Making blended finance work for water and sanitation green talks webinarOECD Environment
Water-related investments are key for sustainable development and inclusive growth. Blended finance can play a critical role in mobilising commercial finance and strengthening the financing systems on which water-related investments rely on. Water flows as a prerequisite through every one of the sustainable development goals (SDGs), especially those on food security, healthy lives, energy, sustainable cities and marine and terrestrial ecosystems.
We need a water low-carbon resilient infrastructure. Delivering these environmental ambitions will require historic scaling of financing on water related investments. These requires using existing sources of finance more strategically.
On 9 Sept 2019, Kathleen Dominique of the Environment Directorate OECD and Wiebke Bartz-Zuccala of the Development Co-operation Directorate OECD, discussed ongoing OECD work on blended finance and what has worked in the past as well as the potential to scale up blended finance approaches to apply to a broader range of investment types and contexts.

A recent IIED study on climate finance shows a big gap between total climate funds available and the proportion of that being implemented at local scale. In addition, global spending on conventional agriculture and forestry is manifold the spending on responsible land use practices. The CGIAR program on Forest Trees and Agroforestry studies success factors for inclusive and responsible businesses, which are at the core of both climate finance and responsible investments. It also looks at financial mechanisms that can adequately address the needs of such businesses.
This session will cover principles of blended finance, which will enable participants to understand a variety of financing options for their project concepts. This session will also focus on how blended finance projects are typically structured. Participants will be able to identify different financing instruments that could potentially be mobilized to fund a project to ensure efficiency and sustainability.
o OBJECTIVE 1: Participants will understand the type and characteristics of different funding instruments and their benefit-cost requirements
o OBJECTIVE 2: Participants will demonstrate how each instrument can be utilized to address specific risks of a particular project.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

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.

This keynote was presented during the the 7th edition of the UAE Hackathon 2024. It highlights the role of AI and Generative AI in addressing government transformation to achieve zero government bureaucracy
3. • Ongoing operational costs for the
NAP process
• Costs for integrating adaptation
into plans and budgets
• Investing in crosscutting measures
that enable adaptation
• Implementation of adaptation
actions by government ministries,
sub-national authorities or other
actors
Uses for domestic public
finance
4. How domestic finance is allocated depends on
the planning and budgeting cycle
Generally, there are two key entry points:
• Medium-term expenditure framework
• Annual budgeting process
Entry points
5. • Identify entry points early on
• Involve actors responsible for budgeting
in the NAP process
• Ensure costing is part of the process
• Strengthen capacity on integration of
climate change and adaptation
financing needs into planning and
budgeting
• Build on existing systems, advocate for
improvements where necessary
Key Issues to Consider
6. • Relatively predictable and
consistent source of funding
• Can support development and
implementation phases of the NAP
process
• Builds on existing systems and
institutional arrangements
• Enhances national ownership
• Can leverage other sources of
financing for adaptation
Key benefits of domestic
public finance
7. Revenue raising instruments:
• Taxes, levies and fees
• Bonds
• Debt conversion
Redistribution of revenue
• Subsidies
• Subsidy reform
Potential to use these instruments to
finance prioritized adaptation actions
Fiscal instruments
