Social Inclusion

Join Us Next Week in Geneva !

Library Talk The Politics of Social Inclusion From Knowledge to Action Friday 15 November 2019 from 12:30 to 2 p.m. Library Events Room (B.135). Palais des Nations, Building B, 1st Floor. The idea of social inclusion is the bedrock of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its promise to leave no one behind. How have slum dwellers in Kampala made their voices heard in the planning and upgrading of their environment? How do social workers support the most vulnerable people in the cities of Beijing and Chongqing, where there are strong state controls on individual behavior? What government policies are being put in place in India to counter gender, caste and faith-based discrimination, and are these interventions succeeding? We have invited experts to unpack the concept of social inclusion in the United Nations and in academic discourse. Combining examples drawn from a range of countries with critical reflections on the politics and rhetoric of social inclusion, the speakers will share insights into why combating exclusion and fostering inclusion—realizing promise of leaving no one behind—is such an enormous analytical and policy puzzle, and what actions need to be taken to begin to solve it. A discussion with Fadia Kiwan Director-General, Arab women Organization; Chair, Scientific Advisory Committee of MOST, UNESCO; Professor of Political Science, Saint Joseph University, Beirut. Gabriele Köhler Development economist; Former UN Offcial, UNRISD Senior Research Associate Juan Telleria Assistant Professor, Department of Philosophy, University of the Basque Country; Researcher, HEGOA Institute for Cooperation and Development Studies Moderated by Katja Hujo, Senior Research Coordinator at UNRISD Register

This article by IMF researchers is worth reading in the context of Social Credit, I think. I found section on the history of money to be quite interesting.
