SUMMARY:Humanitarian Blockchain Summit
DESCRIPTION:The Humanitarian Blockchain Summit will bring together technology experts\, scholars\, and humanitarian practitioners for dynamic discussions about the future of blockchain technology in humanitarian operations and in pursuit of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. \nBlockchain technology holds great potential for improving these operations—whether it’s used to transfer cash to disaster victims\, coordinate the delivery of supplies\, streamline humanitarian financing\, or make humanitarian projects more gender-inclusive. \nThe summit is designed for those interested in using blockchain for tangible humanitarian impact. Breakout sessions will focus on overcoming challenges to using blockchain\, as well as identifying the best ways to develop humanitarian-friendly blockchain platforms\, among other topics. The sessions will also include collaborative exercises and presentations about how some organizations use blockchain. \nOBJECTIVES\nThe goal of the event is for participants to recommend policies for using blockchain in specific humanitarian interventions through \n\nSharing lessons learned and experiences emerging from the early days of implementation of blockchain initiatives for humanitarian action;\nIncreasing awareness about the variety of platforms and protocols currently being implemented\, and their unique specificities;\nExploring the ethical adoption of humanitarian blockchain solutions in response to technical\, legal\, and governance challenges facing the humanitarian sector;\nBringing together experts from across sectors to foster new partnerships\, encourage technical collaboration\, and explore non-traditional funding sources;\nCurating existing open-source tools used in humanitarian blockchain services; and\nBuilding a digital community of developers interested in impacting humanitarian action.\n\nCORE PARTNERS \n\nInstitute of International Humanitarian Affairs\nIBM\nFordham University\nNorwegian Refugee Council\nUNOPS\nCenter for International Humanitarian Cooperation\n\nA comprehensive agenda will be available soon.

SUMMARY:Punch Card Conference: “Value Over the Long Term”
DESCRIPTION:Are YOU ready to punch in?\nJoin us at this conference in New York City to support the project and its mission. \nOur goal at Project Punch Card is to foster long-term investment orientation among students underrepresented in the investment research and management business. \nPunch Card Conference:\n“Value Over the Long-Term”\nThe Project Punch Card Conference is the inaugural event for Project Punch Card\, a non-profit focused on long-term investment orientation. The conference will be all about the long term. You’ll hear from thought leaders in the value investing community about what it means to be long term-oriented. \nWhat is long-term value investing?\nHow is it different from other investing?\nDoes it provide an edge?\nWhy should one choose long-term orientation?\nHow can students think long-term especially while investing?\nHow should investors handle large drawdowns? When is the stock price decline due to a long-term reduction in the business’s value and when is it temporary?\nGreatest Hits Stories: Certain companies that were excellent long-term (20 years+) had several pitfalls and terrible stock return periods.\nIn the Best Ideas Presentations\, you will hear from the successful investors on their current investment ideas. \nWho is it for? \nWe expect a blend of portfolio managers\, investment advisors\, analysts\, and allocators (i.e pension funds\, endowments\, insurance\, FOF\, etc). Ideally\, we would like people from the target communities—women\, people of color\, or graduates of underprivileged colleges in the investment industry. Marketing and strategic partners such as CAIA Association may also be a material component of the audience composition. \nWhat is included? \nBreakfast\, full sit-down lunch\, coffee breaks\, and networking opportunities.

SUMMARY:A Consistent Ethic of Life 2.0: Cardinal Bernardin’s “Seamless Garment” at 35
DESCRIPTION:In December 1983\, at Fordham University\, Cardinal Joseph Bernardin of Chicago delivered a landmark lecture outlining what he called a “consistent ethic of life”—using the Catholic tradition to articulate a defense of life at every stage\, and in a way that could cross religious and political boundaries. \nPope Francis has given new life to the consistent ethic\, and this symposium will examine how the “seamless garment” looks in 2018\, and how it resonates with other faith traditions. Bishop Emeritus Gerald Kicanas\, who worked with Bernardin\, will deliver a keynote address to be followed by three respondents: Katelyn Beaty\, an evangelical author and speaker; Rabbi Jill Jacobs\, executive director of T’ruah; and Herb Geraghty\, an atheist who works for Rehumanize International. \nAdmission to this event is free. Please RSVP to crcevent@fordham.edu.
