Webinar Series
Metrics for Policies for Well-being and Sustainable Development in Latin America and the Caribbean Webinar series Measuring people’s perceptions, evaluations and experiences: key issues and best practice from Latin America and the world There is now an increasing consensus that broader measures of societal progress should take into account how people feel about and experience their own lives, alongside information about their objective conditions. The issues that can be potentially included under this heading are broad, ranging from subjective well-being, to trust, political voice, satisfaction with services, and discrimination; measures of these phenomena may include both experiences of specific events (e.g. domestic violence, discrimination in the workplace) and personal evaluations of respondents’ own conditions or of the general state of their economy and society. What all these phenomena have in common is that they refer to features that either only individuals themselves can report about (i.e. they are not directly observable by third parties in large samples of the population) or that, while potentially measurable through objectives measures (e.g. income poverty), may be experienced differently by individuals in those specific conditions. Since the Stiglitz-Sen-Fitoussi Report recommended in 2009 that national statistical offices make efforts to collect more subjective data through their official surveys, there has been a significant increase in both the number of countries that have included such measures in their official surveys and in academic research on these measures. However, in Latin America, the uptake of these measures has been less widespread, with only a handful of countries including relevant questions in their surveys. -

1 Dear Maine and Massachusetts Decision Makers, We Urge You to Deny Central Maine Power's (CMP's) Applications for Its New E
Dear Maine and Massachusetts Decision Makers, We urge you to deny Central Maine Power’s (CMP’s) applications for its New England Clean Energy Connect (NECEC) project because this proposed transmission line would be bad for the people of Maine and Massachusetts and our economy and environment. CMP’s proposal is designed to provide big benefits to CMP shareholders and Hydro-Québec at the expense of New England. This harmful proposal would: Cut a brand new, 53-mile-long corridor across Maine’s western mountains, harming forests, streams, wetlands, wildlife, and scenic beauty; Suppress the development of clean renewable energy (like wind and solar) in Maine, which would provide greater economic and environmental benefits; and Fail to reduce climate change emissions, and could even increase them. Please reject CMP’s NECEC proposal. Its costs to our people and environment are too great. Maine and Massachusetts deserve better.

Inaugurating the Institute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA Luskin February 4–5, 2016
Ferguson by Eden McNutt Inaugurating the Institute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA Luskin February 4–5, 2016 Cities manifest the inequalities of our times. From the dispossessions wrought by neoliberal policy and global finance to the divides maintained by long histories of redlining and racial quarantine, the color-lines of the 20th century endure and evolve. But it is in unequal cities that a powerful story is unfolding: that of worldwide struggles to resist evictions and foreclosures and to craft a politics of spatial justice in the face of repeated banishment. Connecting the South Side of Chicago with the Cape Flats of South Africa, linking ghetto and favela, scaling from local communities to the courtroom to the United Nations, thinking across the global South and global Los Angeles, these poor people’s movements claim and enact democratic rights. Inspired by such action, we inaugurate the Institute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA Luskin by convening research and critical thought to confront urban color-lines. In doing so, we also seek to transform the global university, its canons of knowledge and its engagement with the lives and histories of subordinated peoples.
