This document discusses transnational social protection in a world where more people live outside their country of citizenship. It defines transnational social protection as policies, programs, and institutions that provide social protections like healthcare, education, unemployment benefits, etc. in a transnational way. Individuals piece together resources from states, markets, NGOs, and social networks across borders. While some gain new protections, inequality is redistributed rather than eliminated as rights, residence and citizenship are decoupled from each other and the nation state. New policies are needed that address this mobile world where people live outside their home countries.

Community assessment: application to community/public health nursing practice
Assessment, the first step of the nursing process, forms the foundation for determining the client's health, regardless of whether the client is an individual, a family, or a community.
Nurses gather information by using their senses, as well as their cognition, past experiences, and specific tools.
These data are analyzed to make diagnoses about the community's health status and allow the nurse to answer the question, “How healthy is this community, or what are its strengths, problems, and concerns?”
Components of Healthy Communities
Low crime rates
Good schools
Strong family life
Robust economy, good jobs
High environmental quality (clean air, water)
Accessible and quality health services
Adequate housing
Civic involvement
Nice weather
Good transportation (roads, public transportation)
Wide variety of leisure activities
Exposure to the arts
Reasonable taxes
Community defined
Community is defined as an open social system that is characterized by people in a place who have common goals over time.
Aggregate is any number of individuals with at least one common characteristic (Williams, 1977). The terms population group and aggregate are synonyms for population (Williams, 1977)
Population is a collection of individuals who share one or more personal or environmental characteristics, the most common of which is geographical location (Schultz, 1987).
Critical Components of a Community
People, Population is the most obvious of the necessary community components.
Place, traditionally, communities were described in relation to geographical area.
Social interaction or common characteristics, interests, or goals.
Geopolitical
The geopolitical community is a spatial designation—a geographical or geopolitical area or place.
Geopolitical communities are formed by either natural or human-made boundaries. A river, a mountain range, or a valley may create a natural boundary
Human-made boundaries may be structural, political, or legal.
Political boundaries may be exemplified by congressional districts or school districts.
Phenomenological
Another way of thinking about community is in terms of the members' feeling of belonging or sense of membership, rather than geographical or political boundaries
People in a phenomenological community have a group perspective that differentiates them from other groups.
A group consists of two or more people engaged in an interdependent relationship that includes repeated face-to-face communication.
A group's identity may be based on culture, beliefs, values, history, common interests, characteristics, or goals.
Social Interaction or Common Interests, Goals, and Characteristics
Communities, similar to families, have their own patterned interaction among individuals, families, groups, and organizations; this interaction varies from community to commun ...

Nancy Advocates to Professionalize
Social Work in Her State
Nancy is a SSW-level social worker residing in a state that recognizes and provides licensure only
for MSW-level clinical social workers who have passed a national examination and completed at
least 2 years of supervised clinical experience. The license is what allows clinical social workers
to enter private practice with individuals and families, obtain reimbursement through insurance
companies and other third parties, and tap into public funding sources. In contrast, BSW and
nonclinical MSW social workers have been limited to obtaining state certifications in social work.
These certifications lack credibility with potential clients and funding sources.
In Nancy's state, human service organizations rarely require proof of certificat ion or of a
degree in social work for employment as a social worker in nonclinical settings. So by law,
just about anyone with at least a bachelor's degree can choose to be called a social worker.
People who have majored in psychology, sociology, criminal justice, history, and English routinely
obtain employment in human service and mental health agencies in her state. They often refer
to themselves as social workers, care managers, caseworkers, and intervention specialists. As
a result, the general public believes that the term social worker can be applied to nearly anyone
doing good for others.
Nancy worked hard for her BSW degree and wonders how nonprofessionals can effectively
do the work without the training she has received. It seems to her that the potential for doing
harm is high.
The important point here is that Nancy is thinking and acting as an advocate. To ensure that
clients receive quality services from competent social workers, Nancy works with her National
Association of Social Workers state chapter and local social work educators to promote
state legislation that will establish licensure and title protection for all social workers. As their
recommended changes in state laws are considered, social workers and some client groups
have also been talking with administrators of social work agencies about how important it is to
require that every "social worker" in a human service position have a social work degree and be
appropriately educated.

Concept of community "What is community" Concept about itProfessor5G
The word "community" is derived from Latin and has been used in the English language since the 14th century. The word community is derived from the Latin communitas (meaning the same), which is in turn derived from communis, which means "common, public, shared by all or many" (encyclopedia).
A community is a small or large social unit (a group of living things) who have something in common, such as norms, religion, values, or identity. Communities often share a sense of place that is situated in a given geographical area (e.g. a country, village, town, or neighborhood) or in virtual space through communication platforms.It is a social group sharing an environment, normally with shared interests. In human communities, intent, belief, resources, preferences, needs, risks and a number of other conditions may be present and common, affecting the identity of the participants and their degree of cohesiveness. Human beings, like many other species, are essentially social beings, and naturally form communities which often develop into more structured societies.

Brasileiros em Portugal: de volta às raízes lusitanas traz informações, até então não publicadas, sobre esse importante fenômeno migratório, além da análise de dados produzidos por órgãos oficiais dos dois países e por estudos anteriores. A emigração brasileira para Portugal tem suas raízes na expansão ultramarina, no longínquo século XV. A chegada da Coroa Portuguesa à Terra de Santa Cruz impulsionou esta importante conexão que ao longo das décadas se estruturou e, continuamente, se “re”estrutura. A obra apresenta uma análise criteriosa da relação interdependente entre Brasil e Portugal, com suas históricas nuances permeadas pela migração de seus povos. Passando pela migração bilateral durante o Brasil Colônia, Império e no período pós-independência, o livro discorre sobre os diferentes aspectos desses fluxos, que é um dos mais relevantes da emigração brasileira.
O presente Perfil Migratório do Brasil é um dos quatro primeiros perfis sulamericanos produzidos pela Divisão de Pesquisas da OIM, em coordenação com os escritórios da OIM na região.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

Transnational Social Protection
1. TRANSNATIONAL
SOCIAL PROTECTION:
Changing Social Welfare
in a World on the Move
Peggy Levitt (Wellesley College
and The Global (De)Centre, in
collaboration with Erica Dobbs, Ken
Sun, and Ruxandra Paul
2. Transnational Social Protection
How do individuals and families protect and provide for
themselves outside the traditional framework of the nation-state?
How is the contract between state and citizen changing? Who are
the new winners and losers when rights, residence, and
citizenship are decoupled?
Individuals and families piece together resource environments
from the state, the market, NGOs, and their social networks in
their sending and receiving countries
What they get access to depends upon four emerging logics
(citizenship, personhood/humanity, the market, and community)
3. Transnational Social Protection
The New Context of Social Protection
More and more people live outside their countries of citizenship
for extended periods to work, study, and retire
The welfare state is in decline. Instead, we see re-
familiarization, deinstitutionalization, privatization, and
marketization.
Disaggregation of Citizenship and Social Rights
De-territorialization of Social Protection
Decentering the State
4. Transnational Social Protection
The Changing Context of Social Protection (continued)
Social protection accessed on multiple scales (i.e. sub-
nationally, nationally, regionally, and transnationally). Nation-
states not disappearing but downsizing and supersizing.
TSP is not a panacea. It creates new inequalities in different
forms. The nation-state is not disappearing but re-purposing
itself, shedding old functions and assuming new ones.
Inequality is redistributed not remediated.
5. Transnational Social Protection
The Contrasting Logics of Rights and Their Consequences for
Social Protection
Social Protections as Constitutional Rights
Social Protections as Human Rights
Social Protections as Commodities
Social Protections as Community
6. Defining TSP and Resource
Environments as a Response
A focus on TSP recognizes that individuals may be embedded
in transnational social fields and that multiple state and non-
state actors might protect and provide for them.
According to OECD, “social protections” include: old age,
disability, health, maternal and child benefits, labor market
training, unemployment, and housing assistance. To this we
add education (i.e.knowledge and skill production, credentials),
labor rights, and community development.
Four sources of support: state, market, third sector actors, or
individuals’ personal networks. Formal and informal.
7. Defining TSP (continued)
TSP is the policies, programs, people, organizations, and
institutions that provide for and protect individuals in these
areas in a transnational manner.
Includes grounded actors that provide for and protect people
who move transnationally, transnational actors that provide for
and protect grounded individuals, and transnational actors that
provide for and protect transnational individuals
Resource Environments – the intersection between various
protections available formally and informally from the state,
market, NGO sector, and social networks.
11. Implications
This is not a world of welfare without borders
We need new policies and institutions that respond to this world
on the move where people live outside their countries of
citizenship for extended periods
Inequality is reshuffled not eliminated. Enhanced protections for
some mean greater vulnerability for others. Tough questions
about distributive justice
States must still be held accountable for the welfare of their
citizens (both resident and non-resident). Every human being,
no matter where they live, should be entitled to basic rights and
protections.
Editor's Notes
Social welfare entitlements are shrinking
Often replaced by unregulated, unaffordable market for basic services
More and more people temporary, part-time, insecure, low paying jobs
Fewer state benefits and pay too little to access benefits through the market
Mobility encouraged for educated, high skilled and increasingly discouraged for low-skilled.
