SUMMARY:Vint Cerf to discuss scenarios and solutions | Global Warming: Calculating Risk | Global Climate Action Forum
DESCRIPTION:[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9g_WmnXPfw[/embedyt] \nPlease join and collaborate with our own Vint Cerf as we discuss scenarios and solutions | Global Warming: Calculating Risk | Global Climate Action Forum: \nNote there are three links where Vint Cerf is speaking\n\n\n\nVinton Cerf – Global Warming: Calculating Risk: here\nBreakout room facilitator Vinton Cerf: listen to insights here\nVinton Cerf – the ‘The Queue Theory’ and how it relates to humanity: here\n\n  \n\n\nGLOBAL CLIMATE ACTION FORUM powered by BBG\nGlobal Warming: Calculating Risk\nwith Vinton Cerf3rd May 2022 Tuesday\n8:00 am – 10:00 am NSW | ZoomVint Cerf is recognized as one of “the fathers of the Internet”. Join us\, as Vint explores how Technology will drive the change with Climate Change and Global Warming. \nGlobal warming is underway and it is unlikely we can do more than delay its impact. We must start thinking more about coping with — than stopping — the effects. Computing has a role to play. No\, not limiting the data centres — we need the computational power and we are reducing power requirements per FLOP as we speak. We need to capture and analyse a lot of sensor data to predict impacts. We need to use machine learning to control pollution\, consumption\, distribution of energy. We need to use our knowledge of DNA and biology to craft food sources that survive at higher temperatures and use less water. We need to plan for potentially massive migration from areas growing uninhabitable. Let’s use our computing power to enhance our ability to design responses to this clear and present threat.\n\nJoin Vint Cerf – WORLD AUTHORITY FIGURE IN TECHNOLOGY – as he explores the emerging technologies and the impacts they will have on business\, culture\, Climate Change and Global Warming. \nThis is a highly interactive event. \nWe will collaborate and collectively discuss issues\, solutions and actionable steps.\n\nSPEAKER – WORLD AUTHORITY FIGURE – Vinton Gray Cerf known as a “Father of the Internet\,” Cerf is the co-designer of the TCP/IP protocols and the architecture of the Internet. \nIn December 1997\, President Bill Clinton presented the U.S. National Medal of Technology to Cerf and his colleague\, Robert E. Kahn\, for founding and developing the Internet. In 2004\, Cerf was the recipient of the ACM Alan M. Turing award (sometimes called the “Nobel Prize of Computer Science”) and in 2005 he was given the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President George Bush. \nYOU & THE #BBGTHINKTANK \nVint’s “knowledge share” will be followed by the #bbgthinktank\, where you will breakout into a group of 5-7 delegates and explore how you can implement the learnings from Vint into your organisation. These insights will be ‘unpacked’ and discussed. \nI’m sure you will find this forum useful\, informative and stimulating. \nIf you’re interested in learning\, collaborating and growing with us\, join us at this forum. \nYou will be provided with a Zoom link prior to the meeting. \nWe look forward to seeing you there! \nOnwards and upwards\,\nThe BBG Climate Action Forum Members \nFeel free to join us on our other forums. \n\n\nhttps://events.humanitix.com/global-warming-calculating-risk-with-vint-cerf-global-climate-action-forum-powered-by-bbg [events.humanitix.com]

SUMMARY:Ukraine IT Update 2022: Resilience and Leadership
DESCRIPTION:Dear Colleagues\,\n \nI wanted to share a quick update regarding a special CxOTalk live discussion organized by Michael Krigsman. Live on Tuesday\, 12 April 2022 – he will host both Konstantin Vasyuk – Executive Director of the IT Ukraine Association\, the largest association of the tech industry in Ukraine – and I for a conversation on what is right now one of “the ultimate tests in IT resiliency”\, specially providing IT services in Ukraine amid everything happening in that conflict region. \nThose of us who have had the privilege to serve in IT leadership positions know it’s a combination of having long-term vision and day-to-day execution with the reality that when IT works\, practically no one notices\, and when it doesn’t for whatever reason folks can get vocal. Providing IT services to keep things running in Ukraine\, especially essential services in a warzone\, is tremendously demanding – and I hope you’ll join Michael and I as we here from Konstantin first-hand his experiences being “on the front lines” literally with IT resilience and leadership in Ukraine. \nFollow this link to watch to show will be live from 1300-1345 ET on 12 April with a video replay available later on CxOTalk.com – and as always\, please Be Bold\, Be Brave\, and Be Benevolent!

SUMMARY:Conversation on Assessing Meaningful Community Engagement
DESCRIPTION:To better assess the extent\, process\, and impact of community engagement\, the NAM Leadership Consortium partnered with a diverse and inclusive Organizing Committee to develop a new resource illustrating the dynamic relationship between community engagement and measurable and meaningful outcomes\, called the Assessing Community Engagement Conceptual Model. The model demonstrates how meaningful community engagement can lead to strengthened relationships and alliances\, expanded knowledge\, improved health and health care programs and policies\, and thriving communities – and ultimately health equity through transformed systems for health.\nRecently\, the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) Leadership Consortium held a conversation with the Organizing Committee for Assessing Meaningful Community Engagement in Health and Health Care to discuss the model’s potential to transform systems that foster health equity.\nDuring this conversation\, participants: \ndiscussed the relationship between community engagement\, meaningful outcomes in health and health care\, and transformed systems for health;\nengaged the perspectives of Organizing Committee members on the development and potential implementation of the Assessing Community Engagement Conceptual Model;\ndescribed forthcoming resources to support assessing community engagement; and\nanswered questions and shared reflections on the Assessing Community Engagement Conceptual Model.\nView a recording of the conversation and access other materials on-demand now!\nView Materials\nClick here to read the Commentary on the Assessing Community Engagement Conceptual Model\, and here to learn more information about the project.\nClick the sessions below to view meeting highlights! \nView Materials\nHelp us spread the word about the webinar! \nTweet this!

SUMMARY:clean-IT Conference
DESCRIPTION:March 30\, 2022\n\n\nThe clean-IT Conference is an international platform for the exchange of ideas to make the digital world more sustainable. High-ranking policy and industry leaders engaged in a dialogue with academia and civil society to address the pressing issue of how digital technologies can support the fight against climate change and what needs to be done to reduce the carbon footprint of digitalization. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www10-fms.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/vod/media/WS_2021/CIT_2022/CIT_2022_03_30_13/hd/video.mp4\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\nAt a Glance\n\n\nclean-IT Conference 2022 \n\nDate: March 30\, 2022*\nLocation/Directions: Lecture Halls\, Campus I\, Hasso Plattner Institute\, Potsdam\nLanguage: German/English (simultaneous translation)→ Program\n→ Brochure\n→ Recording\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\nGoals of the clean-IT Conference 2022\n\n\nIt is clear that digital technologies are indispensable for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and reducing carbon emissions in many sectors. Digital technologies are the key to reduce poverty\, malnutrition or hunger\, conflict and inequality. Nevertheless\, efforts must be made to greatly improve the energy-efficiency of IT systems. This includes measures to develop methods to make IT systems more energy-efficient. To achieve this goal stakeholders of all sectors need to work together to make “sustainability by design” in computing the leading paradigm of digital engineering. \n\n\n\n  \n\n* The event will be held in strict compliance with a hygiene concept and the then applicable corona regulations. If the event cannot take place on the specified date due to Corona\, the event will be postponed.

SUMMARY:Community Organized Event: Invitation to UN discussion on 3D Printing: Its Potential and Implications for International Security
DESCRIPTION:Dear Colleagues\,\n\nYou are invited to a conversation with the Japanese Permanent Representative to the UN\, UN Under-Secretary General Izumi Nakamitsu\, on 3D Printing: Its Potential and Implications for International Security. The event will occur from 1000-1100 ET this Thursday\, 02 December (0700-0800 Pacific).\n\nLike other emerging technologies\, 3D printing offers the prospects of new possibilities for progress and human uplift. As technology\, 3D printing does not pose a threat in and of itself. It has the capability to yield great benefits for society. However\, this capability can also be redirected for malign ends. \nMany of the same characteristics that make it valuable to legitimate manufacturers—speed to delivery\, on-demand production\, more efficient inventory management\, design innovation\, and lower barriers to entry into new markets—can be used for nefarious purposes\, including in ways that could have negative implications for international security. Given the further technological development of 3D printing and its real-world applications over the past few years\, this event will discuss the likely next steps and how the United Nations can play a constructive role\, including in the field of non-proliferation. \n\nhttps://stimsoncenter.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Sx86OH61R9KBUEpsUDTVVw?utm_source=Stimson+Center&utm_campaign=c010cef739-StD%2FTTS%2FTurtle+Bay+Webinar&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_15c3e20f70-c010cef739-4625020

All participants are welcome to call a session in the opening circle. Sessions can be discussions about critical questions\, presentations\, requests for feedback on a paper or proposal\, demo’s of tools or other creative forms.There are no keynotes or panels\, so it’s about connecting with others\, and sharing information about ideas\, projects and collaboration.Each room in the virtual venue will have a space to take notes and track outcomes from the event. Each person who attends will get a copy of all the notes from the sessions which can support organizing and coordination around next steps.The Hosts:Kaliya Young also known as the Identity Woman for her work on user-centric digital identity\, a keystone tool needed for migration off of Facebook. Since 2005 she has convened the Internet Identity Workshop that uses Open Space Technology. She also founded Unconference.net to work with organizations and communities helping them design and facilitate interactive events.Micah L. Sifry is a writer and organizer who focuses on the intersection of politics\, tech and civic life.

It is intended in part to be an alternative to Facebook for one narrow purpose: Reaching and mobilizing potential supporters and donors. Obviously don’t want to do anything that feels like a pitch for the company\, but would be happy to preview what we’re working on and brainstorm other alternatives to FB for progressive organizers and Democratic practitioners\, if appropriate.\nSo many! How to get our users (and data) back? Specifically\, if Facebook is now largely pay to play\, what are the implications – how do we take back our audiences\, incentivize them to come to our platforms?\nWould like to dig in on transparency as a mechanism for accountability and supporting researchers like Laura Edelson.\nSession on addressing the core issue facing us today: loneliness and lack of community.\nI’d be interested in participating in a session talking about alternatives to Slack\, and/or scaling up Slack networks.\nCould Congress be remade as a Trust Engine?\nI’d like to showcase our decentralized social network and community moderation protocol\nEconomic Models for Functional Separation (how to fund moderation VS how to fund hosting)\nDecentralized social networks\nIs FB compatible with a Just Economy?\nWhat are the requirements for a Human-centered social media paradigm?\nHow can we create communication solutions that bring out the best in people online?\nWhat antitrust can and can’t do to stop Facebook\nHow to create FB replacements that are prosocial\, decentralized\, and that allow collective action for Good (not hijacked by bad actors). And how to achieve tipping point to the new models.\nWhat is the fastest way to replace Facebook Groups with usable\, non-manipulative\, ad-free forums (ideally self-hosted/peer-to-peer)\, including handling spam\, and get people all over the world feel happy to migrate rapidly?\nhuman-friendly alternatives\nAvoiding perceptions of political bias in tech\nalternative to facebook\nBest platforms for informing/organizing…what if wikis and hyperlocal daily news and a powerful CRM had a baby?\nWho is pushing decentralized social media and why; how to keep decentralized social media from devolving into genocide\nVerifiable identity through decentralized means\nIssues of Free Speech with accountability; why we are suing Twitter; the progressive potential of behavioral targeting with accountability and restraints.\nFacebook as alternative political media\nWhat governance and social incentives are needed to help move toward more responsible digital ecosystem?\nDecentralized Governance\nDecentralized identity\nHappy to talk about Hylo and the interoperability efforts of the Collaborative Technology Alliance\nmicroevents\, non-technical participants\, community building\nMicro-influencer campaigns as a replacement for FB Ads: is this something?
