Taking care of children should be one of the main priorities of disaster risk reduction policies. The main risk for children and for those taking care of them, as well as the activities pursued for elimination of such risks should be included in DRR general strategies addressed to population. The children and young people affected by disasters can and should be actively involved in the disaster risk reduction activities.
“Women are not only victims, they have driving power of changes, exclusive knowledge and skills that have crucial importance for providing solutions and managing risks”.
During the last 10 years 3 400 natural disasters took place in the world – hurricanes, floods earthquakes and other natural calamities. More than 700000 people died, more than 1,4 mln were injured and 23mln lost shelter. In general disaster affected 1,5 bln people and women, children and vulnerable people were most affected.
Unlike other representatives of society, the elder people cannot immediately react to hazards and risks for responding to emergencies, are less mobile and are dependent on the others. The vulnerability of elders and their capacities are often ignored during emergencies, whereas the collection of data about age and sex can make the needs of people in DRR visible.
Children's safety in the heart of DIPECHO preparedness work: Armenia Oxfam in Armenia
Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) lessons, simulation drills, quizzes, school and home safety planning - all these joint efforts make children and their families more protected and prepared for natural disasters.
In July 2014 Oxfam GB and local partner organisations started the third phase of a participatory multi-hazard disaster risk reduction programme in Armenia and Georgia, funded for 15 months by the European Commission, Department of Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection. The ‘Supporting Community Resilience in the South Caucasus’ programme is due to end in September 2015 and an external evaluation is sought to determine the impact of this programme to date and to make recommendations to inform future programming for the Oxfam team and partners, as well as the donor, ECHO. The evaluation itself will focus on a number of key questions in the following areas: overall impact of the programme, impact on gender equality, sustainability as well as effectiveness of coordination with government and non-government actors.

Food Female Heroes in Armenia, Stories of Women Farmers from Armenian Communi...Oxfam in Armenia
According to statistics, 37,5% of Armenia’s population lives in the rural communities, moreover, half of the poverty-stricken people are women from rural areas. Despite the reforms which are being carried out in Armenia, the agriculture sector is still underdeveloped and farmers are very vulnerable. This is conditioned by a number of problems such as land and water resources scarcity, under-developed industrial, market and social infrastructures, etc.
While living in very hard conditions, Armenian women are village keepers. They overcome hardship and difficulties with courage, struggle against natural disasters, cultivate crops, collect harvest, participate in livestock care, bring up children, and have a huge contribution in the community development. But they unfortunately stay in the background whereas, the work they do is genuine heroism.
To promote women who work in agricultural field in Armenia and who have been successful in bringing positive change in sustainable development of their community, since 2011 Oxfam, with the Ministry of Agriculture and local partners, has been organizing Food Female Hero national award This year Oxfam FFH event main theme was food security and the role of women farmers in promoting food security and healthy nutrition.
On March 6, 2015 Oxfam jointly with the Ministry of Agriculture of RA and Agricultural Alliance organized “Food Female Hero- 2015” public event to mark International Women day and celebrate women’s roles and achievements in agricultural production and food security.
More than 40 women farmers involved in food production has been invited to the public food fair to present their produce, celebrate achievements and speech out about problems they are facing. Fair hosted more than 100 visitors, who came to taste and buy ecologically clean, tasty and healthy products from rural regions of the country. Among them are representatives of national ministries, international and local organizations, regional and local authorities, agricultural cooperatives as well as media. Know more about FFH in Armenia. Visit links below, read the newsletter supplement and read personal stories of women farmers who got the Food Female Hero national awards.

This year Female Food Hero award ceremony has enlarged its boarders involving all the regions of Armenia and turning into a nationwide award ceremony.
This year “Female Food Hero” national award is supported by the European Union and the Austrian Development Agency and conducted within the framework of “Improving Regional Food Security in South Caucasus through National Strategies and Smallholder Production” and “Improving Small Holder Farming through Agricultural Cooperatives and Value Chain Development in Tavush marz, Armenia” projects.
Supporting Community Resilience in the South CaucasusOxfam in Armenia
Haiyan Typhoon in Philippines, Spitak earthquake in Armenia, FLASH floods in Pakistan, severe landslides in Georgia, droughts destroying crops in tajikistan – all these disasters caused enormous human and economic losses over the years.
Many of these losses could be avoided thanks to A JOINT mitigation and preparedness work and reducing vulnerability of communities and governments to natural disasters and climate change effects.
Such a huge public demonstration of support was matched by commitments from world leaders to support the campaign and make every effort to ensure the people of Syria do not lose another year to bloodshed and suffering.

Oxfam works in Armenia since 1994.
We work in 120 rural, poor communities of Armenia.
We reach 30 000 people directly and 120 000 indirectly.
We want to make an even greater impact with the money we spend together each year in fighting poverty.
From 2008-2013, Oxfam’s Raising Her Voice (RHV) programme worked to create more effective governance systems by ensuring that women’s voices influence decisions about
services, investments, policies and legal frameworks, from community, through to national and regional levels. To date, over one million marginalised women in 17 countries, including Armenia,are estimated to have benefited from increased activism, leading to increased voice and influence, more effective engagement with targeted decision makers and greater institutional accountability.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
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.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
