Dazu gehören auch thematische Internet-Plattformen und musikalische Education-Programme.

Musikvermittlung ist in. Gerade in Corona Zeiten läuft der Diskurs auf Hochtouren, eine große Rolle spielen Diversität und Digitalität, auch die Sorge ums Publikum von Morgen treibt die „Education Programme“ voran. Eine „sekundäre“ und „parasitäre“ Sprechkultur (George Steiner) muss Vermittlung nicht sein. Doch manche Verflachungs-Tendenzen und kunstfernes Denken geben Anlass zur Sorge. Verlieren wir im ganzen Reden den Respekt vor dem Werk? Und muss Musikvermittlung überhaupt immer vom Wort ausgehen?

Gareth McConaghie admits hanging up the boots wasn't easy as he was this week's guest on the Official Coleraine Podcast. The defender made the decision to retire last week after complications with a knee injury that brought an end to his six-year stay at The Showgrounds. McConaghie spoke about the difficult decision to hang up the boots, his highs and lows, playing in front of the fans and having his father in attendance taking photographs. The Dervock native revealed that he will be taking a step away from the game to concentrate on family life, with hosts Damian Mullan and Jonathan McNabb also reflecting on the midweek win against Carrick Rangers. There is also an interview with Gary Devenney about the upcoming Education Programme at The Showgrounds as the GCSE results are announced today.

David Graham from Education Equality Ireland joins Niall to discuss the planned relationships and sexuality education programme from a school in Wicklow which has angered parents.

Plunket will end its parent education programme at the end of June due to a lack of funding. The programme’s been running since 2004 and as any parents who have taken part can testify, it’s an invaluable tool to support parents and caregivers. Louise Upston is National’s spokesperson for Social Development and is behind the party’s first 1000 days for children package. Upston joined Tova on Monday morning to discuss the programme's closure.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Plunket has announced it will no longer run its parenting education programme.It comes after a month-long staff consultation, and means the loss of five permanent and 17 casual roles while a further 16 people will have their hours reduced.Chief executive Amanda Malu says the charity can no longer afford to run the programme at its current deficit of $400,000 a year.She says the courses will stop at the end of June – but she's reassuring the community it's just one type of parent support they offer, with others still available.Whānau Āwhina Plunket Chief Executive Amanda Malu joined Kerre Woodham.LISTEN ABOVE

It's no secret that tourism has a perception problem when it comes to encouraging youngsters into working in our industry.  There has been a lot of work going on behind the scenes to improve this via the education system, community engagement and industry advocacy.  The Go with Tourism Workforce Wānanga in November last year brought together great minds from across the Tourism & Hospitality industry, associations, unions, educators and local/central government to develop solutions that will improve and build our workforce. The Action Plan 2 has just been released so we're joined today by Go with Tourism's new Programme Director Heidi Gillingham to discuss the outcomes.  Heidi Gillingham is one of New Zealand's up-and-coming tourism leaders. Having been in the industry in one way or another since leaving high school, it's no surprise that her path in life led her to the adventure capital of the world. Originally from the UK, Queenstown was her home for seven years before relocating to Auckland in 2022. Heidi progressed to the role of Programme Director for Go with Tourism after spending 18 months as a regional coordinator for the initiative, managing the Education Programme and other youth-oriented initiatives. Her previous work experience includes human resource management, and training and development with Taco Medic, AJ Hackett Bungy and Queenstown Resort College. In 2019, she won the HR New Zealand Emerging Practitioner of the Year Award. Heidi's motto is “work hard, play hard”. While she is a strong believer that good results come directly from hard work, she is equally adamant that success is found when one can switch off at the end of the day and enjoy life outside of the ‘office'.

Lubrano is a cofounder of the Latin America Corporate Governance Roundtable. He is currently a director of FIBRA ECO. He is the coauthor of Governance, Stewardship and Sustainability (2021). SHOW NOTESmpact of Technology on the Future of Corporate GovernanceRam Charan: Three factors every board must considerNeed to have a view of the outside world that is not purely driven by management. Need independent  view of the outsideTechnology: must focus is critical because a company cannot be everything to everyone. Must have the right CEO aCapital Allocation: balance between short term and long termTechnology will be a critical driver of enabling a board to understand these three critical areasEffective agenda setting to improve the effective time of board meetingsStilpon: Royal Post upgraded many of its digital systems. How can boards fully kick the tires on a reporting system that is fully algorithmic? Boards must be more generalist and with access to more information from the outside.Technology will change employee participation in the boardroom. Judy Samuelson: Era of hyper transparency. Employees have good sightlines into business decision making and ability to follow the money in a way never previously possible. Authentic leadership is keeping your promises and outsiders and employees are now able to apply a level of scrutiny never previously possible with new technology. Technology empowers employees to build consensus and communicate with each other in ways previously not available to other generationsJudy Samuelson: Cultural barrier to employees represented on board. Employees have same long-term interest in the companies success. In the knowledge economy ignore them at your own peril. Employees are the centerpiece of the success of the business. How will the pandemic impact corporate governance moving forward:Ram Charan: Cycle time is reducing, communicating with competitors. 6 boards meetings for boards usually sometimes 4Judy Samuelson: the pandemic ushered in a new era of private, public partnership Total reshaping of executive compensation. Move away from stock in order to incentivize long-term interests and success. “Cannot have a successful business in a failed society”Stilpon: Impacts the new “distributed board” era and will impact the agendas and consolidation of the agendas to allow for more deep diving into the issues during meetings, but less consequential stuff can be distributed to be completed outside of meetings. What knowledge and skills will future board members need?Stilpon: More well-rounded generalists rather than direct specialists on specific topics. Ram Charan: Many board members still don't have the basic finance knowledge (balance sheets)Judy Samuelson: Need more women on boards and need more diversity Final StatementsRam Charan: Broaden focus but cannot focus solely on stakeholders, have the right CEO, focus the agenda every year, employees need to be rewarded in same way as top management to decrease inequalityStilpon Nestor: Companies will become much more social animals. Boards will be freed from the short-termism and be more strategic. Variable architecture in their composition, more distributed boards and distributed dutiesChallenge: going to new social companies is lacking a complete and fulsome accountability structure to replace the shareholder accountability modelJudy Samuelson: Shareholder accountability is not the solution. How will the culture of boards evolve? Status quo will not get us where we want to go. More diversity and supporting the executive to do some difficult and “unpopular” things.

He is the coauthor of Governance, Stewardship and Sustainability (2021). SHOW NOTESMegatrends shaping corporate governanceJudy Samuelson: Employees are changing the power structureMuch better window into corporate accountability than investors or management, or regulatorsStilpon: Control of corporations is changing. Concentration of control with multiple voting rights, SPACs.2.) Much more voice outside of the company. Corporations are becoming much more social animals than economic animals (corporations are political actors). 3.) Ebb and flow of regulation post 2008Ram Charan: Public boards now have a new boss and the Engine #1 example is proof of that. The new boss is the long-term, permanent investor (passive, BlackRock, Vanguard, Atavists). Drivers: Sustainability and the new boss is 24/7What is the effect of the debate of the purpose of the corporationStilpon: Not quite sure that in spite of the UK CorpGov code and BRT announcement, not sure we have actually seen companies putting purpose into action, and it remains to be seen how companies will “hardwire” purpose into strategy, actions, and compensation incentives.Could simply be a way of dodging accountability to shareholders by diluting the accountability across multiple stakeholder constituenciesRam Charan: Purpose goes back to Harvard Business school since the 1930s. India culturally practices giving 10% of profit to charity. Purpose has been practiced for decades and it merely means that the current efforts of social engagement are not enough. Judy Samuelson: Stakeholder is a bad term, but we need business to be at the table. The law around corporate purpose is not holding us back, but it is the system and infrastructure that keeps the shareholders at the top and front and center to business objectives. Employees are better at accountability than shareholders, and can better account for companies aligned to the promises and expectations set out in BRT. Strong focus on what the company is doing and producing tied to that purpose and what the effects it is having in doing and producing those things on the community it operates in? Derive purpose from this17:00: Moment of huge change with directors retiring in the new normal. We need new innovation at the level of governance. CEO must assess the entire ecosystem of the business, external and internal. Rethink committee structure, employees are not going to be quiet, companies are returning 90% of profits to shareholders in buybacks and dividendsImminent and measurable: composition and diversity are improving but not there yet. 2.) increasing compensation between the top and the bottom, front line workers is untenableTalking about how the business model works and what it is designed to do and then what is the impact in the real world of that modelStilpon: Skeptical, startup model with purpose is potentially a way towards instituting the purpose into the organizationLarge Companies – Is there a dichotomy between the bosses and players a large company has versus mid and small cap that are not high-profile (not as big targets for activists and passive investors)Judy Samuelson: Not sure. Capital is not scarce and many companies simply go public as a means of providing an early escape hatch for their early investors, but they do not actually need capital. Large and small is not the right distinction. Focusing on culture and impact. Inequality needs to bring everyone to the tableCrisis is driving change. Larger companies as they are targeted as they provide a means of bringing the entire vendor, supply chain, and ecosystem to the table to drive change. Small is much more dynamic so it will be interesting to see how they impact this spaceStilpon: Large companies are just engaged in a political communications exercise. 

ABOUT THIS EPISODE – My guest this week is passionate about hats! Her life long love affair with hats started as a child with a grandmother who had a dressing up box full of hats and now she is the grandma playing hats with her own granddaughter. Hat Historian Tricia Hamilton has travelled the world, always wearing her hat and during her journey of life has worn many different career hats. At the heart of her rich tapestry of life is passion. In this episode Tricia describes a fascinating life full of creativity through stories, showing the power of passion to ensure confidence and success. We also talk about how to feel confident wearing a hat through to how Tricia has patented her own hat called The O Hat and how she shares her love of hats through The Hat Channel.com KEY TAKEAWAYS “if you're passionate and you really want to do something, take a little step. I think it's really good to take little steps and see what's out there. And if you find that all those little steps join up, and you can actually move in that direction” ABOUT TRICIA HAMILTON –  Three decades of global travel spanning four continents have impacted on my life.  A key feature developed as senior teachers began to ask for my help to reach their academic goals in a distance Master in Education Programme with Exeter University. My experiences led them to request guidance for their own studies. Confidence strengthened when I had to pick myself up from a very dark place in a difficult divorce. Over the last ten years, with new ventures in Millinery work, my O Hat patent and belonging to The Professional Speaking Association all supported my personal growth. A career in teaching showed me how to authenticity engage my audiences. Now, I follow my passion for hats and explore new avenues to share stories.  I have found audience are keen to hear and step into my world of hats. My national coverage on Radio4 and recently BBC1 primetime ‘Have I Got News for You' with 5 million viewers offered magnificent coverage, carving a route forward for The Hat Channel supported by iPlus Marketing.  This has given me opportunities to move towards TV commentary as a Hat Historian through the history of hats.

Indigenous educational disadvantage has persisted despite countless initiatives, programmes, and spending from governments and communities. For solutions to help truly close the gap, CIS hosts a stellar panel in our latest webinar: Dr Lorraine Hammond AM, Nyunggai Warren Mundine AO, and Jacinta Nampijinpa Price. The educational plight of indigenous students has endured despite countless initiatives and programs from governments and communities. Despite the best intentions of policymakers, we haven't produced a fundamental shift to policy or to the narrative needed to overcome indigenous educational disadvantage. Truly closing the gap will only be achievable with new policy directions, renewed community leadership, and capacity development of educators. We are delighted to host Lorraine, Warren, and Jacinta to discuss the challenges of educational disadvantage within majority indigenous schools and communities. What are the big issues faced by teachers, schools, and parents in majority-indigenous communities? What can educators, communities, and policymakers do to better meet the educational needs of students? The conversation is moderated by CIS education research fellow, Glenn Fahey. _________________________________________ Dr Lorraine Hammond AM, leads professional learning and coaching for literacy instruction for teachers and school leaders in some of Australia's most disadvantaged indigenous communities in the Kimberley region. Nyunggai Warren Mundine AO, is Chair of the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation and formerly chaired the Australian Government's Indigenous Advisory Council. Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, is Director of the CIS' Indigenous Affairs research programme, serves as Deputy Mayor of Alice Springs City Council, and is an experienced cross-cultural consultant. _________________________________________

The New Zealand Council for Educational Research determined that in the wake of COVID-19, "the need for a programme such as Sorted in Schools, [which] builds on the circumstances, strengths, needs and aspirations of every student, including Māori and Pacific, is greater than ever".

“We are all born geniuses and the purpose of human life is to find an interface for that genius... and food can truly be the catalyst for that interface.” 3.5 BILLION meals and counting... Bhawani Singh Shekhawat is the Chief Executive of The Akshaya Patra Foundation UK. The Foundation started 20 years ago in India, to tackle the dual issues of classroom hunger and access to education for disadvantaged children. The Foundation's guiding vision is that no child should be deprived of an education because of hunger. This is the remarkable story of how The Akshaya Patra Foundation grew from serving meals to 1,500 students, to serving over 3.5 billion meals to date, through the creation of an internationally award-winning Food for Education Programme. The Akshaya Patra Foundation is today, highly acclaimed as the world's largest non-profit run Mid-day Meal Programme, serving about 2 million meals daily. Its work has been recognised by the World Economic Forum, it has been formulated as a Case Study at Harvard Business School and in 2019 the Foundation received the BBC Global Food Champion Award. The Akshaya Patra Foundation is now expanding its work in the UK, serving free, nutritious food to the homeless and to children vulnerable to food poverty, during school holidays. In this episode Bhawani talks about the importance of food and how it plays a key role in creating a better society. He demonstrates how through the power of great questions, organisations and individuals can access more of their genius. And he highlights powerful lessons in leadership along the way.

Albert Laveau is the Artistic and Managing Director of the Trinidad Theatre Workshop. He joined the then young theatre company in 1962 where, over the years, he became one of the best-known actors in Trinidad, along-side performers such as Errol Jones, Stanley Marshall, Eunice Alleyne, Claude Reid and dozens of others who graced the Trinidad Theatre Workshop stage over the years. Among his acting credits are included leading roles in productions of “The First Born”, “Dark of the Moon”, “Moon for the Misbegotten” and “Tartuffe”. He is perhaps best-known on stage for his role as The Devil in Walcott’s “Ti-Jean and His Brothers”. Mr. Laveau also played principal roles in Walcott productions including “The Joker of Seville”, “Dream on Monkey Mountain”, “Henri Christophe”, and “The Sea at Dauphin” among others. A top-notch director as well as actor, Mr. Laveau spent part of the 1970s acting and directing professionally in the United States, where he worked with Joe Papp at the Public Theatre, was a guest director at New York University’s MFA Programme, became a resident director with the Negro Ensemble and also played in their touring production of “The River Niger” by Richard Walker for a year. Despite his success abroad, Mr. Laveau saw his work as first and foremost the development of theatre here in his home of Trinidad and Tobago. He moved back home, and in 1989 was appointed to the position of Managing and Artistic Director of his home theatre company, where he was able to put into place two programmes which he feels passionately about and are still active today: the Theatre in Education Programme which brings staged productions of plays on CXC syllabi to school children to enhance their understanding of the texts and also expose them to theatre, and the School for the Arts, which has taught hundreds of students over the past quarter century, from as young as six to the elderly, in acting, directing, design, dance and more. In his later career Mr. Laveau made appearances in several local feature films, including the 2001 “Mystic Masseur” and 2013 “God Loves the Fighter”. To this day Mr. Laveau is active in the Trinidad Theatre Workshop, pushing forward and leading his team to continue ensuring that his vision continues to live on. http://www.culture.gov.tt/our-mentors/albert-laveau/ - Biography https://www.trinidadtheatreworkshop.com/ - Trinidad Theater Workshop

At Vitafoods Europe 2018, we saw a real focus on industry responsibility and transparency: the importance of sustainability was highlighted on the Centre Stage, consumer education was discussed in the Education Programme and exhibitors up and down the exhibition hall were discussing industry responsibility to consumers and the issue of misinformation. With the myriad forms of information available to consumers nowadays, it can be difficult to parse through the noise and find ‘the truth in nutrition'. Misinformation, in particular, seems to be in abundance these days, as we see consumers becoming more interested in their health and swamped by the sheer volume of information out there. Heather Granato, VP Content at the Global Health and Nutrition Network, joins us live at Vitafoods Europe 2018 to discuss the issue of responsibility in communication and how the ultimate aim is to help consumers reach optimum health.

In this podcast, "Bond" fame Vic Brazil talks about how to get ready for starting a simulation-based educational programme in your institute. She shares her valuable insights and pearls of wisdom to help upcoming educators in dealing with this common dilemma.

The health care industry is undergoing functional and structural changes from a 'fee-for-service' to 'value-based' services at a national level in various countries. This movement is currently experiencing renewed impetus as several food components are being employed as medicines, such as polyphenols, fibres, and probiotics. As Dr Dilip Ghosh, director of Nutriconnect, explains, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between bioactive molecules termed 'drugs' and other substances classified as 'nutrients.' He advocates for the nutraceutical model to shift from the illness to the wellness domain, focusing on keeping people healthy, rather than looking after them when they're ill. Dilip Ghosh will be speaking on the Vitafoods Europe 2018 Education Programme on this topic.

Clinical studies show diets full of antioxidants are associated with significant decreases in the overall risk of various lifestyle diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and some cancers. But current research focuses solely on the low molecular weight (soluble) antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, phenolic compounds and carotenoids - it may surprise listeners to hear there is another type of antioxidant: macromolecular. These are polymeric phenolic compounds of polyphenols also found in fruits and vegetables and research is showing they have significant effects on health and wellness. Dr Jara Perez-Jiminez joins us from the Spanish National Research Council to discuss macromolecular antioxidants and why they've been so overlooked, and Dr Fulgencio Saura-Calixto will be speaking on the Vitafoods Europe 2018 Education Programme on the topic of antioxidants vs. polyphenols.

Rabbi Sacks was recently asked some questions on the subject of leadership by a student on the Executive Education Programme at the Harvard Business School. The questions focussed on his own leadership journey and the lessons he has learnt along the way. The video, originally intended just to help the student with her assignment, ended up being shown to her entire course (with our permission!). So we thought we would share the audio of it with you here. In this recording, Rabbi Sacks offers answers to the following questions: - What was the defining moment in your leadership journey? - What are your values, principles and boundaries? - How did you discover your strengths and passions? - How do you build an integrated life? - How do you build a team? - What difference have you sought to make in the world? - What have you learnt about leadership?
