise service delivery in line with the possibilities offered by the internet and the digital age.

The "Pipeline Problem" and Other Myths About Workplace DiversityAtlassian
If you're having a hard time filling your hiring pipeline with a diverse mix of candidates, you're not alone. You're also not looking in the right places. The so-called "pipeline problem" is a convenient scapegoat for tech's slow progress on the diversity front, but it's nothing more than a cop-out and a myth.
Companies that get serious about installing the right "plumbing" find that their pipeline problems disappear rather quickly. (Fancy that!) In this talk, you'll learn how to start attracting and seeking out talent that represents the makeup of the communities where you live and operate. You'll also learn how to build a culture were diverse employees can find a sense of belonging and bring their full selves to the table.

During BDPA’s Annual Conference, Charles Eaton, CEO, Creating IT Futures, presented the research, along with lessons learned from projects in Chicago that are preparing young people for entry-level IT positions.

Abstract: Despite the strides made recently for women in business, female tech professionals continue to be outpaced by their male counterparts. According to Silicon Valley Bank’s Innovation Economy Outlook survey, less than 50 percent of technology companies have women in the C-suite or serving on the board of directors. Only 19 percent of CIO positions for Fortune 250 companies are held by women.
In fact, the gender disparity among technology professionals seems to be increasing in spite of recent gains throughout the workplace. Fewer women are joining the tech workforce and the numbers of female students studying technology is in decline—today only 18 percent of computer science majors are women, compared to 37 percent in the mid-1980s. Add in a continued wage imbalance and a high turnover rate for female tech professionals mid-career and it is clear that there is work to be done. How can we encourage more women to join the technology field and insurance technology in particular? What can be done to break down the barriers to success as a female technology professional?

- Total profit for the Global 500 companies fell nearly 15% in 2014 mainly due to lower oil prices and changes in US mortgage company profits.
- The winner of the National Schools Accounting Olympiad was announced along with the top three placing students.

This document discusses implications for international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) in light of changing global trends and issues affecting power dynamics. It suggests that INGOs reflect on developing a bi-cultural identity, use monitoring and evaluation strategies that incorporate diverse forms of knowledge, and examine whether their governance and leadership reinforce existing power structures or model alternative approaches. INGOs are also encouraged to consider the long-term impact of the narratives they create and whether these could include perspectives on inter-generational justice.
The document discusses developmental leadership and evaluation approaches. It provides examples of the Warlpiri Education and Training Trust's (WETT) monitoring and evaluation methods from 2008-2018, which included both quantitative and qualitative data collection. It notes that mixed methods are needed for evaluation but that the right approach depends on politics, interests, and worldviews. Developmental leadership and appropriate governance may help manage different stakeholder interests and perspectives in evaluation.
