Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

What is the point of small housing associations.pptxPaul Smith
Given the small scale of housing associations and their relative high cost per home what is the point of them and how do we justify their continued existance
2. Collection Disaster Planning in Australia
A Background
♦ In 1985 the NLA suffered a catastrophic fire
♦ The NLA fire identified the need for a Collection
Disaster Plan – like all other Australian cultural
institutions at the time, they didn’t have one!
♦ Through this experience the NLA became a leader in
collection disaster planning
♦ By 1988 the first NLA Collection Disaster Plan was
developed with a focus on preparedness and
prevention
♦ Around this time it became a mandatory requirement
for cultural institutions to develop and implement
their collection emergency plans
♦ Emergency/Disaster Plans are now part of broader
business continuity frameworks and strategies
♦ Many cultural institutions now maintain a strong
focus on plan maintenance, staff awareness and
training
3. What is a Collection Disaster?
♦ A sudden or great misfortune or
calamity
♦ A sudden calamitous event
producing great material damage,
loss and distress
♦ An incident involving an
organisation and its collection
material that results in damage,
loss or restricted access
4. The Disaster Preparedness Plan
♦ Supports and assists those
responsible for managing and caring
for collections, buildings and fittings
to maintain disaster awareness,
preparedness and prevention
♦ Provides policy and direction in
disaster planning
♦ Assists in reducing risks to collection
materials and the buildings that
house them
♦ Covers all collection items, including
external objects managed by
museums and travelling exhibitions
♦ It applies to all workers, volunteers,
venues and facilities
5. Focus on Preparedness Identified Prime Risks
The Plan is a perpetual policy and manual for routine disaster preparedness
and prevention activities. It ensures effective prevention activities and
procedures are maintained to mitigate prime risks to the collection
♦Identifies key staff and their responsibilities and roles
♦Outlines key preparedness actions by collection, priority, display, storage, on-
site and off-site
♦Identifies supplies and their locations
♦Outlines post-emergency procedures
6. Prevention and Preparedness
♦ Risks are identified and assessed
♦ Collections are prioritised
♦ Resources are identified
♦ Plans are prepared, updated and/or
refined
♦ Key roles are allocated
♦ Funding and support is identified
♦ Building maintenance and repair
♦ Good housekeeping
♦ Good storage
♦ Correct handling
♦ Staff/volunteer training
♦ General staff awareness is raised
♦ Resources, equipment and supplies
are identified and put into place
7. Awareness and Training
♦ Many incidents can be reduced in seriousness or eliminated if staff and
volunteers are aware of and trained in:
– Good collection handling techniques
– Good collection storage techniques
– How to recognise and respond to an emergency situation
– The risks to collection material
– Good housekeeping practices
– How to recognise and report potential problems
♦ To ensure staff and volunteers remain aware of collection disaster issues,
training and refresher sessions should be held once a year
♦ Orientation training sessions for new people should include a collection
disaster awareness component
♦ Managers should ensure awareness of
collection disaster issues is
maintained
8. Know Your Buildings, Know your Region
♦ Cyclone
♦ Flood
♦ Fire & smoke
♦ Earthquake
♦ Storm
♦ Terrorist attack
♦ Weather
♦ Sewage
♦ Water leak
♦ Poor storage & handling
♦ Mould
♦ Equipment malfunction
♦ Insect and vermin infestation
♦ Vandalism
♦ High dust levels
♦ Accident
♦ Theft
♦ Building works/renovations
♦ And many more
9. Conducting A Risk Assessment
♦ Identify those occurrences which pose the greatest threat to your
organisation and its collections
♦ Look at past incidents. Unless your building and organisation are brand
new there will be a history of past incidents
♦ Look at the building/s. Are they poorly maintained? Does the roof leak?
Plumbing may be old. Is it secure? Plant and equipment? Electrical wiring
and equipment?
♦ Look at the geographic location. Near a water source? In an unstable area?
In an area known for bad weather?
♦ Look at the way collections are housed. Are they housed below ground or
near plant and equipment and plumbing? Are they over crowded? Are
they secure?
♦ Look at the way collections are used or accessed. Are they secure? Is public
access and use supervised? Do staff know how to correctly handle
material?
♦ Re assess risk regularly or even on a daily basis as needed
10. A useful model for conducting risks
High
Probability ↑ 2 1
4 3
Low High
Effect →
11. Response:
Knowing Your Responsibilities
♦ Collection emergency response can be separated into two phases:
– Immediate response actions
– Short term response actions
♦ Long term actions are recovery actions
♦ Assessment of the situation noting:
– if the area is safe
– source of the emergency
– if collection material is affected
– informing people who need to know urgently
12. Emergency Supplies
Disaster Bins and other Supplies
♦ Supplies are always available and
accessible
♦ Locations are detailed in the plan
♦ As part of post-response, bins and
supplies will be re-stocked and
prepared for next time
13. Supplies May Include
Material Use
Bins - plastic Catching water
Broom Cleaning up, moving water
Buckets - 10 litre Catching water, cleaning up
Dust pan & brush Cleaning up
Emergency action instructions Reference
Extension lead Flexible power source
Fire extinguisher - CO2 (side) Fighting small fire
Garbage bags - 20 pack Carrying material
Gloves – rubber Health and safety

Torch and batteries During blackouts
Garbage bags Containing / carrying material
Plastic bags Containing / carrying material
Protective clothes, hard hats Health and safety
Tube - long plastic Directing away minor leaks
Chemical spill kit Contain spills
15. Evacuation of Material?
♦ Should collection material be
removed or evacuated when
an emergency involving it is
discovered?
♦ There is no correct
answer but this issue
should be addressed in
the plan to prevent
confusion.
16. Recovery (Long Term) actions
♦ Planning and decision making (options)
♦ Communication
♦ Evacuation and treatment of affected
materials
♦ Rectification of the affected site
♦ Restoration of access and services to
clients
♦ Assessment of the plan’s effectiveness
and reasons for the occurrence of the
emergency
18. General Principles
When an incident is discovered some general principles to follow are:
♦ Human safety has precedence over protection of collection material
– Make sure affected areas are safe to enter
– Do not risk personal safety to ‘rescue’ collection material
♦ Respond appropriately and urgently
– Accurately assess the situation if possible
– Report the incident to those who need to know
– If safe to do so, take action to protect collection material
♦ Know your response procedures but also use your initiative
– All staff should have an emergency help sheet
– Help sheets should be located with all emergency supplies
♦ Seek advice and help from others
♦ Maintain communication
♦ Plan well. The faster the correct action, the better the result. So take time
to ensure you plan a correct and appropriate response
