One of the main objectives of the European Union is to promote economic, social and territorial cohesion between regions. The reformed EU Cohesion Policy 2014-2020 comes at a pivotal moment. Recent years of austerity have seen rising unemployment and widening inequality, especially in peripheral regions, with youth, women and ethnic minorities worst affected.
Making over €350 billion available to invest in Europe's regions, cities and the real economy, the reformed Cohesion Policy is the EU's principal investment tool to deliver the Europe 2020 goals: creating growth and jobs, tackling climate change and energy dependence, reducing poverty and social exclusion. Once member states’ national contributions and the leverage effect of financial instruments are taken into account, the impact is likely to be over €500 billion.
Launching a new partnership with the European Commission, with the participation of the OECD, Salzburg Global’s program is timed to help key stakeholders understand the rules and results-oriented focus of the reformed Cohesion Policy and ensure maximum impact for these investments. It will build on our longstanding European program which has featured over 15 sessions devoted to the EU’s development and expansion, grounded in our location at the crossroads of East and West.
The 2014 program will focus on ways in which regional development policy and complementary instruments can enhance competitiveness and effective governance at local, regional and transboundary levels.
Participants will examine tools for environmentally sustainable innovation, human capital development, creation and financing of SMEs and the transition to a low carbon economy. They will compare practical projects and mechanisms that have delivered successful outcomes for competitiveness and inclusive growth, in and beyond Europe, in order to identify transferable tools and connect stakeholders who are leading cutting-edge work around the world.
The program will be held from May 17 to May 22, 2014 in Salzburg, Austria, with a one day, high-level pre-session meeting on May 17-18, focusing on European competitiveness, the shift to low carbon economies, and the role of sustainable cities.

Somebody has added a sizeable collection of Ayn Rand to one of the bookshelves in the office.
Update: apparently it was a gift from some objectivists to one of the professors after a lecture. Now Rand has more than an order of magnitude more books in our library than any other philosopher.
I spent 5 minutes taking this cliche, over saturated, over cooked photo instead of jogging today. It cost me the last lap around the track that would have brought me to 2 miles. I like it.
The main objective of the project was to improve the quality of education received by students of the Livestock Training Agency (LITA) in Tengeru, Tanzania in the field of veterinary science (parasitology and parasitic diseases). The project was implemented by the foundation "Cultures of the World" and carried out by volunteer Maciej Klockiewicz.

A prime objective of this week's 1Z10 outing to the Blyth & Tyne area was trying to capture operations at North Blyth Alcan GBRF terminal by night. 6S45 North Blyth Alcan to Fort William Alcan loaded Alumina tanks. The train was in the hands of Royal Scotsman liveried 66 743 in the rather grubby maroon scheme. A cold clear moonlit night was had on Wednesday 15th January 2025 leading to some interesting shots.
This simple bee and this purple flower have a purpose. Each comes together, to fulfill an objective. It requires both to give and take; in doing so things move things forward. We also have a purpose.

The flower said "I'm here for you."
And the bee said "I thought so."
The Photographer said "I have captured true love."

With rare insight he diagnosed the pulse of the modern world and asked: Where is its frantic activity going? What is its ultimate goal? He also felt that many people lacked a sense of purpose, meaning, and direction, so that it is imperative to animate and energize to the maximum our zest for life, to discover the value of our work and efforts, to strengthen the bonds of the human community around the world through the powers of love and collaboration, to find new models of holiness and seek a new spirituality, a mysticism of action, commensurate with the world as we know it today.

Can we see the world through objective eyes, or are we always the slaves of our own experiences?
One of the things that make photography fascinating for me is the ability to capture the "world" as you see it. At first, one can be tempted to say that photography is just a perfect reproduction of reality, but most of the time, it's not even close to it. Why does a photo show this scene and not another one? Why does it have this subject? Why is it focused in this way and not another?
I think it's very hard to capture "reality" in an objective manner. Just the fact that you "capture" a piece of it, raises the question why this piece and not another one?
But does it really matter? Do we really want to see the world with cold, objective eyes? I highly doubt it. Perhaps there's always a hidden tendency in us to see something more; to enrich the cold features with our own details, to add colour to the grey shades, to see things that aren't there and to obstruct the things that we don't want to notice.

It’s objectively too late to restrain population and consumption growth so as to avert what ecologists of the 1970s called a “hard landing.”
It is the lie that human society can continue growing its population and consumption levels indefinitely on our finite planet, and never suffer consequences.
Perhaps Donald Trump succeeded because his promises spoke to what civilizations in decline tend to want to hear. It could be argued that the pluralistic, secular, cosmopolitan, tolerant, constitutional democratic nation state is a political arrangement appropriate for a growing economy buoyed by pervasive optimism. (On a scale much smaller than contemporary America, ancient Greece and Rome during their early expansionary periods provided examples of this kind of political-social arrangement). As societies contract, people turn fearful, angry, and pessimistic—and fear, anger, and pessimism fairly dripped from Trump’s inaugural address. In periods of decline, strongmen tend to arise promising to restore past glories and to defeat domestic and foreign enemies. Repressive kleptocracies are the rule rather than the exception.
Yes.. when world leaders like Trump & Erdogan visit our country, we stage protest marches.
