#Digitalisation can save us some environmental burdens - such as part of mobility - but it also creates new ones - such as (delivery) mobility again. On 26 November, acatech – Deutsche Akademie der Technikwissenschaften - will be discussing the CO2 footprint of digitalisation, which will be an exciting discussion - register now. #digitalisation, #technologyassessment, #digital, #research

“Never judge a book by it's cover” Most people are probably familiar with this quote, but it is often much more difficult to put it into practice. Because we all have experiences and prejudices that sometimes lead us to make hasty judgments. The scenario from Kenan Aggül post for example: Do we confuse directness with unfriendliness? What our philosophy at #Nexwave is: Approach everyone with an open mind, or at least try to. This approach creates the most beautiful constellations in our team. #Openness #Nojudging #Stayopen #Recruting

Flying slower for the climate: BILD quotes our institute's director Dr. Björn Nagel who was interviewed as an expert for the freshly published Deutscher Bundestag's report on Technology Assessment (https://lnkd.in/etBcWk56). 80 is the percentage by which aviation's climate impact could be reduced, for instance by flying slower and/or lower. As the research of the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft-und Raumfahrt e.V. shows, the solution for reducing aviations climate impact drastically and fast cannot be found in single innovative technologies, or energy carriers, but instead, there are many puzzle pieces that need to be put together in the best possible way. More concretely this means, that we are looking at technologies, how to integrate them into future aircraft, at energy carriers, but also at operation, including different trajectories, flight networks, aircraft manufacturing, life-cycle, etc. The list is long. Big projects like EXACT offer relevant and comprehensive research findings and it is a sporty endeavour by many of us and our partners. The ultimate goal: drastically reducing aviation's climate impact fast, while being economical. So our globalised community can stay mobile in the future, too. That's why impact, technological and lifecycle assessment are crucial. So decision-makers in both, politics and the industry can take decisions based on data. It is good to have a clear idea, which consequences a certain measure will most likely have. This is exactly what our digital framework ALICIA is about. A framework with which we already support the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz and Bundesministerium für Digitales und Verkehr in the „Arbeitskreis klimaneutrale Luftfahrt“. The results and our ALICIA dashboard can be checked out at the ILA Berlin - Pioneering Aerospace (https://lnkd.in/e6ZWiFMW)!

At a time when international cooperation is more important than ever, the #GIZwirkt series shows the success of our projects - both in the partner countries and in Germany's interests. 🇩🇪✨ Whether nursing, IT or skilled trades - GIZ brings urgently needed skilled workers from abroad to Germany. In doing so, it ensures that the countries of origin are strengthened and no disadvantages arise from emigration. Thanks to GIZ's support, around 6,500 foreign skilled workers and trainees have been placed in Germany since 2013 - an effective solution to the growing shortage of skilled workers. 🇩🇪🤝🌍 More insights at: https://lnkd.in/diiNZKFY #SkilledWorkers #DevelopmentCooperation

You can now register for the Aktion Deutschland Hilft e.V. course "Introductory Workshop on Racism and Postcolonial Power Structures" via our website. ❗ Please note that the course will be in #German. Addressing the #power system of racism and its entanglements with other phenomena such as sexism, homophobia and transhostility, ableism, etc. is essential in order to shape #equal coexistence in society and reduce power #inequalities globally and locally. Development cooperation and humanitarian aid in particular are based on colonial power relations. In this workshop unit, #racism will first be defined and its mechanisms of action identified. In which structures does racism operate in the German context and globally? To do this, we will look at historical backgrounds and analyse post-colonial power systems. Where do we find these power inequalities in the working context of international #humanitarian aid and development policy? How and where is colonial continuity evident? Finally, #postcolonial and racist patterns of thought and narratives in our own work will be examined. Racism in images, in one's own language and in communication and #cooperation with partners in the Global South will be analysed in a practical way in order to find strategies for action and approaches for change. The course is targeting staff members of humanitarian organisations who are active in #project work as well as communication and #media work. You will learn reflecting on how postcolonial and #racist thought patterns are structurally anchored in the field of humanitarian #aid and in your own areas of work, questioning and examining how the findings are transferred to your own work context. Further more you will develop initial ideas for action #strategies and approaches to change in your own work context. The course is planned as 2-day training in person in German, taking place on 9 and 10 September 2024 in Bochum at the Akademie der Ruhr-Universität gGmbH and includes regular breaks. Sign up for a fee of 475€ on our aha course #website: https://lnkd.in/ecu93zaC

🚨 Urgent Call for a Unified European Transport Network! 🚨 Isabelle Ryckbost, Secretary General of ESPO, expresses deep concern over proposed changes to the EU budget framework that could decentralize funding and weaken the European transport perspective. With member states gaining more control over how they allocate EU funds, there’s a risk that critical infrastructure projects, like port improvements, may be overlooked in favour of national interests. The TEN-T Regulation sets important standards, but if only major cross-border projects receive direct EU funding, we might regress to fragmented regional policies from the 1980s.

Join us tomorrow afternoon/Thursday 16 October, 16:00-17:00 (CET), online for our next monthly seminar! This week we welcome Lennart Maschmeyer for a talk on his new book Subversion: From Covert Operations to Cyber Conflict: https://lnkd.in/e49ArzBx In Subversion, Lennart Maschmeyer provides a powerful new theory and analysis of an age-old concept. While a strategy of subversion offers great strategic promise in theory, it faces an underappreciated set of challenges that limit its strategic value in practice. Drawing from two major cases—the KGB's use of traditional subversion methods to crush the Prague Spring in 1968 and Russia's less successful use of cyberwarfare against Ukraine since 2014—Maschmeyer demonstrates both the benefits and weaknesses of the approach. While many believe that today's cyber-based subversion campaigns offer new strategic opportunities, they also come with their own challenges. Because of these disadvantages, cyber operations continue to fall short of expectations—most recently in the Russo-Ukrainian war. By showing that traditional subversion methods remain the more potent threat, Subversion forces us to reconsider our fears of the subversive potential of cyberwar.

What do employees want from their workplace now and in the future? In recent years, the focus has been on achieving a better work-life balance, shorter work weeks, and the flexibility to work remotely when necessary. Some of these benefits were particularly in demand during the “Great Resignation” period. Today, however, the employment landscape has evolved, and companies must invest in attractive compensation to retain their employees for the long term and fill vacant positions. Yet, compensation is more than just an appealing paycheck at the end of the month. 📖 In our latest article, we highlight five compensation trends that can help attract and retain tech talent: https://hubs.li/Q02t19xv0... What compensation strategies have you found effective for keeping your tech team happy? #WorkGenius #TechTalent #CompensationTrends #EmployeeSatisfaction
