A Critique of \'10 Year Plans to end Homelessness\'Steve Darmody
- The document discusses 10-year plans that over 340 US cities and communities have implemented to end homelessness, which are supported by the US Interagency Council on Homelessness.
- Key components of successful 10-year plans include political leadership, evidence-based initiatives like affordable housing and support services, and a focus on the most vulnerable populations.
- Results from various cities show reductions in street and chronic homelessness ranging from 6.5-70% after implementation of a 10-year plan and increased housing and services.
- While not all aspects have been successful, the overall concept and goal of ending homelessness through coordinated long-term planning is effective and could be adapted for use in Australia.

The Moving to Opportunity (MTO) experiment was a housing mobility program that ran from 1994 to 1998 in five major US cities. It randomly assigned over 4,600 low-income families living in public housing or high-poverty neighborhoods to one of three groups: an experimental group that received housing vouchers to move to lower-poverty areas, a control group that received no special assistance, and a Section 8 group that received standard housing vouchers. The document discusses findings from initial and long-term evaluations of the program's impacts on outcomes related to poverty, crime exposure, employment, income, education, health, and behavior. It also outlines plans for the final evaluation using new survey and administrative data to better understand the mechanisms

Career readiness during COVID: How schools can help students enter the labour...EduSkills OECD
Young people today have never left education more ambitious and highly qualified, but even before the pandemic many struggled to find good work. The COVID-19 crisis has made it more urgent than ever for schools to help students prosper as they move through education and into the labour market.
Education systems can help all students compete more effectively in the labour market. Schools can do more to help young people become more attractive to employers, but the message is not getting through and new waves of austerity and employer retraction will create new barriers to effective action. International datasets can help to identify indicators among teenagers that are linked with employment outcomes. This presentation accompanies a webinar that introduces significant new OECD work designed to enable and encourage data-driven career guidance.

This document discusses measuring researcher mobility by comparing different data sources and methods. It assesses German and international data on researcher mobility and presents a case study using natural language processing to reconstruct researcher careers from online data. It also analyzes micro-data from population surveys in Germany and the US to identify and compare mobile researchers between the two countries. The analysis finds that non-migrant researchers make up a larger share of the workforce than migrant researchers in both countries, and that migrants are more highly represented in scientific occupations in the US compared to Germany.

Randomised control trials: lessons for Civic Tech - Andrew Westbury (Center f...mysociety
The document summarizes insights from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that can inform civic technology. It discusses how the Center for Effective Global Action (CEGA) conducts RCTs to test institutional reforms and provides three examples of information-based RCTs. One study in Brazil found that providing municipal audits led citizens to hold governments more accountable. A study in the Philippines found that providing voter information increased knowledge but also increased vote buying. A study in Sierra Leone found that political debates increased campaigning efforts. The document suggests civic technology could help enable more such studies and notes areas of potential partnership between researchers and practitioners.
Randomized Controlled Trials: Insights for Civic Tech Andrew Westbury
Randomized controlled trials – or RCTs – have dramatically changed the development landscape, casting doubt on the effectiveness of accepted strategies – like microfinance – and identifying the value of previously-unorthodox activities, like unconditional cash transfers.
However, what have these powerful tools taught us about state capacity, government accountability, and responsiveness? Moreover, what does the RCT literature tell us about the use of technology to improve public services and galvanize citizen groups?
Unfortunately, state capacity and government accountability are some of the least-researched areas of international development. The International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) reports that less than 3% of registered impact evaluations focus on governance-related issues.
Moreover, a review of 175 recent RCTs identified only approximately 30 that included a specific tech-focus and few of these evaluated used tech from the “bottom-up” to catalyse community-action, peer-to-peer collaboration, and citizen-led efforts to address civic issues.
The Center for Effective Global Action (CEGA) at UC-Berkeley has recently launched a multi-year effort to support randomised evaluations of governance interventions around the world. As a part of this process, CEGA this year published a white paper, surveying over 200 recent impact evaluations on governance issues to identify “what works” and highlight open research questions.

An AHAA Cultural Orientation-Generational Study
Sponsored by AARP and data partners Scarborough & GfK MRI
Discover NEW Hispanic opportunities by exploring specific category and cultural benefits among Hispanic Millennials, Gen X and Boomers
As the lines between the ‘Mainstream’ and the Hispanic market continue to blur, it is more important than ever for marketers to not only understand what makes Hispanics different / similar to non-Hispanics, but to examine the cultural differences between Hispanics, as well.
With underwriting from AARP, AHAA: The Voice of Hispanic Marketing recently commissioned the first study to examine the buying habits and Cultural Orientation of Hispanics and non-Hispanics across three generational groups—Millennials (18-29), Generation X (30-44), and Boomers (45-65).
The results were surprising on many levels, validating that the once popular ‘one size fits all’ Hispanic marketing approach will need to change to fully address the diversity of the Hispanic consumer, moving forward.
What You'll Learn:
• Identify the “best” Hispanic customer for key product categories
• Understand the cultural orientation differences across three Hispanic generational segments
• Increase marketing effectiveness by understanding the cultural diversity within U.S. Hispanics

AHAA Generational Cultural Orientation Webinar_short_deck_06-27-13_finalSantiago Solutions Group
Hispanic Millennials, Gen Xers, and Boomers show differences in cultural orientation and media behaviors. Cultural orientation varied across generations and was most influenced by acculturation and nativity. Hispanic Boomers were the heaviest TV viewers while Millennials and Gen Xers were heavier radio listeners. Younger generations were heaviest internet users. Across categories, Boomers showed greater opportunities versus other Hispanic generations for items like travel, life insurance, and new cars. Gen Xers showed greater opportunities for satellite TV and children's clothing. Cultural orientation among top buyers in categories ranged from highly Hispanic to bicultural.
Barry Fong, Principal Social Policy Analyst at the Greater London Authority (GLA) will take us through the Survey of Londoners 2021-22. Conducted at the end of 2021, so just before the full effects of the cost-of-living crisis began to set in, it was commissioned to provide vital evidence on key social outcomes for Londoners, following the onset of COVID-19 and associated restrictions.
A similar survey was conducted in 2018-19, so this survey would show how things had changed in the capital since then.
Barry will go through some of the key findings from the survey before handing over to Michael Cheetham and Ellen Bloomer from the North East London Integrated Care Board, who collaborated with local authority partners to fund a sample boost for the survey within North East London. They will explain how they used the data, including the analyses, the results and how this impacted strategy and practice.
This document summarizes a study that surveyed 395 students at York College about their views on immigration, race, and education. The study aimed to examine how demographic factors influence opinions on immigrants and immigration. A survey was administered that asked questions about perceptions of immigrants and their contributions. The results found that immigrant students tended to be more supportive of immigration than opposed, but there was no significant relationship found between variables. Limitations included a small sample size and concise survey questions.

Identity Theft
(Students name)

(Course title)
(Date of submission)
Although there have been high rates of cases of the identity theft very little amount of information is known about the people who indulge in this type of crime. This paper has been researched to provide some information on the people who engage in this type of crime. To be able to accomplish this, various people have been evaluated and evaluated on their views regarding identity theft. The individuals who were interviewed have received sentencing and are serving their time in prison. The outcome has indicated that identity theft includes different people which include the low-level and the high-level people. The motivating factor which was singled out from the assessment is that the people engaging in identity theft were driven by the quick need of cash. They were able to use a different kind of techniques to be able to have access to the information which they were able to convert it to cash. For example, they were able to buy information, steal the information, or even being able to access it from those individual people who own the specific information (Andringa et al., 2018).
Through the development of different skills in computer science and computer technology; for example the computer system skills, the fraudsters on identity theft were able to accomplish their mission with success. Through the findings of this paper, it can be recommended that having well tested situational crime prevention methods can be very effective through the process of trying to reduce the identity theft through the process of trying to increase the employed efforts. However, also through the findings in this paper, this method may become ineffective at some point, due to the fact that new way can be discovered by the crime offenders. Having an assessment from the crime offenders and basing that information, this sample has been developed which is purposed at trying to do away with the excuses which may result to the few cases of having identity theft.
In the United States of America, identity theft has been able to grab the attention of the country as it has sort to become a very common economic an computer crime. Through the statistical analysis which have previously been conducted, there are many cases of people who have been complaining and have gone ahead to report the crimes. Although so many cases have been filed regarding the identity theft in a computer with the police, not much has been done for the purposes of trying to identify the how this fraud can be controlled with more effective computer methods. For this reason, I have come up with a research that is meant for the examination of those people who have engaged in identity theft to try and understand their own perspective why they do that. The main goal and purpose if provide information on how the process identity theft is conducted and how those people th.

3.4 Effectively Collecting, Coordinating, and Using Youth Data
Speaker: Shahera Hyatt
Document: Toolkit for surveying youth
Data is essential to create effective evidence-based strategies to prevent and end homelessness. This workshop will examine methodologies of point-in-time counts and other surveys, discuss coordinating HMIS with mainstream data systems and explore ways to use these data to inform policy decisions and interventions.
1. Pew Research Center conducted a study administering the same survey to 9 online nonprobability samples from 8 vendors and their own probability-based online panel to assess accuracy.
2. There was substantial variation in accuracy across the online vendors, with the top performing sample averaging an estimated bias of 5.8 percentage points, nearly 1.5 points lower than the second best.
3. Estimates from some vendors exhibited widespread errors, particularly for blacks and Hispanics, with average estimated biases of over 10 points for both groups across most samples.

This study is an empirical test of Anderson's (2006) theory of "imagined communities" among the BRICS nations and the U.S. Using data collected through the fifth wave of the World Values Survey from Brazil, China, India, India, South Africa, and US, the study confirmed the argument of Anderson who believes that mass media have been the major channel for citizens of nation-states to construct their national identities. Religion’s impacts on the constriction of national identity, national proudness, and global identity is complex. Interestingly, the data revealed that national identity does not lessen global identity, which is positively associated with the postmaterialist value that is prevalent among the younger generations.
Bridge Training Programs (BTP) in Ontario aim to support labour market integration of immigrants. Over 41,000 immigrants have participated in BTPs since 2003, costing an average of $4,300 per participant. BTPs focus on getting licenses, jobs, and changing systems to address underemployment of immigrants with foreign qualifications. They include elements like language training, credential assessment, and job placement. Evaluation finds BTPs have grown immigrant integration but are limited in duration, occupations and geography covered.

BTPs focus on getting licenses, jobs, and changing systems to address underemployment of immigrants with foreign qualifications. They include elements like language training, credential assessment, and job placement. Evaluation finds BTPs have grown immigrant integration but are limited in duration, occupations and geography covered.

This document discusses the sociological concepts of self and other, and how group boundaries are perceived and constructed. It outlines an activity where participants will play an "imitation game" to test their ability to determine if someone belongs to a social group or is pretending. It also includes a minds-on discussion about how categorization can lead to stereotyping and reductionism, but also provides cognitive benefits. The goals are to think critically about strategies for determining social group membership and to promote mutual understanding between groups.

The document summarizes a pilot study on the "Youth Meetings" program in Estonia, which aims to promote cultural awareness, openness, and tolerance among youth through local exchanges. The study assessed the program's impact on over 700 Estonian and Russian-speaking youth participants before and after participation. It found that participation significantly improved youth's social skills and ability to interact with those of different ethnicities. For Estonian youth specifically, it increased awareness of other regions, social issues, and improved foreign language skills. For Russian youth, it boosted skills in interacting in Estonian and contacts with other ethnicities, though they were still more likely to see their future outside Estonia. Both groups reported feeling more comfortable with ethnic

Lithuania's population is predominantly Lithuanian, with Polish and Russian minorities. The main immigrant populations come from Ukraine, Belarus, Russia and Syria. Lithuania experiences both emigration and immigration of its citizens. Children under 16, including foreigners, must attend compulsory education to learn the Lithuanian language. Additional funding supports language learning for migrant children. Adults have opportunities to take paid or free Lithuanian language courses. While promoting multilingualism, Lithuania aims to integrate immigrants through its education system and Lithuanian language programs.

The project will develop immigration policy recommendations, modeling tools, and an intervention model for multicultural schools. It will also study how to best integrate Russian speakers and new immigrants into Estonian society while considering the needs of employers, immigrants, the education system, and communities. The document discusses conceptualizing Estonian society as politically and culturally diverse, with Estonian as the dominant culture among multiple cultural communities. The goals of integration policy are outlined as promoting Estonian language and culture while respecting minority cultures, and reducing inequality through education.

Criteria for a useful measure:
Construct validity
Clear directionality
No presumption that the cultural repertoires of the dominant
group(s) in the host society are a model for integration more
Can be successfully employed across societies and over time
Can be administered through different media (phone; internet;
face-to-face survey)
Can be answered by all subjects (i.e. no missing data)
Face validity

Selecting more than 200 questions with the potential to
differentiate between high and low integration
Trying to focus on questions that are also relevant in other
research fields (i.e. political efficacy, social capital)
Searching for a limited number of dimensions where there are
expectations of differential rates of integration progress.

Is this relevant for Estonia?
No significant immigration since the restoration of statehood
in 1991.
But many of the Russian-speaking population have immigrant
roots coming in the Soviet period.
Question A: How well are they integrating, and where in society
are the successes and where the failures?
Question B: Are the predictions in Laitin (1998) that Estonia and
Latvia would be integration successes (compared to the other
former Soviet Union Republics) upheld?
