Value(s) for Money? Philanthropy as a Catalyst for Social Change (March 6-9, 2014)
Increasing social and environmental challenges, writ globally, are raising the stakes for philanthropy to find "solutions". The deeply complex nature of these challenges, however, defies easy fixes and requires more sophisticated and diffuse systems level approaches. Is the philanthropic sector ready, or capable of meeting critical systemic challenges? Probably not, as seen through the lens of Michael Edwards in a recent think piece entitled 'Beauty and the Beast: Can Money Ever Foster Social Transformation?'.
Innovative funding mechanisms that support social change - like crowd-funding, social impact bonds, payments for eco-system services and prize-backed challenges - have diversified the funding landscape and brought in new resources. The system, however, is arguably out of balance with too much focus placed on revenue-generation, and directing financial resources, through the market. At the same time, less funding is available for the deeper, less tangible drivers of social change - change that is driven by the beneficiaries themselves and is inherently more democratic. Money, while a seemingly essential tool in change processes, can be a "curse", reinforcing or exacerbating the very circumstances and power imbalances at the heart of systemic social challenges.
The objective of this program, in partnership with Hivos, is to shape a new narrative on funding for deep social change that can influence current and future funding trends and global policies.

Reducing food loss and waste is essential for building more efficient value chains, lowering the climate footprint of agri‑food systems, and improving farmer livelihoods. This seminar brings together new insights and emerging evidence on how to tackle this challenge from multiple angles.
In the first segment, Jocelyn Boiteau and Prabhu Pingali will share key findings from their new book, Wasted Potential: Tackling Food Loss and Waste Across Transforming Food Systems. Their work takes a holistic view of where losses occur from production through consumption, and how smarter policies and investments can meaningfully reduce them. The book importantly also highlights the need for better metrics and approaches to understanding where and why losses occur.
This book launch will be followed by presentations on new IFPRI research on innovative approaches to measuring and reducing food loss and waste in perishable foods. This includes research on the use of artificial intelligence to improve food loss measurement accuracy, reducing spoilage in meat supply chains, and other emerging tools for understanding and addressing losses in highly perishable products.
I took this photo because I noticed how the shadows and the warm evening light were projecting onto the log. If I could change anything, I would changed the area of focus to be closer to the lens.
I just had to take a shot of this t-shirt just for Ron.
Gee, last I checked that wasn't how I heard this was supposed to go ...
I've been struggling with the values in these 3 paintings for a while. If I can't resolve them soon I think it will mean abandon... which will be sad as I've become quite fond of my skeletons. The problem is that the skeletons are quite light in background. However I've tried to avoid darkening around them. If I had known that I needed to do that I probably would have cut them out and collaged rather than left them in one piece and need to paint around and in between their ribs.
The poor pennyfarthing is almost indistinguishable from the background colour in this black and white version and I think it needs far more pop. I've darkened around the had of the skeleton with the daschund and then spent ages using white to lighten the other two. I really don't know which way to go. I only know that they are unsuccessful as is.

Banská Štiavnica
is a town in central Slovakia, in the middle of an immense caldera created by the collapse of an ancient volcano. For its size, the caldera is known as Å tiavnica Mountains.
It is a completely preserved medieval town. Because of their historical value, the town and its surroundings were proclaimed by the UNESCO to be a World Heritage Site on December 11, 1993.
The fate of Banská Štiavnica has been closely linked to the exploitation of its abundant resources of silver ore.
However, at present the town is on the decline because there is no silver ore anymore and unemployment affects the inhabitants as well as the whole town. Å tiavnica is not prospering and just with the eye of a passerby you can see how many buildings are falling apart.
