CCC’S CHAIR 01 LETTER The organizational transitions we went through in 2020 enable the CCC to enter our second decade of ex- istence with a broader and stronger financial base, expanded core staff, reinforced and expanded networks and institutional alliances, a new online dissemination platform, and a communications firm. All of these enhance our capabilities, and I am confident, will lead to many more achievements. This growth and strengthening of the CCC reflects primarily, the dedication and amazing work that the CCC’s Staff, Board and Councilors have done this past year. I am very fortunate to be working with this INTRODUCTION great group of people. Their dedication to our mission goes far beyond the call of duty! I would like to give special thanks to our Partners, specially to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Govern- ment of Chile, for their continued support and assistance to our work. Some of the key successes of 2020 are: • A Packard Organizational Effectiveness Program effort that improved our governance, our opera- tions, and clarified key aspects of the organization, fostering constant renewal and effective structures to guide it. • Shifted from a 33 to a 9-person Board of Directors; resulting in more effective and adaptable gov- ernance. The rest of the Councilors remained as such in structural terms and continued with their constant contribution to the mission of the Council; being the backbone of the CCC. • Hired an Analyst/Fund Raiser and a Designer; adding aesthetic and content quality to our out- reach materials, and a strategic and organized pursuit of funding. 5 • Created of a Financial Sustainability Committee, who collaborated in defining the size of institu- 6 tion we want to be and in directing a plan to finance it. • Created a new, more vibrant and engaging website and web presence. The website will enable us to disseminate more effectively our own and other’s products; as well as achieve greater interaction and RAFAEL FRIEDMANN involvement of users. • Hired a communications agency; giving the CCC a wider and effective media presence. • Hosted a multitude of online webinars, presentations, and dissemination notes that kept the CCC relevant and led to an amazing variety of knowledge exchanges across many fields. • Continued support to the CCCx and their Public Trust Doctrine work that will result in significant improvement in the management of public lands and their protection. • Agreement with Chile’s Ministry of Energy for Energy Transition working group meetings. • Ongoing work to enhance conservation efforts, particularly in the Coastal areas. • The exploration of new alliances to broaden our presence and capabilities. • Expanded with new funding sources our budget to carry out even more amazing work! I am amazed and thankful for all we have been achieving, on a tiny budget, limited Staff, and a volunteer THE CCC POISED FOR MORE SUCCESS AS IT ENTERS ITS Board and Councilors. Please join us to more successes in 2021 and beyond! SECOND DECADE WHAT AN AMAZING YEAR 2020 HAS BEEN! THE CHILE- CALIFORNIA COUNCIL BECAME A STRONGER, MORE AGILE, AND EVEN MORE EFFECTIVE CATALYST FOR KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGES BETWEEN THESE TWO TRANSHEMISPHERIC TWINS. A YEAR OF KEY ORGANIZATIONAL TRANSITIONS WHILE STILL DELIVERING ON OUR MISSION. Rafael Friedmann Chairman UNDERSECRETARY OF THE 01 MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF THE GOVERNMENT OF CHILE LETTER CAROL INA V INTRODUCTION A L D IV I A Dear Councilors, Colleagues and friends, On behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Chile, I would like to express our appreciation to the Chile California Council. The Council has been a dynamic platform, from which we have been able to build bridges between Chile and California, strengthening and broadening our scope of cooperation with the State of California. 7 The Ministry acknowledges the collaboration achieved with the Californian Government as a concrete example of the effectiveness of international cooperation within the framework of the Memorandum of Understanding signed in 2008 and renewed in 2013. Chile and California share similar geographical features as territories exposed to natural hazards. In addition, both face with particular acuteness the existential threat posed by climate change. In such a perspective, international cooperation plays a key role in building national capacities to identify the risks and challenges, educate the population and manage emergencies. We are building together a path towards resilience. Chile’s unique conditions transform it into a natural laboratory for the development of research and innovation, which may provide tools for other countries and territories to achieve resilience and to cope with these challenges. Accordingly, the Chilean Institute for Disaster Resilience (Itrend) and ONEMI’s Academy of Civil Protection have been working in increasing our capacities in the field of resilience while the 2020-2021 Forest Fire Prevention

Comparative and International Education Faculty (CIED), College of Education John Holst Associate Professor of Education, College of Education Mark Brennan Professor and UNESCO Chair in Community, Leadership, and Youth Development Director of Graduate Studies, Agricultural and Extension Education and Applied Youth, Family, and Community Education iii ABSTRACT The 21st century faces sociodemographic, educational, and economic challenges associated with the global increase in older adult populations and a decrease in the number of children. National and international organizations have called for spaces for all ages, with more age-inclusive policies and support services. Here, the concept of intergenerational (IG) solidarity is seen as a crucial element in the development and wellbeing of all generations (Stuckelberger & Vikat, 2007; WHO, 2007). Chile is not exempt from this call for paying increased attention to the needs of the young and the old. During the last few decades, public policies and programs have been developed to protect and provide opportunities for both older adults and children to increase their social participation and interaction, and to empower them in the exercise of their rights.

Though ambitious, the reform failed to meet the stated objective of depoliticizing environmental decision-making. Instead, the reforms strengthened the authority of the central state, justified on the premise that decisions would now be based on ‘technical criteria’, meaning rules rather than politics. Comparing the creation (1990–1994) and reform (2009–2010) of Chile’s environmental institutions, it is demonstrated that a defining feature of Chilean political culture involves treating rules as if these were independent of the state. Chilean lawmakers use rules as science is used elsewhere: as an ‘objective’ voice separate from politics, that helps legitimate decisions.

Article IV Section 3 United States Constitution states: New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new States shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.

New California Declaration of Independence of January 15, 2018 states: “Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government. When a long train of abuses and acts to seize and hold the people’s power without legal authority and pursuing invariably the same Object that clearly demonstrates a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

    Michelle Bachelet Jeria (Verónica MichelleBachelet Jeria) Chile, Presidenta de la República (2º ejercicio) Duración del mandato: 11 de Marzo de 2014 - En funciones Nacimiento: Santiago, Región Metropolitana, 29 de Septiembre de 1951 Partido político: PS Profesión : Médico pediatra ResumenEn las elecciones chilenas de 2005-2006 la Concertación, la coalición de cuatro formaciones de centro-izquierda que gobernaba el país sudamericano desde la restauración democrática de 1990, ganó su cuarto ejercicio consecutivo en el poder con la médica pediatra Michelle Bachelet. Ocho años después, en las presidenciales del 17 de noviembre y el 15 de diciembre de 2013, la aclamada estadista ha conquistado su segundo mandato cuatrienal en La Moneda, que iniciará el 11 de marzo de 2014, al imponerse en doble vuelta a su adversaria de la Alianza oficialista de la derecha, Evelyn Matthei.Cuando su primer envite presidencial, esta miembro del Partido Socialista, hija de un general liberal muerto a manos de sus propios compañeros de armas tras el golpe de 1973 y ella misma víctima carcelaria de la dictadura pinochetista, ofrecía a los electores un perfil profesional de doble experta en atención sanitaria y cuestiones militares que la había cualificado para servir como ministra de Salud y de Defensa en el Gobierno de presidente Ricardo Lagos, al que sucedió en marzo de 2006.Los cuatro años de mandato de la primera mujer presidenta de Chile discurrieron por unos cauces de estabilidad macroeconómica, sólo perturbada por el estallido de la crisis global, y reformismo social marcado por una serie de conflictos en la calle, los cuales, sin embargo, no malograron su elevada popularidad.

  • Unit 1: Where Did Our Local Governments Come From?
    UNIT 1: WHERE DID OUR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS COME FROM? “These Americans are the most peculiar people in the world. In a local community in their country, a citizen may conceive of some need which is not being met. What does he do? He goes across the street and discusses it with a neighbor. Then what happens? A committee begins functioning on behalf of that need. All of this is done by private citizens on their own initiative. The health of a democratic society may be measured by the quality of function performed by private citizens.” NEW WORDS hese are the words of Alexis de Tocqueville, a Frenchman who toured and wrote about the new country of United States of America during the T The following are new words 1830s. His writings about America have endured because of his outsider’s students will read in this text: insight into our unique society. While times have changed, we still take pride in the important role of the individual in our process of government. Agenda Amendment At the beginning of the 20th century, 70 percent of the American population lived in rural areas, and most people lived their lives with little involvement Ballot with government. Today, over 80 percent of the population is cloistered in Budget cites. As American settlements grew, common solutions were sought for City common problems.

CHAD MAYES Minority Floor Leader Republican Leader DANIEL ALVAREZ E. DOTSON WILSON Secretary of the Senate Chief Clerk of the Assembly THE STATE FLAG The Bear Flag was designated California’s State Flag by legislative enactment in 1911. It is patterned after the historic flag flown at Sonoma on June 14, 1846, by a group of American settlers in revolt against Mexican rule in California. This short-lived revolution ended on July 9, 1846. The general design and details of the Bear Flag are set forth in Section 420 of the Government Code. FOREWORD The California Legislature is privileged to present this compilation of historic documents. Taken together, these compacts, treaties, and charters embody the ongoing evolution of our core principles of representative democracy. It is important to note that our state Constitution is a living document. It has been amended over 500 times since its adoption in 1879. Some recent amendments have included a change to California’s Term Limits law through the passage of Proposition 28 (2012), the California Legislature Transparency Act enacted by Proposition 54 (2016) enhances public access to the legislative process, and with the adoption of Proposition 25 (2010), the vote threshold to pass the state budget is now a majority vote.
