SUMMARY:Predicting Conflict: The Water\, Peace & Security Partnership Early Warning Tool
DESCRIPTION:The average level of peacefulness deteriorated for the ninth time in twelve years This link opens in a new tab. The nature of conflict is transforming across the world. Yet the information space is changing so quickly that it threatens to leave many early warning/early action (EWEA) efforts behind. Availability of big data\, including easy access to what people say and do online\, combined with advanced computational capacity\, opens a potential for the EWEA community to use the momentum and advance their field further. We believe that an important step in achieving this goal is exchanging the lessons and latest efforts transparently between actors and regions. With this goal\, we are facilitating this workshop as an open space for this exchange to happen. Join us! \n\n\n\nObjectives \n\n\n\nThe overall objective is to facilitate peer-to-peer exchange on best practices in EWEA. The event will bring together at the international level (for the first time) national and international actors working on early warning/early action to share lessons learned on effective models\, practices\, and methods to influence decision making and enable conflict prevention on the ground. It will also help to establish networks and create opportunities for capacity building with data visualization tools. Substantively\, the conference will shed the light on advanced techniques with the greatest potential to revolutionize the field. \n\n\n\nFormat \n\n\n\nThis conference will create an online space across different time zones and gather voices around the world to discuss the latest developments in EWEA. It will offer hands-on experience in working with advanced data-driven methodologies and improve capacity to implement data-driven action for preventive\, early action for peace and security of key civil society organizations\, multilateral organizations\, and governments. More specifically\, the event will provide a combination of expert panel discussions\, workshops\, online pitches\, and one-on-one conversations with data scientists to help you discover “the art of possible of data science“. \n\n\n\nParticipation at the workshop is free of charge. \n\n\n\n\nJOIN THE CONFERENCE

SUMMARY:Route 2030: hoe kunnen we versnellen om de SDG's te behalen?
DESCRIPTION:Graag nodigen Building Change\, Global Compact Network Nederland\, MVO Nederland\, Partos en SDG Nederland in samenwerking met de Rijksoverheid je uit voor de bijeenkomst ‘Route 2030: Hoe kunnen we versnellen om de SDG’s te behalen?’ op woensdagochtend 19 mei. Tijdens deze bijeenkomst worden in het kader van Verantwoordingsdag twee rapportages gepresenteerd: De ‘Monitor Brede Welvaart en Sustainable Development Goals 2021’ van het CBS en de vijfde Nederlandse SDG rapportage ‘Nederland Ontwikkelt Duurzaam’ van de Rijksoverheid. \n\n\n\nDe lancering van deze rapportages vormt een mooie aanleiding om te bespreken hoe het ervoor staat met de uitvoering van de SDG’s in en door Nederland. En nog belangrijker: hoe we met elkaar en met de overheid kunnen versnellen om de doelen in 2030 te behalen.  \n\n\n\nNa de presentaties van de twee rapportages vindt een dialoog plaats tussen vertegenwoordigers uit het bedrijfsleven\, van NGO’s\, financiële sector\, jongerenorganisaties én Tweede Kamerleden over thema’s waar we in Nederland extra stappen gaan zetten met de verschillende sectoren\, te weten: welke extra stappen gaan de verschillende sectoren met elkaar zetten om de SDG’s te behalen en wat moet de overheid doen om dit proces te versnellen?  \n\n\n\nDoel van de bijeenkomst is om inzicht krijgen in de doelen waar we op achterlopen (mede gezien COVID-19) en wat er nodig is om te versnellen. Op basis daarvan raadplegen over wat er in de SDG Routekaart naar voren moet komen en hoe we kunnen komen tot een betekenisvolle vertaling van de mondiale doelen voor de Nederlandse context. \n\n\n\nHet publiek bestaat uit ongeveer 1000 vertegenwoordigers van bedrijven\, de financiële sector\, NGO’s\, kennisinstellingen\, gemeenten en jongerenorganisaties. Ook leden van de pers zijn uitgenodigd. \n\n\n\nModerator: Harm Edens \n\n\n\nBevestigde sprekers:\n\n\n\nPresentatie van rapportages ‘Monitor Brede Welvaart en de SDG’s’ en ‘Nederland Ontwikkelt Duurzaam’ \n\n\n\nProf. dr.

SUMMARY:Fragile States Index 2021 Launch
DESCRIPTION:About this event\n\n\n\nPerhaps the clearest lesson of 2020 was that fragilities can affect any country in the world. What started as a health crisis quickly cascaded across all the FSI indicators with overlapping and compounding challenges such as recessions\, protests\, and in some cases\, violence. However\, this year also presents a unique opportunity to explore what resilience looks like in different contexts\, and the role played by the development community\, civil society\, the private sector\, and government institutions to manage shocks and pressures. \n\n\n\nThe Fund for Peace\, in partnership with the peacebuilding INGO International Alert This link opens in a new tab\, will be holding a global virtual event on Thursday\, May 20\, that will bring together leading experts to discuss how societies can emerge from the COVID-19 crisis stronger and more resilient. Opening remarks will be given by Senator Chris Coons and Congressman Michael McCaul\, both of whom have been leaders in the drafting and passage of the landmark Global Fragility Act\, which could majorly impact the future of U.S. foreign policy. \n\n\n\nThis will be followed by a panel discussion moderated by Alliance For Peacebuilding This link opens in a new tab’s Acting President and CEO\, Elizabeth (Liz) Hume. \n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers:\n\n\n\nSenator Chris Coons\, Member of US Senate Committee on Foreign RelationsCongressman Michael McCaul\, Ranking Member of the House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs\n\n\n\nPanel:\n\n\n\nCindy Chungong\, Africa Regional Director\, International AlertNealin Parker\, Co-Director\, Bridging Divides Initiative\, Princeton UniversityNatalie Fiertz\, Programs Manager\, Fund for PeaceSenior Representative\, African Development Bank \n\n\n\nThe 2021 Fragile States Index is the 17th annual iteration of a data-driven policy tool that stands as a leading measure of political\, social\, and economic pressures across 179 countries.  \n\n\n\nFor over 60 years\, The Fund for Peace(FFP) has been a world leader in developing practical tools and approaches for reducing conflict. With a clear focus on the nexus of human security and economic development\, FFP contributes to more peaceful and prosperous societies by engineering smarter methodologies and smarter partnerships.

SUMMARY:Countering Hate Speech Online Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the past year\, communicating online has been more popular (and necessary) than ever before. While there are clearly many benefits to online communication\, online hate speech poses an increasing threat. Hate speech can take on many different forms and is often not easily detected\, and rarely efficiently countered. Most commonly\, hateful comments and posts are reported\, which can solve the problem in the short term but not sustainably.  \n\n\n\nThis year’s World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development\, we want to contribute to raising awareness about the importance of safe online environments and the threat that hate speech poses to dialogue and development.  \n\n\n\nIn collaboration with our partners Youth for Peace (BiH) and the ALTer Hate Campaign (BiH) we are organising an interactive workshop on May 21. Aiming to raise awareness about online hate speech\, it will also equip participants with practical tools to counter online hate speech and help to create more peaceful and safe online environments. \n\n\n\nRegister for the free workshop below to receive the Zoom link. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER
