The World Youth Report 2013—Youth Migration and Development is the product of the efforts, contributions and support of many people and organizations. From the outset, the process of developing the Report involved a range of participatory
consultations designed to draw on the perspectives of youth on how migration affects them. These consultative sessions
included a five-week e-consultation process, a survey on youth migration and development, a call for visual art
illustrating the daily life experiences of young migrants as well as youth initiatives on migration and development,
and a Google+ Hangout held on 6 March 2013 to identify sustainable solutions for addressing youth migration challenges.

Poverty has been assigned as the number one problem for development of Bangladesh.
Though the country is making significant progress in the socio-economic field, poverty reduction is rather slow. This is mainly because of its high population size of 130 million (population census-2001) in an area of 1,41,000 sq. km. with a population density 840 per sq. km.
Every year, about 2 million population are adding to its population size. Country’s resources are struggling to support such increasing population.

'Does living in a retirement village extend life expectancy? The case of Whiteley Village' investigates the possible benefits of retirement village life with respect to life expectancy i.e. whether Villagers live longer on average than the general population, using Whiteley Village as a case study.
This presentation was delivered at the report launch at Cass Business School on Wednesday, 22nd February 2017.
The Department for Work and Pensions define an individual as in persistent poverty if he or she is in relative income poverty in at least 3 out of 4 consecutive years.
The Department for Work and Pensions produces data on children in material deprivation and low income households by area. This is done on a before housing costs basis.
For a person to be in relative income poverty it means they are living in a household where the total household income from all sources is less than 60 per cent of the average UK household income (as given by the median).

The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?

State of Artificial intelligence Report 2023kuntobimo2016
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a multidisciplinary field of science and engineering whose goal is to create intelligent machines.
We believe that AI will be a force multiplier on technological progress in our increasingly digital, data-driven world. This is because everything around us today, ranging from culture to consumer products, is a product of intelligence.
The State of AI Report is now in its sixth year. Consider this report as a compilation of the most interesting things we’ve seen with a goal of triggering an informed conversation about the state of AI and its implication for the future.
We consider the following key dimensions in our report:
Research: Technology breakthroughs and their capabilities.
Industry: Areas of commercial application for AI and its business impact.
Politics: Regulation of AI, its economic implications and the evolving geopolitics of AI.
Safety: Identifying and mitigating catastrophic risks that highly-capable future AI systems could pose to us.
Predictions: What we believe will happen in the next 12 months and a 2022 performance review to keep us honest.
ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

2. Poverty
• This can be thought of as absolute e.g. the number of
people living on less than £1 or $1 a day (or less than
what is needed for a minimum standard of living)
• Or as relative – e.g. a person can be in relative
poverty if their situation is a certain amount below the
average
3. Relative Income Poverty
• In developed countries the main measure of poverty is
relative income poverty.
• We measure the number of people who are living in a
household where the household income is less than
60% of the median household income in the UK.
• This is an internationally recognised way of measuring
poverty.
5. Imagine a simplified world:
• There are 100 households each with 1 person
• There is £10,000 to be earned each week
£10,000100 people
6. • If everyone earned the same there would be 100
people each earning £100 per week
£10,000 = £100 per person, per week
100
7. So what would the median be?
• The median income is the middle income, in other
words, if we wrote out all the incomes from smallest to
largest, the median would be the one in the middle.
£ £ £ £ £ £ £ £ £
Median incomeLowest
income
Highest
income
8. • So in this all equal world, the median weekly income =
£100 because this is what everyone earns.
• 60% of the median income = 60% of £100 = £60
• The number of people earning less than £60 per week
is zero
• No one is living in relative income poverty because
everyone earns the same amount.

10. Imagine a slightly different spread of income in our simplified world:
• There are still 100 households each with 1 person
• There is still £10,000 to be earned each week
£10,000100 people
In reality, people earn different amounts-
does this mean there will always be people in relative income
poverty?
11. However, this time:
30 people earn £80 per week
40 people earn £100 per week
30 people earn £120 per week
The median income is still £100
(see how the median is calculated at the end of this presentation)
So 60% of the median income is still £60
Nobody is earning below £60 a week – so even though people earn
different amounts there are still no people living in relative income
poverty.

What if the difference in incomes is larger?
14. However, this time:
• 3 people earn £30 per week
• 7 people earn £50 per week
• 20 earn £80
• 40 earn £100
• 30 earn £130
The median income is still £100 (as 30 people earn below £100 and 30
people earn above £100)
So 60% of the median income is still £60.
But now, because of the way income is distributed, there are 10 people
living in relative income poverty.

16. Conclusion
1. Relative income poverty is a measure of income
inequality - It does not measure whether or not
incomes meet what is needed for a basic standard
of living.
2. If household incomes are very similar, the rate of
relative income poverty will be low, it could even be
zero. This is because it measures how close incomes
are to the average (as given by the median).
Let’s look at the actual income
distribution in the UK . . .

Equivalised net household income
(on a per week basis)
Notes:
1. Equivalisation is a statistical process that allows comparisons to be made of individuals of different ages from different sized households.
2. There are another 5.7 million individuals not shown on this chart because they have a household income above £1,000 per week
3. There is a higher bar at zero due to a mix of factors. These include those who are self-employed reporting a loss whose income is set to zero if it is negative
and those temporarily without an income at the point of interview. It may also include households who have misreported their income.
Everyone below this threshold is in
relative income poverty – this is around 10.4 million people
or 16% of the UK population.
Relative income
poverty line
Median income = £494 per week
18. Finally, what happens to relative income
poverty if the average income falls?
• 3 people earn £30 per week
• 7 people earn £50 per week
• 20 earn £80
• 40 earn £100
• 30 earn £130
• Median income = £100
• 60% of median = £60
• There are 10 people in relative
income poverty (the 7 people
earning £50 a week and the 3 people
earning £30 a week).
• 3 people earn £30 per week
• 7 people earn £50 per week
• 20 earn £80
• 40 earn £83
• 30 earn £130
• Median income = £83
• 60% of median = £49.8
• Now there are only 3 people in
relative income poverty (the 3
people earning £30 a week)
Scenario 1 Scenario 2
Imagine the average income falls but all else remains the same:
The percentage of people in relative income poverty falls, but no one is better off in
terms of living standards – in fact those on average incomes are worse off. This
situation can happen during a recession.
This is why it is important to consider other measures of poverty alongside relative
income poverty . . .

20. Calculating the median of 100 values

120 120 120 120 120 120 120 120 120 120
There is no single income in the middle because there 100 values.
To get the median we take the 50th and the 51st value, add them together and divide by 2.
In this case the 50th and 51st value both = £100
£100 + £100 = £200.
£200 divided by 2 = £100

Editor's Notes
I don’t think its necessarily finaicial situation – that’s realtive income poverty but couldn’t you have other types relative social poverty/ relative health poverty?
