Social Impact Bonds: Promises and Pitfalls - Expert Seminar
- Expert seminar with the financial support of the European Commission - 15 April 2015, Paris, France
In recent years, population ageing has attracted the attention of research and policy advisors in all European countries. Several policy actions have been directed toward ensuring optimal long-term care (LTC) for elderly people while maintaining fiscal rationality. LTC systems are very different across all European countries. Their design is characterized by diverse arrangements for the provision of care/organization and financing. Despite general concerns, the Polish LTC system is still at the bottom of the pile in terms of the organization and provision of care.

Mutuals are businesses that are owned and controlled by their members, who may be employees, users or other stakeholders. The opportunity to boost productivity, together with the pressures on government budgets, is fuelling interest in mutualisation.
As a follow up to our 2/26/14 webinar, Social Impact Bonds 101, Robert Esposito and Shawn Pelsinger, two NYU Law and Social Enterprise Fellows, joined us to expand upon our original discussion with a deeper look into the growth of SIB's in the Unites States and the implications for the philanthropic sector. Our two experts took us through a number of recent developments around SIB's in the U.S., including the fate of guarantors, the growth of multiple-funding sources, the expanding position of investment banks for financing and the ultimate role of foundations and philanthropy. This was the second webinar in a four-part series with Public Allies.
On 11th February 2016 the Big Lottery Fund and CBO evaluation team ran a peer learning event for people developing SIBs related to health. These slides are from the workshop on working with investors.
On 4th December 2015 the Big Lottery Fund and CBO evaluation team ran a peer learning event for people developing SIBs related to employment, housing and crime. These slides are from the afternoon workshop on working with investors.
On Wednesday 14th December 2016, we launched a paper which reviews the present and proposed formula for means-testing adult social care in England.
In 2011, the Dilnot Commission recommended a cap of £35,000 on adult social care costs, and that the threshold for means-tested assistance be raised from £23,250 to £100,000 for those in residential care. This new paper by Cass Business School reviews the present formula for means-testing adult social care and the formula recommended by the Dilnot Commission, and finds fault with both.
Chaired by Baroness Sally Greengross OBE, Chief Executive of the ILC-UK, the launch included a keynote presentation from report author, Professor Les Mayhew, Professor of Statistics, Faculty of Actuarial Science and Insurance, Cass Business School, and a response from an expert panel of actuaries and related professionals.

ILC-UK Seminar - The Private Sector's Role in Care - supported by partnershipILC- UK
The foreword to the Government’s Vision stated that they “want people to have the freedom to choose the services that are right for them from a vibrant plural market”. Of course, for this to be possible there has to be adequate funding to support the development of a care market.
This seminar explored the role of the private sector in paying for care. We explored the different options for private sector engagement in care funding in the future. We considered how these models of engagement can be best made to work and consider what Government needs to do to facilitate. We explored the role of insurance and of equity release.
Les Mayhew presented his paper on the “Role of Private Finance in Paying for Long Term Care”. Chris Horlick from Partnership Assurance highlighted current and potential innovations in insurance. Andrea Rozario from Safe Home Income Plans (SHIP) explored issues relating to asset decumulation while Nick Starling from the ABI contributed with his comments on the role insurers play in care planning and Martin Green of the English Community Care Association (ECCA) responded from the perspective of a private sector care provider.
The schedule for this event was as follows:
4.10pm Introduction from Baroness Greengross
4.15pm Professor Les Mayhew “The Role of Private Finance in Paying for Long Term Care”
4.45pm Chris Horlick, Partnership Assurance. “The role of insurance in paying for care”

The DWP Review of Housing Benefit: reviewing and remodelling services for tenants with additional needs. This is 3 years old at time of posting in Slideshare: good advice doesn't age badly.
"Exempt Accommodation, Welfare Reform & Vulnerable Tenants": the slides that accompanied a series of briefings we ran. Things change fast so remember this was delivered in Autumn of 2013.
A presentation by Invest In Prevention, a Support Solutions Ltd initiative, which discusses the need for #preventative services for people with additional needs such as #MentalHealth, #LearningDisability, #SubstanceMisuse (#drugs & #alcohol), #Elders. It also focuses on the need for organisations and governments to measure the social and financial benefit of investing in prevention rather than waiting for people to fall into crisis and then have to provide emergency interventions, which are both costly and do not get at the root cause of the problem. The presentation also explores social and financial return on investment (#SROI).

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.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

18. Commissioning
The role of the Sector is meant to be
widening
There is a need for diversification of
services
A wider set of commissioning
relationships
19. Commissioning
What is strategically relevant?
Look at local priorities
Prevention, diversion, inclusion, community
benefit
Increasing interest in “Payment by
Results”
But who defines the outcomes?
Joint Commissioning still the Holy Grail
20. Commissioning
Ironically, public sector reform as a
consequence of financial retrenchment may
lead to this
A state of flux exists whilst the Statutory
Sector adjusts to the Government agenda
Problems for Providers in being heard
But “bottom-up” solutions are required
21. Where Do We Need To Be?
Remodelling & diversifying services
Collaborating where necessary & desirable
Influencing commissioning structures and
thinking

Adjusting Business Plans
Promoting preventative service models
Developing cost benefit, social benefit &
SROI arguments
