Rapid Care Analysis - Oxfam's practical tool for local development programmes...Oxfam GB
Oxfam's work on care aims to find solutions to the challenge of providing effective care whilst also ensuring women's rights.
Oxfam has developed a Rapid Care Analysis (RCA) to assess context-specific patterns of unpaid household work and care of people. Designed to integrate into existing tools on livelihoods, food, security or vulnerability, it makes visible how care responsibility impacts women's time, health or mobility, and identifies practical interventions to help ensure that women can participate fully in and benefit equally from development programmes.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Gender Transformative Approaches (GTAs): Best practices for asset interventions in agriculture projects in Africa and Asia
1. Gender Transformative Approaches (GTAs)
Best practices for asset interventions in agriculture projects in Africa
and Asia
Elizabeth M. Waithanji
Livestock and Fish Gender Working Group Workshop and Planning Meeting
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 14-18 October 2013
2. Presentation Outline
• The GAAP project impact pathway
• Types of interventions
• Asset categories for each project
• Adjustments – Gender transformative?
• Impacts post adjustments
• Conclusions and recommendations
2
4. Types of interventions: Different Asset
Enhancement Interventions
Assets: Natural, Human, Physical, Social, Financial and Political
Intervention Country Projects:
• Bangladesh – capacity building in form of free training of dairy
farmers groups in livestock production and health, as well as
linking groups to markets by providing bulking and chilling
facilities, hence, natural, human, financial and social assets
enhanced
• Kenya and Tanzania – money maker pumps bought by farmers,
hence, physical and financial capital enhanced
• Mozambique – free high yielding cows distributed and
receiving farmers trained on production and health, hence,
natural, financial and human assets enhanced
4
5. Adjustments to Enhance Best Practices:
Gender Transformative Approaches (GTA)?
• Mozambique – early in the project
– Trained a second household member – did not specify gender but
often it was wife of HH head
• Bangladesh – mid course adjustment
– Men encouraged to accompany their wives to attend sick animals so
that women could use skills as community animal health workers
• Kenya – late in the project
– Pump layaway program whereby women groups were encouraged to
pay instalments for pumps which were given to them using the
merry-go-round model
5
6. Impacts – Positive Across All Sites
• Increased household
– production
– Income and
– assets (including pump ownership by women)
• Improved wellbeing in terms of access to
–
–
–
–
More nutrients
Better hygiene (Bangladesh and Mozambique)
Education
Healthcare
• Enhanced self esteem for women and men
– Role models
– Knowledgeable (especially women on dairy hygiene and animal
health)
– Leaders and providers
6
7. Impacts - Negative
• Women’s work load increased disproportionately to the increase
men’s workload
– Mozambique, men paid additional labourers to do the extra work and
women delegated house and other work to children and existing servants
• Culture of women seclusion emphasized
– Bangladesh – Seclusion emphasized (women stayed at home and did the
work whereas men delivered the milk to the collection points in the market;
men accompanied women animal health workers as they visited cows to
treat them)
• Women’s and men’s crops redefined
– Kenya and Tanzania – men owned one off harvest and sale crops like green
maize, cabbage and tomatoes, whereas women became owners of repeated
harvest green leafy vegetables such as kale, amaranth, and spinach
• Women’s control of income and assets affected negatively
– Bangladesh, women’s control declined, joint control increased
– Kenya, women (from MHH) could not openly claim pump ownership
7
8. KickStart PID – Kenya Men
We cannot say
that we own the
pumps even if
we do… we’ll be
in big trouble.
Once, my wife talked
about owning bananas
on my land… I chopped
them down to show her
who is in charge here.
If he sells
something that I
bought and I did
not want to be
sold, I can report
him to the chief
and have it
confiscated and
returned to me.
8
9. KickStart PID – Tanzania Women
There is hardly time
to groom ourselves …
we no longer iron
our clothes.
In case of a divorce,
he would have to go…
I cannot leave my
marital home. It is my
right to stay!
9
10. Conclusion and Recommendations for GTA
• A woman buying an asset, having it registered in her name
and, hence, owning it does not signify control of use of the
asset or income/benefit accrued through it
– E.g. women from MHH owning pumps (Kenya) or women animal
health workers (Bangladesh)
• What needs to be transformed is the actual access to, and
control of, benefits accruing from the asset
– At least some access and control of milk income by women from
Mozambique and Bangladesh and crop income for women from
Tanzania and Kenya
• Women knowing their rights and having them protected by
the law, protects them from dispossession of assets
– e.g. Women in Kenya and Tanzania
