21 листопада за ініціативи делегації України відбулося засідання Ради Безпеки ООН з питання захисту об'єктів критичної інфраструктури від терористичних атак.
Зокрема, на засіданні виступив начальник Головного управління контррозвідувального захисту інтересів держави у сфері економічної безпеки СБУ Сергій Семочко.
«У 2015 році Україна затвердила нову Стратегію національної безпеки, відповідно до якої захист критичної інфраструктури є одним з пріоритетних напрямків державної політики», – повідомив він на початку виступу.
Представник СБУ додав, що Україна, з урахуванням атак на свої ключові інфраструктурні об’єкти у 2014 – 2016 роках, уже має певний досвід з їх виявлення та ліквідації наслідків. У 2014 році зафіксовано 1240 зовнішніх втручань у діяльність об'єктів критичної інфраструктури, у 2015 році – 865, у 2016 – трохи більше 200.
За словами С.Семочка, враховуючи сучасні виклики у сфері безпеки, і перш за все еволюції терористичних загроз, Україна розробляє власну законодавчу базу щодо захисту критичної інфраструктури.

User Expertise Characterization across Multiple Social NetworksTU Delft
In this work of Master thesis, we target three platforms related to software development (StackOverflow, GitHub, and Twitter). One of the first contributions is the design and building of a database on these three platforms, as a result of a complex phase of crawling, extraction and matching of 58K user profiles and their respective
interaction networks. By capitalising on this dataset, we characterise different types of user expertise within and across professional-oriented online platforms, and operationalise the notions of ubiquitous and specialist expertise. We investigate how personal and relational triggering stimuli impact on the within- and across-network
expert activities; how the users’ reputation vary across networks; and how they tend to form communities in different networks. Results show the importance of identifying and analysing different types of expertise traits across social platforms, as a mean to better characterise expertise and its online manifestation.

A preliminary assessment of the financial feasibility of basic income emily...Emily Van de Walle
The financial feasibility of unconditionally granting every citizen an equal fixed monthly income, known as basic income, is taken into scrutiny in this dissertation. This is achieved by a static cost estimation of a wide variety of basic income proposals as well as an assessment of the cost savings on the social security system that may be achieved through the introduction of basic income.
As per recommendation by my promoter, prof. dr. Erreygers, I am currently working on an article that is based on the findings of my master's thesis with the objective of having the article published in an economic scientific journal.
Investment treaties: What they are and why they matterIIED
This is a presentation, introduced by Lorenzo Cotula, team leader of the Legal Tools team at the International Institute for Environment and Development, in a IIED webinar on civil society advocacy on investment treaties in February 2015
This presentation introduces investment treaties – what they are and why they matter.
The webinar focused on how CSOs can scrutinise and advocate on investment treaties, learning from lessons in the Philippines and Malaysia.
The lessons from Malaysia on 'Engaging the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement' are from Fauwz Abdul Aziz, of the Idris institute for Research (Malay Economic Action Council).
The lessons from the Philippines were shared by Joseph Perugganan, from Focus on the Global South.

Preliminary findings from OECD field visits for the project: Enhancing EU Mining Regional Ecosystems to Support the Green Transition and Secure Mineral Raw Materials Supply.
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
Monitoring Health for the SDGs - Global Health Statistics 2024 - WHOChristina Parmionova
The 2024 World Health Statistics edition reviews more than 50 health-related indicators from the Sustainable Development Goals and WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work.

2. Facts
A dimension of social justice. Others include poverty prevention,
equitable education, access to labor market, social cohesion and lack of
discrimination, access to health services.
● Seven years after the global economic crisis in the vast majority of
EU states - with a few exceptions like Czech Republic, Germany,
Luxembourg, the UK, and Poland –social cohesion is in a worse state.
● ALERT: the gap between the generations has widened considerably
since the crisis began. In most countries pensions and benefits for
older people did not shrink as much as incomes for the younger
population during the crisis, if at all.
● Policy Path: abandon austerity - boost investment - inclusive growth -
social cohesion
3. Solution Paths/EU level
➔ from blanket austerity to Six Pack Austerity to ECB
expansionary policy.
➔ change of mind: stronger domestic demand based on
faster wage increases in high-surplus countries and
greater investment throughout the Union
➔ public debt consolidation, lower interest rate payments,
partial write-off
➔ more flexibility in the Stability Pact
➔ extensive and inclusive investment plan - but for all
➔ public investment plans (digital, 4th industrial revolution,
networks, transportation, environment)
4. ● Youth employment initiative, Youth guarantee and
better implementation mechanisms at the national
level to address the available skills - existing Address
Jobs mismatch (cross-border function)
● Basic universal income and minimum wage to be
combined with national social safety nets
● Reducing bureaucracy regarding the mutual
recognition of qualifications and creating easier ways to
transfer social security entitlements to another country
to...
● Increase labor mobility
● More spending on RnD from the EU budget
● Active role of the European Ombudsman
● Certain clause in the next European Constitution
5. Solution paths/national level
Institutional interventions
Critics: We should leave
it to policy makers, not to
legislators. No generation
has the right to bind the
future of the next ones
through constitutional
clauses
● constitutional clause for future generations (general
clauses that acknowledge responsibility for future
generations, environmental clauses, fiscal clauses -
golden rule, eg. Germany, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania)
● parliamentary ombudsman that oversees whether
legislation or policies favour
● special ombudsman for intergenerational
equity/intergenerational solidarity
● good governance framework, evidence-based
legislation & preliminary control of all legislation by the
Ministries, the Parliament and the Ombudsman
● voting rights - lower age limit (e.g. Greece)
● participation quota in public office and party ballots
6. b. Policy interventions
- Investment in high-quality early-childhood
education to ensure equal opportunities
- provision of daycare and preschool facilities as
well as generous parental-leave schemes
(Sweden)
- separation of spouses’ income and individual
taxation
- sustainability of pension systems - incentives
to stay longer in working life in order to alleviate
the burden from the younger ones (Finland and
Denmark, 3-pilllar system)
- increase/boost investment in RnD (Finland,
Sweden, and Denmark->3% of GDP)
- promote environmental sustainability with
higher share of renewable energy sources, lower
greenhouse gas emissions
- subsidies in social security contributions for
the young
- investment incentives for businesses that
employ young and jobless
7. C. Political Challenge:
‘WE, THE PRECARIAT”
➔ Address the precariat as a ‘class-in-itself’ and unaware
of its shared characteristics. It is in no way tied to the
political left but vulnerable to the extreme right. Unify the
aspirations and the claims of the precariat under a
new-class umbrella, that will question the existing
institutional and economic norms without being
surrendered to the sirens of the populist or extreme right.
➔ Open institutions and open parties. Incorporate digital
world with grass roots and collective actions on single
issues. Promote dialogue and continuous debate with all
societal and economic actors. Lead by example in the
realm of transparency. Youth Quota. Reform party
financing rules and abolish many of the privileges of the
MPs.
