German Chancellor Angela Merkel debated the future of Europe with MEPs and the President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, on Tuesday.
“Tolerance is the soul of Europe and an essential basic value of the European idea”, Mrs Merkel said. This soul has been strained in recent years however, by many different challenges such as public debt, terrorism, wars being waged close to our continent, migration, digitalisation or climate change.
All of these can only be tackled successfully if Europe acts united and if we “treat the interests and needs of others as our own. Solidarity is based on tolerance and this is Europe’s strength. It is part of our common European DNA and it means overcoming national egoisms”.

The German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) will present its latest projects and research results at the ILA Berlin Air Show from 25 to 29 April 2018. Again one of the largest institutional exhibitors in 2018, DLR will provide fascinating insights into its current research on an approximately 700-square-metre stand in Hall 4, in the Space Pavilion, on the stand of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) in Hall 2, and at the ILA CareerCenter in Hall 1. DLR will also use the outdoor area at ILA to showcase a large part of its research fleet – with various helicopters and aircraft – including its largest fleet member, the A320 ATRA, as well as a variety of experimental aircraft for uncrewed flight.

Digital technologies continue to transform nearly every aspect of our business and personal lives, from the use of payment technologies to manufacturing production lines and the ways we write, read and communicate. This transformation is happening despite, or maybe because of, the crises we face. Digitalisation reshapes the economy and disrupts traditional industries, and allows us to address the geopolitical, economic and social challenges ahead. Yet, delivering on the digital dividend in a cyber safe environment requires a “system upgrade”. And that “system upgrade” is the focus of this event. The EBRD has made the digitalisation of its economies and its clients a major priority, by launching a digital strategy for the years ahead and upgrading the support to clients and investors in their digital ambitions. This panel brings together leading voices in digital change, including investors, business and policy leaders, to discuss key questions around new technologies and the digital world. They also explore issues related to digital transition in EBRD economies, such as market concentration, risks to cybersecurity and the fear of automation.

A second film with my newly-arrived FOCA Universel "R", a French range-finder 35mm camera of the 50's.
The camera was loaded with an IlfordFP4+ 36-exposure film. It was exposed for 125 ISO using an Autometer III Minolta lightmeter fitted with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas. The Oplarex lens was equipped with a Foca AUV push-on 42mm protective filter and a generic cylindrical shade hood.
Gymnase René Baillieu et Internat Ad. Favre, April 15, 2023
53, rue Philipe de Lassalles
69004 Lyon
France
After exposure, the film was revealed using Adox Adonal (Agfa Rodinal) developper at dilution 1+25 and 20°C for 9min. The film was then digitalized using a Sony A7 body fitted to a Minolta Slide Duplicator installed on a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5. The RAW files obtained were processed without intermediate files in LR and edited to the final jpeg pictures.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg accompanied by some documentary smartphone Vivio Y76 color pictures.
About the camera :
The Foca Universel "R" is the late series (circa 1956-1962) of the Foca Universel 35mm range-finder camera appeared in 1950 and produced until 1956. The Universel model of FOCa was fitted with a bayonet mount instead of the 36mm screw mount of other Foca PF (PF standing for "Petit Format"). Foca camera's were constructed in France by the company "Optique & Precision de Levallois" (OPL) in the OPL factory of Chateaudun (Eure) starting from 1947. This factory still exists under the name of SAFRAN a French company producing aerospace devices and systems. This exemplary of Foca Universel R was likely manufactured in 1959 or 1960.
The camera is equipped with the collapsible OPLAREX lens 1:1.9 f=5cm with the OPL bayonet mount.

ITF Secretary-General Young Tae Kim addressed the OECD Forum on Artificial Intelligence (AI) on 27 October 2017, speaking about the impact of digitalisation, automation and AI on transport and mobility.
To what extent can we prepare for the global shifts reshaping our world? How should we respond to digitalisation, urbanisation, resource scarcity and economic power shifts? Will futureproofing today make for a better tomorrow? The Megatrends session explored global macroeconomic and geostrategic forces that are shaping the region and our world in significant ways. It was recorded before a live audience who asked questions directly to the panelists, and was later transmitted for the EBRD podcast series. This panel aimed to expose the depth and complexity of these Megatrends which will require innovative and collaborative solutions at the local, national, regional and international levels. With the help of five well-known thought leaders, the session discussed the major trends, their drivers, opportunities and risks, as well as explored what actions might help to manage the waves of disruptive transitions.

Until recently, the climatic phenomenon known as dzud – characterised by a very harsh winter and other conditions which limit access to forage for animals in the Mongolian steppe - occurred once or twice in a decade. Today, climatic changes and human induced environmental degradation have intensified the frequency and intensity of the dzud, which results in the death of millions of livestock – from starvation. As part of a disaster preparedness project aimed at building up the resilience of Mongolian herders, the EU’s partner People in Need (PIN) has created an SMS service in order for them to access the weather forecast and data on pasture degradation, thereby providing them with a crucial tool to take precautionary measures and better manage their herds in case of dzud. The project also supports local authorities in remote districts in the development of disaster management plans.

Malawi is a small country in southern Africa with a population of 14 million people who mainly rely on agriculture as a means of subsistence. In 2017, drought in the country affected more than half the population. EU humanitarian support enables Malawian communities to build resilience against natural disasters such as floods and drought.
This EU-funded project uses drones to create maps. The maps help to locate resources such as hospitals, schools, and roads which are all vital in providing safe shelter for the population in case of a disaster. When any population is trained and aware of disaster risks and safe spaces, lives are saved.
