Planned CTrides marketing and outreach campaigns include: College Month, Kick Off Your Commute, Telework Week, a Winter Campaign, Business Forum, Earth Week, & CTrides Week Using this holistic view of the planned marketing efforts, CTrides then generated a calendar for each individual campaign with specific deliverables and touchpoints that centered around “due dates” for listed tasks. This included everything from concept development, to production and final delivery. This breakdown allowed CTrides to flush out every campaign and be able to transition fluidly from one to the next without missing any crucial dates or deadlines. As the quarter progressed, the focus shifted toward planning a media buy from Fall 2016 through Spring/Summer 2017. Included in this year’s media plan for CTrides is similar elements to what’s been featured in the past, but also some new mediums to continue to diversify the media in order to reach the target viewer in the most effective way possible.

    LGBTQIAP+ ETIQUETTE GUIDE and GLOSSARY OF TERMS Co-authored by Luca Pax, Queer Asterisk and The Vibrant Staff (2016, 2017). www.queerasterisk.com www.bevibrant.com Sex, gender, and sexuality can be complicated subjects, and are deeply personal. Sex is comprised of our primary and secondary sex characteristics, anatomy, and chromosomes, and is separate from gender identity or expression. Gender identity can be described as an innermost understanding of self, and gender expression is how we embody or communicate who we are to the world. Sexual orientation is who we choose to be close with, and how. Sex does not always inform gender, and gender does not always inform sexuality. None of these categories exists solely on a continuum of male to female, or masculine to feminine, and people have non-binary genders and sexualities, as well as intersex, agender, and asexual identities. People with sex, gender, or sexuality identities that dominant society regards as “normative,” i.e. male or female, cisgender, or heterosexual, may have not actively thought much about how they define or claim their identities, because they have not had to. Many people whose identities are marginalized by society experience erasure and invisibility because they are seen as non- normative. This glossary of terms related to sex, gender, and sexuality is neither exhaustive nor absolute. Language and concepts of identity are constantly evolving, and often differ amongst intersections of race, class, age, etc. Many of these terms, as well as the communities that use them are White-centered. Everyone has a right to self-define their identities and have access to validating terminology that others will use to respect who they are.

    Medical Ethics in Peacetime and Wartime: the Case for a Better Understanding

    International Review of the Red Cross (2013), 95 (889), 189–213. Violence against health care doi:10.1017/S1816383113000775 Medical ethics in peacetime and wartime: the case for a better understanding Vivienne Nathanson Vivienne Nathanson qualified in medicine at the University of London in 1978. She is Director of Professional Activities at the British Medical Association, and is responsible for public health, human rights, medical ethics, international affairs, medical education, and many other areas. She writes and lectures extensively on ethics, human rights, and public health, contributing chapters to books and e-learning resources on the same areas. She is currently an honorary Professor in the School for Health at the University of Durham. She was recently called as an expert witness to the public enquiry into the death in UK custody of Baha Mousa, and to the public enquiry into the use of contaminated blood products in Scotland (the Penrose Enquiry). Abstract Health-care workers face ethical dilemmas in their decision-making in every clinical intervention they make. In times of armed conflict the decisions may be different, and the circumstances can combine to raise ethical tensions. This article looks at the tensions in peacetime and in times of armed conflict and examines the types of cases that doctors and other health-care workers will face. It also discusses the common ethical decision-making framework and the role of communication within both clinical care and ethical analysis. © icrc 2014 189 V. Nathanson Keywords: ethical dilemma, ethical analysis, decision making, consent, confidentiality, communication, trust. Health-care workers worldwide follow the same ethical codes and principles, developed to protect patients from abuse and to make clear the limits that those professionals will apply to their decision-making.
