  • 2 Media Management in Theory and Practice 15 Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) Framework
    Media Management in 2 Theory and Practice Bozena I. Mierzejewska n the field of mass communication, the term theory is often loosely Idefined. Paradigms, conceptual frameworks, models, normative theories, and, of course, actual theories are all frequently referred to as “theory,” although they represent very different constructs. As traditionally defined in science, a theory is a systematically related set of statements about the causes or relationships underlying observable phenomena (Rudner, 1966). Theories are developed by abstracting from observation and are confirmed through repeated experiments designed to test hypotheses related to a theory. The result is often the development of law-like generalizations about underlying causes and relationships. The purpose of a theory is to increase scientific understanding through a systemized structure capable of both explaining and predicting phenomena (Hunt, 1991). Accepted theories become a part of our understanding and are the basis for further explorations of less understood areas. Being a statement of cause and effect, they help us predict with a certain degree of confidence future conse- quences of our current actions. Sound theories also help describe what is hap- pening and why; hence they are valuable tools for data interpretation. For all of their usefulness, theories do have limitations: First, they are focused and very specific, and therefore they cannot give full explanations of all factors involved. This very characteristic usually results in deterministic explanations. Second, they tend to be based on narrow, unrealistic assumptions. Theories aim to develop models used for predictions of future behavior and conse- quences, but they need to deal with complications of the unpredictability of individual humans and social groups.

  • The Transparency of Relief Organizations Responding to the 2010 Haiti Earthquake
    Report on The Transparency of Relief Organizations Responding to the 2010 Haiti Earthquake Citizen Oversight Requires Citizen Engagement 1 About Disaster Accountability Project (DAP) The Disaster Accountability Project (DAP) is a non-profit, nonpartisan organization committed to: • improving disaster management systems through policy research and advocacy; • promoting transparency and engaging citizens to become more involved in preparedness and relief; • and helping to ensure that people know what is happening on the ground during a disaster. What We Do Founded in 2007 in reaction to the bungled response to Hurricane Katrina, DAP has demonstrated that dedicated and informed oversight can help ensure that government agencies and nonprofit organizations live up to their life-saving obligations before, during, and after crises. Our History Over the past few years, members of Congress, the news media, and emergency management practitioners have requested and utilized the research and real-time information collected by DAP. For a young organization, DAP has had an out-sized and far-reaching impact (as reported by ABC News, the Associated Press, the New Orleans Times-Picayune, and the Chronicle of Philanthropy, among others). Some of these accomplishments include: • Investigating and authoring a report on how accessible and up-to-date the emergency plans in twenty-two hurricane-vulnerable Louisiana parishes were; this report prompted many parishes to update and improve the public accessibility of their plans. • Conducting a successful campaign to compel FEMA to comply with federal law and elevate the position of FEMA Disability Coordinator, so that she has more authority and resources available to fulfill the position's mandate.

Together, we are equipping more than 2,300 farming families, benefiting more than 14,200 adults and children to overcome the many challenges they face and restore their land and their lives. We are especially encouraged to report that in the last fiscal year most program goals were met or exceeded, despite the challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic and of ongoing political and financial instability in Haiti. Our team also took on the additional work of adapting program activities to protect the health of farming families, and to communicate the dangers posed by the virus. We could not be prouder of our team and the quality and integrity of their work. Thank you for your commitment to the people of Haiti, and for your consideration of a $30,000 grant in FY2021. It is in challenging times like these that we must remain faithful and continue to equip farming families to gain hope and dignity. Your resources and efforts are truly making a difference.

  • Taken for a Ride Report
    Taken for a ride The conditions for elephants used in tourism in Asia Preface We have been moving the world to protect animals for more than 50 years. Currently working in more than 50 countries and on six continents, we are a truly global organisation. Protecting the world’s wildlife from exploitation and cruelty is central to our work. The Wildlife – not entertainers campaign aims to end the suffering of hundreds of thousands of wild animals used and abused in the tourism entertainment industry. The strength of the campaign is in building a movement to protect wildlife. Travel companies and tourists are at the forefront of taking action for elephants, and other wild animals. Moving the travel industry In 2010 TUI Nederland became the first tour operator to stop all sales and promotion of venues offering elephant rides and shows. It was soon followed by several other operators including Intrepid Travel who, in 2013, was first to stop such sales and promotions globally. By early 2017, more than 160 travel companies had made similar commitments and now offer elephant-friendly tourism activities. TripAdvisor announced in 2016 that it would end the sale of tickets for wildlife experiences where tourists come into direct contact with captive wild animals, including elephant riding. This decision was in response to 550,000 people taking action with us to demand that the company stop profiting from the world’s cruellest wildlife attractions. Yet these changes are only the start. There is much more to be done to save elephants and other wild animals from suffering in the name of entertainment.

  • Public Funding from Australia, Canada, and the UK
    Research for the Developing World: Public Funding from Australia, Canada, and the UK Bruce Currie-Alder - 2015 – This is a preprint version Published version is on Oxford Scholarship Online - 10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198742937.001.0001 ABSTRACT: Research for the developing world can generate evidence on the effectiveness of foreign aid, invent new technologies that serve poor people, and strengthen research capabilities in poor countries. How do countries determine which of these policy goals to pursue? Examining the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia reveals how each country established a unique approach to research funding. Programs and grantmaking evolved in response to various expectations across governments, tempered by the need to remain credible in the scientific community. This book explores the histories of the UK Department for International Development (DFID), Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC), and the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR). Looking back, changes in research governance encouraged a shift towards whole-of-government priorities, shorter timeframes for realizing results, and performance predicated on academic productivity and research impact. Whereas funders used to encourage “small is beautiful” with local experiments in development, today the emphasis is on “getting to scale” delivering innovation through self-financing models. Looking forward, research for the developing world is fading as part of development assistance, yet rising as collaboration on common global challenges. Funders are adopting new definitions of performance and actively shaping policy to connect science and international development. Leaders are brokering partnerships that connect research governance at home and abroad, bridging the incentives toward academic productivity and research impact.
