SUMMARY:The Hague Summer Institute on Peace Engineering Public Event
DESCRIPTION:What if you could make great contributions to society\, within governments\, developing countries\, and crisis situations\, but still have the prestige\, pay and promising career options that come with a professional engineering degree?\n\n\n\nThe same way you can get a degree in Aeronautical\, Civil or Electrical Engineering\, imagine if you could build a career in Peace Engineering.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 2017\, The World Engineering Education Forum\, the Global Engineering Deans Council\, and the International Federation of Engineering decided this needed to become the new reality. The next year\, they hosted the first-ever Peace Engineering Conference\, where Drexel University\, the University of Colorado-Boulder\, the Peace Innovation Lab at Stanford\, the University of New Mexico\, and SensorComm Technologies\, were tasked to form the Peace Engineering Consortium. \n\n\n\nTheir mission? To apply science and engineering principles\, and trans-disciplinary systems-level thinking\, to establish rigorous design principles and processes that directly promote and support conditions for peace\, while ensuring the safe and ethical deployment of emerging technologies. \n\n\n\nDuring the week of August 19\, 2019\, the Peace Innovation Institute will convene Consortium members\, and a select group of top practitioners and researchers from around the world\, for the first Peace Engineering Summer Institute. Hosted by our colleagues from TU Delft and The Hague Humanity Hub\, we will lay the foundations of a Peace Engineering degree program that partner universities will be able to offer to their students. \n\n\n\nOn the morning of Friday August the 23rd\, you are invited to attend the final session of the first Peace Engineering Summer Institute. Join us as we present our plan for the future of Peace Engineering\, research and education.  \n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend\n\n\n\n\nEntrepreneurs who are interested in building for-profit PeaceTech startups\nCorporate executives who are interested in creating positive\, high-performance cultures in their organization\nAcademics who are interested in the rigorous\, systematic research\, development\, validation\, and deployment of PeaceTech systems\, and of their effect on society.\nNGOs who are looking for high leverage positive impact on previously intractable social challenges\nGovernment mayors and ministers who care about ways to measurably strengthen social fabric in their community\, constituency\, or society\, while also strengthening positive relations with their neighbors.\nESG and Social Impact Investors who are seeking emerging high value technology green fields that also have high positive social impact.\nStudents who are interested in a Peace Engineering career.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy you should come\n\n\n\nWith this first annual Summer Institute\, Peace Engineering is poised to take off globally\, and The Hague is going to be at the epicenter. If you’re interested in a Peace Engineering career\, as a practitioner or researcher\, or if your organization is interested in creating positive social impact\, this open session is where you need to be. \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nSeating for the open session this year is limited\, and by RSVP only\, so please respond quickly.

SUMMARY:Introduction to the Guide on NGO and Company Partnerships for Inclusive Business
DESCRIPTION:Join this online webinar to discover the key findings of the recently published Guide on Inclusive Business Partnerships and listen to the experiences of NGOs and companies \nAre you interested in Inclusive Business Partnerships? Do you want to know how to create and manage such partnerships between NGOs and companies? Curious to hear about real\, direct experiences of the two parties involved? Then join the webinar on July 23\, 15.00-16.30 (CET)\, where the recently published Guide on NGO and Company Partnerships for Inclusive Businessand its key findings will be presented. \nInclusive Business Partnerships constitute an innovative and promising form of cooperation between NGOs and businesses. However\, the NGO world and the private sector differ significantly and sometimes cannot even understand each other. This makes cooperation between the two challenging. This is why The Spindle commissioned Endeva to write a guide on the topic\, which has recently been published. The writing process involved the collection of various case studies\, as well as extensive feedback from a core group of the Dutch Platform Leave No One Behind. \nThe Guide on NGO and Company Partnerships for Inclusive Business is specifically aimed at NGOs\, but it is undoubtedly relevant for companies too to be able to understand their NGO partners better and be confronted with a mirror of their own experience. The publication is a very practical tool which focuses on the how of inclusive business partnerships and covers the entire process – from the decision to engage in such a partnership to the possibilities of scaling up or moving on. You can read the full guide here. \nIn order to distil and spread the key findings of the publication\, the authors are organising a webinar on July 23\, 15.00-16.30 (CET). During this online session\, we will discuss the main insights concerning Inclusive Business Partnerships and share practical and useful guidelines on how to approach and manage them. Furthermore\, you will have the chance to hear directly from NGOs and companies about their direct experiences with this form of cooperation. Accordingly\, you can expect a highly interesting and inspiring exchange\, so make sure not to miss it! \n  \nMore information and registration: \nhttps://thespindle.org/event/webinar-introduction-to-the-guide-on-ngo-and-company-partnerships-for-inclusive-business/

SUMMARY:Changing dynamics: Southern leadership in humanitarian response
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nHow can the international humanitarian sector stimulate and support Southern Leadership in Humanitarian Responses?\n\nField Coordinators are at the heart of humanitarian responses of the Dutch Relief Alliance (DRA)\, working in disaster areas world wide. Their role is to coordinate the joint response and shared activities between partners at field level. As an example of international consortia aiming to work more closely with and through local partners\, the Field Coordinators are coming up against challenges around southern leadership on a daily basis. Using the opportunity of Field Coodinators being in the Hague\, the DRA and KUNO give the floor to them; what do they think is needed to stimulate Southern Leadership in humanitarian responses? \nSmruti Patel\, co-director of the Global Mentoring Initiative\, will kick off with a setting of the scene\, followed by the experiences and insights of the Field Coordinators for engaging local actors\, and further discussions. \nThe panellists are: \n\nAbdur Rauf Safi\, Field Coordinator Afghanistan Joint Response\nJoseph Kayi\, Field Coordinator South Sudan Joint Response\nTino Muzivashi\, Field Coordinator Sudan Joint Response\nAhmed Hussein\, Field Coordinator Iraq Joint Response\n\nSome of the questions that will be addressed: \n\nHow can we as international organisations better support local actors in humanitarian emergencies?\nWhat is our role as international organsiations when it comes to locally-led decision-making in humanitarian emergencies?\nHow is direct funding of local organisations best supported through existing international funding mechanisms like the DRA?\n\nThe DRA and KUNO invite you to this open debate on stimulating Southern leadership. \n\nRegister here: https://www.kuno-platform.nl/events/changing-dynamics-southern-leadership-in-humanitarian-response/

SUMMARY:'Linking Thinking' - Reflections on the Nexus
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nFor over three decades\, the international aid community has recognised the importance of working more closely together\, in order to get better outcomes for people affected by ‘natural’ disasters and conflict-related crises. However\, achieving this in practice has proved remarkably difficult. What is new in the latest round of ‘linking’ thinking and has it a greater chance of success than previous efforts?\n\nThe Humanitarian – Development Nexus is high on the agenda. Again. Discussions about the Nexus lead to strong disputes within the humanitarian sector. Some humanitarian professionals argue they have been working with the Nexus for decades and that we just all should start working on it. Other humanitarian professionals\, confronted with the Nexus debate\, underline the differences between humanitarian action and development work\, and stress the humanitarian principles. All argue the Nexus has been discussed for decades\, but did not bring the desired results. \n• What can we learn from the discussions of the past decades?\n• Is the current context different?\n• What are useful ways forward?\n• And what is needed for this? \nKUNO asked researcher Joanna Macrae to take stock of the ongoing debate and to look forward. This resulted in the research-­paper ‘Linking Thinking’ Why it is so hard and what can we do about it? which you can read here. \nKUNO kindly invites you to the presentation of the report ‘Linking Thinking’ on Friday 28 June. \nKick off by: Joanna Macrae. \nFirst reactions are given by: \n\nGerrit-Jan van Uffelen\, Van Hall Larenstein University\,\nInge Leuverink\, Cordaid.\n\nAfter that\, we would like to discuss the findings of the report and necessary next steps with all humanitarian professional present. \n\n  \nRegister by writing to kuno@kuno-platform.nl

SUMMARY:Dialogue and dissent: Looking at the role of civil society in achieving SDG 6 by 2030
DESCRIPTION:In 2014\, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) of the Netherlands published its policy note ‘Dialogue and Dissent’ to give shape to a series of new Strategic Partnerships for ‘lobby and advocacy’. The key premise behind this is that civil society plays a crucial role in achieving the sustainable development agenda and standing up for social\, environmental\, economic and human rights. They are the ones who articulate their rights and needs; the ones who need to hold government and other actors to account; and lobby and advocate for changes in policies\, legislation and funding. But\, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) often cannot fulfil their role. \nAs part of the Dialogue and Dissent programmes\, 25 (consortia of) CSOs were selected as strategic partners in the area of lobby and advocacy for the period 2016-2020. This includes a number of partnerships around the broad theme of water\, including Watershed (focusing on strengthening water and sanitation governance); Voice for Change Partnership (focusing on several sectors including WASH) and Partners for Resilience (focusing on resilience amongst others in water resources management). \nThe key rationale behind these three partnerships is the recognition that the world faces a water crisis\, in which still too many people lack access to safely managed water supplies and sanitation facilities\, where people are facing increasing levels of water scarcity or are threatened by flooding. \nTo address this water crisis\, CSOs play a number of crucial roles such as: \n1. Claiming the human rights to water and to sanitation\n2. Holding government to account for their role as duty bearers in WASH service delivery and water resources management\n3. Ensuring they have a voice in discussions on access to and allocation of water resources \n  \nFor more information\, and to register\, see the IRC website

SUMMARY:Future Session - Guiding Innovation: Towards a common processes and practices
DESCRIPTION:The Spindle and the Hague Humanity Hub have joined forces to organise a series of inspirational working sessions for our mutual communities! In these aptly named “Future Sessions”\, we’ll explore the relevance of trends in innovation for the future of development cooperation. They are high in energy and always involve the input and unique perspective from an expert in his or her field. On June 25 we focus on the core of the innovation process: \nInnovation has become an imperative for the development sector\, but how do we produce a steady flow of well-designed solutions? This is a very hard to reach goal when clear parameters for successful innovation are lacking. \nThe usual approach to fulfil the need for well-designed solutions is to engage in lots of experimentation – often involving great risks and a success rate that is unpredictable. So how does innovation effectively address a problem\, evidence its impact\, and has the potential to be scaled? \nLearning from the outcomes of the Humanitarian Action Challenge\, an innovative challenge connecting Businesses and NGOs\,  Thomas Baar (Centre for Innovation\, Leiden University)\, with the facilitative help of experienced social innovator Mariken Gaanderse\, will focus on common challenges in innovation during this session. Together with you\, he will discuss how this relates to your experiences and how to set up standards to make our innovation processes more accountable and more responsible. \nThomas will share with you the challenges and successes at different stages of the innovation journey\, take a deep dive into the learnings of the brand new Humanitarian Innovation Guide and inspire you with its further developments. \n  \nRegister on The Spindle’s website

SUMMARY:Het Internet is aan Vernieuwing Toe
DESCRIPTION:De aanvankelijke euforie over de democratisering van informatie en onderlinge verbondenheid is omgeslagen in een ander beeld: het internet vormt een bedreiging voor de democratie\, het fragmenteert de samenleving en een beperkt aantal digitale platforms ontleent ongekende macht en waarde aan de exploitatie van data afkomstig van individuele burgers. Hoe nu verder? Welke opties zijn er? Welke infrastructuur missen we om onze rechten uit de AVG en PSD2 ook daadwerkelijk uit te kunnen oefenen? In dit mini-symposium wordt de context geschetst\, worden kernvragen aan de orde gesteld en komen oplossingsrichtingen aan bod. \nLinda Kool\nSenior-researcher van het Rathenau Instituut\, thema-leider van Digitale Samenleving\nLinda belicht de maatschappelijke en ethische kant. Wat betekenen deze technologieën voor onze autonomie\, privacy en veiligheid en ongelijke machtsverhoudingen? Welke spelregels zijn van belang? \nWouter van Noort\nRedacteur economie en technologie voor NRC Handelsblad en commentator EenVandaag\nWouter schrijft met name over technologie. In zijn boek ‘Is daar iemand?’ deed hij uit de doeken hoe fabrikanten ons verslaafd maken aan de smartphone. Een – geleende – uitspraak van hem: ‘first we shape our tools\, thereafter our tools shape us’. \nDouwe Lycklama à Nijeholt\nMede-oprichter van adviesbureau Innopay en mede-auteur van het boek ‘Alles Transactie’\nDouwe Lycklama is founding partner van Innopay\, een internationale adviespraktijk voor bedrijven en overheid gespecialiseerd in digitale transacties\, data\, betalen en identiteit. Zijn recente boek over platformaties en transactioneel internet\, ‘Alles transactie’\, is recent tot Managementboek van 2019 uitgeroepen. \nDe Tweede Kamerleden Jan Middendorp (informatiesamenleving\, identiteit) en Martin Wörsdörfer (digitalisering\, mededinging) zullen reflecteren op het onderwerp. Jan Middendorp diende recent een initiatiefvoorstel in voor toezicht op AI. Moderator: Hugo Bellaart. \nToegang gratis (drankjes voor eigen rekening)\nOpen voor leden en niet-leden van de VVD\nAanmelden via e-mail of www.mijnVVD.nl (niet-leden maken een account aan)
