  • Assessing the Social Investment Strategy
    International conference Call for papers Assessing the social investment strategy Lausanne, 10 and 11 April 2014 Over the last few years, the notion of social investment has gained prominence in debates on social policy and welfare reform. This perspective has informed many recent debates and reforms in several European countries, and is actively supported by international organisations such as the OECD. Recently, it has received a renewed impetus with the adoption of a “Social investment package” by the European Commission. One key specificity of “investment” oriented social policies is the fact that they are based on a life course perspective on social problems. Unlike traditional policies, which are based on interventions “here and now”, social investment policies focus on the roots of social problems emphasising prevention rather than cure, prepare rather than repair, hence the emphasis on support for children and investment in human capital. The social investment strategy has been endorsed by many social policy experts. However, in recent years, a few studies have also pointed to its limitations. For example, it has been shown that many of the interventions associated with social investment, such as childcare or training for instance, are benefitting individuals already in employment more than those out of employment. There is a suspicion that social investment policies are more useful for middle class individuals and families than for the poorest ones. In addition, it has also been argued that gender equality is often forgotten in the various social investment concrete proposals or implementation. Against this background, the conference aims to bring together scholars who have studied the various aspects of the social investment strategy and advance our collective understanding of the issues at stake.

    Press release February 2015 Artigas, Chapallaz, de Montmollin Bards of Enamels MUSÉE ARIANA, GENEVA, 4 FEBRUARY TO 31 MAY 2015 Inauguration Tuesday, February 3, 2015 10, avenue de la Paix 1202 Genève To download : www.ariana-geneve.ch Un musée Ville de Genève www.ariana-geneve.ch Artigas, Chapallaz,de Montmollin Bards of Enamels MUSÉE ARIANA, GENEVA, 4 FEBRUARY TO 31 MAY 2015 PRESS RELEASE Geneva, February 2015 Combining in a single exhibition works by the Catalan Josep Llorens Artigas (1892-1980), the Swiss ceramists Édouard Chapallaz (b.1921) and Brother Daniel de Montmollin (b.1921) – active within the Taizé religious community in Burgundy – is not purely random. These three artists, who have each in their own way left their mark on contemporary European ceramics, have continuously enhanced their understanding of enamels throughout their careers, knowledge that all three have been keen to pass on through their teaching, publications and more generally by their openness and their availability towards colleagues. Creating unique wheel-turned pieces, mostly with simple, pure lines, all three have endeavoured to sublimate these forms by clothing them, like a skin intimately fused to the clay, with enamels of infinite variety and depth. Bright or muted, matt or gloss, single or superimposed, fired in reduction or oxidation atmospheres, the enamels have an eloquence that is never, with these highly experienced masters, the result of chance. Fire certainly plays a major role and can sometimes have surprises in store, but it is mainly through knowledge, practice and experience – “a kiln without tests is a wasted kiln” said Artigas – the fruit of many years of hard work, that they have acquired over time a remarkable command of their art.

  • Schedule-Based Estimation of Pedestrian Demand Within a Railway Station
    Schedule-based estimation of pedestrian demand within a railway station Flurin Hänseler Nicholas Molyneaux Michel Bierlaire Amanda Stathopoulos Transport and Mobility Laboratory, EPFL May 2014 Schedule-based estimation of pedestrian demand within a railway station May 2014 Transport and Mobility Laboratory, EPFL Schedule-based estimation of pedestrian demand within a railway station Flurin Hänseler, Nicholas Molyneaux, Michel Bierlaire, Amanda Stathopoulos {flurin.haenseler,nicholas.molyneaux,michel.bierlaire,amanda.stathopoulos}@epfl.ch May 1, 2014 Abstract A framework is outlined for estimating pedestrian demand within a railway station which takes advantage of the train timetable and train frequentation data, as well as various direct or indirect indicators of demand. These may include e.g. link flow counts, measurements of density and travel times, or historical information. The problem is considered in discrete time and at the aggregate level, i.e., for groups of pedestrians associated with the same origin-destination pair and with the same departure time interval. The formulation of the framework allows for a wide applicability to various types of railway stations and input data. A preliminary case study analysis of Lausanne railway station provides an example of such an application. Cover photo: Michael Buholzer, c Reuters Keywords Demand estimation, pedestrian flows, schedule-based estimation, public transport i Schedule-based estimation of pedestrian demand within a railway station May 2014 1 Introduction The demand for mobility is increasing at a fast pace, and so is the volume of traffic in general. Taking the network of the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) as an example, the number of daily transported passengers has grown by approximately 50% in the last decade alone (Amacker, 2012).
