Podcasts about local communities

This podcast interview between John Pinna and Maurice Bloem of the Joint Learning Initiative (JLI) on Faith and Local Communities explores the JLI's unique approach to leveraging data and evidence for just and sustainable development. Bloem emphasizes the importance of going beyond traditional top-down models and incorporating local wisdom and diverse perspectives, including what he calls the "Ducky" framework for growth and collaboration. The conversation highlights the critical role of faith-based organizations in development due to their long-term community relationships and understanding of faith as a core aspect of identity, while also addressing the challenge of navigating bias and promoting genuine listening and dialogue in an increasingly polarized world.

Property tax reform has been a priority of Governor Mike Braun's administration from Day 1 of this year's General Assembly session.  Senate Bill 1 limits the property tax revenue Indiana counties receive by providing relief on property tax assessments. And while homeowners and businesses will see some relief, local governments are preparing for potential staff and service cuts due to the loss of revenue from the state.  Monroe County alone is projected to earn about $37 million less in revenue over the next three years, according to the state's latest fiscal analysis. Read more: County says it cannot do more with less City and county officials said the bill puts the onus on local municipalities to make up the deficit. “Because the state legislators who supported SB1 were too cowardly — and yes, I choose that word purposefully — to do their jobs, local governments are going to have to raise local income taxes to make up deficits. We're not going to have a choice,” said Monroe County Commissioner Jody Madeira. The uncertainty with the loss of funding loss is already having an effect. Monroe County Council Member Peter Iversen said the council does not want to make a financial promise that it cannot fulfill in five or 10 months. And that could mean hiring freezes and stagnant salaries. Read more: Salary request discussion leads to tense exchange at county council meeting The property tax bill will also affect the amount of money going to public schools. On this week's Noon Edition, we'll discuss the property tax law and the impact it will have on local communities. Join us on the air by calling 812-855-0811 or toll-free at 1-877-285-9348.

Uczestnicy warsztatów "Unia Europejska w praktyce" złożyli cztery petycje do UE. Okazało się to nie być trudne. Rafał Kuligowski z Team Europe Direct tłumaczy, każdy obywatel Wspólnoty ma prawo bezpośrednio zwracać się do instytucji unijnych, które z kolei na te petycje czy skargi reagują. To jedne z praw, które przysługują każdemu obywatelowi UE, trzeba jedynie o nich wiedzieć i chcieć z nich korzystać. Projekt współfinansowany przez Komisję Europejską w ramach Projektu „Building Bridges - Civic Capital in Local Communities”, realizowanego ze środków programu CERV finansowanego ze środków Komisji Europejskiej w ramach programu „Obywatele, Równość, Prawa i Wartości” na lata 2021 – 2027.

- Nie kupuję argumentacji, że ograniczenie moich praw jest potrzebne dla zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa - mówi dr Rafał Willa, adiunkt na Wydziale Nauk o Polityce i Bezpieczeństwie Uniwersytetu Mikołaja Kopernika w Toruniu. Wyjaśnia nie tylko, dlaczego bezpieczeństwo nie musi oznaczać ograniczenia praw, ale także tłumaczy czym jest współczesny terroryzm. Rafał Willa mówi o narzędziach, którymi posługują się terroryści, o strachu i rosnącym zagrożeniu cybernetycznym. Projekt współfinansowany przez Komisję Europejską w ramach Projektu „Building Bridges - Civic Capital in Local Communities”, realizowanego ze środków programu CERV finansowanego ze środków Komisji Europejskiej w ramach programu „Obywatele, Równość, Prawa i Wartości” na lata 2021 – 2027.

W spolaryzowanym świecie co raz mniej jest pojęć, które nie budzą kontrowersji. Śmiało można zatem powiedzieć, że dyskryminacja jest zła. Różnice zaczynają się pojawiać, gdy zaczniemy zastanawiać się, czym jest dyskryminacja i jak z nią walczyć. Prof. Radosław Potorski z Uniwersytetu Mikołaja Kopernika w Toruniu wyjaśnia, w jaki sposób z tym wyzwaniem radzi sobie Unia Europejska. W praktyce Wspólnota daje każdemu obywatelowi do ręki narzędzia walki o swoje prawa. Najpierw trzeba jednak poznać reguły i nauczyć się posługiwać dostępnymi narzędziami.Projekt współfinansowany przez Komisję Europejską w ramach Projektu „Building Bridges - Civic Capital in Local Communities”, realizowanego ze środków programu CERV finansowanego ze środków Komisji Europejskiej w ramach programu „Obywatele, Równość, Prawa i Wartości” na lata 2021 – 2027.

On today's podcast, Arizona Real Estate Mogul and Change Agent Tim McBride shares his personal journey of finding a bigger purpose beyond real estate, leaving a legacy of service. BACK STORY Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Tim McBride pursued a career in professional sports and entertainment upon earning undergraduate and graduate degrees in the field. After his sports-tech company plateaued, he found himself back in Arizona and pivoted into what has been a fruitful six-year career in real estate. Now residing in the Scottsdale area, McBride works with residential clients in Scottsdale and nearby locales. He strives to be intentional in his interactions and build real relationships with his clientele. Describing his approach as relationship-driven and impact-focused, he challenges himself daily to elevate his standard of service to clients and community. With a passion for real estate and serving his community, Tim began The Change Agent Golf Classic, a tournament benefiting The Driven Project, a nonprofit dedicated to bringing joy and strength to children battling critical illnesses.  Recently established in Scottsdale by founder Kevin Gordon, The Driven Project provides these young warriors with unforgettable “supercare therapy” experiences, giving them a chance to ride in exotic cars and escape the challenges they face - even if it's just for the day.  This uplifting experience offers a profound sense of hope, strength, and inspiration for these children and their families during an incredibly challenging time.   In addition to The Change Agent Golf Classic, Tim also heads the Homes for Good Foundation, a purpose driven movement of independent real estate professionals designed to tell a much bigger story beyond the transaction and be a catalyst for inspiration, impact and the transformation in our neighborhoods and communities. Where every real estate transaction means immediate local impact.    Website: https://timmcbriderealestate.com/ https://homesforgoodfoundation.org/ https://cbo.io/bidapp/index.php?slug=changeagent     Instagram: @timmcbride_changeagent   SUBSCRIBE TO ICONIC HOUR If you enjoyed today's podcast, I'd be so appreciative if you'd take two minutes to subscribe, rate and review ICONIC HOUR.

SkyCity and the TAB have complained there won't be a level playing field when the new regulations for online gambling kick in. The Government is set to auction off 15 online casino licences - and both local and international companies will be allowed to bid on the licences. Internal Affairs Minister Brooke van Velden says it's important proper regulations are put in place. "We are enabling people to play safely in a regulated market - which is not the case at the moment. But we are also not trying to restrict it so much that we're not actually channelling people into that market." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to episode #966 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Christine Rosen is a thinker whose work boldly interrogates the intersections of history, technology, and culture, and she's someone I've long admired for her incisive intellect. Christine's new book, The Extinction of Experience - Being Human In A Disembodied World, invites us to reflect on what we lose when technology mediates so much of our lives. In this conversation, we unpacked the book's provocative thesis: that the human experiences most fundamental to our identity - face-to-face connection, serendipity, patience, and risk - are at risk of atrophy in an increasingly virtual world. Christine, whose earlier works include Preaching Eugenics, My Fundamentalist Education, The Feminist Dilemma, and Acculturated, takes a nuanced, critical stance on technology. She acknowledges its benefits but urges caution about its unintended consequences. Together, we explore the blurred boundaries between virtual and real, the societal implications of a two-tier care system, and the surprising resurgence of physical community spaces like libraries and malls post-pandemic. Christine's historical perspective, informed by her background as a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and her experience as a columnist for Commentary, lends depth to her argument that we must actively choose to reclaim experiences that ground us in the physical world. She shared insights on how tools like AI might aid healthcare but warned of the risks when they replace human judgment in areas like justice or personal relationships. Her reflections on community, loneliness, and the enduring importance of “third spaces” remind us that connection is essential to our humanity. If you've ever wondered how to balance the convenience of technology with the richness of lived experience, this conversation is a must-listen. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 1:06:40.

(Conversation recorded on November 7th, 2024)     Long-time listeners of The Great Simplification may have a good grasp of the many impending crises that humanity faces. But once we understand the scope of this predicament, what changes could we make to prepare in our own communities right now?  Today, Nate is joined by local organizer and activist Christian Sawyer, to discuss how he's built a pro-social community in rural Arizona. Christian emphasizes the power of local collaboration and demonstrates how the cultivation of social capital builds resilience in the face of challenges, as well as creates better lives for those who live in the community. Together, Nate and Christian explore the dynamics of community work parties, the skills learned through cooperation, and the significance of trust and friendship in building a supportive network.  What do aspects of The Great Simplification look like in action? What are the most common challenges faced in group settings, and what lessons can it teach about the values of love, wisdom, and art in fostering meaningful connections? How can anyone, anywhere start creating local initiatives and engaging with ecological awareness? When fostering community, why should we emphasize empowering individuals in order to solve local problems and advocate towards the protection of our most important resources?     About Christian Sawyer: Christian Sawyer is a local organizer, community lobbyist, sustainable home builder, musician, researcher, and groundwater activist in rural southeast Arizona. He is a journalist for the Arizona Agenda, as well as for Ground Party Papers, a local newsletter for alternative, off-grid, sustainable lifestyles.

Apologies for the audio quality. Due to a demon infecting the ones & zeros we were forced to use our backup recording. In this episode of Bros Bibles and Beer, we explore various themes including the divisive experience of trying a unique pickle beer, the divisiveness in politics and society, the role of social media in amplifying these divisions, and the impact of cultural and technological changes on human connection. We also discuss the church's response to these societal shifts, emphasizing the importance of community and shared values amidst growing polarization. We discuss how identity politics have created divisions, the importance of individual perspectives over group labels, and the challenges of navigating inclusivity within faith communities. The conversation also touches on the historical context of the church's stance on social issues and the need for a more nuanced understanding of acceptance versus affirmation. In this conversation, we delve into the complexities of the church's role in society, discussing the infiltration of worldly influences through social media, the balance between local and global missions, and the implications of the Great Commission. We explore the challenges faced by church leaders in addressing current events while maintaining a focus on biblical teachings and community service.
