Data and information systems are fundamental building blocks of social protection programmes. They all need a process and a mechanism for collecting, storing and processing data. However, developing these registries presents enormous challenges. Especially in finding ways for these to become truly dynamic, so that social protection systems can respond effectively to peoples' changing circumstances, such as in the face of shocks. This is perhaps one of the greatest hurdles facing the sector. In this episode, we'll cut through the terminology and periodic controversy to talk about how these information systems work, and how to make them work better. Meet our guests: Rodrigo Assumpção, President of DataPrev (Brazil) Valentina Barca, Independent Social Protection Expert For our Quick Wins segment, we are joined by Gabrielle Smith, Independent consultant and member of the STAAR Facility.

My guest today epitomizes what it means to follow a dream and to completely transform oneself into an olympic champion. Andrea Proske joins me for a discussion about her amazing life journey. At 27 years old, Andrea had very limited experience with team sport and although an active person by nature, she had never pursued excellence in her life through sport, let alone had never rowed in her life. At 27, She was working in the hotel industry at the time and had the opportunity to compete in her first Tough Mudder race. After this race, she became inspired to change her life and to find something new and challenging to tackle. As she says in this episode, she felt stuck in her life, not sure what to do. She wasn't sure what this new challenge was going to be, but would go on to give rowing a try and what a story this turned out to be as 3 short years later she earned herself a spot on the Canadian Women's National Rowing Team. In our conversation today, we unpack the roles of resilience and determination in Andrea's life and how she was able to overcome numerous obstacles throughout the 8 years that she took up the sport of rowing, including a serious accident in 2015. In Andrea's own words, Failing forward quickly became her motto…. she braved injuries, underperformance, the firing of an abusive head coach, falling out of the boat more times than she cares to admit, a global pandemic and a historic Olympic postponement. But along the way she learned valuable lessons on handling failure, burnout, uncertainty… and the power of sisterhood.On Friday, July 30th, Andre Proske's dreams came true as her and her team of 9 won Canada's first gold medal in rowing in nearly 20 years. In this episode, Andrea talks about the Tokyo Olympics and what life has been like since winning gold. She also shares the work she is doing now and what her biggest hopes are in moving forward in her life. Wherever you are in the world listening to this, I hope you find value in this discussion as there is so much that we can learn from Andrea's journey. About Andrea: In her Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020, Andrea Proshe was a member of the women's eight that won gold. It was Canada's first Olympic gold in any women's rowing event since Atlanta 1996 and the first gold in the women's eight since Barcelona 1992.As a club rower looking to break onto the national team in 2016, Proske attended her first international regattas in Amsterdam (Holland Beker) and London (Henley Royal Regatta). The highlight was winning the senior women's single sculls at the Henley and by the end of the year she was received her invitation to the national team.She first represented Canada on the senior international circuit in the double sculls with Gabrielle Smith in 2018. In their World Cup debut as a duo, they won silver in Lucerne. Later that summer, they finished sixth at the World Rowing Championships. They won another World Cup medal in 2019, this time a bronze in Rotterdam. They capped the season with a fourth-place finish in the double sculls at the world championships, qualifying the boat for Canada for Tokyo 2020.Connect With Andrea: Website: https://andreaproske.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/AndreaProskeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreaproske/

Today on Double Teamed, Cami and Niki welcome Gabrielle Smith, a Brooklyn-based intersectional sex/relationship writer and poly educator. She offers support sessions focused on sharing education and information that affirms, reassures and resonates. In some cases, marriage isn't always the happily ever after we all hope for. Without clearly defining what each partner wants and what they need from each other and from the marriage itself, things eventually may not work out. But marriage isn't the only way to secure a partnership or commit to one! You can be in an open relationship with several people with clearly defined needs, wants, and expectations and still live a fulfilled and satisfied life.

Gabrielle lives in Fort Worth Texas with her husband and her 7 year old son and 4 year old daughter. While she works as an attorney, she could just as easily be a professional meal planner and prepper. Gabrielle has been one of our most active Facebook members. She so generously offers tips and suggestions when others need it and routinely shares not only photos of her meals but the comments of the food critics she cooks for. During the time she’s been a part of our community, I can also tell what an incredibly organized, process-based person she is, and she’s stepped up those skills during the pandemic. During our chat, I had her share how she’s had to adapt her weekly meal planning and grocery shopping process to accommodate all this new normal we’re living through. We talked the day before Mother’s Day, and it was such a delight to not only talk to one of my favorite members, but a mom I truly admire. In our chat, Gabrielle shares: How she meal plans normally and what changes she’s had to make during the pandemic How she’s introduced more meatless meals into her life, and how you can too, especially important now with potential meat chickens and pork shortages in our future How she manages her life week-to-week to fit in all the things that are important to her Come join us as we talk to this great Cook Smarts friend!

Animal Intersections In his forthcoming book A Hoot in the Light: Illuminating the Sensory Modes of Animal Communication, Alex Parrish says that by recognizing animal voices, we do not diminish our own – but open the potential to make our particular brand of humanism a little more humane. Parrish talks with us about how communication evolves, and how wildly different species of animals employ similar persuasive tactics in order to solve similar problems. And: In Norfolk’s Calvert Square, preschoolers plant watermelon and okra next to 200,000 live bees. They aren’t alone. Carrie “Honeybee” Brown has planted apiaries in community gardens across the city in an effort to save the ailing honeybee. Now, she’s planning to shave bees and attach transmitters to get neighbourhood kids interested in entomology. Later in the show: Biologist Kevin Hamed discovered a consistently alarming number of tiny skulls stuck in glass bottles found roadside litter. Tiny shrews are crawling in, but can’t get back out. He and his students are on the case, trying to solve mysteries where humans and the wilderness intersect. Plus: A study in Appalacia is taking very close look at roadkill. James Vance and Gabrielle Smith hope to find ways to help animals avoid crossing a particularly high-traffic area.
In this episode we speak to Gabrielle, the founder of The:nublk, which is a platform that showcases the work of contemporary creatives and content with a focus on Africa and the Diaspora.

On today's episode, I talk to musician Gabby Smith, the woman behind the band Eskimeaux. As Gabby puts it in an interview with Stereogum, Eskimeaux began slightly to spite an ex-boyfriend that accused her of not doing anything. So overnight in 2007, she recorded her first album. Since then she's released a number of records, and her latest is the beautiful Two Mountains, which is available from Yellow K Records. Gabby is also a founding member of The Epoch, a Brooklyn-based songwriting and art collective.This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, follow me on Twitter.
I've known about Gabrielle Smith's work since 2010 through her popular, award-winning website The:nublk, a platform that showcases the work of contemporary creatives and content with a focus on Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora. (Sound familiar?) We talked about what Gabrielle has learned since starting The:nublk, Black people we should look out for in the British creative scene, some of the coolest projects she's worked with, and her advice for creatives who need a push. I'm really interested in seeing what Gabrielle's next move will be! Gabrielle Smith's Website The:nublk The:nublk on Twitter The:nublk on Instagram The:nublk on Facebook
