Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.
What is the point of small housing associations.pptxPaul Smith
Given the small scale of housing associations and their relative high cost per home what is the point of them and how do we justify their continued existance
Presentation by Jared Jageler, David Adler, Noelia Duchovny, and Evan Herrnstadt, analysts in CBO’s Microeconomic Studies and Health Analysis Divisions, at the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists Summer Conference.
2. Introduction
• Environmental education and awareness is increasingly being promoted as
a tool in managing our environment.
• In the 20th century serious environmental concerns like pollution, climate
change, biodiversity, etc have triggered great concern about the
relationship between humanity and the environment
• In 1978 UNESCO Tbilisi Declaration, mentioned the need for
environmental education. This Declaration Convention defined
environmental education as “ a process of developing a world
population that is aware of and concerned about the total
environment and its associated problems, and which has the
knowledge, skills, attitudes, motivation and commitment to work
individually and collectively towards solution of current problems and
the prevention of new ones”.
3. Introduction (Continues)
• Education - any act or experience that has a formative effect on the
mind, character or physical ability of an individual. In its technical
sense education is the process by which society deliberately
transmits its accumulated knowledge, skills and values from one
generation to another.
– Formal education ( degree purpose)
– Informal education ( enhancement of skills and knowledge for
non degree purposes)
• Outreach - the provision of information or services to groups in
society who might otherwise be neglected, i.e.an outreach program
for people who cannot read
• Awareness: First stage in the process of learning about a new
product, service
4. Introduction (Continues)
• The need to continuously heighten awareness and educate the general
public on environmental issues and also promote actions that seek to
minimise damage on the environment is vital.
• Education, which includes formal education & informal programmes,
should be recognised as a process by which human beings and
societies can reach their fullest potential.
• Educations and awareness is critical for achieving environmental and
ethical awareness, values and attitudes, skills and behaviour consistent
with sustainable development and effective empowerment of the general
public in decision making.
5. Understanding the Context
• Government work is a public activity.
• Government has a constitutional obligation to inform the public.
• Position DEA as offering Though Leadership
• Development communications demands active citizen
involvement in government programs – Development is about
people
• Active engagement with citizenship ensures empowerment.
• An informed citizenry is a powerful citizenry
6. Media Profile
• SA has over 561 magazines read by just over 12 million people
• Over 15 million South Africans read newspapers, with over 29
million of them listening to the radio
• SABC is the biggest media house in the country with 15 PBS radio
stations and 3 PCBS.
• We have over 123 community radio stations.

9. What is being Done
• People and Parks: WSSD in 2002 and the World Parks Congress
in 2003 which were hosted by SA resolved that local people should
be at the forefront of biodiversity conservation as they depend on
natural resources for their livelihoods.
• South Africa’s success in achieving sustainable protection of
biodiversity hotspots, species and ecosystems will largely depend
on the extent to which we involve local people whose livelihoods
depend on these resources.
10. What is being Done
• Indalo Yethu
– Climate Change Awareness: Demystify Climate Change,
refinement of carbon calculator adapted for community use,
climate change kits for schools
– Demonstrate a link between Climate Change & development
– Green Ambassadors 2010: Build a pool eco-activists among the
youth
– Eco-Towns: Create eco conscious communities: assist
municipalities capacity. Reduce landfill volumes
11. Education and Awareness – What we need
to do
• To introduce & enhance formal and informal Environmental Education
and training programmes at schools & institutions of higher learning
• To encourage an integrated approach to environment education that
embraces multidisciplinary approach (environment and development
issues)
• To promote non-formal education and awareness activities at local
communities’ level to foster partnerships. Municipalities and NGOs
• To strengthen the role of the media as agents for the dissemination of
messages
• To empower communities to take ownership
12. How do we move Forward?
• Sector Education, Training and Development’s work must be located in
the formal curriculum development, environment sector specific
interventions in education and capacity building (learner ships and
teacher development) , to name a few. Technical oversight on the
environmental education curriculum
• Public Education and Awareness is about behavioral change and
creating a society that is empowered with information –Information Age.
• Coordination and alignment with provinces and local government on
priority campaigns
– Waste management- anti litter
– Basa nje ngo magogo- clean fires
– Climate change
– Biodiversity loss/Greening
