An Automated Snowball Census of the Political Web - JITP 2011Abe Gong
Working abstract: This paper solves a persistent methodological problem for social scientists studying the political web: representative sampling. Virtually all existing studies of the political web are based on incomplete samples, and therefore lack generalizability. In this paper, I combine methods from computer science and sampling theory to conduct an automated snowball census of the political web and constructs an all-but-complete index of English political websites. I check the robustness of this index, use it to generate descriptive statistics for the entire political web, and demonstrate that studies based on ad hoc sampling strategies are likely to be biased in important ways. In future research, this bias can be eliminated by using this index as a sampling universe. In addition, the methods and open-source software presented here can be used to creating similar sampling frames for other online content domains.
Intersections between Poverty, Environment and Inclusive Growth: A Global Per...UNDP Policy Centre
Presentation by Ms. Leisa Perch from the International Policy Centre for Inclusive Growth (IPC-IG) at the II National Development Conference (CODE/IPEA). This presentation is based on largely on IPC-IG's Poverty in Focus magazine #23 and speaks to four key areas/messages: (i) Intersections of environmental risk and poverty and social risk and the environment are fundamental to the inclusiveness of growth; (ii) Both structural and situational in nature, they require solutions that focus on both participation and benefit-sharing; (iii)
Relevant policy innovations exist and need to be up-scaled; (iv) A focus on the quality of growth will be key in sustaining progress.
The paper arises many questions related to issues covered under the concept of sustainable development. Sustainable development mainly focuses on quality of life which is highly dependent upon use of natural resources and thus these resources must be sustained. The present concept of sustainable global enterprise will help to achieve three basic goals known as corporate responsibility, environmental protection and social responsiveness. The concept of sustainable development also focuses on issues related to women as they play a significant role in policy of sustainable development. Women issues are basically linked with population and fertility. The development process worldwide has contributed to increase in economic and social inequalities, environment degradation and has also led to growth in poverty.
Sustainable Agriculture And Environmental Protection Usda Weri Nri UnChristina Parmionova
The Brundtland Commission, formally the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED), known by the name of its Chair Gro Harlem Brundtland, was convened by the United Nations in 1983. The commission was created to address growing concern "about the accelerating deterioration of the human environment and natural resources and the consequences of that deterioration for economic and social development." In establishing the commission, the UN General Assembly recognized that environmental problems were global in nature and determined that it was in the common interest of all nations to establish policies for sustainable development.

Women have three distinct types of involvement: direct involvement in terrorist acts; enabling of others to commit such acts; and facilitating the disengagement of others from violent or extremist groups.
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Getting the Policies
and Finance Right
“Whereas technology is often touted
as the starting point for green growth,
social dimensions may prove
to be even more crucial”
– Nicholas Perrin
6. Going Green with Equity
Social inclusion and the reduction of the inequalities
should be at the centre of the strategy
Will require social sustainability principles, such as:
• preferential access for the poor and vulnerable to
new jobs, green microfinance and infrastructure
• adaptable social protection mechanisms which
mitigate the impact of environmental and disaster risk and
provide income support for green consumption by the poor
• a rights-based approach which tackles fundamental
structural inequalities

and Society: Implications for a Global Green Economy. UNRISD
7. Creating a Virtuous Circle
Putting an end to the spiral of
environmental degradation and poverty:
through
innovation in
employment and
education
through synergies
between public
policy, the private
sector, the non-
profit sector
(NGOs) and civil
society
through local and
sustainable
solutions bringing
co-benefits: for
example, the
nexus between
food and
nutrition, water
security and
energy
8. 2. Employment and Education
Role of Public Policy, Society,
Private Sector and NGOs
Those who have access to
resources, education and
opportunities are empowered and
less vulnerable to climate change,
because of their capacity to cope
and to identify or create other
opportunities for themselves
9. Equal access and opportunities
Creating jobs is not enough. One must ensure that these
individuals are among the beneficiaries:
More than 600 million people are disabled, many of whom live under the
poverty line
More than 33 million live with HIV/AIDS
Over 300 million are indigenous peoples
More than 2 billion have no access to safe water and sanitation
1.3 billion are without access to electricity
More than a billion are undernourished
Over 30 million are refugees or displaced people.
More than one billion rural poor
Education is key – youth, women, famers, etc.
Risk: Policies that ignore unequal access to finance, land, food,
education and other resources potentially result in further inequality
which can in turn reinforce unsustainable patterns
10. Management of natural assets

are located in rural areas where more than

women at an earlier age than men.

13. 3. Measuring the Success
of Initiatives
Metrics based on:
Human rights
Civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights inherent to all human beings.
• Eg.: the right to food: Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale
Inequality
Inequity constitutes a violation of human rights. Are policies successful in
reducing disparities (eg. rural-urban gap, ethnic cliveages, etc.)?
• Eg.: Gini Coefficient, MDGs
Inclusiveness
Are policies socially-inclusive? (youth, marginalized, indigenous peoples, etc.)
Gender
Are policies gender-blind, gender-aware or gender-transformative? (WFP/ALINe)
• Eg.: The Women in Agriculture Empowerment Index (WAEI)
Sustainability and Environmental justice
Long–term plans and adaptation and Mitigation of Climate Change. Protects the
most vulnerable.
• Eg.: SDGs
14. Example: The Women’s
Empowerment in Agriculture Index
Example of a tool for measurement
This Index is an innovation in the measurement of women’s empowerment,
which was developed from July 2011 to February 2012 based on pilot
surveys conducted between September to November 2011 in Feed the
Future’s zones of influence in three countries with markedly different
sociocultural contexts: Bangladesh, Guatemala, and Uganda

16. 5. Innovative Programs and Policies
In the emerging South:
India’s National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme
Brazil’s biofuel industry and approach to food security
South Africa’s Expanded Public Works Programme
Ethiopia’s Productive Safety Net Programme
Global:
Poverty and Environment Initiative – UNEP, UNDP and
REDD
UNDP’s Women Green Business Initiative
Ethical Markets Network
17. Example: UNDP’s Women
Green Business Alternative
• Green economy initiatives are not
automatically inclusive.
• This initiative equips women to engage in
new economic activities that address
climate change threats while building
self-sufficient and resilient communities
by implementing three strategic
elements:
1)Creating a policy environment that
enhances equal opportunities for women
2)Building capacity for women
entrepreneurs
3)Increasing women’s access to climate

18. The Solidarity Economy (Brazil)
“Social economy’’ or growth driven by social accountability and
responsibility combined with a focus on environmental sustainability.
In Brazil, the "Solidarity Economy" started in the 1980s with the organization of rural
workers, it expanded in the 90s and early 2000s into a social movement.
It is now linked into the national policy framework through a National Secretariat and a
council and more recently a policy signed by Lula integrating the solidarity economy into
Brazil’s growth strategy. In 2005 it involved over a million persons and 41% of
municipalities in Brazil. While linked to the concept of productive inclusion, it goes further.
In November 2010, President Lula signed a decree making Brazil the first Equitable and
Solidarity trade system in the world that is recognized and supported by the state[1].
Solidarity Economy is a vision in which a series of
parameters are to be followed during the execution of
public policies aimed at creating employment and
revenues through actions of promotion of the solidarity
economy and of fair trade.
