The Northwest Area Foundation provided a $50,000 grant to support opportunity mapping in the Puget Sound region of Washington state. This funding allowed the Kirwan Institute to conduct an analysis of housing, transportation, jobs, education and other factors. The resulting maps showed that low-income families of color lacked access to areas of opportunity. City planners are now using these maps to guide billions in transportation investments to increase access for disadvantaged communities. In addition, the opportunity mapping approach has been adopted by the federal government to inform housing policy nationwide. The small initial grant has thus had significant local, regional and national impact on improving equity and access.

Neighborhood Opportunity Mapping for Regional Equity
Neighborhood Opportunity Mapping for Regional EquityKirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity
- Neighborhood opportunity mapping analyzes access to opportunities like education, employment, transportation, and health across regions to understand spatial inequities.
- Maps are powerful visual tools that can efficiently display large amounts of data and tell stories to inform people and help solve problems.
- Research shows living in high poverty, segregated neighborhoods limits access to opportunities and success due to conditions and isolation from resources. This cumulative impact perpetuates inequities over time.
- Opportunity mapping assesses where communities with access to opportunities exist and where underserved communities lack access, to understand and address inequities at a regional scale.211 Healthy City Webinar 3 25 10

Social mapping is a visual method used to understand the social structure and demographics of a community. It shows the location of households and distribution of different groups like gender, age, wealth. It can be used to identify social groups, assess asset distribution, and learn about local institutions. The process involves selecting local analysts to discuss social differences and perceptions. Analysts then work together to produce a map showing household locations and characteristics. While useful, social mapping becomes complex with large communities, requiring adaptation.

AGILEEE Friday 17:15 Talk
The original title of this talk is "Agile Testing, Uncertainty, Risk, and Why It All Works." That's still the topic of this talk, however after hearing so many misconceptions about testing simply because the name "Test" carries so much baggage in our industry, I decided to reframe my talk so as to avoid using the word "Test" at all in the first half. Instead, we'll focus on how fast feedback supports learning and empirical evidence trumps speculation.
Notes on Simulation and GHDL
This document provides an overview of simulation using GHDL for verifying digital designs. It discusses that simulation is important for detecting errors in a design early to reduce costs. Verification through simulation involves creating test benches to test a design against different input combinations.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
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.
