Tackling Road Safety Issues through investment in Non Motorized Transport (in the developing world).
What?
To support developing and transitional countries in shifting away from prioritizing the movement of cars towards prioritizing the movement of people; through systematic investment in non-motorised transport.
Why?
Investing in NMT infrastructure not only protects vulnerable road users from high speed traffic but it also improves accessibility and the environment

Technology and Diplomacy: Mobile Internet in AsiaAbu Saeed Khan
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bangladesh has invited me to speak at "Second International Blue Economy Dialogue" in Dhaka during November 22-23. International scholars have discussed maritime connectivity and acquiring resources from the ocean waters as well as exploring underneath the seabed. I talked about intercontinental telecoms connectivity using the submarine cable networks. And the importance of building a robust terrestrial network across Asia for the sake of robust international connectivity was central to my presentation.
In the framework of its Digital Platform actions, UIC, the worldwide railway organisation, has organised the1st African Rail Digital Summit.
in Cape Town from 25 – 27 February 2019. This event, co-organised with UIC, African Union and NEPAD and co-sponsored by 4Tel and Huawei, has been attended by over 100 participants from over 20 African countries as well as representatives of China, Indonesia, Europe and Australia.

Africa Regional Internet Development Dialogue
Kigali, Rwanda, 8-9 May 2017
By Prof Hamidou Boly, Ecowas Commissioner for Education, Science and Culture
Chair: Steve Kennett, security director, Jisc.
The UK education and research sectors have extensive international partnerships with their peers overseas. New scientific instruments such as the Square Kilometre Array and developments such as Brexit are likely to increase the institutional requirement for enhanced digital services to locations overseas.
This will require increased collaboration amongst the providers of the campus, national, and international networks and other e-infrastructures. In this session we will look at ways in which Jisc and its international peers are working to connect the global education and research communities that they serve.
Running order of talks:
16:15-16:40 - Internet2 future infrastructure planning
Speaker: John Moore, Internet2.
16:40-17:05 - Connecting TVETs on a shoestring: bringing the internet to South African colleges
Speaker: Arno Hart, TENET.
17:05-17:30 - Jisc's international strategy – how we can help you
Speaker: Esther Wilkinson, head of international, Jisc.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
