Small Group Discussion: Localizing Agricultural Value Chains for Shared Prosperity
The world’s agricultural economy exceeds $2 trillion, yet much of the production, processing, and manufacturing for high value food products that could be energizing developing economies instead takes place in developed countries, reducing opportunities for local livelihood improvement and economic growth. Some companies have identified an opportunity to strengthen their own businesses and invest in local livelihoods by keeping high-value processing and manufacturing in the low-income countries where their agricultural products are sourced. Others are localizing their supply chains, ensuring that food products they sell within developing countries are made using locally sourced ingredients. These trends can empower smallholder farmers, strengthen small- and medium-sized enterprises, and mitigate the climate footprint resulting from the transportation of goods across the globe, while at the same time reducing companies’ sourcing and production costs. To ensure that localized supply chains and value chains can function sustainably, businesses must cultivate ecosystems that support this type of business environment and the human capital needed for growth and prosperity.
In this session, participants will:
• Explore the economic, environmental, and social opportunities that can be achieved through local value chains and the partnerships that can make these possible.
• Examine case studies of successful efforts to localize supply chains serving domestic markets and create value chains in low-income countries to serve global markets.
MODERATOR:
Don Seville, Co-Director, Sustainable Food Lab
PARTICIPANTS:
Blanca Juti, Chief Corporate Relations Officer, Heineken
Jacqueline Novogratz, Founder and CEO, Acumen
Magatte Wade, Founder and CEO, Tiossan
Day 2: Localization, Star Ferry, First touches of Kowloon, Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Animal-, Flower-, and Bird Markets and Chi Lin Nunnery.

Backbone Campaign greeted President Obama in Seattle for a Democratic fundraiser with giant banners above his motorcade and life-like representations of the Washington State democratic delegation.
Simultaneously, people outrage by representatives not yet outright opposing the TPP packed the entrance to the Washington Convention Center where the fundraiser was being held and surrounding streets. A Star Wars themed Trans-Pacific Partnership Death Star was inflated and Rebel Alliance Starfighters standing up for sovereignty, human and workers rights, safe climate, affordable medicine and more greeted the democratic donor base as they entered.
We wanted there to be NO mistake - We the People consider a vote for the TPP a catastrophic, unforgivable BETRAYAL. An unaccountable vote planned for the post election Congressional session would add a cowardly insult to the injury of this disastrous corporate coup that shifts power away from governments to transnational corporations and the greedy who hide behind them. Washington State's Congressional delegation, especially Senators Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell, and Congressmembers Denny Heck, Rick Larson, Susan DelBene, Rick Larsen and Derek Kilmer need to know they will NOT be able to show their faces in public if they BETRAY the people they are supposed to serve.
Obama's visit occurred during Backbone Campaign's 8th annual Localize This! Action Camp. Thus, we jumped at the chance to put artful activism lessons into action. Enjoy pictures and video provided by Andrew Sigman, Joyce Marin, John P Duffy and Daniel Lee. #FLUSHTHETPP #TPPisBetrayal

Racism: The Elephant in the Room (or Park)
Seattle, Washington, August 17, 2015 - People are invited to participatein a public interactive art installation to expose racism as the"elephant in the room".
On Monday, August 17, 2015, from 11:00 am to 1:30 pm, at Westlake Parkin Seattle, the public is invited to join us in learning about racismand white privilege through visually rich, interactive art andengagement in positive dialog and seek skills for addressinginstitutional racism.
At 2 pm, the action moves from Westlake to the City Council chambers. There, activists will challenge City Council members to combatinstitutional racism by protecting Hookah Lounges, predominantly ownedby people of color and currently under attack. They will also call onthe Council to reject zoning that will permit the construction of anexpanded juvenile detention center, misleadingly called the "King CountyFamily and Children's Justice Center," stop the city-sponsoredgentrification of areas in the city that are home to people of color,and to end police brutality.
This interactive art exhibit and challenge to the City Council arecoming from a collection of activists who are from the Pacific Northwestand around the country that met at a Backbone Campaign's Localize This! Action Camp. As a group, we are predominantly white activists who are looking inwardsand reaching out to our peers to join us in this action. We arechallenging ourselves and others to move beyond denial and defensivenessto commit to taking one concrete step towards racial justice and toshare our challenge.

This panorama was taken from River Road in Tonawanda NY. This storm was fascinating. It was so tightly localized to south Buffalo and was 20 miles or so wide. Outside of the zone (under the clouds see above) the weather was sunny and pleasant, although very windy, which was driving that flow of moisture from Lake Erie to the shore. Locals know this weather pattern as "Lake Effect Snow" and I guess the nation now knows that term as well. It comes and goes all winter as moisture is swept up from Lake Erie. As that moisture laden air hits shore it is driven up high into the atmosphere where it condenses and falls as snow. Lake Effect snow can be a few minutes of flakes or a blizzard as seen in the recent storm. Although as a passionate lover of Buffalo I always it necessary to let people know that Buffalo is FAR from the snow and cold capital of the world. People jokingly ask me if we have snow shoes in July (answer is NO). I think the best description of our weather is that it changes on a dime. It can be sunny and mild and a few hours later snowing a blizzard and then as fast as it starts it can blow away. Winter temperatures can get into the minuses but I have also seen 60 degree days in January. Occasionally the winds and moisture align just right and produce a storm like that seen on November 14.
Got this idea from Darren Wright, very cool. Use a vape to create localized smoke. Will have to try this out with something other then my phone. Jay from The Village Vaporette was game for a quick photo.

Continuing my thoughts around a localized and federated microblogging platform that would allow anonymous use (through a tool like Ushahidi married with a local FrontlineSMS syncing hub) in times of emergency.

Localization Summit
Presenters: Matt Whiting and Ted Woolsey (Microsoft Studios)
(c) The Photo Group 2012
In northwestern England, there is an extremely localized musical phenomenon. It's called Donk, and it's basically the best worst thing we've ever heard. Think cheesy rave music with bleeps and bloops put on top (these are the "donks") and the UK equivalent of a trailer park boy band rapping over it. Sounds amazing, huh? Our five-part Donk-umentary gets to the heart of the craze and examines this odd regional mania that most chaps in southern England don't even know about.
The Blackout Crew pose in the Harmony Center, where they formed and became the most popular group in the Donk party scene of northwestern England. Their song "Put a Donk on it" has been viewed on YouTube almost four million times.
