Type 1 and type 2 diabetes differ in their onset and weight characteristics. Type 1 diabetes has a rapid onset and those with it tend to be underweight, while type 2 diabetes has a slow onset and those with it tend to be overweight. Another difference is the presence of antibodies - they are present in type 1 diabetes but not in type 2. Risk factors for type 2 diabetes include older age, obesity, family history and physical inactivity. Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes are characterized by high blood glucose levels, but they differ in their pathophysiology and risk factors.

Going Beyond Poor Journalism that Ignores the Poor - Nalaka GunawardeneNalaka Gunawardene
My presentation to the orientation workshop for Media Fellows on Poverty and Development, held in Colombo on 24 September 2016, and organised by Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA) and UNESCO.
Sri Lanka has recently been declared a Middle Income Country. Public expenditure on the social sector has declined as a percentage of the GDP and this has created widening inequalities. Poverty, therefore, is still a crucial issue, but it needs be understood from a more holistic perspective which considers aspects such as people’s capabilities, private and social assets, leisure (or lack of it), and attainment of social participation and security.
However, most media look at poverty from a purely economic perspective as a lack of money. A wider understanding on poverty would include democracy, good governance, rule of law, freedom of expression and media freedom as prerequisites for people to realise their full capabilities. In addition to the limited understanding of poverty, most media houses allocate little or no budget for field-based and investigative journalistic assignments on poverty related topics.
With the Media Fellowships on Poverty and Development, the Center for Poverty Analysis (CEPA) hopes to tackle this gap. Some 20 competitively selected journalists – drawn from print, broadcast and web media outlets in Sinhala, Tamil and English languages – are to be given a better understanding of the many dimensions of poverty.
These Media Fellows will have the opportunity to research and produce a story of their choice in depth and detail, but on the understanding that their media outlet will carry their story. Along the way, they will benefit from face-to-face interactions with senior journalists and development researchers, and also receive a grant to cover their field visit costs.
Science writer, columnist and blogger Nalaka Gunawardene is a member of Expert Panel that mentors Media Fellows on Poverty and Development.
Si le mouvement Open Data ouvre un nombre important de perspectives en termes de croissance et de développement de services urbains, force est de constater que la mise en œuvre de ces dynamiques freine de nombreux d’acteurs.
Parmi les principales contraintes, apparaît la difficulté de produire des services continus et contextuels, sans lesquels ni l’audience, ni les modèles économiques, ni les effets d’externalités ne seront au rendez-vous.
Forts de ce constat, 40 entreprises (grands groupes privés et PME) et acteurs publics ont travaillé et travaillent depuis trois ans dans le programme Datact à la construction d’alternatives, pour dépasser la simple ouverture des données et concevoir la mise en place d’une solution opérationnelle, sous la forme d’une régie de données, pensée autour de dynamiques de partages.
Modèles économiques, nouveaux services, valorisation des données personnelles… Ces questions posent la nécessité d’un "numérique politique" - qui ne soit plus une "politique numérique" sectorielle - qui permette d’élaborer une méthode innovante et durable de production, d’échange et de valorisation des données.
Entrer dans une démarche pro-active, prendre en main les données : ce sont les objectifs que se donne le programme Datact 3, au cours duquel nous coproduirons des nouveaux services, avec tous les acteurs et parties prenantes du système : publics, privés et usagers.
