European Parliamentarians and the European Disability Forum join with CBM to call for strong European action to implement UN convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities worldwide MEP Gay Mitchell opens ‘Access for All?’ at the European Parliament in Brussels. Exhibition highlights need to renew commitment to MDGs for people with disabilities in the developing world. Brussels, 3 December 2008 The European Parliament recently hosted an important photo exhibition to mark International Day of Persons with Disabilities. The exhibition, developed by CBM and entitled ‘Access for all’, will run throughout this week marking the entry into force of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The 2008 theme of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities is "Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities: Dignity and justice for all of us". The photos exhibited illustrate CBM's work in fostering political empowerment and access to health, education, livelihood support and social inclusion in some of the most disadvantaged communities in low income countries. Much can be achieved when Persons with Disabilities are able to access to development activities; however, such people are a drop in the ocean of the 650 million Persons with Disabilities worldwide. At present only 4 percent of people with disabilities in the developing world access development aid; speakers at the exhibition called for increased commitment and action to equalise opportunities for Persons with Disabilities around the world. Donor countries in particular need to honour their role in ensuring that all development and humanitarian assistance is delivered to people with disabilities on an equal footing with others. Speakers at the opening of 'Access for All' reminded us of the hard work that lies ahead to make sure that the promises made by governments in signing this Convention will be translated into real improvements in the lives of Persons with Disabilities worldwide. '….billions of Euro can be found for bankers at the drop of a hat…' Hosting the exhibition was Gay Mitchell, Irish MEP who is used to campaigning for increased focus on development aid and poverty reduction at the European level. He described his pursuit of a strong development cooperation programme for the EU, and pointed out that in these days when 'billions of Euro can be found for bankers at the drop of a hat', he has had to struggle for one billion Euro to come to the aid of farmers in developing countries whose families lives and livelihoods hang in the balance due to the food crisis. Mitchell went on to say that there was 'a need to keep renewing our commitment to poverty reduction and the MDGs', and that 'nowhere is the need felt more strongly than by people with disabilities in the developing world'. Speakers at the opening of the exhibition addressed the question: What can the European Union do about the exclusion of persons with disabilities from development cooperation? John Bowis MEP, campaigner for the inclusion of disability across all areas of EC policy, drew inspiration from the photo exhibition, saying: 'We are not asking for people to feel sorry for people with disabilities; we see pride and dignity in the faces of people in the exhibition here today, and it is this pride and dignity that we need to respond to. Disability is not inability- inability is cased by the barriers we as a society put in place'. Bowis was struck also by the photos which highlighted the way disability impacts families, and in particular its effect on children in developing countries. He reflected on how 'a child's right to play, to be naughty, to mix with other children, to have a career themselves eventually', was all taken away when they either had a disability themselves, or were needed at home to care for a family member because of poverty and inadequate support. 'The real difference worldwide caused by the UN CRPD will be in the developi

Acceptable application of analytics for your academic areas

Michael Fienen

During this workshop, Michael Fienen will walk you through a number of techniques and processes that will enable you to take your implementation of Google Analytics well beyond a plain set-it-and-forget-it configuration. Better analytics allows you to make better informed decisions and save time (plus you look super smart in meetings when you can answer questions on the fly). You’ll learn how to create custom segments and dimensions to better identify people on your site, use goal funnels to determine the effectiveness of inquiries and see how tools like Tag Manager can enable you to easily create broad spectrum tracking across your site on elements of all types.

Got centerpiece? (#hewebar 2013 edition)

Michael Fienen

Higher ed has a problem with its websites. Many of us are past that first big hump of "The Millennial Redesign." We've plopped down money on a shiny new CMS. Our design is hip and groovy. But an issue snuck in when we weren't looking. Centerpieces have become a staple component of the ever important home page. The problem is that they have homogenized us. We're all doing it, and we're all doing it the same, and pretty much everyone does it badly. This presentation will look at a number of sites and their centerpieces, look at common themes, address why our current trend is a problem, and make suggestions as to where we can go and what we can do to stand out and differentiate ourselves.

Creatively Common (#BootCamp12)

Michael Fienen

Creatively Common is a functional variant of my Creative Commons and open licensing talk (re)Mix010gy from dotCMS BootCamp 2012. We touch on many of the core concepts of (re)Mix010gy as the "come to Jesus" component, and then segue into a coding demo showing users how to create their own open license media repository. The code examples are available at http://learndotcms.com/2012/10/commonly-creative-code/

The Web is Human

Michael Fienen

In the second decade of the second millennium, many of us are approaching the web wrong. We have trouble defining goals, addressing needs, and defining scope. We use phrases like “Mobile First,” or “Content First.” We forget where we came from, and lack vision on where we’re going by bogging ourselves down in processes or allowing programmers to do front end UI. Everything about our environment is transitional – everything except one core component: us. People create websites, people consume websites, and there comes a point where strategy needs to yield to technological requirements and open itself to what our users want and need. I’m talking about “People First.”

(re)Mix010gy (long version)

Michael Fienen

The future of marketing lies in communities. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube – wherever your audience is, they are talking about you. As our audiences become more sophisticated and more evolved, it is no longer good enough to market AT them. You have to consider how you engage with them, in turn creating a culture of brand evangelists. But it isn’t easy. When we look at some of the most successful videos on YouTube, one of the most common themes is how they mix content together. As we begin to consider new, fun, engaging ways of interacting with communities, it is important to consider what role remixable media will play in promoting your brand. Some brands have tried and failed. Some have found success. Others still are missing huge opportunities. Regardless, in the world of remixable media in marketing, there is value in giving away something for nothing.

Chaos in Context: Informed Design Through Analytics

Michael Fienen

Analytics: they are a great business tool. They help you measure performance. They help you profile users. They help you gauge popularity. But, analytics are more than just pages of hit counts and bounce rates. They can also be a very important design tool that can ensure you make educated, informed decisions on how your site evolves over time. As sites age, the act of redesigning serves a necessary, but costly role. It can frequently be a much better use of resources to constantly be realigning instead. That is - making a consistent stream of smaller, incremental changes over time. To do this, information in your analytics can help resolve tools that are failing, falling out of use, or not being understood. We'll take a look at how you can extract context from Google Analytics in order to plan changes to your web site's home page and templates.

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.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024

Tobias Schneck

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
