AWS October Webinar Series - AWS Lambda Best Practices: Python, Scheduled Job...Amazon Web Services
AWS Lambda lets you run code without provisioning or managing servers. We have introduced a few new features this year at re:Invent and would like to share with you some of the best practices.
This webinar will introduce you to scheduled AWS Lambda functions and how to use long running functions to handle large volume data ingestion and processing jobs. We will demonstrate how to use versioning to control which Lambda function version is being executed in your development, testing, and production environments. We will also show you how to run your Python code in AWS Lambda.
From Charity to Change: Social investment in selected Southeast Asian countriesJared Tham
Charity to Change defines social investing broadly for the region as including both impact investing as well as evolving practices in philanthropy. The study focuses on Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand and examines the emerging ecosystem for social investment in each of these countries, with a view to identifying gaps and obstacles to the advancement of the field. A section containing reports on current social investing developments in Cambodia and Vietnam is also included in this publication.

Members' needs analysis activity and "The Ripple Effect", building our membership network
COVID-19 has seriously tested the resiliency and sustainability of organisations, especially those in the nonprofit sector. The pandemic has further exacerbated their already precarious state and many Civil society organisations (CSOs) are under immense pressure to operate, survive, and thrive, while maintaining independence and continually generating funds to pursue planned operations and command strong recognition and influence.
They have been forced to adapt or to abandon the game, to face adversity through innovation or to fail while trying. Organisational and individual preparedness to manage change was tested also and many had to unlearn and relearn, to find new ways of working and developing resilience amidst the pandemic.
Since financing is a key pillar of organizational sustainability, I was invited to strengthen participants understanding, knowledge and practice in mobilizing resources more creatively. Aside the traditional channel of funding, there are 12 proven models of mobilizing resources for any civil society organisations in Africa, no matter its size, staff or strength.
Racial justice and the climate movementEPIPNational
A challenge as complex as climate change demands approaches that link its social and ecological dimensions. Importantly, the destructive effects of our fossilfuelbased way of life are uneven, harming some people more than others. The impacts of climate change are also uneven. For example, coastal storms, sea level rise, and drought disproportionately affect certain populations. Real solutions to the climate crisis will require a significant level of socioeconomic change, as we decarbonize many sectors of society including energy, agriculture, and transportation, to name a few. Socioeconomic restructuring on this scale raises the critical issue of equity: solutions must work for everyone.
To best create climate solutions that meet the needs of everyone, we must create space for historically less privileged populations to lead. A more inclusive and intersectional movement will allow all groups to learn how patterns of oppression and privilege operate in our society, as well as, understand how they intersect with environmental justice and the ability to influence public policy. It will also build trusting relationships that leverage the power of diverse alliances and intersections, broadening our work beyond the confines of singleissue environmental organizing.
To that end, this webinar will answer the following: “How can we honor the intersectionality of climate change in a way that invites historically excluded populations to lead us toward an unstoppable climate movement?” Participants will walk away with guidance and lessons learned from philanthropists and practitioners who are applying an inclusive and intersectional approach to strengthen their work.

Kenes Asia: Views on Medical Societies and Congress Developments in Asia
1. (Scientific) Societies and their Congresses in Asia
Trends and challenges
Presented by
2 October 2013
Marcel Ewals, Director, Business Developmet
2. 2
ABOUT KENES
• Established in 1965
• Exclusively serving medical & scientific organisations
• 122 Long Term Clients; 24 receive AMC services
• 3,000 congresses in 104 cities; 115,000 attendees
annually
• 18 offices worldwide with over 400 staff including Kenes
Asia (35 staff): Bangkok, Singapore, New Delhi
• Kenes Asia now cooperates with more than 30
societies
3. How do societies operate in Asia
• Volunteer organizations
• Country members from the
region (Federation)
• No permanent Secretariat
• Few lobbying/consulting
functions
• Key function is Education
• Secondary function is
networking and knowledge
exchange
4. 4
Key historical influencers in the region..
Philippines
Australia
Japan
These countries
have since post
WWII been driving
the region
Philippine drive
was by
infrastructure,
and less
research
leadership
(1950-1980’s)
5. 5
Today, most regions are developing..
The balance of
research and
convention
infrastructure
has balanced
out in the last
15 years, with
major research
coming from all
Asian countries
6. Asia’s scientific community growth is led by:
• More research
• Growing middle
class
• Access to medical
treatment
• Better education
• Sizeable
population
• Increasing youth
8. 8
Volatility in events halts growth in Asia
• Asia’s diversity provides
challenges
• Industry support varies
• Attendance levels go up and down
• Audience quality depends on location
• Scientific excellence based on local
expertise
• Assign to local Organizing
Committee
• Investment and professionalism differs
per host society
• Local interests lead over regional
interest
• Changing rules per event as there is no
central rule adaptation process, leading
to price changes, experience
influences etc.
10. In comparison, European Societies:
• Centralized and
organised
• Location based on
best results
• Locals are
independent from
success
• Created steady
growth
• Transparency to all is
key
• Funding for research,
etc…
11. Meanwhile in Asia:
• Funding
– Money stays with LOC
– Not enough funds are left for
Society to evolve
– No membership value is
developed
• Importance
– As good as your last event
– New players can take over
13. The Road Map requirements
• Move “self
interest” to
society, not
member
• Multi year
strategic plan,
rather than year-
on-year
• Have core values
as objective

Historically, the Philippines was one of the first big destinations in Asia (60’s) and influences of Societies, followed by Australia, but Japan has had the leading hand.
But today, the strong research are also influencers of conferences. Reference ICCA
