The Role of the ADB in Mobilising Private Finance for Agenda 2030
This document discusses how multilateral development banks can mobilize private finance to support the UN's 2030 Agenda goals. It outlines a framework where MDBs focus on addressing market failures through regulation, policy advice, and public-private partnerships to "crowd in" private sector investment. MDBs can catalyze both direct private investment in projects they finance as well as indirect investment in related areas through demonstrations of new markets and risk mitigation. The document provides examples of how MDB investment and advisory services can mobilize total financing that is several times the size of their initial investment.

1) Islamic finance has significant potential to contribute to achieving the SDGs due to the large and rapidly growing assets in the industry and its underlying socially responsible principles.
2) Zakat in particular could have a greater impact if contributions were more formally channeled through certified organizations to support development programs, rather than informal individual gifts.
3) There are opportunities to innovate new financing models and strengthen institutions to better align Islamic finance practices like zakat with the goals and priorities of the SDGs.

Overview of Long-term Thinking and Planning in Singapore – Government Foresig...UNDP in Asia and the Pacific
Soulbreath Consulting provides an overview of long-term planning in Singapore. Key points include Singapore's emphasis on long-term national policies since independence, driven initially by political leadership and later involving civil servants and stakeholders. Scenario planning has been used as a foresight tool since the 1980s to develop alternative future scenarios and strengthen strategy. Examples of scenario planning efforts by government agencies are described. The evolution of foresight in Singapore is discussed, from leadership-driven in the 1960s-1970s to increasingly involving stakeholders from the 2000s onward. Various foresight reports addressing issues like technology, the environment, and an aging society are also summarized.Localizing the 2030 Agenda in SIDS: Palau’s Aspirations with the SDGs

Impact Investment and 2030 Agenda
Global impact investing has reached $22.1 billion in 2016, representing 29% annual growth. Approximately 45% of impact assets are in emerging economies due to large unmet demand. Impact investing in India reached $5.2 billion from 2010 to 2016, driven by population growth, economic growth, stable financial markets, and large social needs. Investments have diversified across sectors such as education, healthcare, and agriculture beyond the initial focus on clean energy. The Indian government also plays a key role in catalyzing impact investing through various policies and initiatives. The sector is expected to reach $6-8 billion annually by 2025 based on continued social needs and sector growth. Successful impact investments have shown returns ranging from -46% to

This document outlines a framework for addressing climate change, disasters, and poverty at global, regional, national and local levels. It discusses establishing global principles and treaties to coordinate policies, plans and advocacy efforts. Regional organizations would implement policies, legislation, and capacity building. National governments would focus on local governance, coordination, and monitoring with civil society and local authorities. The goal is for approaches to scale up beyond pilots through cross-scale communication, cooperation, decentralization, and shared learning to allow for replication.Local and Community-Driven Development
This document discusses the need to rethink development models to focus on empowering communities and building from the bottom up. It argues that development happens through local, community-driven efforts, not through top-down approaches. Some key points made include: listening to communities systematically, allowing their voices to be heard; redesigning services and business models from the bottom-up rather than the top-down; providing supportive policies, services, and infrastructure to communities; trusting communities to drive their own development; and expanding local services using community-based models. Examples from other countries show how empowering communities through approaches like community-based planning and local funding can generate social capital and positive development outcomes.
Reut Report: Civil Resilience Network
The document outlines a conceptual framework for improving civil resilience in Israel at both the local and national level. It proposes establishing a Civil Resilience Network (CRN) made up of thousands of public, private, and nonprofit organizations committed to resilience. The CRN would work to instill a culture of preparedness through legislation, training, and collaboration between different sectors. It would help map needs, capacities, and plans to function during crises. The goal is to build a resilient society able to withstand and recover from emergencies through a combination of top-down leadership and bottom-up community mobilization.
Community-Driven Development And Local Governance In Haiti
The document discusses a study examining how community-driven development (CDD) programs affect local governance in Haiti. CDD empowers community groups to control planning and resources for local projects. The study aims to determine the extent and ways CDD impacts local governments and under what conditions. It outlines Haiti's context, a CDD program called PRODEP, and a theoretical framework expecting local officials to compete, accommodate, or undermine CDD. The methodology matches CDD and non-CDD communities to estimate CDD's average effect. Insights from the field note local governments' limited capacity but respected authority.

The Virtual Social Space discussed social cohesion in the Middle East and North Africa region over 8 sessions with an average of 80 attendees per session. Key discussion points included defining social cohesion, how digitalization can include citizens, strengthening governance, and youth participation in state-society dialogue. Maintaining public spaces, the relationship between rule of law and human rights, and including people with disabilities were also covered. Key recommendations were that social cohesion is still relevant after the Arab Spring, respects countries' diversity, finds the right entry points, involves different groups, addresses challenges collectively, and fosters social cohesion on a micro level in fragile contexts.
The Context of Violent Extremism in Kenya2
The document discusses the threat of violent extremism (VE) in Kenya, particularly in coastal regions. It notes that VE is a complex issue with social, political, and economic drivers rather than purely religious causes. A multi-pronged approach is needed involving security measures, community engagement, and addressing root causes. The framework involves prevention to build resilience, intervention for individuals, and interdiction for security. Collaboration is important between government, civil society, and communities to counter VE through inclusive development, democratic participation, and building national identity.

- Many civil society organizations around the world have faced deteriorating conditions in recent years, with increasing restrictions on their operations through laws and regulations. This includes mandatory registration requirements, vague reasons for denying registration, and restrictions on foreign funding.
- A global partnership of civil society organizations has developed a framework to assess the enabling environment for CSOs, looking at constitutional protections of rights, laws and regulations, and the ability of CSOs to engage in policy and access information.
- Evidence shows that in many countries, governments have imposed onerous registration requirements, brought politically motivated legal actions against dissenting groups, and restricted the ability of CSOs to receive foreign funding for advocacy work. While problems exist even in democratic countries

Sexual Violence Against Women and Girls in War
This document discusses the widespread issue of sexual violence against women and girls during armed conflicts and in post-conflict settings. It provides statistics showing tens of thousands of cases of war-related rape in Bosnia, Kosovo, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. Women and children make up the majority of victims in modern conflicts. Sexual violence is used systematically to destabilize communities, quell resistance, and advance ethnic cleansing through forced impregnation and HIV transmission. After conflicts, risks of violence continue during flight, in refugee camps, and women face exploitation and trafficking in reconstruction when their needs are not addressed. Survivors suffer immense short and long-term health consequences physically and psychologically.

Lecture By Antonio Casilli (Sociologist and Professor of Digital Humanities), September 18th 2015, Centennial Memorial Hall of the College of Liberal Arts, Yonsei UniversityGender Based Violence in a Post Emergency Situation
This document discusses gender-based violence after natural disasters. It summarizes that GBV increases after disasters due to trauma, dispersed families exposing women, and relief efforts prioritizing urgent needs over safety. GBV is manifested through lower self-esteem, mental health issues, and risks like child marriage. Reducing GBV requires understanding social structures, involving women in disaster response, and having women represented on response teams distributing relief. Current policy gaps include a lack of gender perspective in disaster frameworks and response indicators. The conclusion calls for seeing women as strong forces of resistance and using disasters as opportunities for societal change.
Social surveillance
Social media enables constant surveillance of users by friends and others with access to their profiles and information. Recent research shows that people often do not adjust privacy settings on social media sites like Facebook even when given opportunities. Law enforcement also uses information publicly available on social media to track down suspects, as one example showed where a suspect was located after posting his location on Facebook. Overall social media allows extensive surveillance of users by both private individuals and companies collecting personal data.
FULL DISS FOR TURN IT IN
This document provides a summary of 3 key points from the literature review section of a dissertation analyzing the Black Mirror episode "The Entire History of You":
1. Technological determinism argues that technology drives social change, while others believe society shapes technology. McLuhan viewed technology as extensions of humans, but critics say it ignores human agency.
2. Privacy has eroded with new technologies like social media that give access to people's personal lives. However, others argue technology itself is neutral and how it's used determines effects on privacy.
3. The dissertation will analyze how "The Entire History of You" represents issues of privacy, surveillance and how technology impacts relationships and identity in a dystopian future

This document discusses the aims of supervision and different sociological perspectives on supervision, including the network society, risk society, and surveillance society. It contrasts the panopticon model of supervision, based on surveillance and control, with the connecticon model, which uses networks to connect people and share knowledge. Various technologies are described that could enable surveillant or reflective approaches to supervision, and issues around implementing technologies in supervision practice are raised.
UN Security Council Res 1325 on Women, Peace and Security advocacy study
A strong correlation between the sex of United Nations (UN) peace operation managers and their advocacy for the role of women in peacebuilding was found in an internet study carried out in May 2008. Senior female UN managers involved in peace processes are ten times more likely than male colleagues publicly to address women's roles as peacebuilders, yet of the sixty-six Special Representatives of the UN Secretary-General (SRSG), Deputy Special Representatives of the UN Secretary-General (DSRSG), and Special Envoys addressing peacebuilding who were listed on the Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO) web site in May 2008, only six were women. In view of the large numbers of women who become refugees or are internally displaced due to armed conflict, it is paramount that peace processes include them at all levels and in all aspects on an equal footing with men. Appointing more women to senior level positions in the UN is one way to achieve this aim. Nobel Peace Prize recipient Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is featured on page 8 in this presentation
Privacy in the age of surveillance
This document discusses privacy and surveillance in the modern, networked society. It explores how the rise of technologies like CCTV, web tracking, biometrics, and vast data collection centers have changed concepts of privacy and enabled unprecedented government and corporate surveillance. However, surveillance can also serve purposes like crime prevention, and how it is interpreted depends on one's values and the goals of the technologies involved. Whether surveillance or privacy should take precedence is an ongoing debate in this new age of connection and information-sharing.
Internet surveillance: past, present and future
This document discusses the history and future of internet surveillance. It describes the UKUSA intelligence alliance between the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand for signals intelligence cooperation since WWII. It outlines various programs and methods for intercepting communications signals via satellites, submarines, and undersea cables. It also discusses the interception of data at communication hubs and the increasing collection of social media and other online data. The conclusion recognizes the vast resources spent on surveillance and the challenges of managing exponentially growing data collection.

United Nations Peacekeeping
The document provides an overview of the history and evolution of United Nations peacekeeping operations. It discusses how peacekeeping began as a concept to create physical barriers between states but evolved to include more complex multidimensional agreements and state-building. It notes several "generations" of peacekeeping from focusing on ceasefires to including civil-military operations. It also discusses the expansion of peacekeeping in the 1990s, failures in Somalia, Rwanda and Bosnia, and subsequent reforms recommended in the 2000 Brahimi report to improve UN peacekeeping efforts.
Surveillance Society
This document discusses the concept of a surveillance society and provides details on various types of surveillance. It describes how surveillance is used by governments and law enforcement to maintain social control and prevent criminal activity, but that civil rights groups are concerned this could limit political and personal freedoms. Different forms of surveillance are outlined, including computer monitoring, telephone tapping, cameras, social media analysis, biometrics, drones, and corporate practices. Both benefits and criticisms of widespread surveillance are presented.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
