SUMMARY:Beyond Bean Counting: Measuring Peace for SDG 16
DESCRIPTION:SDG 16 Peace\, Justice\, and Strong Institutions seeks to promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development\, provide access to justice for all\, and build effective\, accountable\, and inclusive institutions at all levels. Although metrics like the cost of corruption\, number of registered births\, number of homicides\, and number of refugees provide a baseline to measure progress toward this goal\, do these indicators truly measure peace? \nThe Carter School Peace Engineering Lab will host a conversation about innovative approaches to measuring peace that move beyond simple quantitative measurements and achieve a richer understanding of the context of peace. Peace Engineering Fellow Keil Eggers will share how SenseMaker\, a complexity-informed approach to participatory narrative inquiry\, can provide real-time maps of conflict systems and develop a ‘vector theory of change.’ Aniek van Kersen will discuss efforts to establish a quantitative “Peace Data Standard” to monitor contributions to positive peace and ultimately spur more investment in ESG (good Environmental\, Social\, and Governance) compliant companies. Each presenter will share for 10-15 minutes before Q&A. \nPresenters/Organizers: \nKeil Eggers\, Peace Engineering Fellow & PhD Student\, George Mason University Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution\nAniek van Kersen \nJOIN THE DISCUSSION HERE: \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://gmu.zoom.us/j/99428434559?from=addon \nMeeting ID: 994 2843 4559\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,99428434559# US (Washington DC)\n+12678310333\,\,99428434559# US (Philadelphia) \nDial by your location\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 267 831 0333 US (Philadelphia)\nMeeting ID: 994 2843 4559\nFind your local number: https://gmu.zoom.us/u/a1yscz2Yt \nJoin by SIP\n99428434559@zoomcrc.com \nJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 994 2843 4559

SUMMARY:SDG 4 Quality Education: Higher Education International Partnerships
DESCRIPTION:Education enables upward socioeconomic mobility and is a key to not only escape poverty but also to bring about tangible change in communities. Over the past decade\, major progress was made towards improving access to education at all levels globally. Increasingly higher education is playing a critical role in impacting society and providing important insight into sustainable development. The global COVID-19 pandemic has far-reaching consequences that may jeopardize hard won gains made in improving global education. In spite of this\, the sharing of educational resources by numerous higher education institutions during the early days of COVID-19 pandemic is an important example of the power of collaboration and networking. The role of partnerships and networks – both locally in our communities and internationally across multiple countries- cannot be overemphasized and with the COVID pandemic\, this has become clearer. \nIn this 7th webinar of a series on issues related to the Sustainable Development Goals at the University of Minnesota\, a panel of scholars and practitioners will discuss how university partnerships and networks are advancing impactful work in communities and countries around the world. Looking at a variety of network models in several fields\, panelists will offer examples and insights on where progress is being made and where more work is needed. Comments and discussion will focus on these SDG’s targets. \nPanelists:\nTom Fisher\, Professor\, Director of the Minnesota Design Center\, Director of MSSD and Dayton Hudson Chair in Urban Design\, University of Minnesota \nIrene Naigaga PhD – Regional Program Manager & Board Secretary – Africa One Health University Network (AFROHUN) \nKees Kouwenaar – Secretary General – European Universities Alliance – Aurora Universities Network \nModerators:\nKaren Brown\, PhD\, Co-Lead UMN Sustainable Development Goals Initiative\, University of Minnesota \nKatey Pelican\, DVM\, PhD\, Co-Lead UMN Sustainable Development Goals Initiative\, University of Minnesota \nThis webinar is hosted by the University of Minnesota SDG Initiative (Global Programs and Strategy Alliance) in partnership with the Office for Public Engagement. \nTO JOIN THE EVENT: https://umn.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_6WlDWinBTJOjC1bSEYNHRg
