Regional stability is best achieved through cooperation based on mutual respect and European values like equality, non-intervention, and addressing common challenges.

Pistab k 12
This document discusses the challenges and responses in implementing the K to 12 program in the Philippines. It provides background on the K to 12 model and phases of implementation. Some key challenges include the late transition, lack of curriculum and resources, and increased drop-outs. The document proposes implementing K to 12 independently in CEAP schools through a Career Academy model. Career Academies would offer career-focused tracks for students in Grades 11-12, allowing them to either enter the workforce or continue to college. This approach could help address issues like relevance and preparation for work or higher education. Overall, the K to 12 and Career Academy models aim to better educate students and support the Philippine economy.
Economic research on diversity
This document summarizes a presentation about economic research on diversity through international migration. It discusses several topics covered in the research, including measuring diversity through indexes, the impact of migration on wages and employment, productivity and innovation, and trade. It notes that research finds diversity has a small but positive impact on wages and employment, and that among firms that hire skilled immigrants, greater diversity of foreign workers enhances product innovation. Meta-analyses show an increase in the number of immigrants increases trade volumes by around 1-2%. The presentation concludes by discussing the relevance of this research for policies in New Zealand.
Settlement and integration outcomes
This document summarizes research on immigrant integration and ethnic economies in Auckland, New Zealand. It discusses:
1) Research examining the labor market participation, business activities, and use of ethnic networks by immigrant families. This included studying Chinese, Indian, Korean, and South African immigrants.
2) Findings that ethnic entrepreneurs rely heavily on co-ethnic social networks for workers, suppliers, customers and financing. Many also maintain strong transnational ties.
3) The role of ethnic precincts in Auckland, particularly the Meadowlands Chinese precinct, in providing culturally relevant goods and services for both ethnic and non-ethnic consumers.
4) Open questions around the size of the Chinese ethnic economy,
Living in New Zealand in your culture, poverty and cultural privilege
This document discusses a forum hosted by Poverty Action Waikato on living in New Zealand from different cultural perspectives. Participants were asked to share their experiences of how easy or difficult it has been to live in New Zealand in their culture. The forum aimed to advocate for social change by highlighting issues of poverty, cultural privilege, and the impact of history and market economies on different cultural groups. Participants were assured that any stories shared could be used anonymously in advocacy work. The document frames culture as encompassing how people socialize, work, practice religion and view the world. It presents the conversation as ongoing and complex with contact details provided for further discussion.
Taku Manawa workshop
The Taku Manawa program is a human rights community development initiative run by the New Zealand Human Rights Commission in four regions of New Zealand. The program aims to empower communities to identify and advocate for their own human rights issues. It does this through grassroots partnerships and participation using six human rights principles. Evaluations show the program strengthens relationships within communities and provides a framework for local decision-making.
Pacific Languages Framework
This document outlines a Pacific Languages Framework presented at a consultation meeting in August 2011. It discusses the declining use and transmission of Pacific languages in New Zealand, with some like Niuean and Tokelauan facing serious loss. The framework aims to revitalize, promote and maintain Pacific languages by coordinating government support for language programs and services. It proposes outcomes and intervention areas focused on individuals, families/communities and society. Next steps include revising the framework based on feedback and developing community action plans and an inter-agency implementation plan.
Naive Bayes
Slides for a talk at Wittenberg to undergraduates introducing the concept of a Naive Bayes Classifier.
Unix command-line tools
The document discusses several common Unix command line utilities for text processing and file searching:
- find - Searches for files and directories based on various criteria like name, type, size, and modification time. Results can be piped to xargs to perform actions.
- grep - Searches files for text patterns. Has options for case-insensitive, recursive, and whole word searches.
- sed - Stream editor for modifying text, especially useful for find-and-replace. Can capture groups and perform transformations.
