Regione Emilia Romagna Provincia: Rimini Ambiente: LINK UTILI EVENTI Formaggio di fossa Le prime due domeniche di Novembre LUOGHI DA VISITARE Il prestigioso patrimonio pittorico di Talamello è stato, nel 2002, arricchito con l'apertura del Museopinacoteca Gualtieri "Lo splendore del reale", costituito da oltre 40 tele che il pittore di origini talamellesi Fernando Gualtieri ha donato dal Comune. Per chi capita in paese é d'obbligo una sosta alla grande fontana che ne abbellisce la piazza e la camminata boscosa fino al Pincio, dove, tra castagni, pini e ricco sottobosco, si può ammirare tutta la Valmarecchia. Museo -pinacoteca GUALTIERI "Lo splendore del reale" Dettagli dell'Area Sosta GPS 43°54'48.72N 12°18'15.36E Comune Amico del Turismo Itinerante TALAMELLO realizzato grazie all'interesse del Club "Viaggiare in Libertà" Il paese posto alle pendici del monte Pincio fu proprieta' della famiglia Della Faggiola e poi dei Malatesta. E' possedimento della chiesa feretrana fino al 1296, quando il ghibellino Maghinardo Pagani, conducendo riminesi e montefeltrani assieme(caso raro nella storia di queste terre) riuscì a conquistarlo.A Talamello c'è uno splendido Crocifisso del '300 che, ogni lunedì di Pentecoste, portato in processione, richiama fedeli da tutta la zona limitrofa; molti ritengono che l'autore di questo Crocifisso sia Giotto, dipinto nel 1300, è conservato sull'altare maggiore della seicentesca chiesa parrocchiale di S.Lorenzo; sempre in questa piccola ma preziosa chiesetta si può ammirare una Madonna con Bambino del '400, bella statua policroma lignea, ed un altrettanto ben fatto crocifisso ligneo del XVI secolo.Ad ottobre la Fiera delle Castagne della Valmarecchia, mentre in novembre Talamello diventa la capitale del formaggio di fossa, con una bella fiera dedicata al prodotto: questa caciotta, tipica della zona, viene fatta riposare e maturare in fosse ottenute nel banco di roccia arenaria su cui è fondato il paese stesso (il nome infatti deriva da thalamos, cioe' grotte, abitazione); dopo tre mesi di stagionatura la caciotta è pronta ad essere consumata e prende il nome di L'Ambra di Talamello (così "battezzata" dal poeta Tonino Guerra), considerati gli odori e i sapori con cui si arricchisce. Questa usanza di mettere il formaggio nelle fosse non nasce con intento culinario: tutto il procedimento pare risalga al medioevo quando gli allevatori della zona dovevano nascondere i formaggi ai predoni e ai ladri; o piu' semplicemente era necessario che li conservassero per un periodo piu' lungo senza che questi seccassero eccessivamente. In questo caso si perde un poco di poesia, ma il sapore di questo prodotto rimane sempre impareggiabile. COMUNICATO STAMPA Da sabato la patria del Formaggio di Fossa è anche "Comune Amico del Turismo Itinerante": la targa simbolo dei Comuni che, con apposita delibera, decidono di promuovere il turismo itinerante. Talamello turismo itinerante, offrendo gratuitamente l'utilizzo di un'area attrezzata con i servizi minimi per autocaravan, è stata assegnata a Talamello dall'Unione Club Amici, il collegamento nazionale che raccoglie 107 club di camperisti in una "rete di reciproca ospitalità". A consegnare il cartello, il coordinatore per Camperstop in zona Guide convenzionate CAMPER for ASSISTANCE CampHotel il Centro Italia dell'Uca, Pietro Biondi, che ha incontrato il sindaco Ugolini sabato pomeriggio al Museo Pinacoteca Gualtieri, nell'ambito del raduno organizzato dal Club "Viaggiare in Libertà" di Ancona. I camperisti anconetani hanno scelto infatti Talamello come meta per il weekend: attirati dal profumo del formaggio. I sindaci celebrano il matrimonio fra il formaggio di fossa e la mortadella di fossa e delle castagne del Monte Pincio, dal panorama offerto dalla terrazza naturale su cui sorge il borgo e dalle sue bellezze artistiche, hanno approfittato dell'area di sosta nei pressi del ristorante Tanha per visitare la chiesa di San Lorenzo, la cella con gli affreschi di Antonio Alberti da Ferrara e la Pinacoteca, partecipando poi alla Fiera del Formaggio di Fossa. Giunta alla XXIV edizione, la manifestazione, che si replicherà domenica, è stata impreziosita anche da un altro gemellaggio, quello dell'Ambra di Talamello con la mortadella "Favola di Modena" del Comune di San Prospero: un matrimonio approvato dai tanti turisti che hanno preso parte alla festa nonostante il maltempo, alla presenza del senatore Tofani, dell'onorevole Pini, del prefetto Saladino, del presidente della Camera di Commercio Maggioli e di altre autorità. su home

Auswertung der Bürgerumfrage zum öffentlichen Personennahverkehr in Neubiberg Unser Dank gilt Herrn Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Kieslich für die überaus schnelle und umfassende Datenauswertung und seine stets kooperative Zusammenarbeit. Vorbemerkungen: Bei der Gemeinde Neubiberg sind 367 Fragebögen eingegangen, die in die Auswertung eingeflossen sind Dabei waren aus dem Gemeindeteil Unterbiberg 29 Fragebögen eingegangen. Aus dem Ortsteil Neubiberg erreichten uns 338 Antworten. Bei der zugrunde gelegten Einwohnerzahl von 12911 Einwohnern (= 10.500 Einwohner ohne Studenten, die sich an der Umfrage (fast) nicht beteiligt haben und herausgerechnet wurden), erhielten wir damit 3,52 Antworten auf 100 Einwohner. Innerhalb Neubiberg stellte sich - wie erwartet - eine überproportional starke Häufung von Antworten in folgenden Straßenzügen heraus: Pfarrer - Sickinger - Weg: 23 Rückläufe11,11 Antworten auf 100 EW Prof. - Messerschmitt-Str. 94 Rückläufe53,11 Antworten auf 100 EW Im Bereich der Prof.-Messerschmitt-Straße liegt eine 15,1 - fache Häufung vor. Bemerkenswert ist auch, dass bereits im Pfarrer - Sickinger - Weg die Antworthäufigkeit stark zurückgeht. Wer hat auf die Umfrage reagiert: Wer nutzt den öffentlichen Personennahverkehr (ÖPNV): Wann wird der ÖPNV genutzt: Fahrtbeziehungen, die im Fragebogen angegeben wurden: Für alle Fahrzwecke: Für Fahrtzweck „Arbeit": Für Fahrtzweck „Ausbildung": Neuperlach Süd Für Fahrtzweck „Erledigung": Für Fahrtzweck „Freizeit": Ergebnis auf die Frage, ob die Haltestelle „Rosenheimer Landstraße" weiterhin bedient werden soll: Ergebnis auf die Frage nach Alternativen: 216 der 259 Nutzer der Buslinie 210 sehen eine Alternative zur Bushaltestelle "Rosenheimer Landstraße" Rund die Hälfte (52 Prozent) würde zu Fuß oder mit dem Fahrrad ihr Ziel erreichen könnten auf eine andere ÖPNV-Linie ausweichen. Nur 10 Prozent geben an, dass sie ein Kfz benötigen. Diese Gruppe nutzt den ÖPNV aber nur selten. Die Haltestellen "Werner – Heisenberg - Weg" und "Alte Landstraße" gewinnen als Alternativen an Bedeutung. An ihnen ist weiterhin der Zu-/Ausstieg von den Buslinien 210 und 216 möglich. Zusammenfassende Stellungnahmen: * Stellungnahme des Herrn Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Kieslich: Die Buslinie 210 und die Haltestelle „Neubiberg, Rosenheimer Landstraße" haben vor allem Bedeutung für die Beziehung nach Neuperlach Süd (U-Bahnen). Die Haltestelle "Neubiberg, Rosenheimer Landstraße" ist momentan noch der wichtigste und relativ zentrumsnah liegender Zugangspunkt an die Linie 210. Bei einem Wegfall dieser Haltestelle sollte unbedingt eine Alternative angeboten werden. Ein Lösungsvorschlag, der bereits im Gespräch mit dem MVV angesprochen wurde (Taktverdichtung der Linie 211 / 212 zwischen Neubiberg und Neuperlach Süd U/S) ist als sinnvoll und greift anzusehen. Die Linie 210 hat aber sowohl im Erledigungs- als auch im Freizeitverkehr eine nicht unwesentliche Bedeutung als Zubringer nach Ottobrunn (Putzbrunner Straße). Entweder ist eine Verknüpfung an der Haltestelle „Werner-Heisenberg-Weg" (etwas problematischer Verkehrsraum) herzustellen, oder besser noch, eine neue „Ortsbuslinie" zwischen Neubiberg/Ottobrunn/Hohenbrunn einzurichten. Die Planungen müssen zusammen mit den Nachbargemeinden erfolgen. Als realistischer Planungszeitraum wird angesehen, dass ein Betrieb zum Fahrplan 2005 beginnen kann. * Stellungnahme des MVV, Herr Dosch Der MVV bearbeitet derzeit Überlegungen eine sinnvolle Ergänzung der Linie 210 anbieten zu können, um den Ortsbereich Neubiberg mit Neuperlach Süd U/S und Ottobrunn zu verknüpfen. Wie im Gespräch mit dem MVV, der Gemeinde Neubiberg und Herrn Dr. Kieslich besprochen, käme eine Verdichtung und Betriebszeitenerweiterung der Linie 211 und 212 in Betracht. Der derzeitige Planungsstand reicht aber noch nicht zu einer aussagekräftigen Prognose aus. Herr Dosch spricht sich nach jetzigem Planungsstand für einen weiteren Betrieb der Buslinie 210 auf dem jetzigen Linienweg aus. Erst wenn eine sinnvolle Alternative in Betrieb geht, sollte die Auflassung der Haltestelle beschlossen werden. Ein unterschiedlicher Linienweg zu verschiedenen Tageszeiten wird vom MVV abgelehnt. Der MVV ist jedoch nach wie vor der Meinung, dass die Route durch die Prof.-Messerschmitt-Straße die zu bevorzugende Linienführung ist. Selbst bei einer Neuplanung der Linie – so Herr Dosch – würde der MVV den Fahrtweg so festlegen. Datenauswertung und Konzept: Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Kieslich Fazit: Eine Planung für einen Ortsbus erscheint derzeit als sinnvolle Lösung. Favorisiert werden sollte die von Herrn Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Kieslich angesprochene Verknüpfung zwischen Ottobrunn/Hohenbrunn, Neubiberg und Neuperlach Süd U/S durch Taktverdichtung bestehender Linien oder einer gänzlich neuen Buslinie. Die Planungen des MVV sind abzuwarten. Im folgenden sind Gespräche mit den Nachbargemeinden zu führen. Nur wenn MVV und Nachbargemeinden „mit ins Boot" genommen werden können ist davon auszugehen, dass eine finanzierbare Lösung gefunden werden kann. Eventuell kommt auch eine Kostenbeteiligung durch die Fa. Demos in Betracht. Eine zu rasche Entscheidung über die Linienführung der Buslinie 210 wird als kritisch angesehen. Datenauswertung und Konzept: Dr.-Ing. Wolfgang Kieslich Haltestellenbefragung durch die Gemeinde Neubiberg: Am 25. und 26. April führte die Gemeinde Neubiberg eine Haltestellenbefragung und eine Zählung der Ein- und Aussteiger an der Haltestelle „Rosenheimer Landstraße" durch.

La NewsLetter a quota Mille TuttoWeb HF BAND PLAN rev.: 5.0 The Ohio/Penn Dx Bulletin APPUNTI SULLE ONDE LUNGHE NOVICE AREA la NewsLetter è un messaggio aperiodico informativo interno trasmesso da: A.R.I. Associazione Radioamatori Italiani – Sezione di Milano ai radioamatori che ne fanno esplicita richiesta Per riceverla a mezzo e-mail scrivi a firstname.lastname@example.org - Arretrati su http://www.arimi.it © NewsLetter – MMIV Le mille e una NL Con questo Fondoscala intendo per una volta essere serio e farci i complimenti. Chi si loda s’imbroda, dicevano i saggi, ma per una volta lasciate che sia. Il motivo? La nostra NewsLetter ha raggiunto e superato i 1.000 invii. Per la precisione, sono 900 le mail spedite e più di 100 i download richiesti al server che ci ospita. Ogni volta. Mille dunque, mille radioamatori, mille amici, appassionati che ci seguono, incoraggiano, criticano costruttivamente. Credo che mai, Tibor, IK2SAI, inventore di NL, avrebbe pensato di giungere a questo risultato. Per non parlare di quello ottenuto sul mensile Radio Kit Elettronica, che tutti i mesi pubblica un nostro Digest per tutti coloro che la posta elettronica non la utilizzano. Pensate che durante l’ultimo Radiant di Novegro abbiamo anche approntato uno stand, e c’era gente che esclamava stupita: “Guarda, lo stand di NL!” Neppure si trattasse di CQ Amateur Radio. (Magari direttore, ma in quel caso vorrei almeno tre ragazze mozzafiato vestite da conigliette, e non Lei, col nasone, a dar via le copie stampate…) E’ un risultato fantastico, soprattutto considerando che NL è fatta per hobby e per cercare di rendere più unita la sezione ARI più grande d’Italia, quella di Milano, i cui soci, purtroppo, si riescono a vedere quasi tutti insieme soltanto in occasione della tradizionale panetonata natalizia. Poco incline alla politica, questi 700 kilobites “punto pdf” vogliono essere una voce unica, non in concorrenza con le testate, una voce indipendente perché non mantenuta dalla pubblicità. Del resto, la “Redazione” di NL (che chiamiamo abitualmente NL Crew, ovvero l’equipaggio di NL), soprattutto in questo ultimo anno ha fatto soltanto ciò che poteva, nei ritagli di tempo. E vi assicuro che talvolta non è facile. Continuate quindi a scriverci, a seguirci e a criticarci, perché tutto ciò è per noi ossigeno, e alimenta la voglia di fare. Nel nostro piccolo NL cerca di spezzare alcuni “tabù” del panorama editoriale dedicato al radiantismo, come pubblicare i prezzi delle apparecchiature (guardate invece le riviste inglesi o americane), oppure farle vedere in grande, oppure ancora pubblicare dei mini-reportage sui saloni, ai quali magari non tutti i lettori hanno potuto essere presenti. L’unica cosa che ci rattrista, non per noi ma per tutta l’ARI, è che l’organo ufficiale di informazione dell’Associazione, Radio Rivista, non riporti mai neppure un rigo di questo nostro piccolo fenomeno, che in fondo rappresenta - crediamo - un ottimo esempio di come rendere tutti partecipi della vita associativa. Ma a noi non importa, continueremo così e magari riusciremo a crescere ancora. Voi, intanto, inviateci le vostre idee e state a guardare. Pardon, a leggere. Sergio Barlocchetti, IW2FHF Ripetitori della Sezione Durante questa settimana, sempre che il meteo lo consenta, saranno disattivati l’ultimo ripetitore rimasto sul Pirelli (RU7) ed il digipeater per l’APRS. Siamo a tutt’oggi alla ricerca di locations alternative ma nel frattempo, per dare comunque un servizio minimo di copertura per le stazioni portatili e mobili, sarà reso operativo il sistema in UHF dalla Sede della Sezione. L’impianto VHF è in assistenza tecnica e nel momento in cui sarà ripristinato sarà riacceso immediatamente (anch’esso dalla Sezione se per tale data, ancora non sarà stata individuata una postazione valida). Per quanto riguarda l’APRS saranno condotti dei test per verificare l’utilità dell’impianto situato in Sede. Tra una NL e l’altra, per le ultimissime, visitate IW2NKE, 144.975 @ 1200 bps Packet, pagina Info Vogliamo ringraziare Stefano IK2QEI e Bob I2WIJ, due dei nostri Soci più attivi nel campo Contest - Xpeditions per la bella serata che ci hanno saputo regalare martedì 17 presso la nostra Sede. Le loro riflessioni sull’organizzazione tecnica e logistica sono state di sicuro interesse e sentire le operazioni registrate sul PC ha fatto rinascere in noi immediatamente la voglia di contest…solo parzialmente sopita dalle vicissitudini occorse nel recentissimo WPX RTTY. Grazie dunque Stefano e Bob e… un in bocca al lupo a Stefano e Matt, IK2SGC che sappiamo stanno per partecipare (alla grande) al prossimo WPX fonia… già, ma da dove?? Beh, vi conviene accendere la radio l’ultimo weekend di marzo. Non potrete mancarli. Quello che purtroppo abbiamo notato è stato il ridotto numero di OM intervenuti a questa serata. Così come irrisoria è la partecipazione ai contest da parte del corpo sociale e a tutte le iniziative di qualunque tipo esse siano. Avremmo piacere, a questo punto, avere qualche indicazione da parte vostra. Cosa vorreste che si organizzasse? E’ possibile per voi pensare che la Sezione sia il semplice luogo dove andare a portare le QSL al martedì sera? Non vi interessa altro? Avete una idea? Per favore fateci sapere la vostra! email@example.com Con l’obiettivo di implementare il maggior numero di informazioni utili sulla chart del Band Plan HF, la Sezione ha rilasciato la revisione 5.0 dei famosi band plan. La revisione 4.xx è stata scaricata un numero prossimo alle 700 volte nell’arco di 45 giorni. Oggi usciamo, per le HF, con la 5.0. Sono, come sempre, gradite le vostre impressioni e correzioni. Buoni dx a tutti! Nel pieno rispetto del Band Plan, s’intende. Il file completo, pronto per il download è su: http://www.arimi.it/rubriche/bandplan.html Ricordiamo ancora a tutti gli amici che ci seguono dalla Lombardia che è stato attivato da GianLeonardo il nodo di accesso alla rete FlexNet in Packet Radio VHF @ 1200 bps. Attraverso questo nodo (Il cui uso è descritto su NL Nr.:116) è possibile raggiungere qualsiasi BBS mondiale in rete nonché qualsiasi nodo Cluster attraverso cui seguire gli spot per il traffico DX. Ancora una volta ricordiamo “l’accordo” con PI5EHV-8 raggiungibile al prompt dopo la connessione con IW2NKE, digitando semplicemente “CL”. Se invece digiteremo “!” potremo accedere ad un servizio informativo che speriamo di poter tenere molto aggiornato mediante il quale potrete essere sempre aggiornati sulle ultimissime dalla Sezione. Non tutti hanno il tempo o le capacità di ricerca sul WEB. Noi abbiamo Gilberto che è un maestro e così, da questa NewsLetter, ogni volta, vi presenteremo alcuni siti degni di nota con cui arricchirvi di informazioni, tenervi aggiornati e magari imparare qualcosa o divertirvi. Non vi fidate delle date dei Contest segnalate da RR http://www.sk3bg.se/contest/cal2004.htm oppure http://home.online.no/~janalme/hammain.htm tanto per non sbagliare. Abbiamo trovato per voi un altro Band Plan IARU Reg. 1 in cui capirete chiaramente quando Vi parlavamo di larghezza di banda permessa presso svessa.se/hf/bandplan2003_en.pdf Naturalmente il Band Plan che vi proponiamo in fondo a questa NL è già comprensivo delle indicazioni aggiuntive. “Volete vedere un altro semplice progetto di tuner per l’FT-817, tutto da nostri amici della Sezione ARI di Saronno presso http://utenti.lycos.it/ARI_SARONNO/Saronno-7.htm Una vera miniera di informazioni: manuali d’uso e service oltre a documentazione tecnica.

Riprovate! Piu' pericoloso, per i vostri dati sensibili, e' il discorso di internet. Grazie al poderoso software dell'omino con gli occhiali i nostri dati e il nostro software non sono sempre al sicuro. Troppi programmi nascondono al loro interno dei piccoli vermiciattoli che alla prima connessione internet.. tac! spediscono all'altro capo del mondo le piu' disparate informazioni. Si passa dalla struttura del vostro disco alla lista dei siti visitati nelle ultime settimane, tutto e' possibile. Rimedi ? Tanti. Efficaci ? Pochi. "Quando ho comperato il computer c'era su un antivirus, pero' l'altro giorno, quando ho riacceso, ho letto una mail e poi non andava piu' niente. Allora ho chiamato il Claudio, che e' venuto da me con un CD, l'ha fatto girare e mi ha trovato 3 virus" "Ma tu, l'antivirus, l'avevi aggiornato ?" "Perche', scade ? Come lo yogurt ?" "No, non scade come lo yogurt ma va aggiornato, altrimenti i virus nuovi non vengono rilevati" "..." Purtroppo la mamma degli imbecilli e' sempre incinta e i virus nascono come funghi. Tenersi aggiornati e' il minimo indispensabile per non rodersi in seguito. Henry Ford disse: "Quello che non c'e' non si rompe". Se va bene per un'automobile non si puo' dire altrettanto di un sistema informatico. Piu' un sistema e' complesso piu' e' fragile. Sta a voi renderlo il meno fragile possibile altrimenti prima o poi vi ritroverete, sconsolati, a raccogliere i cocci. Ed evitate di caricare milioni di cose inutili che non fanno altro che appesantire il sistema operativo zoppo di cui siete probabilmente dotati. Quando sarete pronti a navigare in internet, con computer o con il telefonino, un mondo vi si aprira' davanti. Un mondo fatato e multicolore dove potrete essere chi volete e trovare le informazioni di cui avete bisogno. E non pensate subito al sito della Nasa o a quello di Playboy... sto parlando delle chat. Le chat sono sempre esistite, anche se in questi ultimi anni se ne fa un gran parlare visto che stanno riscuotendo un enorme successo, soprattutto tra i giovanissimi. Il meccanismo e' sempre lo stesso. Ci sono delle stanze virtuali, magari organizzate tematicamente, in cui la gente accede scegliendosi un soprannome o "nickname". Nulla di piu' o nulla di meno, nessuno ha scoperto l'acqua calda. Ogni portale che si rispetti deve avere la sua chat, altrimenti e' out. Per portale intendo un sito che oltre alle informazioni dell'azienda ospitante mostra un mucchio di altre informazioni inutili tipo borsa, meteo, oroscopo, ricette, ultime notizie etc etc etc. Inutili, si. E anche fuorvianti. Provate ad andare sul sito delle Ferrovie dello Stato per cercare l'orario di un treno e guardate quanto in piccolo e' scritto "orario treni" e quanto e' confuso nel bailamme generale. Roba da non credere. Dicevo, dato che in una stanza ci possono essere diverse decine di persone, e dato che ognuno che dice la sua, la prima volta vi scollegherete da internet in preda al mal di testa. (continua) A seguito della pubblicazione di un mio articolo su RadioRivista (Generatore e ponte di resistenza per 136 kHz, RadioRivista 2/99) alcuni Radioamatori mi hanno chiesto di scrivere altri articoli introduttivi sull'argomento onde lunghe, in particolare sulla banda OM dei 136 kHz. Cercherò, tempo permettendo, di accontentare i curiosi (o appassionati) con una serie di articoli. Gli articoli saranno accompagnati da riferimenti a siti Internet dove si possono trovare ulteriori informazioni sugli argomenti che saranno trattati. Classificazione delle onde lunghe. | denominazione | da | pari a | a | pari a | |-------------------|------|--------|------|--------| | onde lunghe | LF | 300 kHz| 1000 metri | 30 kHz | 10 km | | onde lunghissime | VLF | 30 kHz | 10 km | 3 kHz | 100 km | | | ULF | 3 kHz | 100 km | 300 Hz | 1000 km| | | SLF | 300 Hz | 1000 km| 30 Hz | 10000 km| | | ELF | 30 Hz | 10000 km| 3 Hz | 100000 km| La porzione assegnata ai Radioamatori è compresa tra 135.700 kHz e 137.800 kHz. Si tratta di 2.1 kHz, una porzione veramente ridotta, del tutto insufficiente per un solo canale SSB. La lunghezza d'onda è circa 2200 metri. Il traffico Radioamatori si svolge in CW (per QSO locali, qualche centinaio di chilometri) e, per distanze maggiori, usando modi, come il CW lento, che richiedono l'uso di un computer e di una scheda audio. Il programma più semplice da usare, ARGO, è opera di Alberto, I2PHD e Vittorio, IK2CZL. Vedere la bibliografia. Cosa si ascolta. Prima di cimentarsi nella ricezione di Radioamatori è bene impratichirsi ad ascoltare alcune stazioni commerciali presenti in banda con segnali molto forti (50 dB più forti dei nostri segnali). Questo permette di valutare le prestazioni del sistema ricevente (antenna + radio). Ecco alcune frequenze su cui curiosare. | kHz | stazione | località | nazione | note | |-------|----------|------------------|---------|----------------------------------------------------------------------| | 50 | | | | campione di tempo e frequenza | | 60.000| MSF | Teddington Rugby | UK | campione di tempo e frequenza | | 75.000| HBG | Neuchatel | Svizzera| campione di tempo e frequenza | | 77.500| DCF77 | Mainflingen | Germania| campione di tempo e frequenza | | 128.930| DCF49 | Mainflingen | Germania| portante, modulazione FSK (RTTY) ogni 10 secondi circa | | 135.800| SXV | Marathon (KM28AD)| Grecia | FSK (RTTY), non sempre presente | | 138.830| DCF39 | Magdeburg(JO52WG)| Germania| portante, modulazione FSK (RTTY) ogni 10 secondi circa ERP 60 - 100 kW | 150 kHz inizio broadcasting | kHz | stazione | località | nazione | note | |-------|----------|----------|---------|------| | 153.000| ?? | | | | | 171.000| ?? | | | | | 189 | RAI | Caltanissetta | | | | 250 kHz fine broadcasting | | | | | tra 250 e 500 kHz radiofari aeronautici, ripetono il nominativo in telegrafia, portante modulata con tono di 1000 Hz circa Si nota che la porzione di banda a noi assegnata è in parte disturbata dalla stazione SXV. La stazione DCF39 è un utile beacon, quasi sempre presente, molto forte, con frequenza della portante abbastanza precisa. Anche nelle VLF ed oltre sono presenti segnali. Ad esempio da Grimeton (Svezia), ogni anno vengono fatte trasmissioni celebrative con una stazione storica del 1925. Il trasmettitore è un alternatore, potenza 200 kW e frequenza 16.1 kHz (pari a 18.6 km). Le emissioni in CW sono state ricevute in Italia collegando un'antenna alla scheda audio del computer. Vedere il sito http://www.alexander.n.se Sempre con la scheda audio ed antenne adeguate si sono ricevuti segnali di origine non naturale anche a frequenze inferiori (stazioni di radionavigazione russe intorno ai 10 kHz). Chi è interessato ad approfondire l'argomento VLF ed ELF trova ottimi siti Internet facendo la ricerca con GOOGLE. >> Continua 21. Devo avere un'antenna direttiva (beam) per partecipare ai contest? Certamente no, ma aiuterebbe significativamente! Io ho passato il mio primo anno di contest usando solo antenne filari, ho imparato un sacco di cose e mi sono pure molto divertito. So che non sarei neanche vagamente competitivo, in uno dei contest internazionali maggiori, se non avessi almeno un'antenna direttiva tribanda. Ciò detto, non pensate di poter essere competitivi nei vostri primi anni usando delle antenne direttive monobanda accoppiate (stacked), perché non avrete sufficiente esperienza! Quindi pensate che ci sono un sacco di cose da imparare e di cui fare esperienza, col solo fatto di partecipare ai contest, anche senza direttiva! 22. Devo possedere una “antenna farm” per partecipare ai contest? Certamente no, ma anche questo aiuterebbe significativamente! (“Antenna farm”, letteralmente “fattoria con i campi di antenne”). Attualmente, almeno uno dei maggiori contest, il CQ Worked All Prefixes (WPX), ha una categoria per quelle stazioni che sono limitate ad utilizzare una singola direttiva tribanda per i 10, 15 e 20 metri, e antenne a elemento singolo (verticali o dipoli) per le altre bande. In questo modo c’è speranza anche per le cosiddette stazioni “little pistols”. 23. Che cosa è una “little pistol”? Le grandi stazioni multi-multi (multi operatore, multi trasmettitore) High Power sono spesso chiamate “big guns”, letteralmente “grossi cannoni”. Le “little pistols”, cioè le “piccole pistole”, al contrario, sono praticamente tutte le altre comuni stazioni, singolo-operatore low power. 24. Che razza di radio devo possedere per partecipare ad un contest Va bene la radio che usi tutti i giorni! Questo non significa che non ci siano radio che sono migliori di altre per i contest ma, praticamente, qualunque radio andrà bene per cominciare. Se avete intenzione di acquistare una nuova radio per i contest, allora cercatene una con un “robusto” ricevitore, che possa ricevere segnali molto deboli in presenza di segnali molto forti, senza che si generi sovracarico. Le specifiche sul “blocking dynamic range”, “third order intercept” e “phase noise”, che vengono fornite nella maggioranza delle technical review, sono importanti indicatori per questo aspetto. Esempio di radio con un ricevitore “robusto” sono il Kenwood TS-850S, lo Yaesu FT-1000MP, l’Icom IC756PRO, il K2 Elecraft e il Ten Tec Orion. Per il contest in CW, il full-break-in o (QSK), è spesso un “must”. La capacità di poter interfacciare l’apparato al computer, in modo che il programma di gestione contest possa leggere automaticamente frequenza/banda e modo operativo è un’altra caratteristica utile, che si trova ormai in tutti i moderni apparati. Un vero e proprio “secondo” ricevitore (non solo un doppio VFO) sarebbe anche molto utile, benché questa caratteristica la ritrovi solo negli apparati al top della gamma e (generalmente) molto costosi. 25. Ho un budget limitato. Dove è preferibile impiegarlo Supponendo che tu abbia già una stazione base, suggerirei di comprare per prima cosa un computer (che non deve necessariamente essere nuovo, specialmente se ti trovi bene anche con il MS-DOS) per il programma di logging; quindi migliora le tue antenne; quindi migliora il tuo apparato radio se necessario e lascia il lineare per ultimo visto che la maggioranza dei contest hanno la categoria 100W. Se prevedi di fare contest CW, allora puoi ultimamente investire in un filtro stretto (250Hz o 500Hz massimo) per la tua attuale radio nel frattempo, anche se hai in piano di comprare una nuova radio nel giro di un anno o due. Certo ci sono anche altre opinioni in proposito, ma questa linea di sviluppo della stazione è senza dubbio sensata. Cari amici, visto l'interesse destato dalla "rubrica" aperta da Bob, a proposito di cose utili per chi non sa già tutto di tutto..., con questa mail si amplia l'area Novice alle tecniche digitali di ricetrasmissione. Si tratta di un nostro "vecchio pallino"... molti di voi avranno avuto modo di dare un'occhiata al manuale sul PSK31 che ormai tre anni fa ha – speriamo – dato qualche utile indicazione per iniziare l'attività radio digitale. Molti di noi si sono specializzati in queste tecniche, nuovi modi sono nati. Chiunque però ha a cuore il nostro hobby... il nostro mondo deve ricordarsi sempre di voltarsi, ogni tanto in dietro, per vedere se qualcuno, desideroso di iniziare l'attività, ha bisogno d'aiuto. Ecco dunque che il contributo di Claudio Miotto, IZ2BVJ assume particolare valore. Egli ci guiderà in una rapida overview di yutti i modi digitali vecchi e nuovi che potremmo adoperare attraverso la scheda audio del nostro personal computer. Il "lavoro" di Claudio sarà completato con una splendida realizzazione di interfaccia da lui progettata e costruita in modo magnifico che siamo certi molti di voi vorranno replicare. In questa NL iniziamo a parlare di RTTY... seguiteci e inviate i vostri commenti a firstname.lastname@example.org 73 e buoni dx de Tibor, IK2SAI Elenco dei principali sistemi di trasmissione in forma digitale ad uso radiantistico. Ad una breve descrizione dei rispettivi metodi di trasmissione, seguirà la rappresentazione grafica del segnale mediante "Waterfall". I segnali illustrati sono stati ottenuti tramite l'uso di un computer dotato di scheda audio e di un programma necessario alla loro decodifica. RTTY L'RTTY è un sistema di trasmissione che si avvale di due frequenze, una chiamata Mark di valore più alto e l'altra chiamata Space più bassa. È possibile operare in due modi: FSK o AFSK. Nel primo caso (FSK) il trasmettitore incrementa la frequenza quando invia un Mark e la riduce per uno Space. Nel secondo caso (AFSK) vengono prodotti due toni audio che inviati al trasmettitore verranno irradiati come Mark quello più acuto e come Space quello più grave. In ricezione il risultato è simile dato che i due toni audio vengono comunque decodificati per ottenere l'informazione finale. In campo radioamatoriale la differenza tra i due valori è di 170 Hz e viene utilizzata la banda laterale inferiore LSB. Generalmente i programmi che operano in questo modo prevedono la possibilità di scelta sia della frequenza di shift che della banda laterale. Come si può notare nella "Waterfall" raffigurata sotto, il segnale RTTY si presenta sotto forma di due linee parallele distanziate di 170 Hz. Per aiutare la sintonizzazione da parte della stazione ricevente, l'operatore RTTY può trasmettere una serie di caratteri RYRYRYRYRY prima di iniziare l'invio del messaggio vero e proprio. In questo modo si crea un'alternanza simmetrica dei toni Mark e Space, che rende più nitide le tracce rappresentate sulla "Waterfall". L'RTTY non è comunque un sistema esente da errori. **Legenda:** - Telegrafia (CW) - Fonia (SSB) - Fonia (FM) - Modi digitali (*) - Contest subband *Modi digitali:* Fax, SSTV, RTTY, PSK31, PACKET, MGM **MLB indica:** Massima Larghezza di Banda ammessa in trasmissione nel segmento di gamma considerato **LW (137 kHz)** | Frequenza | Modo | Intervallo | |-----------|------|------------| | 135,7 - 136 kHz | Stazioni Test, CW QRSS | 135,7 - 137,8 kHz QRSS centrata su 136,7 | | 135,7 - 137,8 kHz | PSK31: 3579 kHz – RTTY: 3584 ± 4 kHz e 3610 ± 10 kHz – AMTOR: 3588 kHz – PACKET: 3595 ± 5 kHz | 3500 - 3800 kHz | | 7000 - 7100 kHz | PSK31: 7036 kHz – RTTY, FAX, SSTV: 7040 ± 5 kHz QRP CW: 7030 ± 1 kHz – QRP fonia: 7000 ± 1 kHz | 7000 - 7035 kHz @ 200 Hz; 7035-7040 kHz @ 500 Hz; 7040-70100 @ 2700 Hz | Convenzionalmente, nelle gamme al di sotto dei 10000 kHz in SSB si adopera il modo LSB.

Immunologia del "long COVID" Ora questa non è la fine. Non è nemmeno l'inizio della fine. Ma è, forse, la fine dell'inizio. Winston Churchill Ora è finalmente chiaro. In una percentuale significativa di sopravvissuti COVID-19 può portare a malattie a lungo termine, spesso rubricate come sindrome di long Covid o PASC ,sequele postacute dell'infezione da SARS-CoV-2. Tuttavia non vi è ancora un "consenso universale" nella definizione di PASC. I Centri americani per il controllo e la prevenzione delle malattie definiscono questa condizione come una sindrome che presenta un'ampia gamma di problemi di salute nuovi, ricorrenti o in corso che le persone sperimentano dopo 4 o più settimane dall'infezione primaria da SARS-CoV -2. Al contrario, l'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità la ritiene una condizione che si manifesta in persone con infezione da SARS-CoV-2 confermata o probabile, di solito a 3 mesi dall'inizio del COVID-19 con sintomi e che dura almeno 2 mesi e non può essere spiegata da una diagnosi alternativa. Una revisione sistematica del Department of Surgery, Penn State College of Medicine and Milton Pennsylvania di 57 studi sottoposti a revisione paritaria di 250.351 sopravvissuti a COVID-19 che soddisfacevano i criteri di inclusione per PASC, ha riportato che l'età media dei pazienti era di 54,4 anni, il 56% (maschi) e che il 79% era ricoverato in ospedale durante COVID-19 acuto. A 6 mesi, il 54% dei sopravvissuti presentava almeno un sintomo PASC. I sopravvissuti al COVID-19 non ospedalizzati, che hanno sviluppato PASC, erano principalmente donne di mezza età. In un sondaggio del Department of Medical Endocrinology and Metabolism, del Copenhagen University Hospital Copenhagen, su 445 pazienti COVID-19 non ospedalizzati, i sintomi persistenti, più comuni quali affaticamento e difficoltà di memoria e concentrazione, sono stati segnalati dal 36% dei partecipanti sintomatici con un follow-up di > 4 settimane. (Groff D 2021) Aspetti immunobiologici Le principali ipotesi poatogenetiche - virus persistenti o antigeni virali e RNA nei tessuti coinvolti nell'infiammazione cronica - l'innesco di una condizione autoimmune post virale - disbiosi del microbioma o del viroma tessutali Nei mesi successivi all'infezione le proteine virali SARS-CoV-2 e/o l'RNA sono state evidenziate nei sistemi respiratori, cardiaci, renale e riproduttivo, nonché nel cervello, nei muscoli, negli occhi nel tratto gastrointestinale e principalmente nei linfonodi. Durante le fasi iniziali e tardive della malattia una stimolazione immunitaria innata "aberrante" è associata al PASC insieme ad alti livelli di citochine infiammatorie, tra cui IL-6, TNF-α e IL-1β. In uno studio del The Kirby Institute, University dell'Università di Sydney l'IFN-β e l'IFN-λ1 rimangono elevati 8 mesi dopo l'infezione nei pazienti con PASC rispetto ai controlli recuperati. Inoltre, le combinazioni di IFN-β, PTX3, IFN-γ, IFN-λ2/3 e IL-6 sono state associate al PASC con una precisione variabile dal 78,5 al 81,6% (Phetsouphanh C 2022) Un'indagine multiomica longitudinale su 309 pazienti COVID-19 (71% ricoverati in ospedale) dalla diagnosi iniziale a 2-3 mesi sono stati identificati quattro fattori di rischio che anticipano la PASC al momento della diagnosi iniziale di COVID-19: diabete di tipo 2, SARS- CoV-2 RNAemia, viremia del virus di Epstein-Barr eautoAbs Le risposte immunitarie adattive a SARS-CoV-2 sono state esaminate in PASC rispetto a individui convalescenti non PASC. Studi su individui con COVID-19 confermato con o senza PASC non hanno riscontrato differenze nei livelli di anticorpi anti-S durante gli 8 mesi di studio e nessuna differenza nel valore iniziale della PCR Ct per l'RNA virale. Questi studi suggeriscono una possibile persistenza di antigeni virali che guidano la stimolazione immunitaria. In particolare autoAbs sono stati rilevati nel COVID-19 acuto e stanno emergendo prove che questi, al momento della diagnosi, erano correlati al PASC . Uno studio del Experimental and Clinical Research Center, Charité Campus Buch, Max-Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine, Berlin, su 31 pazienti affetti da diversi sintomi PASC, inclusi sintomi neurologici e cardiovascolari, ha rivelato che in tutti i 31 pazienti la presenza da 2 a 7 diversi autoAbs GPCR-funzionali (fAAbs), che agiscono come agonisti dei recettori. Alcuni di questi GPCRfAAB hanno attivato i loro recettori bersaglio, causando un effetto cronotropo positivo nei cardiomiociti di ratto neonatale, mentre altri hanno causato un effetto cronotropo negativo (Wallukat G, 20219) Il Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, di Harvard ha dimostrato che AutoAbs verso i GPCR sono associati a numerose malattie del sistema cardiovascolare, polmonare e nervoso centrale, oltre a determinare condizioni autoimmuni possono svolgere un ruolo patologico nella mediazione dei sintomi correlati alla PASC (Skiba MA, 2021) Effetto vaccinazione Risultati emergenti suggeriscono che i vaccini anti COVID-19 possono avere un effetto sui sintomi PASC in un sottoinsieme di individui. Uno studio caso-controllo prospettico che utilizzava dati auto-riferiti ha rilevato che due dosi di vaccini prima dell'infezione da SARS-CoV-2 ( n = 906) riducevano il rischio di sintomi prolungati dopo 28 giorni rispetto ai controlli abbinati non vaccinati ( n = 906) (Antonelli M, 2022) Conclusioni Al momento non è chiaro come esattamente il vaccino prevenga o influenzi il PASC. È possibile che i linfociti T e Abs anti-S provocati dai vaccini promuovano la clearance degli antigeni residui o delle particelle virali, eliminando la causa dell'infiammazione cronica. È anche possibile che le citochine indotte dal vaccino agiscano sui linfociti autoreattivi e interrompano la produzione di citochine patogene o addirittura riprogrammano i linfociti patogeni. E' intuibile come la valutazione delle risposte immunitarie nei pazienti con PASC ai vaccini è necessaria e indispensabile per definire un possibile meccanismo di protezione ad oggi completamente sconosciuto.

Confusione è la parola utilizzata per indicare un ordine che non si capisce. Spesso chiamiamo confusione anche il timore di prendere una decisione o di assumere una posizione. Voler eliminare la confusione e accettare una risposta solo perché è troppo spaventoso non avere una risposta è un buon modo per ottenere la risposta sbagliata.

Significant 7 km long magnetic anomaly outlined at Watheroo, Namban Project Highlights - Large magnetic anomaly prospective for Ni-Cu identified - 7 km x 3 km in area - 50m spaced magnetic survey highlights three principal magnetic zones striking NNW - Magnetic Zones correspond to Government mapped mafic rocks also extend under cover. - Systematic geochemical sampling to commence Dalaroo Metals Ltd (“ASX: DAL “Dalaroo” or “Company”) is pleased to announce results from its recent drone (“UAV”) magnetic survey at its Watheroo Anomaly within the Namban Project in Western Australia’s wheatbelt region. (Figure 1). The UAV survey was completed using 50m line spacing and 30m ground clearance with lines flown east-west for a total 768 line km. This survey has outlined a very prominent 7 km long by 3 km wide lensoid magnetic anomaly considered to represent a mafic intrusive and thought to be a “Chonolith” prospective for Ni-Cu deposits. The survey results highlight three principal magnetic zones striking NNW, with the magnetic intensity decreasing towards the west, suggesting a plunge or stepped offset of the intrusion in that direction. The most prominent magnetic feature is located on the eastern boundary of the mafic intrusion, where it extends for over 4km of strike and the central magnetic feature extends over 2.5km. A strong magnetic trend along the western margin has a sinuous appearance and may represent a palaeochannel. The magnetic zones correspond to mapped mafic intrusive rocks on the Geological Survey of Western Australia map (1:250,000 Moora sheet)¹ of indeterminate Precambrian age and also extend under recent cover. “We are very excited our new detailed drone survey has outlined a very strong magnetic anomaly with dimensions of 7 km long and 3 km wide. Several initial areas of interest have been defined which are recommended for follow up investigation. Initial review of the UAV survey results indicates significant improvement in magnetic resolution that can provide a detailed geological and structural interpretation for targeting of ground follow-up-works such as geochemical sampling and future drilling.” said Harjinder Kehal, Managing Director of Dalaroo Metals. Figure 1: Namban Project Location and competitor map Figure 2: Watheroo 7km X 3km magnetic anomaly identified from UAV drone 50m spaced airborne magnetics survey Next Steps Dalaroo proposes to undertake systematic geochemical sampling over the prominent 7 km long by 3 km wide magnetic anomaly considered to represent a mafic intrusive and thought to be a “Chonolith” prospective for Ni-Cu deposits. Dependent on receiving positive results from geochemical sampling, AC or RC drilling and ground geophysical surveys, such as EM, will be planned.

The annual report serves the purposes of both a trustees’ report, and a directors’ report under company law. The academy trust was established in 2011 under the multi academy trust set of governing documents. The academy trust operates a single school for pupils aged 7 to 11 serving a catchment area in Sevenoaks, Kent. It has a pupil capacity of 384 and had a roll of 383 in the school census in May 2023. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Constitution The academy trust is a company limited by guarantee and an exempt charity. The articles of association are the primary governing documents of the academy trust. The trustees of Amherst School (Academy) Trust are also the directors of the academy trust for the purposes of company law. The charitable company operates as Amherst School. Details of the trustees who served during the year, and to the date these accounts are approved are included in the ‘reference and administrative details’ on page 1. Members’ liability Each member of the academy trust undertakes to contribute to the assets of the charitable company in the event of it being wound up while they are a member, or within one year after they cease to be a member, such amount as may be required, not exceeding £10, for the debts and liabilities contracted before they ceased to be a member. Trustees’ indemnities The academy trust maintains trustees’ and officers’ liability insurance which gives appropriate cover for any legal action brought against its trustees. The academy trust has also granted indemnities to each of its trustees and other officers to the extent permitted by law. There are no third-party indemnity provisions to disclose. Details of the insurance cover are provided in note 13 to the financial statements. Method of recruitment and appointment or election of trustees All trustees are directors of the academy trust and vice versa. The members of the academy are listed in the ‘reference and administrative details’ on page 1. Two current members of the academy are also trustees. Trustees are appointed in accordance with the articles of association. As at the reference date, the academy had the following trustees: | Type of trustee | Current position | |------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Trustees appointed by the Members under Article 50 | Nine trustees including two Members | | Elected staff trustees appointed under Article 50A | Three elected staff trustees | | The Chief Executive Officer under Article 57 | The Headteacher is a trustee by virtue of this office | | A minimum of two elected parent trustees appointed under Article 53 | Four elected parent trustees | Trustees are appointed for a four year term, save the Headteacher who is a trustee by virtue of office as Chief Executive Officer of the academy and will remain in post for its duration. In the event that more than one candidate is nominated for a vacant staff or parent trustee post, an election is held and the successful candidate is the person to receive the most votes. At the end of a trustee’s term, if eligible, they may stand for re-election and, if re-elected, sit for a further term. **Policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of trustees** The training and induction provided for new trustees is dependent on their existing experience. All newly appointed and elected trustees meet with the Headteacher, Chair and Vice Chair and participate in meetings from the date of their appointment. Trustees are invited to attend the full range of sub-committees before deciding which sub-committee(s) they will serve on. The existing trustees work alongside newly appointed trustees to ensure they are best able to utilise their experience and skills, taking into account their areas of interest, time available and committee requirements. Trustees may also assume individual roles, for example for statutory responsibilities or other functions deemed appropriate (such as year group governor, or subject governor). New trustees are provided with electronic access to a full range of academy governance documentation to assist them in their role. This is held online in a dedicated, password protected area. They are encouraged to attend an induction course provided by The Education People or, if numbers make it viable, a bespoke course for the academy run by the same external provider. Further training is provided as required, both in house and through The Education People. Trustees are encouraged to visit Amherst outside of committee meetings to meet staff and to become familiar with the school. **Organisational structure** The trustees appoint and delegate the operational management of the Trust to the Headteacher, who is responsible for the day-to-day running of the school and is also the academy’s Accounting Officer. The Headteacher is supported in this executive role by the Senior Management Team. The trustees have adopted the committee model of governance. The full governing body usually meets four times per year, once per seasonal term and following the academy’s Annual General Meeting in June. The trustees currently have the following sub-committees: - Teaching & Learning (meets once per seasonal term) - Staff & Pupil Welfare (meets once per seasonal term) - Finance & Buildings (meets once per seasonal term and at the end of the academic year to consider the budget plans for the following three year period). - Pay & Performance (whose purpose and procedures are described in the next section). The Chair, Vice Chair and Headteacher meet fortnightly during term time to discuss and manage strategic and significant operational matters. **Arrangements for setting pay and remuneration of key management personnel** The salaries of the Headteacher and other members of the Senior Management Team are set in accordance with the school’s Pay and Reward Policy. The Headteacher’s performance management takes place annually and is carried out by a panel of two trustees in conjunction with an external advisor. Depending on the outcome of the performance management, the panel may propose that the Headteacher’s salary is increased. The performance management of the Assistant Headteacher, Business Manager and other teaching staff who are members of the Senior Management Team is conducted by the Headteacher annually who makes a recommendation regarding pay in accordance with national or Kent Scheme pay scales as appropriate. The Pay & Performance Committee is convened to consider and decide upon any pay proposal arising from the Headteacher’s performance management as well as recommendations from the Headteacher for adjustments in teaching staff pay over and above the natural annual progression along the Main and Upper Pay Scales. Total remuneration paid to senior management personnel is set out in note 11 (d). **Trade Union facility time** The trust did not have any staff serving as a relevant union official and so no employed time was spent on such facility matters. **Related parties and other connected charities and organisations** The academy has connections to the following: - Amherst School Fund, a registered charity established on 4 November 2012 with Charity Number 1095639, that was closed on 31 July 2023; - Amherst School P T A, a registered charity established on 15 October 1990 with Charity Number 1002301; and - Sevenoaks Partnership of Primary Schools, a consortium of 27 member primary schools in the Sevenoaks area. Amherst School is one of the member schools that contributes to and benefits from the partnership. On 25 September 2019, the partnership formed a Charitable Incorporated Organisation with Charity Number 1185497. The trustees are drawn from the local community and may have ties to local public and private sector organisations. Because of the nature of the academy’s operations, on occasion, transactions may be considered or may take place with organisations in which a trustee has an interest. **OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES** **Objects and aims** The principal object of the academy trust is to advance education for the public benefit by maintaining, carrying on, managing and developing the academy and offering a broad and balanced curriculum. Amherst School’s purpose is to inspire every pupil to: - be their best and fulfil their potential in all aspects of school life; - develop individual talents and passions; - explore, innovate, enjoy and excel inside and outside the classroom; - make a positive contribution for themselves, family and friends to the school, our local community and the wider world; and - be healthy and stay safe. Amherst educates pupils between the ages of 7 and 11 and provides a caring, nurturing environment to enable every pupil to develop into a rounded, confident individual, well prepared for transition to secondary education and beyond. We also foster excellent relationships with Riverhead Infants’ School (our feeder school) and local secondary schools to assist transition processes. At Amherst, we have six values and six simple school rules attached to each value: | Value | Description | |-------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Trust | We act responsibly and honestly to earn the trust of each other at Amherst | | Kindness | We treat everybody and everything with care and respect at Amherst | | Determination | We work hard to do our best even when things are difficult | | Politeness | We are well-mannered and courteous towards everyone at Amherst | | Fairness | We treat everyone as our equal(s) at Amherst School | | Co-operation | We all work together to include each other as a team at Amherst | Our exceptionally dedicated staff support every student in all areas of their education. An atmosphere of mutual respect means students feel they are able to approach staff with any concerns they may have. Assemblies and class discussions are themed where appropriate to teach and reinforce our values and rules. Good behaviour receives positive reinforcement through House Points, verbal praise, Headteacher Awards and Star of the Week (celebrated in Friday’s Achievement Assembly). We also use a Buddy System which includes each Year 6 child paired with a Year 3 child. This system helps promote the Year 6 children as role models and provides them with additional opportunities to practise the school values and rules. **Objectives, strategies and activities** Amherst recognises that every child is a unique individual and provides class, small group and individualised teaching to encourage all pupils to fulfil their academic potential. Pupils are also given opportunities beyond the curriculum in creative arts, sport, hobbies, drama and music to allow them to experience success and to discover their passions and strengths. Amherst’s large number of varied clubs run by staff, parents and outside providers further supports this. Key objectives for the academic year 2022/23 were: - To review and improve medium term planning in foundation subjects to ensure content selected to teach is precise, and clear progression from Years 3 to 6 is achieved. - Use of four key questions/skills/knowledge in each foundation subject unit to help assess children’s retrieval and retention of skills and knowledge taught. - To improve the outdoor environment to enhance the children’s experience and development during playtime, lunchtime and curriculum time. Our additional focus areas for the academic year 2022/23 were: - To research and implement a new science curriculum. - SEND pupils make expected progress in reading, writing and maths. - To ensure all teaching and learning is Good or better. - Effective use of Lexia to raise standards in spelling and reading. - Progress in writing same or above national average. - High expectations for pupil progress in English and Maths in all year groups. - Introduction of Safeguard My School as a digital safeguarding platform. - To ensure the School Council are actively involved in leading improvements in school and raising money for charities. - To ensure each house captain is actively engaged in leading inter-house tournaments throughout the year. - Introduction of lunchtime Play Leaders. - Develop further support and strategies to help children self-regulate. Increase our capacity to support children’s increasing challenging behaviour. - Enable effective Integration of Jubilee building. - Increased use of the school library to promote reading for pleasure. - To enable all subject leaders to observe their subject in action regularly to help monitor the implementation and impact of their subject. - Positive relationship with new head at Riverhead developed and maintained. - To research the impact of either expanding Amherst School MAT with other local schools or joining an existing high performing MAT. - Coaching for all year group leaders. Amherst has continued its collaborative activities with other district schools (The Sevenoaks Schools’ Partnership) during the academic year. **Public benefit** In setting our objectives and planning Amherst School’s activities, the trustees have carefully considered the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. STRATEGIC REPORT Achievements and performance Amherst is in its eleventh year of operation as an Academy and continues to, on average, attract the numbers of students forecast prior to conversion to Academy status. Total students as of 31 August 2023 numbered 383. Key performance indicators - Pupil numbers As funding is based on pupil numbers, a key performance indicator is that the academy is normally oversubscribed, with a waiting list. The small number of spaces at the end of the academic year are due to Amherst School having a larger intake than its feeder school. Past experience suggests that these spaces are likely to generally fill over the course of the next academic year. - Financial indicators The academy uses a number of financial key performance indicators to monitor the financial success of the trust. Staff costs are a key ratio and the table below shows staff costs as a percentage of total expenditure (before depreciation), revenue income and total income. The percentages are within acceptable ranges - traditionally staff costs above 80% of total expenditure are considered to be high (per the DfE ‘top 10 planning checks for governors’). | | 2023 | 2022 | |--------------------------------|-------|-------| | Staff costs as % of total expenditure \(^1\) | 75.4 | 76.5 | | Staff costs \(^1\) as % of revenue income | 76.6 | 80.3 | | Staff costs \(^1\) as % of total income | 75.5 | 74.1 | \(^1\) FRS 102 LGPS defined benefit costs of £37k are excluded from both salary costs and total expenditure since these are a non-cash accounting adjustment for the purposes of the statutory accounts. Key Stage 2 Results Key Stage 2 SATS exams were sat in May 2023. The results are set out below. | Subject | Amherst School 2023 | National Average 2023 | |----------------------------------------------|---------------------|-----------------------| | Combined Reading, Writing & Maths % | | | | Expected Standard | 81 | 59 | | Higher Standard | 20 | 8 | | Reading % | | | | Expected Standard | 90 | 73 | | Higher Standard | 50 | 29 | | Writing % | | | | Expected Standard | 86 | 71 | | Higher Standard | 24 | 13 | | Grammar, Punctuation & Spelling % | | | | Expected Standard | 88 | 72 | | Higher Standard | 40 | 30 | | Mathematics % | | | | Expected Standard | 89 | 73 | | Higher Standard | 56 | 24 | This cohort achieved well above average for attainment in all areas when comparing results to the National Data and will be well positioned for transition to secondary school. These pupils were impacted by the COVID-19 school closures in Y3 and Y4, and these results suggest that the strategies in place to minimise and mitigate the impact on their academic achievement have been successful. Trustees' report For the year ended 31 August 2023 Ofsted Ofsted most recently inspected Amherst on 10 and 11 May 2022. The school retained its overall good rating and was judged outstanding for behaviour and attitudes and for personal development. The Headteacher and trustees maintain the School Self-Evaluation which records achievements and metrics and documents an internal assessment of the performance of Amherst as a school and its pupils. The Headteacher, senior leaders and subject leaders monitor the standard of teaching and learning throughout the school using a range of monitoring strategies to ensure that the teaching is consistently good or better. Feedback from Ofsted has helped inform the school’s key objectives, with a particular investment in further developing Amherst’s curriculum and assessment in foundation subjects. School effectiveness This year has seen the opening of the Jubilee Building, which the Amherst community supported and raised funds for as part of the Grand Designs Project. The Jubilee Building has given a permanent home to the popular breakfast and after school clubs, as well as providing much needed break-out space during the school day. It is a success that is down to the hard work of so many people and the Trustees would like to thank everyone who played a part in bringing to life this project, which will benefit generations of Amherst pupils. The PTA remains hard at work, and is currently raising funds to develop the outdoor space, another important project that will be to the long-term benefit of Amherst children. The Trustees would like to thank staff, pupils and the PTA for their hard work so far in getting this project started and we look forward to taking it forward over the coming months. This year’s whole school book projects were based around *Child of St Kilda* by Beth Waters and *Flotsam* by David Wiesner, and pupils produced high quality art and written work, which was on display around the school. July’s summer performance was *Oliver!* and saw the whole school coming together to rehearse and perform. Community events such as the PTA Christmas Bazaar and Summer BBQ have been appreciated all the more after their absence during the pandemic, alongside a full range of school trips and extra-curricular opportunities, the ever popular BHF charity swim and the Coronation celebrations. Significant investment is being made in curricular development for foundation subjects at Amherst. This is a strategic priority and Year Group Leaders and subject leaders are producing comprehensive medium term planning to ensure precise content and clear progression across pupils’ Amherst journey. Trustees are pleased with the progress that has been made in the first year of this two-year project and would like to thank middle leadership for their hard work and dedication, and to all staff for embracing the changes with such enthusiasm. This year’s adoption of Safeguard My School as a new digital safeguarding system has been successful, with staff using the new system with confidence. Efforts are ongoing to embed and refine effective use of the platform to optimise use of the system. Going Concern After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the academy trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Statement of Accounting Policies. Financial Review and performance Most of the academy’s income is obtained from the Department for Education via the Education & Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) in the form of recurrent grants, the use of which is restricted to particular purposes. The grants received from the ESFA during the year ended 31 August 2023 and the associated expenditure are shown as restricted funds in the Statement of Financial Activities (“SoFA”). Core grant income has been supplemented by capital funding, together with self-generated income such as from before and after schools clubs and donations. Total income for the year was £2.4m, up slightly on £2.32m in the previous year. Within this total is a rise in funding for educational activities from £1.96m to £1.13m as shown in note 6. The main increases were in respect of School Supplementary Grant and Local Authority SEN funding. The incoming resources for the year have not been sufficient to cover total resources expended of £2.45m, resulting in net expenditure for the year of £48k (2022 - £160k), as shown on the SoFA. The overall net movement in funds, after actuarial movements on the Local Government defined benefit pension scheme (“LGPS”), was an increase of £145k (2022 – £1,121k). It is important to note that this overall movement in funds does not reflect the meaningful operational result and includes movements that do not relate to day-to-day running of the academy. To reach the change in revenue funds it is necessary to exclude movement on tangible fixed assets and the LGPS defined benefit pension liability. The table below reconciles from the overall fund movement per the SoFA to the £67k increase (2022 - decrease of £115k) in revenue funds for the year. The operational result prior to any transfers between revenue and capital funds is also shown: | | 2023 (£'000s) | 2022 (£'000s) | |-----------------------------------------------------------------|---------------|---------------| | Overall net movement in funds for the year per SOFA | 145 | 1,121 | | Decrease/(increase) attributable to fixed asset fund | 78 | (189) | | LGPS actuarial gain | (193) | (1,281) | | LGPS service and interest costs | 37 | 234 | | Increase/(decrease) in revenue funds in the year | 67 | (115) | | Add: Transfers from revenue to capital to fund fixed asset additions | 11 | 136 | | **Operational surplus on revenue funds before transfers to capital** | **78** | **21** | At 31 August 2023, the net book value of fixed assets was £3.09m and movements in tangible fixed assets are shown in note 14 to the financial statements. During the year the assets were used almost exclusively for providing education and the associated support services to the pupils of the academies, the only exceptions to this being letting of the premises to local community groups and other affiliated organisations. **Financial Position** The academy trust held fund balances at 31 August 2023 of £3.27m (2022 - £3.13m). These funds comprise restricted fixed asset funds of £3.09m, restricted revenue funds of £9k and unrestricted revenue funds of £173k. The pension reserve, relating to the present value of the Local Government Pension Scheme defined benefit liability, shows a £nil balance at 31 August 2023 (2022: deficit of £nil). In accordance with accounting requirements, the academy trust’s share of LGPS is carried on the Balance Sheet, with movements each year quantified by the Local Authority’s actuary and reflected through the SOFA. Last year the carried pension deficit fell significantly, and this trend continued during 2022/23. The valuation report received from the Local Authority appointed actuary indicated that a pension accounting surplus existed at 31 August 2023. The accounting standards state that if an employer has an accounting surplus, it should only be recognised to the extent that it is able to recover the surplus either through reduced contributions in the future, or through refunds. However, there are differing opinions across the whole of the public sector and the accounting profession as to the extent to which a pension surplus represents an “unconditional right” of employers and therefore the extent to which the surplus can be recognised as being of economic value, and to date the ESFA have been unable to give any guidance to academy trusts. The Trustees have therefore taken the view that, as a long-term employer open to new members, there is not a reasonable expectation of ever reaching a point of cessation and therefore being able to access a return of surplus. Accordingly, the surplus has not been included, and a break-even £nil position has been reflected on the Balance Sheet. The pension surplus is disclosed in note 2 and the actuarial assumptions and other movements in the year are disclosed in note 23. It is noteworthy that any pension surplus or deficit is merely an accounting figure calculated under FRS 102 for the purposes of the financial statements and has no direct effect on the employer contribution rate paid by the academy trust, which is determined using longer-term funding assumptions. These contribution rates are reviewed every three years in consultation with the scheme’s administrators, and current employer contributions due by the academy trust are fixed until 1 April 2026. Unavoidable delays to some projects resulted in total funds carried forward being larger than originally anticipated. An additional factor was the decision also made by the trustees during the financial period to increase the minimum level of free reserves given uncertainty around inflation, the cost-of-living crisis, and energy costs and long-term government support. **Policy on reserves** The trustees review the levels of free cash reserves of the academy annually. This review encompasses the nature of income and expenditure streams, the need to match income with commitments and the nature of the free cash reserves. The trustees will always try to match income with expenditure in the current year (set and manage a balanced budget), will only carry forward reserves that they consider necessary and will have a clear plan for how it will be used to benefit the pupils. The reserves held at 31 August 2023 are explained in the financial position section above. Free reserves are deemed to be the completed unrestricted revenue reserves held; the trustees have determined that the appropriate minimum level of free reserves should be between 3 and 5% of the General Annual Grant allocation. The reason for this is to provide sufficient working capital to cover extraordinary delays between spending and receipt of grants and to provide a cushion to deal with unexpected emergencies such as urgent maintenance. Free reserves equate to unrestricted funds less funds designated for particular purposes. At 31 August 2023 these amounted to £173k (2022 - £97k). There were no unrestricted funds designated for future projects. The trustees will continue to monitor the level of reserves to ensure that they are maintained at the required level. In the event that they are partly used, the trust will strive to rebuild free reserves up to the level needed. It is the school’s policy to use its funding for the education of current pupils and not to build reserves without purpose. **Investment Policy** Free cash reserves are held in an accessible account at Barclays Bank, Sevenoaks. **Principal Risks and Uncertainties** The trustees have delegated to the Headteacher as Accounting Officer the day-to-day responsibility for ensuring that financial controls conform to the requirements of both propriety and good financial management. The Headteacher as Accounting Officer is also responsible for compliance with the requirements and responsibilities assigned in the funding agreement between Amherst School (Academy) Trust and the Secretary of State for Education. The system of internal control is designed to manage risk to a reasonable level rather than to eliminate all risk of failure to achieve policies, aims and objectives; it can therefore only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance of effectiveness. The system of internal control is based on an ongoing process designed to identify and prioritise the risks to the achievement of Academy Trust policies, aims and objectives, to evaluate the likelihood of those risks being realised and the impact should they be realised, and to manage them efficiently, effectively and economically. The system of internal control has been in place in Amherst School (Academy) Trust for the reporting period ended 31 August 2023 and up to the date of approval of the annual report and financial statements. The trustees review and update the key risks to which the Academy Trust is exposed, at each subcommittee meeting and Full Governing Body meeting. These are recorded on the school’s Key Risk Register together with the operating, financial and compliance controls that have been implemented to mitigate those risks. The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the academy is exposed, in particular those relating to teaching, the provision of facilities, other operational areas of the academy, and its finances, and to ensure that the Trust’s estate is safe, well maintained and complies with relevant regulations. Systems and policies have been implemented to assess risks that the school faces in operational areas (e.g. teaching, health and safety) and in relation to the control of finance, and these are recorded on the academy’s Key Risk Register which is reviewed and updated on an annual basis or more regularly where required. Procedures are in place for the safeguarding of children e.g. safe recruitment, the vetting of visitors to the school and the supervision of the school grounds. The academy has ensured it has adequate insurance cover and has procedures in place for business continuity. The academy has an effective system of internal financial controls which have been assessed in accordance with the Risk Register in the Academies Accounts Direction and the Financial Management and Governance Evaluation. The trustees maintain a register of the risks that could detrimentally impact the academy. Key concerns relate to expected increases in employers’ pension contributions to both the Teachers’ Pension scheme and the Local Government Pension Scheme for support staff. The academy deficit relating to the Local Government Pension Scheme has decreased during the year ending 31 August 2023 by £156k to a nil position. The Department for Education (DfE) has set out details of a guarantee that any outstanding LGPS liabilities on academy closure will be met by the DfE. This means that any deficit owing to the LGPS at that time will be first met by the academy’s available assets and otherwise met by the DfE. Current principal risks summary: | Risk | Risk Management | |----------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Inflation and cost of living crisis impacting school finances, the ability of Amherst families to fund the costs of school trips and opportunities and the viability of the Amherst School Kitchen | School finances are reviewed monthly to inform decision making. | | Decrease in high needs funding provided by Kent County Council. | Support staff employment contracts directly linked to high needs funding. Regular review of the allocation of funding and the impact of any changes in the method of allocating funds. | | The uncertainty of energy costs and availability of any longer-term government support. | Regular monitoring of usage and prices. Monthly reporting to the Headteacher, Chair of Governors and the Chair of Finance. | | The continued trend in low birth rates | The school is actively promoted in the local community and the Headteacher offers individual tours and discussions to potential families. The financial impact of the pupil numbers is closely monitored to inform management actions. | | The school is not currently at capacity which could also create a shortfall in funding in 2023/24. | | | Insufficient funds to maintain buildings and grounds | Monitoring of premises expenditure. Regular review of premises development plan. | **Fundraising** Amherst School is a Converter Academy, funded by the General Annual Grant received directly from the Department for Education plus further income from Pupil Premium, Primary School PE Funding and Higher Needs Funding. In 2022/23, the income that Amherst received from the DfE was £4,265 per pupil. This is the lowest per capita funding level for primary schools in England. The trustees have explored, and continue to explore, opportunities for Amherst to generate the additional income needed to supplement the amounts received from the DfE and Higher Needs Funding. 2023/24 was the sixth academic year when we operated our Breakfast Club and After School Club. This year it has operated from our new Jubilee Building allowing an increased capacity to provide a vital support service to our community of families. The academy also benefited from funds raised by Amherst School PTA a charity wholly affiliated to Amherst School. Parent donations are now made directly to the school and are designated as enrichment funds. The PTA raises funds for specific purchases via an extensive programme of social events and fundraising activities. **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** SATS results for this year and the last are a positive indicator that the academic impact of the pandemic was well mitigated for those cohorts, but the Trustees are conscious that the pandemic will continue to impact Amherst children into the future. In particular, those pupils who missed parts of their Early Years and KS1 education may have different needs to those who were at Amherst during the years of disrupted learning, particularly those who were less able to access online-learning independently due to their age. Consideration of these impacts will therefore need to continue over the next few years as those who missed large chunks of their early education move into KS2. Lexia is in use in Y3 and Y4 to support learning gaps that have been identified in reading and spelling, and IT hardware updates have been made to facilitate this. Curriculum development remains a strong strategic priority, with the project underway to review medium-term planning in foundation subjects to ensure clear progression through Y3 to Y6 and precise selection of curriculum content. So far the curriculums in History, Trustees' report For the year ended 31 August 2023 Geography and Art have been reviewed and revised. The new curriculum plans are now being followed and early feedback from teachers is that they are having a positive impact on pupils. The process followed and documents created were praised by an external consultant as examples of excellent practice. Subject leaders have begun to evaluate the impact and implementation of the new curriculums. The four assessment key questions contained in each unit will also be used to assess how much children have retained and remembered. Over the coming year, a similar review and rewrite is planned for DT, PSHE, Computing and Spelling Punctuation and Grammar. Curriculum focused staff meetings will continue, alongside the expansion of subject leader observations on the implementation and impact of subject teaching in the classroom across all year groups. Trustees will continue to monitor the progress of curriculum development through subject-link and year-group focused visits to school. In common with schools across the country, Amherst has an increasing number of children who struggle to regulate themselves effectively in a school environment. School leadership are working hard to support those children, their families and the staff who work with them. From September, the Cabin will be repurposed as a nurture room to provide a space where children can go to help them regulate if needed. This is an area of increasing challenge in education, and the Trustees will continue to monitor the wellbeing of staff and pupils as well as provision for those children who need additional support to thrive in a school environment. In terms of infrastructure, as well as the playground development project, which will progress over the coming academic year, the Trustees are focussed on the best long-term solution for the Y3 classrooms and the Cabin, seeking to ensure a sustainable and cost-efficient way to ensure that these classrooms remain fit for purpose into the future. Funds held as custodian trustee on behalf of others The Academy holds no funds on behalf of others. Auditor In so far as the trustees are aware: - there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware; and - the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information. This Trustees’ Report, incorporating a Strategic Report, was approved by order of the Board of Trustees, as the company directors, and signed on their behalf by: Louise Austin Chair of Trustees Andrew Reid Headteacher and Accounting Officer Date 30/11/23 Scope of responsibility As trustees, we acknowledge we have overall responsibility for ensuring that Amherst School (Academy) Trust has an effective and appropriate system of control, financial and otherwise. However, such a system is designed to manage rather than eliminate the risk of failure to achieve business objectives and can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss. As trustees, we have reviewed and taken account of the guidance in DfE’s Governance Handbook and competency framework for governance. The trustees have delegated the day-to-day responsibility to the Headteacher, as Accounting Officer, for ensuring financial controls conform with the requirements of both propriety and good financial management and in accordance with the requirements and responsibilities assigned to them in the funding agreement between Amherst School (Academy) Trust and the Secretary of State for Education. They are also responsible for reporting to the trustees any material weaknesses or breakdowns in internal control. Governance The information on governance included here supplements that described in the Trustees’ Report and in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities. The trustees met formally as a Full Governing Body three times during the year and again at the AGM. Attendance during the year at meetings of the Full Governing Body (excluding the AGM) was as follows: | Trustee | Meetings attended | Out of a possible | |--------------------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | Emma Adair | 2 | 3 | | Emma Allen | 1 | 1 | | Rosa Alvarado-Sanchez | 3 | 3 | | Joshua Amott | 1 | 3 | | Susan Arnold | 2 | 3 | | Louise Austin | 3 | 3 | | Emily Bird | 1 | 1 | | Sam Brockington-Belli | 2 | 2 | | Nicola Browning | 3 | 3 | | Tamsin Collins | 3 | 3 | | Emily Grier | 3 | 3 | | Lorna Harvey | 3 | 3 | | Anya Jones | 2 | 3 | | Patricia Jones | 3 | 3 | | Xanthippi Arvanitidou Kapos | 2 | 3 | | Emily Pegg | 2 | 2 | | Andrew Reid (Headteacher) | 3 | 3 | | Kate Stoneman | 2 | 2 | | Lea Trussler | 2 | 3 | As discussed earlier in this report, the trustees have established sub-committees which are vehicles for them to carry out effectively their responsibilities and duties with fewer than the ESFA recommended six full board meetings each year. Furthermore, individual trustees (predominantly non-staff trustees) have responsibilities for specific statutory and non-statutory matters. For example, there are four ‘year group governors’ who visit the school during the year to review in-year attainment and progress data, liaise with teaching staff, meet pupils, attend lessons and see pupils’ written work. The ‘year group governor’ roles have been established for several years now and are an effective way for the trustees to closely understand the challenges faced in the classroom and how staff and pupils work together to address those challenges. There are also individual trustees with coverage responsibilities for the curriculum subjects. Other periodic reporting received by the trustees includes the Headteacher’s Report for each of the three regular Full Governing Body meetings, and reports and management accounts provided by the School Business Manager for the Finance & Buildings Committee. The School Business Manager prepares monthly financial reports. The Finance and Buildings Committee is formed of trustees. Its purpose is, in partnership with the Headteacher and having regard to the School Improvement Plan and OFSTED Action Plan, to set the annual budget by expenditure on behalf of the trustees, ensuring that there is an explicit link between expenditure and the raising of standards. The annual budget is approved by all trustees. The School Business Manager attends the meetings as a guest. The Finance and Buildings Committee, with the exception of staff members, also has the remit of an audit committee. Attendance at meetings of the Finance and Buildings Committee in the year was as follows: | Trustee | Meetings attended | Out of a possible | |-----------------------|-------------------|-------------------| | Emma Adair | 4 | 4 | | Emma Allen | 0 | 1 | | Rosa Alvarado-Sanchez | 4 | 4 | | Louise Austin | 4 | 4 | | Sam Brockington-Belli | 1 | 3 | | Emily Grier (Chair) | 4 | 4 | | Emily Pegg | 3 | 3 | | Andrew Reid | 4 | 4 | **Conflicts of interest** The Trustees keep a register of their business interests on Governor Hub. The register is recorded and maintained by the Clerk and can be checked and updated by an individual Trustee whenever they have a change in circumstance that needs to be recorded. Reminders to do this are given in advance of each Board and sub-committee meeting, with a formal confirmation required annually. Declarations of interest are also a standing item at all meetings of the Governing Board and each of its sub-committees, where each Trustee is required to declare any changes to their business interests to ensure that any potential conflicts of interest can be managed appropriately. Management of conflicts is integral to good governance and the Trustees consider it vital that any conflicts (or perceived conflicts) are appropriately identified, monitored and managed. Amherst has a culture of openness where disclosure of potential conflicts is embraced, not ignored. The Chair ensures that Trustees are aware of their responsibilities and that conflicts are declared and managed or avoided. Measures to manage conflicts may range from disclosure, where the conflict is relevant but immaterial to the decision being made, to withdrawal from a decision or discussion where the conflict makes abstention appropriate, and ultimately resignation if the conflict materially impacts a Trustee's ability to act impartially as a recurring issue or where a Trustee refuses to withdraw when so requested. Where material contracts are being considered, contractors or suppliers who have been approached to tender are cross-checked against the register of business interests and Trustees are asked directly to confirm whether they have any connections, with all transactions considered at arms length in accordance with the school's Finance Policy, its obligations under academy financial regulations and normal procurement procedures. Related party transactions are disclosed in the notes to the Financial Statements. **Governance review** The Trustees are mindful of their skills base and the structure of sub-committees and meetings. The annual skills audit was carried out during 2022/2023. Two new member appointed trustees and two parent trustees joined the board during the period and a further member appointed trustee has joined the board during the Autumn term 2023. Separate from the skills audit, a self-review exercise was carried out during the year to review the impact and effectiveness of the trustees' governance work. A number of areas for improvement were identified and the trustees have taken steps to implement these. The next review will be in Summer 2024. Review of value for money As Accounting Officer, the Headteacher has responsibility for ensuring that the academy trust delivers good value in the use of public resources. The Accounting Officer understands that value for money refers to the educational and wider societal outcomes achieved in return for the taxpayer resources received and encompasses estate safety and management. The Accounting Officer considers how the trust’s use of its resources has provided good value for money during each academic year, and reports to the trustees where value for money can be improved, including the use of benchmarking data where available. The Accounting Officer for the academy trust has delivered improved value for money during the year by: - Hiring, developing and retaining exceptional teachers and school leaders; - Building on continuous improvement in target areas: - Quality of education; - Behaviour and attitudes; - Personal development; and - Leadership and management. - Leveraging the benefits of academy status while conducting business in accordance with the highest standards of integrity, probity and openness; - Ensuring that every child enjoys the same high-quality education in terms of resourcing, tuition and care; - Improving the effectiveness of the academy by keeping the curriculum and organisational structure under continual review while complying with all appropriate statutory and curriculum requirements; - Maintaining close links with local community groups and businesses; - Reviewing the annual budget for the academic year, assessing the implications of funding levels and ensuring that services and contracts have been negotiated to achieve Best Value and are fit for purpose; - Regular monitoring of income and expenditure particularly with regard to the School Improvement Plan ensuring there is an explicit link between expenditure and the raising of standards, with specific focus on the use of Pupil Premium funding; - Developing collaborative activities with other district schools (The Sevenoaks Schools’ Partnership); - Using the wealth of talent within the school’s own staff to offer experience and career development opportunities in relation to areas including creative curriculum, sport skills, and support for Special Educational Needs; - Exploring additional funding streams to increase income; - Regular review of the School Risk Register to assess or identify any risks that may impact the academy; - Regular review in order to be satisfied with the school’s Health and Safety procedures; reviewing the quality of the school environment and equipment, carrying out risk assessments where appropriate, in order to provide a safe working environment for pupils, staff and visitors; - Regular review in order to be satisfied that the Trust’s estate is safe, well-maintained and complies with relevant regulations. The purpose of the system of internal control The system of internal control is designed to manage risk to a reasonable level rather than to eliminate all risk of failure to achieve policies, aims and objectives. It can therefore only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance of effectiveness. The system of internal control is based on an on-going process designed to identify and prioritise the risks to the achievement of academy trust policies, aims and objectives, to evaluate the likelihood of those risks being realised and the impact should they be realised, and to manage them efficiently, effectively and economically. The system of internal control has been in place in Amherst School for the period 1 September 2022 to 31 August 2023 and up to the date of approval of the annual report and financial statements. **Capacity to handle risk** The trustees have reviewed the key risks to which the academy trust is exposed together with the operating, financial and compliance controls that have been implemented to mitigate those risks. The trustees are of the view that there is a formal ongoing process for identifying, evaluating and managing the academy trust's significant risks that has been in place for the period 1 September 2022 to 31 August 2023 and up to the date of approval of the annual report and financial statements. This process is regularly reviewed by the trustees and the identification of key risks is an item on each Full Governing Body and each committee agenda. **The risk and control framework** The academy trust’s system of internal financial control is based on a framework of regular management information and administrative procedures including the segregation of duties and a system of delegation and accountability. In particular, it includes: - comprehensive budgeting and monitoring systems with an annual budget and periodic financial reports which are reviewed and agreed by the trustees; - regular reviews by the Finance and Buildings Committee of reports which indicate financial performance against the forecasts and of major purchase plans, capital works and expenditure programmes; - setting targets to measure financial and other performance; - clearly defined purchasing (asset purchase or capital investment) guidelines; - delegation of authority and segregation of duties; and - identification and management of risks. The trustees have considered the need for a specific internal audit function and have decided not to appoint an internal auditor. The Finance and Buildings Committee has been delegated the responsibility of evaluating the school’s system of internal controls by the trustees. The Committee has the appropriate expertise to carry out the review and this highlights the trustees’ commitment to ownership of the process. In particular, the checks carried out in the current period included: - A Governance review with evidence of review of pupil numbers; - Financial planning and governor monitoring; - Systems walkthroughs and substantive sampling to ensure expected controls in place for: - Payroll systems; and - Purchase and procurement systems; - Review of control accounts and bank reconciliations including catering money; - Meeting minute review and financial return review; - Income, lettings and school trips payments; - Fixed Assets; and - VAT The review involved performing a range of checks on the academy trust’s financial systems as directed by the trustees. Two visits were made for the academic year. An annual summary report was prepared outlining the areas reviewed, key findings, recommendations and conclusions to help consider actions and assess year on year progress. These results of the checks carried out are reported to the trustees. No material control issues were reported for the financial year. Review of Effectiveness As Accounting Officer, the Headteacher has responsibility for reviewing the effectiveness of the system of internal control. During the year in question the review has been informed by: - the results of agreed-upon procedures internal controls evaluation visits; - the work of the external auditor; - the school resource management self-assessment tool; and - the work of the executive managers within the academy trust who have responsibility for the development and maintenance of the internal control framework. The Accounting Officer has been advised of the implications of the result of their review of the system of internal control by the Finance and Buildings Committee and a plan to address weaknesses and ensure continuous improvement of the system is in place. Approved by order of the trustees and signed on their behalf by: Louise Austin Chair of Trustees Andrew Reid Headteacher and Accounting Officer Date: 30/11/23 Statement of Regularity, Propriety and Compliance As accounting officer of Amherst School (Academy) Trust I have considered my responsibility to notify the academy trust board of trustees and the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) of material irregularity, impropriety and non-compliance with terms and conditions of all funding received by the academy trust, including for estates safety and management, under the funding agreement in place between the academy trust and the Secretary of State for Education. As part of my consideration I have had due regard to the requirements of the Academy Trust Handbook 2022, including responsibilities for estates safety and management. I confirm that I and the academy trust board of trustees are able to identify any material irregular or improper use of all funds by the academy trust, or material non-compliance with the terms and conditions of funding under the academy trust's funding agreement and the Academy Trust Handbook 2022. I confirm that no instances of material irregularity, impropriety or funding non-compliance have been discovered to date. If any instances are identified after the date of this statement, these will be notified to the board of trustees and ESFA. Andrew Reid Accounting Officer Date: 3dulzs Statement of trustees' responsibilities For the year ended 31 August 2023 The trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the Academies Accounts Direction published by the Education and Skills Funding Agency, United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP 2019 and the Academies Accounts Direction 2022 to 2023; - make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The trustees are responsible for ensuring that in its conduct and operation the charitable company applies financial and other controls, which conform with the requirements both of propriety and of good financial management. They are also responsible for ensuring grants received from ESFA/DfE have been applied for the purposes intended. The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. Approved by order of the members of the board of trustees and signed on its behalf by: Louise Austin Chair of Trustees Date: 30/11/23 Opinion We have audited the financial statements of Amherst School (Academy) Trust (the 'academy trust') for the year ended 31 August 2023 which comprise the Statement of financial activities, the Balance sheet, the Statement of cash flows and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law, United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', the Charities SORP 2019 and the Academies Accounts Direction 2022 to 2023 issued by the Education and Skills Funding Agency. In our opinion the financial statements: - give a true and fair view of the state of the academy trust's affairs as at 31 August 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended; - have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and - have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, the Charities SORP 2019 and the Academies Accounts Direction 2022 to 2023 issued by the Education and Skills Funding Agency. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the academy trust in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the academy trust's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other information The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: - the information given in the Trustees' report including the Strategic report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. - the Trustees' report and the Strategic report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. Matters on which we are required to report by exception In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the academy trust and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' report including the Strategic report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: - adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or - the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or - certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the Statement of trustees' responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the academy trust for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the academy trust's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the academy trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: How the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: - we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the academy trust through discussions with management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the academy and wider education sector; - we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the accounts or the operations of the academy trust, including the Academy Trust Handbook, Annual Accounts Direction, Charity SORP and the Companies Act 2006; - we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting correspondence; and - identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. We assessed the susceptibility of the academy trust’s accounts to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: - making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and - considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: - performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; - tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; - assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in the accounting policies were indicative of potential bias; and - investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: - agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; - reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and - enquiring of management and representatives of Trustees as to actual and potential litigation and claims. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' report. **Use of our report** This report is made solely to the academy trust's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the academy trust's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the academy trust and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. *Allan Hickie BSc FCA (Senior statutory auditor)* for and on behalf of **UHY Kent LLP** Chartered Accountants Statutory Auditors Thames House, Roman Square Sittingbourne Kent. ME10 4BJ Date: 14 December 2023 Independent Reporting Accountant’s Assurance Report on Regularity to Amherst School (Academy) Trust and the Education and Skills Funding Agency In accordance with the terms of our engagement letter dated 23 April 2020 and further to the requirements of the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) as included in the Academics Accounts Direction 2022 to 2023, we have carried out an engagement to obtain limited assurance about whether the expenditure disbursed and income received by Amherst School (Academy) Trust during the year 1 September 2022 to 31 August 2023 have been applied to the purposes identified by Parliament and the financial transactions conform to the authorities which govern them. This report is made solely to Amherst School (Academy) Trust and ESFA in accordance with the terms of our engagement letter. Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to Amherst School (Academy) Trust and ESFA those matters we are required to state in a report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than Amherst School (Academy) Trust and ESFA, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusion we have formed. Respective responsibilities of Amherst School (Academy) Trust’s accounting officer and the reporting accountant The accounting officer is responsible, under the requirements of Amherst School (Academy) Trust’s funding agreement with the Secretary of State for Education dated 24 February 2011 and the Academy Trust Handbook, extant from 1 September 2022, for ensuring that expenditure disbursed and income received is applied for the purposes intended by Parliament and the financial transactions conform to the authorities which govern them. Our responsibilities for this engagement are established in the United Kingdom by our profession's ethical guidance and are to obtain limited assurance and report in accordance with our engagement letter and the requirements of the Academies Accounts Direction 2022 to 2023. We report to you whether anything has come to our attention in carrying out our work which suggests that in all material respects, expenditure disbursed and income received during the year 1 September 2022 to 31 August 2023 have not been applied to purposes intended by Parliament or that the financial transactions do not conform to the authorities which govern them. Approach We conducted our engagement in accordance with the Framework and Guide for External Auditors and Reporting Accountants of Academy Trusts issued by ESFA. We performed a limited assurance engagement as defined in our engagement letter. The objective of a limited assurance engagement is to perform such procedures as to obtain information and explanations in order to provide us with sufficient appropriate evidence to express a negative conclusion on regularity. A limited assurance engagement is more limited in scope than a reasonable assurance engagement and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in a reasonable assurance engagement. Accordingly, we do not express a positive opinion. Our engagement includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the regularity and propriety of the academy trust’s income and expenditure. We conducted our work in accordance with Technical Release TECH 08/12 AAF issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. In accordance with that Technical Release we have carried out the procedures we consider necessary to arrive at our conclusion. Other than those procedures undertaken for the purposes of our audit of the financial statements of Amherst School (Academy) Trust for the year ended 31 August 2023 which provide evidence on regularity, our work was limited to only those additional procedures necessary to provide limited assurance. The work undertaken to draw to our conclusion included: - an assessment of the risk of material irregularity and impropriety across all of the academy trust’s activities; - further testing and review of the areas identified through the risk assessment including enquiry, identification of control processes and examination of supporting evidence across all areas identified as well as additional verification work where considered necessary; and - consideration of evidence obtained through the work detailed above and the work completed as part of our financial statements audit in order to support the regularity conclusion. In line with the Framework and Guide for External Auditors and Reporting Accountants of Academy Trusts issued April 2023, we have not performed any additional procedures regarding the academy trust’s compliance with safeguarding, health and safety and estates management. Conclusion In the course of our work, nothing has come to our attention which suggests in all material respects that the expenditure disbursed and income received during the year 1 September 2022 to 31 August 2023 has not been applied to purposes intended by Parliament and the financial transactions do not conform to the authorities which govern them.

Accounting policies A summary of the principal accounting policies adopted (which have been applied consistently, except where noted), judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty, is set out below. 1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements The financial statements of the academy trust, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared under the historic cost convention in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Academies Accounts Direction 2022 to 2023 issued by ESFA, the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006. 1.2 Going concern The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the academy trust to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the date of authorisation for issue of the financial statements and have concluded that the academy trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and there are no material uncertainties about the academy trust's ability to continue as a going concern, thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 1.3 Income All incoming resources are recognised when the academy trust has entitlement to the funds, the receipt is probable and the amount can be measured reliably. - **Grants** Grants are included in the Statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of meeting any performance-related conditions there is not unconditional entitlement to the income and its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income until the performance-related conditions are met. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued. General Annual Grant is recognised in full in the Statement of financial activities in the year for which it is receivable and any abatement in respect of the year is deducted from income and recognised as a liability. Capital grants are recognised in full when there is an unconditional entitlement to the grant. Unspent amounts of capital grants are reflected in the Balance sheet in the restricted fixed asset fund. Capital grants are recognised when there is entitlement and are not deferred over the life of the asset on which they are expended. - **Donations** Donations are recognised on a receivable basis (where there are no performance-related conditions) where the receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured. - **Other income** Other income, including the hire of facilities, is recognised in the year it is receivable and to the extent the academy trust has provided the goods or services. 1.4 Expenditure Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. 1. Accounting policies (continued) 1.4 Expenditure (continued) - Charitable activities These are costs incurred on the academy trust's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the academy trust apportioned to charitable activities. All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 1.5 Interest receivable Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the academy trust; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited. 1.6 Taxation The academy trust is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the academy trust is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Part 11, chapter 3 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 1.7 Tangible fixed assets Assets costing £5,000 or more are capitalised as tangible fixed assets and are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Where tangible fixed assets have been acquired with the aid of specific grants, either from the government or from the private sector, they are included in the Balance sheet at cost and depreciated over their expected useful economic life. Where there are specific conditions attached to the funding requiring the continued use of the asset, the related grants are credited to a restricted fixed asset fund in the Statement of financial activities and carried forward in the Balance sheet. Depreciation on the relevant assets is charged directly to the restricted fixed asset fund in the Statement of financial activities. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets other than freehold land and assets under construction, at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life, as follows: Depreciation is provided on the following bases: | Asset Type | Useful Life | |-----------------------------------|-------------------| | Long-term leasehold property | over 50 years | | Leasehold improvements | between 10 and 20 years | | Furniture and equipment | between 3 and 10 years | A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities. 1.8 Debtors Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 1.9 Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 1. Accounting policies (continued) 1.10 Liabilities Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the academy trust anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. 1.11 Financial instruments The academy trust only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS 102. The financial assets and financial liabilities of the academy trust and their measurement bases are as follows: Financial assets - trade and other debtors are basic financial instruments and are debt instruments measured at amortised cost as detailed in note 15. Prepayments are not financial instruments. Cash at bank is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value. Financial liabilities - trade creditors, accruals and other creditors are financial instruments, and are measured at amortised cost as detailed in note 16. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial instruments disclosure definition. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as the cash settlement has already taken place and there is an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another financial instrument. 1.12 Pensions Retirement benefits to employees of the academy trust are provided by the Teachers' Pension Scheme ("TPS") and the Local Government Pension Scheme ("LGPS"). These are defined benefit schemes. The TPS is an unfunded scheme and contributions are calculated so as to spread the cost of pensions over employees' working lives with the academy trust in such a way that the pension cost is a substantially level percentage of current and future pensionable payroll. The contributions are determined by the Government Actuary on the basis of quadrennial valuations using a prospective unit credit method. TPS is an unfunded multi-employer scheme with no underlying assets to assign between employers. Consequently, the TPS is treated as a defined contribution scheme for accounting purposes and the contributions recognised in the period to which they relate. The LGPS is a funded multi-employer scheme and the assets are held separately from those of the academy trust in separate trustee administered funds. Pension scheme assets are measured at fair value and liabilities are measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit credit method and discounted at a rate equivalent to the current rate of return on a high quality corporate bond of equivalent term and currency to the liabilities. The actuarial valuations are obtained at least triennially and are updated at each Balance sheet date. The amounts charged to operating surplus are the current service costs and the costs of scheme introductions, benefit changes, settlements and curtailments. They are included as part of staff costs as incurred. Net interest on the net defined benefit liability/asset is also recognised in the Statement of financial activities and comprises the interest cost on the defined benefit obligation and interest income on the scheme assets, calculated by multiplying the fair value of the scheme assets at the beginning of the period by the rate used to discount the benefit obligations. The difference between the interest income on the scheme assets and the actual return on the scheme assets is recognised in other recognised gains and losses. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised immediately in other recognised gains and losses. 1. Accounting policies (continued) 1.13 Fund accounting Unrestricted income funds represent those resources which may be used towards meeting any of the charitable objects of the academy trust at the discretion of the trustees. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. Restricted fixed asset funds are resources which are to be applied to specific capital purposes imposed by the funder where the asset acquired or created is held for a specific purpose. Restricted general funds comprise all other restricted funds received with restrictions imposed by the funder/donor and include grants from the Department for Education Group. Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund. 2. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions: The academy trust makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. The present value of the Local Government Pension Scheme defined benefit liability depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a variety of assumptions. The assumptions used in determining the net cost or income for pensions include the discount rate. Any changes in these assumptions, which are disclosed in note 23, will impact the carrying amount of the pension liability. Furthermore a roll forward approach which projects results from the latest full actuarial valuation performed at 31 March 2022 has been used by the actuary in valuing the pensions liability at 31 August 2023. Any differences between the figures derived from the roll forward approach and a full actuarial valuation would impact on the carrying amount of the pension liability. The ultimate responsibility for setting the assumptions is that of the academy trust, as the employer, however each year the LGPS actuary proposes a standard set of assumptions as part of the valuation exercise, using their expert opinion, and which comply with the accounting requirements. The academy trust has, in line with most employers, adopted the recommended actuarial assumptions following further consultation with its auditors to ensure these assumptions are reasonable and in line with those adopted by other academy trusts. The key assumption is the discount rate, which is the estimated rate of long-term investment returns. This year the discount rate used of 5.30% is higher than the rate of 4.25% used in 2022. Since a higher discount rate means assets will grow more rapidly in the future, this results in lower current liabilities. This is the key driver for the reduction in the carried LGPS deficit from £156k during the year. Critical areas of judgment: FRS 102 section 28.22 allows an entity to recognise a surplus within the Local Government Pension Scheme "only to the extent it is able to recover the surplus either through reduced contributions in the future or through refunds from the plan." The academy trust has considered it unlikely that a surplus being recognised would ever result in a repayment or reduction in contributions, given that such a surplus is probably only temporary. Therefore, although the actuarial report for the year ended 31 August 2023 indicates a defined benefit asset of £33k exists at the year end date, the actuarial gain has been restricted by this amount to leave a break even position and neither an asset or liability has been recognised. 3.

Trustees' remuneration and expenses One or more trustees has been paid remuneration or has received other benefits from an employment with the academy trust. The Headteacher and other staff trustees only receive remuneration in respect of services they provide undertaking the roles of Headteacher and staff members under their contracts of employment. The value of trustees' remuneration and other benefits was as follows: | Name | Position | Remuneration | Pension contributions paid | 2023 £ | 2022 £ | |-------------------------------|---------------------------|-----------------------|----------------------------|--------|--------| | Andrew Reid | Headteacher | 85,000 - 90,000 | 20,000 - 25,000 | 80,000 - 85,000 | 15,000 - 20,000 | | Patricia Jones | Staff Trustee | 60,000 - 65,000 | 10,000 - 15,000 | 55,000 - 60,000 | 10,000 - 15,000 | | Susan Arnold | Staff Trustee | 5,000 - 10,000 | 0 - 5,000 | 15,000 - 20,000 | 0 - 5,000 | | Joanna Mais | Staff Trustee (resigned 24 March 2022) | - | - | 0 - 5,000 | 0 - 5,000 | | Lorna Harvey | Staff Trustee (appointed 9 June 2022) | 35,000 - 40,000 | 5,000 - 10,000 | 0 - 5,000 | During the year ended 31 August 2023, no trustee expenses have been incurred (2022 - £NIL). 13. Trustees' and Officers' insurance The academy trust has opted into the Department for Education's risk protection arrangement (RPA), an alternative to insurance where UK government funds cover losses that arise. This scheme protects trustees and officers from claims arising from negligent acts, errors or omissions occurring whilst on academy business, and provides cover up to £10,000,000. It is not possible to quantify the trustees and officers indemnity element from the overall cost of the RPA scheme membership. 14.

Statement of funds (continued) The specific purposes for which the funds are to be applied are as follows: The designated fund had been set aside by the trustees to contribute towards future enrichment projects. The funds were fully spent in the year on the 'Grand Designs' project. General Annual Grant (GAG) must be used for the normal running costs of the academy, and hence are shown as a separate restricted fund. The transfer into the GAG fund is from the general unrestricted fund in order to cover the excess of expenditure over income during the year, and to avoid leaving the GAG fund in an overall deficit position. The Other DfE/ESFA grant fund relates to income received from the DfE and ESFA, and included Pupil Premium grant. The Other Government grant fund relates to restricted income received from other government bodies and includes money received from Kent County Council. The pension reserve is a restricted fund to account for movements in the Local Government Pension Scheme balance. The restricted fixed asset funds are carried forward to meet the specific costs of fixed asset projects and to cover the depreciation charges that will be required on these projects going forward and the current fixed assets held. The transfer in of £11,260 from unrestricted funds is the amount of capital expenditure met by those funds. 17.

Pension commitments The academy trust's employees belong to two principal pension schemes: the Teachers' Pension Scheme England and Wales (TPS) for academic and related staff; and the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) for non-teaching staff, which is managed by Kent County Council. Both are multi-employer defined benefit schemes. The latest actuarial valuation of the TPS related to the period ended 31 March 2020 and of the LGPS 31 March 2022. Contributions amounting to £35,726 were payable to the schemes at 31 August 2023 (2022 - £ -) and are included within creditors. Teachers' Pension Scheme The Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS) is a statutory, contributory, defined benefit scheme, governed by the Teachers' Pension Scheme Regulations 2014. Membership is automatic for full-time teachers in academies. All teachers have the option to opt-out of the TPS following enrolment. The TPS is an unfunded scheme to which both the member and employer makes contributions, as a percentage of salary - these contributions are credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament. Valuation of the Teachers' Pension Scheme The Government Actuary, using normal actuarial principles, conducts a formal actuarial review of the TPS in accordance with the Public Service Pensions (Valuations and Employer Cost Cap) Directions 2014 published by HM Treasury every 4 years. The aim of the review is to specify the level of future contributions. Actuarial scheme valuations are dependent on assumptions about the value of future costs, design of benefits and many other factors. The latest actuarial valuation of the TPS was carried out as at 31 March 2020. The valuation report was published by the Department for Education on 30 October 2023. The key elements of the valuation and subsequent consultation are: - employer contribution rates set at 28.68% of pensionable pay (including a 0.08% administration levy) - total scheme liabilities (pensions currently in payment and the estimated cost of future benefits) for service to the effective date of £262,000 million and notional assets (estimated future contributions together with the notional investments held at the valuation date) of £222,200 million, giving a notional past service deficit of £39,800 million - the SCAPE discount rate, set by HMT, is used to determine the notional investment return. The current SCAPE rate is 1.7% above the rate of CPI and is based on the Office for Budget Responsibility’s forecast for long-term GDP growth. The next valuation result is due to be implemented from 1 April 2027. The employer's pension costs paid to TPS in the year amounted to £179,000 (2022 - £170,000). A copy of the valuation report and supporting documentation is on the Teachers’ Pensions website (https://www.teacherspensions.co.uk/news/employers/2023/10/valuation-result.aspx). Under the definitions set out in FRS 102, the TPS is an unfunded multi-employer pension scheme. The academy trust has accounted for its contributions to the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. The academy trust has set out above the information available on the scheme. 23. Pension commitments (continued) Local Government Pension Scheme The LGPS is a funded defined benefit pension scheme, with the assets held in separate trustee-administered funds. The total contribution made for the year ended 31 August 2023 was £186,000 (2022 - £165,000), of which employer's contributions totalled £141,000 (2022 - £130,000) and employees' contributions totalled £45,000 (2022 - £35,000). The agreed contribution rates for future years are 22.5 per cent for employers and 5.5 to 12.5 per cent for employees, varying according to remuneration levels. Parliament has agreed, at the request of the Secretary of State for Education, to a guarantee that, in the event of academy closure, outstanding Local Government Pension Scheme liabilities would be met by the Department for Education. The guarantee came into force on 18 July 2013 and on 21 July 2022, the Department for Education reaffirmed its commitment to the guarantee, with a parliamentary minute published on GOV.UK.

Members' liability Each member of the charitable company undertakes to contribute to the assets of the company in the event of it being wound up while he/she is a member, or within one year after he/she ceases to be a member, such amount as may be required, not exceeding £10 for the debts and liabilities contracted before he/she ceases to be a member. 26. **Related party transactions** Owing to the nature of the academy trust and the composition of the board of trustees being drawn from local public and private sector organisations, transactions may take place with organisations in which the trustees have an interest. All transactions involving such organisations are conducted in accordance with the requirements of the Academy Trust Handbook, including notifying the ESFA of all transactions made on or after 1 April 2019 and obtaining their approval where required, and with the academy trust's financial regulations and normal procurement procedures relating to connected and related party transactions. **Amherst School Fund** Amherst School Fund is a separately registered charity (no. 1095639) with certain trustees in common with the academy trust. During the year the academy trust received donations of £4,846 (2022 - £743) from the Amherst School Fund, after which the Fund was closed. **Amherst School PTA** The Amherst School Parent Teacher Association is a separate charity with registration number 1002301. The PTA is in existence to benefit the school and the Headteacher, Mr. A. Reid, is a trustee of the PTA. During the year the academy trust received donations of £14,292 (2022 - £154,000, of which £150,000 was for the Grand Designs project) from the PTA. **Transactions with trustees** Gift vouchers totalling £Nil (2022 - £150) were provided to trustees for their service to the school.

LOCALIZZAZIONE DELLE MAGGIORI CRITICITÀ nel Comune di VENARIA REALE (TO) venaria reale, novembre 2005 Allegato n. 1 - PLANIMETRIA GENERALE - Interferenze con Tangenziale Torino Nord. CASCINALE DI VIA AMATI 91 – ALTESSANO (VENARIA REALE) Cenni storici Il Cascinale in questione, situato nel quartiere di Altessano a Venaria Reale nei pressi della Tangenziale, risulta essere una delle costruzioni ad uso civile più antiche del territorio: risale infatti al XVIII secolo e di essa se ne trova traccia anche in numerose mappe d’epoca, comprese quelle relative alle Rotte di Caccia del Re. Inizialmente denominato *Cascinotto Girotto*, muta nel corso del tempo denominazione: viene infatti chiamata *Cascina Paletta*, quindi *Rubeo* ed in seguito *Passerino* secondo il succedersi dei proprietari. La Cascina aveva fatto anche parte nel Novecento del patrimonio della Snia di Altessano, per poi essere ceduta agli attuali proprietari. All’interno di questo fabbricato era inoltre presente una Cappella dedicata a San Domenico, edificata nel 1818, una delle quattro cappelle di Altessano. Pur essendo attualmente utilizzata ad uso abitativo, la Cascina ha mantenuto la sua conformazione originaria di “azienda agricola”, e per questo costituisce un’importante ed ormai rara testimonianza di questa tipologia di costruzioni rurali.

SAMENVATTING De opleiding Human Resource Management (hierna: HRM) van De Haagse Hogeschool onderscheidt twee varianten, een voltijd- en deeltijdvariant. Voor beide geldt een opleidingsduur van vier jaar; ze zijn verschillend vormgegeven om tegemoet te komen aan de specifieke doelgroep van beide varianten. Afgestudeerden komen terecht in een breed werkveld waaronder de afdeling P&O of HRM van een bedrijf. Ook kunnen zij als trainer/opleider, HR-consultant of als adviseur aan de slag. Verder bestaat de mogelijkheid om een verkorte woonmaster te volgen op uiteenlopende terreinen waaronder Personeelswetenschappen, Bedrijfskunde of Organisatiepsychologie. **Onderwerp 1. Beoogde leerresultaten** De opleiding gaat bij beide varianten, voltijd en deeltijd, uit van het in 2016 vastgestelde Landelijk Opleidingsprofiel 2016+. Het beroepenveld is bij de vormgeving en vaststelling ervan betrokken geweest, waardoor de beoogde leerresultaten/competenties aansluiten op de eisen die het beroep stelt. De focus op onderzoek is expliciet in het landelijk profiel opgenomen. Met de toevoeging van wereldburgerschap aan de eerste competentie sluit de opleiding aan bij de hogeschool-brede profilering op dit terrein, een toevoeging die de opleiding nog verder als onderdeel van het profiel kan concretiseren. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 1 voor beide varianten als voldoende. **Onderwerp 2. Programma** De inhoud van het voltijd- en deeltijdcurriculum is actueel waarbij professionele HRM-vaardigheden deel uitmaken van beide curricula. Deze vaardigheden zijn passend voor de professionele oriëntatie en het bachelorniveau van de opleiding. Er is een goede balans tussen de theorie- en praktijkcomponent in het programma. De minoren/keuzemodulen die de opleiding aanbiedt binnen de kaders van vrije studieruimte, sluiten goed aan bij actuele ontwikkelingen in het vakgebied. De curricula zijn zodanig uitgewerkt en vormgegeven, dat studenten de beoogde leerresultaten kunnen behalen. Onderzoek is opgenomen in de doelstellingen en het curriculum, zoals de beoogde leerresultaten veronderstellen, waarbij de opleiding wel nog meer kan samenwerken met lectoraten en onderzoeksplatforms. Zowel de theorie- als de praktijkcomponent komen in de curricula in ruime mate aan bod. Internationalisering is eveneens uitgewerkt waarbij het auditpanel opmerkt dat HRM haar studenten meer kan aanmoedigen om ook buitenlandervaring te verwerven. Het curriculum is dusdanig vormgegeven dat de studenten de beoogde leerresultaten kunnen behalen, mede door het heldere didactische concept en de daarbij door de opleiding gehanteerde inzichtelijk structuur en opbouw van zowel het voltijd- als het deeltijdcurriculum. De toegepaste didactiek en werkvormen sluiten goed aan op de doelgroepen van beide varianten. Studenten participeren actief in het onderwijs waarbij de opleiding hen uitdaagt om in het kader van student-centraal onderwijs ook zelf vorm te geven aan het leerproces. Hierbij speelt het leerlandschap van HRM een centrale rol. De minoren/keuzemodulen die de opleiding aanbiedt binnen de kaders van vrije studieruimte, sluiten goed aan bij actuele ontwikkelingen in het vakgebied. De opleiding houdt rekening met de vooropleiding van studenten, organiseert degelijke voorlichting, kent remediërende programmaonderdelen in de propedeuse op het terrein van taal en rekenen, en houdt aparte intakegesprekken voor deeltijdstudenten. Het opleidingsrendement is de afgelopen jaren sterk verbeterd. HRM biedt talentvolle studenten de mogelijkheid om zich verder te ontwikkelen. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 2 (oriëntatie) en 5 (aansluiting) als voldoende voor beide varianten. Standaard 3 (inhoud) en 4 (vormgeving) beoordeelt het auditpanel als goed, eveneens voor beide varianten. **Onderwerp 3. Personeel** Uit het door de opleiding verstrekte overzicht van kwalificaties van het docentencorps en uit het auditgesprek blijkt een ruime dekking van expertise die nodig is om beide curricula te verzorgen. Studenten bevestigen dit en zijn zeer tevreden over de didactische en vakinhoudelijke kwaliteiten van hun docenten. Zij professionaliseren zich stelselmatig; de opleiding faciliteert dit. De werkdruk van docenten vormt nog een punt van aandacht. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 6 als goed voor beide varianten. **Onderwerp 4. Voorzieningen** De studiebegeleiding is voldoende, evenals de voorbereiding op studentstages. De opleiding kan nog inzetten op een intensievere binding met haar studenten tijdens de hele opleiding. Studenten beschikken over voldoende werkplekken. De faciliteiten waaronder apparatuur, bibliotheek, leerlandschap en stilteruimten dragen bij aan een adequaat geoutilleerd studieklimaat waarbij HRM wel tegen de grenzen aanloopt van hetgeen studenten wensen, met name op IT-gebied. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 7 en 8 als voldoende voor beide varianten. **Onderwerp 5. Kwaliteitszorg** De opleiding is op weg naar een kwaliteitscultuur; alle betrokkenen denken en handelen vanuit kwaliteitsbewustzijn en –verbetering. Er is sprake van een evaluatiesystematiek waarbij de opleiding iedere paar jaar de maat wordt genomen. De afgelopen jaren is HRM meerdere malen beoordeeld waarbij verbetermaatregelen zijn geformuleerd en waarmee de opleiding aan de slag is gegaan. Hiervoor geldt: *work in progress*. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 9 als voldoende voor beide varianten. **Onderwerp 6. Toetsing** De opleiding beschikt over een opleidingsbreed, transparant en coherent toetsbeleid. De examencommissie vervult haar wettelijke taken, is sparring partner van het management, is deskundig en opereert onafhankelijk. De toetscommissie ondersteunt de examencommissie hierbij. De examencommissie en het werkveld houden zicht op het gerealiseerde niveau. De door het auditpanel bestudeerde toetsen presenteren het bachelorniveau. De toetsing gebeurt betrouwbaar daar waar dit het meer-ogen principe betreft. Van belang is dat beoordelaars meer aandacht besteden bij de beoordeling van afstudeerwerken aan de inzichtelijkheid en navolgbaarheid van hun oordelen. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 10 als voldoende voor beide varianten. **Onderwerp 7. Gerealiseerde leerresultaten** Het auditpanel stelt vast dat HRM-studenten met de afstudeerproducten laten zien dat zij de beoogde leerresultaten hebben behaald. Wel kan de opleiding een ‘tandje bijschakelen’ wat betreft de kwaliteit van de afstudeerproducten. Het werkveld is tevreden over de kwaliteit en het functioneren van de alumni in de beroepspraktijk; laatstgenoemden zijn van oordeel dat de opleiding hen adequaat heeft voorbereid op het werkveld. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 11 als voldoende voor beide varianten. **Algemene conclusie:** Het auditpanel stelt vast dat de hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management van De Haagse Hogeschool in de varianten voltijd en deeltijd beschikt over een set competenties die voldoende aansluit op de eisen die de praktijk stelt aan bachelor-afgestudeerde HRM’ers. Het docententeam is vakinhoudelijk voldoende deskundig. De afstudeerproducten van zowel voltijd- als deeltijdstudenten representeren het hbo-bachelorniveau. Het auditpanel komt dan ook, conform de beslisregels van de NVAO, tot het oordeel ‘voldoende’ voor de bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management van De Haagse Hogeschool in de varianten voltijd en deeltijd. Na instemming van de panelleden is dit rapport vastgesteld door de voorzitter te Den Haag op 25 februari 2019. 3. INLEIDING De opleiding Human Resource Management (hierna: HRM) maakt sinds 2014 binnen De Haagse Hogeschool deel uit van de faculteit Management en Organisatie. Er is toen door een groot deel van het team docenten voor gekozen om de opleiding te vernieuwen. Ten tijde van de audit bevond HRM zich in de laatste fase van een curriculumherziening. Het propedeutisch jaar van de voltijdvariant had twee jaar ‘gedraaid’ in de nieuwe vorm. Met ingang van het huidige studiejaar, 2018-2019, is HRM met de uitvoering van het nieuw vormgegeven derde voltijdstudiejaar gestart. De opleiding heeft een heterogene studentenpopulatie, die een afspiegeling vormt van de Haagse bevolking. De deeltijdvariant heeft de afgelopen jaren te maken gehad met een dalende instroom van studenten naar zo’n 20 eerstejaars. Mede daarom werkt HRM samen met de opleiding Facility Management en bieden zij een aantal modulen gezamenlijk aan. Vorige accreditatie De opleiding is in 2010 geaccrediteerd. In 2014 vond een interne audit plaats, gevolgd in 2016 door een interne kwaliteitsmeting. Uit zowel de accreditatie, de interne audit als de interne kwaliteitsmeting kwamen een aantal aanbevelingen voor HRM naar voren gekomen. De opvolging door HRM van de aanbevelingen uit de accreditatieaudit is in onderstaand schema weergegeven. | Accreditatie 2010 | Vervolgacties en resultaten | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Om de hoge studentuitval tegen te gaan, moet de opleiding aanvullende maatregelen nemen, naast de al eerder door haar ingezette maatregelen. | De opleiding pakt de uitval in de propedeuse aan door een leeromgeving te bieden met veel ondersteuning. Het aantal contacturen per week is verdubbeld. Verschillende acties hebben geleid tot een voortijdige uitval van 35 procent, een percentage dat de opleiding acceptabel acht. | | De studieloopbaanbegeleiding in de voltijdvariant was vernieuwd. Ten tijde van de audit was dit nog niet volledig ingevoerd. | De vernieuwde studieloopbaanbegeleiding is in het nieuwe curriculum dat de opleiding thans aanbiedt opgenomen. Voor studenten die het nog in afbouw zijnde curriculum volgen, geldt dat HRM hen intensief begeleidt. | | De opleiding maakte gebruik van een groot aantal evaluaties zonder dat meteen duidelijk is waar de prioriteiten liggen. HRM kan daar meer focus in aanbrengen. | In het nieuw curriculum is gekozen voor grotere en meer samenhangende onderwijseenheden waardoor het aantal studentevaluaties is afgenomen tot een overzichtelijk aantal. Voor HRM is het thans mogelijk om een overzichtelijk aantal verbeteracties te prioriteren. | | HRM kon haar studenten beter informeren over veranderingen in de opleiding. | HRM maakt voor informatievoorziening gebruik van Blackboard, Osiris en hanteert een vast rooster. Informatievoorziening blijft een aandachtspunt. | Deze rapportage In de voorliggende rapportage besteedt het auditpanel aandacht aan zowel de voltijd- als de deeltijdvariant van de opleiding HRM. Op die punten waar beide opleidingsvarianten van elkaar verschillen, is dit hier beschreven. Daar waar geen significante verschillen aangetroffen zijn, gelden de bevindingen en oordelen voor beide opleidingsvarianten. ©Habéon Certificering | Beoordelingsrapport hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management, De Haagse Hogeschool | v3.0AVG | 6 4. OORDELEN OP HET NIVEAU VAN DE STANDAARDEN 4.1. Beoogde leerresultaten Standaard 1: De beoogde leerresultaten passen bij het niveau en de oriëntatie van de opleiding en zijn afgestemd op de verwachtingen van het beroepenveld, het vakgebied en op internationale eisen. Toelichting NVAO: De beoogde leerresultaten beschrijven aantoonbaar het niveau (associate degree, bachelor of master) zoals gedefinieerd in het Nederlands kwalificatieraamwerk en de oriëntatie (hbo of wo) van de opleiding. Ze sluiten bovendien aan bij de actuele eisen die vanuit het regionale, het nationale en het internationale perspectief door het beroepenveld en het vakgebied worden gesteld aan de inhoud van de opleiding. Voor zover van toepassing zijn de beoogde leerresultaten tevens in overeenstemming met relevante wet- en regelgeving. De uitgangspunten voor de inrichting van de opleiding passen bij de onderwijsvisie en het profiel van de instelling. De beoogde leerresultaten worden periodiek geëvalueerd. Bevindingen Opleidingsprofiel Het landelijk opleidingsprofiel HRM (2016) is leidend voor beide varianten van de opleiding. Zij wijkt dan ook niet af van de landelijk overeengekomen eindtermen. De Haagse opleiding leidt haar studenten op voor HRM-posities ‘in brede zin’ waarbij de inhoud van beide curricula (voltijd en deeltijd) aansluit bij ontwikkelingen in het werkveld. Zij wil zich van andere HRM-opleidingen onderscheiden door zich te richten op de thema’s: organisatieontwikkeling, talentontwikkeling, professionele ontwikkeling en vitaliteit. Zo moet de HR-professional een professionele beroeps houding ontwikkelen en een analyse kunnen maken van een organisatie vanuit een organisatie- en bedrijfskundig perspectief. Ook speelt de HRM’er een belangrijke rol bij de ontwikkeling van talenten binnen een organisatie. Bij het thema ‘vitaliteit’ ontwikkelen studenten met hun docenten en externe opdrachtgevers interventies om de vitaliteit van medewerkers te verbeteren. Het auditpanel vindt dat HRM deze thema’s nog sterker als onderdeel van het eigen profiel kan uitwerken. Kerncompetenties De HRM-opleidingen hebben in het ‘Landelijk Opleidingsprofiel 2016+’ zes kerncompetenties geformuleerd. Samengevat luiden deze kerncompetenties: - het werken vanuit een professionele beroeps houding en vanuit persoonlijk leiderschap; - het ontwikkelen, uitvoeren en evalueren van beleid binnen een organisatie en passend binnen de maatschappij; - het initiëren, faciliteren en implementeren van veranderingsprocessen binnen organisaties; - het ontwikkelen van individuen, teams en organisaties; - het realiseren van de gewenste match tussen vraag en aanbod van arbeid op verschillende niveaus; - het doelgericht verzamelen en analyseren van beroepsrelevante data. De opleiding heeft de competenties overgenomen en vanaf het vorige studiejaar ook ingevoerd in het uitevarende oude curriculum. De opleiding heeft als uitwerking van de laatste competentie een visie geformuleerd op onderzoek binnen het vakgebied HRM en tevens de onderzoekscomponent verder uitgewerkt. Voorts heeft zij Wereldburgerschap (diversiteit, inclusief personeelsbeleid) toegevoegd aan de eerste hierboven genoemde competentie. Dit is in lijn met de hogeschool-brede profilering rondom Wereldburgerschap, Internationalisering en Netwerkhogeschool. Het streven van de opleiding is dat studenten zich ontwikkelen ‘tot echte wereldburgers en als HR-professional oog hebben voor een inclusief personeelsbestand. Rol werkveldcommissie en opleidingscommissie. Zowel de opleidingscommissie (bestaande uit drie docenten en drie studenten) als de werkveldcommissie van HRM zijn betrokken bij het (nieuwe) onderwijs en recent (2014) meer in positie gekomen. Zo zijn beide commissies betrokken (geweest) bij het ontwerp van het nieuwe curriculum en hebben daarbij suggesties gedaan voor zowel de onderwijsinhoud als voor de plannen van de opleiding rondom de onderwijsvernieuwing. De werkveldcommissie adviseerde met name of de beoogde leerresultaten overeenkomen met hetgeen het werkveld van de afgestudeerde HR-functionaris verwacht. Voor de opleidingscommissie stond de studeerbaarheid van het curriculum centraal. Internationalisering Het landelijk overleg van HRM-opleidingen heeft een benchmark laten uitvoeren tussen de eigen HRM-kerntaken resp. kerncompetentieprofiel en die van vergelijkbare buitenlandse onderwijsinstellingen. Daaruit is voldoende overeenstemming gebleken. De wijze waarop kerntaken en kerncompetenties zijn uitgewerkt, verschilt en zijn meer landspecifiek. De HRM-opleiding wil duurzame partnerrelaties intensiveren met de huidige hogeschoolpartners in Wenen, Brühl, Kleve, Derby en Thessaloniki en dit nog verder uitbreiden met andere hoger onderwijsinstellingen. De internationaliseringscomponent verdient nog versterking wat betreft de uitwerking ervan in het profiel. Weging en Oordeel De opleiding hanteert voor beide varianten een actueel opleidingsprofiel dat zij onderhoudt, mede in landelijk verband, in overleg met het werkveld. De set competenties is in 2016 in landelijk verband vastgesteld en representeert het vereiste bachelorniveau. De Haagse opleiding profileert zich op vier thema’s die beperkt afwijken van de thema’s waar andere HRM-opleidingen zich op richten. Met de toevoeging van wereldburgerschap aan de eerste competentie sluit de opleiding aan bij de hogeschool-brede profilering op dit terrein. De opleiding kan deze focus nog sterker concretiseren in het eigen profiel. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 1 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 4.2. Programma Standaard 2: Het programma maakt het mogelijk om passende (professionele of academische) onderzoeks- en beroepsvaardigheden te realiseren. Toelichting NVAO: Het programma sluit aan bij de actuele (internationale) ontwikkelingen, eisen en verwachtingen in het beroepenveld en in het vakgebied. Academische vaardigheden en/of onderzoeks- en/of beroepsgerichte competenties krijgen invulling op een wijze die past bij de oriëntatie en het niveau van de opleiding. Bevindingen Onderzoeks- en beroepsvaardigheden sluiten direct aan op de eerste competentie uit het nieuwe landelijk HRM-profiel: *Werken vanuit een professionele beroepshouding en vanuit persoonlijk leiderschap*. HRM heeft een kernteam geïnstalleerd dat zich bezighoudt met het thema onderzoek. Zo is vanuit de HRM-visie op onderzoek in een matrix beschreven wanneer de student tijdens zijn voltijd- of deeltijdopleiding werkt aan zijn onderzoeksvaardigheden en welke leeractiviteiten een bijdrage leveren aan de ontwikkeling van zijn onderzoekend vermogen. De HRM’er laat een onderzoekende houding zien, weet kennis uit wetenschappelijke bronnen op waarde te schatten en is in staat om *hypes* van bewezen methoden te onderscheiden. Hij kan kennis uit verschillende bronnen methodisch ontsluiten en toepassen bij de uitoefening en verdere ontwikkeling van zijn handelen in de praktijk. Daartoe besteedt HRM vanaf de propedeuse bij zowel de deeltijd- als voltijdvariant aandacht aan het werken door studenten aan beroepsproducten. Naarmate de student vordert in zijn studie, neemt de complexiteit van deze beroepsproducten toe waarbij de opleiding een steeds groter beroep doet op het onderzoekend vermogen van studenten. Zij werken aan deze beroepsproducten tijdens groeps- en individueel werk en tijdens stages en het werken aan opdrachten uit het werkveld. Daarmee is het werkveld betrokken bij de inhoud en actualiteit van de opleiding. Zowel werkveld als opleiding informeren elkaar over ontwikkelingen in het vakgebied. Voor de deeltijdvariant geldt dat HRM onderzoeksvaardigheden heeft ondergebracht in een aparte module in het eerste studiejaar. Deeltijdstudenten volgen deze module samen met studenten van de opleiding Facility Management. Verder besteedt HRM-deeltijd aandacht aan de onderzoekscomponent bij de modules ‘Action Learning 1’ en ‘2’. Binnen de kaders van de MAD-opdracht (Methodisch Adviseren, een afsluitende opdracht) toont de deeltijdler aan dat hij in staat is om op een methodisch verantwoorde wijze tot een onderbouwd HRM-advisie komt. Bij het oude, uitfaserende, voltijdcurriculum werkten studenten in het eerste en tweede studiejaar aan de onderzoekscompetenties. Tijdens stages voerden zij twee praktijkopdrachten uit binnen de eigen stageorganisatie voor de studieonderdelen HR-Analytics en Kwaliteitsmanagement. Het auditpanel heeft afstudeerwerken van deze studenten bestudeerd en beoordeeld (zie standaard 11). De opleiding geeft aan op de goede weg te zijn wat betreft de uitwerking van de onderzoekscomponent en blijft haar onderwijs, zoals ze zelf aangeeft, op dit terrein verder verbeteren. Zo wil zij de relatie verbreden en versterken met lectoraten en onderzoeksplatforms binnen de onderwijsinstelling. Doel hiervan is om studenten en docenten nauwer te betrekken bij onderzoek dat deze lectoraten en onderzoeksplatforms uitvoeren. Eerste initiatieven daartoe zijn zichtbaar waarbij opleiding, kenniskring en lectoraten samenwerken. Studenten zijn tevreden over de onderzoekscomponent: een score 3.4 op een vijfpuntsschaal. Het auditpanel waardeerde de aandacht voor onderzoek in het nieuwe curriculum, temeer daar het dit als ondersteunend voor de eindwerken beschouwt (zie standaard 11). Beroepsvaardigheden verwerft de student met name tijdens het praktijkleren in de vorm van stages. Hiervoor is een aanzienlijk deel van zowel het voltijd- als het deeltijdcurriculum gereserveerd. Stages en praktijkleren komen aan bod binnen het thema ‘Professionele Ontwikkeling’. Studenten kunnen zich dan onder begeleiding van een bedrijfsmentor oriënteren op het beroep. Verder lopen alle HRM-studenten stage en volgen zij tevens verdiepend onderwijs. Bij de start van de opleiding krijgt iedere student een mentor toegewezen. Deze maakt de student wegwijz in het werkveld waarbij deze zicht krijgt op wat het beroep in de praktijk betekent. In het tweede en vierde studiejaar loopt de student stage. Iedere twee weken volgt de student op de opleiding intervisiesessies en zijn er terugkomdagen waarbij studenten relevante thema’s uit het beroep en stage-ervaringen bespreken. Tijdens de laatste fase van de studie combineren studenten de stage en het afstuderen binnen het thema ‘Professionele Ontwikkeling’. Ten tijde van de audit werd dit nog ontwikkeld voor het nieuwe curriculum maar waren de kaders waarrlangs HRM dit wil inrichten en de inhoud ervan uitgewerkt. Gedurende het werken aan beroepsproducten voor externe opdrachtgevers, komen studenten in contact met het werkveld waarbij zij oplossingen aandragen voor actuele vraagstukken uit de beroepspraktijk. Stages/praktijkleren en het werken aan beroepsproducten zorgen ervoor dat de student voldoende gelegenheid krijgt om zich beroepsvaardigheden eigen te maken. **Weging en Oordeel** Onderzoek is uitgewerkt, zoals de beoogde leerresultaten veronderstellen. Studenten zijn tevreden over de onderzoekscomponent waarbij de opleiding er op wijst dat er nog verbeterpunten zijn door meer samen te werken met lectoraten en onderzoekplatforms. Eerste initiatieven op dit terrein zijn zichtbaar. Professionele vaardigheden maken deel uit van het curriculum en zijn passend voor de professionele oriëntatie en het bachelorprogramma van de opleiding. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 2 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. Standaard 3: De inhoud van het programma biedt studenten de mogelijkheid om de beoogde leerresultaten te bereiken. Toelichting NVAO: De leerresultaten zijn adequaat vertaald in leerdoelen van (onderdelen van) het programma. Bevindingen Ten tijde van de audit bevond HRM zich in de laatste fase van een curriculumherziening. Het propedeutisch jaar van de voltijdvariant had toen twee jaar ‘gedraaid’ in de nieuwe vorm. Met ingang van het huidige studiejaar, 2018-2019, is HRM met de uitvoering van het nieuw vormgegeven derde voltijdstudiejaar gestart. Evenals bij het oude, thans uitfaserend, curriculum is de opleiding er ook hier in geslaagd bij beide opleidingsvarianten de praktijkcomponent goed te laten aansluiten op de theoriecomponent. Voor de deeltijdvariant geldt dat deze een min of meer synchroon verlopende ontwikkeling laat zien ten opzichte van de voltijdvariant. Daarbij is wel de keuze gemaakt om deeltijdstudenten naast een opleidingsdeel ook een faculteitsdeel aan te bieden hetgeen hen de gelegenheid biedt om in multidisciplinaire projecten samen te werken met studenten van de opleiding Facility Management bij modules zoals ‘International Experience’ en ‘Projectmanagement’. Ook bieden beide opleidingen de onderwijsmodules op de terreinen onderzoek en verandermanagement gezamenlijk aan. Voor HRM en Facility Management geldt dat 60 procent van het curriculum opleidingsspecifiek is, 40 procent verzorgen zij gezamenlijk. Het auditpanel waardeert deze samenwerking tussen opleidingen omdat zowel studenten als docenten in elkaars keuken kunnen kijken en zij interdisciplinair samenwerken. In het nieuwe voltijd- en deeltijdcurriculum van HRM staan vier actuele thema’s centraal die aansluiting bieden op recente ontwikkelingen in het vakgebied: Professionele Ontwikkeling, Organisatieontwikkeling, Vitaliteit en Talentontwikkeling. In de propedeuse besteedt de opleiding aan deze vier thema’s, omvang rond 14 EC, aandacht. In het daaropvolgende tweede en derde studiejaar vindt verdieping plaats van de thema’s die HRM gedurende een (deel van een) semester behandelt. Aan het eind van de opleiding beheersen studenten de competenties op niveau 1, in de hoofdfase 2 op niveau 2 en bij het afstuderen op niveau 3. Beide curricula, voltijd en deeltijd, garanderen de wisselwerking tussen theorie en praktijk in voldoende mate. Bij het ontwerp van de nieuwe curricula heeft HRM rekening gehouden met internationaliserings- en globaliseringsaspecten van het vakgebied. Het gaat dan tijdens de propedeuse met name om HRM-trends in de ons omringende landen. In de hoofdfase ligt de nadruk vooral op HRM-trends in Europa en daarbuiten. Verder besteedt de opleiding aandacht aan wereldburgerschap en cultuurverschillen in organisaties. Het auditpanel vindt het terecht en belangrijk dat HRM deze aspecten opneemt in haar curriculum. Wel kan zij studenten nadrukkelijker aanmoedigen om buiten de landsgrenzen stages te lopen en om hen meer te laten samenwerken met buitenlandse studenten. De gebruikte literatuur is relevant en actueel en biedt studenten een duidelijk overzicht van het vakgebied en de actuele thema’s. Studenten hebben een ruimte van 30 EC om te kiezen uit minoren of 12 EC uit keuzemodulen die de opleiding of hogeschool zelf aanbieden of die studenten buiten de onderwijsinstelling kunnen volgen. De examencommissie beslist in het laatste geval of zij hiervoor toestemming verleent. De door HRM zelf aangeboden minoren/keuzemodulen hebben onder andere betrekking op: Arbeidsbemiddeling, Geld en het Goede Leven en Vakmanschap. Volgens het auditpanel minoren/keuzemodulen die goed aansluiten bij ontwikkelingen in het beroepenveld. Voor studenten die meer uitdaging willen binnen het curriculum, bestaat de mogelijkheid de verdiepende talentminor ‘Creeër je eigen werk’ te volgen. Voor het uitfaserend curriculum heeft HRM enkele onderdelen opnieuw ontwikkeld, waaronder de handleiding van de stage die aansluit op het nieuwe landelijk profiel en gelden in het vierde jaar van de opleiding de nieuwe landelijke competenties. **Weging en Oordeel** De inhoud van het programma is dekkend voor de beoogde leerresultaten, waarbij de thema’s aansluiten bij actuele ontwikkelingen in het beroepenveld. Er is een goede balans tussen de theorie- en praktijkcomponent in het programma. Sterk is dat deeltijdstudenten van de opleiding verschillende modules volgen met studenten van de opleiding Facility Management. Internationalisering is uitgewerkt, zoals de beoogde leerresultaten veronderstellen waarbij het auditpanel opmerkt dat de opleiding studenten meer kan aanmoedigen om ook in het buitenland ervaring te verwerven. De minoren/keuzemodulen die de opleiding aanbiedt binnen de kaders van vrije studieruimte, sluiten prima aan bij actuele ontwikkelingen in het vakgebied. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 3 als goed voor beide opleidingsvarianten. Standaard 4: De vormgeving van het programma zet aan tot studeren en biedt studenten de mogelijkheid om de beoogde leerresultaten te bereiken. Toelichting NVAO: De vormgeving van het programma draagt bij aan de realisatie van de beoogde leerresultaten. De onderwijsleeromgeving bevordert dat studenten een actieve rol nemen in de vormgeving van het eigen leerproces (student-centred). De inrichting van de leeromgeving past bij de onderwijsvisie van de instelling. Bevindingen De opleiding gaat bij de vormgeving van het curriculum uit van het gedachtegoed van Vreugdehil (Breinkennis, Groningen, 2014). Voor het nieuwe curriculum geldt dat dit gecentreerd is rondom de vier eerder genoemde thema’s: talentontwikkeling, organisatieontwikkeling, vitaliteit/duurzame inzetbaarheid en professionele ontwikkeling. Per semester werken alle studenten aan twee thema’s. In de didactiek van de opleiding wordt de werkelijkheid van de beroepspraktijk gesimuleerd en geoefend. Binnen ieder thema staat een beroepsvraagstuk centraal waar studenten in groepen aan werken. De kenniscomponent komt bij ieder thema ruim aan bod. Professionals uit het werkveld zijn betrokken bij het onderwijs; de opleiding spreekt in dit verband van co-creatie met studenten en werkveld. Dit stimuleert studenten om zich breder te oriënteren binnen een module dan de opleiding van hen vraagt, een belangrijk punt volgens het auditpanel. Het leren bij beide opleidingsvarianten vindt plaats binnen de kaders van een leerlandschap waarbij docenten en studenten samenkomen en vier à zes docenten het onderwijs per thema verzorgen. De daarbij gehanteerde werkvormen variëren van workshops, projectgroepen, trainingen tot en met coachingsgesprekken. De opleiding zet steeds meer in op een digitale leeromgeving. Zo vraagt zij van haar studenten om tijdens de lessen informatie op te zoeken en mee te doen aan online polls. Ook bij de vormgeving van presentaties maken studenten gebruik van ICT-voorzieningen. In de propedeuse en in de hoofdfase is keuzeonderwijs geprogrammeerd waarbij de student kiest uit het aanbod van de hogeschool of zelf met een voorstel komt om invulling te geven aan het keuzeonderwijs. Dit moet gemotiveerd gebeuren met toestemming van de opleiding. In de laatste fase van de studie staat de MAD-opdracht centraal. Hierbij werkt de student aan een praktijkprobleem en voert hij individueel praktijkgericht onderzoek uit. Voltijd- en deeltijdstudent volgen gezamenlijk de afstudeerkringen waarbij zij hun ervaringen uitwisselen bij het werken aan de afstudeeropdracht. Voor de deeltijdvariant geldt dat studenten in de studiejaren 1 en 2 eveneens werken aan de bovengenoemde vier thema’s. Ook nemen zij met studenten van de faculteit Management en Organisatie deel aan modules waar multidisciplinaire projecten centraal staan. In het derde studiejaar volgt de deeltijder verdiepende modules rondom de HRM-thema’s: ‘Strategisch recruitment’, ‘International HRM’, ‘Coaching’ en ‘HRM Analytics’. In het vierde studiejaar sluit de deeltijdstudent het thematisch onderwijs af en kan hij een minor volgen en start hij met het afstudeertraject MAD. Deeltijders dienen te beschikken over een relevante werkomgeving. De koppeling tussen theorie en de praktijk van de student wordt samengebracht in de modules ‘Werkplekleren’ waarbij de student de thema’s uit het onderwijs aan de eigen beroepspraktijk koppelt. Voor het uitsazerende curriculum geldt dat de inrichting van het vierde studiejaar is gewijzigd met betrekking tot de MAD-opdracht/het afstudeertraject. Sinds het vorige studiejaar werkt de opleiding met afstudeerkringen waarbij studenten tweewekelijks bijeenkomen gedurende een semester om onder begeleiding van docenten te bespreken waar ze staan in hun MAD-traject. Verder volgen zij leeractiviteiten waar zij behoefte aan hebben waardoor HRM aansluit bij de mogelijkheden die student-centraal onderwijs biedt. Weging en Oordeel Het curriculum is dusdanig vormgegeven dat de studenten de beoogde leerresultaten kunnen behalen, mede door het heldere didactisch concept en de daarbij door de opleiding gehanteerde inzichtelijke structuur en opbouw van zowel het voltijd- als het deeltijdcurriculum. De toegepaste didactiek en werkvormen sluiten goed aan op doelgroep. Studenten participeren actief in het onderwijs. Het leerlandschap en de docenten bevorderen in hoge mate dat studenten actief hun eigen leerproces vormgeven. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 4 als goed voor beide opleidingsvarianten. Standaard 5: Het programma sluit aan bij de kwalificaties van de instromende studenten. Toelichting NVAO: De gehanteerde toelatingseisen zijn realistisch met het oog op de beoogde leerresultaten. Bevindingen Veruit de meeste studenten die de opleiding instromen, hebben een havo- of mbo-achtergrond. Als voorbereiding op de HRM-opleiding kunnen aspirant-studenten open dagen en meeloopdagen bezoeken evenals matchingsdagen, ook kunnen zij proefstuderen of zich oriënteren via de website en de facebookpagina die wordt beheerd door de PR-commissie. Vanaf het huidige studiejaar integreert de opleiding rekenen en taal in de onderwijsthemas. Studenten die achterstand vertonen krijgen extra lessen en tutoring op het terrein van taal en rekenen. De opleiding kent een aanzienlijke instroom van niet-westerse studenten die hieraan deelnemen. De opleiding neemt deel aan de pilot topklas havo, een gezamenlijk traject van De Haagse Hogeschool en het middelbaar onderwijs in de regio. Hierbij onderzoeken zij bij talentvolle havo-5 leerlingen die onderpresteren, waar hun talenten liggen en om doelen voor hen te formuleren voor vervolgonderwijs. Voor de begeleiding van deze havisten zet de opleiding studenten in die de minor ‘Creëer je eigen werk’ volgen. Verder participeert de opleiding in het doorstroomtraject mbo-hbo. Doel is om havo- en mbo-leerlingen beter voor te bereiden op een hbo-opleiding. Het auditpanel waardeert dit. HRM kent een vrije keuzeruimte waarbij voor zowel voltijd- als deeltijdstudenten geldt dat zij studieonderdelen kiezen die passen binnen hun eigen persoonlijke ontwikkeling, hetgeen didactisch aansluit bij meer student-centraal onderwijs. De student neemt daarbij meer verantwoordelijkheid voor zijn ontwikkeling en het biedt HRM de gelegenheid om maatwerk te leveren. Ook kunnen studenten zelf met initiatieven komen om studieonderdelen (elders) te volgen waarbij zij dit eerst met de studiecoach bespreken. Talentvolle studenten kunnen naast het reguliere curriculum ook de verdiepende Talentminor ‘Creëer je eigen werk’ volgen. Studenten die bovengemiddeld scoren tijdens de propedeuse, kunnen naar een plek binnen deze minor solliciteren. Studenten krijgen de gelegenheid om zich als professional verder te ontwikkelen, met name op het terrein van de ondernemende HRM'er. Zes studenten die deze minor volgden zijn versneld afgestudeerd. Voor deeltijdstudenten geldt dat zij een intakegesprek voeren met een docent. Doel hierbij is om de deeltijder een helder beeld te verschaffen van de opleiding en daarbij elkaars verwachtingen af te stemmen. Verder is het van belang dat de deeltijdstudent voldoet aan instapcriteria zoals het minimaal over twee jaar werkvervaring beschikken op een voor HRM relevant terrein/positie, tenminste 24 uur per week werken bij een organisatie met een personele omvang van minimaal 25 fte. Studenten van beide opleidingsvarianten waarderen de aansluiting van HRM op de vooropleiding met een ruime 6. Uit onderwijsevaluaties blijkt dat studenten vooral aan het werken in het studielandschap moeten wennen. Het propedeuserendement is de afgelopen jaren sterk gestegen. Zo bedroeg het aantal P-geslaagden na één jaar in 2012 5,3 procent. In 2016 was dit gestegen naar 29,9 procent. Nog steeds laag volgens het auditpanel maar op dit terrein heeft HRM wel een forse inhaalslag gemaakt, een lijn die zij de komende jaren moet doortrekken. De opleiding kent wel nog relatief veel langstudeerders die het oude, uitfaserende, curriculum volgen. Weging en Oordeel HRM houdt rekening met de vooropleiding van de groep instromende studenten, heeft remediërende programmaonderdelen in de propedeuse opgenomen op het terrein van taal en rekenen en voert intakegesprekken met alle deeltijders. De opleiding stemt met het middelbaar beroepsonderwijs in de regio af. HRM biedt talentvolle studenten de mogelijkheid om zich verder te ontwikkelen. Het rendement is de afgelopen jaren sterk verbeterd. Van belang is dat HRM deze opgaande lijn weet vast te houden en te versterken. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 5 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 4.3. Personeel Standaard 6: Het docententeam is gekwalificeerd voor de inhoudelijke en onderwijskundige realisatie van het programma en de omvang ervan is toereikend. Toelichting NVAO: De docenten zijn zowel inhoudelijk als didactisch voldoende deskundig om de opleiding te verzorgen. Het personeelsbeleid draagt daar aan bij. Er is voldoende personeel beschikbaar om de opleiding te verzorgen en de studenten te begeleiden. Bevindingen De opleiding heeft de docent/studentratio teruggebracht tot 1:24, d.w.z. voldoende docenten ingezet. Docenten zijn over het algemeen tevreden over hun werkomstandigheden, de mogelijkheden tot professionalisering en de werkomgeving. Op deze facetten laat HRM een stijgende lijn zien over de periode 2013-2017 en behoort zij met haar scores inmiddels tot de hoogste van de onderwijsinstelling. HRM stelt op korte termijn een professionaliseringsplan op waarmee zij de scholingsbehoeftes van docenten ook vanuit organisatieperspectief bepaalt. Hierin beschrijft de opleiding onder andere maatregelen om te komen tot meer docenten die beschikken over een Senior Kwalificatie Examinering. De opleiding stimuleert deskundigheidsbevordering binnen de kaders van de Resultaat & Ontwikkelingsgesprekken; hiervoor is tien procent van de aanstelling van docenten gereserveerd. HRM zet docenten in op basis van hun ambitie, talent en voorkeuren. Een persoonlijk inzetplan en een ontwikkelplan zijn hierbij behulpzaam. Docenten kiezen veelal voor die onderwerpen, waar zij het meest affectie mee hebben en waarvan zij over de meeste kennis beschikken. Docenten werken in wisselend samengestelde teams, waarbij HRM gebruik maakt van didactische verschillen tussen de lesmethoden die docenten hanteren. Ook kunnen docenten bij elkaar ‘in de keuken te kijken’. Teamlunches biedt de docent gelegenheid om kennis te maken met de kennis en expertise van collega-docenten en om te discussiëren over actuele ontwikkelingen op vakinhoudelijk en didactisch terrein. Een sterk punt van de opleiding daar waar het docentontwikkeling betreft en het tevens de cohesie van het docententeam stimuleert. De opleiding stimuleert haar docenten om te blijven werken aan hun onderzoeksvaardigheden. Drie docenten participeren inmiddels in een kenniskring, één docent volgt een promotietraject en één docent werkt samen met een organisatieadviesbureau en onderzoekt daarbij samen met studenten HRM trends. Op basis van de cv’s van docenten en het auditgesprek stelt het auditpanel vast, dat zij voldoende zijn toegerust om de hen tobedeelde studieonderdelen te verzorgen. 84 Procent beschikt over ten minste een masteropleiding (wo of hbo), 16 procent heeft een bacheloropleiding afgerond. Een deel van het team docenten is uit het werkveld afkomstig, heeft ruime contacten met het werkveld en is daarbij aangesloten bij de beroepsvereniging van HRM’ers. De praktijkervaring van docenten is volgens studenten van meerwaarde voor het onderwijs. Hun internationaal netwerk verdient nog aandacht, een gegeven dat de opleiding erkent. Zij zet inmiddels in op verdere internationalisering conform de Roadmap 2020. Het auditpanel waardeert dit. Studenten van beide varianten geven aan in ruime mate tevreden te zijn over hun docenten, zowel wat betreft hun vakinhoudelijke kennis als hun didactische kwaliteiten. HRM zet versterkt in op resultaatverantwoordelijke teams hetgeen vraagt om teamleren en teamontwikkeling waarvoor inmiddels interventies zijn gestart. Als voorbereiding op een thema zijn er intervisiegroepen waar docenten hun kennis en ervaringen uitwisselen rond dat thema. Zo heeft het volledige HRM docententeam deelgenomen aan de scholingsdagen Projectmatig Creëren en Resultaatgericht Werken. Een aandachtspunt vormt de door docenten ervaren werkdruk. Bij de onderwijsvernieuwing heeft HRM maatregelen genomen om de werkdruk tegen te gaan. Hiertoe behoren: facilitering in tijd van docenten die onderwijs ontwikkelen, een vast rooster, werken in teams en het tegengaan van versnippering van taken. **Weging en Oordeel** Uit een door de opleiding verstrekten overzicht van kwalificaties van het docententeam en uit het auditgesprek blijkt een ruime dekking van deskundigheden die nodig zijn om het curriculum te verzorgen. De docenten professionaliseren zich stelselmatig en de opleiding faciliteert dit; er is sprake van een professionaliseringscultuur. De werkdruk van docenten en hun oriëntatie op het internationale werk- en opleidingsveld vormen nog een punt van aandacht. Beide aspecten staan een goede en gedegen uitvoering van het onderwijsprogramma niet in de weg; studenten bevestigen dit en zijn in ruime mate tevreden over de didactische en vakinhoudelijke kwaliteiten van hun docenten. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 6 als goed voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 4.4. Voorzieningen Standaard 7: De huisvesting en de materiële voorzieningen zijn toereikend voor de realisatie van het programma. Toelichting NVAO: De huisvesting van de opleiding en de voorzieningen passen bij de beoogde leerresultaten en de onderwijsleeromgeving. Bevindingen De Haagse Hogeschool beschikt over standaard faciliteiten waar alle opleidingen, dus ook HRM, gebruik van maken. Dit betreft bijvoorbeeld de hogeschoolbrede ICT-infrastructuur maar ook de werkcollegezalen in het leerlandschap. Studenten en docenten kunnen terecht in de ruim bemeten bibliotheek waar zij tijdschriften, boeken en digitale bronnen kunnen raadplegen. De stilteruimten en ruimten waar studenten kunnen samenwerken zijn veelal goed bezet. De opleiding merkt wel op dat de onderwijsruimten soms vol en gehorig zijn. Een omvangrijke verbouwing moet hier de komende jaren verbetering in brengen. HRM betrekt studenten bij haar zoektocht naar het zo optimaal mogelijk werken in het leerlandschap. HRM maakt gebruik van ICT-voorzieningen waaronder Blackboard en het studentennet. Deze voorziening lijkt wel tegen haar grenzen aan te lopen wat de belasting betreft: wifi is meer dan eens traag door het gebruik tijdens piekmomenten. Voor een oplossing is de opleiding afhankelijk van hogeschoolbrede maatregelen. Voor stages en afstuderen zet HRM OnStage in, software die de hele workflow vanuit zowel student- als docentperspectief ondersteunt. Wat betreft de roostering hanteert de opleiding een strakke planning: een vast rooster tijdens een semester in het leerlandschap. Positief is dat sinds de ingang van het nieuwe vaste rooster er geen lessen meer zijn uitgevallen. Bijna alle onderwijsactiviteiten vinden plaats in het leerlandschap. De creatie van dit leerlandschap heeft ertoe geleid dat studenten en docenten meer contact hebben. Weging en Oordeel De huisvesting is zodanig dat studenten in de regel beschikken over voldoende werkplekken. De faciliteiten waaronder apparatuur, bibliotheek, leerlandschap en stilteruimten zijn van een kwaliteit die bijdraagt aan een adequaat geoutilleerd studieklimaat. De opleiding heeft zicht op knelpunten, maar is voor de oplossing ervan afhankelijk van maatregelen op hogeschoolniveau. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 7 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. Standaard 8: De studiebegeleiding en de informatievoorziening aan studenten bevorderen de studievoortgang en sluiten aan bij de behoefte van studenten. Toelichting NVAO: Studenten ontvangen een passende begeleiding (ook in het geval van een functiebeperking). De informatievoorziening van de opleiding is adequaat. Bevindingen Studiebegeleiding In het nieuwe curriculum is de studiebegeleiding ondergebracht binnen het thema Professionele Ontwikkeling. In de propedeuse hebben voltijdstudenten ten minste twee voortgangsgesprekken met de studiecoach/studieloopbaanbegeleider. In de daaropvolgende jaren hebben studenten jaarlijks één keer zo’n gesprek en indien nodig een of meerdere aanvullende gesprekken. Binnen dit thema biedt de opleiding haar studenten studievaardigheden aan die onder andere betrekking hebben op het leren leren en leerstijlen. Studenten die extra begeleiding nodig hebben kunnen het programma Tutoring volgen. Ouderejaarsstudenten begeleiden daarbij propedeusestudenten. Voor studenten met een functionele beperking schakelt HRM een ‘aandachtsfunctionaris’ in die er voor zorgdraagt dat de student de juiste begeleiding krijgt en tevens zijn aanspreekpunt vormt binnen de opleiding. Voor het uitsfaserende voltijdcurriculum en de deeltijdvariant geldt dat iedere student een eigen begeleider heeft die de student gedurende de hele opleiding begeleidt. Studenten spreken twee keer per jaar af met hun begeleider waarbij de studievoortgang centraal staat. HRM heeft de afgelopen jaren geïnvesteerd in het verbeteren van de studiebegeleiding. Ook is in het nieuwe curriculum de contacttijd toegenomen. De invoering van het nieuwe curriculum leidt tot, in de terminologie van de opleiding, ‘opstartproblemen’. De organisatie van het onderwijs en de informatievoorziening zijn daardoor nog niet optimaal. Studenten beoordelen de begeleiding met een 3 op een vijfpuntsschaal. Het blijft daarmee een aandachtspunt voor HRM; de opleiding onderkent dit en neemt maatregelen. Informatievoorziening De studiegids vormt voor studenten een belangrijke informatiebron. Bij aanvang van een studiejaar bespreken docenten en studenten de studieroute aan de hand van deze studiegids. Met behulp van OSIRIS stelt de opleiding haar studenten in de gelegenheid om de studievoortgang te volgen. Verder is in OSIRIS en op Blackboard alle opleidingsrelevante informatie, waaronder de modules, beschreven. Communicatie via e-mail is verder teruggedrongen door het studentennet en Blackboard. Studenten beoordelen de informatievoorziening net onder 3.0 op een vijfpuntsschaal. Weging en Oordeel Studiebegeleiding is in iedere fase van de studie afdoende belegd waarbij deze is afgestemd op de student (vt/dt/leeftijd/werkervaring). De studiebegeleiding stuurt op het voorkomen van studievertraging waarbij het auditpanel in navolging van de opleiding vaststelt dat de organisatie van het onderwijs en de informatievoorziening door de implementatie van het nieuwe onderwijs nog een aandachtspunt vormt. De opleiding heeft hier oog voor en neemt maatregelen. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 8 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 4.5. Kwaliteitszorg **Standaard 9: De opleiding kent een expliciete en breed gedragen kwaliteitszorg, bevordert de kwaliteitscultuur en is gericht op ontwikkeling.** *Toelichting NVAO:* De opleiding organiseert effectieve periodieke feedback die de realisatie van de beoogde leerresultaten ondersteunt. Bij bestaande opleidingen vinden geëigende verbeteringen plaats naar aanleiding van de uitkomsten van de vorige beoordeling. Hierbij worden passende evaluatie- en meetactiviteiten ingezet. De uitkomsten van deze evaluatie vormen aantoonbaar de basis voor ontwikkeling en verbetering. De opleiding legt intern verantwoording af over de bijdrage van de opleiding aan het realiseren van de strategische doelen van de instelling. Kwaliteitszorg verzekert realisatie van de beoogde leerresultaten. Bij de interne kwaliteitszorg zijn de opleidings- en examencommissies, medewerkers, studenten, alumni en het afnemende beroepenveld van de opleiding actief betrokken. De ontwerpprocessen en de erkenning en borging van de kwaliteit van de opleiding zijn in overeenstemming met de ESG. De opleiding publiceert accurate, betrouwbare en voor de doelgroepen goed toegankelijke informatie over de kwaliteit van de opleiding. **Bevindingen** Zowel uit de auditgesprekken als uit de door HRM beschikbaar gestelde informatie blijkt de opleiding kritisch te zijn over alle aspecten die te maken hebben met haar kwaliteit(scultuur). Ze is naar het auditpanel open in haar ontwikkelmogelijkheden en in de wijze waarop zij werkt aan de verdere verbetering van de opleidingskwaliteit over de volle breedte. Zo is HRM sinds de accreditatie in 2010 nog twee keer geaudit, in 2014 en 2016. Kwamen uit de accreditatie in 2010 een beperkt aantal aanbevelingen naar voren, in beide daaropvolgende audits kwamen meerdere aandachtspunten naar voren die volgens het auditpanel dat de accreditatieaudit thans, 2018, uitvoert als relevant kwalificeert. Zo heeft HRM naar aanleiding van de audit in 2014 verbeteracties genomen rondom de student-docent ratio en de borging van het eindniveau. Ook de studeerbaarheid van het curriculum en de integratie van onderzoek waren een thema. Naar aanleiding van de ‘monitor 2016’ heeft de opleiding onder andere maatregelen genomen op het gebied van alumnibeleid en de betrokkenheid van de examencommissie bij het gerealiseerd eindniveau versterkt door steekproefsgewijs afstudeerwerken te beoordelen. De opleiding heeft een uitgebreide swot-analyse gemaakt, waarbij alle belanghebbende partijen waaronder studenten, de opleidingscommissie en werkveld betrokken zijn en waarin zij haar sterke en zwakke kanten beschrijft alsmede de kansen en bedreigingen. Het auditpanel gaf deze analyse een beeld van de kwaliteit van de opleiding én van de wijze waarop HRM handen en voeten geeft aan kwaliteitszorg. Tot de sterke punten van de opleiding behoren de sterke betrokkenheid van het werkveld, de flexibiliteit van het curriculum en de recente instroom van docenten. Als ‘zwak’ kwalificeert de opleiding onder andere de lage instroom van de deeltijd en de studenttevredenheid die nog niet op het gewenste niveau is maar wel stijgt door het vernieuwde onderwijs. Kansen ziet de opleiding intern op het terrein van digitalisering (vb. digitalisering van toetsen); digitalisering vormt echter tevens een bedreiging voor toekomstige HR-functies. Als kans ziet HRM ook om de betrokkenheid van het MKB te vergroten en zo de toekomstmogelijkheden voor studenten te vergroten. Deze swot-analyse vormt volgens het auditpanel een gedegen instrument om kwaliteitszorg verder handen en voeten te geven. **Weging en Oordeel** Binnen de opleiding is sprake van een kwaliteitscultuur, waarbij alle betrokkenen als vanzelfsprekend vanuit kwaliteitsbewustzijn en –verbetering handelen. De opleiding wordt regelmatig geëvalueerd waarbij een swot-analyse een beeld geeft van de sterke punten en de ontwikkelkanten van HRM. De opleiding neemt vervolgens maatregelen waarbij zij aanknopping zoekt bij de ontwikkelpunten uit de evaluaties. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 9 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 4.6. Toetsing **Standaard 10: De opleiding beschikt over een adequaat systeem van toetsing.** *Toelichting NVAO:* De beoordeling is valide, betrouwbaar en voldoende onafhankelijk. De kwaliteit van de tentaminering en examinering wordt voldoende gewaarborgd en voldoet aan de wettelijke deugdelijkheidsvereisten. De examencommissie oefent haar wettelijke bevoegdheid uit. De toetsen ondersteunen het eigen leerproces van de student. **Bevindingen** De opleiding onderscheidt verschillende toetsvormen waaronder de mc-vragen (met name in de propedeuse), het adviesrapport voor een externe opdrachtgever en het portfolio waarin de student verschillende opdrachten heeft uitgewerkt. Elk van de vier thema’s die de opleiding onderscheidt, Professionele Ontwikkeling, Organisatieontwikkeling, Vitaliteit en Talentontwikkeling toetst de opleiding op drie verschillende wijzen: 1) via een door de student te maken cumulatieve kennistoets om daarmee de kennisbasis te toetsen, 2) via een assessment waarbij de vaardigheden worden getoetst en 3) met een door de student op te leveren beroepsproduct uit de praktijk waarmee de kerncompetenties worden getoetst. HRM toetst behalve summatief ook formatief door middel van onder andere tussentijdse feedback op studentproducten en consultaties bij begeleidende docenten. Bij de beoordeling van stages geven begeleiders afkomstig van het stagebedrijf een advies. Twee examinatoren van de opleiding beoordelen de afstudeeropdracht (MAD-opdracht). Studenten treffen informatie aan over toetsen en toetsing in *OSIRIS* en op *Blackboard*. Ook de studiegids geeft relevante informatie over toetsingsprocedures. In het toetsdossier zijn alle relevante zaken opgenomen op het terrein van het toetsen van een thema. De toetsmatrijs geeft studenten inzicht in de leerdoelen die bijdragen aan het behalen van de competenties en het niveau ervan. Voor alle toetsen geldt, dat tenminste twee docenten bij de ontwikkeling ervan betrokken zijn. Twee docenten beoordelen het student assessment. De toetscommissie beoordeelt toetsen op omvang, opmaak, vraagstelling, validiteit en betrouwbaarheid. Zij houdt alle nieuwe toetsen tegen het licht en beoordeelt bestaande toetsen steekproefsgewijs. Voor de beoordeling van toetsen zijn *rubrics* opgesteld evenals een antwoordmodel of een beoordelingsformulier. Het auditpanel heeft een aantal toetsen beoordeeld en kwalificeert het niveau ervan als voldoende. Het auditteam constateert dat de opleiding haar studenten voldoende gelegenheid biedt om hun kennis en inzicht op verschillende manieren te etaleren, hetzij in het portfolio, hetzij in een toets of een ander door de student op te leveren product. *Examen- en toetscommissie* De opleiding heeft een onafhankelijk opererende examen- en toetscommissie. Eerstgenoemde voert zelfstandig aanvullend onderzoek uit naar toetsen die een opvallend resultaat tonen of waar zij onregelmatigheden vermoedt. De examencommissie stelt vast wie HRM als examinator inzet, stelt het toetshandboek vast om vervolgens toe te zien op de naleving ervan. Ook is zij verantwoordelijk voor de borging van het niveau van de toetsen. Haar bevindingen legt zij vast in een jaarverslag. De examencommissie voert een steekproef uit naar de kwaliteit van de eindwerkstukken. De bevindingen van deze steekproef zijn onderdeel van de kwaliteitscyclus van het gerealiseerd eindniveau. Het faculteitsbureau bewaakt de procedures rondom toetsing die zijn vastgelegd in het toetshandboek. De toetscommissie richt zich op het toetsprogramma, de toetsen, toetsorganisatie en toetsbekwaamheid en voert haar taken uit in opdracht van de examencommissie. De toetscommissie richt zich verder op deskundigheidsbevordering hetgeen ertoe heeft geleid dat drie leden van de toetscommissie SKE zijn opgeleid. Opleidingsbreed organiseert HRM jaarlijks trainingsbijeenkomsten waarbij toetsontwikkelaars toetsen ontwikkelen en deze bespreken. Toetsing eindniveau Het eindniveau toetst HRM op het hoogste niveau voor de voltijd, niveau 3, op basis van de MAD-opdracht (methodisch adviseren), en op basis van het eindassessment. Voor de deeltijd gebeurt dit op basis van een praktijkverslag. Voor het uitfaserend voltijdprogramma geldt dat voltijdstudenten deelnemen aan een extra assessment dat bestaat uit een opdracht waarbij deze laat zien dat hij een casus uit de beroepspraktijk kan oplussen. Hij bedenkt daarbij interventies en baseert zich bij de uitkomst op relevante literatuur. Afsluitend vindt er een individueel gesprek plaats met twee examinatoren. Voor de deeltijd geldt dat studenten in het uitfaserend programma met het praktijkverslag en daarin opgenomen bewijsstukken aantonen dat zij alle competenties op het hoogste niveau beheersen. De eindwerkstukken zijn bestudeerd door de leden van de werkveldcommissie die op basis hiervan input leveren aan HRM over hun bevindingen. Deze beoordeelt het niveau van de afstudeerwerken als goed. Het auditpanel stelt vast dat HRM voldoende relevante partijen betrekt bij de borging van het gerealiseerd eindniveau. De afstudeeropdracht, Methodisch adviseren, bestaat uit twee componenten: onderzoek doen en adviseren. De student verwerft zelf bij een organisatie een opdracht over een organisatieve vraagstuk dat bij beantwoording leidt tot het verbeteren van organisatiedoelstellingen. Het onderzoek dat de student uitvoert, mondt uit in een rapportage die voor de organisatie bruikbare adviezen dient te bevatten. Begeleiding van de student vindt plaats door de docent en een begeleider vanuit de organisatie waar de student aan zijn opdracht werkt. De beoordelende docent en de adviserende begeleider bestuderen onafhankelijk van elkaar het rapport. Het oordeel van de docent en het advies daarbij van de begeleider vormen de basis voor de bepaling van het eindcijfer. Het adviesgesprek vindt plaats in aanwezigheid van de opdrachtgever en de beoordelende docent. Het auditpanel vindt dit afstudeerproces adequaat vormgegeven en passend voor een HRM-bachelor. Het auditpanel stelt vast dat de beoordelingsformulieren niet in alle gevallen volledig zijn ingevuld door de beoordelaars. Zo trof het auditpanel in een aantal gevallen een beoordelingsformulier aan zonder toelichting hetgeen de navolgbaarheid van het gegeven eindoordeel onvoldoende inzichtelijk maakte. Ook kan de inhoudelijke kwaliteit van de beoordeling beter zodat deze voor de student leidt tot meerwaarde: wat heb ik goed gedaan, wat verdient verbetering. Weging en Oordeel De opleiding beschikt over een opleidingsbreed, transparant en coherent toetsbeleid. De toetsing gebeurt betrouwbaar daar waar dit het meer-ogen principe betreft. Het toetsproces verloopt voor studenten transparant. De toetsen representeren het bachelorniveau. De examencommissie en het werkveld houden zicht op het gerealiseerde niveau. De examencommissie vervult haar wettelijke taken, is sparring partner van het management, is deskundig en onafhankelijk. De toetscommissie ondersteunt de examencommissie bij deze wettelijke taken. Beoordelaars kunnen meer aandacht besteden bij de beoordeling van het afstudeerwerk aan omvang en navolgbaarheid van hun feedback en de motivatie voor het toegekende cijfer. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 10 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 4.7. Gerealiseerde leerresultaten **Standaard 11: De opleiding toont aan dat de beoogde leerresultaten worden gerealiseerd.** *Toelichting NVAO:* Het realiseren van de beoogde leerresultaten blijkt uit de uitkomsten van toetsen, de eindwerken en de wijze waarop afgestudeerden in de praktijk of in een vervolgopleiding functioneren. **Bevindingen** Methodisch adviseren (MAD) vormt de eindopdracht in het laatste studiejaar en onderscheidt twee componenten: het onderzoek en adviseren. De student voert de opdracht individueel uit. Het auditpanel heeft voorafgaand aan de audit uit een lijst met afstudeerwerken naar rato in totaal vijftien afstudeerproducten bestudeerd en deze beoordeeld van voltijd- en deeltijdsstudenten. Daarbij ontstaat het volgende beeld. De afstudeerwerken richten zich op relevante vraagstukken uit de beroepspraktijk en kenmerken zich door een veelal operationele insteek. Het auditpanel stelt vast dat alle vijftien afstudeerwerken het hbo-bachelorniveau representeren en kwalificeert deze daarmee als ‘voldoende’. Inhoudelijk had een deel van de afstudeerwerken sterker gekund met meer diepgang. Om de student de kans te bieden meer te presteren waarbij hij boven het oordeel ‘voldoende’ uitstijgt, kan de opleiding meer sturen op de vragen: is het praktijkonderzoek of is er veelmeer sprake van wetenschappelijk onderzoek? Binnen het nieuwe curriculum is meer aandacht voor het onderzoekend vermogen van studenten door inbedding ervan in de thema’s. Studenten komen hierdoor meer in aanraking met alle aspecten van onderzoek. Studenten lijken nu vooral een vast format te volgen, hetgeen ten koste kan gaan van de meer creatieve component bij het afstuderen. De taalcomponent verdient aandacht. Daar moet de opleiding sterker op sturen. Uit het gesprek met alumni en vertegenwoordigers uit het werkveld is het beeld ontstaan dat zij tevreden zijn over de opleiding en over de kwaliteit van het afstudeerniveau. Ruim 80 procent van de studenten vindt een baan op hbo-niveau na afstuderen; ongeveer 10 procent studeert verder. **Weging en Oordeel** Het auditpanel stelt vast dat HRM-studenten met de afstudeerproducten laten zien dat zij de beoogde leerresultaten hebben behaald. Wel kan de opleiding een ‘tandje bijschakelen’ wat betreft de kwaliteit van de afstudeerproducten. Het werkveld is tevreden over de kwaliteit en het functioneren van de alumni; laatstgenoemden vinden dat de opleiding hen adequaat heeft voorbereid op het werkveld. Het auditpanel beoordeelt standaard 11 als voldoende voor beide opleidingsvarianten. 5. ALGEMEEN EINDOORDEEL Het gekwalificeerde docententeam van de hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management van De Haagse Hogeschool zorgt ervoor dat het afnemende werkveld beschikt over startbekwame hbo-afgestudeerde HRM’ers die vakinhoudelijk en wat vaardigheden betreft voldoende zijn toegerust. Het auditpanel beoordeelt de standaarden 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 en 11 als ‘voldoende’ en de standaarden 3, 4 en 6 als ‘goed’. Op grond van de beslisregels van de NVAO komt het auditpanel voor de opleiding als geheel tot het eindoordeel ‘voldoende’ voor de hbo-bacheloropleiding HRM van De Haagse Hogeschool in de voltijd- en deeltijd variant. Het panel adviseert de NVAO dan ook de hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management van De Haagse Hogeschool opnieuw te accrediteren voor een periode van zes jaar. ©Hobéon Certificering | Beoordelingsrapport hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management, De Haagse Hogeschool | v3.0AVG | 26 6. AANBEVELINGEN - In de propedeusefase is de begeleiding van studenten voldoende intensief. Blijf zorgdragen voor een goede begeleiding van langstudeerders en kijk of je maatregelen kunt nemen om hun aantal de komende jaren substantieel te verminderen. - Evalueer het nieuwe curriculum regelmatig en neem indien nodig maatregelen die je opleidingsbreed communiceert. - De informatievoorziening was en is een aandachtspunt. Kijk eens om je heen hoe andere opleidingen van De Haagse Hogeschool dit op een slimme manier hebben georganiseerd. - Besteed meer aandacht aan het talig vermogen van studenten. Voor HRM’ers is een goede schriftelijke uitdrukkingssvaardigheid belangrijk. - Op het terrein van rendementsverbetering heeft de opleiding een behoorlijke inhaalslag gemaakt. Blijf hierin investeren, bijvoorbeeld door de binding met je studenten verder te verbeteren/intensiveren. Andere HRM-opleidingen zijn de Haagse opleiding hierin voorgegaan. - Betrek de werkveldcommissie nog intensiever bij de opleiding dan thans al het geval is omdat de ontwikkelingen erg snel gaan. ©Hobéon Certificering | Beoordelingsrapport hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management, De Haagse Hogeschool | v3.0AVG | 28 | Onderwerpen / Standaarden | Ordeel | |---------------------------|--------| | **Beoogde leerresultaten**| | | Standaard 1.

Daarin staan de standaarden vermeld waarop een auditpanel zich bij de uitgebreide opleidingsbeoordeling van een opleiding moet richten en de criteria aan de hand waarvan het panel zijn oordeel over de opleiding moet bepalen. Op basis van de door opleiding verstrekte documentatie heeft het auditpanel zich een beeld kunnen vormen van de primaire en secundaire processen van de voltijd- en deeltijdvariant. De visitatie was gericht op een verificatie van de bevindingen uit de documentenanalyse en het verkrijgen van aanvullende informatie over de inhoud van het programma. Dit geschiedde door gesprekken met vertegenwoordigers van de opleiding, studenten en het werkveld, die waren te kenschetsen als ‘gesprekken tussen vakgenoten’. De verificatie door het auditpanel geschiedde door verscheidene malen hetzelfde onderwerp met verschillende geledingen te bespreken en aan de hand van additionele documentatie en - daar waar het de huisvesting en de materiële voorzieningen betreft - ook door eigen waarneming. Na overleg met de betreffende opleiding heeft het auditpanel met in achtneming van de daartoe strekkende regels van de NVAO en op basis van zijn documentenalyse en de daaruit voortvloeiende specifieke aandachtspunten de keuze van de gesprekspartners vastgesteld. De visitatie binnen dit cluster is uitgevoerd door verschillende visitatiebureaus waarbij Hobéon drie HRM opleidingen beoordeelt: die van de Hogeschool Rotterdam, De Haagse Hogeschool en NCOI. Afstemming tussen alle deelpanels heeft allereerst plaatsgevonden door de instructie die de panelleden krijgen met betrekking tot het beoordelingskader. De tussen de evaluatiebureaus gekalibreerde criteria voor de beoordeling, maken onderdeel uit van deze instructie. Daaraan voorafgaand is de afstemming geborgd door overlap in de bezetting tussen alle deelpanels. Daarnaast is, rekening houdend met het feit dat elke opleidingsbeoordeling een individuele beoordeling betreft, vanuit de overlap in de bezetting, waar relevant voortschrijdend gereflecteerd op vorige bezoeken binnen deze visitatietgroep. Verder wordt de afstemming tussen de panels geborgd door de ondersteuning van zo veel mogelijk dezelfde secretaris vanuit zowel Hobéon als NQA en door de inzet van getrainde voorzitters. Het oordeel van het auditpanel vastgelegd in een conceptrapport werd aan de opleiding voorgelegd voor een toets op eventuele feitelijke onjuistheden. Beslisregels Volgens de NVAO-Beslisregels Accreditatie kan een onderwerp ‘onvoldoende’, ‘voldoende’, ‘goed’ of ‘excellent’ scoren. Hobéon heeft de beslisregels toegepast, zoals deze zijn opgenomen in het ‘Beoordelingskader accreditatiestelsel hoger onderwijs Nederland, September 2016’. Wanneer er sprake is van verschillende varianten van een opleiding (bijvoorbeeld: voltijd, deeltijd en duaal), dan moet uit de beoordeling blijken dat voor elke variant de kwaliteit is gewaarborgd op grond van de standaarden uit het betreffende beoordelingskader om te komen tot een positief eindoordeel over de opleiding. Indien een opleiding onder één CROHO-registratie wordt aangeboden op meerdere locaties, kan de opleiding alleen voor accreditatie in aanmerking komen als uit de beoordeling blijkt dat elke locatie voldoet aan de in het betreffende kader genoemde kwaliteitsstandaarden. Uitgebreide opleidingsbeoordeling - Het eindoordeel over een opleiding is in elk geval ‘onvoldoende’ indien i) standaard 1 onvoldoende is, ii) ten minste zes standaarden ‘voldoende’ zijn en herstel van de tekortkomingen bij de ‘onvoldoende’ standaarden binnen twee jaar niet realistisch en haalbaar is of iii) minder dan zes standaarden ‘voldoende’ zijn. - Het eindoordeel over een opleiding is in elk geval ‘voldoende’ indien ten minste zes standaarden ‘voldoende’ zijn; waaronder in elk geval standaard 1 en herstel van de tekortkomingen bij de ‘onvoldoende’ standaarden realistisch en haalbaar is binnen twee jaar. - Het eindoordeel over een opleiding kan alleen ‘goed’ zijn indien ten minste alle standaarden minimaal ‘voldoende’ zijn en 5 standaarden als ‘goed’ worden beoordeeld; waaronder in elk geval standaard 11. - Het eindoordeel over een opleiding kan alleen ‘excellent’ zijn indien ten minste alle standaarden minimaal ‘voldoende’ worden bevonden en 5 standaarden als ‘excellent’ worden beoordeeld; waaronder in elk geval standaard 11. ©Hobéon Certificering | Beoordelingsrapport hbo-bacheloropleiding Human Resource Management, De Haagse Hogeschool | v3.0AVG | 34 BIJLAGE III Lijst geraadpleegde documenten - Zelfevaluatierrapport opleiding HRM. - Domeinspecifiek referentiekader en de leerresultaten van de opleiding. - Schematisch programmaoverzicht. - Inhoudsbeschrijving (op hoofdlijnen) van de programmaonderdelen, met vermelding van - leerresultaten, leerdoelen, werkvormen, wijze van toetsen, literatuur (verplicht/aanbevolen), betrokken docenten en studiepunten. - Onderwijs- en examenregeling – OER. - Overzicht van het ingezette personeel: - naam, functie, omvang aanstelling, graad en deskundigheid. - Overzichtslijst van alle eindwerken van de laatste twee jaar (of van portfolio’s/werkstukken waaruit het door de student bereikte eindniveau kan worden afgeleid). - Jaarverslag examencommissie en verslagen opleidingscommissie. - Toetsopgaven + beoordelingscriteria en normering (antwoordmodellen) en een representatieve selectie van gemaakte toetsen (presentaties, stageverslagen, assessments, portfolio’s e.d.) en beoordelingen. - Representatieve selectie van handboeken en overig studiemateriaal.

SOCIALA MEDIER OCH POLITISKT ENGAGEMANG NILS GUSTAFSSON OCH LARS HÖGLUND I mediedebatten har de så kallade sociala medierna fått stort utrymme på senare tid. I rapporteringen om revolutionerna i Nordafrika under våren 2011 har man diskuterat vilken roll sociala medier har haft för att mobilisera befolkningen. Även i Sverige har effekten av sociala medier på samhällsengagemanget debatterats, inte minst i samband med riksdagsvalet 2010. Leder det faktum att så många svenskar använder tjänster som Facebook till att de också uttrycker sina politiska åsikter på ett annat sätt? Kan man tala om ett förändrat engagemang? I det här kapitlet ska vi titta lite närmare på vem som använder sociala medier i Sverige idag och hur sociala medier används i människors samhällsengagemang. Ett särskilt fokus ska ägnas skillnader mellan olika generationer (för olika definitioner, se Zukin et al 2006). Även om det är för tidigt att dra några säkra slutsatser om sambandet mellan sociala medier och samhällsengagemang står det klart att de har blivit ett naturligt inslag i särskilt yngres politiska beteende. Användningen av sociala medier ökar fortfarande Med sociala medier avses kommunikationstjänster som på något sätt innehåller en social faktor: man delar med sig av information till kontakter i ett socialt nätverk via en webbaserad tjänst. Medan till exempel en papperstidning eller en radiokanal kommunicerar information som har producerats av få till många konsumenter, präglas sociala medier av möjlighet för ”många-till-många”-kommunikation och att skillnaden mellan producenter och konsumenter av medieinnehåll blir mer otydlig (boyd & Ellison 2007; Beer & Burrows 2007). Medan man å ena sidan kan göra en åtskillnad mellan traditionella massmedier och sociala medier på detta sätt står det å andra sidan också klart att det finns flera likheter mellan dessa kommunikationsformer. Detta komplicerar den bild av Sverige som ett massmediesamhälle som har funnits under lång tid. Med de sociala mediernas hjälp kan enskilda individer med relativt enkla medel nå en under vissa omständigheter mycket stor publik. Samtidigt använder även dagstidningar, tv-kanaler och radiokanaler sociala medier som en integrerad del av sin verksamhet. Även myndigheter och företag använder sociala medier för sin kommunikation. Och i de sociala medierna består en stor del av innehållet av material som producerats av traditionella mediehus, som länkar till tidningsartiklar, tv-klipp, och så vidare. Man kan, med den amerikanske medieforskaren Henry Jenkins ord, tala om en form av mediekonvergens (Jenkins 2006). Gustafsson, N & Höglund, L (2011) Sociala medier och politiskt engagemang i Sören Holmberg, Lennart Weibull & Henrik Oscarsson (red) Lycksalighetens ö. Göteborg: SOM-institutet, Göteborgs universitet. Ett exempel på ett socialt medium som är ytterst populärt i Sverige, såväl som i stora delar av världen, är den sociala nätverkssajten Facebook. På Facebook kan användare lägga upp information om sig själva och posta foton, texter, länkar och filmklipp. Det finns en rad möjligheter att kommunicera med andra användare, exempelvis genom chatt och meddelanden. Det finns rika möjligheter att samla grupper av användare med gemensamma intressen. Till de sociala medierna brukar också räknas sajter som mikrobloggingssajten Twitter och videodelningssajten YouTube. De senaste åren har det blivit allt mer vanligt att sociala medier används inte bara genom vanliga datorer, utan också genom mobiltelefoner och läsplattor. Sociala medier har under de senaste åren fått ett enormt genomslag såväl i Sverige som runt om i världen. 2007, då frågan för första gången ställdes, uppgav endast 11 procent av de svarande i SOM-undersökningen att man använde sociala medier minst en gång i veckan. 2009 hade den siffran stigit till 33 procent. I SOM 2010 steg andelen veckoanvändare ytterligare något, till nära 40 procent. De som använder sociala medier någon gång per år eller oftare uppgick till 60 procent. Sverige ligger i internationella jämförelser på en tätplats när det gäller tillgång till och användning av Internet. 85 procent av dem över 16 år har tillgång till Internet i hemmet (Findahl 2010) och Sverige ligger också högt när det gäller användning av sociala medier (Elliott 2010). Genomslaget, i synnerhet bland unga, är påtagligt. **Figur 1** Andel som använder Internet och sociala medier en eller flera gånger i veckan 2010 efter födelsedecennium (procent) Källa: Den nationella SOM-undersökningen 2010. Figur 1 visar hur användning av såväl Internet som sociala medier är starkt åldersberoende. Nära 90 procent av 80-talisterna, dvs personer under ca 30 år, använder sociala medier varje vecka, vilket kan jämföras med 40-talisternas ännu ganska måttliga 20 procent. Internetanvändningen uppvisar ett annat mönster och omfattar majoriteten i flertalet åldersgrupper utom de allra äldsta, födda på 1920- och 30-talet. Även om andelen medelålders användare ökade markant mellan 2009 och 2010 års SOM-undersökningar är sociala medier således fortfarande mycket mer vanligt i de yngre åldersklasserna. Medan andelen veckoanvändare är drygt 84 procent i den så kallade internetgenerationen (födda 1977-1994), är det endast 7 procent av dem som är födda före 1945 som är veckoanvändare (Tabell 1). **Tabell 1** Användare av sociala medier 2009-2010 (procent) | Totalt | Kön | Generation | Utbildning | |--------|-----------|------------|------------| | | Kvinnor | Män | 1977-1994 | 1965-1976 | 1945-1964 | 1918-1944 | L | ML | MH | H | | Veckoanvändare 2010 | 39 | 43 | 35 | 84 | 53 | 25 | 7 | 15 | 46 | 50 | 46 | | Veckoanvändare 2009 | 33 | 35 | 30 | 82 | 42 | 20 | 5 | 10 | 40 | 42 | 37 | **Kommentar:** Procent av dem som svarat minst "någon gång i veckan" på frågan "Hur ofta har du gjort följande på internet: Använt sociala medier (ex.

Facebook, MySpace, Twitter): Läsa/följa vad andra skriver respektive Skriva/kommentera andras material." **Källa:** Den nationella SOM-undersökningen 2010. Vi vet från andra studier att medievanor som grundläggs i unga år endast långsamt förändras genom livet (se exempelvis Ulrika Hedmans och Ingela Wadbrings artikel om dagstidningsläsning i denna volym). Därför ter det sig rimligt att anta att sociala medier även framöver kommer att vara absolut vanligast hos yngre svenskar, medan äldre förmodligen inte kommer att flockas till sajter som Facebook och Twitter inom de närmaste åren. Ökningen bland medelålders användare är dock viktig att uppmärksammas och bekräftas av andra undersökningar (Findahl 2010). Vi kan också notera att könsskillnader spelar en roll. Medan 43 procent av kvinnorna använder sociala medier är siffran för männen endast 35 procent. När det gäller att ofta uppdatera sin profil är skillnaden mellan unga män och kvinnor ännu större. Findahl (2010) finner att 37 procent bland unga män (16-25 år) och hela 54 procent bland unga kvinnor gör detta dagligen eller flera gånger i veckan. Kan detta ha att göra med att kvinnor värdesätter relationer mer än män och därför i högre utsträckning vänder sig till sociala medier? Det framgår också att medel- och högutbildade är mer benägna att använda sociala medier än lågutbildade, medan skillnaden är mindre tydlig mellan högre utbildningskategorier. Det bör nämnas att bland de lågutbildade finns många äldre. I gruppen unga lågutbildade (födda 1977-1994) använder samtliga svarande sociala medier medan det i gruppen äldre högutbildade (födda 1918-1945) endast är 27 procent som gör detta. Det är däremot naturligtvis omöjligt att förutspå vilka specifika tjänster som kommer att användas framöver och hur de kommer att se ut. Men vi kan nog vara relativt säkra på att sociala medier i någon form är här för att stanna. I 2009 års undersökning (se Bergström 2010) framkom att även användningsmönstret skiljer sig påtagligt mellan äldre och yngre. Yngre användare var på en rad olika punkter mer aktiva än äldre. Detta mönster bekräftas av årets undersökning, både vad gäller att läsa, titta och på andra sätt följa innehållet i de sociala medierna och vad gäller att själv bidra med texter, bilder och annat innehåll. Äldersskillnaderna är dessutom större vad gäller i vilken grad man själv som användare bidrar med innehåll (Tabell 2). Bland användare av sociala medier födda 1946-1964 är det sålunda 61 procent som åtminstone varje vecka läser innehåll medan över 90 procent av internetgenerationens användare gör detta. Och medan färre än var tredje användare född i rekordårsgenerationen lägger ut material varje vecka är det fyra femtedelar av dem som är födda efter 1977 som gör det. Med andra ord: även om andelen medelålders som använder sociala medier har ökat det sista året betyder inte det att de använder sociala medier lika ofta som yngre. Överlag finns det flera intressanta skillnader i användningen av sociala medier mellan generationer. Låt oss titta lite närmare på skillnader i användning mellan internetgenerationen och den så kallade generation X (födda 1965-1976). Om vi först betraktar hela befolkningen ser vi att det inte finns några stora skillnader mellan utbildningsnivå för huruvida man använder sociala medier, utom vad gäller den relativt lilla andelen lågutbildade, som inte använder sociala medier så ofta och dessutom tenderar att vara äldre än befolkningen i genomsnitt. Vi vet sedan tidigare att hur aktivt man använder sociala medier – hur ofta man skriver och lägger upp material – skiljer sig stort mellan åldersgrupper. Men hur ser det ut om vi jämför de båda yngsta generationerna med avseende på utbildning? Då framträder en mer komplicerad bild: medan det i stort inte finns några större skillnader i benägenheten att lägga upp material mellan grupper med olika lång utbildning i internetgenerationen framgår det klart att det i generation x finns en tydlig koppling mellan utbildning och hur aktiv man är. Personer i generation x, alltså mellan 35 år och närmare 50 med hög utbildning läser och skriver mer frekvent än personer i motsvarande ålder med låg utbildning (Figur 2). Detta samband försvinner dock om vi går upp i åldrarna. Sambanden är således komplicerade när det gäller kön, ålder och utbildning och är inte linjära. **Figur 2** Andel av dem som använder sociala medier som skriver/postar varje vecka efter utbildning 2010 (procent) ![Graph showing usage frequency by education level] **Kommentar:** Utbildningsnivåerna är låg, medellåg, medelhög samt hög. Internetgenerationen = födda 1977-1994; generation X = födda 1965-1976. **Källa:** Den nationella SOM-undersökningen 2010. En del av skillnaden i användarmönster mellan generationerna har säkerligen att göra med det faktum att en stor del av internetgenerationen helt enkelt inte har hunnit utbilda sig färdigt. Därför är det svårt att säga i vilken mån dessa skillnader mellan generationerna kommer att bestå när även de yngsta i internetgenerationen avslutar sin utbildning och kommer ut på arbetsmarknaden. Mönstret tycks dock hålla även om man tittar specifikt på användare i 30-årsåldern och jämför med äldre. En anledning till att utbildning tycks vara kopplat till frekvens i användning kan vara så enkelt som att individer med högre utbildning oftare har arbets- och livssituationer som tillåter dem att exempelvis logga in på Facebook under arbetstid och kanske till och med använda sociala medier som en del av arbetet. De frågor om användning som ställts har inte tagit hänsyn till om användningen har skett i yrkesutövningen eller i privatlivet. Användningsmönstret skiljer sig också åt mellan kvinnor och män. På samma sätt som kvinnor är något mer benägna än män att använda sociala medier är också de kvinnliga användarna något mer aktiva än männen. Detta mönster är känt från tidigare studier i andra länder, även om skillnaderna varierar över tid och med hänsyn till olika typer av användande (Steinfeld m fl 2008; Hargittai 2008). Eftersom tidigare undersökningar (se t ex Bergström 2010) inte såg stora skillnader i användande mellan män och kvinnor är detta något som förtjänar uppmärksamhet. Det är viktigt att påpeka att de frågor som ställts tidigare har haft en annan ordalydelse vilket kan ha påverkat hur man har svarat. För att närmare se på samspelet mellan kön, ålder och utbildning och användning av sociala medier har vi kombinerat dessa (Tabell 3). Här framgår hur effekten av utbildning minskar, men också att skillnaden mellan män och kvinnor minskar bland högutbildade när vi går upp i ålder. **Tabell 3** Andel som läser respektive skriver/lägger ut i sociala medier efter kön, ålder och utbildning 2010 (procent) | Ålder | 16-29 | | | 30-49 | | | 50-75 | | | |-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------| | Utbildning | Låg | Hög | Låg | Hög | Låg | Hög | Låg | Hög | | Kön | M | K | M | K | M | K | M | K | M | K | | Läser vecka | 80 | 94 | 78 | 92 | 45 | 49 | 58 | 62 | 19 | 28 | 29 | 25 | | Lägger ut vecka | 71 | 87 | 68 | 83 | 27 | 44 | 43 | 52 | 9 | 20 | 18 | 19 | | Antal svar | 80 | 85 | 41 | 47 | 96 | 89 | 111 | 169 | 172 | 143 | 120 | 151 | **Kommentar:** Åldersgruppen 76-85 har utelämnats här på grund av få aktiva i sociala medier. Låg utbildning = låg + medellåg och hög utbildning = medelhög + hög utbildning. Antal svar endast angivet för läsare. N för "läser": 1356; N för "lägger ut": 1347. Effekter kan beräknas som genomsnittliga procentskillnader, notera dock att skillnaderna varierar i de olika åldersgrupperna och enbart en sådan beräkning därför inte rekommenderas. För tydlighet har de beräknats här först för hela tabellen: Läser varje vecka: Kön: 0,07; Utbildning: 0,05 och Ålder: -0,29. Lägger ut v.vecka: Kön: 0,12; Utbildning: 0,05 och Ålder: -0,30. Observera att interaktionseffekterna gör att skillnaderna är betydande mellan olika åldersgrupper. För resp åldergrupp är effekten av kön och utbildning följande för att lägga ut material varje vecka: 16-29 år: Kön=0,15; Utbildning=0,04. För 30-49 år: Kön=0,13; Utbildning 0,14. För 50-75 år: Kön=0,06; Utbildning 0,02. Effekten av kön sjunker således med ålder och effekten av utbildning är endast tydlig i åldersgruppen 30-49 år dvs ungefär motsvarande ålder som kallats generation x. Effekten av kön och utbildning kan således specificeras. Som framgår av tabell 3 kan vi specificera att det råder stora skillnader mellan åldersgrupperna så att effekten av ålder dominerar. Effekten av kön är mindre och kan dessutom specificeras till att främst gälla i åldrarna under 50 år. Effekten av utbildning kan specificeras till att främst gälla i mellangruppen 30-49 år, medan den är obetydlig både bland unga och äldre. **Sociala medier som politisk kanal** Låt oss så närma oss den inledande frågan om användning av sociala medier för politisk aktivitet och som kanal för samhällsengagemang jämfört med mer traditionella former för politisk aktivitet. 2009 ställdes en fråga om olika användningsområden för sociala medier. Då uppgav en femtedel av dem som använder sociala medier att de hade ”anslutit till eller startat kampanjer eller upprop”, medan 27 procent av de svarande angav att de hade skrivit om samhällsfrågor (Bergström 2010). **Tabell 4** Gjort följande via sociala medier eller engagerat sig på annat vis 2010 (procent av samtliga svarande på respektive delfråga) | | Nej | Via sociala medier | På annat vis | Antal svar | |-----------------------------------------|-----|--------------------|--------------|------------| | Skrivit under namninsamlingar/ anslutit mig till upprop | 71 | 15 | 13 | 1627 | | Skrivit inlägg/debattartikel | 90 | 7 | 4 | 1583 | | Kontaktat politiker | 90 | 2 | 8 | 1594 | | Deltagit i evenemang/arr av politiskt parti etc | 89 | 3 | 7 | 1601 | | Anslutit mig till politiskt parti/org | 93 | 3 | 4 | 1603 | | Engagerat mig i pol. org/nätverk | 93 | 2 | 5 | 1608 | | Uppmanat vän/bekant att engagera sig/ gå med i politisk organisation/nätverk | 90 | 3 | 7 | 1605 | *Källa:* Den nationella SOMundersökningen 2010 I SOMundersökningen 2010 ställdes i stället frågan med utgångspunkt från olika handlingar för att åstadkomma förbättringar eller förhindra försämringar i samhället och om man hade gjort detta genom sociala medier eller på annat vis. På detta sätt kan vi jämföra olika former av deltagande och också se på vilket sätt individer som använder sociala medier för sitt samhällsengagemang och individer som använder andra sätt skiljer sig åt. Istället för att kontrastera olika sätt att använda sociala medier mot varandra, kontrasteras här olika sätt att utöva politiskt inflytande. De olika handlingarna valdes dels för att de sedan länge är vanliga sätt att mäta politiskt deltagande, dels att de är möjliga att utöva både genom sociala medier och på andra sätt. Därigenom blir det enklare att se skillnaderna mellan de båda formerna av engagemang. Som framgår av tabell 4 är vissa former av deltagande är mer vanliga än andra. Detta är välkänt genom tidigare studier (se till exempel Amnå 2008). Särskilt att skriva under namninsamlingar har vuxit fram som ett vanligt sätt att uttrycka sin mening i Sverige. Det kräver inte heller en särskilt stor insats i tid eller resurser. Nära en tredjedel har under de senaste 12 månaderna skrivit på en namninsamling eller annat upprop. Betydligt mer ovanligt är att engagera sig på mer intensiva sätt, som att exempelvis arbeta eller på annat sätt engagera sig aktivt i en politisk organisation. Mindre än var tionde svarande uppgav att de på detta sätt hade engagerat sig under det gångna året. Att engagera sig politiskt – åtminstone i dessa former – kan alltså knappast sägas vara ett allmänt folkmöje. Om vi betraktar skillnaderna mellan engagemanget i olika kanaler ser vi att vissa handlingar tycks lämpa sig bättre för sociala medier än andra. Det har således blivit vanligare att skriva på namninsamlingar i sociala medier än att göra det på papper. 15 procent av de svarande uppgav att de hade skrivit på en namninsamling genom sociala medier, medan 13 procent uppgav att de hade gjort detta på annat vis. För den regelbundne användaren av en tjänst som Facebook kanske detta inte kommer som en överraskning, eftersom man här ständigt utsätts för uppmaningar att gå med i grupper och stödja olika kampanjer. Även att skriva debattinlägg i olika former är en uttrycksform där de sociala medierna tycks ha slagit ut insändarsidorna. 7 procent har skrivit gjort ett debattinlägg i sociala medier, medan endast 4 procent har använt den traditionella vägen. Däremot är det fortfarande vanligare att kontakta politiker, delta i möten och andra evenemang arrangerade av politiska organisationer, gå med i politiska organisationer, arbeta i politiska organisationer och rekrytera andra till politiska organisationer på andra sätt. Förhoppningarna om att tillgängligheten som de sociala medierna erbjuder skulle öka kontakterna mellan politiker och medborgare tycks alltså inte ännu ha infriats. Av tabellen framgår också att det endast är en liten andel av de svarande som uppgär att de har engagerat sig. Om vi endast utgår från dessa siffror är det således svårt att hävda att det ökande användandet av sociala medier i Sverige i sig har lett till ett kraftigt ökat politiskt engagemang i befolkningen som helhet. Det ska dock kommas ihåg att de handlingar som listats i frågan naturligtvis bara utgör en liten del av de möjliga sätt att engagera sig som finns. Inom deltagandeforskningen finns det sedan länge påvisade samband mellan benägenheten att uttrycka sig politiskt eller utöva inflytande och olika sociala faktorer, som ålder, utbildning och kön. Generellt kan man säga att högutbildade deltar mer än lågutbildade, och medelålders deltar mer än yngre och äldre, medan betydelsen av kön skiftar med typ av handling (se t ex Amnå 2008 och Bäck m fl 2006). ### Tabell 5: Gjort något av följande, via sociala medier på internet eller på annat vis, i avsikt att åstadkomma förbättringar eller förhindra försämringar i samhället 2010 (procent) | | Totalt | Kvinnor | Män | Generation | Utbildning | Användar sociala medier | |-----------------------------------------|--------|---------|-----|------------|------------|--------------------------| | | | | | 1977-1994 | 1965-1976 | 1945-1964 | 1918-1944 | Låg Medelåg Medelhög Hög Ja Nej | | **Skrivit under namninsamling** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 15 | 18 | 13 | 33 | 22 | 11 | 3 | 2 | 16 22 21 28 3 | | Annat vis | 13 | 15 | 12 | 11 | 13 | 17 | 8 | 18 | 14 17 14 13 | | **Skrivit debattartikel** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 7 | 7 | 7 | 12 | 10 | 5 | 2 | 1 | 6 10 10 12 2 | | Annat vis | 4 | 2 | 5 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 2 | 1 | 4 4 4 4 3 | | **Kontaktat politiker** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 2 3 2 3 1 | | Annat vis | 8 | 6 | 11 | 4 | 7 | 11 | 9 | 6 | 11 9 9 8 | | **Deltagit i evenemang arr av pol org** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 3 | 4 | 3 | 8 | 3 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 3 6 4 6 1 | | Annat vis | 7 | 6 | 9 | 7 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 4 | 6 9 10 6 | | **Gått med i pol org** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 3 | 3 | 3 | 7 | 4 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 4 5 3 6 1 | | Annat vis | 4 | 3 | 5 | 6 | 2 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 3 3 2 4 2 | | **Engagerat sig aktivt i politisk organisation** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 2 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 2 2 1 1 | | Annat vis | 5 | 4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 7 | 4 | 3 | 4 6 7 5 5 | | **Uppmunrat bekant att gå med i pol org** | | | | | | | | | | Sociala medier | 3 | 4 | 2 | 8 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 4 5 1 | | Annat vis | 7 | 6 | 8 | 11 | 5 | 6 | 5 | 6 | 9 8 8 5 | | **Antal svar** | 1653 | 834 | 779 | 344 | 298 | 558 | 413 | 357 | 296 389 788 856 | --- 519 Dessa skillnader uppträder också mer eller mindre tydligt i vårt material, som vi kan se av tabell 5. Lågutbildade skiljer sig särskilt mycket från människor med högre utbildning med avseende på benägenhet att delta. Medan endast 2 procent av de lågutbildade har skrivit på en namninsamling i sociala medier, är det över 20 procent av de högutbildade som har gjort detta. För vissa aktiviteter, som att kontakta politiker utanför sociala medier (dvs genom att träffa politikern, skicka brev, ringa etc), spelar utbildning en särskilt stor roll. Ju högre utbildning man har, desto vanligare är det att man kontaktar en politiker. Bland de högutbildade har 13 procent kontaktat en politiker minst en gång under det senaste året, medan det endast är 6 procent av de lågutbildade som har använt denna väg till inflytande. Det är betydligt färre som använder sig av sociala medier för att kontakta politiker, men här avtecknar sig skillnaderna i utbildning inte lika tydligt. Även med avseende på kön kan vi se stora skillnader mellan typer av handlingar. Kvinnor tycks således vara något mer benägna än män att skriva på namninsamlingar – både i sociala medier (18 procent av kvinnorna, 13 procent av männen) och på andra sätt (15 procent av kvinnorna, 12 procent av männen) – medan män tycks vara något mer benägna att kontakta politiker. 11 procent av männen har kontaktat en politiker på annat vis än genom sociala medier, medan endast 6 procent av kvinnorna har gjort detta. För kontakter via sociala medier finns inga könsskillnader, men andelen som har gjort detta är mycket liten. Det skulle kunna te sig som en något banal slutsats att människor som använder sociala medier är mer benägna till att också använda sociala medier för sitt samhällsengagemang – om man inte är användare har man ju inte den möjligheten! Det finns dock på grundval av resultaten möjlighet att dra slutsatser om hur de som använder sig av sociala medier för att utöva inflytande skiljer sig åt från befolkningen i stort och från dem som deltar på traditionella vis. Det ska poängteras att det i enkäten fanns möjlighet att svara att man både hade skrivit under t ex en namninsamling i sociala medier och på annat vis. Det visade sig dock att ytterst få hade utnyttjat den möjligheten. Detta ska förmodligen inte tolkas som att individer som engagerar sig i sociala medier och på traditionella vis är två helt olika grupper av människor, utan snarare uppfattades svarsalternativen som ömsesidigt uteslutande och man kan därför anta att de flesta har svarat vilken form de oftast har använt sig av de senaste 12 månaderna eller vilken form de använt senast. Detta är dock inte en otvetydig slutsats, och det kan därför finnas anledning till att återkomma till frågan om i vilken utsträckning engagerade individer använder flera olika kanaler. **Användare av sociala medier är mer politiskt aktiva** Om vi kontrasterar användare av sociala medier mot icke-användare finner vi att engagemanget genom sociala medier, föga förvånande, är högre. Vad som däremot är intressant är att engagemanget genom andra kanaler också är något högre för användare. Användning av sociala medier i sig tycks alltså inte dra ner engagemanget. Skillnaderna kan också uttryckas på följande vis: om vi räknar alla dem som har deltagit på annat vis än genom sociala medier på minst ett sätt, finner vi att 30 procent av användarna har gjort detta, medan endast 23 procent av icke-användarna har engagerat sig. Om vi i stället slår ihop de olika kategorierna och räknar samtliga som deltagit i någon form, det vill säga utfört minst en av de möjliga handlingarna antingen genom sociala medier eller på annat vis, kan vi se att hela 51 procent av användarna har deltagit, medan endast 26 procent av icke-användarna har gjort detta. **Figur 3** Andel som har deltagit på minst ett sätt 2010 (procent) ![Diagram](image) **Kommentar:** Andel som har svarat ja på någon av delfrågorna. **Källa:** Den nationella SOM-undersökningen 2010. Detta innebär att den rimliga slutsatsen måste vara att användare av sociala medier framstår som mer politiskt aktiva än icke-användare när vi summerar de aktiviteter som nämns i frågan och de ges samma vikt. Här måste dock några preciseringar göras. För det första vet vi att sociala medier-användare tenderar att vara yngre än befolkningen som helhet. Vi vet dessutom att särskilt när vi kommer upp i åldrarna tenderar användare av sociala medier generellt att vara mer välutbildade än icke-användare. Eftersom det finns ett samband mellan utbildning och politiskt delta-gande kan vi utgå att det är utbildningsnivån som slår igenom här. Därtill finns naturligtvis den möjligheten att äldre och medelålders som är politiskt intresserade i högre utsträckning vill använda sociala medier än andra i samma åldersgrupp. Den största skillnaden gäller dock återigen ålder. Den unga så kallade internetgenerationen visar sig vara synnerligen aktiv i de sociala medierna jämfört med äldre generationer också när det gäller politisk aktivitet. Exempelvis har 33 procent av dem som är födda efter 1977 skrivit under en namninsamling i sociala medier, men endast 11 procent av dem som är födda 1945-1964. Detta är inte märkligt eller förvånande: vi har ju ovan sett att unga människor i mycket högre utsträckning än äldre använder sociala medier. Men internetgenerationen är också mer politiskt aktiv i sociala medier än den genomsnittlige användaren av sociala medier. För varje typ av politisk handling utförd i sociala medier slår den yngsta generationen såväl äldre medborgare som sociala medier-användare i samtliga ålderskategorier – utom vad gäller att kontakta politiker genom sociala medier, där de inte höjer sig över snittet av användare eller jämfört med generation x. Om vi däremot betraktar deltagande på andra sätt än genom sociala medier, finner vi att internetgenerationen är mindre aktiv än äldre generationer – utom vad gäller två frågor som har med medlemskap i politiska organisationer och nätverk att göra: en högre andel unga har gått med i politiska organisationer och nätverk än äldre både genom sociala medier och på andra sätt, och fler unga har försökt rekrytera en bekant till en politisk organisation eller nätverk. Detta är kanske inte så märkligt eftersom äldre politiskt intresserade människor kanske redan har gått med i de politiska organisationer som står dem nära, men det nyanserar möjligen de farhågor som rests för att unga skulle vara mindre benägna att organisera sig politiskt än äldre. Ett grovt mått på hur ålder, kön, utbildning och sociala medier samspelar när det gäller politiskt engagemang kan vi få om vi som ovan analyserar alla dem som har deltagit i någon form – vare sig det är via sociala medier eller på annat sätt (se tabell 6). **Tabell 6** Logistisk regressionsanalys av deltagande i minst en handling respektive deltagande i minst en handling på annat vis 2010 | | Deltagande totalt | Deltagande på annat vis | |------------------------|-------------------|-------------------------| | Konstant | -1,349 **** | -2,010 **** | | Ålder | -0,005 | 0,006 | | Kvinna | -0,037 | -0,157 | | Utbildning ML | 0,668 **** | 0,598 *** | | Utbildning MH | 1,148 **** | 1,026 **** | | Utbildning H | 1,079 **** | 0,943 **** | | Anv sociala medier | 0,762 **** | 0,248 * | | Nagelkerkes R² | 0,130 | 0,042 | | Antal svar | 1653 | 1653 | **Kommentar:** Analysmetoden är binominal logistisk regressionsanalys. Värden är ostandardiserade regressionskoefficienter. Referenskategori för utbildning är lågutbildade. Signifikansnivåer: ****=0,001, ***=0,01, **=0,05, *=0,1. **Källa:** Den nationella SOMundersökningen 2010. Vi bortser här från att vår analytiska modell innehåller ett visst mått av så kallad endogeneitet: att förklara deltagande som ett resultat av att använda sociala medier då vissa former av deltagande förutsätter att man använder sociala medier är vanskligt. Om vi gör en så kallad logistisk regressionsanalys med deltagande som beroende variabel och ålder, kön, utbildning och användning av sociala medier som oberoende variabler, finner vi att såväl utbildning som användning av sociala medier är statistiskt signifikanta och i positiv riktning (se tabell 6). Med de förbehåll som nämnts kan vi alltså säga att oddset för att en svensk individ ska utföra minst en politisk handling ökar om han eller hon är välutbildad och använder sociala medier. Ålder och kön har inga statistiskt signifikanta effekter på dessa politiska handlingar när man kontrollerar för utbildning och användning av sociala medier. Om vi däremot begränsar oss till att mäta effekten av att använda sociala medier på deltagandet i andra former, finner vi att sociala medier-användning tappar i förklaringskraft. Effekten är fortfarande i positiv riktning, men måttet på statistisk signifikans är svagare. Utbildning behåller däremot sin starka förklaringskraft på politiskt engagemang. Vi kan med utgångspunkt från dessa avslutande statistiska analyser inte göra några säkra uttalanden om effekterna av att använda sociala medier på benägenheten att engagera sig politiskt. Vi kan däremot vara relativt förvissade om att utbildning spelar en fortsatt viktig roll för benägenheten att engagera sig politiskt. **De sociala medierna och framtidens politik** Det verkar alltså som att den yngsta vuxna generationen i Sverige inte är avsevärt mindre politiskt aktiv än sina föräldrar och farföräldrar. Däremot är det uppenbart att de yngre tenderar att kanalisera sitt politiska engagemang genom sociala medier i betydligt högre grad än äldre, och detta gäller alltså även äldre användare av sociala medier. En fråga som ofta diskuteras, men som inte tagits upp hittills i den här texten är hur deltagande i sociala medier skiljer sig åt jämfört med deltagande på mer traditionella sätt. Är det så, som ofta påstås, att deltagande i sociala medier är ett uttryck för lättja – att yngre människor helt enkelt inte orkar engagera sig mer än att trycka på en knapp? Är deltagande genom sociala medier mindre värft, eller mindre betydelsefullt än på andra sätt? I litteraturen har detta fenomen kallats ”klicktivism” (se t ex Karpf 2010). Frågan om de sociala mediernas värde som instrument för deltagande är inte möjlig att pröva här. Det ter sig däremot klart att unga människor väljer att engagera sig politiskt genom de sociala medierna, medan äldre inte gör det. Att deltagande genom sociala medier ofta tillmäts ett mindre värde än deltagande på traditionella sätt kan helt enkelt ha att göra med denna ålders- eller generationsklyfta. De äldre sätter normen, och deltagande i sociala medier betraktas fortfarande som normavvikande. Om den unga generationen framhärdar i sin förkärlek för dessa kanaler upp genom åldrarna kan detta komma att ändras. Kommer detta att leda till en klyfta vad gäller politiskt inflytande? Kommer våra politiskt förtroendevalda i framtiden att lyssna mer till de ungas lockrop från de sociala medierna än till de äldres insändare? Det är en fråga för fortsatt forskning och en politisk verklighet som svenska opinionsbildare framgent har att förhålla sig till. Referenser Amnå, E. (2008). *Jourhavande medborgare.

Par David Labreure, Président de la Fédération. 2022 a été pour nous une année pleine de paradoxes, entre un certain retour à la normale du point de vue de nos pratiques culturelles, après 2 ans de COVID qui nous ont grandement pénalisés, mais aussi une terrible année du point de vue international avec le conflit russo-ukrainien qui s’enlisé et tue inutilement chaque jour un peu plus. Si la situation internationale ne nous incite guère à l’optimisme, le printemps 2023, pour la Fédération, sera néanmoins le temps de se retrouver pour des journées d’étude, en « présence », chez nos amis Belges qui plus est ! Nous avons hâte de découvrir ou redécouvrir les liens forts unissant nos auteurs et autrices à la Belgique, et de constater le fort dynamisme autour du patrimoine littéraire outre-quiévrain. Je tiens à remercier ici François-Xavier Lavenne pour son implication constante dans la concrétisation de ces journées qui, je l’espère, vous feront renouer de la plus belle des manières les un(e)s avec les autres, autour de notre passion commune et dans la convivialité retrouvée. La thématique choisie pour ces journées d’étude, Écrire en exil, est, par ailleurs, complètement d’actualité. Notre grand témoin, l’écrivain bosnien Velibor Colić, connaît particulièrement les horreurs engendrées par la guerre, lui qui a fui l’ex-Yougoslavie pour la France qui l’a accueillie et lui a permis de continuer à écrire et raconter – avec talent et humour – son histoire. La Fédération n’a pas manqué d’activité durant les six derniers mois : une journée consacrée au Pass Culture et à notre partenariat tout frais avec la Bnf, et un colloque en ligne sur les Nouvelles formes de patrimonialisation du littéraire, qui ont, je crois, permis aux adhérents de constater une nouvelle fois l’enthousiasme et l’énergie de leur Fédération. Sans oublier de nombreux ateliers de professionnalisation en ligne. Nos réseaux régionaux ont également poursuivi leurs nombreuses et riches activités : festival, journées d’étude, ateliers… La variété et la richesse de leurs actions est à saluer grandement. À l’international, notre implication dans le projet de maison-musée Miguel Ángel Asturias au Guatemala, en collaboration avec la fondation dédiée à ce grand écrivain, poète, diplomate et prix Nobel de littérature en 1967, dont les liens avec la France sont si forts, témoigne de la reconnaissance de notre expertise au-delà de notre territoire national. Se dessine également la perspective des 17es Rencontres de Bourges, en novembre, qui seront consacrées au tourisme littéraire et qui nous permettront d’actualiser nos connaissances sur les dispositifs les plus récents en la matière. Le rapport aux publics, les liens avec les territoires, les outils de communication sont autant de thèmes cruciaux dans nos activités, qu’il faut sans cesse réévaluer et interroger. 2023 sera donc une nouvelle fois une année très riche. Notre Fédération se porte bien, elle continuera à faire connaître, relayer, mettre en contact les différents acteurs du patrimoine littéraire entre eux et autour d’eux. Ce 48e numéro de notre bulletin sera pour vous, je l’espère, le témoin le plus fidèle possible de la pluralité de nos activités, ainsi que des nombreux accomplissements et projets de vos lieux et associations. Ce dynamisme ne peut être qu’un motif incitant à l’optimisme en ces temps bien difficiles ! Bonne lecture à toutes et à tous.

Il contribue à la généralisation de l’éducation artistique et culturelle (EAC). Il comporte deux déclinaisons : • La part individuelle permet à tous les jeunes de 15 à 18 ans, sur l’ensemble du territoire national, d’acquérir des biens et services culturels grâce à un crédit individuel. En téléchargeant l’application Pass Culture, ils peuvent réserver des places et des abonnements, des livres, des CD, des services numériques, des visites, des cours et ateliers, du matériel beaux-arts, etc. Les montants de la part individuelle du Pass Culture par âge sont les suivants : 20 euros à 15 ans, 30 euros à 16 et 17 ans, 300 euros à 18 ans, à dépenser sur deux ans. Les lieux de visite, boutiques, etc. auprès desquels le jeune réserve ou achète une prestation ou un objet culturel sont payés directement par le Pass Culture. • La part dite collective permet aux professeurs de financer des activités EAC pour leurs classes et groupes d’élèves. Cette part s’applique aux élèves de la 4e à la Terminale des établissements publics et privés sous contrat. Les offres collectives couvrent les spectacles, concerts, ateliers, rencontres, conférences, expositions, visites et tous événements pouvant se dérouler dans un lieu culturel, dans un établissement scolaire ou dans tout autre lieu adapté. Chaque établissement de l’enseignement public et privé sous contrat dispose d’un crédit de dépense attribué annuellement sur la base de ses effectifs, de 20 à 30 euros par élève selon le niveau (de la 4e à la Terminale). En moyenne, 800 euros sont ainsi financés par classe et par année scolaire, pour des activités d’éducation artistique et culturelle. Un référent Culture est nommé dans chaque collège et lycée, il est l’interlocuteur privilégié des professeurs pour ce dispositif. Le vademecum de la part collective du Pass Culture présente le cadre d’éligibilité des acteurs culturels qui pourront proposer des activités collectives via la part collective du Pass Culture. Il aborde l’articulation des rôles des DRAC, directions régionales des affaires culturelles, et des DAAC, délégations académiques à l’éducation artistique et à l’action culturelle, dans le processus de création d’une offre collective, en lien avec les équipes pédagogiques des établissements scolaires, les acteurs culturels, les collectivités territoriales ainsi que la société SAS Pass Culture, chargée de la mise en œuvre opérationnelle du projet. Il précise également le cadre réglementaire et les ressources disponibles.

UN THÈME RETENU : Visages d’écrivain, sur proposition de Nicolas Bondenet, ancien directeur du musée Alexandre Dumas de Villers-Cotterêts ; UNE INJONCTION DÉLIVRÉE PAR L'AUTEUR DE LA NOTE D'INTENTION : « dépoussiérer l'image des écrivains patrimoniaux et les représenter aujourd'hui dans l'espace public » ; UNE HABITUDE : se réinventer au gré du temps et au fil des thèmes ; UN CHOIX RAISONNÉ : s'ouvrir à de nouveaux publics et associer « la littérature patrimoniale et la création » ; UNE DÉCISION ÉVIDENTE : associer un(e) artiste à la préparation et à la réalisation du Festival ; UNE EXPOSITION MODIFIÉE : transformer l'exposition traditionnelle en une occupation de l'espace public ; UN ALBUM, CATALOGUE REVISITÉ : pour réunir les créations de l'artiste – carnet de voyage, portraits et textes scientifiques – en une publication de 128 pages ; UN CASTING SÉRIEUX : 10 artistes s'étaient proposés, chaque membre du Réseau a voté pour ses trois favoris et Anne-Claire Giraudet a accepté l'aventure ! Anne Claire Giraudet : « J’ai un parcours un peu atypique dans le sens où j’ai une licence d’archéologie et un master dans le patrimoine. Mais j’ai toujours aimé le dessin. Je voulais faire la fac d’art quand je suis sortie du lycée, j’ai fait d’ailleurs une semaine de fac d’art et puis j’ai un peu trop flippé alors je suis partie et j’ai bifurqué vers histoire de l’art et archéologie. À l’époque je n’arrivais pas à assumer de montrer mes dessins aux gens autour de moi […]. Puis j’ai travaillé dans le milieu culturel, au cirque d’Amiens, et à un moment donné ma mère m’a offert un livre jeunesse et je me suis dit « tiens mais c’est un métier en fait de créer des illustrations jeunesse ! ». J’ai fini par tout lâcher pour préparer un diplôme de bande dessinée en 2 ans et après ça m’a lancée pour devenir illustratrice. J’ai tenté de compléter ma formation par moi-même par ci par là, en prenant des cours en parallèle, dans des centres culturels et avec une illustratrice ». UNE COMMANDE ARTISTIQUE : avec la création d’illustrations sur les écrivains pour mettre en valeur leur visage et leur lieu d’existence, la création des outils de communication, une médiation pendant et après le Festival ; UNE RÉSIDENCE ITINÉRANTE : 30 structures à visiter, 30 écrivains à découvrir, une extension considérable avec circulation de l’artiste dans la région entre juin et septembre 2022, une organisation décentralisée avec un pilotage réalisé grâce à des référents de secteur, et deux à trois jours de résidence dans chaque destination ; UN TEMPS DE TRAVAIL À L’ATELIER : de septembre à décembre 2022 pour terminer les portraits, les paysages, les lieux et l’affiche ; → 1. La GraineTerie, siège social du Réseau HDF, pépinière culturelle qui abrite six associations régionales : Actes Pro, Ombelliscience, l’AR2L, l’Acap, Réseau des maisons d’écrivain HDF et Haute Fidélité. UN ÉCHANGE RÉGULIER RÉSEAU/ARTISTE : Anne-Claire Giraudet a été accompagnée par le Réseau dans sa découverte des écrivains de la région, pour s’assurer que les orientations choisies étaient bien en accord avec les attentes du Réseau ; Anne-Claire, en trois mots, comment décrirais-tu ton expérience du Tour des Hauts-de-France ? Anne-Claire Giraudet : « J’ai toujours bien aimé l’idée de voyager dans l’optique de quelque chose. Pas forcément voyager pour voyager. J’ai aimé explorer la région en ayant un objectif précis, en allant à la quête de quelque chose. L’idée c’était de découvrir des écrivains, des territoires et ça donnait un sens à ce voyage. Et j’ai bien aimé ces découvertes en mode carte au trésor ! En trois mots je crois que je dirais : exploration, belles rencontres, poésie et surprise ; enfin s’il y a moyen d’en choisir quatre ? [rires] » UNE INVITATION : Le Réseau vous donne rendez-vous à Amiens, le 4 mai 2023 pour la journée d’étude et le lancement du Festival. Il vous invite à parcourir la région des Hauts-de-France jusqu’au 4 juin 2023, pour découvrir la programmation culturelle des structures littéraires régionales !

Dans cette optique, ses collections se sont enrichies en 2022 de trois acquisitions, avec le concours de la Ville de Lunel, de la DRAC et de l’Association des Amis du Musée et du Fonds Médard. « Manuel typographique utile aux gens de lettres & à ceux qui exercent les différentes parties de l’Art de l’Imprimerie », de Pierre-Simon Fournier, dit Le Jeune (auteur) - (Paris : Barbou, 1764-1766) - 2 volumes Il s’agit d’une édition originale, la seule connue de l’ouvrage, qui présente un exemple de grand raffinement de l’art de l’impression au XVIIIe siècle. Pierre-Simon Fournier (1764-1766) s’intéresse à l’histoire de son art, décrit les techniques et les outils qui lui sont nécessaires. Il donne des exemples de typographies françaises et le texte est orné de seize planches gravées représentant les outils ainsi que les différentes parties des machines destinées à la création des poinçons. Le second volume, quant à lui, s’intéresse à l’imprimerie dans les pays européens. Il est constitué d’exemples de caractères typographiques français et étrangers, d’ornements textuels, de jeux de chiffres et de caractères spécifiques à la musique. Chaque volume est orné d’un frontispice, le premier d’après Gravelot, le second d’après De Sève, tous deux gravés par Fessard.

Ainsi le musée Médard est naturellement associé au prix international organisé par les Amis du musée et du fonds Médard (5e édition en 2022). Rose Marie Dath a répondu à ce concours, « L’or et la reliure », en proposant une reliure originale où l’or est intégré dans le livre. En effet, ce sont les contreplats qui sont parés d’éclats à la feuille d’or fin. La reliure, quant à elle, est d’un bleu intense constellé d’étoiles et en plein cuir janséniste. Cette reliure de luxe, qui emploie les techniques et les matériaux de la reliure traditionnelle, est d’une qualité remarquable mais sans marque ostentatoire. Les gardes monochromes bleues, comme zone de « pure sensibilité picturale », entrent en écho avec le contenu du livre d’Yves Klein. Laurence Sabbatino, responsable de la gestion des collections « Les amours de Psyché et de Cupidon », de Jean de La Fontaine (auteur), Jean-Claude Bozerian (relieur) (Paris : Imprimerie Didot jeune, 1795) Cet ouvrage, doté d’une reliure Directoire à décor néo-classique en maroquin vert, exécutée par Jean-Claude Bozerian (1762-1840), est orné d’un portrait de La Fontaine, gravé par Audouin d’après Hyacinthe Rigaud, et de huit figures hors texte de Moreau le Jeune. L’exemplaire provient de la bibliothèque de Jean Parlier, dont l’ex-libris « Jean Parlier l’aîné » est visible sur le plat intérieur de la reliure. Jean Parlier (1762-1830), négociant montpelliérain de confession protestante, est un bibliophile et associé de Louis Médard dans le commerce de tissus imprimés (création en 1801 de la société Médard et Parlier à Montpellier). De leur amitié, découle un échange d’ouvrages. Aussi vingt ouvrages issus de la bibliothèque de Parlier se retrouvent dans la bibliothèque de Louis Médard. Réunion des Musées Métropolitains Rouen Normandie (76) D’après les frères Goncourt, c’est au sortir du collège que Flaubert se lance, en 1840, dans l’écriture de *Novembre*, œuvre de jeunesse la plus importante en volume et en thématiques abordées. À partir d’un événement personnel, il rédige ce récit sentimental dont la volonté « se savoure comme la mélancolie », pour citer l’une de ses lettres à sa maîtresse Louise Colet (28/10/1853). Le livre s’inscrit dans la continuité de *Mémoires d’un fou* (1838), où le narrateur raconte une rencontre déterminante avec une femme sur une plage à Trouville ; être aimé, voué à rester une figure idéale et inaccessible. *Novembre* se situe donc au cœur même de l’esthétique flaubertienne, empreinte de regret et d’états d’âme décrits avec acuité et profondeur. Selon Claudine Gothot-Mersch, spécialiste des manuscrits de jeunesse de Flaubert, c’est précisément avec *Novembre* que le jeune écrivain se confronte aux « problèmes de structure romanesque », auxquels il va consacrer deux années de travail intense entre 19 et 21 ans. Inspiré par la passion dévorante qu’il ressentit, à l’âge de quinze ans, pour Élisa Schlesinger, mais aussi par son initiation physique, en 1840, dans les bras d’Eulalie Foucaud de Langlade, tenancière d’hôtel à Marseille, Flaubert, propose ici, pour Henri Guillemin, « les pages les plus brûlantes, peut-être, sur la joie du corps, qui soient dans toute la prose française du siècle dernier [le XIXe] ». Préfigurant *L’Éducation sentimentale*, le récit, par sa peinture des troubles de l’adolescence et l’affirmation d’une quête d’un ailleurs chimérique, offre, d’après Antony Burgess, une introspection plus puissante que le *Werther* de Goethe, dont s’inspire Flaubert. Don Juan, René de Chateaubriand ou encore Don *Quichotte* de Cervantès sont les autres héros qui influencent cet écrivain hanté, depuis sa prime jeunesse, par une vaste culture littéraire romantique dont il s’efforça, par la suite, de se détacher. En explorant le spectre de ses émotions et en présentant son éducation sexuelle, Flaubert se réfère aussi, dans la veine des *Confessions* de Rousseau, au registre autobiographique, précurseur de l’autofiction dont Annie Ernaux est aujourd’hui l’une des meilleures représentantes. C’est d’ailleurs la dernière fois que Flaubert explore ce genre pour mieux se consacrer, par la suite, à l’écriture de romans où le narrateur, le plus neutre possible, entretient une distance avec ses personnages. Cet achat du pôle littéraire de la RMM permet enfin de rendre accessible, aux chercheurs et aux amateurs, l’un des derniers manuscrits de Flaubert qui ne faisait pas partie du domaine public. L’étude précise des ratures, corrections et repentirs est vouée à améliorer la connaissance de ce texte que Flaubert n’a jamais souhaité publier et qui parut, en 1910, trente ans après sa mort. Grâce à cette acquisition, Gustave Flaubert, manuscrit autographe complet de 191 pages sur 96 feuillets (32 x 20,5 cm) montés sur onglets, en un volume relié en cuir brun, novembre 1840 – octobre 1842. Acquis avec le concours du Fonds du patrimoine – ministère de la Culture et la participation de l’association des Amis du musée Flaubert et d’histoire de la médecine. © Réunion des Musées Métropolitains Rouen Normandie, MPMH, 2022.7 le manuscrit rejoint, 180 ans plus tard, les lieux mêmes où il a été rédigé, à savoir le musée Flaubert et d’histoire de la médecine, installé dans l’ancien logement de fonction du père de l’écrivain et dans lequel il passa les 25 premières années de son existence.

Jean-Baptiste Chatigny, représentant de l’école de peinture lyonnaise « post-troubadour », expose au Salon de 1878 à Paris un tableau intitulé Jeunesse de Jean-Jacques Rousseau, présenté dix ans plus tard dans l’exposition rétrospective du peintre à Lyon sous le titre Jean-Jacques Rousseau dans la grotte des Étroits. Ce mythe lyonnais trouve son origine dans un épisode relaté dans le livre IV des Confessions, où Rousseau se remémore une nuit passée à la belle étoile à la fin de l’été 1731, à Lyon au bord de la Saône. Modello ou ricordo, la version du musée des Beaux-Arts de Chambéry garde le souvenir du grand tableau aujourd’hui non localisé. La figure du philosophe diverge ici des stéréotypes connus, largement diffusés et souvent fantaisistes tels que « Rousseau herborisant », « Rousseau père de la Révolution française », « Rousseau à l’antique », « Rousseau pédagogue », etc. L’artiste rend un hommage sensible à l’esprit rousseauiste un siècle après sa mort. Le format paysage et le cadrage resserré invitent à méditer sur un esprit jeune et serein, nourri de lectures, dans un corps libre de vivre la volupté du sommeil en pleine nature. Le sujet de l’œuvre témoigne de la fortune des Confessions.

Sous l’impulsion du mouvement de sacralisation de l’écrivain, engagé au début du XIXe siècle, les maisons ou musées consacrés à des écrivains accueillent des visiteurs toujours plus nombreux. Ils sont devenus des institutions complexes, suivant des orientations de plus en plus diversifiées. Hier, lieux de mémoire et de pèlerinage, les maisons d’écrivain veulent aujourd’hui transmettre un savoir et se défaire enfin de la conception « fétichisante » qui leur est attribuée. » — Anneliese Depoux, *De l’espace littéraire à l’espace muséal : la muséographisation de Joachim du Bellay* Maisons d’écrivains, musées et expositions littéraires semblent jouir, ces dernières années, d’un certain regain d’intérêt. En témoignent, d’un point de vue académique, des publications récentes, aussi bien en français – *Exposer la littérature*¹ par exemple – qu’en anglais² – ou encore des thèses de doctorat, notamment celle de Justine Delassus datant de 2016³ ou bien encore celle de Marie-Clémence Régnier, soutenue à l’université Sorbonne–Paris IV en 2017 et dont la publication vient de paraître⁴. Dans son discours de prix de thèse donné en 2019 à Bayeux et consultable en ligne⁵, elle insiste plus particulièrement sur « les mises en scène de l’écrivain à demeure » comme « levier essentiel des appropriations collectives ». Ce modèle connaît d’ailleurs un certain succès : d’après la Fédération des Maisons d’écrivain et des patrimoines littéraires, 82 sites muséaux dédiés à un illustre créateur ont ainsi vu le jour entre 1950 et 2010⁶. Il arrive aussi que des institutions muséales littéraires, dont la création remonte au XIXe ou au début du XXe siècle, connaissent une dynamique nouvelle par leur rassemblement au sein d’une entité commune. C’est le cas du pôle littéraire de la Réunion des Musées Métropolitains Rouen Normandie (ci-après RMM), créé le 1er janvier 2021. La RMM, qui existe depuis le 1er janvier 2016, comprenait, jusqu’à fin décembre 2020, huit institutions regroupées, selon les spécialités de chacune, en trois pôles : un pôle Beaux-Arts (musée des Beaux-Arts, musée de la Céramique, musée Le Secq des Tournelles) ; un pôle scientifique, appelé « Beauvoisine » d’après le nom du quartier où se situent les musées qu’il rassemble (Muséum d’histoire naturelle et musée des antiquités) ; enfin, un troisième, « Arts, sciences et industries » car unissant des établissements dédiés aux techniques, aux métiers et à la mémoire ouvrière (musée industriel de la Corderie Vallois et Fabrique des savoirs). Dans une telle configuration, restait un dernier musée, à part : la maison des Champs/musée Pierre Corneille (ci-après MPC), → située à Petit-Couronne, dans la banlieue de Rouen. En 2021, trois nouveaux musées ont été rattachés à la métropole : la maison natale de Pierre Corneille, près de la place du Vieux-Marché, à Rouen (ci-après MNPC) ; le musée Flaubert et d’histoire de la médecine, rue de Lecat, à Rouen (ci-après MFHM) et le musée-pavillon Flaubert à Croisset-Canteleu (ci-après MPF). En toute logique, ces trois institutions sont venues s’agréger au musée de Petit-Couronne pour constituer un quatrième et dernier pôle, dit « littéraire » en raison de la spécificité des fonds et des espaces – anciennes maisons d’écrivain – qu’il rassemble. La mise en réseau de 4 institutions fonctionnant, auparavant, de manière indépendante invite, tout d’abord, à réinterroger l’identité et les caractéristiques de chacune : lieux d’habitation de Corneille et de Flaubert, mais aussi lieux de création et aujourd’hui lieux de mémoire ou encore lieu où s’expose en outre, pour l’un d’entre eux, l’histoire de la médecine (MFHM). Comment les inclure dans un parcours commun clair et cohérent en jouant sur ces valeurs et sur ces complémentarités ? Maisons des villes (MFHM, MNPC) et maisons des champs (MPC, MPF), pourvues (sauf pour la MNPC) d’un jardin, offrent un paysage patrimonial qui révèle la diversité du territoire normand et la richesse de son histoire. Inaugurée en 1879 après cinq ans de travaux, la Maison des Champs, peu de temps après la Maison Jean de la Fontaine en 1876, est l’un des plus anciens musées d’écrivain à avoir ouvert ses portes au public en France. Ce type de lieu s’inscrit dans le droit fil d’une tradition qui voit le jour au dernier tiers du XVIIIe siècle : celle de « la visite au grand écrivain », décrite par Olivier Nora dans le tome II des Lieux de mémoire*. Cent ans plus tard, « nombreux sont les documents qui présentent le domicile des écrivains comme un lieu de sociabilité essentiel dans la vie littéraire », comme le précise Alexia Kalantzis*. La mobilisation, dès 1904, en faveur de la sauvegarde du Pavillon de Flaubert à Croisset relève de cette même tradition mémorielle : le site se visite depuis 1906. Côté Corneille, c’est une commémoration – le tricentenaire de la naissance du dramaturge en 1906 – qui donne son origine à l’actuelle Maison natale Pierre Corneille, que l’on peut découvrir depuis 1921 ; année où se célébrait, par ailleurs, le centenaire de la naissance de Flaubert… À cette occasion, sous l’impulsion de l’académicien Louis Bertrand, l’on s’intéressa enfin au sort de la chambre natale de l’écrivain, sise alors dans un musée d’histoire de la médecine installé, depuis 1901, dans l’ancien logement de fonction des chirurgiens-chef de l’Hôtel-Dieu de Rouen, qui fut notamment celui de la famille Flaubert. Un laboratoire d’histologie ayant pris place dans ce lieu sans prix aux yeux des admirateurs de l’auteur de Madame Bovary (1857)*, une mobilisation se constitua pour restaurer la chambre et redonner toute sa place à Flaubert au sein de cette institution qui, depuis sa réouverture en 1947 après l’interruption de la guerre, assume une identité double de musée de la médecine et musée Flaubert. Les quatre musées du pôle littéraire de la Réunion des musées métropolitains Rouen Normandie ont donc pour particularité d’avoir été des lieux de vie de deux auteurs français majeurs des XVIIe et XIXe siècles, avec pour vocation de préserver leur mémoire pour les générations futures. Ce type d’approche, qui n’est pas sans entraîner une certaine « fétichisation » des auteurs au cœur de scénographies quelque peu figées, pose question au XXIe siècle. Fort de l’intérêt croissant des publics pour les lieux de mémoire et les patrimoines littéraires, il s’agit de repenser l’offre muséale pour correspondre au mieux à de nouvelles attentes. À ce titre, une question s’impose : comment transformer ces maisons d’écrivain en authentiques musées littéraires, propres à accueillir d’autres formes d’expositions, de présentations et de médiations au service d’une redécouverte de la littérature et de l’écriture, sans pour autant négliger la dimension biographique, mémorielle de visiteurs également désireux de retrouver l’esprit et l’ambiance de ces anciens lieux de vie ? Ces questions doivent en tout cas s’envisager dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire, ouverte à ces enjeux du XXIe siècle que représentent, entre autres, le numérique, l’écoresponsabilité, l’égalité homme-femme, la diversification des publics, la transdisciplinarité et l’ancrage sur un territoire. À cette fin, que doivent et que peuvent montrer des musées dont la matière première même – la littérature – apparaît, par définition, immatérielle ? Comment orchestrer ce « passage du lisible au visible », dont parle Alain Fleischer, tant il est vrai qu’un écrivain « s’expose à la lecture, non à la contemplation visuelle » ? Les quatre musées, à travers tableaux, objets et meubles d’époque, évoquent non seulement la vie mais aussi l’œuvre des auteurs dans une approche contextuelle – pour ce qui relève de la biographie – et illustrative – en donnant à voir ce que romans ou pièces ont inspiré, y compris à des artistes contemporains. De tels partis-pris présentent des limites. Si la *period room* propose au public des éléments concrets à regarder, elle rencontre, d’un point de vue scientifique, les limites propres à toute reconstitution – pour ne pas dire réinterprétation d’espaces, qui de plus ont été modifiés avec le temps suite à de nécessaires travaux d’aménagement (MPC) ou à d’amples modifications de l’environnement urbain (MNPC). De telles propositions muséales, par ailleurs, ne permettent pas véritablement d’éclairer l’œuvre ni le métier d’écrivain. Comme le résume Dominique Viart : « Mais dans un autre décor, eût-il écrit différemment ? » La fabrique de l’œuvre se révèle bien davantage à travers brouillons, notes, manuscrits, correspondance et autres documents d’archive, du moins pour ce qui concerne Flaubert tant ces données sont absentes ou du moins très lacunaires côté Corneille. La découverte de la genèse du texte, à travers la présentation de manuscrits, constitue toujours un attendu pour tout musée littéraire ne voulant pas se cantonner à de l’anecdotique, aussi passionnant soit-il : « Exposer la littérature déborde largement l’exposition du manuscrit, mais celui-ci représente la source de l’œuvre et suscite par avance curiosité, respect et admiration. Cette perception est relativement récente. En effet, l’acceptation contemporaine du manuscrit comme objet digne d’être conservé date du XVIIIe et surtout du XIXe siècle ; elle est rattachée à l’évolution de la reconnaissance de l’auteur comme créateur individuel. » La fragilité propre à ces originaux ne permet pas leur inclusion dans des parcours permanents. Toutefois, le numérique ouvre aujourd’hui de nouvelles voies pour présenter, explorer et mettre en perspective ces documents rares. La récente exposition pour le centenaire de la disparition de Marcel Proust, à la Bibliothèque nationale de France (11 octobre 2022 – 22 janvier 2023), a ainsi été l’occasion de mieux appréhender les différentes étapes par lesquelles l’écrivain est passé, grâce à des reconstitutions vidéo montrant ratures, corrections et ajouts apparaître sur l’écran, plaçant le spectateur face au cœur battant de l’activité créative. Reste, pour les maisons d’écrivain en passe de devenir de véritables musées littéraires, à trouver un équilibre entre une « débauche de spectacularisation » et de dispositifs immersifs – tentation forte des temps présents – et l’aspect parfois trop figé d’une « patrimonialisation du littéraire » excessive et qui crée une distance entre les contenus exposés et les publics. L’analyse des inventaires et la bonne et juste compréhension et mise en valeur des collections paraissent indispensables pour éviter cet écueil. Le défi consiste, également, à trouver une complémentarité adéquate entre parcours dit « permanent » et expositions temporaires, dans des espaces muséaux contraints qui nécessitent de repenser les propositions scénographiques. Cette réflexion est précisément en cours au sein du pôle littéraire de la RMM comme le montre l’exposition « Flaubert, corps et âme » (28 octobre 2022 – 21 mai 2023), au musée Flaubert et d’histoire de la médecine. Trois salles au premier étage du musée ont été repensées pour accueillir un accrochage pluridisciplinaire qui reflète l’identité des lieux et des collections – à travers notamment la présentation d’objets médicaux et d’œuvres visuelles ou en relief illustrant la thématique du corps. Cette exposition – dans le cadre du « Temps des collections » de la RMM qui incite les onze musées à faire découvrir et redécouvrir leurs collections – a été l’occasion d’un dialogue fructueux avec le Muséum d’histoire naturelle – copilote du projet – pour mieux mettre en exergue le corps animal dans la correspondance et l’œuvre de Flaubert – mais aussi avec le musée des Beaux-Arts, au travers de prêts démontrant combien *Madame Bovary* a inspiré peintres et illustrateurs ; œuvres qui accompagnent l’exploration du corps désirant et fantasmé dans la littérature flaubertienne. L’insertion de douches sonores, d’activités pour les plus jeunes – accompagnées d’un livret – ou encore la création d’un espace réservé à la lecture répond à un désir du public d’être davantage autonome et actif durant sa visite. Une résidence artistique, couplée à un travail en art plastique avec des classes de collège sur le thème de l’exposition, laisse aussi la part belle au dialogue et à l’action, avec à la clé une création collective inédite, dont la restitution est prévue lors de la Nuit des musées 2023. À la Maison natale Pierre Corneille, un atelier d’écriture est proposé sur le thème du cabinet de curiosités pour le Printemps des poètes 2023. Enfin, dans le droit fil des podcasts sur les héroïnes flaubertiennes produits à l’occasion du bicentenaire de la naissance de Flaubert en 2021, les contenus et médiations numériques, pensés avec les publics, doivent se développer pour répondre à de nouvelles attentes et favoriser l’accès aux contenus sans restriction géographique ou temporelle. Renouveau des quatre maisons d’écrivain, équilibre entre collections permanentes et expositions, introduction de dispositifs interactifs et co-construction, accessibilité, travail en réseau et politique d’acquisition dynamique (cf. p.12) constituent autant de pistes porteuses d’avenir dans le cadre d’un projet scientifique et culturel (PSC) en cours d’élaboration. Il s’agit en somme de sortir le champ littéraire de son pré carré afin de l’aborder dans un cadre élargi où la culture visuelle et sonore doivent trouver leur place, tout comme les appropriations culturelles diverses et variées de la littérature par la société, particulièrement à l’heure du numérique. C’est ainsi que naîtront de fructueux dialogues entre musées, littérature, visiteurs et lecteurs, au sein d’une réelle expérience commune.* **RETROUVEZ CES QUATRE MAISONS D’ÉCRIVAIN SUR LE SITE DE LA FÉDÉRATION :** - [https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/57-musee-pierre-corneille-rmn](https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/57-musee-pierre-corneille-rmn) - [https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/58-musee-litteraire-pierre-corneille-rmn](https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/58-musee-litteraire-pierre-corneille-rmn) - [https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/80-pavillon-gustave-flaubert-rmn](https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/80-pavillon-gustave-flaubert-rmn) - [https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/81-musee-flaubert-et-d-histoire-de-la-medecine-rmn](https://litterature-lieux.com/fr/guide/lieu/81-musee-flaubert-et-d-histoire-de-la-medecine-rmn) **Notes** 1.

Liège 2023 : un patrimoine littéraire se met à jour ! Liège... Une capitale d’une principauté indépendante jusqu’en 1794, puis un chef-lieu de département de la république française... Ensuite, après 1815, quinze ans à rester modestement chef-lieu de province au royaume des Pays-Bas, et puis chef-lieu de la province de Liège au sein du débutant royaume de Belgique de 1830... Une ville d’histoire blottie dans un coude de la Meuse. Le développement d’un patrimoine littéraire centré sur la fiction prend comme point de départ la parution d’un titre de l’Écossais Walter Scott, Quentin Durward en 1823. D’abord publié chez Hurts & Robinson à Londres le 17 mai, voilà ce roman pris en charge à Paris par l’éditeur bien connu Charles Gosselin. Aussitôt repérés par Victor Hugo en personne, les exploits de ce jeune homme amènent le succès. L’intrigue prend comme décor les rivalités de Charles, duc de Bourgogne (devenu dans l’histoire Le Téméraire) et le roi de France Louis XI. Malgré leurs dissensions, ils s’unissent pour écraser les révoltés de cette ville principautaire qu’est Liège en 1468. Ce sont les faits racontés par le roman avec plus ou moins d’authenticité ; Durward, jeune archer au service du roi, vient à Liège escorter une bien jolie jeune fille... Liège devient donc l’aboutissement de l’expédition à partir d’un chapitre titré The city. Et c’est tout un honneur pour la ville de pouvoir exister à l’aide d’une fiction venue d’Écosse, passée par Londres, repartie en France, aux Pays-Bas, en Allemagne et de continuer sa vie romanesque en Italie et plus tard aux États-Unis... Patrimoine disparu... Cette présence n’a pourtant généré aucune trace matérielle dans la ville. De l’époque décrite, il ne reste rien puisque le duc de Bourgogne a ordonné la destruction systématique de Liège par le feu d’où son surnom de « Cité ardente » inventé par un romancier bruxellois qui raconte le même épisode historique. De 1823 il reste bien sûr de nombreux bâtiments, rues et ruelles, mais ils ne sont pas identifiables dans le roman puisque Walter Scott n’est pas venu sur place prendre des informations. La grande, la magnifique cathédrale dédiée à Saint-Lambert est présente dans le roman, mais plus dans la ville d’aujourd’hui : elle a été proprement saccagée lors de la révolution et détruite à jamais. Les intellectuels littéraires liégeois, pourtant fort actifs, ont ignoré la présence de leur ville dans cette fiction, alors que Quentin Durward fait l’objet d’une adaptation au cinéma en 1955, et pour la télévision en 1972. Cette dernière transposition est encore présente dans les souvenirs des téléspectateurs de ces années de gloire pour ce genre de feuilletons. Ivanhoé, Thierry La Fronde, Lagardère, Arsène Lupin, Monte-Cristo sont des héros littéraires ragaillaris par le petit écran. Quentin Durward, brave Écossais arrivé à Liège, a sombré dans l’oubli dans la ville de ses exploits. Pas un nom de rue, pas une statue, pas une plaque, rien. Liège n’a jamais eu le souci de marquer d’une empreinte durable le passage fictionnel du héros créé par Sir Walter Scott, le chef de file du romantisme littéraire. Maastricht, la voisine de → Meuse éloignée de trente kilomètres, a bien compris que d’Artagnan pouvait être un atout pour ses visites, lui qui meurt sur les remparts de cette ville dans le dernier tome du *Vicomte de Bragelonne*. Le tort de Quentin Durward est d’être resté un personnage de passage et non un héros : Scott ne l’a pas fait mourir à Liège... Le seul héros littéraire que Liège honore par une statue et des promenades est Jules Maigret, le fameux commissaire qui est venu par deux fois enquêter à Liège par *Le pendu de Saint-Pholien* et *La danseuse du Gai Moulin*. Le commissaire et sa pipe trônent fièrement au milieu d’une place qui porte son nom, tandis que son créateur Georges Simenon, enfant de Liège, possède son centre d’étude mais attend toujours la maison qui honorerait son œuvre et sa mémoire de jeune reporter liégeois. **Liège 2023** Deux cents ans ont passé depuis la publication du roman en langue française. Et cette fois Liège ne veut pas rater ce double centenaire. Du coup sa bibliothèque patrimoniale, la Bibliothèque Ulysse Capitaine, va ouvrir ses collections et proposer l’exposition de deux cents romans qui constituent le patrimoine fictionnel de la ville. Venus d’une douzaine de pays et bien sûr du pays de Liège, des volumes (signés Agatha Christie, William Mc Givern, Graham Greene, San Antonio, Dumas, Hugo, etc…) seront exposés et consultables sur place. La BUC proposera plusieurs versions de *Quentin Durward*, dont les trois volumes publiés en 1827 par un éditeur local... À cette occasion, durant l’été, deux promenades auront pour thème *Quentin Durward 1823-2023* et seront menées à partir de l’esplanade Saint Georges, siège de la BUC (programme de la Maison du tourisme du Pays de Liège). Quant à Simenon, la Ville ne l’oublie pas en cette année qui commémore les 120 ans de sa naissance à Liège. Il sera fêté par un *Printemps Simenon* consacré à son œuvre et des promenades autour des bibliothèques de quartier, organisées par les bibliothèques et le Service de Lecture Publique de la ville de Liège, du 8 au 11 mars 2023. Durward est de retour dans une ville qui va continuer à proposer aux visiteurs français le récit de sa propre naissance littéraire et espère ainsi poser sa candidature comme *Ville créative UNESCO* dans les prochaines années. *Guy Delhasse, guide littéraire, Association Les Littérantes* --- **Informations pratiques :** - Exposition à la Bibliothèque Ulysse Capitaine, du 3 juillet au 31 août : 200 romans du monde entier qui évoquent Liège. - Balade *Quentin Durward* dans la ville le samedi 1er juillet et le samedi 5 août, menées par Guy Delhasse, guide littéraire dans la ville : email@example.com - Festivités *Printemps Simenon*, du 8 au 11 mars 2023, organisées par le centre d’Étude Georges Simenon et l’université de Liège : www.news.uliege.be/cms/c_17152894/fr/le-printemps-simenon-a-liege-en-mars-2023 - Balades *Maigret* à Liège et rencontres autour des auteurs de polars liégeois, héritiers ou non de Simenon.

Le centenaire du décès de Pierre Loti L'Association internationale des Amis de Pierre Loti (AIAPL) commémorera cette année le Centenaire de la mort de Pierre Loti, intervenue le 10 juin 1923 à Hendaye. Une manifestation sera organisée à l'Académie française le 10 mai 2023 qui verra, entre autres, la présentation du timbre commémoratif sollicité et obtenu auprès de La Poste, dont le premier jour d'émission sera le 9 juin 2023. Par ailleurs, l'AIAPL coédite une édition critique du discours de réception de Pierre Loti à l'Académie française, réalisée par Alain Quella-Villégier avec une préface de Bruno Vercier, qui sera présentée le 10 mai à l'Académie française. Un hommage, avec la Société nationale de secours en mer (SNSM), station Saint Jean de Luz-Ciboure, dont le canot de sauvetage porte le nom de Pierre Loti depuis 1973, aura lieu le 14 juillet 2023. L'AIAPL sera présente aux côtés des municipalités organisant des manifestations comme Rochefort et Saint-Pierre d'Oléron et les informations concernant d'autres projets, en cours d'élaboration, seront communiquées au fil des mois. Un onglet spécifique « Centenaire » a été créé sur le site internet de l'AIAPL : http://pierreloti.eu/ Vies encloses, demeures écloses Par Marie-Clémence Régnier, membre de la Fédération. Une étude de la maison-musée de l’écrivain, retraçant la patrimonialisation des figures d’écrivain au croisement de la littérature et de l’histoire culturelle. Le livre propose une archéologie des représentations collectives se rapportant à l’espace domestique de l’écrivain et à son œuvre. La maison-musée de l’écrivain est considérée comme un lieu réel et comme une structure mentale et matérielle où s’inventent, s’organisent, s’exposent et sont conservées des images d’écrivain qui définissent un imaginaire et une imagerie cohérents de la figure de l’écrivain. Partant, le livre montre que les mises en scène de l’écrivain à demeure constituent un levier essentiel des appropriations mémoireuelles collectives des écrivains et de leurs œuvres parce qu’elles cristallisent des représentations mythiques à succès qui s’actualisent dans l’esprit du temps. Plus largement, elles participent à l’écriture de l’histoire littéraire qui s’institutionnalise au XIXe siècle. Enfin, il s’agit de comprendre les enjeux de poétique et de réception qui lient les maisons des écrivains à leur œuvre littéraire. Presses Universitaires de Rennes, 15,5x21 cm, 370 p., 26 €, janvier 2023. Céline, le médecin-écrivain Par David Labreure. Derrière les rebondissements éditoriaux et les polémiques, on oublie souvent que Louis-Ferdinand Céline fut aussi médecin et un auteur prolifique de textes et d’articles sur les questions d’hygiène et de santé publique. La plupart de ces publications scientifiques étaient signés Louis Destouches, à commencer par sa thèse de médecine sur Ignace Philippe Semmelweis (1924). Toute son œuvre littéraire porte également la trace d’un intérêt profond pour la médecine, tant dans ses romans les plus célèbres que dans ses pamphlets qui en témoignent aussi pour le pire. Chez Céline, le statut du médecin et celui de l’écrivain se retrouvent étroitement et perpétuellement mêlés : à l’époque de Voyage au bout de la nuit (1932), celui-ci se présente avant tout en médecin, alors que c’est le romancier que les journalistes viennent interroger. C’est donc bien parce que Céline est devenu écrivain par la suite que les écrits médicaux apparaissent, a posteriori, dignes d’intérêt. Ce dernier ne s’est contenté ni d’être seulement médecin, ni tout à fait uniquement écrivain. Fort d’une connaissance en histoire sociale, médicale et littéraire, David Labreure s’est attaché à retraverser la vie et l’œuvre de Céline sous cet angle original. C’est ce continuel dialogue à trois voix entre l’homme, le médecin et l’écrivain qui sera au cœur de cet essai biographique. Docteur en lettres modernes, David Labreure a consacré sa thèse à l’hygiénisme chez Céline. Directeur du musée et du centre d’archives « La Maison d’Auguste Comte », il a publié Le Paris d’Auguste Comte (Éditions Alexandrines, 2022). Il est aussi président de la Fédération nationale des maisons d’écrivain et des patrimoines littéraires. Bartillat, Paris, 2023. Jules Lemire, prêtre et élu du peuple Par Colette Hus-David. Mettre la figure de l’abbé Lemire à la portée d’un public qui n’irait pas vers une biographie « classique », c’est le pari relevé par Colette Hus-David, illustratrice pour l’édition et pour la presse jeunesse. Son grand-père collabora au Cri des Flandres, le journal local fondé par l’abbé Lemire. Elle connaissait donc ce personnage par la tradition familiale. Et comme on ne le voit qu’en noir et blanc, l’idée de retracer sa vie en couleur est venue. Le récit de cette bande dessinée, empruntant une trame chronologique, est mené avec un style simple et clair, adapté au jeune public. La caution scientifique a été apportée par l’association Mémoire de l’abbé Lemire qui a suivi toutes les phases du projet. *Marais du Livre Éditions, Hazebrouck, 23 x 32 cm, 48 p., 19,90 €, 2022.* **Flaubert au Collège royal de Rouen, 1832-1839** L’Association des Amis de Flaubert et de Maupassant publie un hors-série consacré à *Flaubert au Collège royal de Rouen, 1832-1839*, sous la direction de Joëlle Robert. Le volume fait un point complet sur la formation intellectuelle et littéraire du jeune Gustave. En annexe : le livret de l’exposition présentée au Musée national de l’éducation de Rouen en 2021, le tableau de la scolarité de Flaubert, l’inventaire de tous ses devoirs et notes scolaires et deux devoirs inédits. Dans *Les Mémoires d’un fou* et *Novembre*, les deux récits de jeunesse à caractère autobiographique, Flaubert donne une image négative de ses années au Collège royal de Rouen. Exclu de l’établissement dès le premier trimestre de la classe de Philosophie, obligé de passer son baccalauréat en candidat libre, l’écolier affirme qu’il y fut « froissé » dans ses « goûts » comme dans ses « idées ». Il doit pourtant beaucoup à la formation qu’il a reçue au Collège. Son amour de l’Antiquité et de l’histoire en général, sa passion pour la littérature dès son plus jeune âge lui viennent de remarquables professeurs. L’école du XIXe siècle dispense une solide culture classique, basée sur l’enseignement des « humanités » et de la rhétorique. Le futur écrivain se forme dans ces années où il subit les contraintes de la discipline en commençant à écrire librement. Ce volume tente de cerner le rôle que le Collège royal de Rouen a pu jouer dans les années d’apprentissage de Gustave Flaubert.

Adam attend patiemment dans la salle d’attente de son médecin généraliste. Il arrive au soir de sa vie, incapable de contrôler ses souvenirs, jusqu’à mettre en scène sa propre mort. Il essaie de s’évader dans les œuvres de ses auteurs préférés, surtout André Gide et ses *Nourritures terrestres*. Mais n’aurait-il pas goûté un peu trop vite certains fruits défendus ? Adam a-t-il pris les bonnes décisions le concernant ? Ce roman est une interrogation sur le temps qui passe, sur la beauté fragile de la nature et sur les choix auxquels se confronte tout individu dans son existence. Après une carrière dans l’action culturelle, Georges Buisson a été pendant plus de dix années administrateur du domaine de George Sand à Nohant, du palais Jacques Coeur et de la crypte de la cathédrale Saint-Etienne à Bourges, pour le Centre des monuments nationaux. Il préside actuellement le conseil d’administration de la Maison de la culture de Bourges, entre autres. Il donne régulièrement des conférences sur des sujets littéraires ou historiques. *Éditions l’Harmattan, 13,5 x 21,5 cm, 242 p., ISBN : 978-2-14-027319-3, 22,50 €, août 2022.* **PARUTIONS DIVERSES** *Corneille de circonstance.

Проф. Нина Дюлгерова: Изборите в Грузия – барометър на сигурността в Черно море Проф. Нина Дюлгерова пред <b>Агенция "Фокус" </b>. <i> За ситуацията в Грузия след проведените там на 5 януари 2008 година президентски избори <b>Агенция "Фокус"</b> потърси коментара на професора по международно право и международни отношения Нина Дюлгерова от Варненския Свободен университет</i> <b>"Фокус":</b> Професор Дюлгерова, как може да се оцени ситуацията в Грузия след проведените там на 5 януари 2008 година президентски избори? <b>Проф. Нина Дюлгерова:</b> В Грузия, за втори път в рамките на четири години, се провеждат предсрочни президентски избори. През декември 2003 година в резултат на народното недоволство (известно като революцията на розите) бяха анулирани редовните президентските избори и проведени нови, които Михаил Саакашвили печели убедително с 97%, През януари 2008 година Михаил Саакашвили отново е претендент за президентския пост. На 7 януари всички информационни средства официално обявиха резултатите на Централната избирателна комисия, съгласно които той отново е избран с 52,8% за президент на Грузия за следващите пет години. Легитимността на изборите е призната от международните наблюдатели, след като в тях са участвали над 56.17 %, с което е спазено условието за участие на над 50% от населението на страната. Резултатите от тези избори са своеобразен етап в започналата през есента на 2007 г. борба на опозицията в Грузия срещу управляващия елит. Многобройните митинги и демонстрации, срещу които властта положи големи усилия да потуши, предизвикаха международното недоволство и реакция, които принудиха Саакашвили да насрочи предсрочни президентски избори. Разбира се, още на 6 януари опозиционните лидери категорично заявиха, че няма да признаят тези избори, изтъквайки големия брой нарушения както преди, така и в изборния ден. Нещо повече лидерите на опозицията обявиха, че през следващите дни чрез легитимни средства ще изразят своето несъгласие с обявените резултати..Най-силно недоволство изрази вторият в изборните резултати, Леван Гачечиладзе, лидерът на обединената опозиция. Спечелилият макар и с малко Саакашвили разруши надеждите за балотаж, където резултатът можеше да бъде съвсем друг. Но реалностите са тези, които както ЦИК, така и международните наблюдатели обявиха. <b>"Фокус":</b> Какво следва оттук нататък? <b>Проф. Нина Дюлгерова:</b> След 5 януари 2008 година де юре Михаил Саакашвили запазва властта си, но тази власт той я получава с доста усилия и с много по-ниски резултати от декември 2003 г. Както извън Грузия, така и в нея, всички наблюдатели твърдят, че това е един доста нисък резултат, но той не променя ситуацията. Тя няма да се промени и въпреки изразеното от Министерството на външните работи на Русия несъгласие с обявените резултати, Михаил Саакашвили остава на втори петгодишен президентски мандат. Процесите оттук нататък са интересни, защото до есента на 2007 година Михаил Саакашвили се явяваше обединителната фигура, независимо от несъгласията на разпръснатата опозицията. Нещо повече: той олицетворяваше идеята на обединена Грузия, която да се превърне в своеобразен стълб на стабилността в Кавказкия регион. Това обаче не се осъществи. Нещо повече, през есента на 2007 г. неговата политика беше поставена на голямо изпитание от един съществен фактор, който е част от процесите, наблюдавани в Южнокавказките държави - икономическия. Това доведе до митинги и вълнения през есента на 2007 година, които бяха мотивирани не само политически, но и от икономическите ексцесии в държавата. Това определя ефимерността на политическата победа на Михаил Саакашвили дотолкова, доколкото той с нея не решава икономическите проблеми на обществото, които през следващите месеци ще засилват напрежението в страната. В своята предизборна кампания старият/нов президент отново реши да заложи на един доскоро безотказен коз. На 3 януари 2008 г. той отново издигна призива за обединението на Грузия, което продължава да не съществува и в следващите месеци едва ли ще бъде реализирано. <b>"Фокус":</b> Как тези избори ще се отразят на отношенията Грузия-Русия? <b>Проф. Нина Дюлгерова:</b>Има още един мотив, който може да се използва много активно в политически план както от управляващия елит, така и от опозицията. През есента на 2008 г. се очакват парламентарни избори в Грузия, а паралелно с тях и референдум за членство на Грузия в НАТО. Както опозиция, така и управляващи са единни в идеята си, че Грузия трябва да стане член на НАТО. Постоянни са призивите и за членство в ЕС, а също така още един обединяващ управляващи и опозиция факт. И двете страни категорично не искат да бъдат свързвани с Русия. И опозицията, и управляващите търсят подкрепата на САЩ и гарантират, че са проамерикански и проевропейски ориентирани. Подозрителност и отказ от свързване с Русия, независимо от нейното желание за съпричастност и евентуална подкрепа. Това е естествен процес, който в по-голяма или помалка степен съпътства промените в Евразийския регион (Кавказ и Централна Азия). Специално в Грузия нихилизмът по отношение на Кремъл се засилва в резултат на активната и последователна антируска кампания, водена от грузинския президент през последните няколко години. Русия е изправена пред едно предизвикателство, което е свързано в чисто геополитически план с идеята колко и как тя ще може да участва и контролира процесите в Южен Кавказ. Това е проблем, свързан най-вече с енергийните схеми и с т.нар. замразени конфликти. И Абхазия, и Южна Осетия по редица причини са по-близко до Москва, отколкото до Тбилиси. Там ситуацията е такава, че може да се говори за държави, които нямат международна легитимност, но имат всички признаци на държавност. В случая, 5 януари 2008 година е поредното доказателство, че Михаил Саакашвили получава политическата победа, но като цяло губи в перспектива стабилността на своите позиции. Максималното използване на държавната машина в изборната подготовка в краен резултат доведоха до предсказуемата изборна победа. Но доколко и как това ще спомогне да се решат икономическите проблеми, интеграционните процеси, а през есента повторна победа на неговата партия "Единно национално движение" в парламентарните избори - това е нещо много спорно и непредсказуемо. <b>"Фокус":</b> Какви са оттук нататък европейските перспективи на Грузия? <b>Проф. Нина Дюлгерова:</b> Ако погледнем на президентските избори през призмата на България, ЕС и държавите от Черноморския регион, аз съм склонна да мисля, че няма нищо да се промени, тъй като в момента ситуацията е такава, че оставайки на власт, както Саакашвили, така и политическия елит, реално ще запазят статуквото - и вътре в страната, и в международен план. Отново ще има призиви за по-тясно сътрудничество с ЕС и САЩ. Отново ще има къде публични, къде повече в "зоната на здрача" взаимоотношения с България, най-вече в областта на енергетиката, но може би и на въоръжаването, тъй като през последните години излязоха информации за оръжейни сделки между България и Грузия. Но защо не, като се има пред вид, че всяка една от двете държави може да предложи и да обмени нещо, което другата няма. Освен това в Грузия опозицията вече се превръща в реална заплаха за режима на Саакашвили, който през следващите месеци ще бъде принуден да се съобразява с тях и да промени в една или друга посока своето присъствие във вътрешното политическото и икономическото пространство, ако иска да запази властта. Индикация за това е и фактът, че жестокостта, с която бяха потушени недоволствата на опозицията и на населението през есента на 2007 г. и най-вече силната негативна реакция на международната общност, както в институционален, така и в обществен план, е един голям урок за Саакашвили, ако го е научил. На второ място, е обстоятелството, че той вече не е единствен. За разлика от предишните периоди, когато в президентскини избори в Грузия, винаги имаше един силен кандидат, а другите бяха фигуранти, то през 2008 година вече има доста сериозно присъствие и на други политически лица, които вече са припознати и от международните институции. Това означава, че Михаил Саакашвили вече няма да бъде приеман като единствен представител на държавата Грузия, който да олицетворява тази политическа единица във всички международни организации и институции. Както Леван Гачечиладзе, така и най-богатият грузинец Аркадий (Бадри) Патаркацишвили, реално са вече познаваеми лица, които дават основание да се предполага, че следващите месеци ще бъдат изпълнени с доста интересни политически действия, сценарии и конфигурации, които през есента на 2008 г. могат да изненадат сериозно самата Грузия, нейните съседи и света. Ако се промени сегашната политически ситуация в Грузия, тогава вече ще може да се правят и сценарии и ще може да се търсят варианти в новата ситуация.

While Sean Robbins began his musical journey in rural Puna, Hawaiʻi, where he was born and raised, his music has reached audiences throughout the world. Robbins is quickly being recognized as one of Hawaii's top young artists as his music can be heard on radio stations throughout Hawaiʻi. Robbins' hit single Ka Lehua might, in fact, be the first thing you hear upon arriving in the islands as it's currently being featured aboard Hawaiian Airlines. As a young composer, his melodies have been described as pure to the ear and soul. His talent for songwriting and musicianship was recognized from an early age as he was taken under the wing of legendary Hawaiian artist Cyril Pahinui and, at age 15, performed on National Public Radio's From the Top program. In late 2014, Pahinui produced Robbins' debut album, Olanui, which went on to win a Hōkū in the Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards with Robbins also being nominated for most promising artist of the year. Recently returning home from his self-­‐produced Olanui tour with Miss Aloha Hula Nāmakana Davis Lim, he will be live in concert at the Honolulu Museum of Art's Doris Duke Theatre on April 20th. Robbins currently resides in Mānoa valley, where he's collaborating with some of Hawaiian music's top names in preparation for his sophomore release.

ISSN 2524-1478 (Online) International Journal of Social and Development Concerns Special Issue Social Work During COVID-19 Special Issue | Social and development concerns in Africa (c) Special Issue on Social Work During COVID-19: Editorial | March 2021 Copyright © 2021 The International Journal of Social and Development Concerns (IJSDC) All Rights Reserved (An International Publisher for Academic and Scientific Resources) Editorial Editors: 1 Norvy Paul, 2 Johnson Mavole and 3 Arya Chandran 1 The Catholic University of Eastern Africa, Nairobi 2 St. Augustine University of Tanzania, Mwanza City 3Bharathamatha School of Social Work, Kochin, India The flash of the current pandemic Covid-19 has been declared as a global crisis and the greatest challenge humanity has faced since World War II. It has taken a significant toll on people around the world. The COVID-19 outbreak affects all segments of the population and is particularly detrimental to members of those social groups in the most vulnerable situations be it, people living in poverty situations, older persons, persons with disabilities, youth, migrants and indigenous peoples. They stand to suffer disproportionately from the pandemic and its aftermath. Whether due to limited movement, fewer employment opportunities, social distancing, economic crisis, domestic violence; they are affected socially, economically and psychologically. The occurrence of a future pandemic also, cannot be denied fully. Global Ravage of COVID'19 infected more than 7 million people and cost more than three hundred thousand lives. It affected all spheres of human living and all walks of life irrespective of cultural, social, political, economic and physical boundaries that constructed due to narrow perception of time-place-personal patronages. Social workers are challenged to respond constructively to restrain, restore and reconstruct human living in the pandemic period performing three essential role; Promotive, Preventive, and Responsive functions by the application of social work methods irrespective of specialized intervention challenges incorporating or inculcating spirit of professionalism, and becoming part of multi-disciplinary team (As Promotive: advocate, coordinate, educate, train, manage, monitor; A preventive: identify vulnerable household, work with community leaders, provide remote psychosocial support, reinforce gatekeeping (family) carry out contact tracing; Responsive: provide protection and support, identify emergency alternatives care, carry out management process, provide or supervise psychosocial support, manage cash transfer, provide bereavement counselling). The responses to COVID-19 crisis are varied with multipronged dimensions. Health workers responded addressing health emergencies but economic and social concerns clubbed with pandemic crisis initially ignored and later incorporated gradually. Considering pandemic challenges faced across globe it is identified that the social workers have pivotal role to play. This poise challenge to social workers to drift away from some traditional practices and adapt new practices that address risks both at individual, family and community level preventing stigma and psychosocial disorders and distress with caseloads and bring normalcy in human living which is possible only when social workers decide the priority areas of intervention without setting aside the demands to address various emerging problems as a by-product of pandemic. Social workers are therefore challenged to make use of social work methods in the emerging scenario and decide future course of actions to cope up with or face new changing equations of human living and human relationship that demands an attitude that preserve social work values, principles and philosophy open to new personal and professional skills and knowledge. At this juncture, professional social work has a greater duty and ethical responsibility to reach out to these vulnerabilities and step up for the vulnerable. The authentic professional base of the discipline provides us with a repertoire of methods, tools and techniques that could be applied remedially, restoratively, preventively and developmentally. A common platform to raise this concern and seek practical ideas and inputs was the need of the hour. Hence, The Catholic University of Eastern Africa in association with Bharata Mata School of Social Work, Kerala and Association of Schools of Social Work in Kerala organised an International Conference in the mode of webinar series from June 1 st to June 4 th 2020 to create a platform for academicians and practitioners across globe to discuss on the application of various social work methods during this global crisis – COVID'-19. This special issue of this journal is the outcome of the deliberations and discussions held in the international conference. It has sixteen articles discussing the application of social work methods during pandemic in Asia and Africa. Aiming to facilitate a improved practice of social work and serve as reference to budding professionals we have brought forth this articles. The editors are grateful to Dr.Johnson Mavole who facilitated the publication of these articles.

The expiration of these rules without due consideration and processes would undermine the public health, safety, and welfare, of the citizens of Idaho and deprive them of the benefit intended by these rules. Therefore, we are adopting this temporary rule to be effective upon July 1, 2021. We are also rescinding our existing temporary rule with an effective date of July 1, 2021. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Kerrick. The vote was unanimous for approval. 3. Set the Dividend To accommodate the Governor's schedule, Commissioner Smith moved to reschedule the next meeting and dividend presentation for July 14, 2021 at 10:00 AM and the Dividend Presentation at 1:00 PM at Iowa Elementary in Nampa. Commissioner Kerrick seconded the motion. The vote was unanimous for approval. After a record year and tremendous performance with a sales increase of 34% at $372,040,500, we are recommending a record dividend this year in the amount of $72.5 million. This is $17 million more (+31%) than last year. Commissioner Kerrick moved to set the dividend for the year for $72,500,000. Commissioner Smith seconded the motion. The vote was unanimous for approval. 4. Adjournment Commissioner Smith moved to adjourn, seconded by Commissioner Smyser and the meeting was adjourned. Certification: I hereby certify that the foregoing minutes are a true and correct record of the actions and decisions made by the Lottery Commission. _____________________________________ ________________ Jeffrey R.

Poverty and Social Violence in Africa: Nigeria as Case Study ISSN 0794-4152 AfriHeritage Policy Brief No. 14 / December, 2017 Executive Summary This policy brief is a product of a larger study that focuses on the connection between poverty and social violence in Africa. Conceptually different from political violence, social violence is a form of violence that neither involves political actors nor necessarily targets the state. Often driven by very few (if any) political objectives, social violence is increasingly becoming a regular occurrence in many states across Africa and other parts of the world. Unfortunately, because of the complex nature of its causal antecedents, social violence attracts less attention from scholars and policy makers. The high incidences of poverty across many African countries -- manifest in high rates of hunger, illiteracy, unemployment and diseases -- generate hopelessness, frustration, anger and lawlessness. Drawing from that, the study forwards the argument that those factors are drivers of the increasing problem of social violence in the continent. Therefore, to address effectively the phenomenon of social violence, African governments need to be more committed to the fight against poverty and other impediments to human development. What is Social Violence? Violence is defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as "the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment, or deprivation" (http://www.who.int/).Despite that succinct articulation of the idea of violence, there are issues with respect to a clear understanding or definition of the concept of social violence as scholars and experts on conflict/war struggle to establish the differences between social violence and political violence. However, it can be deduced from the existing literature that the concept of social violence is developed enough that it does identify a particular type of violence that is different from political violence in terms of the purpose of the purveyors and the target actors involved. What is clear is that the key goal in acts of social violence is not really politically motivated. The study uses the term: "armed social violence", which is a type of violence that does not have explicit political motivations and clearly involves non-war situations. Within the context of the definition, the following are included in the concept: riots and protests, communal violence, strikes, homicide, kidnapping gang violence, and terrorism. Poverty: Still on the Rise in Africa Given its high rates of poverty, hunger and unemployment, Africa lags behind other countries around the globe when it comes its outlook and prospects for development. The statistics presented below from international development agencies demonstrate a worrying trend: Ÿ Between 1990 and 2012, the poor in Africa increased by about 100 million more people. Ÿ Africa will experience in the nearest future the world's largest concentration of the extremely poor. Ÿ ·Africa has 75% of the world's poorest countries; the Central African Republic was ranked the poorest with a GDP per capita of US$ 656 as at 2016. Ÿ Africans living in poverty rose to 330 million by 2012 as against 280 million in 1990. 1 Ÿ Sub-Saharan Africa was the least performing region regarding the MDG call to halve extreme poverty by 2015; Botswana and Equatorial Guinea were the only states that achieved the goal. Ÿ While enrolments have noticeably improved in schools, it has been observed that "more than two in five adults are still illiterate, and the quality of schooling is often low." Ÿ As many as 233 million people in Africa, out of a global total of 795 million, faced hunger or undernourishment between 2014 and 2016. This made sub-Saharan Africa the region with the second largest number of hungry people -- after Asia. Ÿ Approximately about one out of every three people living in sub-Saharan Africa is undernourished. * More worrisome is the fact that Africa remains the region with the least progress towards reducing poverty in the world (http://www.worldhunger.org/). The Poverty-Social Violence Nexus in Africa Poverty and violence are related in various ways. The first strand of explanations suggests that the linkage between poverty and violence is a question of the prevailing political and socio-economic condition of a group of people. The argument is predicated on several factors: 1) The theory that the extent of discrimination against specific groups, especially ethnic and religious groups, and existing social divisions are possible predictors of organized violence against the state or the perceived dominant group. 2) The evidence from empirical researches showing that violence is prevalent in countries with poor conditions of living and high rates of unemployment. 3) Finally, that poor countries are prone to violence given that they tend to lack the capacity to contain armed uprisings and insurgencies. Many African countries have characteristics of the phenomena as presented above. These factors cannot be disregarded in analysing the increasing incidences of social violence in the countries. A report released by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED) points to a sharp increase in the number of protests and riots since 2010 in the continent, with South Africa recording the highest while Tunisia, Ethiopia and Egypt followed. South Africa's Civic Protests Barometer reported that the years 2009 (204 incidents) and 2014 (218 incidents) saw the highest numbers of incidents of civic protests in the state. These actions are mostly carried out by the poor who see violent protests as a means to communicate their grievances over government failures in addressing glaring socioeconomic problems. In South Africa, for example, most of the violent protests are occur in poor communities (otherwise known as townships) and informal settlements. Similarly, in Nigeria -- which has an estimated 65% poverty rate and youth unemployment rate conservatively placed at 42% -- different agencies have reported that death rates are increasing due to restiveness and social violence. For example, over a tenyear period (1998-2008), it reported: 6,918 deaths (due to sectarian violence); 13,938 deaths (due to terrorismrelated violence); and 7,104 casualties (due to state terror/repression). Policy Recommendations * Commitment to poverty alleviation strategies: African governments must show more commitment and seriousness in pursuing strategies aimed at ameliorating the sufferings of their people. Presently, despite many social security programs across the continent, most of them are ineffective and inaccessible due to corruption, bureaucratization, and politicization. Governments need effective social intervention schemes to address grinding poverty and stem potential political fault lines for conflict and social instability. * Anti-corruption strategies: rampant cases of corruption ravaging many African states are not unlinked to the problem of poverty in the continent. Many of the funds intended for social interventions or developmental projects are ending up in private hands. This affects the course of development in the continent. A more radical and courageous anti-corruption system need to be institutionalized to fight corruption. In addition, the judicial system must be reformed and strengthened as a governmental branch equipped to act effectively and autonomously. * Good governance: Africa's long years of bad governance and poor service delivery have been a major setback in the efforts to achieve development in the continent. The issue of good governance has been a focus of The African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance (the Democracy Charter), and the New Partnership for African Development (NEPAD). However, not much has been achieved since the instruments were established. That must be reversed! * Effective socio-economic policy: The lack of direction in many existing government policies is also a major problem in the path of development in Africa. As such, governments must focus their policy frameworks seriously on achieving economic growth and development. * Regional cooperation on social violence: It is important that social violence is included in the categories of violence and conflicts to be addressed in Africa. The existing regional frameworks focus more on political violence and terrorism. Given the devastating short and long term impacts of social violence on domestic social order and value systems, the problem requires priority attention. 3 AfriHeritage Policy Brief Series contains short, soft read summaries of research findings and policy recommendations.

The Richland County Board of Commissioners met on September 1, 2015 at the Richland County Courthouse with Commissioners Sid Berg, Nathan Berseth, Tim Campbell, Rollie Ehlert, and Dan Thompson. Others in attendance were Administration Personnel Bailey and DelVal; and States Attorney McBeth. A motion was made by Campbell to approve the minutes of meetings August 4 and August 18; motion seconded by Thompson. Vote was unanimous. A motion was made by Campbell to approve the minutes of Budget Meetings August 4, August 5 and August 18; motion seconded by Ehlert. Vote was unanimous. **BUDGET DISCUSSION ITEMS** **DUI Court** - The Board recommendation was to include funding for DUI Court in the 2016 Budget. **SEMCA Supervisor Pay Step** - When Weber received a 2 step salary increase last February it created an inequity in the Sheriff Dept pay schedule. A motion was made by Campbell to keep Weber froze at his current pay position for 2016; motion seconded by Ehlert. Vote was unanimous. **Cell Phone Policy** - The Board discussed the inequity in the cell phone reimbursements. (Discussion continued later in the meeting). **HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT** Highway Personnel in attendance were Lowell Bladow and Ron Hohenstern. **Bridge 122-8.3** - Bladow reported plans were to replace Bridge 122-8.3 with a 42" culvert. The Bridge has been Rated at Code 3 or "Critical." The Township met with the Commission on August 18 and proposed a new road alignment. The Twsp got an estimate from Lowry Engineering of $250,000 to relocate the Township Road. The Board discussed different options and costs. Bladow will get a cost estimate for a concrete cattle pass and report at the next meeting. CH#1 & #3 Paving Projects - The subcontractor is planning to start sheet pile and culvert work September 8. Paving to be done in October. Wahpeton Shop Building - The floors are finished with rough-in plumbing complete. Everything is complete on the sellers end so the County can take ownership early and start doing the remainder of the work. Bladow requested authorization to get quotes on carpentry, electrical and finish plumbing. A motion was made by Thompson to complete the purchase on the Prime Concrete Building and take early possession; motion seconded by Campbell. Voting NO was Berseth, the remainder voted Yes and the motion carried. The Board discussed bidding or getting quotes for carpentry, electrical and finish plumbing - Bladow will get some quotes for the next Commission meeting. Other Department Matters - - Replace culvert in CH#16 east of Great Bend - plan to complete tomorrow - Attended meeting for pre-harvest of sugar beets BUDGET DISCUSSION ITEMS continued Cell Phones - Discussion continued from earlier in the meeting. The Board reviewed the listing of cell phones by Department and the proposed costs for budget year 2016. Following lengthy discussion - the Board directed Bailey to send an e-mail stating that beginning January 1, 2016 the County will reimburse authorized cell phone users currently receiving reimbursement at the rate of $25 per month for personal cell phones and that if the position requires more than the basic plan for County business, contact the Portfolio Commissioner. County Car Usage - The Board discussed employees using personal vehicles for travel instead of utilizing available County vehicles. It is more cost effective to drive the County vehicles than pay out mileage reimbursement. Employees will be encouraged to use available County Vehicles for travel. MISC/CORRESPONDENCE - Bailey reported a non-profit group is looking at our election sites for the state, most are ground level but do not have auto door openings - anticipate them not liking all our sites. A motion was made by Thompson to approve the payment of bills; motion seconded by Ehlert. Vote was unanimous. COMMITTEE REPORTS A) Social Service - Social Service Board Member Bev Stone is moving to Fargo so there will be a vacancy on the Board. An In-Home Care Specialist has resigned. B) Buildings & Grounds Committee - Some trees will be removed from the property. The main floor bathroom in the courthouse is being repaired due to a cracked pipe. C) Public Health - The Tobacco Coordinator has resigned - the position will be combined with Alcohol and Chronic Disease and will be advertised as a Community Prevention Coordinator. D) Job Development Board - Steady with loan requests. E) Weed Board - No Report. F) Soils Committee - No Report. G) Park Board - The next meeting is scheduled for September 14th. H) Administration - No Report. MISC/CORRESPONDENCE continued Bailey reported he received the legal description for the land in Barrie Twp, the State wants to deed back to the County. Bailey suggested the State be encouraged to deed the land to the adjacent landowner rather than the County. The Board had no objection.

Resumen: Procedimiento de fabricación de al menos una microsonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable, que comprende las etapas de: proporcionar una capa de un sustrato rígido; proporcionar una capa de un polímero soluble sobre dicha capa de sustrato rígido; proporcionar una capa de un primer polímero; grabar en dicha capa de primer polímero al menos una abertura; proporcionar una capa de un material conductor bidimensional sobre dicha capa de primer polímero; grabar en dicha capa de material conductor bidimensional al menos un microelectrodo provisto de al menos un área de contacto; proporcionar un ensamblaje de acabado sobre dicho ensamblaje de microelectrodo; y disolver dicho polímero soluble en una solución. La micro-sonda resultante queda intercalada entre dos capas de material polimérico, una de las cuales comprende una abertura para acceder a dicho área de contacto. La presente invención se refiere a un procedimiento de fabricación de al menos una micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable en el cerebro, y también se refiere a una tal micro-sonda. ESTADO DE LA TÉCNICA ANTERIOR Las tecnologías de micro-sondas neuronales ya han tenido un efecto positivo significativo en nuestra comprensión del cerebro para desvelar el funcionamiento de las redes de neuronas biológicas. Las micro-sondas neuronales proporcionan una conexión eléctrica entre el tejido neuronal biológico y dispositivos físicos y correspondientes sistemas electrónicos de control. Las micro-sondas neuronales se pueden implantar en diferentes áreas del cerebro para registrar señales procedentes de partes específicas del cerebro y/o para estimular dichas partes. Las micro-sondas neuronales se utilizan actualmente en muchos ámbitos clínicos para el diagnóstico de enfermedades del cerebro, tales como convulsiones, epilepsia, migraña, enfermedad de Alzheimer y demencia. Estos dispositivos también ayudan a pacientes afectados de parálisis, ya que pueden manejar ordenadores o robots a partir de la actividad neuronal del paciente. Una micro-sonda neuronal puede estar montada en un soporte para facilitar su manejo y conexión y para tener un mejor control de la instrumentación. La investigación en este campo ha puesto de manifiesto muchos retos relacionados con la utilización de micro-sondas neuronales, entre los cuales cabe destacar: la necesidad de reducir las dimensiones (tamaño) de la micro-sonda neuronal para permitirle alcanzar determinadas neuronas de la manera más precisa posible; la necesidad de estimular y registrar señales neuronales de forma simultánea y de insertar un gran número de áreas de contacto cuidadosamente distribuidas en volúmenes pequeños; la necesidad de que la micro-sonda tenga una huella lo más pequeña posible para que sea suave y flexible, a fin de no dañar los tejidos neuronales. Además, el uso de materiales metálicos para la formación, al menos en parte, de los microelectrodos de las micro-sondas neuronales impiden la utilización de estas micro-sondas en los sistemas de resonancia magnética. Estos mismos materiales metálicos también presentan el inconveniente de tener unas ratios señal/ruido demasiado bajas. También juega un papel importante la biocompatibilidad de las micro-sondas neuronales de cara a minimizar el rechazo al cuerpo extraño en la determinación de la funcionalidad a largo plazo de micro-sondas neuronales tras su implantación. Asimismo, los grupos de investigación que investigan tecnologías de micro-sondas neuronales se enfrentan a retos de otro tipo, entre los que se incluye el tener que utilizar procedimientos de fabricación no convencionales y no estándar que comportan un bajo rendimiento y un coste elevado. Por otra parte, en los últimos años se ha sido testigo de grandes avances en la investigación sobre el grafeno, que es un material conductor bidimensional y es el primer material conocido dotado de una distribución cristalina bidimensional. Puede adoptar la forma de una lámina de carbono de un átomo de grosor que combina de modo único las siguientes propiedades: grosor mínimo, resistencia mecánica, dureza, rigidez, elasticidad, conductividad electrónica y térmica excepcionalmente altas y biocompatibilidad. EXPLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCION Es un objetivo de la presente invención resolver o mitigar los problemas mencionados, relacionados con la biocompatibilidad, compatibilidad con resonancia magnética, y bajo ratio señal/ruido propios de las micro-sondas conocidas. En un primer aspecto, un procedimiento de fabricación de al menos una micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable, comprende las etapas de: - proporcionar un ensamblaje temporal, comprendiendo proporcionar una capa de un sustrato rígido y proporcionar una capa de un polímero soluble sobre dicha capa de sustrato rígido; - proporcionar al menos un ensamblaje de microelectrodo sobre dicho ensamblaje temporal, comprendiendo proporcionar una capa de un primer polímero y grabar en dicha capa de primer polímero al menos una abertura, y proporcionar una capa de un material conductor bidimensional sobre dicha capa de primer polímero y grabar en dicha capa de material conductor bidimensional al menos un microelectrodo provisto de al menos un área de contacto; - proporcionar un ensamblaje de acabado sobre dicho ensamblaje de microelectrodo; y - disolver dicho polímero soluble en una solución. El sustrato rígido puede ser una oblea de silicio, carburo de silicio o vidrio. Estos materiales se utilizan comúnmente en ensamblajes electrónicos por su buena resistencia, bajo coste y amplia disponibilidad. El sustrato rígido proporciona la superficie sólida necesaria sin la cual no sería posible añadir de manera uniforme las capas ultra finas de polímeros flexibles y de material conductor bidimensional. La superficie sólida es también necesaria para el grabado de alta definición de las aberturas en el polímero y el grabado de alta definición de los microelectrodos en el material conductor bidimensional. Una realización preferida de material conductor bidimensional es el grafeno. El grafeno tiene una estructura atómica de dos dimensiones y sólo tiene un grosor de un átomo. La capa de material conductor bidimensional puede ser obtenida por medio de deposición de vapor o por síntesis sobre carburo de silicio. Asimismo, películas poli-cristalinas uniformes de grafeno de gran superficie pueden producirse por deposición de vapor sobre hojas o películas de cobre. El proceso de transferencia puede requerir la adición de una capa protectora de poli-metil-metacrilato (PMMA) que no afectaría al procedimiento de fabricación de una micro-sonda neuronal flexible descrito aquí. Por otra parte, se ha demostrado que las capas de grafeno pueden ser producidas bien sobre la cara de silicio bien sobre la cara de carbono de una oblea de carburo de silicio por sublimación de átomos de silicio, dejando así una superficie grafitada que puede ser transferida para su uso. En algunas realizaciones, el material conductor bidimensional puede ser un metal, por ejemplo oro, titanio, aluminio, cromo o cobre. Proporcionar el ensamblaje de una capa de microelectrodo puede comprender proporcionar una capa de microelectrodos ultra finos grabados en el material conductor bidimensional y una capa de polímero aislante ultra fino con aberturas específicamente asignadas para proporcionar acceso a los áreas de contacto de microelectrodo y para delinear el perímetro exterior de la micro-sonda. Los microelectrodos y las aberturas pueden ser grabados utilizando polímeros foto resistentes positivos o negativos grabados por fotolitografía. Alternativamente, los microelectrodos y las aberturas pueden ser grabados por grabado iónico reactivo, en cuyo caso el polímero no necesita ser un polímero foto resistente. La adición de un segundo ensamblaje de microelectrodo en la parte superior del primer ensamblaje de microelectrodo proporciona dos capas distintas de microelectrodos. Si es necesario, estas capas de microelectrodos pueden ser conectadas internamente entre sí en uno o más puntos a base de grabar aberturas en la capa de polímero aislante presente entre ellas. El ensamblaje de acabado sirve para añadir una gama de características a la micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable, incluyendo la provisión de acceso a áreas de contacto de microelectrodo desde una o más caras exteriores de la micro-sonda, y la provisión de uno o más microcanales fluidicos para la administración de fármacos. Al final del proceso de fabricación, el polímero soluble se disuelve en una solución con el fin de desechar el sustrato rígido y para retener la micro-sonda. En una realización preferida, el procedimiento comprende la fabricación conjunta y simultánea de al menos dos de dichas micro-sondas neuronales flexibles biocompatibles e implantables. El mismo procedimiento puede ser utilizado para fabricar múltiples micro-sondas neuronales encima del mismo sustrato rígido, las cuales pueden formar matrices individuales de múltiples micro-sondas o pueden formar múltiples micro-sondas individuales independientes. En una realización del procedimiento, proporcionar un ensamblaje de acabado comprende proporcionar una capa de un segundo polímero sobre dicho al menos un ensamblaje de microelectrodo. El ensamblaje de acabado puede ser simplemente una capa final de polímero sin grabar. En esta realización, la micro-sonda resultante sólo presentará acceso a áreas de contacto de microelectrodos provistos en una o más capas desde únicamente una cara exterior de la micro-sonda. En otra realización del procedimiento, proporcionar un ensamblaje de acabado además comprende grabar al menos una abertura en la capa de segundo polímero. En esta realización, grabar aberturas en el polímero puede proporcionar el acceso necesario a los áreas de contacto de microelectrodo desde una segunda cara exterior de la microsonda. Alternativamente, estas aberturas también pueden delinear el perímetro externo de la micro-sonda o, en caso de adición de un microcanal para fluidos, estas aberturas pueden ser utilizadas para crear uno o más de dichos microcanales fluídicos en la micro-sonda. En otra realización del procedimiento, proporcionar un ensamblaje de acabado además comprende: - proporcionar por separado otra capa de dicho sustrato rígido; - proporcionar otra capa de dicho polímero soluble sobre dicha otra capa de sustrato rígido; - proporcionar una capa de un tercer polímero sobre dicha otra capa de polímero soluble; - unir dicha capa de tercer polímero a la capa de segundo polímero; y - disolver el polímero soluble de dicha otra capa de polímero soluble en una solución para desechar el sustrato rígido. Un microcanal fluídico para la administración neuronal de fármacos provisto de al menos una salida sobre una superficie de la micro-sonda puede ser incluido en la misma a base de proporcionar uno o más ensamblajes de microelectrodo y de grabar aberturas para formar el canal fluídico en las capas de los ensamblajes de microelectrodo. Para proporcionar una tapa para el microcanal fluídico, se proporciona por separado una capa de sustrato rígido, la cual es recubierta con una capa de polímero soluble. El sustrato rígido proporciona la plataforma sólida necesaria para proporcionar una capa uniforme de un tercer polímero sobre la capa de polímero soluble. Se puede entonces dar la vuelta a este ensamblaje independiente y se le puede unir a la capa superior de segundo polímero del ensamblaje de microelectrodo para cubrir y cerrar el o los microcanales para fluidos. A continuación, los materiales solubles tanto del primero como del segundo ensamblaje temporal se pueden disolver en la solución con el fin de desechar las dos capas de sustrato rígido. En una realización del procedimiento, proporcionar una capa de un tercer polímero además comprende grabar al menos una abertura en la misma. Grabar el tercer polímero puede servir para formar un microcanal, delinear los accesos a áreas de contacto y salidas de microcanal y también el perímetro de la micro-sonda neuronal. En algunas realizaciones, el primer polímero, el segundo polímero y el tercer polímero puede ser del mismo material polimérico. En algunas realizaciones, el polímero soluble puede ser ácido poli-acrílico (PAA) y la solución disolvente del mismo puede ser agua. La ventaja de usar estos materiales es la relativa seguridad y facilidad con la que el sustrato rígido presente en el primero y segundo ensamblaje temporal puede ser desechado sin dañar la micro-sonda neuronal. Otros ejemplos de polímeros solubles en agua incluye el ácido poliacrílico, el dextrano, el ácido polimetacrilico, la poliacrilamida, la polietilenimina, el alcohol polivinílico y el óxido de polietileno. Otro tipo de solución disolvente puede ser acetona. El procedimiento permite utilizar una amplia gama de polímeros para las diferentes capas aunque también permite que todas las capas de polímero sean del mismo material. Los polímeros pueden ser polímeros foto-resistentes positivos o negativos, en cuyo caso el grabado puede ser efectuado por fotolitografía. En una realización, uno o más de los polímeros puede ser SU-8 que es una fotoresina negativa. Otro polímero puede ser el polímero termoplástico COP, que es un copolímero epoxi de metacrilato de glicidilo y acrilato de etilo. Otros ejemplos de polímeros incluyen, entre otros: PET (tereftalato de polietileno), PEN (naftalato de polietileno), PMMA (metacrilato de poli-metilo), PC (policarbonato), PE (polietileno), o PS (poliestireno). En algunas realizaciones, uno de los polímeros puede ser Polilimida (PI), que puede ser tipo fotosensible y de tipo no fotosensible. En otras realizaciones, los polímeros pueden no ser polímeros fotosensibles, como por ejemplo parileno C, y pueden ser grabados por medio de iones reactivos (RIE). En un segundo aspecto, una micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable comprende al menos una capa de un material conductor bidimensional intercalada entre dos capas de material polimérico, comprendiendo dicha capa de material conductor bidimensional al menos un microelectrodo provisto de al menos un área de contacto, de manera que al menos una de dichas dos capas de material polimérico comprende al menos una abertura para acceder a dicho área de contacto de microelectrodo desde al menos una cara exterior de la micro-sonda. La micro-sonda neuronal comprende dos materiales clave, el material conductor bidimensional, preferentemente de grafeno, y la capa aislante, preferentemente de polímero SU-8. Ambos materiales se pueden proporcionar en capas ultrafinas. Son fuertes, flexibles, compatibles para su uso en sistemas de resonancia magnética, biocompatibles, y tienen un ratio elevado de señal/ruido. La micro-sonda neuronal puede comprender una o más capas de microelectrodos, cada una con uno o más áreas de contacto de contacto sobre una o más superficies de la micro-sonda. Por lo tanto, la micro-sonda neuronal biocompatible flexible e implantable puede ser empleada en una amplia gama de aplicaciones bio-neuronales, incluyendo la implantación in-vivo a corto o largo plazo, para la estimulación y la detección simultáneas y precisas de señales neuronales entre dos o más microelectrodos, o la detección precisa multi-neuronal situadas sobre uno o más lados de la misma micro-sonda neuronal. La micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable es también compatible con sistemas de resonancia magnética, ya que puede ser utilizada dentro de los mismos por tener electrodos no metálicos. La micro-sonda puede ser clasificada como "condicional a resonancia magnética", que se define como un dispositivo o implante que puede contener componentes magnéticos, conductores o reactivos a radio frecuencias, que son seguros para funcionar en la proximidad del sistema de resonancia magnética. En consecuencia, dichas micro-sondas neuronales se pueden conectar a la instrumentación y la electrónica de control utilizando conectores de "fuerza de inserción cero" (ZIF) para circuitos integrados y cables compatibles con resonancia magnética. En una realización de la micro-sonda neuronal biocompatible flexible e implantable, la capa de material conductor bidimensional comprende al menos dos microelectrodos. Un mínimo de dos microelectrodos es necesario para estimular las neuronas. Una micro-sonda neuronal con al menos dos microelectrodos puede estimular y detectar las señales neuronales y ofrecer mediciones más precisas y control ajustado. En una realización, la micro-sonda comprende al menos dos capas del material conductor bidimensional, cada una de las cuales a su vez comprende al menos un microelectrodo. La capacidad para empacar múltiples microelectrodos dentro de un área de superficie o volumen pequeños ofrece mediciones más precisas porque, de otro modo, es difícil identificar específicamente la ubicación de neuronas específicas. La micro-sonda puede comprender dos o más capas de microelectrodos con múltiples electrodos por capa. En otra realización de la micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable, cada capa de material polimérico comprenden al menos una abertura para acceder al área de contacto de microelectrodo desde al menos dos caras exteriores de la micro-sonda. De este modo, la micro-sonda se puede utilizar para estimular las neuronas y detectar las señales neuronales sobre dos o más caras de la misma micro-sonda, con el fin de aumentar el número de puntos de medición dentro de una pequeña zona con mayor precisión y exactitud en la investigación, medición y control neuronales. En una realización preferida de la micro-sonda, el material conductor bidimensional es grafeno. Como se ha explicado, el grafeno es una capa con un grosor de un solo átomo de carbono que combina un grosor mínimo con una alta resistencia mecánica, elevadas conductividades térmicas y eléctricas, y una flexibilidad tal que se puede enrollar alrededor de tejidos delicados. También es biocompatible y no provoca reacciones biológicas adversas cuando se implanta en tejido vivo humano o animal. El grafeno también es compatible con resonancia magnética, ya que no causa reacciones de interferencia o adversas cuando se emplea en un dispositivo de captación de imágenes por resonancia magnética. Esto es particularmente útil para su uso con pacientes con micro-sondas neuronales implantadas a largo plazo. Por otra parte, los microelectrodos de grafeno tienen una elevada relación señal/ruido ya que casi no generan ningún ruido intrínseco, lo cual les permite detectar las débiles señales de comunicación celular que generalmente están por debajo de unos pocos cientos de micro-voltios. En otra realización preferida de la micro-sonda, el material polimérico es SU-8. El SU-8 es un polímero muy viscoso que se puede extender con un espesor que varía desde menos de 1 micrómetro hasta más de 300 micrómetros, y aún así ser procesado con fotolitografía estándar mediante la cual puede ser grabado en alta resolución. También es biocompatible y compatible con sistemas de resonancia magnética. En otra realización, la micro-sonda comprende al menos un microcanal para la aplicación de fármacos neuronales, permitiendo así realizar simultáneamente estimulación neuronal, registro de señales y administración de fármacos al cerebro. Otros objetos adicionales, ventajas y características de realizaciones de la invención se harán evidentes para un experto en la materia de lo expuesto en la descripción, o pueden aprenderse mediante la práctica de la invención.

En la figura 3(h) se representa por separado una capa de un sustrato rígido 305, por ejemplo una oblea de silicio, carburo de silicio o vidrio. En la figura 3(i) se representa una capa de un polímero soluble 315, ácido poliacrílico (PAA), provista sobre esta capa de sustrato rígido 305. El conjunto formado por la capa de sustrato rígido y la capa de polímero soluble se denominará ensamblaje temporal 385.

En la figura 3(k) se ilustra la unión de la capa de tercer polímero 375 con el segundo polímero provisto sobre el ensamblaje de microelectrodo 390. En esta realización, la capa de segundo polímero 370, la capa de tercer polímero 375 y el ensamblaje temporal 385 forman conjuntamente un ensamblaje de acabado 395. La figura 3(k) también ilustra la inmersión de los dos ensamblajes temporales 380 y 385 en una solución 320, por ejemplo agua, para disolver las capas de polímero soluble 310 y 315 a fin de desechar los sustratos rígidos 300 y 305. La figura 3(l) representa una vista en sección transversal de una micro-sonda flexible, biocompatible e implantable y provista de una capa de microelectrodo 360 y al menos dos aberturas 356 y 357 para acceder a las áreas de contacto del microelectrodo desde una cara exterior de la micro-sonda. La micro-sonda también comprende un canal fluídico 355 con al menos dos salidas 358 y 359 sobre una superficie de la micro-sonda. La Figura 4 ilustra un primera diagrama de flujo en relación con una forma de realización del procedimiento de fabricación de una micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable. En la Fig. 4 se inicia el procedimiento en el punto de partida 400. En la etapa 410 se proporciona una capa de sustrato rígido, por ejemplo una oblea de vidrio o silicio. En la etapa 420 se proporciona una capa de polímero soluble, por ejemplo ácido poli-acrílico (PAA), sobre la capa de sustrato rígido. El conjunto de la capa de sustrato rígido y la capa de polímero soluble se denomina ensamblaje temporal. En la etapa 430 se proporciona una capa de un primer polímero, por ejemplo SU-8, sobre el ensamblaje temporal. Esta capa de primer polímero puede ser grabada mediante fotolitografía o por medio de iones reactivos (RIE) para formar una o más aberturas. Dichas aberturas pueden proporcionar acceso de contacto entre el exterior de la micro-sonda y las áreas de contacto de microelectrodo. Otra abertura puede definir parcialmente un canal de fluido o una entrada o salida asociada al canal de fluido. No obstante, otra abertura puede también delinear el perímetro exterior de la micro-sonda flexible. En la etapa 440 se puede proporcionar una capa de un material conductor bidimensional, por ejemplo grafeno, sobre la capa de primer polímero. El conjunto de la capa de primer polímero y la capa de material conductor bidimensional se denomina ensamblaje de microelectrodo. La capa de material conductor bidimensional puede ser grabada mediante fotolitografía o por medio de iones reactivos (RIE) para formar uno o más microelectrodos en la propia capa de material conductor bidimensional. En la etapa 450 el procedimiento permite, si es necesario, la adición de un ensamblaje adicional de microelectrodo a base de repetir las etapas 430 y 440. Proporcionar un ensamblaje adicional de microelectrodo resulta en una segunda capa de uno o más microelectrodos. Además, si es necesario se puede proporcionar acceso de contacto entre dos microelectrodos sobre dos capas diferentes a base de grabar aberturas en el primer polímero si se repite la etapa 430. Al llegar a la etapa 450, aún se puede añadir otro ensamblaje de microelectrodo para formar una micro-sonda con tres capas de uno o más microelectrodos. Siguiendo adelante, las etapas 460 y 480 se dirigen a proporcionar un ensamblaje de acabado. En la etapa 460 se añade una capa de un segundo polímero a la capa más superior del ensamblaje de microelectrodo. Si es necesario se pueden grabar unas aberturas en la capa de segundo polímero mediante fotolitografía o por medio de iones reactivos. Dichas aberturas pueden proporcionar acceso de contacto entre una cara exterior de la micro-sonda y las áreas de contacto de microelectrodos. Otra abertura puede definir parcialmente un microcanal de fluido o una entrada o salida asociada a dicho microcanal de fluido. No obstante, otra abertura puede delinear también el perímetro exterior de la micro-sonda flexible. En la etapa 470, en algunas realizaciones puede ser un requisito disponer de un microcanal de fluido y entonces el procedimiento sigue en la etapa 480. En otras realizaciones puede no haber necesidad de un canal de fluido, en cuyo caso el procedimiento puede saltar directamente a la etapa 490. En la etapa 480, el ensamblaje se une a un ensamblaje de cubierta obtenido en la salida del diagrama de flujo de la figura 5. El ensamblado de cubierta proporciona una cubierta para el microcanal fluídico. En la etapa 490, el o los sustratos rígidos se desechan disolviendo el polímero soluble, por ejemplo ácido poliacrílico, en una solución, por ejemplo agua. En la etapa 495 finaliza el procedimiento. La figura 5 ilustra un segundo diagrama de flujo en relación con el procedimiento de fabricación de una micro-sonda neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable. En la etapa 500 se inicia el procedimiento para proporcionar el mencionado ensamblaje de cubierta. En la etapa 510 se proporciona una capa separada de sustrato rígido, por ejemplo una oblea de vidrio o silicio. En la etapa 520 se proporciona una capa separada de polímero soluble, por ejemplo ácido poli-acrílico (PAA), sobre la capa separada de sustrato rígido. En la etapa 530 se proporciona una capa de un primer polímero, por ejemplo SU-8, sobre el ensamblaje temporal. Esta capa de primer polímero puede ser grabada mediante fotolitografía o por medio de iones reactivos (RIE) para formar una o más aberturas. Dichas aberturas pueden proporcionar acceso de contacto entre el exterior de la micro-sonda y las áreas de contacto de microelectrodos. Otra abertura puede definir parcialmente un canal de fluido o una entrada o salida asociada a dicho canal de fluido. No obstante, otra abertura puede delinear también el perímetro exterior de la micro-sonda flexible. En la etapa 540 finaliza el procedimiento. La Figura 6 ilustra una sola micro-sonda 600 neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable que comprende 10 microelectrodos 610 en una capa. Los microelectrodos y sus áreas de contacto de contacto 651 y 652 están grabados en el material conductor bidimensional. El perímetro exterior 640 de la micro-sonda se delinea a base de grabar el polímero. La Figura 7 ilustra dos micro-sondas 700 y 710 neuronales flexibles, biocompatibles e implantables, que comprenden cada una 4 microelectrodos 720 en una capa. Los microelectrodos y sus áreas de contacto de contacto 751 y 752 están grabados en el material conductor bidimensional. Las micro-sondas se sitúan encima de un ensamblaje temporal 730 que comprende un sustrato rígido, como una oblea de silicio. El perímetro exterior 740 de la micro-sonda se delinea a base de grabar el polímero. La Figura 8 ilustra una matriz de veintiséis micro-sondas 800 y 801, neuronales flexibles biocompatibles e implantables, dispuestas sobre un ensamblaje temporal 830 que comprende un sustrato rígido, como una oblea de silicio. Las figuras 9 (a) y (b) representan una micro-sonda 910 neuronal flexible, biocompatible e implantable, provista de un microcanal fluídico 960. La figura 9 (a) ilustra una sección transversal de una micro-sonda neuronal 910 provista del microcanal fluídico 960 y de una entrada 930 y unas salidas 940 y 950 para el fluido. La Figura 9 (b) ilustra la misma micro-sonda 910 visto desde fuera con las salidas de fluido 940 y 950 visibles. Aunque en la presente memoria sólo se han representado y descrito realizaciones particulares de la invención, el experto en la materia sabrá introducir modificaciones y sustituir unas características técnicas por otras equivalentes, dependiendo de los requisitos de cada caso, sin separarse del ámbito de protección definido por las reivindicaciones adjuntas.

Für den Betrieb der Kunden-/Erzeugungsanlage am Mittelspannungsnetz ist die Absenkung des Tonfrequenzpegels durch die jeweilige Fachabteilung bei der SVS bereits in der Planungsphase zu prüfen. Gleiches gilt für unzulässig hohe Störspannungen. Falls Betriebsmittel der Kunden-/Erzeugungsanlage den Betrieb der SVS-Rundsteueranlagen unzulässig hoch beeinträchtigen, so sind vom Betreiber der Kunden-/Erzeugungsanlagen Maßnahmen zur Beseitigung der Beeinträchtigung zu treffen, auch wenn die Beeinträchtigungen zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt festgestellt werden. In verbundenen Mittelspannungsnetzen treten sowohl Rundsteuerfrequenzen der SVS wie auch der Vorlieferanten auf. In der nachfolgenden Übersicht sind die örtlich verwendeten Rundsteuerfrequenzen für das Netz der SVS aufgeführt. | Ort | Frequenz SVS | |---|---| | Villingen | 210 | | Schwenningen | 175 | | Weilersbach | 210 | | Herzogenweiler | 210 | | Marbach | 210 | | Pfaffenweiler | 210 | | Obereschach | 210 | | Rietheim | 210 | | Tannheim | - | | Mühlhausen | 175 | | Weigheim | 175 | 3 Übergabestation 3.1 Baulicher Teil 3.1.1 Allgemeines Elektrische Betriebsräume innerhalb von besonderen Gebäuden (hierzu zählen z. B. Hochhäuser, Großbauten, Großgaragen, Wohnhäuser etc.) sind nach der Landesbauordnung Baden-Württemberg (LBO), insbesondere nach der Verordnung des Innenministeriums über elektrische Betriebsräume (EltBauVO) zu errichten. Fabrikfertige Stationen sind gemäß DIN EN 62271-202 (VDE 0671-202) zu errichten. Es gelten folgende Richtwerte: IAC AB 16 kA/1 s für Nennspannung Un=20 kV. Die Auswahl der Gehäuseklasse erfolgt nach der (mittleren) Umgebungstemperatur am Aufstellungsort und nach dem Lastfaktor des Transformators. Für einen vorgegebenen Bemessungswert der Gehäuseklasse ist der zulässige Lastfaktor des Transformators von der Umgebungstemperatur der Station am Standort abhängig. Für alle anderen Stationen ist insbesondere die DIN VDE 0101 (01/2000) zu beachten. 3.1.2 Einzelheiten zur baulichen Ausführung Zur Einführung der Netzanschlusskabel in das Gebäude sind bauseitig Wanddurchlässe in ausreichender Zahl vorzusehen. Bei der SVS werden zur zuverlässigen Abdichtung der Wanddurchlässe vorzugsweise Kabeldurchführungssysteme der Firma Hauff System HSI 150 mit Bajonettaufnahme/Bajonettverschluss (=150 mm) oder gleichwertig verwendet. 3.2 Elektrischer Teil 3.2.1 Allgemeines Bei der SVS gelten folgende Kennwerte für Betriebsmittel am Mittelspannungsnetz: Bemessungsspannung Ur=24 kV / Netznennspannung Un=20 kV Bemessungskurzzeitstrom lk für t=1 s 16 kA 3.2.2 Schutz gegen Störlichtbögen Für Mittelspannungsschaltanlagen im Netzgebiet der SVS gelten folgende Richtwerte hinsichtlich der Störlichtbogenqualifikation IAC (Internal Arc Classification): Bei Wandaufstellung: IAC A FL 16kA/1 s für Nennspannung Un=20 kV Bei freier Raumaufstellung: IAC A FRL 16kA/1 s für Nennspannung Un=20 kV Zugänglichkeitsgrad (code) A Anlage in abgeschlossener Betriebsstätte (nur befugtes Personal) -F Vorderseite (front) -L Seitenwände (lateral) -R Rückseite (rear) 3.2.3 Überspannungsableiter Die Bereitstellung, der Einbau und der Unterhalt von Überspannungsableitern erfolgt, wenn erforderlich, durch die SVS im Auftrag und zu Lasten des Anschlussnehmers. Die Überspannungsableiter bleiben im Eigentum des Anschlussnehmers. Zum Einsatz kommen üblicherweise 10 kA-Metalloxidableiter (MO-Ableiter). 3.2.4 Schaltanlage 184.108.40.206 Schaltung und Aufbau Anschlussbeispiele von Kundenanlagen sind in den Erläuterungen des Netzbetreibers im Anhang C dargestellt. 220.127.116.11 Ausführung Maßnahmen gegen unbefugtes Betätigen: Als Maßnahme gegen unbefugtes Betätigen der Schalter und Öffnen der Türen für die im Verfügungsbereich der SVS stehenden Schaltfelder (hierzu zählen z. B. Ringkabelfelder/Eingangsfelder/Messfelder) ist der Einbau von Profilzylindern (PZ) oder alternativ Vorhängeschlössern vorzusehen. Die erforderlichen Profilzylinder bzw. Vorhängeschlösser werden durch die SVS beigestellt. Die Erdschlusserfassungseinrichtung steht im Eigentum und Unterhalt des Anschlussnehmers. Sie ist regelmäßig auf Funktionsfähigkeit zu überprüfen. Spannungsprüfsystem: Es ist ein kapazitives Spannungsprüfsystem für hochohmige Systeme (HR) nach DIN EN 61243-5 zur einpoligen kapazitiven Ankopplung (höchste Ansprechbedingungen Utmax=90 V und ltmax= 2,5 µA bei f=50 Hz; Schutzart IP 54; ohne Eigen-versorgung) vorzusehen. Kurzschlussanzeiger: Der Einbau von Kurzschlussanzeiger ist nach Maßgabe der SVS vorzusehen (siehe hierzu Anschlussbeispiele im Anhang C der Erläuterungen des Netzbetreibers): Rücksetzzeit 4 h; Ansprechwert 400 A bis 1000 A (einstellbar); mit Fernmeldekontakt Erdschlusserfassung: Ausschließlich für Übergabestationen mit Anschluss eines kundeneigenen Mittelspannungskabelabgangs oder mehrerer kundeneigener Kabelabgänge zu Unterstationen wird der Einbau einer Erdschlusserfassungs-Einrichtung zu Lasten des Anschlussnehmers gemäß SVS-Standard erforderlich. Für die Erfassung der hierfür erforderlichen Messgrößen (Spannung U und Strom l) ist der Einbau folgender Komponenten vorzusehen: 1 Satz (3 Stück) einpolig, isolierte Spannungswandler 1 Satz (3 Stück) Stützer-Stromwandler, oder entsprechend dimensionierte Kabelumbauwandler Für die Verarbeitung der Messgrößen ist ein Erdschlusswischer-Relais elektronischer Bauart inklusive Stromversorgungs- und Signalisierungseinrichtung einzubauen. 3.2.5 Betriebsmittel 18.104.22.168 Schaltgeräte Eingangsschalter (Ringkabelfelder des Netzbetreibers): Lasttrennschalter als Eingangsschalter müssen für einen Bemessungs-Betriebsstrom lr von mindestens 630 A ausgelegt sein; der Bemessungs-Stoßstrom lp muss den Kurzschlussanforderungen gemäß Kapitel 3.2.4 genügen. Der erforderliche Bemessungs-Kurzschlusseinschaltstrom lma muss gleich dem Bemessungs-Stoßstrom lp sein. Leistungsschalter als Eingangsschalter müssen für einen Bemessungs-Betriebsstrom lr von mindestens 630 A ausgelegt sein. Ihr Bemessungs-Kurzschlussausschaltstrom lsc muss mindestens so groß wie der Bemessungs-Kurzzeitstrom lk nach Kapitel 3.2.4 sein. Leistungsschalter sind als Eingangsschalter in folgenden Fällen erforderlich: * wenn die Bedingungen für die Kurzschlussbeanspruchung mit einem Lasttrennschalter nicht eingehalten werden können oder * wenn wegen der besonderen Betriebsbedingungen des Anschlussnehmers für Fehler auf den einspeisenden Mittelspannungsleitungen eine selektive Fehlerabschaltung erforderlich ist. Hierzu gehören ebenfalls entsprechende Schutzeinrichtungen. Übergabeschalter Die Übergabe ist in der Regel ein Lasttrennschalter. Der Lasttrennschalter muss den oben für den Eingangsschalter als Lasttrennschalter angegebenen Bedingungen genügen. Bei Kundenanlagen mit nur einem Transformator ist der Übergabeschalter gleichzeitig Schaltgerät für den Transformator. Er erhält allpolige Schnellauslösung durch am Schalter angebaute HH-Sicherungen. Bei Kundenanlagen mit mehreren Transformator- oder Abgangsfeldern kann als Übergabeschalter ebenfalls ein Lasttrennschalter Verwendung finden. Leistungsschalter als Übergabeschalter sind einzubauen, wenn es die besonderen Bedingungen des Netzes und/oder die Betriebsbedingungen des Anschlussnehmers (z. B. Selektivitätsforderungen) erforderlich machen. Der Leistungsschalter muss den oben für den Eingangsschalter als Leistungsschalter angegebenen Bedingungen genügen und entsprechende Schutzeinrichtungen erhalten. Ab einer installierten Trafonennleistung größer 1 200 kVA wird als Übergabeschalter ein Leistungsschalter mit UMZ-Schutz erforderlich. Unter besonderen Bedingungen kann auch dem Einbau eines Leistungstrennschalters mit UMZ-Schutz zugestimmt werden. Dies ist im Bedarfsfall mit der SVS abzustimmen. Erdungs- und Kurzschließvorrichtungen: Alle Eingangsschaltfelder (Ringkabelfelder) im Verfügungsbereich der SVS sind mit dreipoligen Erdungsschaltern mit Schnelleinschaltung auszustatten. Diese sollen an den Eingangslasttrennschalter oder bei Eingangsleitungsschaltern an den notwendigen Eingangstrennschalter angebaut werden und von außen bei geschlossener Zellentür bedienbar sein. Als Erdungsfestpunkte sind T-Phasenanschlussbolzen sowie Erdanschlussbolzen mit einem Durchmesser von 25 mm vorzusehen. In den Messfeldern sind ebenfalls Erdungspunkte vorzusehen. Eine Möglichkeit zum Erden ist für jeden Sammelschienenabschnitt vorzusehen. Bei SF6-isolierten Schaltanlagen kann in Absprache mit der SVS davon abgewichen werden. 22.214.171.124 Transformatoren Für jeden kundenseitigen Transformator ist mindestens eine Hochspannungs-Lastschalter-Sicherungs-Kombination gemäß DIN VDE 0671 Teil 105 vorzusehen. Die jeweils maximal zugelassene Trafoleistung beträgt 1 250 kVA (HH-Sicherung max. ln = 63 A) bei Absicherung mit einer Hochspannungs-Lastschalter-Sicherungs-Kombination. Bei größeren Trafoleistungen ist jeweils ein Leistungsschalter mit UMZ-Schutz vorzusehen. Davon kann abgewichen werden, wenn als Übergabeschalter ein Leistungsschalter mit UMZ-Schutz eingebaut ist. Unter besonderen Bedingungen kann auch dem Einbau eines Leistungstrennschalters mit UMZ-Schutz zugestimmt werden. Dies ist im Bedarfsfall mit der SVS abzustimmen. Im Netzgebiet der SVS werden üblicherweise Transformatoren der Schaltgruppe Dyn 5 mit OS-seitigen Anzapfungen von 3 Stufen +/- 4 % eingesetzt. Im Störungsfall können ggf. Transformatoren durch die SVS leihweise zur Verfügung gestellt werden. 3.2.6 Sternpunktbehandlung Im Netzgebiet der SVS kommt das Prinzip der Erdschlusskompensation mittels Erdschlusslöschspule zur Anwendung. 3.2.7 Sekundärtechnik 126.96.36.199 Hilfsenergieversorgung Vorzugsweise ist eine Hilfsenergieversorgung mit einer Nennspannung Un 60 VDC vorzusehen. 188.8.131.52 Schutzeinrichtungen Die maximale Abschaltzeit und die Schutzrelaiseinstellungen werden durch die SVS festgelegt. Die Inbetriebnahme der Schutzeinrichtung ist gemeinsam mit der SVS rechtzeitig abzustimmen und durchzuführen. Zur Durchführung der Funktionsprüfung der Schutzeinrichtungen ist als Schnittstelle eine Prüfklemmleiste gemäß dem Anschlussschema erforderlich. Die Möglichkeit zum Kurzschließen des Stromwandlers muss gegeben sein. Schutzeinrichtung AUS-Kontakt Stromeingänge Spannungseingänge Legende: feste Brücke Schaltbrücke Messbuchse vom Kuppelschalter 3.2.8 Erdungsanlage Bei Trafostationen ist die Niederspannungs-Betriebserde mit der Hochspannungs-Schutzerde zusammenzuschließen. Hierbei darf die Erdungsspannung UE nicht höher als 150 V bzw. die zulässige Berührungsspannung UTp nicht höher als 75 V sein, wobei der Neutralleiter an mehreren Stellen geerdet sein muss. Dieses gilt als erfüllt, wenn um die Trafostation eine Potenzialsteuerung mit zwei Ringen (0,2 m und 1,2 m Abstand von der Außenwand, ca. 0,2 m und 0,5 m Tiefe) angebracht ist. Übersteigt dabei außerhalb eines globalen Erdungssystems UE bei eingebauter Potentialsteuerung den Wert 150 V, so sind geeignete Maßnahmen zu treffen, damit die zulässige Berührungsspannung UTp ≤ 75 V eingehalten wird. UTp ≤ 75 V ist dann messtechnisch nachzuweisen. Maßgebend für die Bemessung der Erdungsanlage ist der Erdschlussstrom lrest. Gemäß DIN VDE 0228 Teil 2 Bild 1 „Richtwerte der Löschgrenze für Erdschluss-Reststrom bzw. Erdschlussstrom", sollte dieser möglichst 60 A nicht überschreiten. Dieser Wert soll einheitlich, unabhängig von der Größe der jeweiligen Einzelnetze, für die Bemessung der Erdungsanlagen zugrunde gelegt werden. Die SVS führt in der Regel mit dem Mittelspannungskabel ein zusätzliches Erdseil zur Verbesserung der Erdungsverhältnisse im Gesamtnetz. Dieses Erdseil wird mit der Gebäudeerde verbunden. Dieser Anschluss ist bei der Bemessung der kundeneigenen Erdungsanlage sowie bei der Dimensionierung der Gebäude-Kabeleinführungen zu berücksichtigen. 3.2.9 Zubehör Die erforderliche kurzschlussfeste Erdungs- und Kurzschließgarnitur, bestehend aus einem hochflexiblen Kupferseil von 95 mm² und Erdungsstange, muss DIN VDE 0683 Teil 1 entsprechen. Die Anzahl an Erdungs- und Kurzschließgarnituren richtet sich nach der Anlagenkonfiguration.

Die technischen Mindestanforderungen des Netzbetreibers an die Messeinrichtungen (Zähler, Zusatzeinrichtungen, Messwandler sowie Kommunikationseinrichtungen und Steuergeräte) sind für niederspannungsseitige Messungen in den Erläuterungen TAB 2007 respektive für mittelspannungsseitige Messungen nach Kap. 4.6 vorgegeben. 4.2 Spannungsebene der Messung Niederspannungsseitige Messeinrichtungen sind bis zu einer installierten Summen-Trafonennleistung von 630 kVA zulässig. Mittelspannungsseitige Messeinrichtungen sind ab einer installierten Summen-Trafonennleistung größer 630 kVA erforderlich. Bei der Festlegung des Messortes ist der geplante Endausbau zu berücksichtigen! Bei mittelspannungsseitiger Versorgung wird von der SVS eine Lastgangmessung gefordert. 4.3 Richtlinie für die Auslegung der Mittelspannungs-Messeinrichtung 4.3.1 Wandlerbestimmung Die Auslegung der Wandler wird je nach Leistung und der Anlagenart von der für das Zählerwesen zuständigen Abteilung festgelegt. Dabei sind folgende Genauigkeitsklassen vorzusehen: Klasse 0,5 (Spannungswandler) bzw. Klasse 0,5 s (Stromwandler). 4.3.2 Einbau der Stromwandler Die Sammelschienen sind im Messfeld so zu verlegen, dass der Einbau von drei Stromwandlern nebeneinander und möglichst im Zuge des Schienenverlaufs erfolgen kann. Die Tragschienen und Befestigungselemente für Wandler müssen auf der Tragkonstruktion ohne Nacharbeiten verschiebbar sein (C-Profile mit Hammerkopfschrauben). Somit kann die gleiche Tragkonstruktion für alle Wandlertypen verwendet werden. Die Primärklemme P 1 (K) zeigt stets in die Richtung des VNB (Verteilnetzbetreiber). Die Stromwandler sind so anzuordnen, dass die Primär- und Sekundärklemmen auch nach der Montage der kompletten Schaltanlage gut zugänglich sind. Alle Wandlergehäuse sind gemäß DIN VDE 0101 zu erden. Die Stromwandler werden von der SVS zum Einbau beigestellt und von dem Anlagenerrichter eingebaut und primärseitig angeschlossen. Die Wandler bleiben Eigentum des Netzbetreibers. 4.3.3 Einbau der Spannungswandler Für die Auslegung der Tragkonstruktion und den Einbau gelten die gleichen Richtlinien wie unter Punkt 4.6.2 Wichtig: Der primärseitige Anschluss der Spannungswandler erfolgt generell vor den Stromwandlern bzw. auf der P1/K Seite aus Richtung VNB. 4.3.4 Ausführung des Messfeldes Das Messfeld ist in luftisolierter Ausführung zu erstellen, um die entsprechenden Messwandler aufzunehmen. Hierbei ist DIN VDE 0101 bzw. DIN VDE 0671 anzuwenden. 4.3.5 Sekundärleitung der Stromwandler Die Sekundärleitungen der Messwandler sind von deren Klemmen (ununterbrochen verlegt) bis zum Zählereinbauort zu führen. Die Sekundärleitungen sind in H05VVC4V5-K (NYSLYCYÖ-J) auszuführen. 10 Bemerkung: Um die Messgenauigkeit der Zählung sicherzustellen, muss die Bürdenleistung der Wandler eingehalten werden. In Sonderfällen sind die Leitungsquerschnitte von der SVS neu zu berechnen. Die Messleitungen sind über die gesamte Länge in einem Schutzrohr oder Leitungsführungskanal zu verlegen. Die Messleitungen werden vom Anlagenerrichter beigestellt und verlegt. Der Anschluss der Messleitungen erfolgt in der Regel durch die SVS. Wird der Anschluss durch den Anlagenerrichter ausgeführt, muss vor der Inbetriebnahme eine Prüfung durch die SVS erfolgen. 4.3.6 Sekundärleitung der Spannungswandler Die Sekundärleitungen der Messwandler sind von deren Klemmen bzw. Sicherungen ungeschnitten (d.h. ununterbrochen verlegt) bis zum Zählereinbauort zu führen. Die Sekundärleitungen sind in H05VVC4V5-K (NYSLYCYÖ-J) auszuführen. Nicht abgesicherte Spannungswandlerleitungen sind nach DIN VDE 0100-520/3/ zu verlegen. 4.3.7 Absicherung Messung Die Sicherungen werden vom Anlagenerrichter zur Verfügung gestellt. Die Messeinrichtung wird über ein dreipoliges Sicherungselement NEOZED D01/10 A oder drei einpolige LS-Schalter, Nennstrom 10 A, Kurzschlussfestigkeit 25 kA, Auslösecharakteristik B abgesichert. 4.3.8 Klemmleisten Die Klemmleiste wird vom Anlagenerrichter zur Verfügung gestellt. Es sind für alle Klemmen Federzugklemmen oder Schraubklemmen einzusetzen. An den Federzugklemmen werden die Leiter ohne Aderendhülsen angeklemmt (Herstellerangaben beachten). 184.108.40.206 Prüfklemme Die Prüfklemme ist in Bild „Prüfklemmen und Sicherungen" im Anhang dargestellt. Die Klemmen müssen auf den entsprechenden Leiterquerschnitt abgestimmt werden. Bei Federzugklemmen sind nicht längstrennbare Kurzschließklemmen zu verwenden. Die Kurzschließbrücken sind farbig abgesetzt auszuliefern. Nach jeder zweiten Klemme ist eine Trennplatte einzusetzen. 220.127.116.11 Steuerklemme Die Steuerklemme ist in der Anlage 1 dargestellt. Bei Federzugklemmen sind längstrennbare Klemmen zu verwenden. 11 4.3.9 Zählerschrank Der Zählerschrank wird vom Anlagenerrichter zur Verfügung gestellt. Der Montageplatz des Zählerschrankes ist im Einvernehmen mit der SVS festzulegen und muss vor Erschütterungen, Schmutz, Feuchtigkeit und gegen mechanische Beschädigungen geschützt und ausreichend beleuchtet sein. Das Leergehäuse ist vom Anlagenerrichter zu montieren. Der Zählerschrank ist in einer Höhe von 1,85 m zwischen Fußboden und Oberkante Schrank zu montieren. Der Zählerschrank muss in die am Einbauort vorgeschriebenen Schutzmaßnahmen mit einbezogen werden. Größe des Schrankes oder gleichwertig mit 3 Zählerplätzen 4.3.10 SVS als Messstellenbetreiber Die Zähler und alle dazugehörigen Zusatzgeräte werden vom Messstellenbetreiber beigestellt und unterhalten. Die Messeinrichtung wird von der SVS in Betrieb genommen. Kundeneigene Geräte können aus Gründen der Messgenauigkeit, Bürde und Messsicherheit nicht an den Sekundärmesskreis der Messeinrichtung angeschlossen werden. Die Weitergabe von Steuerimpulsen (kWh, tm, Tarifzeiten usw.) für kundeneigene Anforderungen ist jederzeit über Trennrelais als potentialfreier Kontakt möglich (zusätzlicher Messpreis). Die Umgebungstemperatur bei der Zähleranlage soll nicht unter ± 0 °C absinken und nicht über 40 °C ansteigen, um die Messgenauigkeit nicht zu beeinflussen. Folgende Genauigkeitsklassen sind vorzugsweise für die Zähler vorzusehen: Klasse 1 (Wirkenergie) bzw. Klasse 2 (Blindenergie). Mittelspannungsseitige Messungen werden bei der SVS unabhängig von der Leistung mit Lastgangzählern ausgerüstet. 4.3.11 Zählerfernauslesung (ZFA) Die Messung wird als Lastgangzählung mit Zählerfernauslesung (ZFA) per GSM eingebaut. Hierfür stellt der Anlagenerrichter in Absprache mit der SVS an der Zählstelle einen abgesicherten 230 V-Stromkreis kostenlos zur Verfügung. Bei schlechten Empfangsverhältnissen kann es erforderlich werden, die GSM-Antenne auch außerhalb der Messschrankes oder außerhalb des Gebäudes zu installieren. Der Kunde stellt erforderliche Kabelverlegewege und Montageorte zur Verfügung. 12 4.3.12 Plombierung Die Einbaustellen der gesamten Messeinrichtungen müssen so beschaffen sein, dass sie von der SVS sicher plombiert oder verschlossen werden können. 4.3.13 Inbetriebnahme Die Fertigstellung wird durch eine schriftliche Fertigmeldung angemeldet, danach wird durch die Abteilung Messtechnik die Messung eingebaut und in Betrieb genommen. 4.3.14 Lieferung der Wandler und Zubehör Transport- und Versandkosten, ebenso das Transportrisiko gehen immer zu Lasten des Auftraggebers.

ACTA DE SESSIÓ DEL PLE DE L'AJUNTAMENT Identificació de la sessió Número: 5/2019 Caràcter: extraordinari Data: 4 de juliol de 2019 Horari: de 21.00 a 21.55 h Lloc: saló de sessions de la casa consistorial Assistents David Rodríguez i González (ERC-AM)alcalde-president Rosó Barrera i Call (ERC-AM) Ramon Montaner i Viladrich (ERC- AM) Judit Gisbert i Ester (ERC-AM) Ramon Xandri i Solé (ERC-AM) Sara Alarcón i Postils (ERC-AM) Joan Parcerisa i Albacete (ERC-AM) Marc Barbens i Casals (JUNTS) Isabel Pérez i Martínez (JUNTS) Francesc Xavier Torres i Romero (JUNTS) Maria Pilar Viladrich i Massana (Alternativa per Solsona -CUP) Òscar Garcia i Companys (Alternativa per Solsona-CUP) Encarna Tarifa i Fernández (PSC-CP) Secretària actal.: Immaculada Jané i Viñals Desenvolupament de la sessió L'alcalde declara oberta la sessió per tractar dels assumptes següents inclosos en l'ordre del dia. 1. Aprovació de l' acta de la sessió de constitució del nou Ajuntament del dia 15 de juny de 2019 L'alcalde demana si cap membre de la corporació ha de formular alguna observació a l'acta de la sessió de constitució del nou Ajuntament del dia 15 de juny de 2019, que és l'única que es presenta a la consideració del Ple. No se'n produeix cap, i l'acta queda aprovada per unanimitat dels assistents. 2. Periodicitat de les sessions plenàries ordinàries A petició de l'alcaldia, la secretària llegeix la proposta que es presenta a la consideració del Ple, que diu així: «Atès que és necessari fixar els dies i les hores en què s'han de dur a terme les sessions ordinàries del Ple de l'Ajuntament, es proposa: Que l'Ajuntament en Ple tingui les seves sessions ordinàries, cada dos mesos, el darrer dijous de cada mes senar, començant a partir del proper mes de setembre, a les 21 hores. Donat cas que coincidís amb un dia festiu es passarà la convocatòria, especificant el dia i l'hora, amb tres dies d'antelació.» Tot seguit pren la paraula Maria Pilar Viladrich i explica que, pel nombre d'habitants de Solsona, la proposta que es presenta s'ajusta a la normativa però l'experiència demostra que cada dos mesos és un termini massa ampli ja que provoca ordres del dia de plens molt atapeïts. Alhora demana passar l'ordre del dia amb més dies d'antel·lació: dos dies hàbils sense comptar el dia de tramesa de la convocatòria i el dia de la celebració del ple. L'alcalde comenta que aquest compromís no el pot adoptar atès que en el moment de passar la convocatòria l'expedient ha d'estar totalment informat per posar a disposició dels regidors tota la documentació. L'actual termini de 48 hores que ha de complir l'Ajuntament ja és un termini molt just i no es pot comprometre a ampliar-lo. Tot seguit Encarna Tarifa demana que els plens no tinguin una durada de més de 3 hores, ja que sinó es fan excessivament llargs. Tot seguit es procedeix a la votació i la proposta presentada a la consideració del Ple s'aprova per unanimitat. 3. Constitució i retribució dels grups municipals A petició de l'alcaldia, la secretària llegeix la proposta que es presenta a la consideració del Ple, que diu així: «D'acord amb el que disposa l'article 73 de la Llei 7/1985, reguladora de les Bases de Règim Local; l'article 50 del Decret Legislatiu 2/2003, de 28 d'abril pel qual s'aprova el Text refós de la Llei Municipal i de Règim Local de Catalunya, i l'article 24 del Reial Decret 2568/1986, de 28 de novembre, pel qual s'aprova el Reglament d'Organització, Funcionament i règim jurídic de les administracions públiques, Es proposa al Ple l'adopció dels acords següents: Primer. Crear grups municipals de l'Ajuntament de Solsona, conforme la normativa esmentada. Segon. Determinar la quantitat de 150,00 euros per grup municipal i mes, i 75,00 euros per regidor que formi el grup municipal i per mes. Tercer. Ratificar els grups municipals que es presenten en Ple, que són: 1. Grup municipal d'Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya. Portaveu, Rosó Barrera i Call 2. Grup municipal de Junts per Solsona. Portaveu, Marc Barbens i Casals. 3. Grup municipal d'Alternativa per Solsona - CUP. Portaveu, Maria Pilar Viladrich i Masana. 4. Grup municipal del Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya-Candidatura de progrés (PSC-CP). Portaveu, Encarna Tarifa Fernández" Tot seguit es procedeix a la votació i la proposta presentada a la consideració del Ple s'aprova per unanimitat. 4. Nomenament dels membres de la Comissió especial de comptes A petició de l'alcaldia, la secretària llegeix la proposta que es presenta a la consideració del Ple, que diu així: « De conformitat amb els articles 116 de la Llei 7/1985, de 2 d'abril reguladora de les bases de règim local, l'article l'article 58 del Decret Legislatiu 2/2003, de 28 d'abril pel qual s'aprova el Text refós de la Llei Municipal i de Règim Local de Catalunya, és necessari nomenar la Comissió Especial de Comptes, per aquest motiu es proposa: Primer. Que la Comissió Especial de Comptes estigui integrada pels portaveus de tots els grup polítics i s'aplicarà el sistema de vot ponderat. Consegüentment, quedarà integrada per les persones següents: 1. Rosó Barrera i Call, portaveu del Grup municipal d'Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya. 2. Marc Barbens i Casals, portaveu del Grup municipal de Junts per Solsona. 3. Maria Pilar Viladrich i Masana, portaveu del Grup municipal d'Alternativa per Solsona - CUP. 4. Encarna Tarifa Fernández, portaveu del Grup municipal del Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya-Candidatura de progrés (PSC-CP). Segon. Que a les reunions hi assisteixi el regidor delegat d'hisenda, amb veu però sense vot." Tot seguit es procedeix a la votació i la proposta presentada a la consideració del Ple s'aprova per unanimitat. 5. Nomenament dels membres de la Comissió informativa A petició de l'alcaldia, la secretària llegeix la proposta que es presenta a la consideració del Ple, que diu així: «De conformitat amb l'article núm.1 de la Llei 11/1999, de 21 d'abril, que modifica la Llei 7/1985, de 2 d'abril, reguladora de les bases de règim local, és necessari nomenar una comissió que tingui per objecte l'estudi, informe o consulta dels assumptes que han de ser sotmesos a la consideració del Ple de l'Ajuntament i en la qual han de tenir representació tots els grups polítics que integren la corporació. Per aquest motiu, es proposa: Primer. Nomenar membres de la comissió informativa tots els portaveus dels grups municipals: 1. Rosó Barrera i Call, portaveu del Grup municipal d'Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya. 2. Marc Barbens i Casals, portaveu del Grup municipal de Junts per Solsona. 3. Maria Pilar Viladrich i Masana, portaveu del Grup municipal d'Alternativa per Solsona - CUP. 4. Encarna Tarifa Fernández, portaveu del Grup municipal del Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya-Candidatura de progrés (PSC-CP). Segon. Pel que fa a les votacions, aplicar el sistema de vot pondera» Tot seguit es procedeix a la votació i la proposta presentada a la consideració del Ple s'aprova per unanimitat. 6. Establiment del règim de dedicació dels membres de la corporació i de les seves retribucions i indemnitzacions A petició de l'alcaldia, la secretària llegeix la proposta que es presenta a la consideració del Ple, que diu així: «Pel que fa a les retribucions, dedicacions i indemnitzacions a alts càrrecs, i de conformitat amb el que es disposa en l'article 75 bis de la Llei 7/1985, de 2 d'abril, Reguladora de les Bases del Règim Local, i d'acord amb la Disposició addicional trentena cinquena de la Llei 6/2018, de 3 de juliol, de Pressupostos Generals de l'Estat per a l'any 2018, i l'increment addicional publicat en el Document de la Secretaria d'Estat de Pressupostos i Despeses, aprovat el 13/07/2018 i publicat el 27 de juliol de 2018, i l'acord del consell de Ministres del dia 21 de juny de 2019 pels qual s'aprova l'increment addicional del 0,25 % de les retribucions del personal al servei del sector públic, es proposa al Ple l'adopció dels acords següents: Assignació per assistència a sessions de la Junta de Govern Local: 157,50 € bruts/sessió per regidor que hi assisteixi sempre que no tingui dedicació exclusiva o parcial. La regidora Rosó Barrera i Call desenvoluparà el seu càrrec amb una dedicació del 70% de la jornada i la seva remuneració serà de 29.791,29 € bruts/any, amb catorze mensualitats i no rebrà cap indemnització per assistència a la Junta de Govern Local, ni als plens, ni a la comissió informativa ni a la comissió especial de comptes. El regidor Joan Parcerisa i Albacete desenvoluparà el seu càrrec amb una dedicació del 30% de la jornada i la seva remuneració serà de 12.767,70 € bruts/any, amb catorze mensualitats i no rebrà cap indemnització per assistència a la Junta de Govern Local, ni als plens, ni a la comissió informativa ni a la comissió especial de comptes. L'alcalde, David Rodríguez i González, desenvoluparà el seu càrrec, amb dedicació exclusiva i la seva remuneració serà de 47.817,69 € bruts/any, i no rebrà cap indemnització per assistència a la sessió de la Junta de Govern Local ni als plens, ni a la comissió informativa ni a la comissió especial de comptes. Codi Validació: 4S7HSM95MKK2HT3RC9TYCPNWZ | Verificació: http://solsona.eadministracio.cat/ Els portaveus dels grups municipals tindran una assignació per assistència a la sessions de la comissió informativa i comissió especial de comptes de 157,50 € bruts/sessió. Donat cas que algun regidor hagués d'assistir a una sessió de la comissió informativa o de la comissió especial de comptes, també rebrà la indemnització de 157,50 €/sessió. Totes les indemnitzacions, assignacions i retribucions detallades en els punts anteriors s'incrementaran anualment d'acord amb la variació de l'IPC, agafant com a referència l'import bruta excepció de les retribucions dels regidors amb dedicació exclusiva o parcial que la seva actuació estarà en funció del que reguli la normativa vigent. Les indemnitzacions per dietes i despeses de quilometratge seran les següents: - dieta de manutenció 15,00 € com a màxim, previ presentació del justificant, - quilometratge 0,19 €/Km. Per assistència als plens els regidors percebran la quantitat de 157,50 bruts/sessió que serà compatible amb qualsevol altra retribució, indemnització o assignació, excepte en els casos dels regidors que es disposin de dedicació exclusiva o parcial. Als regidors amb dedicació exclusiva o parcial les hi serà d'aplicació l'article 29 del pacte conveni de personal de l'Ajuntament de Solsona que regula els complements en cas de malaltia o accident. Els regidors que presideixin cerimònies de matrimonis civils rebran una assignació de 50,00 € bruts per cerimònia, excepte en els casos dels regidors que es disposin de dedicació exclusiva o parcial. Autoritzar i disposar la despesa amb càrrec a les partides 9120.10000 i 9120.23300 del vigent pressupost general.» Tot seguit pren la paraula Marc Barbens, portaveu de JUNTS, i comenta que les retribucions que es proposen les veu bé atès que es mantenen les que hi havia i sols s'ha aplicat l'actualització que pertoca. Però vol fer un prec pels regidors que tenen més dedicació, Rosó Barrera i Joan Parcerisa, i els demana que a l'hora d'informar també informin més que els altres regidors. A continuació pren la paraula Maria Pilar Viladrich i explica que les retribucions que proposa Alternativa per Solsona – CUP pels membres de la corporació haurien d'estar entre els 1.600 i els 1860 euros al mes com a màxim. En aquest sentit la retribució de l'alcaldia s'hauria d'ajustar a aquests imports i també s'hauria de disminuir les retribucions dels regidors amb dedicació parcial de 12.767,70 € bruts/any i de 29.791,29 € bruts/any, que representen un 30% i 70% de la jornada respectivament, de forma que el sou màxim mensual tenint en compte la jornada no superés l'import esmentat. Pren la paraula Encarna Tarifa, portaveu de PSC-CP, i diu que les retribucions proposades s'ajusten a llei i per aquest motiu no hi troba cap inconvenient. Tot seguit es procedeix a la votació i la proposta presentada a la consideració del Ple s'aprova per 11 vots a favor dels regidors David Rodríguez i González (ERC-AM)alcalde-president, Rosó Codi Validació: 4S7HSM95MKK2HT3RC9TYCPNWZ | Verificació: http://solsona.eadministracio.cat/ Barrera i Call (ERC-AM), Ramon Montaner i Viladrich (ERC- AM), Judit Gisbert i Ester (ERCAM), Ramon Xandri i Solé (ERC-AM), Sara Alarcón i Postils (ERC-AM), Joan Parcerisa i Albacete (ERC-AM), Marc Barbens i Casals (JUNTS), Isabel Pérez i Martínez (JUNTS), Francesc Xavier Torres i Romero (JUNTS) i dos vots en contra dels regidors Maria Pilar Viladrich i Massana (ApS-CUP) i Òscar Garcia i Companys (ApS-CUP). 7. Determinació del nombre, característiques i retribucions del personal eventual A petició de l'alcaldia, la secretària llegeix la proposta que es presenta a la consideració del Ple, que diu així: «Un cop celebrades les eleccions locals convocades mitjançant Reial Decret 209/2019, de data 1 d'abril, el passat dia 26 de maig de 2019, i constituït el nou Ajuntament, es fa necessari procedir, en conformitat amb el que disposa que l'article 104.1 de la Llei 7/1985, de 2 d'abril, Reguladora de les Bases del Règim Local, en concordança amb els articles 304.1 de Decret Legislatiu 2/2003, de 28 d'abril, pel qual s'aprova el Text Refós de la Llei Municipal i de Règim Local de Catalunya a la determinació del nombre, característiques i retribucions del personal eventual, pel seu posterior nomenament mitjançant decret de l'Alcaldia d'aquest Ajuntament. Atès que segons l'article 104 bis de la Llei 7/1985 esmentada determina que el nombre de personal eventual per municipis entre 5.000 i 10.000 habitants el nombre de personal eventual no podà ser superior a un. Atès que el Ple de l'Ajuntament de Solsona en la sessió duta a terme el dia 29 de novembre de 2018 aprovà definitivament la plantilla de personal d'aquesta corporació per a l'exercici 2019 i a l'esmentada plantilla de personal es preveia un càrrec eventual pel lloc de treball de secretaria particular de l'alcalde. Per tot això, es proposa al ple l'adopció dels acords següents: Primer. Mantenir, a Maria Torregassa i Solanelles com a personal eventual de l'Ajuntament de Solsona pel lloc de secretària particular de l'alcalde, amb efectes a 17 de juny de 2019, amb les característiques i retribucions següents: Segon. Les retribucions anuals brutes d'aquest personal s'abonaran en dotze pagues de periodicitat mensual i dues pagues extraordinàries als mesos de juny i desembre, i es revisaran anualment en la mateixa proporció que es revisin les retribucions del personal al servei de la Corporació. Tercer. Condicionar l'eficàcia del present acord a les modificacions pressupostàries que s'hagin de realitzar per dotar a les partides adient de la consignació suficient per poder donar compliment el que s'ha establert. Número: 2019-0005 Data: 03/12/2019 Quart. Publicar el present acord en el Butlletí Oficial de la Província de Lleida i en el Diari Oficial de la Generalitat de Catalunya, en compliment del que estableix els articles 104.3 de la Llei 7/1985, de 2 d'abril, reguladora de les bases de règim local i del 304 del text refós de la Llei municipal i de règim local de Catalunya." Tot seguit l'alcalde explica que Maria Torregassa és la persona que ja ha estat ocupant aquest lloc en els darrers anys i es proposa la seva continuïtat. L'únic canvi es la reducció de jornada al 50%, però és a petició seva. De fet, ja fa uns mesos que la seva jornada era del 50% i, amb uns petits ajustos del personal, s'ha vist que funciona. Marc Barbens comenta que està conforme amb la proposta. Maria Pilar Viladrich explica que el seu vot serà d'abstenció atès que des del seu punt de vista s'ha d'evitar aquests tipus de nomenaments. No té cap inconvenient en la persona que es proposa, tot el contrari, però entén que cal acabar amb els nomenaments d'eventuals per ocupar aquests llocs de treball. Caldria que la provisió d'aquestes places es realitzés de la mateixa forma que la resta de llocs de treball. Encarna Tarifa diu que el seu vot serà favorable. Tot seguit es procedeix a la votació i la proposta presentada a la consideració del Ple s'aprova per 11 vots a favor dels regidors David Rodríguez i González (ERC-AM) alcalde-president, Rosó Barrera i Call (ERC-AM), Ramon Montaner i Viladrich (ERC- AM), Judit Gisbert i Ester (ERC-AM), Ramon Xandri i Solé (ERC-AM), Sara Alarcón i Postils (ERC-AM), Joan Parcerisa i Albacete (ERC-AM), Marc Barbens i Casals (JUNTS), Isabel Pérez i Martínez (JUNTS), Francesc Xavier Torres i Romero (JUNTS) i dues abstencions dels regidors Maria Pilar Viladrich i Massana (ApS-CUP) i Òscar Garcia i Companys (ApS-CUP). 8.

L'alcalde també avança que hi ha previst la incorporació dels regidors de l'oposició a les visites als barris. Tot seguit pren la paraula Maria Pilar Viladrich per fer unes observacions als decrets de l'alcaldia que s'ha donat compte: Codi Validació: 4S7HSM95MKK2HT3RC9TYCPNWZ | Verificació: http://solsona.eadministracio.cat/ Document signat electrònicament des de la plataforma esPublico Gestiona | Pàgina 10 de 11 En relació al Decret 198/2019, on consta de delegació de l'àrea d'Igualtat a favor de la regidora Judit Gisbert, demana que es reconsideri la denominació d'Igualtat i, per una lluita per les desigualtats, es canviï per Feminisme. En relació al Decret 203/ 2019, sobre assignació a barris de regidors, diu que les visites als barris permeten la proximitat al carrer i el contacte directe amb els ciutadans, però la informació que s'obté d'aquestes visites no pot quedar únicament per l'equip de govern. Afegeix que hi ha un document de la GAIP que ho avala i en aquest sentit demana que a cada reunió hi hagi un document dels aspectes tractats i que es faci arribar a tots els grups municipals. Tot seguit pren la paraula Encarna Tarifa i sobre els darrers assumptes comentats diu que la denominació d'Igualtat engloba totes les diferències i considera que el nom de l'àrea no pot ser més correcte. La regidora també diu que compateix l'opinió de Maria Pilar Viladrich en tot el que ha explicat del tema dels barris. En relació al decret 203/2019, Marc Barbens diu: - Un canvi en la regidoria de Cultura desprès de 12 anys, ho veu bé, però li sorprèn que la regidora Sara Alarcón sols tingui delegada l'àrea del Vinyet. - Hi ha una sobrecàrrega de tasques delegades a Joan Parcerisa. - Li ha sorprès que les àrees de Serveis Socials i Governació no estiguin delegades i que depenguin directament de l'alcalde. Marc Barbens també diu que s'alegra que els grups de l'oposició puguin assistir a les visites als barris. Alhora demana que es tingui en compte la possibilitat d'assignar barris a grups de l'oposició. Tot seguit l'alcalde comenta que la denominació de l'àrea de Feminisme no se l'havia plantejat. Pel que fa a les trobades de barris, l'alcalde explica que sempre han estat visites obertes a tothom. Si a partir d'ara s'ha de fer acta dels temes tractats i fer-les arribar a tots els grups, ja es farà. La possibilitat d'assignar barris a grups de l'oposició cal acabar-la d'estudiar i concretar.

ASCAC 2014 Conference|Sep Tepy Author : Bob Coleman Tagged as : Ancient Kemetic Studies Conference, ascac, David Imhotep, sep tepy Date : March 17, 2014 Restoring & Transmitting Maat from Sep Tepy Just got back from the ASCAC 2014 Conference in Newark, NJ. The theme of the 31st ancient Kemetic (Egyptian) Studies Conference - Ancestral Wisdom: Restoring & Transmitting Matt from Sep Tepy. What Is Sep Tepy? The ancient Egyptians had a concept they called the Sep Tepy or "First Time". This was a primordial golden age, an age of the gods, that preceded the rise of the culture we know today as ancient Egypt. According to the Egyptians' own legends, the exceptionally advanced technologies and mystical systems which the dynastic Egyptians enjoyed were actually the legacy of this elder culture. Many of the Egyptian temples were believed to be reconstructions of temples that had existed in the Sep Tepy but where destroyed in the cataclysm that ended that golden age. The following material is drawn from Andrew Collins' reading of the Edfu Building texts, as it appears in his book, "The Gods of Eden." I am currently tracking down a copy of 1 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org) http://blackhistorymonth2014.com these texts so I can read and redact them for myself, but unfortunately, all I've been able to turn up is an oblique reference to them in a Budge book, and a few scattered lines quoted in books like Lucy Lamy's "Egyptian Mysteries." But I think the Edfu documents are important enough to continue the search. That, and it's always a good idea to go back to the source, even when something is being redacted by someone whose scholarship seems pristine. In translations, especially, our personal biases often influence our presentation of the work. Dr. David Imhotep Explains Sep Tepy ASCAC 2014 Conference More About Sep Tepy 2 / 2

EUROPEAN CYBERSECURITY MONTH (ECSM) 2021 MARCH 2022 ABOUT ENISA The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity, ENISA, is the Union’s agency dedicated to achieving a high common level of cybersecurity across Europe. Established in 2004 and strengthened by the EU Cybersecurity Act, the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity contributes to EU cyber policy, enhances the trustworthiness of ICT products, services and processes with cybersecurity certification schemes, cooperates with Member States and EU bodies, and helps Europe prepare for the cyber challenges of tomorrow. Through knowledge sharing, capacity building and awareness raising, the Agency works together with its key stakeholders to strengthen trust in the connected economy, to boost resilience of the Union’s infrastructure, and, ultimately, to keep Europe’s society and citizens digitally secure.

ISBN 978-92-9204-573-9, DOI 10.2824/647127, ISSN: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has driven more people to work, share and shop in cyberspace, accelerating a migration to online existence that began in 1989 when the world wide web came into being. ENISA has been raising public awareness of cybersecurity risks through an annual EU-wide awareness-raising campaign since the idea was explored in a feasibility study in 2011 and launched as a pilot project in 2012. Aimed at citizens, organisations and businesses, the European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM) is a month-long campaign held every October across the EU and beyond. ECSM promotes cybersecurity awareness and education, and provides guidance on good practices for individuals and organisations in order to increase resilience and create a more cyber secure culture across the EU. Importantly, the EU Cybersecurity Act (CSA) came into force on 27 June 2019 with an emphasis on making cybersecurity a priority in awareness campaigns. In accordance with Articles 4 and 10 of the CSA, ENISA must promote a high level of cybersecurity awareness, including cyber hygiene and cyber literacy among citizens, organisations and businesses. The COVID-19 pandemic certainly changed the scope of the ECSM back in 2020. Up to that point, the ECSM had mainly been an interactive month with physical events spread across participating countries. The pandemic posed a great challenge to staging the workshops, conferences, training sessions and other events that made up this platform for sharing ideas and campaign materials. However, ENISA was up for the challenge and succeeded in transferring to a digital platform, accelerating its digital transformation. The 2021 European Cybersecurity Month Campaign was built on the solid foundations of that previous experience and success. The aim this year was to go beyond informing and to encourage action and behaviour change. Building on the analysis of what worked well in the 2020 campaign, more video was used to generate greater engagement. A series of real-life stories were accompanied with actionable recommendations. Infographics were created and distributed through social media with a view to helping the viewer take action if needed. Gamified content such as social media puzzles were included to engage people in innovative ways. This strategy ensured that ENISA built on the success of last year with the high impact ‘Think Before U Click’ campaign. The ECSM 2021 campaign was a resounding success this year with significant growth in social media mentions overall, and social media reach at over 20 million (over twice the 8.8 million figure of 2020). Twitter, a powerful tool for reaching the campaign’s target audiences, showed a 15% growth in followers. In fact the @CyberSecMonth account now has well over 28,000 followers. Over 70% of MS say that their campaign (or their partners’) has had an impact in reducing cyber incidents. Highlights of the 2021 ECSM Campaign - Number of activities bounced back to 517 after dropping off at the start of the pandemic - Percentage of member states agreeing that their or their partners’ campaigns reduced cyber incidents was very high at 73% - Online social media reach of ECSM content increased to over 20 million (from 8.8 million last year) - Proportion of member states that gave ECSM a “good” or “excellent” rating was 69% - Social media mentions increased to over 23,000 (a 3x increase on 2020) - Number of Twitter followers increased to over 28,000 from 24,000 Beyond the effectiveness of the campaign content itself as shown in the highlight figures above, ENISA sought to find a better way to measure effectiveness in terms of metrics related to behavioural change. This meant finding new and better ways of collecting data on the activities at Member State level. Data collection from the Member States was also improved following on from the analysis of ECSM 2020 and taking on board the feedback from the national coordinators themselves. The evaluation questionnaires provided to Member States, to analyse the event after the fact, were updated to make them more scientifically accurate while also allowing greater flexibility and more insight into the perspectives of key coordinators of the Member States in the qualitative data gathered. More countries participated in the evaluation this year (at 26) than for any previous ECSM. ECSM 2021 was more evolved in terms of output, participation and analysis than any previous European Cybersecurity Month. In the coming years, ENISA and all Member States will need to continue engaging citizens and organisations in boosting cybersecurity awareness and education. The ECSM deployment report is intended to provide a basis for discussion among Member States, the European Commission and ENISA on how the ECSM can best be organised in the future. This discussion is essential to ensuring that the European Cybersecurity Month will continue to evolve with a focus on addressing the growing needs of individuals, organisations and businesses across the EU. # TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 THE ECSM STORY When ENISA was established in 2004 few could have imagined how important it would be for people, businesses and institutions to have security in cyberspace. ENISA contributes to EU cyber policy, enhances the trustworthiness of ICT products, services and processes with cybersecurity certification schemes, engages Member States and collaborates with them and with EU bodies, and helps coordinate a European response for the cyber challenges of tomorrow. ENISA is committed to increasing awareness of cybersecurity across Europe by providing up-to-date digital security information on cyber threats to all Europeans each October through the European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM) campaign. A feasibility study for ECSM was carried out in 2011 and the first ECSM campaign was launched as a pilot project in 2012. This was the genesis of what was to become the EU’s annual month-long campaign dedicated to promoting cybersecurity among citizens and organisations. This is achieved every year by providing up-to-date online security information through awareness raising and sharing best practice across Europe. Each year, for the entire month of October, hundreds of activities take place across Europe with 517 activities registered and approved in the ECSM website for 2021. These activities include conferences, workshops, training sessions, webinars, presentations and much more, all organised to promote digital security and cyber hygiene. For the first time this year, steps were taken to promote ECSM throughout the year by also running a promotional campaign about it in June. The ECSM gives ENISA the opportunity to raise awareness of cyber threats within specifically identified target groups by engaging directly with EU citizens (the end users) as well as businesses (the middlemen). This is done with partner organisations as well as, for the first time in ECSM 2021, ambassadors, well-known individuals and competition winners. The goal of ENISA is to build on this shared knowledge and together advance cybersecurity on all fronts. To help create a Europe fit for the digital age, people need a strong knowledge of cybersecurity and good cyber practices which means we need to further build trust among EU citizens. Being aware of cyber scams and “thinking before you click” are part of the ECSM’s easy-to-follow advice to limit risks and support us in securing this trust. Click here to watch the ECSM 2021 campaign “coming soon” video In the last two years, the COVID-19 pandemic has meant that Europe has changed in a very significant way. As people and institutions across the EU found a way to respond to the pandemic more and more EU citizens found themselves working and socialising in cyberspace. More people online means more vulnerable people falling prey to cybercrime. New generations brought up around cyberspace may offer better innovations for cybersecurity through their knowledge and skills, but more sophistication also means a growing industry of cybercrime. Europe in 2021 is very different to the Europe of 2012 when ECSM was first launched. All through the years since that first ECSM campaign took place in 2012, it has adapted to the changing environment and the needs of its target groups — going from strength to strength. The ECSM initiative is coordinated centrally by ENISA who works in close collaboration and deep engagement with the Member States. ECSM directly meets the agency’s brief of raising cybersecurity awareness for EU citizens across all Member States, making their digital world safer as they navigate their cyber life. 1.2 TARGET AUDIENCE FOR THIS REPORT This report summarises the activities carried out by ENISA, as well as participating EU Bodies, Member States, EFTA countries and partners for the 2021 campaign. It presents the evaluation of the campaign as well as insights that can be drawn from it for future years. This report is intended for organisations that have supported the ECSM - or intend to do so in the future. The report may also be of interest to cybersecurity professionals and other groups who have participated in ECSM. The report is also useful to EU and national policymakers who are aiming to improve the cybersecurity awareness of citizens and professionals. In addition, this report is publicly available to any EU citizen with an interest in ENISA, ECSM or cybersecurity in general to help them understand what initiatives took place during the 2021 European Cybersecurity Month and its results. 1.3 EVALUATION METHODOLOGY European Cybersecurity Month continues to grow in strength. Year after year the impact is wider and larger in terms of the different audiences it reaches and the number of clicks, tweets and video views that it generates. As the evaluation methodology evolves over time, this year ENISA determined that there was a need to start moving towards trying to measure behavioural change. This led us to look beyond the previous Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and explore if we could start introducing some different performance indicators that could in the medium to long term show us whether there has been behavioural change in the target groups. This is something that ENISA has been doing together with a dedicated new task force to develop KPIs which focus more on the behavioural side. The focus is to look at the end user outcomes of the campaigns and try to measure them - as opposed to just measuring the communications outputs. Whilst measuring the behaviour at citizen level has been a difficult challenge for European level initiatives, collaboration with Member States can offer transparency through access to partner organisations and users. Awareness raising is an indispensable component of improving cybersecurity within the EU. However, this is a very big challenge. Many incidents are enabled by some type of human error, and there is a strong human factor at play in prevention, making cybersecurity everyone’s responsibility. Changing behaviour is therefore an essential component of building a Europe fit for the digital age. Improving and evolving the way that the impact of ECSM is measured to include behavioural change is essential. Before organisations can go about changing behaviour through campaigns, research needs to be done to understand what the current status quo is. That is, research should look into what the attitudes, capabilities, and challenges are for users that may be preventing them from adopting cyber hygiene best practices. 1.4 THE STORY OF ECSM OVER THE YEARS Since being launched as a pilot project in 2012, the ECSM campaign has been coordinated by ENISA and the European Commission with the support of EU Member States and many partners. Governments, universities, think tanks, NGOs, professional associations and private-sector businesses from Europe and beyond join the campaign each year to unite people across the EU against cyber threats. Not only does the campaign promote the safer use of the internet for EU citizens, but it also strives to provide ready access to the knowledge and tools to do so. ENISA coordinates the organisation of the ECSM campaign by acting as a “hub” for all participating Member States and EU institutions. ENISA does this by providing expert suggestions, generating synergies and promoting common messaging among EU citizens, businesses and public administration. A crucial aspect of this is that we publish new creative content and provide expert advice on different cybersecurity topics for stakeholders in Member States to use at a local level.

PLANNING PHASE 2.1 ROLE OF ENISA AND MEMBER STATES IN ECSM 2021 2.1.1 The ECSM Vision ENISA through ECSM aims to create a cybersecurity culture across the European Union. Through ECSM, ENISA develops innovative and engaging ways to raise EU citizens’ awareness of cybersecurity and enhance the pan-European vision of stronger cybersecurity by promoting collaboration with the EU institutions, Member States and international organisations. 2.1.2 The ECSM Mission The Agency’s mission for the ECSM is to collaborate with the EU institutions, Member States and international organisations by finding innovative and fun ways to raise EU citizens’ awareness of cybersecurity and enhance the pan-European vision of stronger cybersecurity. 2.1.3 Objectives for ECSM 2021 The key objectives of the 2021 ECSM campaign were: • generate general awareness about cybersecurity; • educate and enhance awareness of information security and privacy by increasing awareness on the chosen themes of 2021 campaign across the EU; • elevate the understanding of cybersecurity risks and practices across the EU and globally; • promote the safer use of the internet for end-users and the practice of basic cyber hygiene; • continue building on the strong track record of this annual campaign in raising awareness of cybersecurity across Europe; • engage relevant stakeholders and increase the participation of EU Member States; • increase media interest and political interest at EU and national levels through a Europe-wide campaign and through national campaigns. 2.2 COORDINATION Coordinating a campaign of the scale of ECSM across EU member states, EFTA countries, the European Commission, Europol and the European Central Bank amongst others in a global pandemic was always going to be a challenge. On-going and effective communication with all stakeholders across the group was essential to ensure the success of ECSM 2021. As described in more detail below, ENISA led regular communication with Member States to enhance collaboration and cooperation across all involved. Using online platforms such as Webex effectively was key to the planning and exchange of ideas. The Campaign Coordinators (CG) group was the high-level planning committee. This group included all member states, EFTA countries, representatives from the European Commission and other important partners like Europol. The CG typically met monthly on video conference calls, with voting on any topics taking place within the chat as necessary in order to streamline decision-making. Four Task Forces were created, each focussing on a different topic: one each for the two themes of the campaign, one for the governance model and one for reviewing the evaluation framework. Each of these task forces met regularly and reported back on the main “CG” meetings. These meetings were all highly interactive using video and screen sharing as well as the chat function to foster open and productive communication. At both task force and CG level, a mix of tight focus and big picture kept the momentum going and gave everyone a voice at the planning meetings. Campaign coordinators exchanged ideas for 2021 and information from previous campaigns in an open and positive way sharing lessons learned and best practices. Working closely with them, ENISA was able to finalise key areas of the campaign, such as the themes of the month, the creative content, and the organisation of the campaign content calendar. Here is a good example of content from Europol: 3. CAMPAIGN PLAN This year’s ECSM campaign was designed to address security issues surrounding the digitalisation of everyday life, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Of course, because of the pandemic the majority of this year’s ECSM activities – from conferences and training to presentations and knowledge games – have moved online. Overall, the move towards everything now being digital influences all the target audience’s interactions with cybersecurity as a topic in 2021. The ECSM was an opportunity to promote the underlying value that is the foundation of the ECSM, namely that cybersecurity is a shared responsibility. Following on from 2020’s campaign, and encouraging people to ‘Think Before U Click’ as a motto for a second year, the 2021 campaign highlighted different cybersecurity themes to help users identify and prepare for cyber threats. An online ECSM coordinators group planning meeting was held in March 2021. Reflecting on last year’s successes and learning points the group also set to the task of identifying themes for the 2021 campaign. The group agreed that there would be four Task Forces (TFs) this year: one for each of the two themes, one working on a governance model and terms of reference, and one reviewing and improving the evaluation and metrics framework. This latter task force on evaluation included looking at parameters related to behaviour change. A number of different potential areas of focus were identified by the group prior to the meeting using a survey. Among the themes considered were phishing, securing SMEs, communications security, identity theft and security in healthcare among other topics. The pros and cons of these were discussed during the planning meeting. While all of these themes were given consideration two themes were agreed on as being the main focus for 2021 “Being Cyber Secure from Home” and “Cyber First Aid” for the reasons summarised below. These are the two themes that would define the content for the two phases of ECSM and which were executed using a campaign strategy that included the funnel approach shown below: 3.1 THEMES OF ECSM 2021 AND RATIONALE FOR THEIR SELECTION 3.1.1 Be Cyber Secure from Home The first theme centred around “Being Cyber Secure from Home” by providing tips on how one can remain cyber secure when working, studying or corresponding online from home. The theme aimed to promote cyber hygiene and good practices online. Although the coordinator group felt that there is a lot of information already available on this topic, during the planning meeting it was agreed that there were still a lot of areas for improvement. It was agreed that refreshed messaging that was updated to include current best practices and real life examples would catch the attention of the public. The dedicated task force assigned to this theme took on this opportunity to collect key messages and update them; including tips on best practice, real life examples and incidents. For this theme “Be Cyber Secure from Home” it was also important to note that different aspects of this affect men and women differently. 3.1.2 Cyber First Aid The aim of the theme of Cyber First Aid was to provide guidance to citizens who fall victim to cyber attacks. This theme appealed to most of the coordinators at the planning meeting as it was not dealt with in any of the past campaigns, and there was agreement that a large proportion of the EU population does not know where to turn to in the event of a cyber-incident. Sharing guidelines on what to do in case of online fraud or other cyber-security incidents would therefore add value and help achieve the campaign’s objectives. The goal was to encourage users to have a heightened awareness of the most common cyber threats and provide advice on how to react in case one falls victim. To facilitate this, an EU map with contact details of authorities and services available in each Member State was developed with the help of the Coordinators Group that provided the information for each country: cybersecuritymonth.eu/cyber-first-aid There is a very big part of the EU population that does not know where to turn to in case of a cyber-incident. Sharing guidelines on what to do in case of online fraud or other cyber-security incidents would therefore add value and help achieve the campaign’s objectives. 3.2 ECSM 2021 TARGET AUDIENCE PERSONAS AND RATIONALE FOR THEM According to Europol, due to the physical restrictions enacted to halt the spread of the COVID-19, with a subsequent increase in working from home and remote access to business resources, many individuals and businesses that may not have been as active online before the crisis became a lucrative target for cyber attackers. (Source: Europol) This leaves many groups in many categories open to cybercrime. In order to reach people with the right message in the right way, audience personas were created to better understand and communicate to those groups. These audience personas drew on the research carried out in the PESTLE analysis which looked at the big picture across the following areas: Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal, and Environmental. This PESTLE analysis helped identify key audience segments and further research narrowed down the typical audience members in each segment to help develop these personas. **Heavy Social Media Users** 21+ years old Younger people are spending more time online during the pandemic due to rolling lock downs and restrictions. Limited opportunities to socialise in person mean people are spending a lot of time connecting with friends online and are therefore vulnerable. **People Working from Home and Families** 30-35+ years old People need to use their home Wi-Fi and own devices to access confidential information from work. They have to communicate with colleagues and their bosses digitally, through emails, and video calls, and are more exposed and vulnerable to hackers and scammers. Women in particular are juggling work and home responsibilities including home schooling. **General Users and Online Shoppers** 40-55 years old Victims of online fraud are often individuals who are vulnerable because of their age, technical ability, and lack of awareness of fraud scams as they go about their online activities. **Older Users** 60+ years old Older people were forced to use online banking to pay for bills and shop by the Covid-19 restrictions. They are now using devices such as tablets regularly for the first time. Many of them are less aware of the different types of cyberscams happening at the moment and find it difficult to spot them. 3.3 ECSM 2021 COMMUNICATIONS CHANNELS The on-going Covid-19 pandemic is leading to less of a focus on physical events and more emphasis on the online world. ECSM used a mix of social media platforms across Facebook, Twitter and YouTube in order to create an effective mix for partners to increase reach because each platform has its own distinct character and user profile. A mix of both organic and paid social media posts were used to increase reach and drive engagement. A mix of media was created to help partners and stakeholders get the message out. The visual identity was kept consistent with previous years and emphasised the slogan "#ThinkB4UClick". This consistency is important from a "branding" point of view as ENISA grows awareness ECSM from year to year. Tailored communications toolkits were created for Ambassadors, Partners and Media. Press releases were also sent out detailing the plans for the month. From the experience of previous years, ECSM planners knew that offering more information via website links and landing pages creates more engagement. This led ENISA to update the ECSM website cybersecuritymonth.eu with landing pages linked to themes and topics. An interactive map was added to the website to enable people across Europe to find out quickly who they should turn to for help if they were targeted by cybercriminals. News items on the web were also included to increase reach. One of the key learnings from ECSM 2020 was that video content is an effective way to grab people’s attention on social media channels. This year a series of 6 short videos were created that featured stories of real people who had been targeted by cyber attackers. These films were created to highlight the issue, to show how the person dealt with the crisis and to give advice on what to do if it happens to you. Creating content centrally in different languages also resulted in improved workflow for the translation of material and ensured consistency across content in all languages. The videos were produced in English and subtitled with translations in the official EU languages as well as Norwegian. A parallel series of 4 creative videos were also produced to increase the reach of the campaign. A series of 3 infographics were produced for each of the 2 themes. These were created in 23 EU languages and Norwegian (144 infographics). Short videos that could be used on social media to promote each of the infographics were also produced (144 videos). Visual social media posts with useful tips and gamified elements, making the viewer work a little bit to earn the message also made engagement more effective. Amongst other updates, infographics were posted that offered useful and practical advice that was clear and easy to follow. People were also challenged and educated with the cybersecurity quiz. See Annex A for a selection of the multimedia content produced along with clickable links to view them online. 4. EXECUTION PHASE 4.1 CONTENT CALENDAR Day-by-day content calendars were developed to synchronise posting across ECSM’s own channels and those of the Member States. The first content calendar was created for the promotional campaign in June, running from 1-30 June 2021. The main content calendars were then created to cover ECSM itself. There were different versions, one for internal ENISA use and another one for sharing with the Member States (as shown in Annex B). The internal one was more detailed, containing extra information needed to run the campaign. This internal content calendar ran from 28 September to 31 October 2021. The content calendar for the Member States was focused on the posts and information most relevant to them and ran across a slightly narrower time period from 29 September to 29 October 2021. The content calendars had different columns that set out information such as: - Theme - Date to Publish - Creative Name - Explanatory Notes - Copy for Social Media Post - Paid Post / Organic Post - Media Spend The content calendars worked very well as tools to enable coordination of the campaign both centrally by ENISA as well as to help synchronising posts with the Member States. One of the challenges encountered was making sure fast-turnaround changes were shared with the Member States so that they were always using the latest version. In the future, it could be worth considering using a shared online calendar on a secure collaborative online platform so that everyone could be sure they were always looking at the latest version. 4.2 LAUNCH OF THE ECSM 2021 On September 29 an inter-institutional launch event brought together many key players and was a great platform to begin the month's activities. The agenda and recordings are available online at this link. Significant support was given to the launch by European Commission Vice-Presidents and other members of the College: - Message by EC Vice-President Margrethe Vestager - Message by EC Vice-President Margaritis Schinas - Message by EC Commissioner Johannes Hahn - Message by EC Director-General Mario Campolargo - Message by the Head of CERT-EU Saad Kadhi Also, for the first time this year, the winning team at the European Cybersecurity Challenge became ECSM ambassadors. 4.3 CAMPAIGN MATERIALS AND SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT Here is an overview summary of the materials shared during the campaign. A huge amount of content was created by ENISA and the Member States, a selection of which is shown here. The revamped interactive quiz also went live during the month. More of the content is shown in the Annexes. 4.3.1 Be Cyber Secure from Home Infographic: Tips on how to keep your home safe Video: Find out what could happen if you share private information online.

We present here a small selection as a representative sample. Collecting these stories enables the sharing of best practice between Member States and the wealth of material provided this year demonstrates exciting opportunities for fostering this collaboration and sharing in future years. Czech Republic It is also important to complete the posts with eye-catching pictures. Especially children attach great importance to the visual side. It is our message and challenge for next year’s campaign too. https://www.instagram.com/p/CVKGr8-oIGJ/ Malta Exposure has been given to Cyber Security Malta on various platforms, namely, TV, radio, online portals, and traditional newspaper as well as on social media. Given the reach and query for assistance received, awareness was well engaged with the general public and there is the desire for more information. Bulgaria As long as there is a continuously ongoing discussion of cybersecurity risks and awareness, at some point the audiences we targeted will adopt cybersecurity advice as an essential part of their online presence and behaviour. Finland The best thing about ECSM campaign is that it brings more materials - tips and advice for every day cyber life - to our website. Those materials (along with the guidance produced by NCSC-FI) can be shared by our ministry, other state offices and other organisations we work close with. Guest writer: Updates under control? SeniorSurf helps the elderly go digital Published 15.02.2021 16:39 SeniorSurf helps other people to use computers and the Internet. The association operates nationwide and supports seniors in digital skills for older people. To celebrate the European Cybersecurity Month, we have invited as guest writers Lisa Tikkanen and Titta Hietanen from SeniorSurf to write an article on how to help the elderly. Read more at the website of Older People. Let us help everyone learn cyber skills – growing old should not stop anyone from being active in the digital world. Luxembourg The fact that the ECSM has now a fully-fledged campaign is certainly an advantage to better reach the user with a coordinated European message. Cybersecurity is a shared responsibility and at national level we will continue to support the ECSM. https://www.cybersecurityweek.lu/ Slovakia The majority of cyber attacks are still a result of human error, which is why we believe that the best protection or “antivirus” is knowledge. By offering this free course, we are giving each user the opportunity to educate themselves on cybersecurity and obtain the necessary knowledge and skills to stay secure in the workplace. 5. EVALUATION 5.1 FOCUS OF MEASUREMENT Overall, there were effectively three ways in which data was collected: One source was data gathered centrally which is directly - for example about social media paid posts; Local data was collected from member states via a questionnaire; and data from “earned channels”, such as the chatter on social media, which was collected using a third party social media listening tool that listens to conversations “in the wild” (shown here). The goal was to move towards real world impact and how that might be measured. To that end proxy measurements were sought for behavioural change, which is challenging to measure in itself. However, some assumptions can be made to extrapolate the information from those elements that can be measured. For example, it is possible to determine how much of a video that was posted was watched by a viewer. If the person was interested enough to watch the video, then it can be assumed that they are engaged. That means engagement can be used as a proxy for interest and interest as proxy for behavioural change. 5.2 QUESTIONNAIRE OPTIMISATION In order to precisely evaluate and assess the effectiveness of ECSM it is crucial to have good data from Member States. The objective this year was to increase the Member States’ response rates for the evaluation questionnaires and to gather better quality data using scientifically validated metrics. To this end extensive work was done by the task force in improving the questionnaire. This resulted in 26 countries filling in the evaluation questionnaire this year compared to 19 in 2020. The questions were scrutinised by the task force to make them more targeted, useful and relevant. The data type of each field was properly ordered into qualitative, quantitative, open text and Likert values. Specific fields were made mandatory to avoid empty fields for crucial information. This year it was decided to include not only the questionnaire itself but also an analytics spreadsheet (with questions such as those shown here) as well as a story template document to enable ENISA to have more qualitative and quantitative data for the ECSM. This gave Member States a more structured and flexible way to share their activities and their outcomes as well as to collect the appropriate data internally. | Web Analytics | |---------------| | Questions | | Country Name | | Do you have a specific website for the ECSM campaign? | | If not, do you plan to have a specific website for ECSM within 3 years? | | Do you have specific landing pages for the ECSM campaign? | | Has there been an increase, decrease or no change in the number of people who visited the website in October 2021 in comparison to September 2021? | | What is the percentage of the increase or decrease in website visitors during October 2021 in comparison to September 2021? | | What is the percentage of the increase or decrease in website visitors during October 2021 in comparison to October 2020? | | What is the percentage of visitors to the website who entered and then left without clicking to anywhere else on your website? | | What is the number of unique visitors of your ECSM website in October 2021? | | What is the total number of visitor actions (e.g. page views, registrations, form submissions) that occurred on the website in October 2021? | | What is the average time the webpages were viewed by visitors in October 2021? | | What is the average time visitors actually interacted during the page viewing in October 2021? | Details of the number of Member States and other countries who took part in the evaluation by returning at least the EUSurvey Questionnaire are presented in the table below.\(^1\) This year, this figure was up by 7 to 26 countries from the figure of 19 in 2020. This increase of 37% is largely due to the deeply collaborative approach taken to the questionnaire design this year. **More countries are participating in the evaluation every year** ![Graph showing the increase in number of countries participating in the evaluation over the years] ### 5.3 ASSESSMENT OF IMPLEMENTED ACTIONS BASED ON THE EVALUATION METHODOLOGY In this section we present the results reported by the Member States in their survey responses. The qualitative data responses were studied to identify themes and representative samples are included here. All feedback received has been reviewed and follow up actions taken into consideration. #### 5.3.1 Results of Member state EUSurvey Questionnaire ##### 220.127.116.11 Campaigns In relation to the Member State campaigns, **over two thirds of respondents (69%) said they had organised specific ECSM campaigns.** There is a big variation in the number of organisations (for example, number of schools etc.) that participate in ECSM from country to country. Some reported as many as 100-2,000 organisations taking part although the median figure was approximately 22 because the figures were much lower in some countries. --- \(^1\) *The campaign in Belgium ran on different dates to the main ECSM campaign in October, and provisional figures were provided by them in their questionnaire responses at the time of writing.* Overall, more organisations in the Member States participated this year than previously as shown in the chart below: The average growth in the number of participating organisations year-on-year was an increase of 46%. The most common types of organisations that took part were Public, Private and Education although several countries also mentioned that NGOs had taken part in their campaigns. In terms of resourcing, on average 46 person days were allocated by each Member State coordinating organisation to ECSM 2021. This is up significantly from the 31 person days of 2020. A third of organisers had 2 or more full time employees fully focused on ECSM, a third had one person full time on ECSM, and the remaining third had no full-time people focussed exclusively on ECSM 2021. The most common departments these people worked in were Communications and IT, although interestingly Cybersecurity and HR teams were also involved in some Member States. The cost of ECSM activities varied greatly, with just over half (54%) reporting no costs. Of those with costs for ECSM activities, the average cost was €79k per Member State. The target audiences in each Member State spanned a wide range. Notably, young people were a focus for many countries as well as cybersecurity experts. This indicates an interest in reaching “middlemen” experts who work in the area of cybersecurity. The audiences range from the public to experts As would be expected, the average duration of the ECSM campaign was also 5 weeks in the Member States reflecting the focus on the month of October itself. In a sign of how useful the Member States find the ENISA-generated content, most Member States used ENISA material either exclusively or in conjunction with their own materials: Most countries used ENISA materials The average number of security themes or topics covered varied greatly, and on average 12 themes were covered in each country, but many preferred to focus on 3 core themes/topics. In addition to the two overall themes of the ECSM campaign, Member States also focused on a wide range of other themes from election security to women in cybersecurity. The themes and topics captured in the survey give a rich source of inspiration for future editions of ECSM. 18.104.22.168 Events Nearly two-thirds (62%) of Member States organised specific events for ECSM 2021 (either online or in person): Many of these conferences/workshops catered for more than 50 attendees. Some countries organised 1 such event while others organised up to 30 events: Although many events were small scale with approximately 50 attendees, several attracted over 500 attendees possibly due to their hybrid and/or online nature during the pandemic. It was these larger events that had significant budgets associated with them. Among the most popular materials and content distributed were videos, articles and podcasts. Interestingly, several Member States also organised live streamed social media events, while one country shared a free online eLearning course and others shared guidance documents. This provides valuable inspiration for future ECSM content. Most Member States (nearly 70%) don’t collect feedback from attendees in a structured way yet. However, almost all Member States believe strongly that attendees would recommend these events to their family and friends. 22.214.171.124 Feedback Just under half of respondents (46%) obtain feedback from users in relation to their campaigns. This shows the opportunity for improving best practice for the future by obtaining more feedback and creating more appropriate campaigns in response to user feedback. The main strengths highlighted in the feedback received from users included: - Practical tips such as infographics working well - Themes were of interest to the public - Powerful messages resonated Some weaknesses mentioned in the feedback included: - Too many events to attend online, missing ‘physical’ events during the pandemic - Knowledge and awareness are a prerequisite to change behaviour but not necessarily sufficient - The need for more awareness materials for non-expert users Similarly, 46% of Member States obtain feedback from partners about ECSM. Some of the strengths highlighted in the partner feedback received included: - The materials used (videos & infographics) were very useful and interesting - Great materials for distribution - Inspiration and energy Several weaknesses partners mentioned in their feedback were: - The need for more content for young people - Lack of funding for advertising on social media - The absence of physical events Some Member States had suggestions on how ENISA could continue and increase support to help them deliver more effective campaigns. Among the representative comments and suggestions coming through in this feedback were: - “I think ENISA works very well on the campaigns. Of course, there are always things that can be improved, but overall, I am very happy with the way it works.” - “Support is good as it is.” - “Determining the topics earlier, so our campaigns can be aligned.” - “You are doing a great job through the year. It is difficult to balance a one size fits all campaign, but your work serves as an inspiration for our national campaign activities.” Over two thirds of Member States who responded (69%) rated the overall implementation of the ECSM2021 campaign as Good or Excellent (similar to the previous year’s figure of 78%). Among responding Member States: - 73% believed ECSM2021 supported their outreach and promotion work (19% did not know, 8% disagreed) - 62% said ECSM adds value to their national campaign (23% felt it did not and 15% did not know) - 46% believed ECSM did offer opportunities for improving their national campaigns through international collaboration (35% did not know, and 19% felt it did not) - 69% said ENISA succeeded in sharing and promoting new ideas among ECSM partners (4% said it had not, and 27% did not know) - 69% reported that the content such as videos, infographics, and GIFs produced by ENISA for ECSM supported their national campaign (19% did not report that and 12% did not express an opinion) Most MS believe ECSM supports their national campaigns | Question | Yes | No | Do not know | |--------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----|----|-------------| | Did ECSM support the outreach and promotion of your work? | | | | | Did ECSM add value to your national campaign? | | | | | Did it offer opportunities for improving your campaigns? | | | | | Do you think ENISA succeeded in sharing new ideas? | | | | | Did the content (such as videos, infographics, GIFs etc.) produced by ENISA for ECSM support your national... | | | | The content produced for the ECSM2021 campaign was rated as Good to Excellent by 77% of Member States: Looking to the future, some Member States had suggestions for materials or content ENISA could offer to support their campaigns. This included: - eLearning courses - material aimed more at young people - more videos with real experiences Only 39% believed ENISA could promote their awareness material better, and 69% believed that ECSM offers opportunities for fostering a pan-European cybersecurity culture. A significant majority of 77% rate the implementation of the ECSM2021 campaign by ENISA Good to Excellent: Member States were also asked how they would recommend the support received from ENISA in relation to ECSM on a scale of 1 to 10 (where 1 is low and 10 is high). This follows a Net Promoter Score (NPS) approach which divides respondents into “promoters” who provide ratings of 9 or 10, “passives” who provide ratings of 7 or 8, and “detractors” who provide ratings of 6 or lower. The resulting NPS is then calculated by subtracting the proportion of detractors from the proportion of promoters.\(^2\) More Member States would recommend ENISA’s support than otherwise as shown by the calculated **positive Net Promoter Score (NPS)** figure of 8 and the stacked bar chart below: This Net Promoter Score is a particularly useful metric because it identifies areas where attention should be directed and where appropriate actions or interventions implemented. A similar methodology was used in a related question about whether the MS would recommend partnering with ENISA on ECSM next year to another organisation like theirs. Significantly more MS would recommend this partnership than not, and the resulting **Net Promoter Score (NPS) was very positive at 23**. This shows how valuable the partnership with ENISA on ECSM is perceived by the MS. This is represented visually below: ### 126.96.36.199 Measuring Behavioural Change The intention this year in relation to measuring behavioural change was to collect data from Member States to better understand how effective they perceive their campaigns to be in facilitating behaviour change, and to develop strategies that work to drive behaviour change that is conducive to cybersecurity, rather than simply educate and inform target audiences. By involving and inspiring the Member States to consider end user behaviour as part of the design of the campaigns, rather than simply providing information to stakeholders through a variety of channels, they are significantly improving the impact of their campaigns. A full concept was developed to provide a framework on which behavioural research can commence by working in partnership with MS. Although the questionnaire results show there was relatively low confidence in being able to measure behaviour change with specific users among MS, in fact **46% of them were able to obtain the required data** for the measurement of behaviour change (such as number of people signing up for training, or the percentage of people reporting a potential phishing email). This suggests there may be an opportunity to educate and inform MS as to how behaviour change can be measured more in the future. --- \(^2\) Source: “Net promoter score,” Wikipedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_promoter_score](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_promoter_score) Nearly half of MS can obtain behaviour change metrics Looking at ways to overcome the challenges involved, two key points emerged from the feedback: surveys were seen as the most feasible way of measuring behavioural change, and the fact that it was a “difficult” task in general to do was mentioned repeatedly. Quizzes or other knowledge assessment approaches were run by 35% to assess the knowledge of citizens or users as part of ECSM. Of those who do run these, 78% have seen an increase in performance of the participants at the ECSM test/quiz as a result of the campaigns: Just over half of MS (58%) agreed or strongly agreed with the statement that the campaign has been effective in raising belief in whether security behaviours can actually prevent cybersecurity threats. But only 35% agreed that the campaign has been effective in changing the perception that compliance with security guidelines is time consuming, and sometimes less productive, perhaps reflecting the technical challenges end users face in following best practices. Campaigns are seen as being effective although challenges remain Looking at the impact of Member State campaigns as reported in the survey responses also yields valuable insights: - 73% agree that their campaign (or their partners’) has had an **impact in reducing cyber incidents** (with the remaining 27% expressing no opinion) - 77% agree that their campaign (or their partners’) has **changed the attitudes of organisations** towards cyber threats (only 4% disagreed and 19% had no opinion) - A slightly lower figure of 62% agree that they’ve changed the attitudes of citizens towards cybersecurity (with 39% having no opinion and none disagreeing) - 73% say that their campaign has been effective in improving how an individual would act, if they are faced with a cybersecurity threat (the remaining 27% had no opinion on this) - Half of MS (50%) agree that users will remember the message of the campaign materials for more than one year – indicating the need for ECSM every year (15% disagreed and 35% had no opinion) Campaigns alone, particularly without user-level data, are limited in their ability to drive behaviour change when key challenges exist at a broader level. Behavioural research is therefore critical to understanding what those challenges are, particularly within organisations, with efforts made to reduce their effect to get maximum impact from awareness campaigns that are designed to reduce cybersecurity threat through user behaviour. When asked to describe their confidence in the campaigns in delivering behaviour change at citizen level, some interesting points emerged in the comments. A representative sample are shown here: - “I think the campaigns were well developed so they become effective” - “High Confidence in ECSM Campaign in delivering behaviour change at Citizen level” - “One campaign per year is not going to change behaviour. Regular work is needed” - “Awareness is key for changing use behaviour.” 188.8.131.52 Monitoring the Media in Member States When it comes to monitoring the media (online newspapers and publications), 62% of Member States are doing that using tools such CISION, Gopress and Meltwater. The vast majority of Member States (85%) issue press releases to the media. The 62% that have media monitoring tools in place are then also able to monitor the press release take up and results in the media. 184.108.40.206 Paid Advertising Most Member States (73%) did not organise TV/Radio advertisement activities for ECSM 2021. Of those who did, the ECSM advertisements were displayed typically 30+ times. Many Member States opted for paid advertising on social media. Among them, the average spend on digital advertising on social media across all MS (and partner) campaigns related to ECSM was €13k per MS on paid social media advertising. Although just over half of MS reported no change in digital advertising budget this year (54%), there were others (39%) who reported an increase. Belief in the effectiveness of this advertising is relatively strong with just under 70% rating it as somewhat to very effective, with only approximately 30% rating it as not effective. 5.3.2 Results of Member State Web Activities For the first time this year, and in response to MS feedback, the analytics for web and social media activities were collected in a separate spreadsheet to the main survey. However, from the variations in the amount of data filled in it is clear that this information is still hard to collect. This is possibly due to the fact that different teams look after web and social media in the MS organisations. The different analytics platforms being deployed on their websites would also lead to variations in data availability. This makes cross country comparisons difficult, but some general comments can be made: - Only 3 countries report having dedicated ECSM websites - However, an additional 4 countries have landing pages specific to ECSM - Most MS report an increase in visitors to their websites and landing pages in 2021 5.3.3 Results of Member State Social Media Activities Similarly, to the website data, the social media analytics were collected in separate spreadsheet form this year. Although the data is quite detailed it is difficult to compare like with like because of the apparent variations in how the data is being collected and reported across the different platforms. Some of the cross-cutting findings from analysis of the Member State social media activities include: - **Local language hashtags** were used in addition to the main ECSM ones by some (for example, #Cybermois in France) - **Different countries used different platforms for different audiences**, with many preferring to use Facebook and Instagram instead of Twitter and LinkedIn. This was most likely because this enabled them to target bigger “general public” audiences on Facebook and younger people on Instagram (pointing to a possible opportunity for evolving the ECSM social media channels in the future). - **TikTok was used by at least one country** although data on its effectiveness was not readily available ### 5.4 ASSESSMENT OF WEB RESULTS This year’s centralised ENISA web analytics give a useful insight into the impact and visibility of the campaign. #### 5.4.1 Assessment of ECSM Website Results A detailed analysis was carried out of the web analytics for the ECSM website during the period from 1 September to 30 November 2021. These visits over time are shown in this screenshot from the Matomo web analytics platform: Analysis shows that: - page views are now consistently above 100,000 views with 116,277 in 2021 (similar to the 2020 figure of 117,072 in 2020 and well up on the 102,945 of 2019) - website visits are also consistently high with 36,051 in 2021 (up from 35,445 in 2020 and 30,807 in 2019) - people are spending a significant amount of time on the site with an average visit duration of 5 min 28s - this interest is also reflected in the number of unique downloads which was 2,148 - during their visit, people carry out an average of 3.4 actions per visit (these are page views, downloads, out links and/or internal site searches) - the graph of visits shows a weekly periodicity, with weekdays Mon-Friday being the most visited days compared to weekends - in another improvement on previous years, the level of visits was sustained at a high level each week of the campaign in October, instead of just one big spike at the beginning of the month The figure below shows the number of page views that the ECSM website has had from 2014 to 2021. It demonstrates that page views on the ECSM website have been sustained at over 100,000 page views since 2019. This is over twice the number of page views of the campaign in 2014. Page views are now twice what they were Since 2019, there have been consistently more than 100,000 page views. In 2014, there were under 50,000 page views. 5.4.2 ECSM Map of Activities There were 517 activities registered and approved on the ECSM website for 2021. This shows an increase on the previous year, presumably as organisers got used to the “new normal” of the pandemic and again started organising more online, hybrid and physical events. The number of countries organising events (29) was approximately the same as last year which shows that more activities were happening in each country. The figure below shows the total number of events that took place in October 2021 compared to previous years showing the “bounce back” effect: Activities increased significantly this year Activities bounced back after the reduction caused by the pandemic in 2020. 5.4.3 ECSM Interactive Map For the first time this year, an interactive map was created to point people to in-country resources they could go to if they had been targeted by cyber criminals and needed help. This was important because clear contact information and pathways enables better reporting and protection against cybersecurity threats. For this reason, an EU map with contact details of authorities and services available in each Member State was developed with the help of the Coordinators Group that provided the information for each country. This was challenging to create as the approach in each Member State to cyber crime varies greatly. The resulting interactive “Cyber First Aid” map is now a valuable online resource that will be updated regularly as shown in this screenshot. The ECSM Interactive Map can be accessed online at the following link: https://cybersecuritymonth.eu/cyber-first-aid 5.5 ASSESSMENT OF MEDIA MONITORING RESULTS As well as reaching large social media audiences, ECSM also reached significant numbers of people through “traditional” publications such as newspapers. These results of media monitoring these mentions are shown in this section, as tracked by a media monitoring tool: - The total number of mentions from 1 September to 30 November 2021 was **4,870 mentions** - On average, **54 mentions occurred every day** This mentions over time trend graph shows a big spike in mentions around the ECSM launch and press release distribution at the end of September. There were also regular spikes in mentions during ECSM itself in October. The **potential reach was in the millions** due to the large audiences these publications have. It is difficult to discern a clear pattern as to when the peaks in reach were happening from the available data, but it is clear from this graph that the potential reach was very high on specific days before, during and after ECSM: An analysis of the keywords that are used in these publications when they are writing about ECSM also gives valuable context. The word cloud below shows that “security” is the main word that comes up as would be expected, but that interesting sub-topics such as “supply chain attacks” and “financial services” also come up. 5.6 ASSESSMENT OF ENISA SOCIAL MEDIA RESULTS (ORGANIC AND PAID) ECSM target audiences are very active on social media so this was a key way to reach them. This was achieved with both organic posts and paid posts, creating content centrally that was shared by ENISA as well as by the Member States in their own countries using translations that ENISA provided to them. 5.6.1 Daily growth of Twitter @CyberSecMonth followers The official Twitter @CyberSecMonth account for the month was again a powerful tool for social media promotion. By looking at the increase in followers to the @CyberSecMonth Twitter account during ECSM 2021 shown in this graph, it can be seen that it increased steadily and consistently each day during the campaign. The biggest daily growth in followers was near the beginning of the campaign, with only a slight plateauing effect towards the end of the month showing that momentum was kept up throughout. 5.6.2 Annual number of Twitter followers of @CyberSecMonth Strong growth in Twitter follower count was again a feature this year. It was up 15% on last year as can be seen in the chart here. The @CyberSecMonth account now has well over 28,000 followers. Twitter follower growth is consistently strong Follower count was up 15% this year 5.6.3 Social media reach Social media was used as a listening tool to measure mentions of the #CyberSecMonth and #thinkb4uclick hashtags on social media and the wider web. This goes beyond measuring what was happening only on ENISA owned channels, and factors in how other people were using these hashtags and engaging with the campaign. The headline figures are presented below. Notably they show **growth of over 3 times in mentions** overall, and **social media reach at over 20 million** (over twice the 8.8 million figure of last year): - Mentions 23,736 - Social Media Mentions 23,610 - Social Media Reach 20.4M - Interactions 17,733 - Shares 17,290 - Mentions from Blogs 63 - Mentions from Twitter 22,700 - Mentions/Day Average 484 - Unique Twitter Authors 8.3k This strong growth in reach is clearly shown in this chart giving an overview of the campaign’s overall online reach from 2014 to 2021. These results are most likely due to the digital campaign strategy of combining enhanced content with increased paid social media spend that was optimised on an on-going basis. **Social media reach has doubled this year** Reach was **20 million**, over twice the figure in 2020 --- ### 5.6.4 Daily Mentions Looking at daily data, online mentions peaked at the beginning of ECSM 2021, and continued strongly throughout the month – and even beyond into November. Interestingly, most of the activity was happening on weekdays, with Saturdays and Sundays being noticeably quieter days: 5.6.5 Twitter Follower Demographics An online tool was used to infer the gender of ECSM Twitter followers. Interestingly, the ECSM campaign’s “Full audience” skews more male (and less female) compared to the Twitter “Global – General” audience as shown in the screenshot below. This indicates that more males are following the ECSM Twitter account than would generally be the case for other accounts and can be used to inform the development of future campaign content. The age distribution of ECSM followers is also interesting to note, with the largest cohort being aged between 18 and 34 years old and skewing slightly older compared to the general Twitter user profile. This shows that there is an opportunity for growth by creating content that appeals to younger people. 5.6.6 Top Keywords Looking at the word cloud of the top keywords used alongside the campaign hashtags, we get a clear picture of the top keywords used around the campaign topics. This gives us an insight into the types of content that is resonating with our audiences. For example, “Tips” is the keyword featuring most often indicating that people are engaging with useful guidance on best practice. online security simple tips infographic information top priority awareness accounts look threats opening website event security tips video advice fraudsters online home citizens safe online data hackers campaign passwords cybercrime cyber secure cybersecurity life against cyber 5.6.7 Top Entities Interestingly, the EU was the “entity” most often mentioned on social media alongside the campaign hashtags, with ENISA itself also featuring prominently. This demonstrates the added value of a pan-European campaign in creating a shared sense of purpose in combating cybercrime across Europe. It also shows how the ECSM campaign increases the awareness of ENISA’s own work internationally.

However, we can see that many positive words are being used in the context of ECSM from the positive sentiment word cloud shown here. 5.6.9 Emotional Comparison Similarly, the emotions identified by the algorithm in mentions are also based on specific keywords, phrases and emojis and so should be interpreted with caution. Having said that, it is interesting to note that “joy” and “love” are the most prominent emotions suggesting that the campaign content was well received by the audience in general: 5.6.10 Top Hashtags The main campaign hashtag of #cybersecmonth was by far the most popular campaign hashtag online. It is interesting to see that the #cybersecurity hashtag is effectively tied with #thinkb4uclick for second place. These top 3 hashtags are followed by other less frequently used hashtags such as #cybersafe and the much longer #cybersecurityawarenessmonth as shown in this chart: 5.6.11 Number of campaign hashtag mentions per country on a worldwide scale The global nature of cybersecurity can be seen most clearly in the list of top locations for mentions. India features very prominently - even more prominently than in previous years, with the United States and United Kingdom in second and third place. As is often the case, the figures for EU Member States and EFTA countries are measured on a country-by-country basis and not aggregated for the whole of the EU. This means that these individual countries follow larger population countries in the top locations table and the EU ranking is spread out. There is also a tendency for English language hashtags such as #CyberSecMonth and #thinkb4uclick to be used more in English speaking countries which would explain why English speaking countries are present in the top positions as shown below: By looking at the distribution of mentions on a map as shown here, it is clear that most of the activity centres around Europe. It would appear that India has the potential to distort our numbers because of its population size and close connections to the EU and UK computer industry, so it is useful to also report the metrics excluding India (and also excluding that popular “entry level interview” cartoon post mentioned earlier). But even with this constraint imposed, the social media reach figure in particular still shows a big increase - almost double what it was last year: - Mentions 19,884 - Social Media Mentions 19,761 - Non-social mentions 123 - Social Media Reach 17.1M - Interactions 14,100 - Shares 13,700 - Mentions from Blogs 62 - Mentions from Twitter 18,800 - Mentions/Day Average 406 - Unique Twitter Authors 6.77k 5.6.12 The Power of Twitter Zoning in on Twitter specifically, we can see its power because it generated 196M impressions, with the same weekly periodicity mentioned earlier: Comparing the types of tweets reveals the popularity of retweeting the content, with over 15,000 retweets and nearly 2,000 “quote” retweets. 5.6.13 Emoji usage Insights into the social media activity can also be gleaned by looking at the use of emoji around the campaign hashtags. The “pointed finger” and “arrow” emojis feature prominently, and these would often be associated with the sharing of tips or interesting information. Again, this shows how the audience was responding positively to the content being shared on social media: 5.6.14 Gender Breakdown Although Twitter can deduce some information on gender from profiles, this should always be interpreted cautiously. Of those engaging with the campaign hashtags, there is a skew towards a more male audience, similar to that which could be seen with Twitter followers as shown in this screenshot from an online tool: 5.6.15 Paid post results The campaign content was posted on social media both organically and supported by paid media spend. The top line results for the paid posts, measured from 30 September to 15 November 2021, as reported by the built-in measurement tools of the social media platforms themselves, are presented in the table below. These results show an almost doubling in the important metrics of video views and engagement compared to last year’s figures. Website clicks are also up significantly by nearly 5 times year on year. | Effectiveness Metric | Communication Channel | Results | |----------------------|-----------------------|-------------| | Impressions | All | 8,936,093 | | | Facebook | 3,792,522 | | | Twitter | 3,637,525 | | | YouTube | 1,506,046 | | Video Views | All | 1,988,673 | | | Facebook | 737,943 | | | Twitter | 1,250,730 | | | YouTube | 533,660 | | Engagement | All | 75,243 | | | Facebook | 36,545 | | | Twitter | 32,599 | | | YouTube | 6,099 | | Website Clicks | All | 47,939 | | | Facebook | 35,863 | | | Twitter | 7,644 | | | YouTube | 4,432 | 5.6.16 Comparison between previous years for the social media campaign effectiveness This data shows that compared with previous years the paid advertising is becoming much more effective and driving significant increases in the metrics that matter. These results include video views up 97% year on year, the figures for engagement up 71% year on year and nearly 5 times as many website clicks compared to last year’s figures - all from a similar number of impressions. The increase in video views can be attributed to the greater volume of video content and the increased paid budget used to promote them. The engagement metrics are being driven by this larger paid reach as well as the creative way in which the content is driving users to engage. Website clicks have gone up significantly with the greater focus on driving people to the website landing pages in order for them to access more content and resources. 6. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Year-on-year ECSM grows and develops. As the targets for ECSM are refined; as the methodology is improved and, as partnerships are extended, more people are reached more precisely in a way that makes a difference to them – and the results can be measured more effectively through the evaluation questionnaires and other metrics. The goal of ECSM is to build a framework where cyber awareness in individuals and the “middleman” businesses and institutions that serve them leads everyone to behave in a cyber secure manner and to take cyber hygiene seriously. In addition to the conclusions included in each of the earlier sections above, we can summarise the implications of the most important findings as follows: - Member States highly value ECSM and see the potential impact of extending it beyond one month - Digital channels are proving to be powerful ways of reaching audiences at scale - Increased advertising budgets would mean that more people could be reached online - More MS need to use knowledge assessment methods to measure the results of ECSM at national level In terms of recommendations, some of the main ones emerging from the results are: - The ‘Human Factor’ in cybersecurity awareness shall be further explored in order to provide more clarity on what drives behaviour change of users - The evaluation framework shall provide the basis for comparable data throughout the years both in terms of metrics and tools - Physical in-person events are missed by many and their return to ECSM would be welcomed - Young people and cybersecurity experts are two audience segments that could be targeted more - NGOs could make valuable partners in the future - even more so than in 2021. These partnerships can provide the foundations, as well as the capability, for powerful interaction with users, the evolution of behaviour change and, ultimately, a more cyber secure world. ECSM 2021 has shown the important opportunities opened up by deepening the understanding of the needs of the target audience and how best to engage with them in order to facilitate positive behaviour change. Ultimately, by taking the results and learnings from ECSM 2021 on board for future editions of ECSM, our shared cyberspace will become a safer place for us all to exist and thrive. The on-going need for collaboration between Member States and organisations to create a wall of defence against increasing cybersecurity threats is clear. In that regard, European Cybersecurity Month 2021 can be considered a successful step on this ambitious journey.

Full CFA Infographic 3 published on landing page | | | We present here the full individual Campaign Stories from around Europe. **European Commission** **Cyber Aware Programme of the European Commission – EU Interinstitutional Cooperation** The European Commission (EC) is a high value target for cyber criminals and malicious actors interested in the information, financial and other assets it is managing. With the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of attacks and cyber incidents reported increased by 50% in 2020 and the trend continues in 2021. With the newly adapted hybrid mode of working, from the office and from home, and the acceleration of the digital transformation, the digital surface to protect has significantly expanded. In this challenging context, the corporate Cyber Aware programme organises activities and prepares and disseminates content to raise the awareness of the Commission staff on cybersecurity, all year round. In October, the European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM) is a crucial moment to promote the adoption of safe cyber practises. Our target audience includes more than 35,000 colleagues. Most of them are based in Brussels or Luxembourg, some of them are working from other EU Member States. Many colleagues are not yet aware of their role as defenders of the Commission assets. Some of them do not know how to recognize and report a phishing email, create a strong password, which tools are available to transfer big files, etc. The ECSM offered the ideal opportunity to pass the message on ‘how to be cybersecure from home’, extremely topical for the people (tele)working for the European Commission. The ‘first aid’ topic offered the opportunity to inform staff on what to do and who to address when they fall victim to cyber scams in any of the EU Member States. **Building the 2021 messages** The Cyber Aware programme manager actively contributed to the work of ENISA with the Commission and the Member States in selecting the themes and building the messages for ECSM 2021 as well as preparing the material for use during the Month. The activities started already in March 2021 and involved regular online meetings to discuss and decide on the themes, messages and visual representation, as well as the timing and organisation of the campaign throughout the month. **Kick-off** Since 2018, the ECSM is kickstarted by the EU Institutions, Bodies and Agencies (EUIBAs) with an interinstitutional kick-off meeting. In 2021 the Commission teamed up with the European Court of Auditors (ECA) for the organisation of this event on 29 September. The objective is to raise awareness on cybersecurity and promote cybersecurity across all EUIBAs, and also to provide tips on how to stay safe online, protect data and on how to best act in case of a cyber incident. Speakers from different EU institutions and agencies shared their knowledge and experience. Of particular interest is the women only panel which put the spotlight on the role that women can play in meeting the skills gap in cybersecurity and raising the bar for upskilling in the field. The event took place in a hybrid format, online and in Luxembourg at the European Court of Auditors, open to the general public via web streaming. The session is still available on [ECA’s website](https://www.europe.eu). **Activities** In the Commission, the Cyber Aware Programme geared up in delivering information sessions and management briefings to different Commission services, tailored to their specific needs. Live online training sessions were offered to all staff on the following topics: Are you Cyber Aware? Including a demo of a hack (in English and French), Mobile Cyber Hygiene and Audio and videoconferencing: your guide to safe and secure calls and meetings. As a special treat to celebrate the ECSM, each staff member received short, funny videos in their mailbox once a week. At the end of the month, a Cyber Aware Lunch Talk was organised with Stefania Chaplin, Solution Architect at Secure Code Warrior. The session was dedicated to Secure DevOps, the importance of change in the culture, and tips from the field on where to start. Just before and at the end of the ECSM, we executed a phishing campaign targeting all Commission staff to raise their awareness on the dangers of phishing emails. The campaign included tips on how to spot the red flags in phishing emails and was followed by an invitation to complete a training module on videoconferencing scams. **Spreading the message** Several Commissioners and Commission VIPs produced short video messages offering advice on cybersecurity. These were shared on social media at the launch of the ECSM on social media. Throughout the month and beyond, ENISA campaign’s material was published on and distributed via the different Commission communication channels. Niamh Martin and Patrik Pallagi’s stories and all other material was shared on the EC’s intranet page, in articles and newsletters. The ECSM 2021 Quiz and the Cyber First Aid Map are still promoted, they are invaluable support also after October. We engaged our “Cyber Ambassadors” to help spread cyber awareness across the Commission. The Cyber Ambassadors are participants of the Commission’s inhouse Cybersecurity Training Programme, a learning path that helps staff to shift careers towards cybersecurity. They completed their cyber missions with enthusiasm and dedication, preparing awareness sessions, email campaigns, articles, quizzes, and offering tips on how to remain cyber secure to their colleagues. Many other motivated and inspired colleagues helped spread the word across the institution, including the Local Informatics Security Officer (LISO) in every Commission service. We all share the same mission to establish a cybersecurity culture across the board in the organisation. **Interinstitutional coordination and cooperation** Since 2020 European Institutions, Bodies and Agencies (EUIBAs) are seeking closer cooperation and exchange in the area of cybersecurity in the Cybersecurity Subgroup of the Interinstitutional Committee on Digital Transformation (ICDT). In this Subgroup, a Task Force (TF5) is dedicated to the area of cybersecurity awareness raising. The 11 EUIBAs collaborating in TF5 focus on sharing resources, information, knowledge, experience and best practises. This provided ENISA with an excellent platform to share with the community of EUIBAs the information about the preparatory activities for the ECSM and it gave the EUIBAs an early insight in and access to the promotional material and planning of activities during the ECSM. The parties involved collaborated closely for the preparation, organisation and promotion of activities and events across EUIBAs for the ECSM, hence ensuring a spreading of messages across organisations and providing their staff the opportunity to access a wider array of information and events. As part of the TF5 work plan for 2022, increased coordination and preparation of joint activities for the ECSM is foreseen, including an interinstitutional kick-off event for the ECSM, a yearly tradition to continue. **Result** During the ECSM, we reached out to many colleagues in the European Commission, who are now more aware about safe practises and have received information to efficiently prevent and react to a cyber attack, particularly related to phishing emails. We observed a high number of participants in our live online sessions and events and a big increase in the number of visits to the Commission internal Cybersecurity Portal. The Cyber Aware Programme can count on a network of motivated advocates and Cyber ambassadors across the institution to help spread the messages. The ECSM gave also a big boost to the interinstitutional cooperation in the area of cybersecurity awareness raising. For the first time so many different EUIBAs received early information and access to the ECSM resources and planning thanks to the platform for exchange and cooperation provided by the Task Force dedicated to awareness raising across EUIBAs. **Conclusion** Neither citizens nor staff members of organisations and companies should be left alone when dealing with cybersecurity. Staff should have regular access to training sessions and awareness raising materials to confront the increasing number of cyber attacks, which become more and more sophisticated and oftentimes use social engineering techniques. The activities and networks deployed by the European Commission Cyber Aware Programme are maintained throughout the year and are an excellent base from which to launch a more intense campaign of activities, events and messages which we look forward to start preparing early 2022, to be launched during ECSM 2022. Campaign Visuals Throughout the Month, the visual materials provided by ENISA were used.

Through the years, in sync with ESCM, we focused on different topics but also had a national focus on different cybersecurity themes. We’ve managed to build some long term partnerships for this campaign – GDBOP (Chief Directorate for Fight against Organised Crime) and Sofia Municipality (Metropoliten) are both our long term partners in raising awareness and campaign messages. Each year we aim to upgrade the campaign with new partnerships by reaching out to different organisations in the NGO sector, academia, business and other institutions. Following the guidelines for this year’s campaign, SEGA has, for the first time, invited popular Bulgarian actors to become ambassadors of the campaign. Alexandra Sarchadzhieva and Kitodar Todorov, are Bulgarian actors, who are very recognizable from the stage and screen but also have a lot of followers online. Throughout the month they both shared various messages, infographics and advice from the campaign on their social media accounts; they were moderators in discussions on the topic of cybersecurity; they made video messages for their audience; and invited interesting guest experts to discuss cybersecurity issues. The partnership with our ambassadors was very successful. With the help of their social media presence we managed to reach a large and extremely diverse audience and because they themselves were not experts in the field of cybersecurity, they managed to “take a journey” through the topic and the advice they shared made these topics more understandable for people. Due to the pandemic, SEGA-organised events took place mainly online as webinars where different aspects of cybersecurity and different points of view were presented and considered. In the end the average consumer and citizen received useful advice for their safe online presence. As ECSM campaign coordinator for Bulgaria, I believe our efforts to improve information on cybersecurity practises have had the desired impact. Information and awareness is definitely a prerequisite to changing behaviour but more is needed to build up good online habits and cyber culture. This is why such campaigns have to be implemented in conjunction with other strategies throughout the year, something we are considering. We believe that a winning strategy going forward would include the concept of learning by doing; show cases from real life situations; continually supplying people with real information on trends; and teaching them basic terminology and practises. Problem Bulgarian cyberspace does not differ greatly from its European counterparts and as such it has similar problems. Of course, it has its idiosyncrasies, which alongside the main trends, we have tried to reflect on this year. In the last 5 years internet usage in Bulgaria has increased, and during this period the number of mobile broadband users has quadrupled. The positive trend of penetration and development of Internet access and related technologies creates a number of challenges around the lack of skills for using digital technologies and exposes Bulgarian citizens to unknown risks and threats. The latter includes: threats to physical safety, especially for children and seniors, threats to privacy and personal information, card theft and payment fraud, etc. Through the experience SEGA gained from its core mission and main duties, and having analysed all the various data available we concluded that this year the campaign should focus on a few specific issues: - Basic steps in cybersecurity for small and medium enterprises (SME), which are essentially the backbone of Bulgarian (and European) economy. SMEs are subjected to the same cyber risks as bigger companies but often do not have the human and financial resources to counter the cyberattacks. At the same time, they often lack information on this topic. - Cybersecurity in municipalities. The difficulty and lack of (human) capacity to cover and execute the minimum requirements for network and information security. - Addressing the lack of experts in cybersecurity and IT. - The necessity to encourage the efforts in our country to join international initiatives and projects, as well as to upgrade the interinstitutional interaction. - The need for general information and awareness. Resolution Cybersecurity in SMEs A joint online poll was created among SMEs together with the Bulgarian Small and Medium Enterprises Promotion Agency. Its main goal was to establish the general level of awareness and preparedness in the field of cybersecurity. After that, we organised an online meeting in which the poll results were presented, experts commented on the data and gave advice. At the end of the campaign, all companies that participated in the poll were given the opportunity to receive a personal consultation via telephone or in an online meeting with cybersecurity experts. Cybersecurity in Municipalities This topic was presented in an online meeting with SEGA experts, as well as with guests from the two biggest municipalities in the country - Sofia Municipality and Plovdiv Municipality. The discussion focused on difficulties, challenges, possible solutions and good practises, as well as on the capabilities for technical and expert help, which the municipalities can receive from SEGA and the central government; contact points, training opportunities and usage of joint resources were also presented. The Lack of Experts in Cybersecurity and IT We organised a series of online meetings which dealt with different aspects of the problem. Opportunities for education and career advancement were discussed with representatives of universities, offering master courses and educational programs. An NGO, representing a large portion of the IT community in the country presented an initiative of its own, in which independent IT experts, engaged in all sectors of the state. We also organised a special event, dedicated to women in cybersecurity and IT. The event was moderated by one of our ambassadors, a popular Bulgarian actress. We wanted to address the necessity of having more women pursue a career in the digital world and to smash the stereotype that this is "a man's world". We began with the inspiring story of Ada Lovelace, considered by many to be the first programmer in the world and we presented the personal stories of three successful women from the SEGA team, who chose a career in technology and we hope that we have inspired other women to pursue a career in this field. This topic got really positive feedback. Bulgaria leads in a very positive statistic in Europe - the ratio of men and women working in tech. This trend needs to be encouraged and supported. International Initiatives and Projects SEGA took part in the realisation of "InfoSec SEE 2021 Cybersecurity Resilience and Adaptation". This is the largest conference dedicated to cybersecurity in the Balkans. There, we presented the updated National Cybersecurity Strategy, the updated Road Map, which accompanies it, as well as guidelines for developing an Integrated National System for cybersecurity. We organised an online conversation with experts, where we presented four EU projects ECHO, CS4E, CONCORDIA, and SPARTA. A meeting between the people occupying the position of the National Coordinator for cybersecurity occurred for the first time. The current one being the chairman of SEGA. He and his three predecessors exchanged ideas and experience and agreed on the message that cybersecurity requires continuity, group decisions, cooperation and information sharing. World, European and national cybersecurity issues were discussed and a clear message was sent to society that good cyberculture must be a part of our everyday habits and we must keep up a certain cyber "hygiene". General Information and Awareness An online meeting was conducted in which experts commented on the most common cyberattacks during the Pandemic. We organised a meeting with ethical hackers, who told us more about that profession. What their role is, what techniques they use and when we can seek help from them. They also demonstrated hacker techniques live on-air and gave advice to citizens. Many short videos were made with the ambassadors, who also hosted events with experts on their social media channels. We created extra infographics and quizzes in addition to those supplied by ENISA, and we developed daily online content for the social media accounts of SEGA. We hosted a meeting with the topic "Cybersecurity for children and parents". Bulgarian children spent a lot more time online compared to their peers in the EU. Bulgarian parents allow their children to go online as early as the age of three. The event addressed: the need for every child to be protected in the digital world, that digital and cyberculture must be nourished and encouraged throughout our whole lives and that this is a process in which school and institutions are not the only ones responsible; parents also have an important place in this process. Result For the ECSM 2021 campaign, the State e-Government Agency (SEGA): - Organised 13 online events, aimed at specific target audiences. - We achieved an average viewership of 600 people per video meeting, with views ranging from 200 to 1,700 viewers. - We introduced people to some essential terms, some basic and some advanced advice and tips on how to be secure online. - In cooperation with Sofia Metropoliten, the campaign videos were shown during the entire month of October, in all metro stations, 30 times a day, thus reaching a wide range of the public. - We managed to get a lot of interest and positive feedback from a large portion of our audience. - We created a special section on SEGA’s website, dedicated to the campaign, as well as an interactive calendar which included all the events and all the presentations of guests and organisations. We also managed to create a special section from where anyone can download and use any of the campaign materials – videos, infographics, etc. - We produced a special practical brochure, dedicated to one of the most common cyberattacks - ransomware. The campaign attracted significant interest and a large new audience for our Facebook page - every week we registered a rise of approx. 100 new followers. **Conclusion** Generally, citizens and businesses demonstrated interest towards the topics and discussions that SEGA had presented throughout the ECSM campaign. We believe that the interesting experts, ambassadors and guests, as well as the talk-show format chosen for our meetings and conversations became very appealing and watchable for our audience. This shows that as long as there is an on-going discussion of cybersecurity risks and awareness, the target audience will eventually adopt cybersecurity advice as an essential part of their online presence and behaviour. **Campaign Visuals** **FACEBOOK POSTS:** Post about the kick-off event for the ESCM-2021 30.10.2021 – COUNTDOWN – 1 day left “Be cyber smart, create strong passwords for each of your accounts.” ONE DAY till the start of the “European Cybersecurity Month 2021” Post with interactive calendar – it was updated several times afterwards with more events added to it.

There are two social media posts related to topics of catphishing / scam and malware distribution: The landing page for social media posts is [https://naivci.hr/#Aktivnosti](https://naivci.hr/#Aktivnosti) where interactive content is available for the general public. There are ten different activities in the form of games and quizzes. Covered topics are: Cybersecurity fun facts, memory games on cybersecurity, key terms like digital footprint, backup, passphrase, netiquette, CSIRT, cyber hygiene, and games on cybersecurity threats such as malware, phishing, social engineering, spam, data breach, hacker. There are also tests on phishing e-mail and cyber hygiene. Topics Topics covered during ECSM 2021 were digital footprint, cyber hygiene, netiquette, first aid for cybersecurity victims, safe remote work and education. Highlights of ECSM 2021 were: - **Hacknite 2.0** – second edition of 48-hour CTF competition for highschool students, this year we had 51 teams with 155 players (https://www.cert.hr/prijavite-se-na-natjecanje-hacknite-2-0/, https://www.cert.hr/pobjednici-hacknite-hr-2-0-upoznajmo-tim-gospoda/), its goal was to promote cybersecurity among teenagers, by applying technical knowledge in cryptography, malware analysis, steganography etc. - **Panel discussion "How susceptible are we to manipulation?"** - it took place in early November, people participated from the Faculty of Law, Croatian Banking Association, private cybersecurity firm Diverto, Ministry of the Interior and Croatian National CERT. The topics of the discussion were social engineering, cyber hygiene and raising security awareness. - Invitation: https://www.cert.hr/panel-rasprava-koliko-smo-podlozni-manipulaciji/ - Conclusions: https://www.cert.hr/odrzana-panel-rasprava-koliko-smo-podlozni-manipulaciji/ - Promo educational materials: - https://www.cert.hr/savjeti-za-zastitu-na-internetu/ - https://www.cert.hr/sto-uciniti-ako-nam-netko-preuzme-virtualni-identitet/ - https://www.cert.hr/savjeti-za-zastitu-racuna-na-drustvenim-mrezama/ - https://www.cert.hr/sto-uciniti-ako-su-vam-ukradeni-podaci-o-kreditnoj-kartici-ili-bankovni-podaci/ Cyprus Exposition In the fast-growing technological world that we live in today, everyone, regardless of their age, has at least one interaction with technology and the internet a day. That may be for reading the news, reading an email, communicating with family, ordering food, purchasing goods and so on. It is of a great importance to educate as many people as possible and make them aware of the dangers that technology and the internet hold for them even while doing the simplest tasks, like browsing the internet. On a small island like Cyprus, there was a need to relay this message to all citizens and make them aware of the different ways they can protect themselves; what to look out for and what to avoid, especially nowadays when the pandemic is being used as the main theme for phishing campaigns. Problem In order to make sure that we reached as many people as possible we needed to involve as many institutions as possible; the academic community; the private sector; the public sector; the press; and use any social media available to the organisation to promote all the material and events surrounding cybersecurity month. Resolution Alongside the material created by the ECSM, we arranged events with the academic community which allowed us to reach as many students as possible and we involved private sector businesses in order to involve as many private sector employees as possible. Furthermore, we posted the infographics, videos and material made available to us using the social media channels of the organisation, this allowed us to reach as many people as possible regardless of age group. Result Using the material and events of the 2021 ECSM campaign we managed to reach many more people than during other months or in previous years. This can be verified by the influx of reports we got from citizens regarding suspicious emails, suspicious links and general enquiries regarding cybersecurity since the campaign ran. Conclusion It is clear from campaigns like ECSM and other cybersecurity related awareness campaigns that the safety of cyberspace for any member state starts with its citizens.

Czech Republic Exposition Digital technologies are an integral part of our lives. Digital technologies allow us to do things that were unthinkable just ten years ago and they give us access to an enormous amount of knowledge. The coronavirus pandemic has accelerated this digital transformation, with a sudden and large-scale move to teleworking; the use of digital services in hospitals, laboratories and government services; and the explosion in online schooling. However this trend brings with it not only an increase in the number of end users, but also the threats to which they are exposed. Problem The National Cyber Security Strategy of the Czech Republic 2021 – 2025 defines poor digital hygiene as a key issue. Cybersecurity tools on their own are not sufficient protection against today’s many threats. There is a need to integrate cybersecurity at all levels of the education system and to support educational activities in the field of cybersecurity. Education is one of the most important investments a country can make in its future. Resolution The National Cyber and Information Security Agency (NUKIB) is the central administrative body for cybersecurity, including the protection of classified information in information and communication systems and cryptographic protection. We have been providing education to diverse target groups for a long time. One of these groups are children. We decided to focus this year’s campaign on this group. Children over the age of 13 can follow our education Instagram @petr.vytrzny. Petr Vytrzny is a comic-book character who shares fun facts from the world of digital technology and cybersecurity. We decided to use this social media to share the ECSM campaign. We prepared a series of posts based on ECSM’s materials. The most important thing was to prepare eye-catching pictures. Result Raising awareness of cybersecurity issues is our long-term goal. There are many ways to reach this goal. Today, children spend a lot of time on social media channels. Many children ask for advice there and because of this, social media channels are a great tool for informal education. The ECSM campaign provided a lot of tips to end users. Part of the campaign was topics we focus less on, for example, risky e-shops. Thanks to this we were able to provide followers with new content. We also challenged followers to action. ECSM posts have on average more likes than others. The campaign also supported an important aspect of cybersecurity - international cooperation. Conclusion Social media helps us to stay in touch with children. It is important to think about what information you want to share and what is the best method. It’s getting harder and harder to get the attention of followers. Therefore, information should be short. It is also important to complete the posts with eye-catching pictures. Children, especially, attach great importance to the visual side of communication. It is our message and challenge for next year’s campaign too. The post about how children can provide support to grandparents with their social media. The post about how you can protect your smart home. The post about first aid when your social media account has been hacked. Estonia This year the ECSM coincided with Estonian local municipalities elections on October 18th. Since we here in Estonia are able to vote online (digital i-voting), our organisation decided to focus on election security and what voters themselves can do to keep themselves safe when voting online. This meant that we took part in the European cybersecurity month campaign by distributing the two videos and infographics on our Facebook page and retweeting ECSM materials on our Twitter account. No additional ECSM-related events were organised by us, but everywhere we talked about election cybersecurity, we emphasised that October is the cybersecurity month and this is why we call on all voters to be safe online when they vote. Next year we will definitely work more towards engaging with other organisations and put up some events to celebrate ECSM. All the materials were useful and great and we were able to share those on our social media to remind people that ENISA is still promoting this all around Europe with our partners in other member states. Finland Exposition In Finland, NCSC-FI, ran the ECSM campaign on social media and on our website. The website, materials and social media posts were published in Finnish, Swedish and English. Apart from two short videos and a few online articles we used materials produced by ENISA/ECSM only. Website: https://www.kyberturvallisuuskeskus.fi/fi/euroopan-kyberturvallisuuskuukausi-European-cyber-security-month/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CERTFI Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NCSC.FI/ We published the ECSM cyber tips and advice (infographics and videos) on our website and shared them via our social media channels in Twitter and Facebook. We uploaded the videos and published them on YouTube. The main cyber issues or needs in Finland are mainly the same as anywhere else in Europe. From our point of view phishing is the biggest cyber risk that the average Finnish citizen faces. Problem At the moment phishing and stealing of online banking credentials cause the main problems among citizens. People have lost millions of euros to cyber criminals. Criminals use fraudulent e-mails and text messages. Senior citizens aged 70 -79 are most vulnerable target group for these scams. https://www.kyberturvallisuuskeskus.fi/en/fraudsters-stealing-banking-credentials-fake-my-kanta-pages-and-suomifi-messages During the fall of 2021 NCSC-FI noticed that incident reports concerning hacked social media accounts had increased. Resolution ECSM themes Being cyber secure from home, the Cyber First Aid Kit, and the materials produced, covered our needs very well. Our ECSM campaign's top 2 tweets concerned the topics Has your social media account been hacked? and Have your credit card or banking details been stolen? Result We did our best with the materials provided and the resources we had. However the followers of NCSC-FI's social media channels are mostly cyber aware men, not for example the elderly or women aged 18 to 65 who are not cyber orientated. These are the people who need cyber aid the most and the ones we should reach. Facebook and Instagram would work best if we had paid campaign posts on Facebook or a specific campaign with social media influencers on Instagram. The best thing about ECSM campaign is that it brings more materials - tips and advice for everyday cyber life - to our website. Those materials (along with the guidance produced by NCSC-FI) can be shared by our ministry, other state offices and other organisations we work closely with. We believe that we reached at least active elderly people who use internet and IoT devices. We asked The Finnish Association for the Welfare of Older People to be a write an article on our website. We hope that it gave us new audiences and raised cyber awareness among that target group at least a little. https://www.kyberturvallisuuskeskus.fi/en/news/guest-writer-updates-under-control-seniorsurf-helps-elderly-go-digital We also published a press release about the ECSM 2021 campaign. Our news monitoring picked up a few articles about cybersecurity month and top cyber tips (with links to NCSC-FI's website). **Conclusion** We should keep ECSM going. Many people already know that October is Cybersecurity Month and you should #ThinkB4UClick. Long term and persistent campaigning must and will bring results. It could be better if we focused on fewer materials. (After the pandemic) TV, newspapers and ads for example in public transport could bring new audiences to ECSM. We also need a good budget and decent resources. **Campaign Visuals** Here are a couple of clips from our most liked ECSM tweets and our campaign website. This tweet with a short video started the CFA weeks. https://twitter.com/CERTFI/status/1450028690407055362 This is the Finnish version of the theme “Has your social media account been hacked?” https://twitter.com/CERTFI/status/1450730014475960321 And finally here’s a clip from our ECSM campaign website https://www.kyberturvallisuuskeskus.fi/en/european-cyber-security-month Greece Exposition Now, more than ever, education on digital security is key for citizens to identify risks and react effectively to cyber threats. In Greece the Greek Safer Internet Centre has undertaken the role of the country coordinator of the European Cybersecurity Month of ENISA. The Centre in its current form was launched in July 2016 under the auspices of the FORTH, in particular the Institute of Computer Science. It provides information, assistance and support to young and adult internet users by developing three distinct pillars: - The SaferInternet4Kids.gr portal, where one can get informed and learn more about the safe use of the Internet, social networks and download resources. - The Help-line, where qualified psychologists provide support and advice on issues related to online social-emotional difficulties, - The Hotline Safeline, which receives reports about illegal use of the Internet and works with both the Greek Police and EUROPOL through European Agency INHOPE. Problem In today’s digital world it is important to be digitally literate and to always think one-step ahead when utilising the net. What’s more, the COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the importance of cybersecurity. Resolution Awareness raising through different campaigns. Specifically ECSM is the European Union’s annual awareness raising campaign dedicated to promoting cybersecurity among citizens and organisations, providing up-to-date security information through education and sharing of best practises. Result The Greek Safer Internet Centre has been very active in the ECSM Campaign 2021. The results of this year’s campaign are the following: - The Greek SIC, together with the Hellenic Cybersecurity Authority, produced two videos. One about Passwords https://saferinternet4kids.gr/video/εστιές-κρυπτο-πασσώδεις/ and one about Scams https://saferinternet4kids.gr/video/smishing/ - It organised two webinars about cybersecurity with 350 high school students in each session. - It made a successful online campaign with the materials that ENISA produced for the themes “Being Cyber Secure from Home” and “First Aid”. - The Greek SIC recruited four ECSM Ambassadors. The Greek School Network https://www.sch.gr/, NGO Together for Children https://mazigiatopaidi.gr/, many High Schools from Greece (1st High School of Zografou, etc) and the National Cybersecurity Authority. - It organised a Facebook Live event on the 22 of October, with main guest the Secretary General of Telecommunications & Posts at Government of the Hellenic Republic - Ministry of Digital Governance, Dr. Athanasios Staveris, where he gave a talk about cybersecurity and Awareness raising in Greece. 1,164 people were reached. https://www.facebook.com/events/400784481518410 Campaign Visuals Figure 1 Live Event Poster Figure 2 Video about Passwords Figure 3 video about Smishing Figure 4 Presentation slide from webinars Hungary Exposition Year by year in Hungary more and more organisations join the ECSM campaign. The common effort of these organisations, using continuous and clear communication tools, raises awareness of citizens. Due to the pandemic, the 2020 events were mainly organised online or remotely but this year, thanks to the lifting of the most severe restrictions, hybrid events did take place. Problem The main problem was the uncertainty caused by the pandemic. Thanks to this situation most of the organisations waited a lot before advertising their events, conferences, workshops, etc. Due to this lag the target audience was not fully reached. Resolution The National Cyber Security Centre (national ECSM coordinator) put emphasis on organising those events which have been working well for years now, without putting new initiatives in the background. It was essential to build on well-functioning initiatives to have something sure in this uncertain pandemic situation. It should be underlined that the NCSC prepared and held events focusing on younger audiences (e.g.: The IT Security Short Movie of the Year, Hungarian Cyber Security Challenge) in order to reach a broader audience (parents, friends, teachers, etc.) through the kids. Result Thanks to the efforts made by the NCSC better events were organized with more professional focus, and we could tell that it was not just the ‘hardcore professionals’ gathered together but also new faces interested in cybersecurity. Conclusion This year, we can see more clearly now (and of course it is clearer for a broader audience) that cybersecurity is not just our common interest but our common responsibility. Campaign Visuals ECSM campaign poster Italy Exposition We focused our work on the ECSM campaign and its purposes to make colleagues and partners aware of cyber threats and of cyber attacks. The pandemic, which we are all facing, has increased the use of the internet as well as different services provided online. Everyone must be protected and helped by reaching out first to national services and must protect her/himself from cyber attacks. Our objective was to use the ECSM campaign materials in the best possible way in order to raise the awareness of all stakeholders. Problem We immediately appreciated the materials proposed. Therefore, our first question was how to use ECSM campaign materials to achieve our objectives and how and when to share the materials within our organisation. Resolution We were informed the materials would have been distributed among countries members by respecting a schedule. Therefore, we decided to share our objectives with our colleagues in the Communication Dept. By working together, we realised that the materials were very impactful and had a high potential to make our stakeholders aware of the purposes of the ECSM campaign. Result The materials were regularly shared on the website of our Directorate-General for Communications Technologies and Information Security. Our stakeholders appreciated the video uploaded on our YouTube channel. Several colleagues were impressed by the high potential of the materials shared and they used the material with their families, friends and personal contacts. Conclusion We were able to achieve our objectives. By working together we raised awareness both for ourselves and for several stakeholders, that everyone needs to be cyber secure from home and everyone can count on cyber first aid. Luxembourg Exposition Background Raising Cybersecurity awareness has been on the agenda in Luxembourg for over 20 years, starting at the ministry of the Economy when in 2000, the amateur virus 'I love you' (a malicious file attached to an email with 'I love you' in the subject) hit the world. Realising the new and huge need of teaching cyber risk awareness to internet users, a couple of IT experts of the information security service within the ministry of the Economy started off, preparing sessions for civil servants as well as company employees. Thanks to the cooperation with the Luxembourg Ministry of Education, Children and Youth these classes also became accessible to the general public and primary schools. The latter grew into a dedicated initiative coordinated by the National Youth Service, known as BEE SECURE. The former grew into a grouping of economic interests known under SECURITYMADEIN.LU, representing today the national Cybersecurity Agency for the Luxembourg Economy and Municipalities. As part of the Agency's continuous developments, the newly created CYBERSECURITY LUXEMBOURG, represents the national cybersecurity portal, gathering all public and private cybersecurity actors. When, in 2012, the Commission and ENISA decided to dedicate the month of October to awareness raising, it seemed natural to combine, where possible, that information into already existing awareness raising efforts undertaken by BEE SECURE for the general public and by SECURITYMADEIN.LU for the more business-related audience. It was also a straightforward solution to participate locally in the ECSM with little budget or human resources. Problem With the new mandate for ENISA in 2019/20, the mission and scope of the ECSM have grown to a bigger level, and the campaign management changed accordingly: the target group 'citizen/consumer' has come more into the focus; a promotional kit is available, clips and infographics have improved; a social media strategy has been developed, the quiz renewed, national ECSM ambassadors are being identified; the campaign evaluation scheme is being re-framed. Luxembourg proves a strong commitment to 'cybersecurity awareness' year-long thanks to the national Cybersecurity Agency and the month of October is a visible moment of these efforts for the local cybersecurity stakeholders who contribute to the Luxembourg Cybersecurity Week. Nevertheless, with the professionalisation of the ECSM at European level, some adjustments can be undertaken locally to reflect the growing importance of the campaign and its material. Resolution 2021 is a transition year; changes at local level may take another couple of years. For the time being, local ECSM campaign issues were addressed as follows: - Visibility of the local ECSM opening and closing, through local press releases on the ministry’s news home page. - ECSM mentioned in ministerial speeches during October - Dedicated place for the ECSM on the ‘Luxembourg Cybersecurity Week’ as part of the CYBERSECURITY LUXEMBOURG platform. The platform is work in progress; an ‘EU’ section is being prepared. - With regards to languages: RESTENA Foundation partnered with the ‘Géant’ association, the collaboration of European national research and education networks, and within that framework, some information in Luxembourgish was made available. Result The Luxembourg Cybersecurity Week (CSWL) organised by the Cybersecurity Luxembourg ecosystem took place successfully between the 18th and 28th of October, featuring more than twenty events, mostly online, gathering a total of over 1000 participants. 6 rewards were distributed, celebrating 7 individuals or organisations for their contribution to cybersecurity during the closing Gala. CSWL is an event well-known by the public, and discussions taking place here often lead to partnerships and common projects. This year a delegation from France and Germany were invited to discuss common issues and exchange best practises in cybersecurity. Synergies have been initiated and will be further developed between national and international players/partners. Furthermore, the Gala award winners act as ambassadors all year long for how to do ‘IT in the right way’, which is inspiring for those working in the field, and those considering a career path in cyber. The European Consumer Centre Luxembourg (CECL) was also part of the October activities, with an inspiring week on ‘aspects of European consumer law’. Addressing students, teachers and the public at large, BEE SECURE launched its annual campaign ‘Super User How connected are you’. It is too early to talk about results, but here also it is a well-established initiative, answering the information needs of the general public. Cyberday.lu was a successful event bringing together university students, experts and researchers. This event contributed to the value of sharing problems and lessons learnt from cyber risks. It also promotes the value of undertaking studies in cybersecurity. **Conclusion** While at national level local initiatives in the field of awareness raising were running before ECSM was created, the fact that the ECSM now has a fully-fledged campaign is certainly an advantage to better reach the user with a coordinated European message. Cybersecurity is a shared responsibility and at national level we will continue to support the ECSM. **Some campaign visuals:** CYBERSECURITY Luxembourg Newsletter visual: Banners used on cybersecurity.lu website: Dedicated slider on the homepage with links to ECSM website & cswl.lu: ECSM dedicated banner on the events page: October stands for the European Cyber Security Month, the EU’s annual campaign dedicated to promoting cybersecurity. Cybersecurity week Luxembourg visual: Gala Awards Night visual: Cyberday.lu by RESTENA Foundation: Malta Exposition As our lifestyle constantly evolves, the necessity to embrace technology has increased in due course. This has brought up new challenges and increased the probability of humans being more susceptible to cyber criminals and their tactics. One of the main factors was the COVID-19 pandemic which rapidly endorsed the need for uptake. Accordingly, we have seen multiple types of attacks, namely supply chain attacks, ransomware, phishing, spoofing, and credential theft. For this reason, Cyber Security Malta engaged in a series of awareness campaigns to educate the general public how to detect and react to cyber-attacks. Problem Attacks are constantly evolving and Malta is a target too. There is a shortage of platforms where communities, mainly, techies and executives, can discuss cybersecurity matters, seek advice or knowledge of how certain attacks can be prevented or mitigated. Besides the known attacks that have impacted Europe, around August multiple entities and non-governmental organisations were the main targets of spoofing attacks. Locally, media houses and news agencies had their websites impersonated with the aim of spreading fake, misleading news about current affairs in Malta. Resolution The national cybersecurity conference aimed to address different dilemmas and cybersecurity concerns both from a technical and an executive perspective. For this reason, national and world-renowned speakers approached these concerns with their years of experience, knowledge, and research in the field by participating in panel discussions, delivering presentations and demonstrations. The conference can be accessed all throughout the year by visiting and registering: cyber ROOT 21 Registration In addition, Cyber Security Malta intensified its awareness and education campaign to the general public by participating in a number of television programmes, radio shows, news features, and newspaper articles, apart from social media. For the month of October, Cyber Security Malta tackled the fake news subject by utilising a renowned Maltese personality and a Maltese police inspector within the Cyber Crime Unit, who are coincidentally, twin brothers. Result This year’s cybersecurity conference, although presented in the form of a webinar, saw an increase in the number of attendees and participation throughout the conference. Exposure has been given to Cyber Security Malta on various platforms, namely, TV, radio, online portals, and traditional newspapers as well as on social media. Given the reach and query for assistance received, the awareness of the general public was raised and there is the desire for more information. Conclusion Every campaign is unique. Campaigns should focus on the demand that is needed in each member state, and engagement should be throughout the year not just during the month of October for cybersecurity month.

Cyber spoofing tactics, techniques and procedures Throughout the years, different Maltese entities were targeted, amongst whom, the Prime Ministers, Leaders, Presidents, and other high-level governmental organizations. It is therefore important for everyone to understand what spoofing is, how it works, and why one might have, the different forms of spoofing, and how to deal with digitally spoofed content. A common term within the cyber security domain is when an individual or entity pretends someone or something else to gain an advantage. Spoofing typically consists of two main elements: the technical aspect (such as email spoofing) and the social engineering aspect (such as phishing). One can take action against a specific request, such as a request from the pastor. An example that every one might be familiar with is an email that appears to come from a trusted source, such as an employer requesting a payment or software update for an employee. Impostors utilize techniques like these to trick their victims into taking actions that may raise alarm or suspicion. Such activity sometimes requires a certain level of technical complexity. But not all spoofing attacks use social engineering techniques and primarily rely on content that could potentially instill a sense of urgency, such as fake news as well as destabilization. Apart from using social tactics, spoofing can also be done irrespective of this, a spoofing attack can be purely technical in nature. Some of the known consequences of spoofing include digital identities, known as credential theft, the theft of personal information, impersonation in malware attacks, and unauthorized access to unauthenticated systems as well as ransomware and勒索软件 attacks. Different types of spoofing attacks exist. The most common ones are email spoofing, as mentioned above, websites, phone calls and text messages. The email spoofing attack can occur in three different formats. The first format is when a malicious email is sent with a forged content, known as the email headers and domain name, which resembles the email address. The second type of email spoofing attack is when the email is sent from a spoofed email through unsolicited emails. The third type, most users take this at face value, being that the email content is quite common. Some common reasons for the email content vary from these being from a trusted source, such as seeking permission to access a particular system. To a certain extent, spoofed emails might even contain attachments that may lead to the installation of malware such as Virus or Trojans. This type of attack can easily spread across all the entire network. The Website spoofing attack occurs when a scammer creates a website that resembles an authentic and legitimate website to access target websites. Some common reasons for this type of attack, such as the hacker’s favourite lists, is that they can steal login credentials as well as to drop malware onto the victim’s computers. The phone call spoofing attack, also known as Caller ID spoofing, is when a scammer intentionally forge the caller ID details so that the victim does not know that a local number is calling them. This is done to trick the victim into answering the call. In such type of spoofing, a VoIP service provider or a VoIP number is used. This will allow scammers to change the caller ID to any caller ID of their choice. The victim will not know that they obtain sensitive information including their bank account once the phone call is answered. The Text message spoofing attack, also known as SMS-spoofing, is when the sender of a text message crafts a message that mimics the look of a trusted, reliable displayed sender information. This is done to lure the victim to initiate business or a government transaction. Scammers use such SMS to deliver links that lead to phishing sites, which then spread false news as well as other unwanted content. Although spoofing attacks are an issue, there are some measures that can be taken. Using privacy tools may help to minimize the damage that can be caused. The following Do’s and Don’ts can help in this regard: **Don’ts** - Do not click on links or open attachments from unfamiliar sources. - Do not answer emails or calls from unrecognized senders. - Do not share your personal information online. **Do’s** - Where possible, set up two-factor authentication. - Keep your privacy settings. - Review your online privacy settings. - Keep your network and software up-to-date. As a final remark we advise that you should never respond to messages with poor spelling or grammar. If the message looks too good to be true, it probably is. Images or missing content, could be a sign of a spoofing attack. These should be ignored or verified by contacting the person reported to the respective authorities.

Portugal Exposition Portugal still has insufficient results in terms of attitudes and behaviours towards cybersecurity, especially considering the best practises of cyber-hygiene. This conclusion has been reached in several reports produced by the Cybersecurity Observatory of the Portuguese National Cybersecurity Centre. As a result of this, a social network campaign was developed using traditional and popular sayings, or proverbs, that are very common in the way people talk with each other in everyday life. Each one of these proverbs was articulated with a specific cyber-hygiene practice. For instance, one popular saying in Portugal is “In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king”. In the campaign, the following advice was added to this proverb: “read your emails carefully, do not click on unknown attachments or links”. By doing so, it was possible to, in a simple and direct manner, make a relation between what people know (the proverb) and what they must learn (cyber-hygiene practises). That was very efficient in terms of reactions. Graphically the content had a background of traditional Portuguese tiles, stressing the popular and traditional elements of the message, and communicating with all generations. The name of the campaign was “In the cybersecurity month, popular wisdom might help”. Problem The insufficient results in terms of attitudes and behaviours towards cybersecurity in Portugal, especially considering the data produced by the Cybersecurity Observatory of the Portuguese National Cybersecurity Centre: https://www.cncc.gov.pt/pt/observatorio/ Resolution The campaign was launched in several social networks, and distributed by different stakeholders, who helped CNCS in the dissemination of this content in their own social networks. Some of these proverbs were also inscribed on tiles and offered in CNCS’ annual conference C-Days. In terms of communication, the results were very good: the reactions, the interactions, and the audience numbers. Result Although there were very good results in terms of communication, we still must make a deeper analysis of the impact on citizen’s behaviour, especially if we want to establish a correlation between specific campaigns and behavioural change. Next year we plan to develop research about the impact of the awareness and training strategies and content on society. This work will be developed under the scope of the CNCS’s Cybersecurity Observatory. Conclusion It is important to create clear messages that highlight what to do, instead of just promoting fear in people. It is also very important to relate the message to prior knowledge people have about other subjects, to help in the interpretation and assimilation of the message. In the future, we must make a deeper analysis of the impact on behaviour, establishing a correlation between specific campaigns and behavioural change. “Pagar e morrer são a última coisa a fazer.” NÃO CONTRIBUA PARA O CRIME INFORMÁTICO.

Romania Exposition Online Safety campaign with Romanian Police and Romanian Banking Association In Romania we focussed the ECSM 2021 around the two themes voted at EU level – First Aid to Cybersecurity and Working from Home, while touching on the most pressing types of attacks that target common users – scams. For this, together with the Romanian Police and Romanian Banking Association we launched a national online safety campaign, which is actually an extension of a previous campaign for marketplace platforms’ clients. We launched a website for this https://sigurantaonline.ro, where users can educate themselves on the most common scams. We also launched a quiz here, so that visitors can test their ability to detect such scams and train themselves on how to spot them. Every question from the quiz has a scam sample or a legitimate message and the user has to spot which one is which. If the answer is wrong, they will be able to spot the signs that would’ve raised questions otherwise, if they were paying enough attention. This campaign was supported through mainstream media in Romania and was promoted with 3 videos that were broadcast by the most popular Romanian television stations as public awareness messages. Moreover, these clips also played in Bucharest on the screens of public transport vehicles, of private banks and some popular shopping malls. Quiz: https://quiz.sigurantaonline.ro/ Videos: https://youtu.be/2JHBdsbR4Nw, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bs6rdiwm1VY We also published with ISACA Romania a book during ECSM 2021: Keep Your Information Safe, which is in English and can be read/downloaded/distributed from our DNSC website: https://dnsc.ro/vezi/document/keep-your-information-system-safe-kiss The aim of this book is not only to put together some principles, methodologies and any other relevant theoretical aspects on critical cybersecurity topics (offensive security, security incident handling, healthcare and supply chain security challenges, etc.) but also to provide an end-to-end overview of such selected topics and provide guidance on practical aspects for implementation, based on their own experience and perspective. Moreover, the content makes for accessible reading independent of the level of seniority a specialist might have. If you are a beginner, then this is a perfect way to gain insight into the topics and an invitation to start searching for additional materials depending on your needs and curiosity. In case you are a senior in the area, then you might find the information helpful as a means to compare and validate your approach and vision but at the same time it might give you new perspectives on specific topics. Slovenia Exposition In the last couple of years, we have noticed a steady increase in the number of cyber attacks targeting small and medium sized business enterprises. Financial losses that SMEs suffer as a result have also been growing and, according to our data, reached an all-time high in 2019. Problem SMEs are becoming a very popular target for cyber criminals as they often do not have the resources to implement sufficient cybersecurity measures. Additionally, they often do not employ IT experts, nor educate their employees on cybersecurity. As a result, their employees do not possess the knowledge or skills to recognize and protect themselves against cybersecurity threats. Resolution Cybersecurity has never been this important and to raise the level of awareness, we decided to launch a free online course "Safe in the office" (Sl: Varni v pisarni – www.varnipisarni.si). Since employees are usually short on time, we opted for a video format as we figured this was the best way to relay the information in a quick and concise manner. We divided the content into 4 modules, each addressing dangers pertaining to a specific job position (basics, marketing/sales, administration/finances, and IT). Each module covers topics that we split into 2-to-3-minute clips, so that viewers could watch the course at their own pace. In order to make the course more interesting, we included humoristic breaks with Jože Robežnik, who was the main character of our previous 3-video series. At the end of every module, we included a short quiz to test the viewers' knowledge. If completed successfully, the user received a certificate that proved they had attended the course. Result This online platform will be an on-going project and we hope that many businesses (and individuals) will decide to take the course. Certain companies, who have discovered our course, have already instructed their employees to complete one or more modules. So far one thousand users have registered and taken the course and the feedback has been very positive. Conclusion The majority of cyber attacks are still a result of human error, which is why we believe that the best protection or “antivirus” is knowledge. By offering this free course, we are giving each user the opportunity to educate themselves on cybersecurity and obtain the necessary knowledge and skills to stay secure in the workplace.

Učni moduli Spain Exposition The national cybersecurity culture is an issue of paramount importance for Spain. Our National Cybersecurity strategy identifies the need for greater input from everyone in society by encouraging a cybersecurity culture, to evolve from awareness to action, in the understanding that citizens have joint-responsibility for national cybersecurity. Promoting cybersecurity culture should be one of the central themes being developed to make society aware of these threats and challenges. The right to secure, reliable use of cyberspace and contributing to this situation are shared responsibilities. The aim is to establish one specific goal dedicated to culture and commitment to cybersecurity and strengthening human and technological skills. This goal is developed through a Line of Action for developing a cybersecurity culture that includes eight specific measures and is aligned with the National Security Culture Plan. This Culture Plan is a broad and ambitious project included in the National Security Law. Public-private collaboration is essential for improving national cybersecurity culture. Considering the above mentioned strategic and legal umbrella, European Cybersecurity Month offers us an opportunity to develop actions aligned with this. In that sense, Spain has organised a set of activities to promote awareness and culture in cybersecurity, focusing in the different targets: - Increase awareness-raising campaigns for citizens and companies - Boost initiatives and plans for digital literacy in cybersecurity. - Promote the spread of cybersecurity culture as a best business practice - Promote awareness-raising and training on cybersecurity in schools, adapted to all training levels and specialties 14 activities were uploaded and promoted through ECSM website. The CCN carries out the following activities: - Cyber advice [https://www.ccn.cni.es/index.php/es/ciberconsejos](https://www.ccn.cni.es/index.php/es/ciberconsejos) - STIC CCN-CERT Conference [https://www.ccn-cert.cni.es/en/xiiconference](https://www.ccn-cert.cni.es/en/xiiconference) - ENS meeting, Security Trends and Policies [https://www.ccn.cni.es/index.php/es/esquema-nacional-de-seguridad-ens/encuentro-ens](https://www.ccn.cni.es/index.php/es/esquema-nacional-de-seguridad-ens/encuentro-ens) - Conference on Early Warning System (SAT) INCIBE offers companies tools to help them make cybersecurity their differential value, as well as to give them the ability to protect themselves, become aware of the problem and, when appropriate, prevent possible incidents. These tools include the blog and security notices, the antibotnet service, which in the case of companies allows them to know if any computer equipment is being controlled remotely. Another useful tool is the self-diagnostic kit so that companies can evaluate their level of cybersecurity through some simple questions and thus be able to improve their protection against possible risks and threats. INCIBE also offers an anti-ransomware service (extortion that arises after the "hijacking" of device information by a virus), a catalogue of companies and cybersecurity solutions, and a role-play game that makes it possible to simulate five incidents, along with their solutions. Among the training elements, there are online courses under the MOOC methodology, interactive sector pathways and a "serious game" on cybersecurity, called "Hackend, the game", which helps players learn the most important risks faced by professionals. This free game won the prestigious "Best Serious Game" award in 2016 at the Serious Fun Games Festival. Professionals in the cybersecurity sector. INCIBE has several instruments to serve this sector that include - Blog - Security notices - Antibotnet service - Self-diagnostic kit - Anti-ransomware service - Catalogue of companies and cybersecurity solutions - Role play - Online courses - Sectoral interactive itineraries - "Hackend, the game" - Professionals in the cybersecurity sector - Security notices or notices for professionals in industrial control systems or vulnerabilities cybersecurity log or guides and studies. Citizens: INCIBE has the Internet Security Office (OSI) as an awareness channel focused on all those citizens who use the Internet on a regular or daily basis, without having advanced knowledge of computer science, telecommunications or cybersecurity. For that, it has several instruments, such as the blog, security advisories, true stories, the CONAN mobile service and the previously mentioned anti-botnet service, the cybersecurity test and two "serious games" called "Cyberscouts" and "Hackers vs Cybercrook" and a telephone service to answer citizens questions and solve security problems. There is a blog, security notices, real stories, the CONAN mobile service, antibotnet service, cybersecurity test, "Cyberscouts", "Hackers vs Cybercrook", telephone service. **For Minors:** INCIBE has the Internet Safety Centre for Minors in Spain or Safe Internet for Children (IS4K) to promote the safe and responsible use of the Internet and new technologies among children and adolescents. With it Spain will align with the Better Internet for Kids (BIK) strategy of the European Union, which seeks to sensitise and train not only minors, but also their immediate environment: family, teachers, educators and professionals of the sector, in Safe and responsible use of the Internet and new technologies. For this, it has several instruments such as parental control tools, the preparation of teaching materials for the educational community, the kit for educators, and the knowledge test. It also has different programs: - Cyber Olympics aimed at secondary schools and higher education colleges nationwide, - "Your space in cybersecurity" Stand - Organisation of the Safe Internet Day, in Spain. - Parental control tools - Teaching Kit for educators - Knowledge test - School days - Cybercamp aimed at families - Cyber volunteers IT, SCI and cybersecurity professionals: [https://www.incibe-cert.es/](https://www.incibe-cert.es/) Cyber Professionals: [https://www.incibe-cert.es/](https://www.incibe-cert.es/) Businesses: [https://www.incibe.es/protege-tu-empresa](https://www.incibe.es/protege-tu-empresa) [https://www.incibe.es/protege-tu-empresa/kit-concienciacion](https://www.incibe.es/protege-tu-empresa/kit-concienciacion) Citizens: [https://www.osi.es](https://www.osi.es) [https://www.osi.es/es/campanas](https://www.osi.es/es/campanas) Minors : [https://www.is4k.es/](https://www.is4k.es/) [https://www.is4k.es/campanas](https://www.is4k.es/campanas) In July 2020 Spain approved the National Cybersecurity Forum, a public-private initiative included in our National Cybersecurity Strategy 2019. This Forum will focus on creating synergies, particularly generating knowledge on opportunities, challenges and threats to security in cyberspace. The Forum incorporates representatives from civil society, experts, private sector, academia, associations. The 3 main axes that will be addressed are: culture, strengthening industry and R+D+i and promoting talent and education. [https://foronacionalcyberseguridad.es/index.php/en/](https://foronacionalcyberseguridad.es/index.php/en/) The forum is set up for 16 different organisations (users, professionals, academia). One of the working groups is dedicated to Cybersecurity Culture, and the first work done has 4 main objectives: - Objective 1: to analyse existing national and international initiatives and trends aimed at promoting a culture of cybersecurity. - Objective 2: to inform possible actions aimed at fostering national cybersecurity culture and generating a shared social awareness of the importance of cybersecurity. - Objective 3: to draw conclusions on the current state of cybersecurity culture in Spain and assess areas for improvement - Objective 4: to formulate proposals to improve the state of cybersecurity and generate social awareness of its importance. As a conclusion of this work, the Forum proposes 65 measures to improve cybersecurity culture, one of them is the creation of the National Cybersecurity Observatory [https://observaciber.es/](https://observaciber.es/) that offers to citizens statistics, reports and data for improving cybersecurity culture. The Forum has been an important element in ECSM 2021 for spreading key messages and taking part in activities during the ECSM campaign. The biggest event that took part in ECSM during October in Spain was the International Meeting on Information Security, which took place in Leon for 2 days. [https://www.incibe.es/en/enise/program](https://www.incibe.es/en/enise/program) INCIBE also manages the **017 helpline** that is the national, free and confidential service that INCIBE makes available to Internet and technology users in order to help them solve cybersecurity problems that may arise in their day-to-day life. It is aimed at citizens (Internet users in general); companies and professionals who use the Internet and new technologies in the performance of their activity and must protect their assets and their business; and minors and their environment (parents, educators and professionals who work in the field of minors or online protection linked to this public). The service is attended by a multidisciplinary team of experts, through the different contact options, who offer technical, psychosocial and legal advice, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., 365 days a year. Finally, INCIBE has spread TV cybersecurity advice that has been broadcast on the main TV channels. The new campaign is ‘Today is an ad, not tomorrow’ (#HoyEsUnAnuncio), launched in 2020, and showing what could happen if a user was the victim of a cybersecurity incident. This time it was portrayed through various scenarios that gave continuity to the message about the importance of taking precautions in our digital life, providing new ways to prevent or solve any cyber incident. **Problem** Coordination between the many different agencies that cybersecurity competences are spread across in Spain is one of the difficulties that needs to be addressed. During the national campaign we used the Standing Permanente Commission, set up by main cybersecurity public agencies; and the National Cybersecurity Forum which is composed of other forums of professionals, citizens, academia. However we had to spend a lot of effort in coordination and the visibility of the success of the campaign was limited. We used and spread the material made by ENISA, but perhaps it could be better, as in other years, to update the ECSM website in order to publish the material there which has been translated into the different languages and published according to the calendar. It was a little bit inefficient to send infographics every year to all actors. This will help member states, since we only need to link actors with this website. Another recursive problem is how to measure the impact of all the activities we developed during ECSM, because a lot of them are on the private sector side and this information was not public. **Resolution** As already mentioned, we have to put in extra coordination efforts because usually there are limited resources for the campaign. **Result** We are dedicating a lot of effort in order to improve the cybersecurity culture in all the layers and both, public and private fields. Training courses, awareness campaigns, dedicated portals. The idea is to identify gaps and cover them with new campaigns depending on the state of the art of the cyber world, new threats, level of maturity and so on. **Conclusion** ECSM has grown up since it started. However, there are limited resources to modify national campaigns that are already in place, although the topics used are similar. Spain has a lot of material, websites, help lines and specific campaigns for the different sectors of the public. We consider that, of course, there is an improvement opportunity, but looking to improving culture in a 360° is a correct approach for this.

To achieve this, we described some of the most common threats online and provided simple, hands-on recommendations on how to avoid malice attacks like phishing and ransomware, eID, back-up and passwords. Problem The digital society needs increased awareness of new threats and vulnerabilities. The challenge is to prompt behaviour change at the individual level, which is especially challenging because our brains are built to save energy and seek reward more than it takes care to click on links. The challenge however is that the new safer behaviours that are necessary are working against what the human brain instinctively wants. It is therefore important to work long-term. Resolution We (MSB and the police) have for 4 years worked and deepened the cooperation between 21 organisations (banks, companies, associations, authorities, etc.). The collaboration is stronger and used more widely than the campaign and is also valuable to their own organisations. Several partners create internal project groups, which in itself contributes to an increased understanding of cybersecurity. Cybersecurity is not an individual's responsibility but a community. We feel that each partner is best placed to reach their target group most effectively because they are a credible sender that the target group trusts and listens to. MSB and the police have overall responsibility for the campaign "Think safe" and produce about four messages each year. In addition, we have simple checklists available on msb.se. We support partners and offer freedom to work both internally (employees) and externally (customers, members, citizens), and create appropriate messages and communications materials which are most appropriate to their target group. This strategy has worked very well this year and has contributed to great success. Result This year, the collaboration has yielded an outstanding result. Last year we reached about 1.5 million whereas this year we reached 12.6 million! We feel that the issue of cybersecurity has received a real increase in focus. The reason for this may be partly that Coop (food company) was hit hard in an incident in July and could not charge customers for several days, which raised awareness nationally and internationally that everyone in society can be affected - both individuals and companies. The number of visitors to https://www.msb.se/sv/amnesomraden/informationssakerhet-cybersakerhet-och-sakra-kommunikationer/informationssakerhetsmanaden/ has increased compared to before, but gives little effect overall, but still important. Partners can find useful information there. For the third year, we conducted an IT security survey for the general public, which shows that behavioural changes in the population occur very slowly. However, the survey gives us proof that the campaign is important. The collaboration between 23 organisations has provided a base to work from, where we gather inspiration together, as well as commitment and knowledge. This year, we have also made better use of each other’s expertise and collaboration, for example in webinars and lectures. In total, over 60 webinars have been conducted, with over 30,000 visitors. Several of the webinars can be seen afterwards on the web. Several were arranged by companies’ organisations, such as Swedish Trade. A webinar organised by the Internet Foundation had 4,000 visitors, which has been viewed about 6,000 times in retrospect, mainly by the older generation. Crucial to that success was the support of good partners who shared the invitation further. We will continue to work on this approach next year! The police arranged a very successful “Think Safe” communications which gave 55,000 interactions and which was later shown on Story more than 500,000 times! Several organisations had webinars or various internal training sessions for their employees, for example, with a focus on “working remotely”, secure eID, passwords etc. Finally, and still significantly, more people than in previous years have used newsletters, articles, emails to communicate various messages. In addition to our partners, most of Sweden’s regions, many municipalities and additional authorities were active during October, with their own material or with the Think Safe material. **Conclusion** The foundation and long-term perspective are most effective when two authorities cooperate, MSB and the Police Authority. The next step is to develop collaborations with several partners who can reach citizens and employees. Create commitment, common interest, learning and “ownership” to contribute to increased awareness and safer behaviour among citizens and employees. Give freedom and encourage to embrace cyber secure behaviour. However, we will continuously need to refresh and re-evaluate, and develop campaigns so that we can reach target groups more effectively. **Campaign Visuals** MSB's "Roger film", re-launch of campaign film from 2018 The police and several other organisations have produced various short films and a chat. We arranged over 60 physical meetings and webinars, external and internal. They are often online and can be viewed afterwards. Here is Svensk Handels webinarium.

SUMMARY This report provides a status update regarding the City of Moreno Valley’s current Sister City Program and a proposal to expand the program to include an additional city. DISCUSSION About Sister City Programs: Sister City programs vary widely in organizational structure, yet they typically exist to plan and implement cooperative activities and exchanges to promote community advancement through arts and culture, youth and education, and, business and trade. Recent Activity: On March 3, 2015 staff provided a summary of the history of the City’s Sister City Program (Program) to the City Council (Attachment 1). Direction by the City Council at that meeting was to contact San Juan de Los Lagos to gauge their interest in reviving the program/ relationship. A letter of inquiry was sent on behalf of (then) Mayor Molina in May 2015 and staff received confirmation in January 2016 that the current leadership in San Juan de Los Lagos is interested in reviving the program (Attachments 2 and 3). As of the posting of this report, staff is working to coordinate a video conference meeting to alleviate both agencies from travel costs at this time. Council direction included surveying the community to gain the community’s perspective on the program. The survey that was administered over the 2015 summer between June and September yielded more than 2900 views and netted 73 responses (Attachment 3). The majority of respondents indicated the following: - In favor of re-establishing the existing program, however using current City resources was unfavorable; - In favor of reviewing new cities for consideration; and - Preferences for activities were cultural and student exchange programs. In September 2015, (then) Council Member Gutierrez and staff met with Moreno Valley Unified School District Superintendent and Chief Academic Officer, Dr. White and Dr. Kedziora respectively, to gauge interest in a student exchange program. The outcome of the meeting was that if the City were to develop and operate a student exchange program, the District would support the effort. The level of support was undefined. **Zacapu, Michoacán, Mexico: Proposed new City:** On February 8, 2016, the City hosted a small delegation of visitors from Zacapu, Michoacán, Mexico led by its Mayor Presidente Municipal Gerardo Torres and included key staff representatives. The meeting was initiated by a Moreno Valley resident with ties to Zacapu specifically to discuss the possibilities of creating a sister city relationship between Zacapu and Moreno Valley. Presidente Municipal Torres has since sent a letter establishing his desire to continue the discussions that would lead to a formal sister city relationship (Attachment 4). There appears to be shared interests between Moreno Valley and Zacapu, which include a focus on youth development and economic development. Zacapu has a lot to offer in terms of rich culture, a growing economy, and a desire to exchange ideas. During their visit, officials from Zacapu indicated a large enough number of co-nationals in the Inland Empire to make a sister city relationship beneficial. **Moving Forward** If the City Council decides to continue the pursuit of reviving the existing Sister City relationship with San Juan de los Lagos and/or consider a relationship with Zacapu or another city, points of consideration would include, but are not limited to: - Moreno Valley’s primary purpose of having a Sister City program. The primary purpose will help guide all future action and organizational models. For instance, if economic development is the primary purpose, working closely with the business community would be essential. - Evaluate of the level of community interest and identify resources. - Consider a Sister City International (SCI) affiliation. The annual dues are $970; cost is based on city population. The benefits of affiliation with SCI include access to expert resources, grant opportunities, training, and policy guidance. While such an affiliation is not mandatory, it may prove beneficial in enhancing the existing partnership with San Juan de los Lagos, as well as any additional communities which may become involved in Moreno Valley’s program. **FISCAL IMPACT** Records indicate that in Fiscal Years 2002/2003, 2005/2006, and 2007/2008 the City expended up to $2,600 on Sister City activities not including an SCI membership. **CITY COUNCIL GOALS** *Positive Environment.* Create a positive environment for the development of Moreno Valley’s future. **ATTACHMENTS** 1.

DeSantis, Assistant City Manager AGENDA DATE: March 3, 2015 TITLE: SISTER CITY PROGRAM RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Receive information about Moreno Valley’s Sister City Program history. 2. Provide guidance to staff regarding the Sister City program. SUMMARY This report provides a history of the City of Moreno Valley’s Sister City Program and related activities. DISCUSSION About Sister City Programs While Sister City programs and relationships vary widely in organizational structure, they typically exist to promote goodwill and community advancement through cultural, educational, humanitarian, goodwill, and economic development exchanges. Moreno Valley’s Sister City Program and History Overview The City of Moreno Valley currently has a Sister City relationship with San Juan de los Lagos, Jalisco, Mexico, which was established by Resolution No. 93-57 on July 13, 1993. The majority of program activity was sponsored by business or paid for personally by participants. It is estimated that Sister City program related exchanges went on hiatus in the mid-2000s due to the economic decline. In FY 11/12 the $1,100 program budget, which was previously used to host delegate receptions, was eliminated. Because the Sister City program was largely a citizen-based committee with City Council and staff participation, there are a limited number of documents recording the program’s activity (Attachments 1. 1991 Sister City Program Staff Report, 2. 1993 Resolution No. 93-57, and 3. 1999 Sister City Program Staff Report). Conversations with individuals who had participated in the program assisted staff in preparing this report. Sister City program activities included, but were not limited to: - A Moreno Valley Unified School District (MVUSD) administered student exchange program; - Goodwill exchanges to help the community of San Juan de los Lagos by providing Police and Fire protection training; - Coordination for donations of vehicles including a Riverside County fire truck, RTA bus, and an ambulance; - Donation of a freezer to an orphanage courtesy of Waste Management; - Goodwill exchange initiated by San Juan de los Lagos with the gift of art produced by a local artist for display at Moreno Valley City Hall; - Loan of a sacred religious symbol -- Our Lady of San Juan de los Lagos -- that was on display at St. Christopher’s church for a period of time; - Several mutual exchanges of ideas based on cultural activities and shared government processes during Moreno Valley delegation visits to San Juan de los Lagos, and San Juan de los Lagos delegation visits to Moreno Valley **Historical Timeline** - **1991:** Due to interest by City Council, the City joined the International Trade Task Force. A Study Session was held November 19, 1991 to review models for a Sister City program. The recommendation was not to pursue a formal Sister City International affiliation, but to be amenable to hosting international visitors. - **1993:** Resolution No. 93-57 established the adoption of San Juan de los Lagos as the City of Moreno Valley’s Sister City. Minutes from the July 13, 1993 City Council meeting indicate that a relationship with San Juan de los Lagos had been under cultivation for a couple of years as a result of the direct connection that community member Romelio Ruiz established with San Juan de los Lagos. A November 17, 1993 staff memo documents plans for the first San Juan de los Lagos delegate visit after Resolution No. 93-57 established the relationship. - **1999:** August 17, 1999 Staff report recommending the formalization of a Sister City Committee/Taskforce that was previously led by an informal group of community leaders including members of the City Council, MVUSD, Waste Management, Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, and Hispanos Unidos. The goal of the Committee/Taskforce was to improve accountability, organization, credibility, community involvement, and publicity. **Moving Forward** If the City Council decides to rejuvenate the existing Sister City relationship with San Juan de los Lagos and/or consider a relationship with a new community, points of consideration would include, but are not limited to: - Evaluate of the level of community interest on both sides. A fundamental requirement for a successful program is a strong community-based program. Strong interest by key community stakeholders is essential to a successful and meaningful program. This also extends to active participation by Moreno Valley’s two school districts, given the historical emphasis on the program’s student exchange component. Techniques to gauge potential interest and commitment within Moreno Valley might include: - Let’s Talk MoVal/ Survey Monkey - Community Meetings in each District - Meeting with Community groups (e.g. Chambers of Commerce, School Districts, Optimists, Soroptimists, Rotary, Kiwanis) Efforts to survey potential interest in San Juan de los Lagos would rely upon business and governmental leaders in that community. - Re-evaluate the primary purpose of having a Sister City program in Moreno Valley. The primary purpose will help guide all future action. - Re-evaluate of the program structure to ensure that it fulfills both communities’ participation objectives. Should the Council wish to pursue such an effort, staff can return with additional information regarding organizational models that may be effective for Moreno Valley’s program. - Re-evaluate a Sister City International (SCI) affiliation. The annual dues are $970; cost is based on city population. The benefits of affiliation with SCI include access to expert resources, grant opportunities, training, and policy guidance. While such an affiliation is not mandatory, it may prove beneficial in enhancing the existing partnership with San Juan de los Lagos, as well as any additional communities which may become involved in Moreno Valley’s program. **FISCAL IMPACT** Records indicate that in Fiscal Years 2002/2003, 2005/2006, and 2007/2008 the City expended up to $2,600 on Sister City activities. **CITY COUNCIL GOALS** *Positive Environment.* Create a positive environment for the development of Moreno Valley’s future. **ATTACHMENTS** 1.

Col. Centro San Juan de los Lagos, Jal. Mexico C.P. Estimado Honorable Presidente: Me dirijo a usted con interés en reactivar la relación de Ciudades Hermanas que la ciudad de Moreno Valley, California, y San Juan de Los Lagos, Jal. México, compartió durante aproximadamente 13 años. En 1993, nuestra ciudad aprobó la Resolución 93-57, que estableció formalmente la relación de Ciudades Hermanas entre nuestras ciudades. Desde entonces y hasta mediados de la década del 2000, nuestras ciudades disfrutaron intercambios de beneficiosos relacionados con actos de buena voluntad, las artes y la cultura, la educación y el gobierno. Como resultado de la recesión económica en los Estados Unidos, a mediados de la década del 2000, los intercambios entre nuestras ciudades se detuvieron. La Resolución sigue siendo válida y es el deseo de nuestro Ayuntamiento explorar la posibilidad de volver a energizar el programa. Es nuestra esperanza que el Ayuntamiento de San Juan de Los Lagos este interesado en seguir una discusión acerca de volver a conectar nuestras dos comunidades vibrantes. Sinceramente, Jesse L. Molina Alcalde c: Miembros del Concejo/Council Members Administrador de la Ciudad/City Manager May 22, 2015 Gobierno Municipal de San Juan de los Lagos Presidente Simón Hernández No. 1. Col. Centro San Juan de los Lagos, Jal. Mexico C.P. 47000 Dear Honorable Presidente: I am writing to you with interest in reviving the Sister City relationship that the City of Moreno Valley, California, and San Juan de Los Lagos shared for approximately 13 years. In 1993, our city approved Resolution 93-57, formally establishing the Sister City relationship between our cities. From then until the mid-2000s, our cities enjoyed beneficial exchanges related to acts of goodwill, arts and culture, education, and government. As a result of the economic downturn in the U.S. in the mid-2000s, exchanges between our cities came to a slow stop. The Resolution continues to be valid and it is the desire of the City Council to explore re-energizing the program. It is our hope that San Juan de Los Lagos would be interested in pursuing a discussion about reconnecting our two vibrant communities. Sincerely, Jesse L.

YXTIAN GUTIERREZ MAYOR OF MORENO VALLEY, CA USA Dear Mayor, Please receive my sincere salutations to you and your honorable council. It was a pleasure meeting you and getting to know your city. You have a beautiful city and a respectable council. Your gesture to giving us the key to the city is taken as a sign to open doors of collaboration and sharing, and it is greatly appreciated. We are very excited to have begun the conversation of a sisterhood between our cities. This would be in benefit to our co-national’s that reside in the inland empire region and of our nationals at home. Your success with the Emergency Operations Center, your initiative on business development, and your will to work with youth are admirable. The importance of youth to our administration is something that we have in common. The work with parks recreation and sports is also something that we have similarities in. We have “Jueves de Danzon” which is a dance event we hold with our elderly, we have a runners circle of almost 700 members that run on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and have our Purepecha sports center which works with children at risk. We would also love to share our Purepechan heritage; we have craftsman, dance groups, a youth Harmonic Orchestra, and many traditions that are worth promoting. We will also be hosting our 1ST TRADICIONAL ICE CREAM FAIR on April 2nd and 3rd. It would be a pleasure to receive you in our city and give you the same hospitality we received in Moreno Valley and to continue our conversation about sister Cities. We are at your service. Sincerely, Gerardo Torres Ochoa Cc: archivo Report to City Council TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Marshall Eyerman, Chief Financial Officer AGENDA DATE: June 14, 2016 TITLE: DISCUSSION OF CITY USER FEE SCHEDULE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2016/17 RECOMMENDED ACTION Recommendations: That the City Council: 1. Conduct a discussion on the proposed 2016/17 User Fee Schedule. SUMMARY The City of Moreno Valley is allowed to recover cost for certain services provided at the request of the public. Based on California statutes, cities are able to recover up to the full cost of services which are provided based on voluntary requests from the public. Stipulations included regarding the charging of fees require that any revenues collected related to the provision of these services can only be used to offset costs related to the performance of the requested services or activities. Also the fees may not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing that service. The findings from the cost analysis have been presented to the Finance Sub-Committee for review and comment at their meetings on February 24, 2016 and May 24, 2016. Staff also requested input from the Building Industry Association (BIA) and the National Association of Industrial and Office Parks (NAIOP). The Finance Subcommittee has recommended that the proposed fees remain similar to current levels except for fees where the structure needed to be changed to accommodate a more efficient method for charging fees. The fees that experienced a modification of the structure were primarily permitting, plan check and inspection fees in the development services areas. The new fees were set at levels in a manner to achieve current levels of revenue that are being experienced by the development services areas, which in some instances are below full cost recovery. DISCUSSION In late 2014 the City began the study to determine the underlying costs associated with city services in order to establish a basis for setting the user fees for the coming year. NBSS was hired to perform this cost analysis. With the completion of the cost analysis portion of the project, the City Council now has the ability to review the cost findings and establish the new user fee schedule. The last time a study of this type was conducted was 2006 with the fees implemented during FY 2008. Due to the amount of analysis that is required for this type of study, we have generally conducted a full study every 5 to 8 years. In conjunction with the cost analysis, the City is in the process of implementing new development services software which is intended to leverage current technologies to streamline the permitting/inspection process. The cost analysis and the modification of the overall fee structure for some divisions reflect a structure which is intended to take advantage of the strength of the software and to allow the development, permitting and inspection processes to flow more efficiently, thus potentially saving time for both City staff and the development community. The new software implementation is tentatively scheduled to occur in late 2016/early 2017, following the adoption of the new user fee structure. At the Finance Subcommittee meeting on February 24, 2016, staff presented a description of the cost analysis process, information related to state statutes addressing the setting of fees and the preliminary draft report based on the completed cost analysis and the maximum cost recovery amounts. On April 27, 2016, the City met with representatives from the Building Industry Association of Southern California, Riverside County Chapter (BIA). The meeting was called to share the proposed methodology of the draft user fee study and discuss some concerns the BIA has regarding the City’s building plan review and permit fees for single-family detached dwellings. As a result of the meeting, the BIA is in support of the shift from a valuation based fee structure to a time-motion system to more accurately develop appropriate cost recovery for City services. It was emphasized to the BIA that this new system will enhance the customer’s experience with respect to process tracking, status updates, scheduling and access to key information. The system will also provide a tool to track time for all permit processes and enable the City to create a database of information for future fee schedule refinements. The BIA will be recommending the City Council adopt the results of the user fee schedule methodology, but modified so that the resulting fee amounts for single-family detached dwellings remain equal to the current fee schedule. Additionally, the BIA will also be recommending that an adequate sampling of future time data on projects be utilized for the City to ultimately incorporate into future updates of the user fee schedule. Along with the aforementioned modifications, the BIA also supports the user fee study moving forward in a timely fashion to enable the City to progress with its implementation of new permit tracking software. At the May 24, 2016 Finance Subcommittee meeting, the members reviewed additional comparative data and discussed strategies for implementing the new fee structure in a manner that would not raise the fee impact to developers but would still allow staff to move forward with the implementation of the new development permitting software. The recommendations from the committee were as follows: - Implement the new structure for development fees. - Keep all fees similar to current levels. - Present the proposed revised fee schedule to the City Council in a Study Session. **FISCAL IMPACT** The fiscal impact for the adoption of the user fees will be determined based on the percentage of full costs recovery established by the City Council. Additionally, as most user fees are based on a request for service, any impacts of the user fees recovery levels may also be impacted by the number of future request for services. **PREPARATION OF STAFF REPORT** Prepared by: Brooke McKinney, Treasury Operations Division Manager Concurred by: Allen Brock, Community Development Director Department Head Approval: Marshall Eyerman, Chief Financial Officer/City treasurer **CITY COUNCIL GOALS** **Revenue Diversification and Preservation.** Develop a variety of City revenue sources and policies to create a stable revenue base and fiscal policies to support essential City services, regardless of economic climate. **ATTACHMENTS** 1.

Good Evening AMU Members, Today we met with Green Dot for our second session of negotiations. GD provided their response to our proposal to Article 17 on Discipline. Green Dot did not agree to any of the changes we proposed in our first session regarding eliminating the word "serious" as a reason Green Dot can skip progressive discipline steps. AMU and GD are aligned on updating from the title of "Vice President of Human Capital" to "CAO or designee" in this article. Green Dot also did not agree with our proposal to strike Article 17.8, which explicitly states the Education Code does not apply to GDPSC. GD proposed making a joint statement as an appendix in our CBA with AMU to affirm antiracist beliefs. AMU questioned whether our CBA is the appropriate place for this kind of statement while keeping in mind our values as an Anti-Racist union. AMU presented our proposal on Article 6, Work Year and Hours of Employment. AMU proposed reducing the number of pupil free days in PD and adding individual planning days before the start of a semester. AMU also proposed a new Teacher Flex Calendar for Special Education Teachers for the purpose of allowing flexible work days to provide time to prepare IEPs and other compliance duties. In this same article AMU proposed specifying counselor duties to prioritize students' social and academic needs. For both counselors and special education teachers, AMU also proposed pushing back the deadline to pick flex days to allow more time to plan for them. In addition, AMU proposed clarifying that the time needed for preparation needs to occur during the instructional day. In regards to the school calendar and bell schedule, AMU proposed changing the word "recommend" to "determined" by the School Site Calendar Committee to ensure the school's autonomy on deciding a calendar and schedule that is best for the school and students. Under the same article, AMU proposed structuring counselor flex time to accommodate for instances where counselors are required to work beyond the professional work day. Finally, AMU proposed more flexible language on the 90 minute preparation time to ensure all schools are receiving the full 90 minutes needed to prepare for Advisory, a non-academic class, and a maximum of instructional minutes given to students to assure it is adequate but also not infringing on instructional minutes for academic or core classes. Our next day of negotiations on Wednesday, March 29th. Please reach out to myself or our AMU Vice-President, Hector Vega, if you have any questions. Thank you for all that you do and have a great weekend. In Solidarity, --

Nature — evolution — has spawned countless creatures. Today, Earth harbours millions of species — from tiny microbes to the largest animal ever to have lived on our planet, the 200 tonne blue whale. Animals live on land, in the oceans, and in the air — and most species look very different in size and limbs, body shape and appearance. But nature is not what it seems. There's a lot more to life than the usual picture. Some of them are closely related — closer than you'd expect. Yet other species look surprisingly alike, with similar or even the same body features, even though they're not even related — a phenomenon, called 'convergent evolution'. STRANGE RELATIONS This film presents these discoveries in a fresh, entertaining, and yet very informative way. You will meet a lot of fascinating creatures with a wide variety of biological connections to one another — whether it's differences or similarities. Split screen shots bring certain species face to face, an entertaining way of visualizing and focusing on the animals' commonalities — or on their contrasts … Discovering your family history often produces surprises — but the family trees of these creatures are even more revealing. Meet the rock hyrax: this cat-sized animal lives in Southern Africa and the Middle East. It somehow reminds of a marmot — although without a tail. But both species prefer rocky habitats, where they can escape from predators by taking refuge in little caves and crevices. And yet, rock hyrax and marmot are not related to each other at all. Instead, one of the rock hyrax's closest relatives is bigger — much bigger. It may be hard to believe — but it's the elephant. And the rock hyrax has yet another even more unlikely relative — the manatee, or sea cow — a marine mammal that lives in tropical waters. Uncovering these unexpected differences and similarities reveals some fascinating evolutionary stories. You probably wouldn't believe that we humans have — admittedly distant — relatives that can fly. Well, maybe not really fly — but they can take to the air. In the jungles of south-east Asia lives the colugo, a gliding mammal whose closest evolutionary relatives are primates. And just like lemurs and monkeys, apes and great apes, we humans belong to this family, too. Colugos live up in the trees of the rainforest. To get around the jungle, they spread their arms and legs, opening a large skin membrane. When they jump from a branch, this membrane carries them through the air, gliding over distances of up to 70 metres or so, while their cousins, such as monkeys or apes like the gibbon, can only jump from one tree to the next. While colugos are 'flying', the largest birds on earth can't — but the ostrich can run very fast, up to 70 kilometres or so per hour. Very different from some ancient-looking relatives that still roam the earth — but seem to do this in slow-motion … Speaking of similarities that aren't obvious — there are two rodent species that look very different. One is small and completely naked, while its cousin is not only much larger, but bears spines up to 30 centimetres long. The former is the naked mole-rat, the latter the porcupine. As well as looking nothing alike, there's another difference in their social behaviour. The naked mole-rat is the only mammal that lives in large social colonies underground, with a queen, a clear hierarchy and distribution of tasks, just like ants or bees. In contrast, the monogamous porcupine forms small family groups and lives on the surface, while New World porcupines like the urson even climb trees. Today's birds share a common group of ancestors, called theropods — a special group of dinosaurs. And there's yet another member of this very family — the crocodile. ,NOW IT'S THE OTHER WAY ROUND — JUST TAKE ANOTHER LOOK … They look completely different, show different features and different behaviour, but birds and crocodiles have more in common than you'd expect. For example, both reproduce by laying eggs. A good example of animals that look similar but aren't related at all, are the hedgehog, the echidna (or spiny anteater), and the tenrec. And what do they all have in common? Spines — protection from attack by predators. A big difference, though, is that crocodiles bury their eggs in the ground and let the warm soil do the incubating, whereas most birds actively incubate their eggs with their body warmth, in nests. However, there are a few bird species that also use the soil to do the work — or they use a specially created pile of twigs and leaves. But despite looking so similar, all three species couldn't be more different. They don't even live in the same place. The hedgehog lives in Europe, Africa, and parts of Asia. The echidna inhabits Australia, Tasmania, and New Guinea, while the tenrec is endemic to Madagascar and some neighbouring islands. And — even more interesting — they reproduce in somewhat different ways. The hedgehog and the tenrec give birth to living offspring, but the echidna lays eggs. It's the only mammal besides the platypus to do so. Striking similarity in shape, size and habitat is also true for the largest creatures in the oceans. Amongst these giants are whales — and also whale sharks. But again, there are fundamental differences: while whales are marine mammals, whale sharks are the largest fish on the planet. Whales give birth to living calves, just as land mammals do. In contrast, the reproduction of whale sharks is much more complicated — and quite fascinating. Whale sharks are ovoviviparous — females keep their eggs in the body after these have been fertilized by the male. The females then give birth to live young which are about 40 to 60 centimetres long. But it seems that the pups aren't all born at once, but rather the female retains sperm from one mating and produces a steady stream of pups over prolonged intervals. This way, whale sharks spread their offspring over a larger area and a longer period of time — which gives them a better chance of survival. Speaking of sharks — these fish show quite a similar body shape to dolphins, who are whales. But due to convergent evolution, both species developed a very different way of swimming. Sharks have vertical tail fins, while the tail fins — or flukes — of dolphins are horizontal. This leads to accordingly different movements of their bodies that at first glance seem so similar. An elongated silhouette slithering through grass and over ground — the first and obvious thought is: this must be a snake, because these reptiles slither across the ground by wriggling their whole bodies. Snakes are very special creatures, but they're not the only ones to move like this. Some snakes even live in water, where they also propel themselves by wriggling. But there are marine animals, too, very similar to snakes: moray eels. These snake-like fish inhabit shallow ocean waters and coral reefs, and they also swim in a very serpentine way. Moreover, they have a quite fascinating cousin — the eel. Unlike many other migrating fish, eels begin life in the ocean, then spend most of their lives in fresh inland water, or brackish coastal water, before returning to the ocean to spawn and then die. When eels travel upstream rivers, they're often forced to climb over obstacles or surmount obstructions, such as weirs, dam walls, and natural waterfalls, yet they can even leave the water and slither over preferably wet ground to get to the next body of water. Eels can stay out of the water for hours, or even days, given the right conditions. And during this time, they might even meet some apparent relatives that move just like them — snakes. This very special film reveals the connections between strange and fascinating species — the familiar and the unfamiliar. As it does, it reflects the incredible variety that nature has created on our planet. And even more important: it shows that diversity is the most natural thing on Earth …

PI Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience, The George Washington University Assistant Professor, Neurology, Emory University School of Medicine Her research interests include vascular risk factors for Alzheimer's disease and the influence of sex hormones on cognition Research Category Translational Research & Clinical Interventions Awards This is Dr. Wharton's first Association award Whitney Wharton, Ph.D. Emory University Atlanta, Georgia 2015 Part the Cloud Translational Research Funding for Alzheimer's Disease Mechanistic Potential of Antihypertensives in Preclinical Alzheimer's This Phase 1b clinical trial will determine if the FDA-approved antihypertensive drug, perindopril, may work by mechanisms other than lowering blood pressure to ultimately reduce Alzheimer's risk in AfricanAmericans. There is evidence that reducing high blood pressure can decrease risk for developing Alzheimer's disease. One class of drugs used to lower blood pressure (antihypertensives) acts on the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), which is a key regulator of blood pressure in the body and the brain. This class of drug is associated with reduced risk of Alzheimer's in people of European ancestry. However, because these drugs are less effective in lowering blood pressure in African-Americans, they are prescribed less often. The beneficial effects of these drugs in people of European ancestry could be working to reduce Alzheimer's risk by mechanisms other than lowering blood pressure. If true, they could be of advantage to African-Americans as well. Whitney Wharton, Ph.D., and colleagues have proposed a clinical trial to test the effects of a drug that targets the RAS, called perindopril, in a group of middle-aged African-American individuals who have high blood pressure and a family history of Alzheimer's disease. Perindopril is already being used to treat high blood pressure, so its safety profile is well known. The researchers will determine 1) what dose of perindopril is optimal for modulating RAS activity in the brain and 2) examine the drug's effects on biological changes associated with Alzheimer's disease in the cerebrospinal fluid, which highly reflects changes occurring in the brain. The study will help determine if perindopril may be useful as a treatment to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease in African-Americans by its ability to regulate mechanisms involved in the development of Alzheimer's, and not necessarily by its effectiveness in lowering blood pressure.

SCHWERPUNKTTHEMA Kassenführung STEUERRECHT Steuern sparen durch optimale Gehalts­gestaltung – mit Check­liste zum Herausnehmen! RECHT Urteil des BSG zur Nachbesetzung BETRIEBSVERGLEICH Kardiologen VORWORT Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, liebe Mandanten, wenn Sie dieses „MEDWISSEN" in Händen halten, liegt der G-20-Gipfel in Hamburg schon hinter uns und die Bundestagswahl kommt mit großen Schritten näher. Das ist auch der Grund, warum in den Medien wieder viel über Steuersenkungen (von bestimmten Parteien auch über Umverteilungen) zu hören und zu lesen ist, aus der Gesetzgebung aber relativ wenig Neues zu vermelden ist. Trotzdem haben wir – wie wir hoffen – wieder eine Reihe interessanter Meldungen aus den Bereichen „Steuerrecht" und „Recht" für Sie zusammengetragen. Nach der ungeahnten Nachfrage, die unsere Checkliste „Steuern sparen durch optimale Gehaltsgestaltung" in der Ausgabe I/2016 ausgelöst hatte, haben wir uns entschlossen, sie auch dieses Mal – in überarbeiteter Form – wieder in die Heftmitte zum Herausnehmen zu integrieren. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Aufzeichnung der Bareinnahmen, die vom Finanzamt im Rahmen der Betriebsprüfungen immer kritischer hinterfragt wird. Unter den vielen interessanten Rechtsberichten sei besonders auf die Ausführungen zum Grundsatzurteil des BSG betreffend die Nachbesetzung einer Arztstelle hingewiesen – nur einer von vielen Wissenswerten Beiträgen. Nun wünschen wir Ihnen eine angenehme und nutzbringende Lektüre und einen tollen Sommer 2017. Gerne erwarten wir auch Ihre Fragen und Anregungen. Herzlichst Detlef Rohwer Alexander Gut 02 Neue BFH­ Entscheidungen zum Arbeitszimmer 03 04 — Einkommensteuer Freiberufl er und Selbstständige müssen Steuererklärung elektronisch abgeben Von der Pfl icht, die Steuerklärung elektronisch ans Finanzamt zu schicken, lässt das Finanzgericht Münster keine Ausnahme zu. Auch Argumente, dass das Internet ein höchst unsicherer Ort ist und Daten von Hackern leicht ausgespäht und geändert werden können, zählen für die Richter nicht. Sie lehnten das Verlangen eines Ingenieurs ab, ihm die Abgabe der Steuerunterlagen in Papierform oder auf CD zu gestatten. Die von der Finanzverwaltung bereitgestellte Übermittlungssoftware sei vom Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI) zertifi ziert worden und gewährleistete ein hinreichendes Maß an Datensicherheit, so das Gericht Ehegatten können sich Kosten fürs Arbeitszimmer nur teilen Eheleute, die zuhause gemeinsam ein Arbeitszimmer nutzen, können dieses nur jeweils hälftig bei der Steuer ansetzen. Das hat das Finanzgericht Münster entschieden. Selbstständige können die Hälfte der Gesamtkosten für das Zimmer als Betriebsausgaben geltend machen. Ist einer der Eheleute Arbeitnehmer, ist nur der hälftige Höchstbetrag von 625 Euro zu berücksichtigen, da der Abzugsbetrag „objektbezogen" zu betrachten sei. Revision zum Bundesfi nanzhof wurde zugelassen. Weiter Weg zur Praxis: Logopäde kann Arbeitszimmer absetzen Ein häusliches Arbeitszimmer steuerlich geltend zu machen, ist für Heilberufl er mit eigener Praxis fast unmöglich geworden. Nur in besonderen Ausnahmefällen ist der Abzug noch möglich – so wie etwa bei einem Logopäden, der vor dem Finanzgericht Sachsen-Anhalt darlegen konnte, dass er die Bürotätigkeiten nicht in seiner Praxis durchführen kann. Die Gründe: Die drei Zimmer der Praxis sind ständig von Angestellten und Patienten belegt. Er selbst arbeitet vorwiegend auswärts. Außerdem befand das Gericht, dass es dem Logopäden wegen der Entfernung zwischen Wohnung und Praxis (47 km) nicht zumutbar sei, außerhalb der Sprechzeiten in die Praxis zu fahren, um dort dann abends oder am Wochenende den Bürokram zu erledigen. Versicherungsleistungen mindern Abzug von Handwerkerleistungen Wer faktisch nichts gezahlt hat, der kann in der Steuererklärung auch keine Kosten für haushaltsnahe Handwerkerleistungen geltend machen. Das klingt einleuchtend. Trotzdem musste sich das Finanzgericht Münster mit einem solchen Fall beschäftigten: Eine Klägerin hatte einen Wasserschaden erlitten. Längere Fristen zur Abgabe der Steuererklärung ab Vz 2018 05 06 07 3.200 Euro kostete die Renovierung, für die die Versicherung komplett aufkam. Trotzdem setzte die Klägerin die Handwerkerkosten in der Steuererklärung an. Das Gericht lehnte die Steuerermäßigung ab, da eine wirtschaftliche Belastung der Klägerin wegen der Versicherungszahlung fehle. Generell gelte, dass Versicherungsleistungen die abzugsfähigen Handwerkerkosten mindern. Photovoltaik: Mängel können fünf Jahre lang geltend gemacht werden Viele Hausbesitzer setzen sich zwecks Stromgewinnung Photovoltaikanlagen aufs Dach. Was aber ist, wenn die Handwerker schludern und die Anlage Mängel hat? Wie lange kann man diese dann geltend machen? Fünf Jahre, hat der Bundesgerichtshof jetzt entschieden. Das gilt zumindest dann, wenn die Photovoltaikanlage so fest mit dem Haus verbunden ist, dass eine Trennung nur noch mit erheblichem Aufwand möglich ist. In diesem Fall seien die Verjährungsregeln anwendbar, die für Mängelansprüche bei Bauwerken gelten. Steuerklärungen sollen künftig vollautomatisch geprüft werden Die Kommunikation mit dem Finanzamt soll ab 2017 digitaler und schneller werden. Das sieht das Gesetz zur Modernisierung des Besteuerungsverfahrens vor, dem kürzlich der Bundesrat grünes Licht gegeben hat. Ziel ist unter anderem die vollautomatische Bearbeitung von Steuererklärungen. Individuelle Prüfungen sollen vorwiegend nur noch anlassbezogen erfolgen, etwa wenn der Steuerbürger Eintragungen in ein Freitextfeld vornimmt. Daneben werden ab 2018 die Fristen für die Abgabe der Steuererklärung verlängert. Außerdem soll es künftig möglich sein, den Steuerbescheid elektronisch abzurufen. Behandlung von Legasthenie als außergewöhnliche Belastung Die Behandlung von Legasthenie als außergewöhnliche Belastung bei der Steuer geltend machen: Das Bayerische Landesamt für Steuern weist in einem Schreiben in Anlehnung an die Rechtsprechung darauf hin, welche Bedingungen dafür erfüllt sein müssen. Um die Aufwendungen für eine Therapie steuerlich gemäß § 33 EStG geltend machen zu können, ist ein Nachweis über die Notwendigkeit der Behandlung erforderlich, allein der Nachweis einer Diagnose reicht nicht. Das heißt: Ein Arzt muss die medizinische Indikation der Behandlung bestätigen. Ein amtsärztliches Gutachten oder eine Bescheinigung des Medizinischen Dienstes sind dagegen in der Regel nicht nötig. Sie sind nur in den eng begrenzten Fällen erforderlich, die in § 64 Abs. 1 S. 1 Nr. 2 EStG-Durchführungsverordnung aufgelistet sind. 09 Die Leistung muss räumlich im Haus oder in unmittelbarer Nähe (Garten) erbracht werden 10 Keine Tarifbegünstigung für KV-Nachzahlungen Für Nachzahlungen der KV können Ärzte und Psychotherapeuten keine geringere Steuerbelastung als außerordentliche Einkünfte i.S.v. § 34 EStG beanspruchen. Das hat der Bundesfi nanzhof (BFH) entschieden. Eine Tarifbegünstigung komme nur in Betracht, wenn die zusätzlichen Einnahmen zu einer „einmaligen und außergewöhnlichen Progressionsbelastung" für den Steuerpfl ichtigen führen, so die Richter. Eine solche Einmaligkeit liege aber bei einer Nachzahlung, die in gleich großen Beträgen auf zwei Jahre verteilt wird, nicht mehr vor. Sonst sei es auch nicht möglich, die Grenze zwischen regelhaft zu versteuerndem Einkommen und der Tarifbegünstigung trennscharf zu ziehen, sagte der BFH. Ein Grund für eine geringere Besteuerung ergebe sich auch nicht daraus, dass die KV den Zufl uss des Geldes in zwei statt in einem Betrag „aufzwingt". Handwerkerleistung nur steuerbegünstigt, wenn im Haushalt erbracht Mit der Steuerermäßigung für haushaltsnahe Dienstleistungen und Handwerkerleistungen wollte der Gesetzgeber die Schwarzarbeit in Privathaushalten eindämmen. Seitdem taucht immer wieder die Frage auf, was haushaltsnah bedeutet: das Finanzgericht Rheinland-Pfalz stellte jetzt erneut klar, dass die Leistungen in einem unmittelbaren räumlichen Zusammenhang zum Haushalt erbracht werden müssen. Das Beziehen von Polstermöbeln gehöre nur dann dazu, wenn es vor Ort erbracht werde. Hol- und Bringedienst mit Erledigung in der Werkstatt des Raumausstatters scheiden dabei aber aus. Häusliche Pfl ege ohne Fachpersonal: Kosten sind trotzdem abzugsfähig Auch wenn die häusliche Pfl ege von nicht ausgebildetem Fachpersonal übernommen wird, sind die Kosten dafür als außergewöhnliche Belastungen steuerlich absetzbar. Das hat das Finanzgericht Baden-Württemberg entschieden. Im konkreten Fall wollte eine pfl egebedürftige Frau ihre Aufwendungen für einen polnischen Pfl egedienst in Höhe von 28.000 Euro geltend machen. Das Finanzamt gestand ihr aber nur einen Abzug als haushaltsnahe Dienstleistungen, maximal also 4000 Euro, zu, weil es sich bei den Pfl egern um nicht ausgebildetes Fachpersonal handelte. Das Finanzgericht sah für einen Abzug keinen Hinderungsgrund, da nach dem Einkommensteuergesetz die Fachausbildung keine Voraussetzung sei. Allerdings kürzte es die Aufwendungen auf einen angemessenen Betrag von 20.732 Euro und zog das gezahlte Pfl egegeld davon ab. Küche gilt als selbst­ ständig einsetzbar und ist damit Anlage ver­ mögen. Anschaff ungs­ kosten werden über die Abschreibung verteilt 12 13 Einbauküche ist nicht mehr wesentlicher Bestandteil einer Wohnung Vermieter, die in einer vermieteten Wohnung die Einbauküche komplett erneuern, können die Kosten dafür nicht sofort als Werbungskosten bei den Einkünften aus Vermietung und Verpachtung abziehen. Nach einer Entscheidung des Bundesfi nanzhofs müssen die Aufwendungen vielmehr über einen Zeitraum von zehn Jahren im Wege der Absetzungen für Abnutzung (AfA) abgeschrieben werden. Damit ändert das Gericht seine bisherige Rechtsprechung. Grund dafür ist, dass die Richter Spüle und Kochherd nicht mehr als wesentliche Gebäudebestandteile ansehen, ohne die eine Immobilie „unfertig" ist. Die Erneuerung solcher unselbstständigen Gebäudeteile kann steuerlich sofort abgezogen werden. Rückzahlungen vom Versorgungswerk sind steuerfrei Nicht wenige Ärzte wechseln nach einigen Jahren in der Klinik das Metier und arbeiten zum Beispiel für die Pharmaindustrie oder gehen in den öffentlichen Dienst. Unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen können sie sich dann die Pfl ichtbeiträge, die sie an das ärztliche Versorgungswerk gezahlt haben, zurückerstatten lassen – und zwar nach § 3 Nr. 3c EStG steuerfrei. So hat das Finanzgericht Rheinland-Pfalz entschieden. In dem konkreten Fall ging es zwar um Beiträge an ein Rechtsanwalt-Versorgungswerk, das Urteil ist auf das ärztliche Pendant aber übertragbar. Die Richter urteilten, dass die Beitragsrückerstattungen keine Leibrente sind und auch nicht nach § 34 EStG nur ermäßigt besteuert werden. Auch ein Schreiben des Bundesfi nanzministeriums, das das Finanzamt so interpretierte, dass für die Steuerfreiheit bis zur Rückzahlung eine Wartefrist von zwei Jahren eingehalten werden muss, ist laut Gericht nicht anwendbar. Die Revision wurde zugelassen. — Selbstanzeige Hinterziehungszinsen werden auch auf Vorauszahlungen fällig Wer als Selbstständiger Einkommensteuer hinterzieht, muss – wenn er erwischt wird oder später sich selbst anzeigt – nicht nur strafrechtliche Sanktionen fürchten, sondern im jeden Fall auch Hinterziehungszinsen zahlen. Der Fiskus langt hier, gemessen an dem aktuellen Zinsniveau, recht üppig zu: Der Zinssatz liegt bei 0,5 Prozent pro Monat oder 6 Prozent pro Jahr. Das Finanzgericht Münster hat nun entschieden, dass das Finanzamt auf jede falsche vierteljährliche Einkommensteuer-Vorauszahlung Hinterziehungszinsen berechnen kann. Im konkreten Fall hatte ein Zahnarzt jahrelang ausländische Kapitalerträge bei der Steuer nicht angegeben. Damit, so das Gericht, habe er nicht nur Jahresfestsetzungen, sondern auch die für spätere Jahre festzusetzenden Vorauszahlungen hinterzogen. 15 Der BFH rechnet Betten und Verpfl egung nicht mehr als notwendig und unerlässlich für die Rehabilitation an 16 Sammelauskunftsersuchen der Steuerfahndung verfassungsgemäß Die Kompetenzen der Steuerfahndung sind weitreichend und sollten nicht unterschätzt werden. Ein Urteil des Bundesfi nanzhofes könnte weitreichende Folgen haben. Im Streitfall hatte das Finanzamt vom Herausgeber einer Tageszeitung verlangt, über einen Zeitraum von zwei Jahren sämtliche Auftraggeber bestimmter Anzeigen zu benennen. Es handelte sich um Kontaktanzeigen, in denen „bestimmte Dienstleistungen" beworben wurden. Der Verlag wehrte sich mit Hinweis auf die grundrechtlich geschützte Pressefreiheit – leider ohne Erfolg. Damit steht es dem Finanzamt frei, z.B. Auftraggeber von Kleinanzeigen zu erforschen, die Haushaltsgegenstände oder ähnliches veräußern möchten, um die ordnungsgemäße Versteuerung der Einnahmen nachprüfen zu können. Auch wenn die Ursache gering erscheinen mag, die Wirkung ist für jeden Betroffenen unangenehm, wenn er eigentlich Privates plötzlich nachvollziehen und sich rechtfertigen muss. — Umsatzsteuer Leistungen von Rehakliniken können Umsatzsteuer unterfallen Betten und Verpfl egung für Angehörige von Patienten sowie Kantinenessen für Mitarbeiter: Erzielt eine Rehaklinik damit Umsätze, wird Mehrwertsteuer fällig – auch wenn die Klinik von einem öffentlich-rechtlichen Träger betrieben wird. Der Bundesfi nanzhof sieht für eine Mehrwertsteuerbefreiung keine rechtliche Grundlage. Die genannten Dienstleistungen seien für die medizinische Rehabilitation der Patienten und deren Qualität nicht notwendig oder unerlässlich. Auch Leistungen eines öffentlich-rechtlichen Trägers, die nur dazu dienen, den Komfort und das Wohlbefi nden der Krankenhauspatienten zu verbessern, sind nicht steuerfrei, so der BFH. Zytostatika-Urteil: Krankenhausapotheken haben Wahlrecht bis April 2017 In einem Schreiben zum Zytostatika-Urteil des Bundesfi nanzhofs stellt das Bundesfi nanzministerium klar, dass die vom Gericht postulierte Umsatzsteuerbefreiung nicht nur für die Zubereitung von Zytostatika in Krankenhausapotheken gilt, die im Rahmen einer Krebstherapie angewendet werden, sondern auch für Arzneimittel, „die wie Zytostatika-Zubereitungen individuell für den Patienten hergestellt werden". Hiervon abzugrenzen sei „die Abgabe von nicht patientenindividuellen Zubereitungen und Fertigarzneimitteln, auch wenn diese als Begleitmedikamente verabreicht werden sowie die Abgabe von nicht in der Krankenhausapotheke selbst hergestellten patientenindividuellen Zubereitungen". Will ein Krankenhaus Zytostatika-Abgaben nun (möglicherweise auch schon für abgelaufene Veranlagungszeiträume) als umsatzsteuerfrei behandeln, ist ein Vorsteuerabzug natürlich nicht möglich. Rechnungen dürfen dann entsprechend berichtigt werden. Weiter heißt es in 18 Nur Heilbehandlungen im engeren Sinne unterliegen der Umsatz­ steuerbefreiung 19 dem Schreiben, dass es nicht beanstandet wird, wenn Umsätze, die vor dem 1. April 2017 ausgeführt werden, dem allgemeinen Steuersatz unterworfen werden und damit auch ein Vorsteuerabzug geltend gemacht wird. Meldungen an klinische Krebsregister sind von der Umsatzsteuer befreit Vergütungen, die Ärzte für Tumormeldungen an Krebsregister erhalten, sind nicht pauschal umsatzsteuerpfl ichtig. Entsprechend dem Urteil des Bundesfi nanzhofes von Ende 2015 hat das Bundesfi nanzministerium (BMF) den Umsatzsteuer-Anwendungserlass geändert und differenziert danach, ob es sich um Mitteilungen an ein klinisches oder ein epidemiologisches Krebsregister handelt. Bei Meldungen eines Arztes, „zB an das epidemiologische Krebsregister, die in der reinen Dokumentation erfolgter Behandlungen bestehen", liege keine steuerbefreite Heilbehandlung vor. „Steuerfrei sind dagegen Meldungen, zB an das klinische Krebsregister, bei denen nach der Auswertung der übermittelten Daten eine patientenindividuelle Rückmeldung an den Arzt erfolgt und hierdurch weitere im Einzelfall erforderliche Behandlungsmaßnahmen getroffen werden können", heißt es in einem Schreiben des BMF. Beratungen am „Gesundheitstelefon" sind keine Heilbehandlungen „Gesundheitstelefone" von Krankenkassen oder Patientenbegleitprogramme von Pharmaunternehmen sind keine Heilbehandlungen und damit nicht von der Umsatzsteuer befreit. Dieses wenig überraschende Urteil hat das Finanzgericht Düsseldorf gefällt. Anlass war die Klage eines Unternehmens, das telefonische Beratungsleistungen im Auftrag von Kassen und Pharmafi rmen erbrachte und der Ansicht war, dass diese als Heilbehandlungen einzustufen sind. Ein Grund unter anderem: Die Telefonmitarbeiter seien Ärzte, Krankenschwestern oder medizinische Fachkräfte. Das Gericht wies die Klage ab. Die Beratungen dienten nur der Information der Anrufer und seien nicht untrennbarer Bestandteil einer tatsächlichen Heilbehandlung. Auch die Beratungen, die der Prävention dienen, weisen keinen unmittelbaren Krankheitsbezug auf. Sie werden nicht aufgrund einer ärztlichen Verordnung oder im Rahmen einer Rehabilitations- oder Vorsorgemaßnahme erbracht und seien deshalb keine Heilbehandlungen — Lohn- und Gehalt Ankündigung der Elternzeit/geht nicht per Fax oder Mail Teilt eine Mitarbeiterin nach der Geburt eines Kindes mit, wie lange sie in Elternzeit gehen will, sollte sie dies ganz altmodisch auf Papier tun. Denn die Elternzeiterklärung ist nur dann gültig, wenn sie eine eigenhändige Unter21 22 schrift oder ein notariell beglaubigtes Handzeichen trägt. Fax oder Mail genügen dagegen nicht, so das Bundesarbeitsgericht. Die Folgen der Nichtigkeit sind gravierend: Wird das gesetzlich vorgeschriebene Schriftformerfordernis nicht eingehalten, besteht für die Mitarbeiterin kein Sonderkündigungsschutz. Ihr kann also während der vermeintlichen Elternzeit gekündigt werden. Umkleidezeiten müssen bezahlt werden bei starker Verschmutzung Das An- und Ausziehen von Berufskleidung im Betrieb zählt zur Arbeitszeit und ist entsprechend zu bezahlen, wenn es den Mitarbeitern nicht abverlangt werden kann, in den Berufsklamotten den Arbeitsweg zurückzulegen. Das ist nach Ansicht des Hessischen Landesarbeitsgerichts der Fall, wenn die Arbeitskleidung sehr auffällig ist, sie regelmäßig während des Dienstes stark verschmutzt wird und es deswegen aus hygienischen Gründen weder den Angestellten noch den Mitreisenden etwa in Bussen und Bahnen zuzumuten ist, sich in der Arbeitskleidung auf den Weg nach Hause zu begeben. Die Berufskleidung könne damit faktisch nur im Betrieb an- und ausgezogen werden. In diesen Fällen müssten Arbeitgeber die Umkleidezeit bezahlen, auch wenn die Nutzung der betrieblichen Umkleidestelle nicht vorgeschrieben ist, so die Richter. Monatliche Sonderzahlungen zählen beim Mindestlohn mit 8,84 € ab 01.01.2017 beträgt der gesetzliche Mindestlohn (8,50 Euro brutto je Stunde betrug er seit 2015) Seit seiner Einführung umstritten war, ob Sonderzahlungen wie Urlaubs- und Weihnachtsgeld bei der Ermittlung des Durchschnittslohns angerechnet werden müssen. Die Antwort des Bundesarbeitsgerichts lautet jetzt: Ja. Eine Anrechnung ist dann möglich, wenn die Sonderzahlungen „vorbehaltlos und unwiderrufl ich" jeden Monat zu einem Zwölftel an die Mitarbeiter ausgezahlt werden. Dann handele es sich um Entgelt für geleistete Arbeit, so die Richter. Damit kommt es darauf an, welchen Zweck die Sonderzahlungen verfolgen: Sind sie darauf gerichtet, die Arbeitsleistung zusätzlich zu vergüten, können sie auf den Mindestlohn angerechnet werden. Wer als Arbeitgeber sichergehen will, sollte sich unbedingt beraten lassen. Mindestlohn auch für Bereitschaftszeiten Der gesetzliche Mindestlohn gilt auch während der Bereitschaftszeiten. Das hat das Bundesarbeitsgericht entschieden. Die Begründung: Das Mindestlohngesetz unterscheide nicht zwischen normaler Arbeits- und Bereitschaftszeit. Geklagt hatte ein Rettungssanitäter, der vor dem höchsten Arbeitsgericht jedoch eine Niederlage einstecken musste, da seine Entlohnung für Vollarbeit und Bereitschaftsstunden den Mindestlohn von derzeit 8,84 Euro überstieg. Kein Einfl uss auf OPs: Freie Schwester wird als Arbeitnehmerin eingestuft Der Teufel steckt im Detail: Das gilt besonders bei Verträgen von Krankenhäusern mit Honorarärzten und Pfl egern, die als freie Mitarbeiter beschäftigt werden. Immer wieder stuft die Rentenversicherung solche Dienstverhältnisse als abhängige Beschäftigung und damit als sozialversicherungspfl ichtig ein. Im Falle einer selbstständigen Op-Schwester bekam die Rentenversicherung vom Sozialgericht Mainz jetzt Recht. Obwohl eine freie Mitarbeit intendiert sei, sprächen die tatsächlichen Verhältnisse gegen eine Selbstständigkeit, so die Richter. Zum Beispiel habe die Op-Schwester keinen Einfl uss darauf, wann konkret Operationen durchgeführt werden. Diesbezüglich habe sie sich in den Klinikbetrieb eingliedern müssen. Weiter habe sie im Krankheitsfall lediglich dem Klinikum absagen, sich aber nicht weiter um einen Ersatz kümmern müssen, wie dies auch bei normalen Arbeitnehmern der Fall sei. Außerdem sei im Op einheitliche Kleidung Pfl icht gewesen, so dass die Schwester nicht als „Freie" erkennbar gewesen sei. Beiträge für Praxis-Berufshaftpfl icht müssen angestellte Ärzte nicht versteuern 24 Die von der GbR gezahlte Berufshaft­ pfl ichtversicherung für die GbR ist kein Arbeitslohn – nur, wenn die GbR die Berufshaftplicht des AN zahlt. Klarstellung für angestellte Praxis-Ärzte: Sie müssen keine Lohnsteuern und Sozialversicherungsbeiträge zahlen, weil die Praxis für sich selbst als Personengesellschaft eine Berufshaftpfl ichtversicherung abgeschlossen hat. Wie der Bundesfi nanzhof (BFH) entschied, darf das Finanzamt solche Versicherungsbeiträge der GbR nicht als Arbeitslohn werten. Das gilt laut Gericht selbst dann, wenn der Versicherungsschutz sich auch auf Ansprüche gegen die Angestellten erstreckt. Die Erweiterung des Versicherungsschutzes diene der GbR dazu, alle Haftungsrisiken möglichst umfassend auf den Versicherer abzuwälzen. In einer Pressemitteilung stellt der BFH klar, dass aber dann lohnsteuerpfl ichtiger Arbeitslohn vorliegt, wenn die Gesellschaft die Beiträge für die Berufshaftpfl ichtversicherung der Angestellten übernimmt. Das konkrete Urteil betraf eine Rechtsanwalt-GbR. Die Entscheidung, betont der BFH, sei aber auch für andere Freiberufl er relevant. 25 Zu viel Urlaubsfeeling: Für Kur muss Urlaub genommen werden Angestellte haben während einer Kur nicht automatisch Anspruch auf Entgeltfortzahlung. Wenn die jetzt vom Bundesarbeitsgericht (BAG) bekräftigten Voraussetzungen nicht vorliegen, muss für das Kuren Urlaub geopfert werden. Laut BAG gibt es nur dann weiter Lohn vom Arbeitgeber, wenn die Kur zum einen „keinen urlaubsmäßigen Zuschnitt" hat. Zum anderen muss die ambulante Vorsorgekur von einem Sozialversicherungs- oder von einem sonstigen Sozialleistungsträger bewilligt sein und in einer Einrichtung der medizinischen Vorsorge oder Rehabilitation nach § 107 Absatz 2 SGB V durchgeführt werden. Im konkreten Fall wurde die Klage einer Frau abgewiesen, die auf Langeoog gekurt hatte: Das Kur- und Wellnesscenter dort er27 Fortbildungskosten, die die GbR für ihre Angestellten über­ nimmt, sind Betriebs­ ausgaben 28 füllte nach Ansicht des BAG nicht die Anforderungen an eine Einrichtung der medizinischen Vorsorge. Personalgespräche nicht mit kranken Mitarbeitern Sind Angestellte krankgeschrieben, müssen sie während der AU-Zeit nicht im Betrieb erscheinen, um dort mit dem Chef über „weitere Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten" zu reden. Laut Bundesarbeitsgericht ist es dem Arbeitgeber zwar nicht „schlechthin untersagt, mit dem erkrankten Arbeitnehmer in einem zeitlich angemessenen Umfang in Kontakt zu treten", wenn er ein berechtigtes Interesse hat. Der arbeitsunfähige Arbeitnehmer ist dann jedoch nicht verpfl ichtet, auf Anweisung des Arbeitgebers im Betrieb zu erscheinen - es sei denn, „dies ist ausnahmsweise aus betrieblichen Gründen unverzichtbar und der Arbeitnehmer ist dazu gesundheitlich in der Lage Weiterbildungskosten für Arbeitnehmer sind nicht lohnsteuerpfl ichtig Weiterbildungen sind wichtig. Viele Arbeitgeber zahlen deshalb ihren Angestellten die Fortbildungen, auch weil es in manchen Tarifverträgen so vorgeschrieben ist. Jetzt hat das Finanzgericht Münster – für Praxen und Apotheken erfreulich – entschieden, dass die Übernahme von Weiterbildungskosten nicht als steuerpfl ichtiges Arbeitsentgelt anzusehen ist. Das heißt, Arbeitgeber müssen darauf keine Lohnsteuer und auch keine Sozialabgaben abführen. Die Richter begründeten das Urteil damit, dass die Übernahme von Weiterbildungskosten überwiegend im eigenbetrieblichen Interesse liegt und damit nicht die Arbeitsleistung der Angestellten vergütet werden soll. Gericht: Wer zu spät den Lohn überweist, muss 40 Euro Schadenersatz zahlen Arbeitgeber, die ihren Angestellten nur unvollständig oder zu spät den Lohn auszahlen, müssen einen Pauschal-Schadenersatz von 40 Euro zahlen. Diese Ansicht vertritt zumindest das Landesarbeitsgericht (LAG) Köln. Grundlage für den pauschalen Schadenersatz ist der 2014 ins Bürgerliche Gesetzbuch eingefügte § 288 Abs. 5., bei dem es aber umstritten ist, ob er auf Arbeitslohnansprüche überhaupt anwendbar ist. Das LAG bejahte dies im Gegensatz zur Vorinstanz. Der Zweck der gesetzlichen Neuregelung, den Druck auf den Schuldner in Bezug auf pünktliche und vollständige Gehaltszahlungen zu erhöhen, spreche für die Anwendbarkeit, so die Richter. 30 Die Übertragung des eigengenutzten Hau­ ses unter Nießbrauch­ vorbehalt auf ein Kind bleibt steuerfrei 31 — Einnahmen-Überschussrechnung Betriebsausgaben: Geschenke müssen gesondert gebucht werden Bei Werbegeschenken gilt es aufzupassen, damit sie vom Finanzamt als Betriebsausgaben anerkannt werden. Das zeigt ein Urteil des Finanzgerichts Baden-Württemberg. Im konkreten Fall ging es um Kalender mit Firmenlogo, die ein Unternehmen an Kunden verschenkte. Das Gericht versagte der Firma, die Herstellungskosten als Betriebsausgaben abzuziehen. Der Grund: Die Ausgaben waren nicht getrennt von den sonstigen Ausgaben auf einem Konto gebucht worden. Dies sei laut Gericht nach § 4 EStG aber Voraussetzung dafür, dass die Aufwendungen abzugsfähig sind. Fazit: Werbegeschenke, die die Freigrenze von 35 Euro netto pro Jahr und Person nicht überschreiten, werden in der Buchführung separat als Geschenke gebucht. — Erbschaftsteuer Erbschaftsteuerbefreiung endet auch bei Übertragung unter Nießbrauchvorbehalt Wer ein Haus erbt, bleibt von der Erbschaftsteuer befreit, wenn er die Immobilie zehn Jahre lang „zu eigenen Wohnzwecken nutzt". Wird das Haus vor Ablauf der Zehn-Jahres-Frist verkauft, schlägt der Fiskus zu. Das gilt nach einer Entscheidung des Finanzgerichts Münster auch dann, wenn der Erbe das Heim unter Nießbrauchvorbehalt auf ein Kind überträgt. Für die Steuerbefreiung kommt es nicht nur auf die Selbstnutzung, sondern auch auf die Eigentümerposition an. Das stehe so zwar nicht ausdrücklich im Gesetz, ergibt sich laut Gericht aber aus dem Gesamtkonzept der Vorschriften zur Steuerbefreiung. — Sonstiges Gemischte Einkünfte können zu weniger Elterngeld führen Wer gemischte Einkünfte aus angestellter und selbstständiger Tätigkeit hat, für den berechnet sich das Elterngeld nicht nach dem aktuellen Einkommen aus den letzten zwölf Monaten vor der Geburt des Kindes. Zugrunde gelegt wird hier der letzte steuerliche Veranlagungszeitraum. Das Bundessozialgericht bekräftigte diese gesetzliche Regelung jetzt mit dem Hinweis auf die gewollte Verwaltungsvereinfachung. Sie sei auch dann anzuwenden, wenn dem Elternteil bei einem Vergleich der beiden Zeiträume ein Verlust von mehreren Tausend Euro entstehe. In dem konkreten Fall hatte die Klägerin Einkünfte aus einer Solaranlage erzielt, weshalb sie unter die „gemischte" Regelung fi el. 33 34 Ab 2017: Elektronischer Arztbrief wird mit 55 Cent gefördert Ab Januar bekommen Vertragsärzte für den Versand und den Erhalt eines elektronischen Arztbriefes (E-Arztbrief) 55 Cent. Grundlage für die neue fi nanzielle Förderung ist das E-Health-Gesetz. Der Betrag wird zwischen Empfänger (27 Cent) und Absender (28 Cent) aufgeteilt. Werden die neuen EBM-Ziffern 86900 oder 86901 berechnet, können für denselben Brief an denselben Adressaten nicht die bisherigen Kostenpauschalen 40120 bis 40126 abgerechnet werden. Weiter wurde für die Förderung eine fachgruppenabhängige Obergrenze festgelegt. Die Vergütung erfolgt extrabudgetär. — Pfl egeheime Pfl egeheim erbt – da wird nicht nur Erbschaft-, sondern auch Körperschaftsteuer fällig Erbt eine Pfl egeheim GmbH Geld von einem verstorbenen Heimbewohner, muss sie nicht nur Erbschaftsteuer zahlen, sondern auf diese Betriebseinnahme auch Körperschaftsteuer abführen. Eine unzulässige Doppelbesteuerung sieht der Bundesfi nanzhof darin nicht. Das Verfassungsrecht gebiete nicht, alle Steuern aufeinander abzustimmen und Lücken sowie eine mehrfache Besteuerung des gleichen Sachverhalts zu vermeiden, sagten die Richter. Sie betonten, dass bei Kapitalgesellschaften wie der GmbH auch „Vermögenszugänge aufgrund unentgeltlicher Zuwendungen", also Erbschaften, in den Bereich gewerblicher Gewinnerzielung fallen. Ertragssteuerrechtlich verfüge die GmbH nicht über eine außerbetriebliche Sphäre, in der keine Körperschaftsteuer fällig werde. — Kassenführung Kassenführung Ein besonderes Augenmerk wird bei den Betriebsprüfungen auf eine ordnungsmäßige Kassenführung gelegt. Einer nicht ordnungsmäßigen Kassenführung werden Einnahmen hinzu geschätzt. Das Einkommensteuergesetz und die AO enthalten entgegen der Auffassung des Finanzamts keine Verpfl ichtung zur Führung eines Kassenbuches für die Überschussermittlung nach § 4 Abs.3 EStG. Die Aufzeichnungspfl icht ergibt sich aus § 22 USTG, der nach § 140 AO unmittelbar auch für die Einkommensteuer wirkt (BFH Urteil vom 15.04.99 – IV R 68/98) Das Umsatzsteuerrecht übernimmt die allgemeinen Anforderungen an Buchführung und Aufzeichnungen, wie sie in den §§ 145,146 und 147 AO normiert sind (§ 63 Abs. 1 UStDV) Wird jedoch trotzdem ein Kassenbuch geführt, das nicht nur die Aufzeichnung der Einnahmen und –ausgaben beinhaltet, so ist der Steuerpflichtige an die strengen Regeln der Kassenführung gebunden. Diese sind: – Tägliche lückenlose Aufzeichnung aller Einnahmen und Ausgaben – Aufzeichnung der Einlagen und Entnahmen – Kassensturzfähigkeit – tägliche Zählung bei einer offenen Ladenkasse (Zählprotokoll) oder Z-Bons bei einer elektronischen Kasse – Keine nachträglichen Manipulationsmöglichkeiten bei einer elektronischen Kasse – Keine nachträglichen Möglichkeiten zum Ändern der Eintragungen Kassenberichte dienen primär der rechnerischen Ermittlung der Tageseinnahmen bei sogenannten offenen Ladenkassen. Die Ausgaben, Einlagen und Entnahmen werden täglich aufgezeichnet. Ein Kassenbuch ersetzt auch dann nicht den Kassenbericht, wenn in einer gesonderten Spalte bestände ausgewiesen werden. Die Kassenberichte dienen als Beweis für die Prüfung der Tageseinnahmen, wenn kein Kassenkontrollstreifen einer Registrierkasse als Beweisunterlage vorhanden ist. Der Steuerpflichtige ist nicht verpflichtet eine elektronische Registrierkasse zu benutzen. Es ist nicht zu beanstanden, wenn die kasseneinnahmen täglich in einer Summe in das Kassenbuch eingetragen werden. Dann muss aber das Zustandekommen dieser Summe nachgewiesen werden. Sinn und Zweck des Kassenberichts ist die nachvollziehbare, systematisch richtige Ermittlung der täglichen Bareinnahmen. Der Kassenbericht beginnt mit dem ausgezählten Tageskassenendbestand und endet mit den Tageseinnahmen. Im Laufe des Tages getätigte Barausgaben werden dem ausgezählten Tagesendbestand hinzugerechnet. Private Einlagen und der Kassenbestand des Vortages sind abzuziehen.

An dieser grundsätzlichen Verantwortlichkeit jedes einzelnen Arztes für die Richtigkeit seiner Abrechnungen ändert sich auch dadurch nichts, dass die Gesellschafter einer BAG die Abrechnung der von ihnen erbrachten Leistungen auf eines ihrer Mitglieder übertragen haben. Zwar sei die Gemeinschaftspraxis (beziehungsweise BAG) durch die gemeinschaftliche Ausübung der vertragsärztlichen Tätigkeit geprägt und stelle rechtlich eine Praxis dar. Dies ändere jedoch nichts am individuellen Pfl ichtenkreis ihrer einzelnen Mitglieder. Sollten sie – wie dieses in BAGs ja häufi g der Fall ist – diese grundsätzlich persönlich obliegende Aufgabe der Leistungsabrechnung auf einen der Gesellschafter übertragen, müssen sie durch geeignete (Überprüfungs-)Maßnahmen sicherstellen, dass sie ihrer Verantwortung weiterhin gerecht werden. Kommt es in einem Fall zu einer Haftung aufgrund sachlich-rechnerischer Richtigstellungen oder anderer gegenüber der BAG bestehenden Rückforderungen, trifft dies nicht alleine die BAG, sondern es besteht daneben eine Einstandspfl icht der einzelnen Gesellschafter, die jeder für sich in Anspruch genommen werden können. (Bundessozialgericht, Beschluss vom 28.09.2016 – B 6 KA 14/16 B) Berücksichtigung angestellter Ärzte im Rahmen der Plausibilitätsprüfung Nach einer Entscheidung des Sozialgerichts München (Urteil 11.10.2016 – S 38 KA 1611/14) ist die Auffälligkeit der Tätigkeitszeiten im Rahmen einer Plausibilitätsprüfung in einer BAG oder einem MVZ nicht arzt- sondern praxisbezogen zu ermitteln. Liegt eine Überschreitung vor, kann sodann auch eine arztbezogene Auffälligkeit (Zeitüberschreitung) überprüft werden. Die Höhe des Zeitprofi les für ein Quartal liege bei angestellten Ärzten ebenso wie bei niedergelassenen Vertragsärzten bei 780 Stunden pro Arzt und Quartal. Eine Differenzierung nach Vertragsärzten und angestellten Ärzten sei nicht vorzunehmen. Bei angestellten Ärzten mit halber Stelle liege die Grenze bei 390 Stunden. Bei der Ermittlung der maßgeblichen Werte für das Zeitprofi l eines angestellten Arztes kommt es auf die im EBM hinterlegten Werte oder auf die tatsächlich im EDV-System des MVZ oder der BAG erfassten Arbeitsstunden an. Keine Anstellung eines Arztes mit voller vertragsärztlicher Zulassung Das Sozialgericht Düsseldorf (Beschluss vom 28.09.2016 – S 2 KA 1445/16 ER) hat entschieden, dass ein Arzt neben einer vollen vertragsärztlichen Zulassung (voller Versorgungsauftrag) nicht noch zusätzlich für die vertragsärztliche Versorgung angestellt werden kann. In dem zugrundeliegendem 05 Keine Delegation von ärztlichen Leistungen bei Ermächtigung Fall hatte ein MVZ die Anstellung eines Facharztes mit einer wöchentlichen Arbeitszeit von 13 Stunden für den Anrechnungsfaktor 0,5 beantragt. Dieser Arzt war bereits in einer vollen Zulassung in einer BAG tätig. Das Gericht beruft sich dabei auf eine Entscheidung des Bundessozialgerichts (Urteil vom 03.12.2010 – B 6 KA 39/10 R), in der entschieden wurde, dass einer Doppelzulassung mit mehr als einem Versorgungsauftrag außer der bereits umfassenden Inpfl ichtnahme durch einen vollen Versorgungsauftrag insbesondere Gesichtspunkte der Bedarfsplanung und der vertragsärztlichen Honorarverteilung entgegenstehen würden. Zulassungsentzug eines Anästhesisten wegen mehrfacher fehlerhafter Honorarabrechnung Im Verfahren vor dem Sozialgericht Marburg (Urteil vom 07.09.2016 – S 12 KA 179/16) ging es um die Entziehung einer vertragsärztlichen Zulassung eines Anästhesisten wegen grober Verletzung der vertragsärztlichen Pfl ichten, insbesondere wegen verschiedener Honorarberichtigungen aufgrund zeitbezogener Plausibilitätsprüfungen. Die Klage des betroffenen Anästhesisten gegen die Entziehung wurde abgewiesen. Das Sozialgericht entschied wie folgt: 1. Weder die Zulassungsgremien noch die Gerichte sind verpfl ichtet, ein Zulassungsentziehungsverfahren wegen anhaltender staatsanwaltlicher Ermittlungen oder eines gerichtlichen Strafverfahrens auszusetzen. 2. Zulassungsgremien und Gerichte können sich bei einer Zulassungsentziehung wegen grober Pfl ichtverletzung auf bestandskräftige und nicht bestandskräftige Honorarberichtigungsbescheide berufen, ohne in eine detaillierte Prüfung einzutreten – jedenfalls dann, wenn es an der Offensichtlichkeit einer Rechtswidrigkeit der Bescheide oder an einem substantiierten Vorbringen des Vertragsarztes fehlt. 3. Eine Zulassungsentziehung aufgrund fehlerhafter Abrechnung in mehreren Quartalen mit einem Schaden in Höhe von wenigsten über 180.000,00 € ist nicht unverhältnismäßig. Ermächtigter Chefarzt darf Leistungen nicht delegieren In einem Urteil des Landessozialgerichts Niedersachsen-Bremen (Urteil vom 08.06.2016 - L 3 KA 28/13) ist ein ermächtigter Chefarzt zur Rückzahlung seines Honorars in Höhe von knapp 100.000,00 € verurteilt worden. Dem Chefarzt wird vorgeworfen, dass er im Rahmen seiner Teilnahme an der vertragsärztlichen Versorgung ärztliche Leistungen an ihm im Krankenhaus nachgeordneten Ärzte delegiert habe, wie zum Beispiel die Untersuchung von Patienten an Assistenz- und Oberärzte sowie teilweise auch an Arzthelferinnen. Dies stelle einen Verstoß des Chefarztes gegen das Gebot der persönlichen Leistungserbringung dar. Ein zur Teilnahme an der vertragsärztlichen VerHonorarrückforderung bei Vorteilsgewährung an Zuweiser 07 sorgung ermächtigter Chefarzt ist nicht berechtigt, sich zur Erbringung vertragsärztlicher Leistungen der Mitarbeiter anderer Krankenhausärzte zu bedienen. Honorarrückforderungen von Laborarzt wegen Vorteilsgewährung Ebenfalls vor dem Landessozialgericht Niedersachsen-Bremen (Urteil vom 08.06.2016 - L 3 KA 6/13) wurde ein Fall entschieden, in dem ein Laborarzt mit einer Urologin vereinbart habe, ihr für jede Überweisung von Untersuchungsmaterial 0,50 DM zu zahlen. Diese hatte ihm daraufhin in großer Zahl Überweisungen zukommen lassen, an denen er Honorar im sechsstelligen Eurobereich verdiente, während aufgrund der Vereinbarung jährlich mehrere Tausend Euro als Gegenleistung an die Einsenderin gezahlt wurden. Nachdem die kassenärztliche Vereinigung hiervon erfahren hatte, forderte sie vom Laborarzt einen Teil seines Honorars – knapp 300.000,00 € - zurück. Die Klage des Laborarztes hiergegen wurde vom LSG abgewiesen. Ein Laborarzt rechne rechtswidrig gegenüber der KV ab, wenn er Laborleistungen erbringe, nachdem er der überweisenden Vertragsärztin eine Gegenleistung für die Überweisung von Untersuchungsmaterial versprochen hat. Dies stelle einen Verstoß gegen das berufsrechtliche Verbot dar, für die Zuweisung von Patienten oder Untersuchungsmaterial ein Entgelt zu gewähren oder zu versprechen. Auch die Behauptung, mit der Zahlung von 0,50 DM pro Überweisung sei lediglich eine pauschale Erstattung von Versandkosten beabsichtigt gewesen, sei kein Glaube zu schenken. (Das Urteil ist noch nichts rechtskräftig). Anmerkung: Dieser Fall zeigt, dass die Frage der „Zuweisung gegen Entgelt" oder „Vorteilungsgewährung" nicht nur unter dem Aspekt der Strafbarkeit durch die Einführung der §§ 299 a, 299 b StGB zu beurteilen ist, sondern dass auch bei Fällen, die nicht unbedingt unter die Strafbarkeit fallen, ganz erhebliche Risiken für die Ärzte bei derartigen Konstellationen bestehen. Die Frage der Strafbarkeit sollte also nicht alleiniger Maßstab bei der Beurteilung der Grenzen der Zulässigkeit der Kooperation sein. Untervermietung von Räumen an Sanitätshaus in Arztpraxis In einem wettbewerbsrechtlichen Verfahren hat der Bundesgerichtshof (Urteil vom 16.06.2016 – I ZR 46/15) den Rahmen für zulässige Empfehlungen gegenüber Patienten wieder ein Stück enger gesteckt. Für einen Verstoß gegen das ärztliche Empfehlungsverbot gemäß der ärztlichen Berufsordnung reiche es bereits aus, wenn der Arzt (hier ein Orthopäde) dem Patienten von sich aus einen Erbringer gesundheitlicher Leistungen nahe legt oder empfi ehlt, ohne dass dafür ein hinreichender Grund vorliegt. Eine solche Empfehlung sei bereits darin zu erkennen, dass der Arzt im konkreten Fall Räumlichkeiten in der Praxis überlassen und Hinweisschilder in der Praxis geduldet habe. 09 Mindestens 3­jährige Anstellung bei Verzicht Elternzeit muss schriftlich beantragt werden Nach einem aktuellen Urteil des Bundesarbeitsgerichtes vom 10.05.2016 (AZ: 9 AZR 145/15) muss ein Arbeitnehmer, der wirksam eine Elternzeit beanspruchen möchte, für den Antrag eine besonders strenge Form wahren. In dem vom Bundesarbeitsgericht entschiedenen Rechtsstreit war einer Mitarbeiterin gekündigt worden. Die Mitarbeiterin hielt die Kündigung für unwirksam, da sie sich in Elternzeit befi nden würde. Allerdings ist die Elternzeit seitens der Mitarbeiterin zuvor alleine per Telefax beantragt worden. Das Bundesarbeitsgericht hat entschieden, dass für die Beantragung der Elternzeit gemäß Elternzeitgesetz die strenge Schriftform gemäß § 126 BGB zu wahren ist. Danach ist eine eigenhändige Unterschrift notwendig. Diese Form ist durch den Antrag per Telefax nicht gewahrt worden. Praxistipp: Es ist zu beachten, dass es gerade bei der Frage der Elternzeit aber auch stets auf den Einzelfall ankommt. Hat der Arbeitgeber auf das formal unwirksame Gesuch des Arbeitnehmers auf Elternzeit reagiert und die Elternzeit entsprechend bestätigt, dürfte sich der Arbeitgeber später nicht auf die Formunwirksamkeit des Antrages berufen (Gesichtspunkt von Treu und Glauben). Zur Nachbesetzung einer Arztstelle – Grundsatzurteil des BSG vom 04.05.2016 Verzichtet ein Vertragsarzt auf seine Zulassung, um in einem medizinischen Versorgungszentrum tätig zu werden, so ist eine Nachbesetzung dieser Arztstelle grundsätzlich nur dann zulässig, wenn der ursprünglich zugelassene Arzt zumindest drei Jahre im MVZ tätig gewesen ist. Im Einzelnen: Nach der Entscheidung des BSG vom 04.05.2016 (AZ: B6 KA 21/15R) stehen dem Vertragsarzt in einem gesperrten Planungsbereich drei Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten zur Verfügung, wenn er auf seine Zulassung verzichtet. Dieses sind zum einen der schlichte Verzicht auf die Zulassung oder die Durchführung des Nachbesetzungsverfahrens nach § 103 Abs. 4 SGB V. Bei der Durchführung des Nachbesetzungsverfahrens hat der Zulassungsausschuss für Ärzte vor dem Hintergrund der Bedarfsplanung die Möglichkeit, die Nachbesetzung gar nicht erst zuzulassen und ansonsten Einfl uss auf den Nachfolger auf den Vertragsarztsitz zu nehmen. Die dritte Möglichkeit, nämlich auf seine Zulassung zu verzichten, um als Angestellter bei einem Vertragsarzt oder in einem MVZ tätig zu werden, stelle eine Privilegierung dar, da hier eine gebundene Entscheidung des Zulassungsausschusses vorliegt („ist zu erteilen"). Diese Privilegierung sei nur dann gerechtfertigt, wenn der abgebende Arzt ernsthaft in dem MVZ beziehungsweise einer Vertragsarztpraxis tätig werden will. Dies wird hergeleitet aus der gesetzlichen Formulierung „um in einem medizinischen Versorgungszentrum tätig zu werden". Abschmelzen des Tätigkeitsumfangs möglich Hierfür sei erforderlich, dass zunächst einmal Personenidentität zwischen dem auf die Zulassung verzichtenden Arzt und dem dann angestellten Arzt besteht. Weiterhin muss der Umfang der Tätigkeit einer vollen Arztstelle entsprechen. Die vom Gericht nunmehr verlangte Dauer der Anstellung von drei Jahren folgert das BSG aus den Privilegierungen der angestellten Ärzte im Nachbesetzungsverfahren, wo ebenfalls auf drei Jahre Tätigkeit in der Praxis abgestellt wird. Welche Ausnahmen gibt es? Endet die Tätigkeit des Arztes, der unter Umwandlung seiner Zulassung in einer Anstellung tätig werden wollte, vor Ablauf von drei Jahren, hängt das Nachbesetzungsrecht des MVZ beziehungsweise der Praxis davon ab, ob nach den Umständen davon ausgegangen werden kann, dass der ursprünglich zugelassene Arzt zunächst zumindest drei Jahre im MVZ tätig werden wollte, diese Absicht aber aufgrund von Umständen, die zum Zeitpunkt des Verzichts auf die Zulassung noch nicht bekannt waren, nicht mehr realisieren konnte. Das kann etwa der Fall sein, wenn er erkrankt oder aus zwingenden Gründen seine Berufs- oder Lebensplanung ändern musste. Gegen den Willen zur Fortsetzung der vertragsärztlichen Tätigkeit im MVZ spricht hingegen, wenn der Arzt im Zuge des Verzichts auf die Zulassung bei der Beantragung der Anstellungsgenehmigung durch das MVZ schon konkrete Pläne für das alsbaldige Beenden seiner Tätigkeit entwickelt oder wenn das MVZ zu diesem Zeitpunkt schon Verhandlungen mit einer anderer Nachbesetzung der betroffenen Arztstelle mit interessierten anderen Ärzte geführt hat, die sich auf die unmittelbare Zukunft und nicht auf einen erst in drei Jahre beginnenden Zeitraum beziehen. Je kürzer die angestellte Tätigkeit des Arztes gewesen ist, desto höhere Anforderungen sind an den Nachweis der Umstände zu stellen, die die Absicht zur Ausübung zur angestellten Tätigkeit für eine Dauer von zumindest drei Jahren dokumentieren. Weiter lässt das BSG ein Abschmelzen des Umfangs der dreijährigen Tätigkeit zu. So lässt das Gericht ausdrücklich zu, dass ein Arzt zumindest ein Jahr in dem Umfang im MVZ tätig wird, in dem er zuvor als zugelassener Arzt an der Versorgung teilgenommen hat, dann seinen Beschäftigungsumfang in den beiden folgenden Jahren aber zum Beispiel jeweils um den Anrechnungsfaktor ¼ reduziert. Hier könnte dann eine stufenweise Nachbesetzung erfolgen. Übergangsfälle: Aus Gründen des Vertrauensschutzes soll die oben dargestellte 3-JahresGrenze erst für Nachbesetzungen gelten, bei denen die Umwandlungsanträge nach der Verkündung dieses Urteils erfolgt sind. In anderen Konstellationen können die Zulassungsgremien eine Einzelfallprüfung vornehmen. Weiterhin besteht ein Vertrauensschutz für bereits genehmigte Nachbesetzungen. Hat der Zulassungsausschuss die erstmalige Nachbesetzung einer Arztstelle, die ursprünglich aus der Umwandlung einer Zulassung beim MVZ entstanden ist, nach dem Ausscheiden des ursprünglich zugelassenen und angestellten Arztes aus dem MVZ bestandskräftig genehmigt, kann dem Antrag auf erneute Nachbesetzung dieser Stelle nicht entgegengehalten werden, dass die vorangegangene Nachbesetzung bereits zu Unrecht genehmigt worden sei. Auf eine bestandskräftige erteilte Anstellungsgenehmigung kann im Regelfall auch eine darauf folgende Nachbesetzung gestützt werden. Ausblick: Zunächst bleibt abzuwarten, wie der Zulassungsausschuss für Ärzte mit Übergangsfällen im Einzelfall umgehen wird. Im Übrigen wird zukünftig das „normale" Nachbesetzungsverfahren gemäß § 103 Abs. 4 SGB V wieder größere Bedeutung erlangen. Besonders betroffen sind auch solche Praxen, bei denen die Versagung der Nachbesetzung wegen Überschreitens der 140 %-Prozentigen Überversorgung. Diesen steht nunmehr der Weg über die Anstellung nicht mehr zur Verfügung. Solle eine Übergabe der Praxis über den Weg des Verzichts zugunsten einer Anstellung dennoch beabsichtigt sein, wird man sich auf die dreijährige Anstellungszeit einrichten müssen. Dieses kann ja auch ein gangbarer Weg sein, insbesondere wenn man die Möglichkeit des gleitenden Übergangs innerhalb dieser dreijährigen Phase mit einbezieht. Geänderte Rechtsprechung: Berufsgenossenschaft haftet für D-Arzt Der Bundesgerichtshof hat sich mit Urteil vom 29.11.2016 (AZ: Vl ZR 208/15) mit den Haftungszuständigkeiten zwischen Durchgangsarzt und Berufsgenossenschaft auseinandergesetzt. Hierbei hat der Bundesgerichtshof seine bisherige Rechtsprechung zur sogenannten „doppelten Zielrichtung" aufgegeben. In dem vom BGH entschiedenen Fall machte ein Patient nach einem Arbeitsunfall Schadensersatzansprüche gegen einen Durchgangsarzt (D-Arzt) geltend. Vorliegend wurde der Kläger nach einem Arbeitsunfall ambulant in einer Klinik, in der der Beklagte als Chefarzt und D-Arzt tätig war, untersucht. Als Art der Heilbehandlung wurde „allgemeine Heilbehandlung" angeordnet. Der Kläger wurde als arbeitsfähig erachtet. Später stellte sich heraus, dass im Rahmen dieser Erstversorgung ein Wirbelbruch übersehen worden ist. Die Berufsgenossenschaft gewährte daraufhin Verletztengeld und vorläufi ge Erwerbsminderungsrente. Mit der Klage machte der Kläger Schadensersatz- und Schmerzensgeldansprüche gegen den D-Arzt geltend. Die Klage ist abgewiesen worden. Bei der Entscheidung hat sich der Bundesgerichtshof ausführlich mit der Frage beschäftigt, wie ein Diagnose- oder Befunderhebungsfehler eines D-Arztes im Rahmen der Eingangsuntersuchung zu beurteilen sei. Der Bundesgerichtshof hat sich der Auffassung des Oberlandesgerichtes Schleswig angeschlossen, wonach für einen Fehler bei der 23 Eingangsuntersuchung sowie der Diagnosestellung alleine die Berufsgenossenschaft einzustehen habe. Begründet wird dies damit, dass durchgangsärztliche Untersuchungen, insbesondere notwendige Befunderhebungen zur Stellung der richtigen Diagnose, regelmäßig unabdingbare Voraussetzungen für die Entscheidung, ob eine allgemeine Heilbehandlung oder eine besondere Heilbehandlung erfolgen soll, seien. Die Befunderhebung und die Diagnosestellung bilden mithin die Grundlage für die der Berufsgenossenschaft obliegende, in Ausübung eines öffentlichen Amtes erfolgende Entscheidung, ob eine allgemeine Heilbehandlung ausreicht oder wegen der Schwere der Verletzung eine besondere Heilbehandlung erforderlich ist. Ansonsten würde es eine unnatürliche Aufspaltung eines einheitlichen Lebensvorganges darstellen, wenn man diese Maßnahmen zugleich als öffentlich-rechtlich und als privatrechtlich einstufen würde. Der BGH hat seine bisherige Rechtsprechung zur sogenannten „doppelten Zielrichtung" mit dem Urteil ausdrücklich aufgegeben. Sowohl die Diagnosestellung und die sie vorbereitenden Maßnahmen als auch die Erstversorgung durch den Durchgangsarzt sind mithin der Berufsgenossenschaft zuzurechnen. Dies schließt eine unmittelbare Haftung des Durchgangsarztes gegenüber dem Patienten aus. Praxistipp: Besonders zu beachten bei der Frage der Haftung ist in Zukunft mithin der Durchgangsarztbericht. In diesem Bericht trägt der D-Arzt selbst ein, ob die Erstversorgung durch den D-Arzt erfolgt ist oder nicht. Verjährung von Schadensersatzansprüchen Der Bundesgerichtshof hat sich in einem Urteil (Urteil vom 08.11.2016, AZ: Vl ZR 294/15) mit Fragen zur Verjährung von Schadenersatzansprüchen beschäftigt. Im vorliegenden Fall war unstreitig, dass wegen ärztlicher Behandlungs- und Aufklärungsfehler Schadensersatzansprüche wegen einer fehlerhaft durchgeführten Entbindung bestanden. Es ging vorliegend alleine um die Frage, ob die Ansprüche zum Zeitpunkt der Klageerhebung bereits verjährt waren. Die Klage auf Schmerzensgeldzahlung in Höhe von mindestens 40.000,00 € ist am 1. Oktober 2010 bei Gericht eingereicht worden. Die fehlerhafte ärztliche Behandlung erfolgte im November 2003. Zunächst stellte der Bundesgerichtshof fest, dass Ansprüche aus Behandlungsfehlern zu anderen Zeiten verjähren können als solche aus Aufklärungsversäumnissen. Im vorliegenden Fall begann die dreijährige Verjährungsfrist für Ansprüche aus Aufklärungsfehlern am 01.01.2007, da bereits im Jahr 2006 dem Geschädigten bei dessen Kenntnisstand die Erhebung einer Schadensersatzklage gegen eine bestimmte Person zumutbar war. Bezüglich der Haftung wegen Behandlungsfehler ist von einer Kenntnis aber erst dann auszugehen, wenn die dem Anspruchsteller bekannten Tatsachen ausreichen, um den Schluss auf ein schuldhaftes Fehlverhalten des Arztes als Patient muss bei Kopien aus Patienten­ akte Kosten erstatten 13 nahelegend erscheinen zu lassen. Da in den Vorinstanzen nicht genau zwischen Aufklärungsfehler und Behandlungsfehler unterschieden worden ist, ist zu der Frage, ob bezüglich des Behandlungsfehlers Verjährungsbeginn 2007 oder 2008 war, dies an die Vorinstanz zurückverwiesen worden. Bezüglich der Frage der Hemmung der Verjährung wegen außergerichtlicher Vergleichsverhandlungen ging der BGH, anders als die Vorinstanz, alleine von einer Hemmung von drei Monaten aus, was dazu führte, dass Ansprüche wegen Aufklärungsfehler bei Klageerhebung verjährt waren. Der BGH führte diesbezüglich aus, dass durch ein Schreiben der Haftpfl ichtversicherung, mit der Ansprüche als nicht bestehend zurückgewiesen werden, die Hemmung der Verjährung endete. Der Kläger konnte sich nicht auf die Rechtsprechung zu einem späteren Ende der Hemmung der Verjährung wegen „Einschlafens der Vergleichsverhandlungen" berufen, da die Haftpfl ichtversicherung vorliegend ausdrücklich sämtliche Ansprüche zurückgewiesen hatte. Abschrift der Patientendokumentation nur gegen Kostenerstattung Das Oberlandesgericht Saarbrücken hat sich mit einem Urteil vom 16.11.2016 (AZ: 1 U 57/16) mit der Frage beschäftigt, ob der Patient bzgl. von ihm geforderter Abschriften aus der Patientenakte für die Kosten vorleistungspfl ichtig ist. Vorliegend hat ein Arzt die von Patientenseite erbetene Übersendung von Patientendokumentation davon abhängig gemacht, dass ihm vorher Kopierkosten gezahlt werden. Der Patient hat daraufhin Klage auf Herausgabe der Behandlungsdokumentation Zug um Zug gegen Kostenerstattung geltend gemacht. Das Gericht weist in seiner Entscheidung darauf hin, dass die Klägerseite bzgl. der Kopierkosten vorleistungspfl ichtig war. Dem beklagten Arzt stand damit ein Leistungsverweigerungsrecht zu. Der Vorschussanspruch müsse alleine hinreichend deutlich gemacht werden. Eine förmliche Rechnungstellung, insbesondere im Hinblick auf den Adressaten der Rechnung, ist nicht Voraussetzung für die Geltendmachung des Vorschussanspruches bzw. des daraus folgenden Leistungsverweigerungsrechtes. Insbesondere ist in diesem Zusammenhang auch unbeachtlich gewesen, dass vorliegend der Prozessbevollmächtigte des Klägers in seinem ersten Aufforderungsschreiben mitgeteilt hatte, dass er die Kosten übernehmen würde. Eine solche Übernahmeerklärung führt alleine dazu, dass dem Arzt ein zusätzlicher Kostenschuldner erwächst. Eine solche Zusage der Kostenübernahme führt nicht dazu, dass ein Zurückbehaltungsrecht des Arztes entfallen würde. Formnichtiger Heil- und Kostenplan kann Zahlungsanspruch auslösen Der Bundesgerichtshof hat mit Urteil vom 03.11.2016 (Az.: III ZR 286/15) entschieden, dass trotz formnichtigem Heil- und Kostenplan der Zahlungsanspruch des Zahnarztes gegen den Patienten im Einzelfall wirksam sein kann. Im vorliegenden Fall nahm eine Zahnärztin eine gesetzlich krankenHeil- und Kostenplan: Formvorschriften unbedingt einhalten versicherte Patientin auf Zahlung des Eigenanteils für zahnprothetische Leistungen in Anspruch. Die Zahnärztin hat zwei Heil- und Kostenpläne erstellt. Ein Plan hatte die Erbringung reiner kassenzahnärztlicher Leistungen ohne Eigenanteil zum Gegenstand, während der andere Plan zusätzliche Arbeiten vorsah und in der Anlage einen voraussichtlichen Eigenanteil in Höhe von knapp 7.000,00 € auswies. Die Beklagte nahm beide Pläne mit nach Hause und reichte schließlich den einen Eigenanteil ausweisenden Heil- und Kostenplan bei ihrer Krankenkasse zur Genehmigung ein. Den mit dem Genehmigungsvermerk versehenen Plan gab sie sodann an die Zahnärztin zurück, ohne jedoch die in dem Planformular und der beigefügten Anlage vorgesehene Unterschrift zu leisten. Die fehlende Unterschrift wurde von der Zahnärztin beziehungsweise ihrem Personal nicht bemerkt. Nach Erbringung der zahnprothetischen Leistung verweigerte die Patientin die Zahlung ihres Eigenanteils mit der Begründung, dass keine schriftliche Vereinbarung getroffen worden sei. Der Bundesgerichtshof hat die Patientin zur Zahlung des Eigenanteils verurteilt. Zwar lag keine wirksame Honorarvereinbarung vor, da der der Behandlung zugrunde liegende Heil- und Kostenplan nicht der Form der GOZ genügt hatte und daher nichtig war. Das Gericht hat jedoch entschieden, dass die Berufung der Patientin auf die Formunwirksamkeit gegen den Grundsatz von Treu und Glauben verstoße. Hiernach ist der Formmangel unbeachtlich, wenn die Berufung auf den Formmangel eine unzulässige Rechtsausübung darstellt. Die Rechtsprechung erfordert hierfür strenge Kriterien, die vorliegend jedoch erfüllt waren. Die Voraussetzungen einer besonders schweren Treuepflichtverletzung lagen vor, da die Patientin sich über die geplanten Leistungen und die Kosten umfassend informiert hatte und sie sich bewusst für die teurere Behandlungsalternative entschieden habe. Im vorliegenden Fall kam hinzu, dass die Patientin bereits bei Überreichung des Heilund Kostenplans die erbetene Unterschrift lediglich aus dem Grunde zurückgestellt hatte, weil sie den Heil- und Kostenplan nochmals in ihre Muttersprache (die Patientin kam ursprünglich aus Albanien) übersetzen lassen wollte. Nach alledem war das Verhalten der Patientin in hohem Maße widersprüchlich und treuwidrig zu werten, so dass sie sich auf die Formnichtigkeit der Vereinbarung nicht berufen konnte. Der Bundesgerichtshof wertete zudem das Büroversehen in der Praxis, in der die Mitarbeiterin die fehlende Unterschriftsleistung der Patientin nicht bemerkte, nicht als grobe Fahrlässigkeit. Praxistipp: Zu beachten ist, dass der Bundesgerichtshof in der vorliegenden Entscheidung ergänzend auch dazu ausgeführt hat, dass bei formnichtigem Heil- und Kostenplan Ansprüche aus anderem Rechtsgrund (ungerechtfertigte Bereicherung, Geschäftsführung ohne Auftrag) ausgeschlossen sind. Die Zahnärztin konnte im vorliegenden Fall ihren Honoraranspruch alleine aufgrund des treuwidrigen Verhaltens der Patientin durchsetzen. Es ist daher stets penibel darauf zu achten, dass die Formvorschriften gemäß GOZ für den Heil- und Kostenplan eingehalten werden, um den Zahlungsanspruch gegen den Patienten nicht zu gefährden.

The school building is designed to be energy efficient and sustainable, with large windows that allow natural light to enter the classrooms while minimizing heat loss. The building also features a green roof, which helps to reduce the urban heat island effect and provides insulation for the building. José Leiner relate le cheminement du Lycée technique Nic.-Biever à travers les dernières vingt années, marquées par des changements de structures dans l’Education nationale, la mutation profonde de la ville de Dudelange et l’évolution de la société en général. En montrant la connexion du monde scolaire avec son entourage, il dessine sa vision de la place du lycée dans sa cité. Le Lycée technique Nic.-Biever (LTNB) se retrouvait dans une situation d’impasse après les années éprouvantes d’un engagement soutenu pour son modèle pédagogique du cycle postprimaire harmonisé (1979-1984). Ses visions et projets pédagogiques n’ayant pas abouti, le sentiment de sécurité qu’aurait pu procurer une expérience positive faisait défaut; les seules nouvelles structures de l’enseignement secondaire technique ne servaient guère de garde-corps suffisamment rassurant. Dans le contexte de l’évolution de la politique de l’Éducation nationale, qui, en dehors de nouveaux cadres légaux, prônait les développements et projets éducatifs au niveau local, le LTNB, dès le début des années 1990, devait se forger une nouvelle identité: il fallait tout d’abord à la direction et aux enseignants clarifier leur engagement dans une institution qui, plus que jamais, avait besoin de retrouver, tout à la fois, confiance et crédit pour s’affirmer et se repositionner dans le paysage des établissements de l’enseignement postprimaire. **A la recherche d’une identité** À cette époque, quelque 80 enseignants étaient en charge d’environ 600 élèves. La mission, comprise et par la direction et par les enseignants, était d’autant plus évidente que les faibles effectifs des classes du cycle moyen risquaient de mettre en question l’existence même d’un lycée qui se donnait comme objectif de mener ses élèves jusqu’à l’aboutissement de leur formation dans l’enseignement secondaire technique (EST); quant à la division inférieure de l’enseignement secondaire (ESI), elle frôlait le seuil du minimum vital. De toute évidence, le LTNB n’était plus perçu comme une adresse hors concurrence pour les jeunes de Dudelange et des environs. Le lycée se lança donc à la recherche d’une identité perdue dans sa cité. Alors que les relations plutôt opaques entre l’administration centrale et les lycées ne favorisaient guère les liens entre établissements (qui auraient pu laisser engager des coopérations et des échanges avec des lycées voisins pour certaines voies de formation), il était évident que les lycées se retrouvaient en concurrence. Dans cette logique de compétition, le nombre d’élèves inscrits allait constituer l’argument le plus important non seulement pour l’obtention d’autres ressources (allant de moyens budgétaires à l’autorisation de nouvelles voies de formation), mais encore pour la reconnaissance voire l’image effective de l’école et de ses partenaires. Sur le plan interne, il était clair qu’il n’y aurait pas de vraie assurance pour notre propre avenir sans que nous ayons gagné un véritable crédit externe. Notre lycée mobilisait donc ses forces et se fixait de nouveaux horizons: devenir, dans sa cité, un lieu d’apprentissage à facettes multiples. Des projets pédagogiques et culturels, des activités parascolaires et des échanges scolaires se redéployaient pour accompagner les élèves dans leur cursus scolaire; les projets PETRA, plus tard COMENIUS, initiés par l’Union européenne, permettaient à nombre d’élèves et de professeurs de se lancer dans la dimension européenne de leurs projets éducatifs, avec l’effet secondaire non négligeable de se faire remarquer endéans et par-delà nos propres frontières nationales. Le développement de l’offre scolaire Dans un premier projet d’établissement, il s’agissait de réfléchir à la place de l’école qui lui est propre dans la société: cette place la met en contact avec les familles qu’elle assiste dans leur tâche éducative, avec les entreprises vers qui elle oriente les futurs preneurs d’emploi, avec le monde associatif qu’elle épaulé dans sa mission de socialisation et d’encadrement des jeunes. L’objectif premier de ce projet était l’assistance des élèves dans l’assimilation des matières scolaires et l’encouragement vers des activités culturelles ou de loisir partiellement en collaboration avec des associations locales; pour ce faire, on introduisait l'horaire dit "aménagé" (qui depuis lors est devenu l'horaire courant dans nos lycées). Les premiers contacts avec les entreprises industrielles de la région préparaient le terrain à un échange avec l'espace a priori tellement différent de l'école. Conséquence: la création de places de stages pour nos élèves et des visites d'entreprises. Une plate-forme fertile pour la sensibilisation réciproque fut le "mini-sommet économique local" lancé dans les années 1990 par la Ville de Dudelange avec la participation de tous les acteurs importants de la vie socioéconomique. Peu à peu, notre lycée réussissait ainsi à se mettre en relief dans sa ville et dans sa région. Les effectifs d'élèves et le nombre d'enseignants augmentaient et permettaient une offre scolaire plus complète, en mesure de satisfaire les intérêts des jeunes de la région. Cette offre scolaire comprend d'un côté les classes de l'enseignement secondaire jusqu'au début de la formation spécialisée (actuellement en classe de 3e) et de l'autre l'enseignement secondaire technique. Ce dernier rassemble toutes les classes du cycle inférieur y compris l'enseignement complémentaire devenu le régime préparatoire en 1994, toutes les formations du régime technique (ce pourquoi le Collège d'enseignement moyen a bien été créé, il y a 39 ans!) ainsi que les formations du régime de la formation de technicien et du régime professionnel dans lesquels il s'est spécialisé au cours des années (voir ci-dessous l'organigramme de l'offre scolaire). Le lycée se voit confirmé dans sa progression étant donné que les premières classes terminales atteignent le diplôme brigué: | Enseignement secondaire | |-------------------------| | 7e-4e [classique et moderne] | | Enseignement secondaire technique | |----------------------------------| | Cycle inférieur | | Régime préparatoire | | Régime technique | | - Division administrative et commerciale | | - Division technique générale | | - Division des professions de santé et des professions sociales | | Régime de la formation de technicien | | - Division administrative et commerciale | | Régime professionnel | | - Division de l'apprentissage artisanal: section des métiers de l'électricité | | - Division de l'apprentissage commercial: section des employés de bureau | dès 1992 le CATP des employés administratifs et commerciaux, en 1994 le CATP des électriciens, en 1997 le diplôme de technicien en formation administrative et commerciale et enfin en 2002 le diplôme de fin d'études secondaires techniques du régime technique, division technique générale. Le LTNB est donc devenu, pour sa cité, un pôle de formation attrayant. **Le problème des infrastructures** Cependant, victime de son succès, le LTNB touche assez vite aux limites de ses capacités d'accueil. La loi de 1992 intégrant toutes les classes de l’ancien enseignement complémentaire – jusqu’alors sous la responsabilité des communes – dans l’EST a fini par provoquer le dépassement de ses capacités. Seule issue pour parer à l’urgence: investiture d’un bâtiment annexe dans un immeuble désaffecté sur le site du Laminoir de Dudelange actuellement friche industrielle, avec cependant l’engagement formel de l’État pour un agrandissement et la rénovation du LTNB sur le site principal. Après d’âpres négociations, cette décision fut prise en 1996; les réflexions relatives à la taille et à l’offre scolaire du futur LTNB purent démarrer. Ce fut encore l’idée du pôle de formation qui allait déterminer le concept et le programme de construction. D’emblée, ce projet devant créer les infrastructures pour quelque 1.400 élèves dans les formations envisagées s’annonçait d’une envergure impressionnante. Un lycée à vocation multiple comme le LTNB nécessite un espace brut considérable pour suffire aux exigences modernes pour l’enseignement général, les cours en salles spéciales, en laboratoires, en ateliers, sans oublier l’éducation sportive, des infrastructures pour les services internes, de la conciergerie à la bibliothèque, en passant par le SPOS, le restaurant scolaire ou encore des salles de réunions. Il est compréhensible que d’aucuns aient songé à proposer une toute nouvelle solution, rebâtir le lycée à un nouvel emplacement “extra muros”. La place du lycée dans la ville Sur ce point, les vues des responsables et de la Ville de Dudelange et du LTNB se trouvaient vite concordantes: accueillir le lycée dans sa cité, c’est une façon d’exprimer sa volonté d’œuvrer pour la cohésion sociale. Les jeunes, nos enfants, méritent de grandir, dans tous les sens du terme, parmi nous; n’est-ce pas la mission de la collectivité entière de les percevoir, de les accompagner, d’être en relation avec eux. Les mettre à l’écart parce qu’ils peuvent déranger (oui, c’est parfois le cas!), c’est nier ses responsabilités, c’est abdiquer face à l’avenir. Alors, mettons en pratique ce proverbe africain qui dit “Il faut un village pour éduquer un enfant”. Ainsi, comme les conditions matérielles étaient remplies, le LTNB devait garder sa place là où il était, à son adresse rue du Parc. CENTENAIRE DIDDELENG LE LYCÉE DANS SA CITÉ (Page de gauche en haut) Le théâtre scolaire renaît au LTNB en 2006 avec la représentation de "Romeo a Juliette" (Page de gauche en bas) 1999 : le projet transfrontalier "Sol mineur" confronte les élèves avec le passé industriel de leur région Dans le cadre de l'action "Contre l'Oubli", des élèves réalisent en 2005 l'exposition "Mach dir ein Bild vom Krieg" Le projet du rétablissement du "Thilleweier" initié en 1995 par la ville de Dudelange engage les élèves du LTNB et du Collège de Hettange-Grande CENTENAIRE DIDDELENG LE LYCÉE DANS SA CITÉ Le projet prenait forme, petit à petit. L’agrandissement du site grâce au rachat de l’Ecole Wolkeschdall, puis l’achat de plusieurs jardins privés et enfin, l’extension du centre sportif René-Hartmann par la Ville de Dudelange (terminée en 1998) avec l’aménagement de la gare de bus sur le parking, permettaient la réalisation du concept arrêté par l’administration des Bâtiments publics. Entamer des travaux de grande œuvre d’une telle envergure sur le site même où le lycée continuait toutes ses activités, demandait des mesures de préparation et d’accompagnement non négligeables: l’aménagement de pavillons provisoires, parsemés dans tous les coins possibles, des déménagements successifs des équipements ainsi que des changements de fonctions au fur et à mesure que des bâtiments devenaient opérationnels. A la date actuelle, la dernière phase des travaux est en cours, et la fin de cette entreprise herculéenne est annoncée pour la rentrée en septembre 2009! Alors, les murs nouveaux pourront-ils résoudre tous nos problèmes? L’équipement dernier cri sera-t-il l’outil miraculeux pour répondre aux questions de l’instruction et de l’éducation? Comme le milieu éducatif est en constante évolution, ce ne sont pas les questions rhétoriques qui nous font avancer, ni dans la formulation des grandes questions éducatives actuelles, ni a fortiori, dans notre recherche des attitudes et moyens que l’Ecole (avec grand E) doit se donner pour préparer l’avenir. A l’heure actuelle, le LTNB vit encore une phase très sensible de son évolution notamment sur trois plans importants. Premièrement, les effectifs actuels de quelque 1.350 élèves enseignés par 160 enseignants ainsi que l’hétérogénéité des formations offertes restent un défi pour le développement cohérent du lycée, deuxièmement, l’autonomie partielle accordée aux établissements de l’enseignement post-primaire appelle à la mobilisation de toutes nos sensibilités et compétences pour nous adapter à ce que d’aucuns appellent “la souplesse requise par l’économie du savoir actuelle” [Regards sur l’éducation – Les indicateurs de l’OCDE 2004] et finalement, l’échéance de 2009 annonçant la fin de dix ans de chantier, de solutions provisoires et de déménagements successifs, constitue pour notre communauté le défi majeur du réinvestissement d’un nouvel espace de vie et de travail. La qualité de l’école: une mission pour toute la communauté La communauté scolaire de notre lycée a bien compris l’enjeu et relève le défi. Alors que l’échange entre les différents groupes d’acteurs (enseignants, parents d’élèves et élèves) est de tradition au LTNB, la loi de 2004 qui énonce pour la première fois dans l’histoire de l’école luxembourgeoise une forme concrète de partenariat en précisant les missions et attributions de chaque intervenant, a déclenché un processus de réflexions communes sur le devenir de notre lycée. Et les partenaires scolaires au LTNB partagent l’acceptation que l’éducation scolaire, bien qu’elle relève d’abord de l’autorité de l’Etat, est une responsabilité largement partagée à différents niveaux et entre différents acteurs. Voilà pourquoi il est tellement important que les stratégies pour le développement scolaire reposent sur le dialogue, la participation et le partage des responsabilités. Ainsi donc, **le lycée, dans sa cité, est une organisation en partenariat**. A l’heure actuelle, les partenaires scolaires au LTNB sont engagés dans un nouveau projet d’établissement dont l’intitulé “Regards croisés – progressons ensemble” reflète à la fois l’ambition et le désir de réaliser en commun l’avenir de notre lycée. Que les objectifs à atteindre soient visés par toute la communauté, cela ne peut être ni un hasard, ni un luxe; cela ne peut être que l’expression de la volonté d’une communauté de se constituer en “école apprenante” dans le sens “que le travail en commun des partenaires de la communauté scolaire est producteur de cohérence et d’efficacité scolaire.” (Philippe Meirieu) Et ce n’est pas seulement pour ces soucis évidents d’efficience interne et de qualité que l’Ecole a besoin de l’union de tous ses partenaires et de toute alliance. En fin de compte, pris dans la question du dosage entre ouverture et fermeture de son lieu privilégié et protégé de l’apprentissage, il s’agit d’éviter le démantèlement de l’Ecole, de même que le ballottement de nos valeurs, approches et méthodes pédagogiques au gré de modes ou de pressions majoritaires. Notre mission étant claire et définie, l’Ecole se doit d’insister sur la nécessaire (re)centration du rapport qu’ont les élèves avec le savoir, à un haut niveau d’attente et d’exigence, de même que sur le partage des valeurs sociétales qui rendent possible notre mode de vie démocratique. Pour que l’Ecole puisse réussir ce projet collectif qui lui donne son sens, il est à souhaiter qu’on lui accorde son autorité et la reconnaissance qu’elle mérite. C’est ainsi qu’elle se trouvera être **membre à part entière dans sa cité**. --- 1 Pour rappel: l’enseignement moyen, pour lequel il fut fondé, était remplacé par les structures du nouvel enseignement secondaire technique qui englobait dès lors l’ancien enseignement professionnel dans lequel notre lycée n’avait guère d’expérience 2 Loi du 22 juin 1989 portant réforme de l’enseignement secondaire; Loi du 4 septembre 1990 portant réforme de l’enseignement secondaire technique et de la formation professionnelle continue 3 A ce constat venait s’ajouter qu’à l’époque, vu l’évolution constante vers la hausse du coût de l’Education nationale, le ministère commençait à mettre en place des instruments visant une gestion plus stricte et plus contrôlée des différents lycées et devant le spectre, général au niveau national, de divers facteurs contribuant à la hausse des effectifs comme le taux de natalité, le solde migratoire, la durée moyenne de la scolarisation, etc. 4 Loi du 3 juin 1994 portant création du régime préparatoire de l’enseignement secondaire technique 5 Pour le LTNB, il s’agit des communes de Dudelange, Rumelange, Kayl, Bettembourg et Roeser 6 Le bâtiment *Wolkeschdall* entièrement rénové fut prêt pour la rentrée scolaire en septembre 2003, le nouveau bâtiment A en septembre 2005 7 Depuis la fin des années 1990, le concept d’autonomie (partielle) des établissements scolaires commence à se préciser au Luxembourg tout comme dans d’autres pays. Ainsi, depuis 2005, l’autonomie financière a été rendue possible par une loi autorisant la constitution de Services de l’Etat à gestion séparée. Une forme d’autonomie pédagogique autorise les lycées à disposer de 10% des leçons de l’horaire officiel afin de les investir dans les points forts tels qu’ils sont perçus localement 8 Loi du 25 juin 2004 portant organisation des lycées et lycées techniques

From the Desk of the President of WAIMH By Campbell Paul, Melbourne, Australia President of WAIMH, Associate Professor, Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne, University of Melbourne, Murdoch Children’s Research Centre Seeing our complex world through the eyes of the infant…and responding… I would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the unceded land on which I’m working today. I am on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation who have cared for this land in Australia, nurturing a continuous culture for many thousands of years. I’d like to honour and pay my respects to Elders past, present, and emerging. Across Australia it is a sad time with the passing last month of Archie Roach, who was an amazing musician, songwriter, and advocate for first Nations People. Archie was one of many Australian First Nations people who grew up separated from their parents and family because of colonialism and oppressive government policy. Archie Roach, through his music and powerful and evocative songs, was able to instil an understanding of country and culture, and of the profound injustice experienced by generations because of the removal of infants and children from their parents and community (‘Took the Children Away’ Roach, A. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL_DBNkkcSE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL_DBNkkcSE)). His words however, do provide hope and positive direction. Archie worked vigorously with First Nations communities and agencies as well as the broader Australian and international communities to try and undo and repair some of these profound injustices. Archie helped us see through the child’s eyes the experience of babies, young children, and their families, suffering trauma through oppression and forcible separation. Archie Roach, and people of First Nations communities around the world, in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia have much to teach us about the cruelty set upon infants and young children through racism, colonisation and misuse of power. In responding to infants’ emerging awareness of self and any emotional and developmental distress, it behoves us to look both within, and Editorial Staff Editor Maree Foley, Switzerland Associate Editors Azhar Abu-Ali, United Arab Emirates Chaya Kulkarni, Canada Patricia O'Rourke, Australia Jody Todd Manly, United States Intern Editor Salisha Maharaj, South Africa Production Editors Neea-Leena Aalto, Finland Minna Sorsa, Finland Perspectives in Infant Mental Health is a quarterly publication of the World Association for Infant Mental Health. ISSN 2323-4822. All opinions expressed in Perspectives in Infant Mental Health are those of the authors, not necessarily those of WAIMH’s. Permission to reprint materials from Perspectives in Infant Mental Health is granted, provided appropriate citation for source is noted. Suggested format: Perspectives in Infant Mental Health 2022, Vol 30 (2). Beyond the “nuclear family” and draw on the resources of the extended family and other key people in the baby’s network of care. Sadly, too often, the emotional and relationship needs of babies seem to be secondary to those of adults. At our hospital, the Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne, we are currently reviewing our approach to mental health and well-being in the paediatric hospital context and reviewing what it really means to deliver family centred care. This means real and genuine engagement and cooperation with parents, their representatives, and others with lived experience of mental ill-health and distress. On a recent brief trip to the UK and Europe I was privileged to meet with colleagues in Innsbruck, Austria, who are working closely with children, parents, and their community networks where parents experience mental ill-health (Goodeyer et al., 2020). A concomitant challenge for infant mental health clinicians and our adult perinatal mental health colleagues is to develop closer clinical and research collaborations. Miri Keren is leading a group within the World Psychiatric Association to foster just these collaborations. As professionals working with infants, young children, and their families we are in a unique position to advocate for the best outcome for the social and emotional development of the world’s infants. Across the globe there is intensification of conflicts and war, natural disasters, climate change and long-standing social and racial inequalities. Infants are especially vulnerable in these circumstances (Keren et al., 2019). There are more infants and children as refugees than there has been in living memory. We have an ongoing task to help infants and young children and their parents experiencing these profound inequalities. How can we support and help infants and their parents towards optimal development? It may seem like we’re facing an impossible task. But infant mental health as a discipline has made huge developments over the last decades since the first infant mental health world congress was held in Portugal in 1980. Pioneers such as Winnicott, Bowlby, Spitz, Fraiberg, Stern, Brazelton, Lebovici, Trevarthen, Emde and so many others, have set very strong foundations for our work. They observed, researched, and revealed how the baby jumps into their relational world from the very beginning. It is crucial for us to try and see things through the eyes of the infant. Acting across different modalities, we must provide a voice for the baby and toddler who are in situations of distress and despair. Within the broad membership of WAIMH we have seen some exciting developments in learning, in clinical interventions, training and research. In a new collaborative webinar training initiative with *Infant and Early Mental Health Promotion* (*IEMHP*), a program of SickKids, Toronto, we are privileged to hear from a broad range of current experts in the field of infant mental health. Improving access to training has been a major focus of WAIMH. The WAIMH collaboration with Dr Chaya Kulkarni and her colleagues at Infant and Early Mental Health Promotion and Prof Kaija Puura and Tampere University, has produced the amazing 2022 online seminar series “*Laying the Path for Lifelong Wellness*” ([https://imhpromotion.ca/Learning-Centre/Expert-Lectures/Lecture-Series-2022](https://imhpromotion.ca/Learning-Centre/Expert-Lectures/Lecture-Series-2022)). We hope you’ve all been able to subscribe and access some of the 15 seminars delivered by exceptional people in our field. From the comfort of my home in Melbourne I have enjoyed hearing the many presenters of the seminar series, who are sharing their thoughts, ideas, research, excitement, passion and above all commitment, to the mental health of infants and families. Alicia Lieberman, Arietta Slade, Diane Philipp, Joy Osofsky and others describe important evidence-based interventions. One powerful common theme is our need to do more to address the profound inequalities which children and families face in many countries around the world. The global Covid-19 pandemic has had severely adverse, ongoing, and unequal impacts on health, psychological and developmental growth of children and families in less well-resourced communities in all our countries. Relationship trauma and injustice exist in all our communities, and we need to address the impact of social, racial, and economic inequalities. It seems that every country has its own tragic systemic ghosts and shame from the present or distant past, whereby the rights of infants and families have been shattered or violated. The WAIMH Board and the Executive have been working at ways to support such communities. Our colleagues at Zero to Three through the Irving Harris Foundation, previously published some important infant mental health practitioner guidelines, ‘Tenets to Address Social Inequalities and Injustice.’ (See Perspectives, 2013 Seymour et al.) There have been some very innovative and effective interventions addressing the mental health needs of infants and families at risk, in countries less well-resourced, which can provide models to adapt with other communities (eg Suchman et al., 2020). WAIMH has a working group whose goal is addressing racism and inequality within the infant mental health clinical research, publication, and implementation arena. Astrid Berg is leading a WAIMH Global Crises group to support our mental health colleagues working with parents and infants in communities affected by the terrifying experiences of active conflict, war, persecution, and natural disaster. The recent floods in Pakistan for example, constitutes high loss of life and huge disruption of the safety and welfare of thousands of infants and families. The WAIMH Dublin 2023 Congress provides another major opportunity for us to increase our collaborative understanding of the real threats to mental health and development which faces dislocated, traumatised, and frightened infants and their families. We enthusiastically invite you to come to Dublin and share your therapeutic interventions and innovations for infants and families experiencing trauma, loss, and major mental ill-health. (https://www.waimh2023.org/) In your work with families and communities there will be a wide range of social cohesion and social resources and capital. Within every community there will be infants and parents who are suffering mental ill-health and disturbed emotional development. For the Dublin Congress the Scientific Program Committee is very keen to hear of your work within your community because we can learn from everyone engaged with infants and families. We hope that everyone will feel they can share their work. You can submit presentations through either of the Clinical or Scientific streams. The Congress theme is “Early Relationships Matter: Advancing Practice, Policy, and Research in Infant Mental Health” and we anticipate that the Congress presentations will demonstrate the essential intertwining of each of these three areas. I had the opportunity recently to spend two weeks in Europe and I met WAIMH colleagues in London, including Dilys Daws, the founder of AimH UK, from whom I’ve learnt so much about infant parent psychotherapies. I met with other infant mental health colleagues in Cambridge, Zurich, Innsbruck, and Vienna. Cambridge was the venue for the 25th anniversary of the Brazelton Centre UK, “With one voice. How babies around the world are bringing us together”, and the International NBAS and NBO Network Meeting. We had a lot to share, and a lot to catch up on in our exploration of therapy with the newborn baby and parents. Kevin Nugent from Boston who developed the NBO, was honoured. He will be in Dublin next year as a keynote speaker. Other keynote speakers for Dublin are Brenda Jones Harden, David Oppenheim and Nim Tottenham. International travel is now very possible and meeting up in person is an important part of building and maintaining our infant mental health connections and networks. We look forward to seeing very many WAIMH colleagues and friends in Dublin next year, to hear presentations of your work at the Congress, and to work towards further innovative, equitable, accessible, and effective interventions for infants and families.

Dear colleagues and friends, Summer has passed here in the Northern hemisphere and we are starting to prepare for winter – hoping it won’t be too cold. This year we’ve had unusually high temperatures with drought here in Europe while other countries like Pakistan are suffering from floods, and yet others have had major wildfires. As our President Campbell Paul writes in his column: “Across the globe there is intensification of conflicts and war, natural disasters, climate change and long-standing social and racial inequalities. Infants are especially vulnerable in these circumstances”. Helping infants and young children to develop a sense of safety and supporting their mental health globally, and particularly in war conditions, is a big task for us all. Here in Finland we have an official called the Ombudsman for Children. It is an autonomous and independent authority that promotes the realization of the rights and best interest of children. Each year since 2018 the Ombudsman for Children has organized telephone interviews of 400 six-year-olds on some current topics affecting children. The children are randomly selected from all parts of the country, and informed consent for the interview is asked for both from the parents at the beginning of the phone call and then from the children. The six-year-olds have proven to be good informants and almost all have enjoyed being interviewed. The results have been published each year in the Lapsibarometri (Child Barometer) report. This year’s topic was safety. According to the children’s responses, safety meant the presence of familiar people and things in their everyday life. The full report with more detailed results will be published in December this year. Most of Finnish six-year-olds live in safe and stable conditions. However, it probably does not surprise any of us, that results from studies with young children affected by armed conflicts or natural disasters also emphasize the importance of parents for children’s wellbeing. Secure attachment to parents seems to increase resilience in young children (Al-Yagon et al., 2022). Parents’ presence in frightening situations, their reassurance and support in dealing with fear and anxiety and possibilities for playing seem to reduce children’s fears (Paryente & Kalush, 2020). Delvecchio et al. (2020) studied the coping strategies of preschool children during the Covid-19 pandemic. They found that young children sought affection from the parents, seemed to accept the situation and also wanted to avoid talking about the virus or pandemic. In her paper, Sudeshna Chatterjee, (2018) emphasizes the significance of play for children’s coping, adaptation and resilience in situations of crisis. In a nutshell, in all crisis situations the presence of at least one parent or other secure attachment figure, daily routines and possibilities for play should be provided to all infants and young children. Many papers on scientific and clinical knowledge, and examples of how families have been supported have been published in the abstract books of earlier WAIMH World congresses, the Infant Mental Health Journal and in Perspectives for Infant Mental Health, resources that we all can utilize. The 18th WAIMH World Congress to be held from 15–19th July, 2023 in Dublin, Ireland is now less than a year away. The submission of abstracts is now open until 14th of October, 2022. This time we have separate submission portals for scientific and clinical abstracts. We hope that this solution will encourage researchers and clinicians to submit their work for the Congress. We also aim to make it clearer in the Congress Program which presentations are research presentations and which are clinical. The Office staff is working together with the Local Organizing Committee chairs Catherine Maguire and Audrey Lonergan and the professional congress organizer InConference concerning the practicalities and management of the World Congress. Our main priority is to get the registration portal opened very soon. At the Dublin Congress we will continue our Sponsor a Delegate tradition that started at the Cape Town Congress. You can support the participation of our colleagues from low and middle low income countries easily when you register for Dublin. I am also really happy to be able to tell you that the first volume of the WAIMH eBook is now being finalized and will be published soon. The members of the eBook project group, WAIMH Past President Miri Keren, Maree Foley, Deborah Weatherston, Patricia O’Rourke and Kaija Puura are already working on the second volume. The WAIMH eBooks are based on articles from issues of The Signal and Perspectives in Infant Mental Health that the group has chosen on different themes to form chapters of the eBooks. The members of the eBook group have written short synopses of the chosen articles and supplemented the chapters with introduction and conclusion sections.

Recently there has been increased interest in RSC with IECMH program supervisors, organizational leaders, and policymakers, but questions remain about the defining characteristics and implementation of RSC with these professionals (Amulya, 2004; Hilden & Tikkamaki, 2013). This paper explores a three-year RSC project that served such leaders in Tennessee, USA. Considerable attention is given to the unique presentation of the: 1. Parallel process, 2. Ghosts in the Agency, and 3. Six characteristics that contribute to defining the concept of Reflective Leadership as it applies to emerging IECMH Leaders. The Tennessee First Five Training Institute (TFFTI) In 2019, Tennessee launched the Tennessee First Five Training Institute (TFFTI), a 12-month intensive workforce development project designed to build clinical Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health (IECMH) capacity throughout the state. TFFTI was developed as a response to the growing need for clinical services for children from birth through five to support the state’s growing Safe Baby Court Team. Prior to 2019, Tennessee had a limited history with evidence-based dyadic interventions for children from birth to 72 months (Peak et al., 2021). TFTI is unique not only in its intersection of multiple IECMH trainings, but also in its emphatic concentration on organizational development and leadership support. TFTI selects participants for the annual training cohort based on organizational applications that require the participation of organizational leadership. Annually, six organizations are selected who each identify three to four clinical staff and two organizational leaders for participation. Clinical participants (n=22) and organizational leaders (n=12) engage in year-long parallel training tracks to support the development of IECMH services within their organization (Figure 1). The organizational leaders engage in bimonthly reflective consultation calls, complete an IECMH-focused reading syllabus, and participate in two respective planning summits in the fall and spring of each cohort. Leaders also complete Organizational Readiness for Change Assessments (ORCAs) (twice a year), to assess organizational shifts as a result of participation (Helfrich et al., 2009). Reflective Supervision/Consultation (RSC) Selected readings provided leaders with this foundational definition of reflective supervision/consultation (RSC), ‘a relationship that aims at creating a climate in which both the client and the helper’s needs are being considered, so that the effectiveness of the intervention is being optimized’ (Costa, 2006, p. 124; Heller, 2012, p. 201). RSC offered a routine space to invite slowing down and consideration of multiple perspectives in problem-solving RSC, is a relationship for learning (Pawl, 1995). Within RSC, a relationship between the supervisor and supervisee is intentionally co-created through regular, routine blocks of time in which reflection on a range of clinical and programmatic topics may be thoughtfully considered. Whereas Reflective Practice may be embodied in a variety of activities, RSC is its own separate activity to promote the reflective capacity of the supervisee. Among providers of IECMH services, RSC has been found to increase reflective capacity, decrease staff turnover, and decrease staff experience of secondary trauma (Paradis et al., 2021; Osofsky, 2009). Consistent with this definition of RSC, TFTI organizational leaders had an opportunity for reflective practice, defined as the process of carefully considering the qualities and characteristics of one’s ideas and/or actions that go beyond the simple application of professional knowledge (Schon, 1987; Heller, 2012). Within RSC, organizational leaders, thoughtfully considered programmatic changes, set up spaces for thought and questioning without the expectation of answers, and engaged in thoughtful pauses during all logistical meetings. In recent years, considerable efforts have focused on defining the characteristics of RSC that differentiate it from other styles of clinical supervision. These differentiating qualitative aspects are best defined through the Reflective Interactions Observation Scale (RIOS) which identifies five essential elements: understanding the family story, holding the baby in mind, professional use of self, parallel process, and reflective alliance, and five collaborative tasks (describing, responding, exploring, linking, and integrating) (Figure 2) (Watson et al., 2016). The RIOS acts as a guiding framework to acknowledge the complexity of RSC and to highlight the intention of this separate, honored, space. **TFFTI: Engaging Leadership in Reflective/Supervision Consultation** To help promote sustainability in the reflective practice that is foundational for IECMH workforce development, TFFTI’s intensive focus on leadership participation was intended to address the attrition that often occurs in learning collaboratives, to bolster organizations embodiment of IECMH principles beyond front-line staff, and to create sustainability for IECMH services and reflective practice beyond the 12-month learning collaborative. What has emerged far exceeds those original goals, as a rich, cohesive, group of leaders have found new ways of leading, new ways of being through COVID-19, and new opportunities for statewide collaboration from their participation in Reflective Consultation. Of note, this group elected to refer to this cooperative relationship as “consultation” rather than “supervision” as there were no implications for administrative or clinical oversite between the Consultant and the participants. It was felt that the term consultation better communicated a collegial, voluntary, relationship rather whereas “supervision” was felt to connote oversight and a power differential. --- **Figure 1.** TFFTI Sample Training Schedule (Peak, A., Kronenberg, M., Morelen, D., Norona, C. R., Frankel, K., & Webster, A. (2021). *Being with…By Zoom?: Tennessee’s story of continuing IECMH workforce support and development in the time of COVID-19.* *ZERO TO THREE Journal* 41(4)). Twenty organizational leaders, including CEOs and Division Directors, from across Tennessee have participated in the three cohorts. The majority of participants have been women. It is important to note that the leaders of color have been minimal, which parallels the few leaders of color within the limited early childhood behavioral health sector. Each cohort begins with a Fall Summit that invites participants to build upon their understanding of RSC and to develop “road maps” for their identified organizational goals. These goals are unique to each organization and range from adding diagnoses from the DC:0-5™ (Diagnostic Classification of Mental Health and Developmental Disorders of Infancy and Early Childhood) into their Electronic Health/Medical Record (EHR/EMR) to forming workgroups, to increasing IECMH referrals (DC:0-5, 2016). In the early development of the Organizational Leaders RSC cohort, there were many shared apprehensions about engaging transparently and establishing authentic conversations regarding difficult topics. Many of the participating organizations often competed for grant and programmatic monies and were concerned that sharing staff difficulties or frustrations with organizational policies could negatively impact their work. In lieu of sharing from individual experiences, the cohort began with a syllabus of readings on organizational well-being, organizational trauma, and the role of leadership in workforce sustainability (Vivan et al., 2017). Selma Fraiberg once stated that working with young children and families was a little like having God on your side (Emde, 1987). In the process of Reflective Consultation, the progress forward often feels a bit the same. The participants came ready to identify similarities between their own experiences of leadership and the educational content. The group began to collectively identify factors that they believed were connected to their own staff’s vicarious trauma and staff turnover which led to considering how these staff concerns resulted in difficulties in providing the quality of services with model fidelity that these leaders desired. As conversations progressed, leaders began to identify their frustration over their inability to control the services being provided to families, to buffer staff from the ever-changing landscape of mental health in COVID-19, and the increased acuity of symptoms with which families presented during the pandemic. This intentional scaffolding of reflective capacity has been repeated across each cohort. While members are invited to remain a part of the group even if their organization chooses not to participate in the next cohort, group participation does change with each annual cohort. Each fall, the process of applying to participate in TFTI is repeated, the Summit serves as a kick-off event, and the group regresses slightly in the vulnerability of their conversations, returning to scheduled readings as they resume the process of meeting new individuals and building trust amongst themselves. Notably, this process has not taken quite the length of time in the most recent two cohorts as it did with the initial cohort. Following the initial cohort, some participants remained as new participants joined, contributing established relationships to anchor the addition of new relationships. As Figure 2. Reflective Interactions Observation Scale (Watson, C. L., Harrison, M. E., Hennes, J. E., & Harris, M. M. (2016). Revealing "The Space Between": Creating an observation scale to understand Infant Mental Health reflective supervision. Zero to Three, 37(2), 14-21). is often the case with group Reflective Supervision between a supervisor and direct service providers, the experience of trust amongst existing members and the experience of being in supervision with the consultant provides a solid foundation to form these new relationships as members join the group. **Ghosts in the Agency** The conversations that emerged around the difficulties of staff oversite and support during COVID-19 were vital turning points not only in the group’s ability to engage in RSC, but also in their ability to see themselves as co-creators of the reflective space. One conversation stands out as pivotal in the group’s process and their shared reflective vocabulary. The group consistently referenced the idea of “Ghosts in the Nursery” (Fraiberg et al., 1975) after the assigned reading as it resonated with the organizational trauma that was historically observed in several organizations. Participants told stories of reactive policy implementation after very specific events or of “legendary” actions by staff that were being retold years after the staff exited the organization. The leaders were able to name their own process of decision-making out of a sense of scarcity and referenced connections to historical layoffs and staff conflict from many years prior as internal motivations for their responses to staff and programmatic needs. From that discussion, it was named that if there were ghosts and angels in the nursery then there must also surely be ghosts and angels in our organizations. This idea connected to the readings around organizational trauma and also created a powerful connection between the leaders’ daily lived experiences and IECMH theory. It was a moment when the depth of the vocabulary being used matched the depth of the emotion felt by leaders navigating the unseen and often unnamed forces at work in their respective organizations. As is often the case in RSC, the ability to identify the presence of such ghosts allowed participants to pause and think critically about their present interactions in the workplace. Participants were able to engage in grounding exercises to support themselves and each other in considering if their current efforts at management were relevant to current concerns of the organization or if alternative supports would better achieve desired outcomes and sustainability. Defining and frequently naming the presence of ghosts also allowed for the defining and naming of angels in the agency (Liebermann et al., 2005). With this connecting language, leaders felt included as part of the broader IECMH system, able to ground to the needs of the moment, acknowledge and understand the ongoing impact of the “ghosts” in their organization, and reflect on their ability to show up and be fully attuned with their staff in their current system. **Parallel Process** This powerful connection permitted the recognition of an expanded parallel process. In the context of clinical work, the parallel process is often thought of as a connection between the infant/young child to the caregiver, to the service provider, and to the reflective supervisor. Jeree Pawl best sums up the parallel process with “do unto others as you would have others do unto others” (Pawl & St. John, 1998). Much like ripples in water or stacking toys, the parallel process draws an image that each relationship between the infant/young child, the caregiver, and the service provider impacts the other relationships around it. In considering the parallel process through a leadership lens, additional layers of the parallel process became clearer through RSC. It allowed leaders to visualize interactions between the agency administrator, supervisor, and service provider as filtering down to the baby or filtering up from the baby, through the service provider, to the supervisor and agency leaders. In one such example, a leader processed frustrations with staff experiencing low productivity amid an ever-increasing wait list for services with the agency. The staff reported an increase in no-shows and cancellations and an increase in irritability among families who were returning to office-based services. Through RSC and careful consideration of the parallel process, the leader was able to recognize an increase in staff stress following a return to the office from prior work-from-home policies related to COVID-19 that aligned with increased stress in families who were returning to public places and increased staff in young children who had not been in public spaces for a significant portion of their lives. In addition to layers reaching to organizational climate, the parallel process was also noted to have greater breadth at a systems level. Leaders began to note correlations in staff reports of feeling heard and decreases in the perceived sense of client acuity. While the connections were not always so clearly delineated, observing and giving words to the experience was impactful on the leaders’ sense of efficacy with their staff. These interactions also paralleled what we know to be effective with RSC between supervisors and direct service providers—that reflective supervision can help buffer against the stressful impacts of the work (Frosch et al., 2019). **The Leader in the Family System** The naming and defining of ghosts in the agency also supported the need for increased definition and contextualization of both the work that was occurring within the Organizational Leaders’ RSC group and the work we were inviting new members to as the group evolved and expanded across cohorts. Additionally, leaders all had some number of clinical staff engaged in their own RSC and frequently had questions about how that RSC process was similar, or different, or how RSC as a general process develops. The group questioned, “How does reflective practice relate to a different style of leadership?” and “Who am I as a leader as a result of participating in this RSC process?” These questions lead to a frame for considering RSC from the perspective of the organizational leader and a clear definition of the contributing attributes of Reflective Leadership. Typically, RSC is an individual or group space that is regular, relationship-focused, and collaborative in which a supervisor supports supervisee(s) to better understand themselves in the context of the work, to better understand the family they’re serving, and to better understand the connection between the two (Heller, 2012; Shea et al., 2020). As outlined previously, this RSC space intends to utilize the five essential elements and five collaborative tasks outlined within the RIOS, including understanding the family story. With organizational leaders, the “family story” to be understood has often been the story of the organization itself. These “family stories” have also included the story of how the organization understands its role in providing services, supporting families, and building an IECMH workforce. The “family story” is also called back to the expanded parallel process. Leaders were able to consider this analogy and identify within the “family” of their organization what their role might be and how dynamics between themselves and others might be reminiscent of typical family conflicts. Additionally, “the baby” referenced in the RIOS presents differently in RSC with leaders. This “baby” is often the most vulnerable perspective in the conversation: a family voice that has gone unheard, an overwhelmed staff that has gotten lost in the attempt to meet programmatic goals or the involvement of other systems and organizations that may have been left out of strategic planning conversations. Consistently within this RSC working with organizational leaders, giving voice to their experiences and helping them to connect those experiences with IECMH direct services facilitated powerful shifts in their reflection and their dedication to systems support for IECMH services. **Understanding Race and Equity in Reflective Spaces of Leadership** The organizational leaders’ call to remember the “baby” and understand the “family story”, has also served as our call to think critically about race and equity within our work. While these conversations are necessary for each of our participants to reflect on individually, the organizational leaders’ cohort is also in a critical space to deeply consider how programs both challenge and uphold systems of racist oppression. Many RSC calls focused on acknowledging the overrepresentation of white service providers serving an overrepresentation of families of color. The leaders have also consistently noted the lack of colleagues of color within the group itself and the majority of white supervisors throughout the participating organizations. The “family story” of historical trauma was both an ever-present ghost in the organizations and a reminder that with time, effort, and listening to those who live this “story”, that the “story” itself has hope for change. The leaders’ cohort also worked to acknowledge that listening and holding hope were insufficient in addressing the systemic bias and contributions to systemic racism within their respective organizations. The leaders strongly held to Tenets 8, 9, and 10 from the Diversity Informed Tenets for Work with Infants Children and Families, taking time to focus resources on systems change (Tenet 8), making space and open pathways (Tenet 9), and to advance policy that supports all families (Tenet 10) (Frankel et al., 2019). The RSC space allowed opportunities for the leaders to consider ways that job descriptions, position titles, screening and hiring processes, and benefits packages participated in that systemic oppression and worked to create concrete plans to change those areas of concern. Individual organizations incorporated these action items into their “roadmaps” to identify the steps their organizations could take in moving toward greater inclusivity. **Defining Reflective Leadership** Shared language and identifying connections between existing concepts and the experience of leadership were key to establishing the leaders’ RSC group, developing group cohesion, and maintaining participation. The organizational leaders’ cohort found ways to shift definitions or to consider the application of concepts through a systems lens, such as the discussion of ghosts in the agency and the expanded parallel process. However, this group struggled to embody a definition of *Reflective Leadership* and *Reflective Organizations*. While previous articles discussing Reflective Leadership in the IECMH world do exist, participants felt that the leadership demands of COVID-19 and remote work left the existing literature feeling as though it was missing something (Parlakian & Siebel, 2001; Amulya, 2004; Hilden & Tikkamäki, 2013; Goker & Bozkus, 2017; Schmelzer & Eidson, 2020). As the cohort consulted articles and blogs from Industrial/Organizational Psychology and Harvard --- **Figure 4. Reflective Leadership: A Two-Part Definition.** Business Review, there were many concepts and conversations that were connected to Reflective Practice or that sometimes were even referred to as Reflective Practice, and yet missed many of the key facets that Reflective Practice embodies within IECMH work. For example, a regular space to process challenges with a consistent reflective supervisor. Gökler and Bozkus (2017) in their discussion of Reflective Leadership, acknowledge the need for shifts in leadership frameworks in response to changes in our broader world. This review of available information led to the development of a two-part definition of Reflective Leadership for the Spring Summit. This definition was developed to ground the group to the shared themes and vision that they had communicated throughout the biweekly reflective consultation calls. The definition was an aspiration to encompass not only what leaders were doing, but also what they sought as part of their contributions to their personal and organizational development. Reflective Leadership in its two-part definition includes a) Reflection in Leadership and b) Reflection as Leadership (Figure 4). Reflection in Leadership utilized the four types of reflection as defined by Vance and Reynolds (2009) as anchoring points to consider ways in which leaders engage in reflection with their colleagues and staff in an effort to move forward with programmatic vision, expectations, and goals. Reflection in Leadership (Vance & Reynolds, 2009) Vance and Reynolds identify the concepts of critical reflection, productive reflection, public reflection, and organizing reflection as ways for leaders to consider how they invite conversation within their organization, how they responded when concern or praise is raised, and how staff within the organization might feel as a result of their involvement in these processes (Figure 5). While these four types of reflection helped build the leaders’ sense of efficacy with communication, they did not reach the depth of the relational aspect that RSC embodies. These four definitions also left the cohort wondering how leadership is different when RSC is implemented and held as a personal priority. The need to address these two experiences resulted in the development of Reflection as Leadership as an additional component for this definition. Reflection as leadership Reflection as Leadership identifies six characteristics; empathy, humility, striving for diversity, seeking equity, transparency, and community, that act as guiding tenets. Much like the Diversity Tenets, these six characteristics are not boxes to be marked as completed, but qualities and goals to be worked towards consistently throughout one’s leadership career (Frankel, Njoroge, & Norona, 2019). Like an image of a small child holding many balloons, these six characteristics act as strands to be held in mind, acknowledged when they’ve been let go of, and regained with the help of others as quickly as possible. Additionally, the characteristics also called to mind the RSC practice of spotlighting which acknowledges the need for a provider’s priority and focus to shift and change in response to the situation at hand (Heller, 2012). The characteristic of Empathy is best summarized through Brene Brown’s quote “Empathy has no script. There is no right way or wrong way to do it. Its simply listening, holding space, withholding judgement, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredibly healing message of ‘You’re not alone.’” (2015, p. 91). The characteristic of empathy in leadership, as in life, requires that we show up and listen to what others are telling us and to sit with their emotions. It does not require that we change our minds in our leadership decisions or that we shift direction in programmatic goals, but it does call us to be present with the emotions of those implementing the change. Humility encourages the utilization of self-awareness, of limitations of ourselves both as humans and leaders, and for leaders to build their reflective capacity to know those limitations. Humility in context further encourages the Leader to acknowledge when their strengths or weaknesses might contribute to organizational growth or struggle, to acknowledge when they don’t have the answers to the problem at hand, and to be willing to ask for help from staff or others in moments when... the attributes of others would be better suited to move the work forward. Striving for Diversity was intentionally worded in this combination as Leaders within this group recognized that Diversity itself was not the endeavor, but that rather the work was of addressing racial inequities in leadership positions, making space and opening pathways to allow for greater representation within systems, and to recognize diversity in various forms of race, ethnicity, country of origin, and ability status. The wording of this characteristic also allows it to stand as a call to action, a reminder that the work will never be complete, but that the success of brown and black colleagues, families and children, is central to the success of all staff, all families, and all children. Likewise, Seeking Equity challenges leaders to consider how access impacts service delivery, staff retention, staff engagement in RSC, retention of families in services, family success by program, etc. Highlighting equity as access also encourages leaders to consistently hold in mind the “baby.” To acknowledge that all situations have a “baby,” a perspective or person in a position of disparity calls for leaders to slow down their decision-making process and be intentional about the intended and unintended consequences of those decisions. The characteristics of Transparency and Community round out the six characteristics included in Reflection as Leadership. Transparency requires Leaders to acknowledge their own emotions within the experience of leadership, to share those emotions as appropriate with staff, and to openly acknowledge moments of uncertainty and where there is a lack of answers. Transparency is not oversharing personal experiences or burdening staff with details of potential struggles that have not yet fully come to light. It is however the process of creating an inclusive experience where the characteristics of empathy and humility are verbalized and shared throughout the organizational hierarchy. Lastly, the characteristic of Community holds that leading with a reflective stance ultimately means not leading alone. The characteristic of community, this sense of togetherness, and the acknowledgement of shared humanity is a key aspect of RSC as a practice. The Leaders who participated in TFFTI repeatedly commented on how different their work felt because they felt less alone. The sense of Community also promoted our group’s awareness that the situations they were navigating were often the result of Ghosts in the Agency and not their own shortcomings as individuals. Community allowed them to gain perspective on situations, hear the “family story,” hold the “baby” in mind, and sit in the hard work of beginning race and equity journeys for themselves and on behalf of their programs. Community allowed many of our participants a gathering place of support and shared vision for the first time in their leadership tenure. Discussion As with RSC with clinical providers, the RSC space with organizational leaders continues to emphasize the personal experience of the leader themselves, their ability to hold the perspective of the team they are supervising, and how the interconnection between those perspectives impacts the work with infants, young children, and families (Schmelzer & Edson, 2020). While not discussed in this article, considerable data measures, such as the Freiburg Mindfulness Inventory (FMI) (Walach et al., 2006) and the Curiosity and Exploration Inventory-II (CEI-II) (Kashdan et al., 2010), have been taken with the Leaders who have participated in TFFTI for these three cohorts. TFFTI adapted the Organizational Readiness for Change Assessment (ORCA) (Helfrich et al., 2009) to focus on the implementation of IEMCH concepts and evidence based-practices in an effort to measure the impact that support for leaders would have on organizational outcomes. While not discussed in this article, those outcomes have been notable and support that the work of RSC with leaders, defining the work of leadership in IECMH settings, and creating the framework of Reflective Leadership has had an impact on the leaders, the staff, and their broader organizations. Over the duration of the three-year project, participants have increased their ability to engage in vulnerable conversations about things they initially expressed reluctance to discuss, such as: discussing staff concerns, addressing organizational decisions that they disagreed with, and thinking collaboratively about how organizations could work together to improve the provision of services for infants, young children and their families and care for the IECMH workforce across the state. Further efforts are needed to replicate these concepts with other cohorts of leaders in various geographical settings and from other sectors to identify consistencies and deviations from the experiences noted here. Additional data collection and evaluation should also be considered to identify the individual change in the reflective capacity of leaders over the duration of their participation in Reflective Supervision. Investigating the differences in the content and delivery of RSC with leaders would also be of considerable value to the field much as the RIOS helped to identify the core components of providing RSC with direct care staff. Figure 6.1. TFFTI Cohort 1 ORCA Pre/Post. Conclusion RSC is a cornerstone for IECMH direct practice across the continuum of IECMH services. However, its utilization with programmatic, organizational, and policy leaders has been limited to date. This article explores the application of the clinical concepts of ghosts in the nursery (Fraiberg et al., 1975) and parallel processes to organizational leaders and in turn, proposes a working understanding and definition of Reflective Leadership. Preliminary consideration for data collection methods is also discussed. While the experience has been both relationally powerful and quantitatively impactful for the current participants, more work is necessary to define reflective organizations and to consider how the reflective capacity and cultural embodiment of reflective practice might be measured within organizations. Additionally, greater detail is warranted to explore the confluence of Reflection in Leadership and Reflection as Leadership as the culminating characteristics of Reflective Leadership within IECMH service systems.

The views of non-clinical staff who participated in an Infant Mental Health (IMH) Training Day in a Child and Family service Cork, Ireland: A window into the general public perspective regarding infant mental health and wellbeing By Isobel de Bürca, Catherine Maguire & Alasdair Ross, Ireland We would like to sincerely thank both the staff and management at Childhood Matters for taking part in this evaluation. Introduction This paper describes a one-day Infant Mental Health (IMH) workshop which was held for all staff at Childhood Matters, irrespective of their professional role. Childhood Matters is an NGO in Cork, Ireland. The training day was also evaluated. Forty-seven staff attended the workshop and data from thirty evaluation forms is reported. Of these thirty, nine were by staff who were from a non-clinical background (administration, horticulture, security etc). This paper focuses on the evaluation data provided by the non-clinical staff. Although a small sample, it was felt that these were most representative of the general public perspective regarding infant mental health and wellbeing. As such, there was potential to learn about gaps in service awareness and overall public awareness within the Irish context. In analysing this evaluation data, this paper reports on three overarching themes concerning the ongoing task of IMH awareness and promotion regarding early childhood social and emotional development so that this knowledge is on par with what is already known about physical development to the Irish public. The organisational and country context Childhood Matters is a non-profit organisation located on the outskirts of Cork city, Ireland. It is made up of a number of different services inclusive of a parent and infant residential unit which provides parenting capacity assessments, a community family support programme, a creche, a preschool, a teen parents programme, a back-to-education programme and an employment support scheme. The organisation provides child and family services which are aimed at supporting and promoting positive childhood outcomes, developing and understanding parenting capacity and building overall family resilience, contributing to healthier and more sustainable communities. Childhood Matters aims to provide services that support and promote the optimal health and well-being of families at the earliest possible stage. The Childhood Matters staff body is made up of a wide range of disciplines ranging from an executive team to early childcare providers and horticulturalists. Every year, Childhood Matters connects with over 1000 children through their community and residential services. The service recognises the importance of highlighting the area of Infant Mental Health to staff, families, and the wider community. The service has a Senior Clinical Psychologist and Infant Mental Health specialist affiliated with the Irish Association for Infant Mental Health who provides guidance and training to all staff as well as working directly with parents and families. The Irish Association for Infant Mental Health (IAIMH) was established in 2009 and is affiliated with the World Association for Infant Mental Health (WAIMH). IAIMH is a non-profit national organisation and a registered charity which was established to promote IMH and provide services to advance the well-being of infants and their caregivers using an interdisciplinary approach (Maguire & Matacz, 2012). The project While there is a growing impetus on Infant mental health practices, there are still considerable gaps in service awareness and overall public awareness within the Irish context. To bridge this gap, tailored infant mental health training was required to develop a common language and fluency regarding early childhood social and emotional development which is on par with what is already known about physical development to the Irish public. Developing the IMH training for all staff within the organisation Following best practice guidelines and in keeping with the relational approach in Childhood Matters, a one-day training on Infant Mental Health principles was conducted for all staff irrespective of profession or expertise. A public health training approach was therefore adopted to ensure the relevancy of the material to employees from all backgrounds. The Irish Association for Infant Mental Health Competency Guidelines* (2018) provide professionals with a framework in which to deliver infant mental health knowledge within work settings and across all sectors and disciplines working on promotion, prevention, treatment intervention and policy. In the development of this training programme, these guidelines were consulted and a common language was developed to communicate infant mental health through a blended learning approach. **Participants** Forty-seven employees from Childhood Matters took part in either one of two training days, which were held within the service. Participants were from a range of disciplines and different areas of the service, representing those who worked both directly and non-directly with families. Twenty-two per cent of those in attendance represented staff who did not work directly with families such as those in the Administration and Executive team, Domestic and Household staff, Security, Maintenance and Horticulture staff. The remaining seventy-eight per cent consisted of clinicians, early educators, teachers and family development practitioners. To facilitate recruitment, an information poster was circulated to staff outlining the importance of Infant Mental Health and its relevance to the service as a whole. Managers from each department agreed to make the necessary arrangements needed so that their staff could attend either one of the two training days organised. Both training days were mixed so that there was a representation of staff who worked directly with families and those who worked non-directly. **The Training** The training was scheduled from 9 am to 4 pm. Lunch and refreshments were provided for all those in attendance on the day. The workshop was designed and presented by the Senior Clinical Psychologist and Infant Mental Health Specialist. The content of the workshop was guided by the foundation skills and competencies listed in the Irish Association for Infant Mental Health Competency Guidelines* (2018). As such, the training sessions focused on the four core areas: What is IMH, and Why it is Important, Brain Development, Foundation Pillars of Attachment, and Emotional Regulation. A blended learning approach was used meaning the information was disseminated using a mix of video and oral-based presentations, a group-based task, and opportunities for discussion. The Brain Architecture Game was utilized as a group activity during this training. This game was developed by both the National Scientific Council on the Developing Child and the FrameWorks Institute in America. The game is interactive and team-based and illustrates the powerful role that relationships have on early brain development focusing in particular on the type of experiences that promote and derail brain development and the overall consequences for society (The Brain Architecture Game, n.d.). **Evaluation of attendees’ experiences of the training** **Evaluation aim** The aim was to evaluate the training day and ascertain whether the workshop and information provided were easily accessible to those in attendance with a particular focus on those from a non-clinical background. Evaluation of the training was conducted in the form of a questionnaire administered to all attendees post-training. The questionnaire contained 14 questions which were a mix of yes/no responses and Likert scales with an opportunity to provide additional feedback in a textbox. The questions analysed whether the attendees felt the training was of use for them in their daily lives; whether the information presented was easily accessible and understood; the main messages taken from the training and any changes they might make. Evaluations were circulated to attendees on completion of training. All questionnaires were completed anonymously and two evaluation boxes were placed in different parts of the campus where staff could return their completed form to. Attendees were given a timeframe of three weeks to return completed forms. **Results** Of the forty-seven evaluation forms which were administered, thirty forms were returned for analysis. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the results. See Figure 1 for a breakdown of clinical and non-clinical respondents. When asked if the attendees had previously heard of Infant Mental Health before completing the training, twenty-two reported that they were previously aware of this term and eight responded that they were not. Of those who reported they were aware of the term, respondents indicated that they had acquired this knowledge through their area of study in their undergraduate and post-graduate degrees. When asked to comment on what they found particularly interesting or helpful about the training day, the answers from the non-clinical population shed interesting light on the dissemination of this information to the general public. One non-clinical respondent wrote --- **Figure 1. Breakdown of Clinical and Non-Clinical Respondents.** “I found it fascinating to learn how a baby’s experiences in its first hours, days and weeks are critical to its well-being in later life. I found it very interesting to learn how communicating with your baby through gazing and mimicking their sounds has such a huge impact on their social and emotional development and plays a key role in emotional regulation in later years. I found it both helpful and reassuring that a parent/guardian only has to be good enough”. Another non-clinical respondent commented, “I thought we thought about mental health when we were older. That was a real surprise. To be aware of the mental health of babies and toddlers is wonderful information to have. It is so helpful.” When asked if they felt that this training gave them a good understanding of IMH, all thirty respondents reported that it had. Several respondents commented that the teamwork exercises and video content aided in their understanding of IMH. In response to the question “Please rate how confident you would feel giving a basic explanation of IMH to a friend/colleague/family member”, three responded that they would feel extremely confident, twelve responded that they would feel very confident and eight responded that they would feel confident. Five of the respondents reported that they would feel somewhat confident and two reported that they would not feel confident explaining IMH. One of the participants who reported that they would not feel confident explaining IMH commented “It gave me a better understanding, but I would not feel confident to relay this to others. Maybe if it was a 2-3 day training, I would be more confident and feel I understood more”. Sixteen participants responded that they felt it was extremely important for the general public to have a basic understanding of IMH, ten reported that they felt it was very important and four stated that they felt it was important. When asked to comment on their response, one participant wrote, “The first three years are extremely important in children’s lives. Their brain develops very first and the relationship you form with your child is fundamental to their future”. Another respondent commented, “The early days, weeks and months of an infant’s life are crucial in terms of brain development, affect regulation and emotional wellbeing. If there were a greater understanding of this, it could have the potential to change entire societies”. Comments from the non-clinical respondents included “Extremely important – I think that the general public should be made aware that infancy is a critical period for social and emotional development and that down the line, emotional and behavioural difficulties could be avoided. Society, in general, would reap the rewards”. Another non-clinical respondent commented, “Extremely important – because most people don’t think of the mental health of babies and toddlers as an issue, yet, as we learned how so very important is it in the first months and early years for the mental health of those little ones”. Respondents were asked to list the main points that they took from the training day and some of the comments included information such as, • “Repair is possible”, • “Relationships are at the heart of social and emotional development. All development happens within a relational context” and • “Infant mental health needs to be recognised more widely and focused on more in an effort to prevent later difficulties”. Several respondents also referred to the importance of understanding and acknowledging Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) (Felitti et al., 1998). Answers from the non-clinical respondents to this question included comments such as: • The importance of communicating with a baby through gazing/mimicking/sounds. A parent/guardian needs to only be good enough. • The importance of a good foundation for healthy brain development and the powerful impact this has on social and emotional development, and • The mental health of babies and toddlers is vitally important; these early years are vital for them to develop mentally and that their supports within the family are sound. Emerging themes Three primary themes from the evaluation data are presented here: 1. Surprise to hear about the emerging capacities of the infant from birth, 2. The importance of building strong foundations concerning an infant’s brain development, and 3. The mental health of babies and toddlers. 1. Surprise to hear about the emerging capacities of the infant from birth Of note was the responses of non-clinical respondents who commented on how surprised they were to hear of the emerging capacities of the infant from birth, specifically, their need and desire to communicate with the primary caregivers through mutual gaze and mimicking of facial expressions and sounds. One respondent noted their surprise at how integral communicating with an infant was to their later life development. This observation was further advanced by another respondent who considered it interesting to learn about just how young babies can take in what is going on around them. Based on these responses, one could postulate that the general public is still relatively unaware of the emerging capacities of an infant from the time of birth and how infants depend on the reciprocal nature of the parent-infant relationship to develop a sense of themselves and a sense of their identity. 2. The importance of building strong foundations with regard to an infant’s brain development. When asked about what main points they took from the training, several non-clinical respondents reported that they noted the importance of building strong foundations for their baby through relational or ‘serve and return’ activities and communication. The Centre for the Developing Child (2012) states that these serve and return activities are integral for neural wiring and brain development in infancy. Consequently, from a public health perspective, this information needs to be made accessible to the wider public. Translating and disseminating infant mental health knowledge and principles at a public health level could provide parents and caregivers with greater awareness and understanding of the key skills and capacities required to give their infant’s the best possible start in life. 3. The mental health of babies and toddlers. The third theme to emerge from the data was the *mental health of babies and toddlers*. While many of the clinical respondents were familiar with the term, several non-clinical respondents remarked how they previously thought the term Mental Health could be applied to adults and never associated it in relation to the social and emotional development of infants. This evaluation provides us with valuable insight into the wider public’s awareness of these issues. While most respondents stated that they had previously heard of the impact of ACE’s on later life, most reported they had been unaware of the importance of an infant’s experiences in utero, after birth and the first 18 months. Research has consistently demonstrated that this time is most pivotal for the developing brain and human development in terms of lifelong health and well-being; neural development is most vulnerable to adverse childhood and environmental experiences (Bergner, 2008; Barlow, 2013). Conclusion Infant Mental Health matters and an understanding of what constitutes as good infant mental health and good enough parenting is imperative to the growth and development of secure, healthy present and future generations. On examination of data obtained from the non-clinical respondents, many noted that they were unaware of the term Infant Mental Health and were surprised to hear about both the emerging capacities of the infant from birth and the importance of an infant’s experiences in utero, after birth and during the first 18 months. These respondents also remarked on learning about the significance of the parent-infant relationship namely the significance of serve and return communication for promoting healthy brain development and helping infants to build a sense of themselves and a sense of their identity. The non-clinical population represented those who did not work or study in an area which would directly expose them to the importance of Infant Mental Health and early years development, this population is likely to be representative of the general public. This, therefore, highlights the need to disseminate IMH knowledge and information to make it publicly accessible to all. In addition, it highlights the ongoing challenge within IMH promotion, to continue to build knowledge and understanding about early childhood social and emotional development so that this knowledge is on par with what is already known about physical development to the Irish public. To address the gaps that currently exist in the awareness of Infant Mental Health among the Irish general public, improving access to IMH knowledge and resources is crucial. Moving outside this staff population and providing the general public with opportunities to attend Infant Mental Health workshops and incorporating the dissemination of IMH information and learning into public policy would be a start in bridging this gap.

It provides a platform for WAIMH members, WAIMH Affiliate members, and allied infant mental health colleagues to share scientific articles, clinical case studies, articles describing innovative thinking, intervention approaches, research studies, and book reviews, to name a few. It also serves as a nexus for the establishment of a communication network, and informs members of upcoming events and conferences. It is a free open access publication at www.waimh.org During the past 50 years, infant mental health has emerged as a significant approach for the promotion, prevention, and treatment of social, emotional, relational, and physical wellbeing in infants and young children, in relationship with their parents and caregivers, in their families and communities. Within this same time frame, the infant mental health movement has expanded to a global network of professionals from many disciplines. This infant mental health global network community of research, practice, and policy advocates, all share a common goal of enhancing the facilitating conditions that promote intergenerational wellbeing; including intergenerational mental health and wellbeing relationships, between infants and young children, parents, and other caregivers, in their communities. The global reach of infant mental health demands attention to the cultural context in which a young child and family lives, as well as critical attention to issues that affect child development, child health, child mental health, parental mental health and early relationship development.

I am pleased to report that you may notice a familiar problem in one of the new Prentice-Hall catalogues. Bill Zobrist from P-H decided to run one of our "Puzzle Corner" problems. Other than that it has been a pretty quiet month, especially when compared with my "close encounter" with Hurricane Andrew. Problems F/M 1. We begin with a Bridge problem from Jerry Grossman who writes: Here's a cute bridge problem that you might want to consider for TR. It arose (well, except for one card that I changed to make it more interesting) in a Swiss team game last weekend at the Southeast Michigan Valentine's Sectional. | North | West | East | |-------|------|------| | ♣ 4 | 9 7 6 5 | 3 | | ♥ A J 5 | 5 3 2 | K Q 9 8 6 | | ♦ A K J 7 2 | 8 | Q 10 9 4 | | ♣ A 8 5 2 | J 10 7 6 3 | K 9 4 | The contract is six spades by South, East having bid hearts (overcalled North's diamond opening bid). How is the contract made against any lead? This is not a double dummy problem, so the play should make bridge sense. F/M 2. Our next problem is Tom Hansen's first submission, a true-to-life story illustrating that "biology students should learn their physics." A scientist at a Boston-area biotech company needs to centrifuge 5 identical samples. He has available 3 centrifuges with capacities of 6, 8, and 12 samples. Can he use any of these centrifuges to prepare the 5 samples together, without adding another sample or making the centrifuge unbalanced? F/M 3. Walter Cluett asks one that sounds very familiar to me. Who knows but maybe it was in "Puzzle Corner" some 20 odd years ago. Four bugs are standing on the corners of a square surface 1,414 feet on a side. Simultaneously, each starts walking at the same rate directly, and always directly, toward the bug on its right. Eventually they all meet. How far did each bug travel? Speed Department Speedy Jim Landau wants to know how you can drop a raw egg 4 feet without it breaking. Solutions OCT 1. We begin with a Bridge problem from J. Harmse who notes that the highest possible declarer score is obtained by playing INT redoubled vulnerable, taking all 13 tricks. The problem is to devise a distribution of the cards in which the above occurs with "normal" bidding and play. The following solution is from Robert Sackheim: | North | West | East | |-------|------|------| | ♠ x x x | ♠ K J x | ♠ Q x x | | ♥ x x | ♥ K J x | ♥ x x x | | ♦ K J | ♦ x x x | ♦ K J x | | ♣ A Q 10 x x | ♣ A Q 10 x x | ♣ A Q 10 x x | The above conditions imply a Diophantine set of equations. Because of the limits on y, there are only a finite number of Pythagorean triplets that must be checked. The Pythagorean triplets can be generated from two integers m,n as follows: \{m^2-n^2\}, \{2mn\}, \{m^2+n^2\}, and all integer multiples thereof. The only solution found is z=120, x=123, w=169, and y=46. Thus, A and B are 123 feet apart, and the distance walked is 169 feet. OCT 3. Richard Hess entitles this one "The missing term" and writes: Given the series \[ ...35,45,60,x,120,180,280,450,744,1260,... \] the problem is to find a simple continuous function to generate the series and from it to determine the surprise answer for x. Rick Hedrick, Eugene Sard, and Kelly Woods found the unique 8th degree polynomial passing through the nine given points and deduced that x is approximately 83. The proposer Richard Hess intended that \[ f(n) = \frac{2n-1}{n} \cdot 120 \quad (n \neq 0) \] \[ x = \lim_{n \to 0} f(n) = 120 \ln 2 \] Which one is the "simpler," I leave to you. Other Responders Responses have also been received from B. Blondin, S. Feldman, M. Fountain, P. Godfrey, R. Hess, J. Keillin, M. Lively, A. Lowenstein, D. Schwarzkopf, and K. Rosato. Proposer's Solution to Speed Problem Drop it 5 feet; it will not break during the first four.

CASE AND RESEARCH LETTER [Translated article] Nadolol for Infantile Hemangiomas Previously Treated with Propranolol Uso de nadolol en el tratamiento de hemangiomas infantiles previamente tratados con propranolol To the Director, Beta-blockers (BB) have become the treatment of choice for infantile hemangiomas (IH). 1 Among this class of drugs, propranolol has taken the lead, consolidating its efficacy and safety profile, 2 and becoming the only beta-blocker approved for this indication. 3 However, some patients exhibit limited therapeutic response or experience related adverse events, leading us to consider other beta-blockers as an alternative to propranolol. 4 We reviewed patients with IH treated with oral nadolol at the Dermatology Unit of Hospital Universitario Costa del Sol, Málaga, Spain from 2010 through 2022. Nadolol was administered in an oral solution formulation prepared at the hospital pharmacy at a concentration of 10 mg/mL. The initial dose was 1 mg/kg/day, divided into 2 doses every 12 hours, with an increased 1 mg/kg/day every 10 days (with a maximum dose of 3 mg/kg/day) depending on the patient's response and tolerability to the drug. Response to treatment was assessed using a validated visual analog scale 5 that measures thickness and size in millimeters (a 5 mm reduction is equivalent to a 10% change on the scale) and skin coloration. Good (complete involution or remissions > 80%), partial (remissions from 50% to 80%), and incomplete responses (remissions < 50%) can be identified here. A total of 7 patients received nadolol, 6 of whom were women. The patients' demographic and hemangiomarelated clinical characteristics are shown in table 1. In all cases, nadolol was prescribed after previous use of propranolol. Table 1 Demographic characteristics of the patients and therapy timeline. DOI of original article: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ad.2023.05.025 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ad.2023.11.015 Table 1 (Continued) The median age when treatment with propranolol started was 4 months (IQR, 2.5-5.5), with all patients reaching the maximum dose of 3 mg/kg/day. The median duration of treatment was 15 months (IQR, 10-24). The reason for withdrawing propranolol was a lack of response in 3 patients and lesion regrowth after drug discontinuation on several occasions in the remaining 4. None of our patients discontinued propranolol due to adverse events such as sleep disturbances or hypoglycemia. The median age when treatment with nadolol started was 21 months (IQR, 16-36) at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg/day (IQR, 2-3), and a median course of 8 months (IQR, 7-16). Regarding effectiveness, 4 patients had good responses; 1 patient had a partial response (fig. 1); and 2 patients, incomplete responses. The rate of response was 5 out of 7 patients. No patient had to discontinue nadolol therapy for any drug-related adverse events. The timeline of treatments, courses, and patient responses are shown in table 1. In our series of 7 cases, the main reason for switching from propranolol to nadolol was the regrowth of the hemangioma after discontinuation after several attempts, a well-documented phenomenon in the medical literature reported in nearly 25% of the cases. 6 Risk factors for regrowth include female gender, head and neck location, segmental character, deep components, and a < 9-month course of beta-blockers. 4 The lack of initial response to propranolol was reported in 3 patients, a number similar to the one reported. The cause of this inefficiency is still unknown. However, treatment should go on for > 6 months to increase the rate of success. 6 In our series, the mean course of treatment exceeded this recommendation by far (up to 15 months). None of the patients switched to nadolol due to propranolol-related adverse events. Nadolol is a water-soluble beta-blocker with a half-life of 12 to 24 hours. These pharmacokinetic properties theoretically give it certain advantages over propranolol when administered to young patients. Since nanodol does not penetrate the blood-brain barrier, it has with fewer adverse events on the central nervous system, and thus fewer sleep disturbances compared to propranolol. However, same as it happens with propranolol, it is a non-cardioselective BB, meaning that it can cause the same adverse events due to its beta 2 and beta 3 adrenergic activity, such as hypoglycemia and bronchospasm. 7 Since the main pathway for drug excretion is the GI tract (up to 70%), the infant's bowel movements needs to be monitored, especially after a case reported in the medical literature of a patient who died from nadolol intoxication who was suffering from constipation. 8 On the other hand, its half-life is twice that of propranolol, which is associated with more stable drug levels in blood. 9 This is the main hypothesis that may explain why nadolol may have faster onsets of action and be more effective than propranolol. A recent double, prospective, non-inferiority clinical trial comparing the efficacy and safety profile of nadolol vs propranolol 10 demonstrated that the former was 59% faster than the latter in achieving a 75% reduction in size, and 105% faster in achieving hemangioma disappearance, all without more adverse events being reported. In conclusion, nadolol has proven to be an effective and safe drug with a favorable pharmacokinetic profile, and non-inferior and faster rates of response compared to propranolol. This has turned it into the first-line therapy for the management of high-risk subtypes of hemangiomas with associated factors for recurrence. Conflicts of interest None declared. References 1.

Contexto Operacional O Serviço Federal de Processamento de Dados - Serpro é uma empresa pública, vinculada ao Ministério da Economia, com sede em Brasília (DF). Foi criado pela lei nº 4.516, de 1º de dezembro de 1964 e está regido pela lei nº 5.615, de 13 de outubro de 1970; lei nº 6.404, de 15 de dezembro de 1976; lei nº 13.303, de 30 de junho de 2016; regulamentado pelo decreto nº 8.945, de 27 de dezembro de 2016; por seu Estatuto Social vigente e pelas normas legais que lhe forem aplicáveis. A empresa tem por objeto social desenvolver, prover, integrar, comercializar e licenciar soluções em tecnologia da informação, prestar assessoramento, consultoria e assistência técnica no campo de sua especialidade, além de executar serviços de tratamento de dados e informações. Com a missão institucional de conectar Estado e sociedade com soluções digitais inovadoras, o Serpro possui presença nacional, robusta infraestrutura tecnológica e ampla experiência com os grandes sistemas da Administração Pública Federal, oferecendo serviços especializados para os setores privado e público, baseados em informações de governo com oferta de produtos diversificados, com atuação em três linhas de negócio: Serviços sob medida, Serviços de informação e Serviços em nuvem. Nota 2 - Preparação e apresentação das demonstrações financeiras 2.1 - Declaração de conformidade com as normas brasileiras de contabilidade As demonstrações financeiras estão preparadas em conformidade com as práticas contábeis adotadas no Brasil (BRGAAP). A emissão e divulgação das demonstrações financeiras do segundo trimestre, encerrado em 30 de junho de 2020, foi autorizada pela Administração da Empresa em reunião realizada em 05 de agosto de 2020 . 2.2 - Base de mensuração As demonstrações financeiras foram preparadas com base no custo histórico, com exceção dos ativos financeiros, que são avaliados a valor justo com reflexo no patrimônio líquido, das provisões trabalhistas, cíveis e administrativas, que são mensuradas pelo valor atual estimado da obrigação e suas variações impactam diretamente o resultado do exercício, e das provisões matemáticas relativas aos benefícios pós-emprego da Empresa, mensuradas pelo valor presente líquido das obrigações, que podem impactar tanto resultado do exercício quanto outros resultados abrangentes (patrimônio líquido). 2.3 - Moeda funcional e de apresentação A moeda funcional da Empresa é o Real e, para fins de apresentação, as demonstrações financeiras estão apresentadas em milhares de Reais. 2.4 - Uso de estimativas e julgamentos Na preparação destas demonstrações financeiras, foram utilizados julgamentos, estimativas e premissas que afetam a aplicação de políticas contábeis e valores reportados de ativos, passivos, receitas e despesas. Os valores definitivos das transações envolvendo essas estimativas somente serão conhecidos por ocasião da sua liquidação. Estimativas e premissas são revistas de forma contínua. As revisões das estimativas são reconhecidas prospectivamente. 2.5 - Mensuração do valor justo A mensuração do valor justo dos ativos financeiros é pela abordagem do mercado principal, onde se utiliza os preços que foram observados e outras informações relevantes ao produto, em transações no mercado que envolvem ativos ou passivos considerados semelhantes. 2.6 - Reclassificações Para fins comparativos e melhor avaliação das situações apresentadas, algumas informações podem ser reclassificadas. Essas reclassificações não atendem ao critério de materialidade e, portanto, não são objeto de reapresentação de balanço. Em síntese, representam alterações de nomenclatura de grupo de demonstrações, reclassificação de valores ou revisão de agrupamento de contas. 2.8 - Imunidade Tributária O Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), através de decisão proferida nos autos da Ação Cível Originária (ACO) 2.658/DF de 06 de abril de 2018, fundamentada no art. 150, VI, "a" da 11 Constituição Federal, concedeu ao Serpro a imunidade tributária recíproca sobre bens, patrimônio e serviços, condicionando a sua aplicabilidade exclusivamente às situações em que a empresa prestar serviços a órgãos e entidades da administração pública. 2.9 - Demonstração do Fluxo de Caixa – DFC A Empresa apresenta a DFC, conforme NBC TG 03 (R3) e CPC 03 (R2), pelo método direto. 2.10 - Demonstração do Valor Adicionado – DVA A Empresa elabora DVA, conforme NBC TG 09 e CPC 09, que é apresentada como parte integrante das demonstrações financeiras. Nota 3 - Informações gerais do contexto externo Em virtude da inclusão do Serpro no Programa Nacional de Desestatização (PND) do Ministério da Economia, por meio do decreto nº 10.206/2020, e considerando as incertezas relevantes acerca das operações da empresa, eventos ou decisões estratégicas podem provocar modificações nas políticas e transações da empresa, impactar o formato jurídico do Serpro no futuro próximo, provocar alterações na composição acionária, na cadeia de fornecedores, na carteira de clientes, nas parcerias de negócio, no modelo de negócio, alteração das políticas contábeis, alteração de critérios da administração em relação a créditos a receber, alteração do estatuto social, reformulação da governança corporativa, estimativas de provisões, dentre outros. Caso se concretizem, essas alterações têm reflexo imediato e significativo nas demonstrações financeiras, até mesmo em relação aos segmentos das operações (Normas Brasileiras de Contabilidade Técnica - NBC TG 22), na relação do Serpro com Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM), com a Bolsa de Valores B3, com o Governo Federal e com mercados externos. Nota 4 - Principais políticas contábeis Considerando o que dispõe a norma contábil, as práticas mais significativas aplicadas pelo Serpro no exercício de 2020 estão apresentadas a seguir: 4.1 – Caixa e equivalente de caixa Compreendem saldos de caixa e investimentos financeiros com realização imediata. serpro.gov.br Estão sujeitos a risco insignificante de alteração no valor justo, sendo utilizados na gestão das obrigações de curto prazo. 4.2 – Ativo Imobilizado O ativo imobilizado corresponde aos direitos que tenham por objeto bens corpóreos destinados à manutenção das atividades empresariais. São mensurados pelo custo de aquisição, deduzido das depreciações acumuladas. 4.3 – Ativo Intangível Trata-se de gastos incorridos, que atendem aos critérios de reconhecimento e mensuração para serem ativados, diretamente associados a software identificáveis e únicos. São mensurados pelo custo de aquisição, deduzido das amortizações acumuladas. 4.4 – Provisões São reconhecidas em razão da entidade possuir obrigações presentes associadas a eventos passados, que podem ser estimadas de maneira confiável com probabilidade de que recursos econômicos sejam exigidos para liquidar a obrigação na data do balanço. 4.5 – Receita operacional Nos termos da NBC TG 47, o Serpro adotou o reconhecimento da receita ao longo do tempo, estimando os serviços a faturar não abarcados pelo faturamento do período, sendo estes baixados no mês subsequente, uma vez que são objeto do próximo faturamento. 4.6 – Benefícios a empregados Obrigações de benefícios de curto prazo a empregados são reconhecidas como despesas de pessoal conforme prestação do serviço correspondente. 4.6.1 – Benefícios pós-emprego 220.127.116.11 – Planos de contribuição variável As obrigações por contribuições ao plano de contribuição variável são reconhecidas no resultado como despesas com pessoal. 18.104.22.168 – Planos de benefício definido A obrigação líquida da Empresa para os planos de benefício definido é calculada anualmente por uma consultoria atuarial, utilizando-se o método de Crédito Unitário Projetado (CUP). O cálculo da obrigação é realizado com base na estimativa do valor do benefício futuro, sendo descontado a valor presente, apresentado líquido de quaisquer ativos do plano. As mensurações da obrigação líquida, que incluem os ganhos e perdas atuariais, o retorno dos ativos do plano (excluindo juros sobre o valor justo do ativo) e o efeito do teto do ativo, são reconhecidas em Outros Resultados Abrangentes (ORA). O custo líquido dos juros e outras despesas relacionadas aos planos de benefícios definidos são reconhecidos no resultado. 22.214.171.124 – Programa de Assistência à Saúde A obrigação atuarial líquida da Empresa em relação ao Programa de Assistência à Saúde (PAS/Serpro) é calculada anualmente pela mesma consultoria atuarial, utilizando-se o método de Crédito Unitário Projetado (CUP). O objetivo deste método é diluir o custo do benefício de cada empregado ao longo do período previsto em que trabalhará para a Empresa. A determinação do custo para cada ano de serviço é obtida indiretamente pela alocação dos benefícios esperados entre os anos de serviço. As mensurações da obrigação líquida, em relação ao PAS/Serpro, são reconhecidas em Outros Resultados Abrangentes, sendo o custo da obrigação de benefícios (despesas projetadas) reconhecidas no resultado deste ano de 2020. 4.7 – Perdas estimadas em créditos de liquidação duvidosa (PECLD) São constituídas de acordo com os procedimentos e critérios definidos pela administração, que inclui a análise das faturas a receber vencidas e incertas quanto ao seu recebimento. O cálculo considera as faturas vencidas, utilizando-se o critério temporal. Com base no histórico, os valores vencidos há mais de 365 dias possuem maior possibilidade de não recebimento e, portanto, compõem a PECLD, salvo naqueles casos em que haja manifestação formal de pagamento por parte do cliente. São incluídos também como PECLD os valores em avaliação de direito registrados no ativo não circulante, em sua integralidade. 4.8 – Instrumentos Financeiros Em relação a NBC TG 48 (rev 14) e CPC 48 (rev 14) , estão incluídos, no Serpro, os itens patrimoniais: fundo de aplicação extramercado; créditos a receber de clientes; investimentos serpro.gov.br em incentivos fiscais; e contas a pagar ou fornecedores e, contabilmente, não houve alteração no tratamento dado . Ativo Ativo Circulante Nota 5 - Caixa e equivalente de caixa Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | Dez/2019 | |---|---|---| | Caixa/ Bancos | 30.159,2 | 45.140,7 | | Aplicação financeira | 1.063.594,3 | 962.368,9 | | Caixa e equivalente de caixa | 1.093.753,5 | 1.007.509,6 | 5.1 – Bancos conta movimento São recursos financeiros disponíveis, depositados, em sua maioria, R$ 29,9 milhões, na conta limite de saque com vinculação de pagamento. 5.2 – Fundo de aplicação financeira Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | Dez/2019 | |---|---|---| | BB Extramercado FAE Fundo de Investimento em Renda Fixa | 544.773,7 | 478.184,5 | | CAIXA FI Extramercado Comum IRFM-1 | 518.820,6 | 484.184,3 | | | 1.063.594,3 | 962.368,9 | Trata-se de aplicações financeiras de alta liquidez. Nos termos estabelecidos na Resolução 3284, de 15/05/2005, do Banco Central do Brasil – BCB, a quantia de R$ 1.063,6 Milhões foi aplicada no mercado financeiro, contemplando os seguintes fundos de investimento, lastreados em títulos públicos federais, cujas rentabilidades são atreladas à taxa SELIC: i) BB Extramercado FAE Fundo de Investimento em Renda Fixa, gerido pelo Banco do Brasil, com rentabilidade anual de 2,6732%, cujo saldo alcançou R$ 544,8 milhões; ii) CAIXA FI Extramercado Comum IRFM-1, gerido pela Caixa Econômica Federal, com rentabilidade anual de 2,6305%, cujo saldo alcançou R$ 518,8 milhões. Nota 6 - Ativos Financeiros Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | |---|---| | Cotas FINAM/FINOR | 9.864,9 | | Correção monetária | 28,9 | | Provisão para perdas prováveis | (9.458,7) | | Total | 435,1 | Nos termos da NBC TG 48, representam instrumentos financeiros não mantidos para negociação, com opção irrevogável de reconhecimento da variação pelo Valor Justo em Outros Resultados Abrangentes (VJORA). Estes ativos representam cotas dos seguintes fundos de investimentos: i) FINOR, com 306.290.783 cotas escriturais, sem prazo de vencimento; ii) FINAM, com o total de 2.420.110.239 cotas, também sem vencimento definido. O valor justo das cotas é obtido mensalmente por meio do valor de cotação na BOVESPA (B3). Assim, são classificados como ativos financeiros de nível 1, ou seja, possuem "preços cotados em mercados ativos para ativos e passivos idênticos". Nota 7 – Clientes Os créditos a receber de clientes são apresentados no balanço deduzidos das Perdas Estimadas para Crédito em Liquidação Duvidosa (PECLD). Segue composição detalhada no quadro abaixo: Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | Dez/2019 | |---|---|---| | Créditos a receber de clientes a vencer | 268.386,2 | 257.041,0 | | Créditos a receber a faturar | 183.799,2 | 152.535,8 | | | 51.365,0 | 18.467,9 | | | 45.878,1 | 18.713,2 | | | 11.124,6 | 17.130,5 | | | 31.400,0 | 25.813,3 | | | 30.048,7 | 54.092,8 | | | 125.511,5 | 86.025,8 | | Créditos a receber | 747.513,3 | 629.820,2 | | PECLD | (125.516,3) | (84.797,2) | | Total | 621.997,0 | 545.023,0 | 7.1 – Perda Estimada para Crédito em Liquidação Duvidosa A PECLD é estimada com base no processo organizacional de cobrança de débitos de clientes e de acordo com o risco de não recebimento. O valor da PECLD em junho de 2020 de R$ 125 milhões, representa um acréscimo de R$ 40 milhões, comparativamente a dezembro de 2019. Este aumento se deve, principalmente, ao aumento das faturas vencidas há mais de 365 dias dos clientes. Nota 8 – Ressarcimento de Pessoal Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | Dez/2019 | |---|---|---| | Créditos a receber | 47.028,4 | 26.675,3 | | Sentenças judiciais | 54.953,5 | 54.469,6 | O valor de créditos a receber refere-se a Notas de Ressarcimento (NR) emitidas pelo Serpro a órgãos governamentais.

Quanto ao valor de R$ 79,5 milhões referente às Letras Financeiras do Tesouro do Estado de Santa Catarina (LFTSC), já deduzidas as custas judiciais, trata-se de ativo reconhecido pelo valor incontroverso, registrado como precatório pelo Fundo de Pensão, do qual a patrocinadora faz jus a 42,7% dos créditos. Merece destaque que ao final do exercício de 2019 houve, por parte do Fundo, a atualização em créditos líquidos a receber de precatórios, alterando assim os valores da LFTSC para R$ 191,8 milhões, bem como do passivo junto à patrocinadora, que passou ao montante de R$ 79,5 milhões. Tal reavaliação de acordo com a EFPC teve como fulcro na Certidão do TJ-SC de 27/11/19, referente ao precatório ora mencionado (nº 0000779-13.2013.8.24.0500). A atualização do ativo do Serpro de R$ 60,2 milhões para R$ 79,5 milhões tem teve impacto no resultado do segundo trimestre de 2020.

Parte dessa variação é explicada pela prorrogação do prazo para recolhimento do PASEP e da COFINS, em decorrência da pandemia relacionada ao coronavírus. 20.3 – ISS a recolher 20.3.1 - Imposto sobre Serviços - Imunidade Tributária O Supremo Tribunal Federal, através de decisão favorável proferida nos autos da Ação Cível Originária 2.658/DF, concedeu ao Serpro a imunidade tributária recíproca sobre bens, patrimônio e serviços (NE 2.8). A Empresa, utilizando-se da via administrativa, apresentou às Secretarias de Finanças e de Fazenda dos Municípios, pedidos de reconhecimento da imunidade tributária, provocando prioritariamente aqueles municípios de maior representatividade na arrecadação do ISS: São Paulo, Brasília, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Recife, Salvador, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte e Fortaleza, que juntas representaram em 2019, 97,38% do total recolhido pelo Serpro a título de ISS. O Governo do Distrito Federal e as Prefeituras de São Paulo e Porto Alegre já se pronunciaram acolhendo o pleito, e após autorização da Administração, o SERPRO suspendeu o recolhimento do ISS nestas localidades. Em São Paulo e Porto Alegre os valores correspondentes ao benefício estão sendo provisionados contabilmente, até deferimento definitivo da Prefeitura. Nestas localidades a aplicação da imunidade tributária recíproca ficou restrita a prestação de serviços a órgãos e entidades da administração pública, conforme teor da decisão do STF. Ademais, foram propostas ações judiciais em face do Município do Rio de Janeiro, com deferimento de tutela de urgência pelo TRF2 para que o SERPRO seja desobrigado a recolher os tributos municipais, e em desfavor do Município de Curitiba, onde não obstante a sentença favorável na 1ª instância, ainda estamos obrigados a recolher. Nos demais municípios o Serpro recolhe o ISS habitualmente. Nota 21 – Imposto de Renda e Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro O Serpro apura o IRPJ e a CSLL pelo regime de tributação do Lucro Real na modalidade anual, e, amparado em decisão própria na Ação Cível Originária - 2.658/DF transitada em julgado, e nos Pareceres Técnicos de sua assessoria jurídica, aplicou no encerramento do exercício de 2019 a imunidade tributária recíproca ao IRPJ, excluindo do Lucro Real, a parcela do resultado atribuído aos serviços prestados a órgãos e entidades públicas, mantendo a tributação sobre o lucro decorrente do resultado da parcela não imune. Adotou como referência o método do lucro da exploração, previsto no art. 626 do Regulamento do Imposto de Renda e na Instrução Normativa 262/2002 - art. 62, excluindo do Lucro Real a parcela dos lucros auferidos alcançados pela imunidade, conforme demonstrado na Nota 21.2. A Administração entende que o fato das obrigações acessórias não contemplarem a forma específica para a apuração do tributo não pode ser obstáculo à fruição de um status jurídico decorrente de decisão judicial transitada em julgada proferida pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal, e que a fórmula de cálculo adotada segue a legislação tributária atualmente em vigor. 21.1 - Demonstração do cálculo dos tributos sobre o lucro - IRPJ e CSL Em milhares de R$ As despesas de IRPJ e CSLL do período compreendem os tributos correntes e diferidos que, confrontados com o lucro contábil (R$ 106,1 milhões), resultou numa alíquota efetiva de 6,3% em junho de 2020, equivalente a despesa de R$ 16,1 milhões. Esse resultado foi influenciado principalmente pela exclusão de lucro atribuído ao setor público (NE 21.2 e 21.4) e pela constituição de Ativo Fiscal Diferido sobre as adições e exclusões temporárias (NE 21.3). Em 2019 foi constituído Ativo Fiscal Diferido sobre o saldo da Base Negativa - CSLL em virtude da projeção de lucros futuros e obtenção de lucros tributáveis nos últimos exercícios, e não foi constituído o AFD sobre o saldo do Prejuízo Fiscal – IRPJ em virtude da aplicação da imunidade tributária​ (NE 21.4. 1). 21.2 - Demonstração da apuração do Lucro atribuído ao setor público Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | % | Dez/2019 | % | |---|---|---|---|---| | Receita Operacional Líquida | 1.308.567,8 | | 2.859.075,4 | | | (-) Receita operacional líquida a faturar | (33.372,4) | | (16.986,7) | | | Receita Operacional Líquida a distribuir | 1.275.195,5 | | 2.842.088,7 | | | Receita líquida atribuída ao setor público | 1.118.996,7 | 87,8 | 2.546.039,7 | 89,6 | | Receita líquida atribuída ao setor privado | 156.198,8 | 12,2 | 296.049,0 | 10,4 | | Lucro Líquido antes dos tributos sobre o lucro | 254.638,0 | | 460.327,1 | | | Adições | 27.686,8 | | 28.875,9 | | | Outras Despesas e Outras Receita (Lei nº 6.404/1976, art. 187, IV) | 3,4 | | 38,7 | | | Tributos com exigibilidade suspensa | 26.702,4 | | 26.970,7 | | | Realização de Reservas de Reavaliação | 823,8 | | 1.668,9 | | | Ajuste positivo de diferenças nos termos do art. 58 da Lei nº 12.973/2014 | 157,2 | | 197,7 | | | Exclusões | (55.650,7) | | (13.654,8) | | | Outras Receita (Lei nº 6.404/1976, art. 187, IV) | (1.301,6) | | (21,6) | | | Receitas Financeiras Excedentes das Despesas Financeiras | (54.349,2) | | (13.633,2) | | | Lucro Líquido ajustado a atribuir | 226.674,1 | | 475.548,2 | | | Lucro atribuído ao Setor Público Imune de IRPJ | 198.908,8 | 87,8 | 426.012,2 | 89,6 | | Lucro atribuído ao Setor Privado | 27.765,3 | 12,2 | 49.536,0 | 10,4 | Trata-se de detalhamento da apuração do lucro na prestação serviço atribuído ao setor público imune de IRPJ (R$198,9 milhões), que corresponde a exclusão de R$ 49,7 milhões do IRPJ corrente em junho de 2020.

Nota 31 – Provisões trabalhistas, cíveis e administrativas 31.1 – Classificação dos riscos das provisões trabalhistas e cíveis Os advogados classificam os processos e atribuem o risco, com base no histórico do pedido, na experiência e no andamento do processo. O risco compõe o valor esperado no sentido de atender o item 43 do NBC TG 25 que trata sobre Provisões, Passivos Contingentes e Ativos Contingentes. Os riscos processuais são classificados no Serpro da seguinte forma: Provável (51 a 100%): ​classificação aplicada para denotar que o risco de desfecho desfavorável ao Serpro muito alto, apesar de não ter ocorrido, ou quando a chance de ocorrer um ou mais eventos ou decisões desfavoráveis é maior do que a de não ocorrer. A classificação do risco de um processo como provável denota um prognóstico de perda da ação, em razão de elementos ou indicativos como a tendência jurisprudencial que se mostra desfavorável à tese da Empresa, teses anteriores apreciadas em tribunais superiores quando matérias de direito estão envolvidas e dificuldade para produção de provas, quando se trata de litígio que envolve matéria de fato. Os valores referentes a processos judiciais classificados com risco provável são contabilizados como passivo. Possível (21 a 50%): ​demonstra que a possibilidade de ocorrer um ou mais eventos ou decisões desfavoráveis à Empresa é menor que provável e maior que remota. Um prognóstico de possível perda da ação denota que o insucesso pode ocorrer, no entanto, os elementos ou dados são inexistentes ou insuficientes para formação de convicção quanto à tendência de êxito ou insucesso no processo em questão. Processos, cuja classificação de risco corresponde a possível, são inseridos nas notas explicativas (na seção de passivos contingentes), mas não estão reconhecidas e evidenciadas nas demonstrações financeiras Remoto (0 a 20%): classificação empregada quando a chance de um ou mais eventos ou decisões desfavoráveis ser proferida é reduzida, configurando-se como um processo que dificilmente trará perdas ou prejuízos ao Serpro, ou são insignificantes as chances de que existam perdas. 31.2 – Provisões trabalhistas e cíveis Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | Mar/2020 | Dez/2019 | |---|---|---|---| | Provisões trabalhistas e cíveis | 416.084,5 | 400.349,0 | 377.807,7 | São provisionados os processos classificados como prováveis, em que a Empresa é ré e estão em fase de execução (ou seja, não há dúvida da existência do evento passado), a estimativa é realizada pelo método do valor esperado, de acordo com a interpretação da NBC TG 25 ( R1) (item 40). O risco é atribuído pelo advogado e o valor apurado por perito assistente com base no valor homologado de sentença de execução. A maioria dos processos são de natureza trabalhista, representando mais de 98% do passivo provisionado. A Administração entende que as provisões de R$ 416,1 milhões constituídas para fazer frente a processos trabalhistas e cíveis são suficientes para representar, os riscos de eventuais decisões judiciais desfavoráveis (NBC TG 25). Os processos classificados como possíveis totalizam: R$ 12,3 milhões. Em milhares de R$ | Saldo da provisão 31/12/2019 | 377.807,7 | |---|---| | Processos que entraram na provisão | 24.736,2 | | Processos que saíram da provisão | (6.588,0) | | Majoração nos processos anteriormente provisionados | 14.216,5 | | Redução nos processos anteriormente provisionados | (9.823,4) | | Saldo da provisão 31/03/2020 | 400.349,0 | | Processos que entraram na provisão | 16.988,9 | | Processos que saíram da provisão | (4.364,2) | | Majoração nos processos anteriormente provisionados | 27.024,8 | | Redução nos processos anteriormente provisionados | (23.914,0) | | Saldo da provisão 30/06/2020 | 416.084,5 | O Serpro espera que parte do passivo seja reembolsado, desta forma, e seguindo a NBC TG 25 (item 53), é contabilizado um ativo das ações de empregados cedidos, já que destes se espera a devolução dos valores desembolsados, o total do passivo deste grupo de ações é R$ 109,7 milhões. Abaixo um quadro discriminatório da provisão e dos valores esperados de reembolso. Em milhares de R$ | Tipo de ação | Valor em R$ | |---|---| | Sem expectativa de reembolso | 109.751,4 | | Com expectativa de reembolso | 306.333,1 | | Saldo da provisão 31/12/2019 | 416.084,5 | Como o fundamento do reembolso é legal, e a administração pública (de quem se espera o reembolso) é adstrita ao princípio da legalidade, a administração do Serpro julga que o reembolso é praticamente certo. No exercício anterior foram elencados como fatores estruturantes: i- alteração da forma de atualização dos débitos trabalhistas; ii- reforma trabalhista e iii- Ação cível originária onde foi reconhecida a Imunidade (sub-item 3 desta parte das Notas Explicativas) Tributária para o Serpro. Dos fatores estruturantes que estavam como incertos ano passado, foi possível identificar, o efeito da "Reforma Trabalhista", a qual diminuiu a quantidade de novas ações, apresentando um horizonte positivo de controle e diminuição do passivo judicial contingente. O outro fator "alteração da forma de atualização dos débitos trabalhistas", teve sua incerteza diminuída em 2019, porém a tabela única de correção monetária trabalhista, continua sendo elaborada com a TR, novos critérios de atualização monetária foram revelados com a publicação da Medida Provisória - MP 905/2019, que depois foi revogada com expectativa de publicação de texto semelhante no futuro imediato, o STF está julgando o direito e sobrestou todas as ações que tenham como objeto o assunto, mas sem impacto na tabela única, pela cautela continuaremos acompanhando a evolução do entendimento dos novos critérios de correção monetária, até que convirjam para uma nova tabela única ou critérios únicos da Justiça Trabalhista. Existe um trabalho contínuo para diminuição do passivo judicial através da celebração de acordos judiciais. Os esforços para celebração de composições amigáveis, reduziram sensivelmente o passivo de alguns dos processos de maior valor, e o Serpro continua empenhado em celebrar acordos benéficos para a empresa. 31.3 – Declaração da Administração quanto ao reconhecimento e divulgação de provisões judiciais A apropriação das provisões judiciais cumpre norma contábil (NBC TG 25 (R2)), o que não representa o reconhecimento da perda dos processos por parte da Empresa. 31.4 – Provisões para perdas administrativas Em milhares de R$ Em consequência da conquista pelo Serpro da imunidade tributária em serviços prestados para entes públicos, foi realizada uma provisão administrativa de R$ 16,1 milhões visando o ressarcimento a clientes.

Nota 34 – Resultado do exercício 34.1 – Receita Bruta- Faturamento e estimativa de valores a faturar No 2° trimestre de 2020, a Receita Bruta apresentou decréscimo de R$ 174 milhões o que equivale a uma diminuição de 10,1% em comparação com o mesmo trimestre do exercício anterior.

Esse acréscimo se dá sobretudo em remuneração e encargos sociais decorrente do crescimento vegetativo relativos à progressão funcional, tais como: anuênio, reclassificação, promoção por mérito e por tempo de serviço​. * Resultado com Ações Judiciais No que se refere ao resultado com ações judiciais houve aumento de R$ 27,4 milhões, valor composto principalmente por provisões para riscos trabalhistas. * Resultado com créditos a receber Quanto ao Resultado com Créditos a Receber, o impacto apurado é reflexo do saldo ainda vigente de inadimplência de clientes. Trata-se de faturas que completaram 365 dias de vencimento. Cumpre destacar que, ao atingir esse prazo, os valores em atraso são reconhecidos como perda estimada em créditos de liquidação duvidosa (PECLD), afetando o resultado econômico da empresa. O impacto negativo no resultado acumulado no período em análise foi de R$ 13,5 milhões. 34.4.2 - Reduções * Manutenção, Comunicação e Serviços Públicos Despesas com manutenção (15,9%), serviços de comunicação (25,4%), serviços profissionais e contratos (9,3%) e serviços públicos (19,4%), cujos impactos, em conjunto, alcançaram R$ 21,3 milhões. Essas reduções se devem a revisões dos contratos com fornecedores e a redução na utilização de serviços decorrente da implantação do trabalho remoto durante esse período de pandemia da COVID 19. 34.5 – Composição dos gastos na DRE Em milhares de R$ | | Jun/2020 | | | | | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Descrição | | | | | | | | (576.826,8) | (255.409,8) | (832.236,6) (54.090,3) (21.905,3) (44.981,0) (16.571,2) (39.989,9) (13.101,8) (31.920,5) 4.325,2 (1.446,0) (1.080,5) (10.791,7) (35.475,7) | (472.970,9) | (341.914,8) | | | (43.374,9) | (10.715,3) | | (43.337,1) | (16.586,9) | | | (16.479,9) | (5.425,4) | | (13.632,2) | (7.144,4) | | | (28.596,1) | (16.385,0) | | (38.149,8) | (15.313,8) | | | (14.832,8) | (1.738,4) | | (22.214,6) | - | | | (23.460,8) | (16.529,1) | | (27.480,7) | (16.613,7) | | | (7.996,6) | (5.105,2) | | (8.118,4) | (8.144,2) | | | - | (31.920,5) | | - | (18.453,1) | | | 4.325,2 | - | | 11.882,6 | - | | | - | (1.446,0) | | (0,5) | (2.717,7) | | | (32,1) | (1.048,5) | | (18,1) | (2.176,0) | | | (806,8) | (9.984,9) | | (1.337,6) | 2.208,8 | | | - | (35.475,7) | | - | (8.083,1) | 34.6 – Resultado Financeiro 34.6.1 – Receita financeira Em milhares de R$ | Descrição | Jun/2020 | Jun/2019 | |---|---|---| | Receitas financeiras | 56.708,2 | 4.530,5 | A variação de R$ 52,2 milhões decorre, principalmente, da atualização monetária referente às Letras Financeiras de Santa Catarina R$ 19,2 milhões, ao Superávit do Serpros no valor de R$ 6,6 milhões e a remuneração das aplicações bancárias.

Na fase de acumulação tem características de Contribuição Definida (CD) e para os benefícios programados, na fase pós concessão, bem como nos benefícios de risco, nos casos de morte e invalidez, possui características de Benefício Definido (BD). Em maio/2020, contava com 5.500 participantes ativos; 725 participantes assistidos e pensionistas e com um patrimônio social de R$ 3,5 bilhões, evidenciando um equilíbrio técnico superavitário de R$ 237,48 milhões. 35.2 – Programa de Auxílio Alimentação O benefício auxílio alimentação é regido pelo Programa de Alimentação do Trabalhador - PAT, Lei nº 6.321/1976 e cláusula 64ª do Acordo Coletivo de Trabalho - ACT vigente. É concedido mensalmente aos empregados e dirigentes, na modalidade cartão eletrônico. Para os empregados, no ACT 2019/2020, foi fixado o valor mensal de R$ 950,64 a partir de Maio de 2019. Para os dirigentes, o valor mensal pago é de R$ 778,03 desde abril/2019, conforme autorização emitida pela Secretaria de Coordenação e Governança das Empresas Estatais - SEST. 35.3 – Plano odontológico O PAS-ODONTO/Serpro é um benefício oferecido aos empregados e familiares. O programa é custeado na proporção de 50% (cinquenta por cento) do valor da mensalidade pelo SERPRO e pelos empregados. 35.4 – Programa de assistência assistência à saúde: PAS/Serpro O Programa de Assistência à Saúde do Serpro – PAS/Serpro é um plano de saúde instituído na modalidade de autogestão em recursos humanos, oferecido aos empregados e seus dependentes. Nota 36 – Partes relacionadas 36.1 – Remuneração de empregados A política salarial do Serpro contempla remunerações para o quadro de empregados sem função de chefia, variando entre R$ 1.689,34 e R$ 42.271,42. A média salarial para esses cargos é de R$ 9.934,73. Esta amplitude na maior remuneração refere-se a incorporação de horas extras, gratificações e adicional por tempo de serviço. Para os cargos com função de chefia, o intervalo de variação está compreendido entre R$ 5.698,53 e R$ 37.685,20 e média de R$ 17.168,42. 36.2 – Transações Comerciais Conforme prevê os artigos 3º e 4º do Estatuto Social, o objeto social do Serpro está relacionado à prestação de serviços de tecnologia da informação ao Governo Federal, e entre suas finalidades consta a de atender prioritariamente aos órgãos do Ministério da Economia. Assim, os clientes do Governo Federal são considerados partes relacionadas. A Receita Federal (RFB), no papel de principal cliente vinculado ao mesmo ministério supervisor, seguida pelos clientes que possuem membros em órgãos estatutários do Serpro, tem potencial de influência na tomada de decisão da Empresa. Em milhares de R$ | Clientes | Membros Órgãos estatutários | Receita Bruta | |---|---|---| | Secretaria da Receita Federal do Brasil – SRFB | | 741.155,1 | | Ministério da Economia – ME | CA(1) | | | Secretaria do Tesouro Nacional – STN | CF(2) | | | Procuradoria Geral da Fazenda Nacional – PGFN | CA(1); CF(1) | | | Demais Públicos | | | | Demais Clientes Privados | | | | Receita Estimada | | | | Total | | 1.555.013,3 | 36.3 – Entidade Fechada de Previdência Complementar É considerada como parte relacionada a EFPC Serpros Fundo Multipatrocinado que embora seja constituída sob a forma de sociedade civil sem fins lucrativos, com autonomia administrativo-financeira e personalidade jurídica de direito privado, administra os planos previdenciários dos empregados e ex-empregados do Serpro. Dessa forma é considerada parte relacionada do Serpro, tendo em vista que o Estatuto da EFPC prevê a participação dos empregados como participantes e a indicação de conselheiros e dirigentes por parte da patrocinadora. Nota 37 - Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados - LGPD Foi constatado que a adequação do Serpro no cumprimento da Lei, que entrará em vigor em de maio 2021 conforme medida provisória n° 959 de 29 de abril de 2020. Não afeta o reconhecimento, a mensuração ou a evidenciação de ativos, passivos, despesas e receitas. A adequação trata-se de uma reorganização e da reclassificação, principalmente, dos esquemas e metadados sensíveis (em relação aos dados pessoais) constantes das bases de dados. Dessa forma, entende-se que não há impactos na contabilidade, nem em provisões e tampouco impactos em ativos ou passivos contingentes. Nota 38 - Considerações acerca da Pandemia COVID-19 Em março de 2020, uma pandemia global foi declarada pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) decorrente das doenças relacionadas ao novo coronavírus (COVID-19), tendo o Congresso Nacional reconhecido a ocorrência de estado de calamidade pública em 20 de março de 2020, editando do Decreto Legislativo nº 06. Por sua vez, já em 16 de março, o SERPRO, ciente da gravidade da situação adotou medidas preventivas em relação ao quadro de empregados, agindo tempestivamente na transferência de todo o corpo funcional para as atividades em ​home office​, à exceção de um reduzido número de empregados, necessários ao funcionamento de seus centros de dados. Imediatamente criou sala de crise envolvendo toda a diretoria, as áreas de comunicação institucional, jurídica e de gestão de pessoas, adotando estratégia de comunicação (FAQ, lives da Diretoria a toda empresa, orientações pelos canais corporativos – Yo SERPRO, e-mail, Primeira Leitura) objetivando esclarecer e informar, de forma transparente e permanente, seu quadro de empregados, sem registrar qualquer incidente ou fato que afetasse os compromissos de entrega de produtos ou da manutenção dos sistemas estruturantes do Governo Federal. Continuamos a atuar de forma tempestiva e proativa para apoiar o governo no enfrentamento ao coronavírus (COVID-19) e ajudar a minimizar os efeitos provocados pela pandemia, com soluções digitais especialmente nas áreas de gestão pública, infraestrutura, saúde, educação e fazendária. A administração da Empresa continua alerta e agindo de forma a assegurar sua sustentabilidade econômico-financeira, adotando medidas de contenção de gastos, otimização de recursos e minimização dos potenciais impactos financeiros, além daquelas voltadas à preservação da saúde dos empregados. Cabe destacar que, até 30 de junho de 2020, não houve ocorrências que requeressem registros com impactos negativos na situação patrimonial do Serpro, haja vista: a continuidade de prestação de serviços junto aos clientes, sem redução do valor dos contratos vigentes; a consequente manutenção do valor de uso de seus ativos; o fortalecimento da posição da empresa como responsável pelos sistemas estruturantes do Governo Federal. A exemplo do trimestre anterior, ainda não estão suficientemente claros os efeitos na economia mundial e, em particular no Brasil, por quanto tempo estes efeitos irão perdurar e os impactos diretos e indiretos. O mundo atravessa uma grave crise devido a rápida disseminação da COVID-19, onde as consequências sociais e econômicas já sensibilizam o cotidiano da sociedade, empresas e Estado.

Update: September 4, 2018 University of Pennsylvania The Wharton School Management Department Venture Capital and Entrepreneurial Management MGMT 804, Section 1, Q1 – Fall 2018 MW 9:00 AM – 10:20 AM MGMT 804, Section 2, Q1 – Fall 2018 MW 10:30 AM – 11:50 AM Classroom: JMHH F90 Raffi Amit The Marie and Joseph Melone Professor and Professor of Management Phone: (215) 898-7731 Email: email@example.com Web Page: https://mgmt.wharton.upenn.edu/profile/amit/ TA: Vedant Thyagaraj (firstname.lastname@example.org) Course Overview and Design This elective course focuses on venture capital and the typical venture-backed start-up company, based on conventions and practices in the United States. Venture capital and the technology sector that it supports 1 continue to evolve structurally. This evolution traces from the dot-com bubble of 1998-2000; the dramatic economic upheaval in 2008-2009; the explosive growth of companies with an Internet-based business model; the globalization of business in general; the expansive adoption of consumerbased technologies, products, and services; and other influential changes. Our class will cover traditional conventions in the industry that have historically shaped investor and company behaviors, as well as the structural changes that we are witnessing now. The course will take all of these factors into consideration from the different and distinct perspectives of both the entrepreneur and the venture capital investor (including the angel and early-stage professional investor). As well, we will address management issues regarding the working relationship between the VC and the entrepreneur, corporate governance, and executive compensation. The entrepreneur's perspective addresses the challenges in organizing and financing the venture. The examination of this perspective reveals how entrepreneurs gain an understanding of the context and mechanics of valuing the business. Together, these matters help define the financing requirements of the business and suggest the approach for where and how to raise capital, and thereafter manage the relationship with investors. Complementing, and sometimes in counterpoint to, the entrepreneur's outlook is the perspective of the professional investor. As we explore the venture capitalist's perspective, we will address several aspects of the investment process including evaluating, structuring, and pricing venture capital investments. This will include the term sheet content and structure, term sheet negotiation, valuation methods, and the impact of successive rounds of financing on capitalization and ownership. All 1 For the purposes of our class, the technology sector includes companies in a wide range of industries that look to venture capital as a principal financing resource. These industries include traditional technology companies (software, internet, semiconductor, electronic hardware, etc.), biotech companies (medical device, pharmaceutical, healthcare, etc.), clean and green tech companies (fuel cell, solar panel, wind, battery storage, conservation technologies, etc.), homeland security companies, and consumer companies (social media, e-commerce, gaming, Web 2.0, etc.). of these factors set the stage for the relationship between management and investors, as well as the governance of the company. The course is designed to achieve three main objectives: 1. Introduce you to basic concepts and topics in venture capital and the typical venture-backed start-up 2. Help you to understand the issues in organizing and financing a VC-backed start-up company 3. Expose you to methods and perspectives on valuing and structuring venture capital investments The course is pragmatic in its orientation and will cover seven principal areas relevant to privately held, high-growthpotential start-ups. These include: * A brief overview of the venture capital industry today, as well as a discussion of the typical venture fund structure and related venture capital objectives and investment strategies * Common organizational issues encountered in the formation of a venture-backed start-up, including matters relating to initial capitalization, intellectual property, and early stage equity incentive and compensation arrangements * The challenges of fundraising, due diligence, and financing strategies * Valuation methodologies that form the basis of the negotiation between the entrepreneur and the venture capitalist in anticipation of a venture investment * Typical investment terms found in the term sheet and the dynamics of negotiation between the entrepreneur and the venture capitalist * Elements of compensation, both cash and equity, that are common to venture-backed companies in the technology sector * Corporate governance in the context of a venture-backed start-up company and the typical dynamics that play out between VC and the entrepreneur in the post-financing phase * Managing the exit The course is designed principally to address the interests of students who expect to embark on an entrepreneurial career, expect to assume a managerial role with a venture-backed start-up company, or wish to pursue a career in venture capital. In light of the time constraints associated with a half-unit course, the curriculum is confined to key fundamentals in the area of venture capital and start-up companies. The course will touch upon a range of fields including finance, accounting, strategy, and corporate law and will attempt to identify mainstream "best practices" in the area of high growth potential start-ups. Students completing the course will have a solid understanding of the questions and issues that face the typical start-up. There is a dedicated Canvas site for our course. Lecture notes, caselettes, and course materials that are not copyrighted by a third party, as well as periodic announcements, will be posted on this Canvas site. The Canvas URL is: https://canvas.upenn.edu/courses/1400231 * You will be able to access Study.net through Canvas. All third party copyrighted readings are found on Study.net. You should receive an email with log-in information from Study.net at the beginning of the semester. Please contact email@example.com with any logon issues. The assigned readings in the course are in the range of moderate to heavy, particularly at the beginning of the course. This syllabus, the assignments, and the readings have been organized so that students can manage the requirements efficiently. As in all courses, the lectures and discussions in the classroom will be much more meaningful if the required readings have been studied in advance. The readings are divided into two components: Required Readings and Supplemental Materials. The Required Readings are generally comprised of secondary source materials provided for background. The Supplemental Materials consist of optional reading materials and examples of legal or business documents included for the purpose of illustrating the themes discussed in class. All required readings and supplemental readings, organized by session, can be found on Canvas or in the Study.net window found on the Canvas website. The short case studies, or caselettes, which will be used in this course are based on actual occurrences (with some degree of poetic license as appropriate) and are substantially shorter than the traditional case study. Each caselette has been prepared with the objective of highlighting "best practices," conventions in the industry, or issues that are commonly encountered. The caselettes can be found on Canvas, and are part of the required readings. The classes generally will involve both lecture and case discussions. Interaction and dialogue with the instructor are strongly encouraged. For each caselette, specific study questions have been assigned. In most class sessions, we will consider these questions in addition to the material in the case. Students are asked to form study group teams of up to 6 students per team. Study groups are expected to meet to discuss each caselette. Choose your teammates carefully—changes will not be allowed once your study-group team has been formed. Requirements and Evaluation Wharton MBA grading practices will be used. The final course grade will be computed as follows: * Classroom participation 20% * Case memos and other assignments 20% * Negotiation submissions & presentation 20% 40% * Quiz Individual class participation (20%): Active class participation is very important for this course. The quality of your comments counts as much as your participation activity level. Because so much of the learning in this course occurs in the classroom, it is important that you attend every class. You may use tablets for note-taking only. As a common courtesy to other students and the instructor, and consistent with Wharton's "concert rules" and its electronic in the classroom policy (https://mba-inside.wharton.upenn.edu/wharton-mba-academic-policies/), any other use of electronics such as cell phones, tablets, or laptops is not permitted in the classroom. If you have to miss class, please notify the instructor and the TA in advance by e-mail. All students are expected to participate in class discussions. Students should expect to be called upon. If you are unprepared for the class session, please inform the instructor before the beginning of the class and you will not be called upon. You are required to display your Wharton-issued name tent in each class to facilitate teacher/student interaction. Note: Failure to display your Wharton-issued name tent may result in not getting any credit for the class session in which your Wharton-issued name tent was not displayed. Case memos and other assignments (20%): For each of the assigned caselettes or cases, before the start of class each study-group team will submit online, into a designated folder on Canvas, the write-up in which the study questions are addressed. The instructor recognizes the challenges of responding to the study questions of each caselette in advance of the class discussion of each topic. The write-up should be double-spaced, in 11-point font, and as a guideline should be limited to four pages in length. The four-page limit is for text only. You may attach as many numerical calculations as you wish—BUT your submission must be integrated into a single file. The names of the students in the study team must appear on front page of each memo. Write these as if you were writing a recommendation to the major decision-maker in the case. Write-ups will not be accepted after the class has met. Credit will only be given to write-ups which are posted online before the beginning of the class session to which the caselette is assigned. No credit will be given for write-ups which are posted late or not posted. Negotiation Exercise (20%): A critical component of the course is the negotiation exercise which enables students to apply and integrate their learning. The detailed instruction of the exercise will be handed out during the course. Each negotiation team is required to upload the deliverables of the negotiation exercise to Canvas before the deadline specified in the instructions (to be handed out in class). All team members are required to participate in the negotiation exercise and in the assigned presentation. More information about the exercise will be made available during the course. Quiz (40%): Will be held on October 17 th 2018 during class time. This is an open-book, open-notes quiz. Students must bring a calculator to the quiz. Peer Evaluation: Since 40% of your course grade depends on group work, you will be asked to evaluate the contributions of each of your study group members using a form that will be distributed in class. Specifically, at the end of the class you will be evaluated (on a 0-100 scale) by each of your team members based on your contribution to each category of group assignments, namely caselette/problem-set memos and the negotiation exercise. The average of the evaluation by all of your team members will be used to adjust your individual grade in each group-assignment category. Submission of this form in a timely manner is a requirement of this course. Note: The instructor will take great care to grade as fairly as possible and will not discuss grades at the end of the course. Students wishing to review their quiz are asked to make an appointment with the TA. Lecture Notes PDF files of the PowerPoint slides used in class will be posted to Canvas prior to each class session. Learning Environment Consistent with the MBA Resource Guide students are expected to strictly adhere to "concert rules," including: * Class starts and ends exactly on time. Students and faculty are expected to be prompt. * Students are to remain in attendance for the duration of the class, except in an emergency. * Students display their Wharton-issued name tents at every session. * All mobile phones are turned off. Note: The instructor reserves the right to apply grade penalties for any and all violations of these learning-environment guidelines. Feedback and Questions The instructor will do everything possible to provide you with a valuable and interesting learning experience. You are encouraged to provide feedback and suggestions at any time. For any course-related issues you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact the instructor via email, come to the office hour that is scheduled for Monday from 3-4PM, or set up an appointment with the instructor.

The Summary of Terms depicted in the caselette is conventional in most respects, and as is true of most legal documents, the wording is precise. However, a number of terms have been deliberately revised in ways that would create serious issues either for the Company or the Investors – there are a number of "traps for the unwary" that have been dropped into this term sheet. To assist in this exercise, sections of the term sheet that have not been planted with any "traps" have been italicized and marked with [brackets]. Your assignment is to identify each of the 20 or so traps. * Please bring a hard copy of Caselette #5 to this class meeting Session 9 Supplemental Readings * "A Counterintuitive System for Startup Compensation," by First Round Capital, First Round Capital (November 2014) * "Demystifying 409A Valuations," Parts 1 and 2, by Shri Bhashyam (November 2015) * "Employee Equity: How Much?" by Fred Wilson (November 22, 2010) * "Five Compensation-Related Mistakes Startups Make (And Should Avoid)," by Caine Moss of WSGR, Venture Beat (February 9, 2010) * "How We Explain Stock Options to Team Members & How Much Money They Would Make," by Joel Gascoigne (November 3, 2015) * "The Do's and Don'ts of Compensation for Early-Stage Company Employees," by Kristen Garcia Dumont and Jennifer Martinez, WSGR Entrepreneurs Report (Fall 2008) * Model Equity Incentive Plan (January 2014) Wednesday, October 3, 2017 Session 10: Corporate Governance and Exit Handout: Alantec case * Board members' duty to stockholders * Composition and roles of the board of directors in the private company * Sarbanes Oxley and the private company * Exit Strategies Monday, October 8, 2017 Session 11: Guest Speaker – Amir Goldman https://sgep.com/the-team/amir-goldman/ https://sgep.com/our-story/ Session 11 Required Readings * "After The Term Sheet," by Dennis T.

El precedente de La Pampa Tras ocho meses de inactividad, el Estado volvió a Madre de Dios para erradicar a mineros ilegales cerca de la Reserva Natural de Tambopata. Aumentar la frecuencia con que intervenga en campamentos y buscar a presuntas víctimas del delito de trata son las nuevas medidas incluidas en el plan contra la minería ilegal. En Madre de Dios habrá siete interdicciones más hasta diciembre. FRANCISCA GARCÍA DELGADO Texto: ElTiempoEspecial DANTE PAGGIO Fotos: ElTiempoEspecial Madre de Dios. Desde el cielo, el sector conocido como La Pampa se convierte a una cicatriz que abre los poros de una capa de piel verde. Ubicado en la zona de amortiguamiento de la Reserva Nacional de Tambopata, a la altura del kilómetro 15 de la carretera Interoceánica, es un espacio degradado por miles de mineros ilegales que extraen oro tratando de no tocar el vivero de la arena perteneciente, las lagunas de fango con restos químicos y los cientos de árboles muertos evidencian la voracidad minera. Por su avanzado deterioro, pese a estar dentro de un espacio protegido, La Pampa fue elegida por el Gobierno Central para realizar la primera interdicción contra la minería ilegal en el rincón. Estas habían estado detenidas desde hace ocho meses, tiempo que fue aprovechado para que los mineros proparan el bosque y liberan a 32 mujeres bajo el pretexto de trata de personas. “Tenemos programas de siete interdicciones similares hasta diciembre. Para entonces debemos tener controladas algunas de las zonas donde retomará actividad ilícita por falta de continuidad”, aseguró Antonio Fernández, alto comisionado en asuntos de formalización de la minería ilegal. El Gabinete, que acompañó 13 y 14 decisiones en la operación de La Pampa. Ex coordinador de las fiscales especializadas en trata de personas, Fernández asumió el cargo en febrero con la premisa de mantener una presencia constante del Estado en esta parte de la selva y un enfoque más humanitario frente a los partidos de la ilegalidad: las víctimas de explotación sexual. ÁREA VULNERABLE Madre de Dios es la región con más mineros ilegales. Según el gobierno regional alberga a unos 30 mil. Se estima que la minería ilegal en la zona de amortiguamiento de Tambopata aumentó 70% mientras no hubo interdicciones. Este fenómeno aumentó las posibilidades de que los ilegales irrumpan en la reserva nacional. Bastaría con que cruzara el río Malinowski, límite natural que marca el inicio del área intangible. El boom de los prostitutos Con la proliferación de los campamentos ilegales también creció el negocio del sexo. Y en La Pampa el lugar que daba la cara, por encima de otros 39 complejos similares, era conocido como “La 15”. Según informó, estrechamente, armado con troncos, calaveras, plásticos de color azul y triplay, recibía nombres y apellidos de la comunidad local que atendía. A la sazón, el más grande, poblado y equipado en el área desde noviembre del 2014. Un rápido vistazo por los alrededores permitió confirmar no solo las condiciones antihigiénicas, sino que permanecían las 22 mujeres que vivían en el campamento, sino también que, en el colmo del desinterés por su propia integridad física, los mineros ilegales le daban un consejo cerca de las cenizas de la El Mega 14, más cerca de la reserva. Dicho prostíbulo, que también hacía las veces de tablado adicional durante la última interdicción en Madre de Dios. Los policías especializados en trata y los fiscales que los acompañaron afirmaron que la mayoría de mujeres acarreadas en la zona tiene menos de 18 años. Aunque no se precisó de dónde procedían, todas fueron trasladadas en helicóptero hacia un albergue municipal en Puerto Maldonado. Allí deberán precisar si fueron enviadas al campamento en contra de su voluntad o si se consideraron a brindar sus servicios como camareras, cocineras o parejas sexuales a cambio de una compensación económica. Pero cuando culminó el traslado de las mujeres, de El Mega 15 solo quedaban escombros. El balance de lo incendiado incluyó 87 motos, 105 tolvas y 20 mil metros de tuberías, así como docenas de baldes con sustancias químicas. Consultados por este Diario, los agentes comentaron que, a diferencia de operaciones previas, no vieron una gran cantidad de infraestructuras que se esforzaron por romper el círculo de explotación que rodea a la minería ilegal. No obstante, como admitió el comisionado Fernández, la única forma de asegurar que las cosas se mantengan así es la constancia en las interdicciones. Y para llegar a la meta, todavía restan solo cinco meses. Descontento en el gobierno regional Elvira Suhuana, ex gerente general del Gobierno Regional de Madre de Dios y ministra de Justicia durante la gestión de Alejandro Toledo, criticó que el Ejecutivo no tenga mayor coordinación con las autoridades locales para avanzar las acciones de interdicción. En diálogo con El Comercio, el funcionario cuestionó la forma como se realizó el proceso de formalización de la minería al considerar que atenta contra la necesidad de trabajo de sus habitantes. “Con el pretexto de combatir la minería ilegal, se está jugando al pequeño minero”, dijo. Suhuana declaró en lugar del gobernador regional, Luis Otsuka, quien en un principio aceptó brindar una entrevista, pero luego abandonó sin dar explicaciones.

Piscitelli 2011 Osteoporosi maschile Consapevolezza E. Seeman IOF 2004, anno dedicato all’Osteoporosi maschile La mancanza di consapevolezza sull’osteoporosi e sulle relative fratture nei pazienti di sesso maschile è paragonabile a quella che si riscontrava 50 anni fa nei riguardi della donna. Poiché la durata della vita si è allungata, nel 2025 il numero delle fratture d’anca maschili sarà simile a quello attuale delle donne. P. Ebeling IOF 2014 anno dedicato all’Osteoporosi maschile Lo tsunami demografico dell’invecchiamento è su di noi, la diagnosi ed il trattamento dell’osteoporosi per gli uomini è una componente essenziale della nostra risposta a questa minaccia per la sostenibilità dei nostri sistemi sanitari. Osteoporosi maschile - OP primaria prevale nella donna, nell'uomo è più frequente la secondaria (60%). - La OP primaria nell'uomo è associata ad alterazioni della secrezione degli steroidi sessuali, del GH e dell’IGF-1, del PTH e della Vit. D e a disfunzioni dell’attività osteoblastica e stimolazione dell’attivazione osteoclastica. Kamel HK (2005) Male osteoporosis: new trends in diagnosis and therapy. Drugs Aging 22(9):741-748 Pernow Y et al (2006) Osteoblast dysfunction in male idiopathic osteoporosis. Calcif Tissue Int 78(2):90-97 Differenze tra ossa maschili e femminili - Le ossa maschili sono più grandi. - Nella pubertà l’apposizione periostale, stimolata dal testosterone, aumenta il diametro esterno e lo spessore corticale. - Il collo femorale ha un diametro maggiore ed una corticale più spessa. - I corpi vertebrali sono più larghi. G. Bianchi 2009 E. Seeman, 2004 Differenze tra ossa maschili e femminili In età senile in entrambi i sessi si verifica un assottigliamento della corticale ossea, nell'uomo si realizza un incremento compensatorio maggiore della sezione totale dell'osso per apposizione periostale che contribuisce a mantenere un effetto protettivo sulla incidenza di frattura. E. Seeman, 2004 Differenze tra ossa maschili e femminili A livello dell’osso trabecolare si verifica in entrambi i sessi un assottigliamento delle trabecole, nelle donne si ha anche la perforazione, con riduzione del numero. Duan Y 2003, Seeman E 2004, Riggs BL 2004, Khosla S 2006 Differenze tra ossa maschili e femminili La componente ossea trabecolare è quella più sensibile alle modificazioni degli estrogeni circolanti ed è per questo motivo che l’osteoporosi post-menopausale (e le conseguenti fratture) colpisce prevalentemente i distretti scheletrici a maggior contenuto di osso trabecolare come i corpi vertebrali e le estremità delle ossa lunghe (collo del femore e polso).

La perdita ossea è rapida negli uomini trattati con ADT, dell’ordine del 2-4% a livello della colonna lombare e dell’anca durante il primo anno di trattamento. Il 19,4% degli uomini che hanno assunto ADT aveva una frattura, rispetto al 12,6% di quelli che non assumevano ADT.

Siamo arrivati alla fine della legislatura. Non vi nascondo l’impegno e la voglia di progettare amministrare una città come Novi, proiettata verso profondi cambiamenti dal punto di vista economico e sociale. Oltre ad un’epoca economica internazionale tra le più difficili degli ultimi anni, abbiamo affrontato fronte di continui tagli e trasferimenti statali decisi dai vari Governi nazionali. Invece di lamentarci ci siamo rimboccati le maniche, lavorando per la città e con la città, sfruttando tutte le occasioni che si sono presentate, anche finanziamenti statali, regionali o comunitari. L’impegno ha pagato. Novi è progredita, basta guardarsi intorno. Dove prima c’era la vecchia libra è nato addirittura un nuovo quartiere. I servizi sanitari e sociali sono stati ristrutturati, realizzate le prime case di riposo pubbliche, presto aprirà il centro diurno per portatori di handicap. Abbiamo il Movicentro, nuovi posteggi e nuove rotatorie. La sicurezza è aumentata grazie all’impegno delle Forze dell’Ordine e alla visione di sicurezza. Si è lavorato per l’ambiente con la raccolta porta a porta dei rifiuti. I privati continuano a investire portando benefici all’economia. Presto inizieranno importanti opere di edilizia scolastica (la nuova scuola Mirieri della Benedicita ed il trasferimento dell’asilo nido Aquilone all’Isola dei Bambini), di manutenzione, e tanti altri interventi e iniziative che potete leggere all’interno del giornale. E grazie a questa vitalità, all’impegno quotidiano per governare e favorire lo sviluppo, che la nostra città sta reagendo alla crisi meglio di altre realtà. Per non smentirci, abbiamo lavorato duro in occasione dell’ultimo bilancio di Previsione: oltre a fare pulire i conti, abbiamo messo a punto una serie di misure per alleviare le difficoltà dei cittadini. Ad esempio, le politiche sociali a favore delle famiglie e delle categorie più deboli, il sostegno alle aziende e nuove milioni di euro di investimenti pubblici in infrastrutture, la ripresa economica sul territorio. In attesa di interventi strutturali più consistenti e incisivi da parte del Governo nazionale, pensiamo che anche i Comuni debbano fare la loro parte. Noi li stiamo facendo, convinti che anche questi “piccoli” ma significativi contributi possano riavviare speranza e fiducia nel futuro. Lorenzo Robbiani email@example.com Torna l’ora legale IL 29 MARZO ALLE ORE 2,00 RICORDATEVI DI SPOSTARE GLI OROLOGI AVANTI DI UN’ORA DAL 27 AL 29 MARZO AL CENTRO FIERISTICO Dal 27 al 29 marzo il centro fieristico ospita la Fiera AUTO Nuovadimensione, vetrina del mercato dei motori intesa come risparmio: risparmio nell’acquisto, risparmio nella gestione dell’auto, risparmio nei consumi e nell’emissione di fumi inquinanti. Si tratta di un’interessante varietà di proposte concrete sull’ormai prossima realtà automobilistica. Saranno presenti l’80% delle case automobilistiche con i loro modelli più convenienti e a basso consumo, inoltre ci sarà spazio anche per le due ruote, con i modelli 2009 delle migliori marche, ed esemplari ad energia alternativa. Tra i convegni in programma, uno sarà dedicato al rapporto tra gli enti, i comuni ed i territori con il problema del traffico. Mastro Artigiano, rassegna dell’artigianato piemontese d’eccellenza, festeggia la quinta edizione e si presenta con tante novità all’appuntamento del 20, 21 e 22 marzo prossimi. All’interno del centro fieristico Dolci Vare di Novi, saranno presenti prestigiose aziende con il meglio delle loro produzioni: ceramica, legno, restauro, stampa, sartoria e tessile, vetro, gioielleria, strumenti musicali, ferro battuto, decorazione, restauro e ancora, pasticceria, ditillati e panificazione. All’entrata i visitatori troveranno la prima grande sorpresa: un intero appartamento ideato ed arredato con prodotti delle aziende espositrici. Due le mostre a tema: una dedicata agli antichi scudi del Museo Ferrero di Alessandria; l’altra ai calzature provenienti dal Museo “Pietro Berolin” di Vigevano, dove saranno presenti anche alcune paia di “calzature papali” appartenute ai Pontefici Pio XI, Giovanni Paolo II e Benedetto XVI. Due anche le degustazioni in programma domenica 22 marzo a partire dalle ore 17. Il pubblico potrà degustarsi con il gelato artigianale e con l’inedito abbinamento tra il cioccolato artigianale ed il barolo chinato. Non mancheranno gli stand riservati ai Mastri coltellinai provenienti da tutta Italia, le dimostrazioni di arte fabbrile ed i momenti di intrattenimento. Da non perdere l’appuntamento con “Aspettando la Milano - San Remo” (venerdì 20 marzo ore 21 Museo Campionissimi); nel corso della serata, alla quale parteciperà anche la Presidente della Regione Piemonte Maria Elisabetta Alberti-Schroeder, si svolgerà la premiazione della 43ª di Guido Mezzina, medaglia d’oro alle Olimpiadi di Helsinki nel 1952. In programma anche il Gran Galà dell’eccellenza artigiana (sabato 21 marzo, ore 21) con la consegna del Premio “Lino Persano”. Orari: venerdì 17-23; sabato 10-23; domenica 15-20, INGRESSO LIBERO all’interno Differenziare meglio si può Bilancio 2008: dal Comune misure anticrisi Arriva la Settimana della Cultura DRASTICA RIDUZIONE DEI RIFIUTI IN DISCARICA Differenziare meglio si può I risultati ottenuti a due anni dall’avvio del nuovo sistema di raccolta rifiuti sono più che incoraggianti. Il confronto con la situazione precedente è sicuramente positivo. Confrontando i dati del grafico, la percentuale di raccolta differenziata nella nostra città è salita dal 26 al 45 per cento (dato medio del 2008). Un dato ancora più confortante è la minor quantità di rifiuti che vanno a finire nella discarica, il che testimonia che la raccolta differenziata è reale e non viene influenzata da altri fattori. A livello consortile si è passati da 90 mila a poco più di 73 mila tonnellate - una riduzione di quasi l’19% -, mentre per la sola città di Novi la riduzione supera addirittura il 32%. Questo significa che la gran parte dei novesi sta contribuendo a realizzare un grande obiettivo ambientale che va a beneficio di tutta la comunità. Fare meno, però, è comunque possibile, soprattutto perché la qualità di rifiuto raccolto offre interessanti margini di miglioramento. Prima tra tutti, l’umido che ancora troppo spesso viene inserito in sacchetti di materiale non compatibile con il riciclo. Questo sarà l’obiettivo che insieme doveremo porci: tenere alta la quantità e migliorare la qualità della raccolta. Intanto sono in arrivo due importanti novità relative al servizio di raccolta. 1 ISPETTORE AMBIENTALE In linea con le decisioni assunte dall’Assemblea del CSR e per trovare risposta ad un servizio di raccolta rifiuti in grado di ottenere risultati sempre più apprezzabili ed incidere in modo più significativo sulle abitudini dei cittadini e degli operatori è stata istituito l’Ispettore ambientale. Tale figura eserciterà un costante monitoraggio del territorio ed un controllo sul comportamento dell’utenza affinché possano essere risolti – in via preventiva - i fenomeni legati all’errato conferimento ed all’abbandono incontrollato dei rifiuti. Il suo ruolo sarà finalizzato prevalentemente alla prevenzione dei comportamenti scorretti e, soltanto quando sarà strettamente necessario, potrà ricorrere all’elevazione della sanzione amministrativa. L’Ispettore ambientale avrà il compito di svolgere un ruolo di controllo e verifica anche nei confronti degli operatori di ACOS Ambiente e potrà intervenire per risolvere eventuali anomalie del servizio o segnalare esigenze di modifica e/o potenziamento dei servizi. 2 ISOLA ECOLOGICA Entro l’estate entrerà finalmente in funzione il centro di raccolta dedicato alle frazioni differenziate dei rifiuti oltre alle batterie delle auto, agli olii esausti, a pile ed apparecchiature elettriche ed elettroniche ecc.. L’isola ecologica, che sarà realizzata in zona C.I.P.I.A.N. completerà in questo modo l’offerta dei servizi forniti da ACOS Ambiente in materia di raccolta dei rifiuti a livello territoriale. La struttura sarà presidiata dal personale ACOS Ambiente e rispetterà almeno quattro giorni di apertura la settimana, compreso il sabato e la domenica. Oltre a ricevere tutte le frazioni di rifiuto citate, sarà anche possibile conferire modeste quantità di rifiuto inerte proveniente da piccoli interventi edili effettuati da privati cittadini, evitando l’onere dell’attesa per l’accesso alla discariche pubbliche. In tal modo si potranno intercettare efficacemente quel flusso di rifiuti che, per via di mancanza di entità, rischierebbe altresì di essere smaltito abusivamente lungo i fossi e a margine delle strade più periferiche e si offrirà a tutti i cittadini un ulteriore alternativa ai servizi già attualmente in atto (es. ritiro ingombri a domicilio, servizio raccolta scarti del verde...).

Approvato il documento programmatico per salvaguardare la fascia collinare. Il Consiglio Comunale ha approvato due importanti provvedimenti urbanistici che ponono in bocca uno svolgimento più sostenibile della città, più attento alla salvaguardia ambientale e all’utilizzo di fonti di energia rinnovabili. Il primo consiste nell’adeguamento del regolamento edilizio comunale alle disposizioni nazionali in materia di edilizia sostenibile e tutela dall’inquinamento atmosferico, che prevedono una serie di accorgimenti per le abitazioni di nuova costruzione o in fase di ristrutturazione. Tra le novità principali rientra l’obbligo di garantire una produzione energetica da fonti rinnovabili - ad esempio con pannelli fotovoltaici - non inferiore a 1kW per ciascuna unità immobiliare residenziale e a 5kW per fabbricati industriali. Altre norme riguardano il risparmio idrico, il recupero delle acque meteoriche, l’efficienza termica. Infine, l’orientamento degli edifici: salvo impedimenti di natura tecnica, economica e funzionale, le nuove costruzioni dovranno essere posizionate con l’asse longitudinale principale lungo la diretttrice est-ovest, con una tolleranza di 45°; gli ambienti nei quali si svolge la maggior parte della vita abitativa dovranno essere disposti a sud-est, sud e sud-ovest conformemente al loro fabbisogno di sole. «Il nuovo regolamento edilizio – spiega l’Assessore all’Urbanistica, Guido Tropepioli – si inserisce nella legislazione statale già emanata dal 1° gennaio di quest’anno, che i cittadini sono comunque tenuti a rispettare. In realtà, le norme comunali cercano di applicarne i principi in maniera più evoluta, per esempio prevedendo delle deroghe per non snaturare gli edifici all’interno del centro storico». Inoltre, è stato approvato un documento programmatico propedeutico alla variante al P.R.G. (Piano regolatore Generale) per la disciplina dell’area collinare, compresa tra il centro e quella di salvaguardare la fascia collinare novese. A questo scopo sarà avviata un’analisi approfondita del territorio attraverso lo studio del paesaggio, degli insediamenti abitativi e delle aziende agricole ed eventuali criticità ambientali. Commissione Locale per il Paesaggio E’ stata nominata la Commissione Locale per il Paesaggio che risulta composta da Carlo Bidone di Pozzolo Fornigaro (agronomo), Ilde Ghio di Alessandria (architetto), Giuseppe Merlano di Novi Ligure (architetto), Andrea Milanese di Alessandria (architetto), Mariano G. Santaniello di Novi Ligure (architetto). La nomina, deliberata dalla Giunta Comunale, è avvenuta a seguito della valutazione dei curricula presentati dai candidati. La Commissione, una volta insediatà, avrà il compito di esprimere il proprio parere in merito alla stesura e autorizzazione del piano paesistico di conservazione comune, nonché relativamente agli interventi sugli immobili di interesse storico artistico individuati dal Piano Regolatore Generale. Inoltre, alla Commissione potrà essere richiesto di esaminare istanze anche di altri Comuni che sceglieranno di associarsi con quello di Novi Ligure. Un Parco Avventura al Castello Tutta l’area rimarrà accessibile al pubblico, previsti interventi di manutenzione straordinaria sul verde per 200 mila euro. Novità in arrivo per il Parco Castello, principale polmone verde della città. In vista di un rilancio dell’area, il Comune ha infatti emanato un bando di “realizzazione di impianti ricettivi” per la creazione di un Parco Avventura. Le aziende specializzate in questo tipo di attività dovranno far pervenire le loro proposte, che poi saranno esaminate ai fini di stipulare una convenzione. I progetti prevedono percorsi sospesi, ponti sospesi, altalene Tibetani realizzati con funi, adatti sia ai bambini che agli adulti grazie alla presenza di personale qualificato e ad appositi sistemi di sicurezza. Tali strutture saranno rinnovabili e realizzate con materiali eco compatibili, nel pieno rispetto della vegetazione circostante. Tutta l’area del Castello rimarrà accessibile al pubblico gratuitamente, solo l’uso dei nuovi impianti comporterà il costo di un biglietto, come peraltro succede nel caso di altre attività sportive. L’impresa vincitrice sarà stipulata la convenzione avrà anche la possibilità di gestire il punto ristoro “Bar Parco Castello”. Ma dovrà effettuare la manutenzione straordinaria del verde pubblico. Tali interventi, che comportano una spesa di circa 200 mila euro, saranno quindi a carico del gestore e verranno eseguiti da un piano già esistente. Dopo l’annuncio ufficiale del Comune, appena individuato il progetto migliore, partiranno immediatamente i lavori. Una volta realizzato, il Parco Avventura sarà un elemento di attrazione in più per la città e contribuirà a rilanciare il Parco Castello, anche attraverso un maggior decoro e controllo dell’area. DA LUNEDI’ 23 MARZO Cimitero, prenotazioni per nuovi loculi Da lunedì 23 marzo si aprono le prenotazioni per ottenere in concessione i nuovi loculi che saranno costruiti in seguito all’ampliamento del reparto Sud-Est del Cimitero Urbano. I requisiti per fare richiesta riguardano innanzitutto l’età, infatti è necessario aver compiuto 65 anni. Inoltre, possono effettuare le prenotazioni coloro che sono nati o sono attualmente residenti a Novi Ligure, oppure chi è stato residente in città per almeno un decennio. I lavori di ampliamento della presezione saranno stati in costruzione circa 210 loculi che verranno realizzati nel corso dell’anno grazie al primo lotto dei lavori di ampliamento. Le tariffe sono differenti a seconda della fila di collocazione e variano da un minimo di 1.549,00 ad un massimo di 2.582,00 €. In base alla normativa vigente, la concessione ha una durata di 40 anni, ma potrebbe pure essere prorogata a voci di credi. Per informazioni e prenotazioni è necessario rivolgersi all’Ufficio Servizi Cimiteriali del Comune (via Giacometti, 22 – piano terra; tel. 0143.772208) dal lunedì a venerdì dalle ore 14,30 alle 16,30.

Nasce la prima scuola eco compatibile della città Iniziati i lavori per la nuova “Martiri della Benedicta”. A breve apre il cantiere per l’adeguamento dell’Isola dei Bambini I primi sondaggi del terreno hanno dato il via al cantiere per la realizzazione della nuova scuola “Martiri della Benedicta” di via Rattazzi. L’opera nasce dalla progettazione partecipata avviata dal programma “Contratti di Quartiere 2”, grazie al quale beneficia di apposito finanziamento, ed è frutto di numerosi confronti tra i progettisti e l’studio Camblaghi, disposto in modo dell’isola. I principali contributi strutturali saranno quelli della bioarchitettura, disciplina che prevede un utilizzo razionale e sostenibile delle risorse ed un’attenzione particolare al risparmio energetico. Si tratta di uno dei primi progetti avviati in Piemonte nel settore pubblico a prevedere queste particolari tecniche di costruzione, come, ad esempio, l’impiego di materiale eco-compatibile e l’utilizzo di fonti energetiche rinnovabili. La nuova struttura sorgerà nell’area occupata dal campo di calcio “collinetta” e, una volta ultimata, sostituirà l’attuale edificio che ospita la scuola elementare. Inoltre, sta per partire un’altra importante opera di edilizia scolastica vale a dire l’adeguamento dell’edificio “Isola dei Bambini” che sarà trasformato all’uso di palestra. In questi giorni, infatti, si è conclusa la procedura per la gara d’appalto. La ditta esecutrice sarà la Famar di Alessandria. L’opera, resa possibile grazie all’avanzo di amministrazione 2007, permetterà anche di aumentare posti a disposizione per i bambini, che passeranno dai 36 attuali fino ad un massimo di 45. I lavori inizieranno già nel mese di aprile. Pronto il centro diurno socio formativo Finanziato da Comune e Regione, ospiterà 20 portatori di handicap Sta per completarsi la Cittadella dell’Assistenza, il complesso sanitario che sorge in Salita Brichetta nell’area che in passato ospitava la colonia solare. Tra pochissimo, infatti, la struttura, portata a termine l’anno scorso, sarà affiancata dal nuovo centro diurno socio formativo dotato di venti posti per l’assistenza ai portatori di handicap. L’edificio, una volta ultimata, andrà a sostituire l’attuale sede di Arquata Scrivia. Proprio in questi giorni i lavori stanno per volgere a termine, molto probabilmente l’inizio della loro terra già nel mese di aprile. L’edificio, situato accanto alla Rsa, è stato realizzato grazie ad un mutuo di 590 mila euro accesso dal Comune di Novi Ligure a cui si somma una cifra di pari importo finanziata dalla Regione Piemonte. FORZA E VIRTÙ Conto alla rovescia per la nuova palestra E’ prevista entro la fine di maggio la fine dei lavori per la nuova palestra della Forza e Virtù. La struttura è stata realizzata utilizzando una parte dei locali del FoAl, il centro di formazione professionale situato in via Casteldragone. Il nuovo volume è stato inserito nello spazio esistente dell’edificio. In totale il locale riservato alle attività ginniche misura 36 metri di lunghezza e 21 metri di larghezza, per un’altezza di 5 metri ed una superficie totale di circa 780 metri quadri. All’interno dello spazio palestra, in una buca dove saranno montate le macchine per gli esercizi in femminile, una volta riempita di gomma piuma permetterà agli atleti di poter provare in sicurezza le uscite dai vari attrezzi. Il pavimento resterà in cemento, ma si provvederà al rifacimento superficiale mediante la stesura di vernice poliuretanica ad alta resistenza. La tettoia e l’ingresso sono adibiti a locale ingresso, ufficio segreteria e servizi igienici per gli atleti. Il pubblico entrerà al primo piano, dove sono stati ricavati due uffici per la direzione e l’archivio sportivo. Le pareti dell’ingresso saranno rivestite con gli aloni e la documentazione storica in possesso della società novese di ginnastica, in modo da creare una sorta di piccolo museo che ripercorre le tappe dei centosedici anni di attività della Forza e Virtù. Ai locali posti a sinistra della tettoia osteranno una piccola palestra utilizzata per l’attività motrice dei bambini più piccoli o, come luogo di riscaldamento per gli atleti impegnati in gara; lo spazio potrà essere utilizzato anche per altre attività sportive. Asfaltature e potenziamento illuminazione La Giunta comunale ha approvato il progetto definitivo per il ripristino della pavimentazione in diverse strade cittadine. Il provvedimento permetterà di accendere il mutuo necessario al finanziamento delle opere. La spesa prevede un totale di 100.000 euro. In questi giorni, intanto, sono in corso altri interventi di manutenzione che erano stati rimandati a causa delle cattive condizioni atmosferiche. Questi lavori riguardano alcuni tratti di via Mazzini, piazza Repubblica e via Pietro Isolani. Sempre a breve, inoltre, prenderà il via il potenziamento dell’illuminazione pubblica. In questo caso gli interventi in programma riguardano la piazzale dell’ex caserma Giorgi, strada Salita di Pasturana, le vie Stradella e Mulino di Sotto nel basso Pieve e l’ultimo tratto di via Garibaldi compreso tra viale Safari e via Mazzini. La piscina raddoppia con il Villaggio benessere Finalmente è ufficiale. Il 2 maggio è previsto il taglio del nastro per il Villaggio benessere realizzato in via Rosselli, accanto alla piscina comunale. La nuova struttura, che verrà gestita dalla società Obm Group, si differenzia dagli altri centri fitness per la grande varietà di proposte indirizzate ad una utenza molto vasta. L’obiettivo è quello di proporre vari pacchetti per il benessere psicofisico e accountentare non solo gli sportivi che svolgono attività agonistiche, ma anche coloro che intendono solo mantenere la forma e stare in salute. Nel Villaggio benessere nascerà una moderna palestra, la sauna, spazi accoglienza. Ma altre sorprese saranno svelate all’inaugurazione. Intanto, è imminente l’inizio dei lavori per la sistemazione dell’area antistante la piscina comunale. Il primo lotto del progetto, approvato dalla Giunta comunale, prevede la realizzazione di un ampio striscio del parcheggio esistente con relativi collegamenti viabili e pedonali, e dell’area sterzata situata fra la piscina e la strada che collega via Casteldragone. Verranno realizzate nuove aiuole insieme ad ampi marciapiedi con possibilità di utilizzare ciclopedonale, adibito alle persone per la mobilità attiva, delle barriere architettoniche e a future installazioni del servizio bike-sharing. Infine si procederà al rifacimento delle reti dei sottoservizi e al potenziamento dell’illuminazione pubblica. Nelle fasi successive, si continuerà nella riqualificazione di tutta la vialetta antistante la piscina in particolare dell’asse di via Rosselli, mediante la realizzazione di una nuova pavimentazione. Inoltre saranno riorganizzate le aree comunali attraverso la realizzazione di parcheggi, spazi verdi organizzati e zone di sosta. Il progetto, infine, prevede la disciplina della circolazione per rendere fluido il traffico e agevolare il più possibile la viabilità interna di quartiere. Grande successo per Alessandria Top Wine La nona edizione si è svolta al centro fieristico Dolci Terre di Novi, 180 i vini in degustazione Un pubblico numeroso e qualificato ha fatto da cornice al “9° banco d’assaggio” ideato da Maurizio Fava e diretto da Nadia Biancato che si è tenuto all’interno del centro fieristico Dolci Terre di Novi il 1° e 2 marzo scorsi. Alla realizzazione dell’edizione 2009 di Alessandria Top Wine, che è stata dedicata alla memoria di Giancarlo Botti, hanno collaborato la Provincia di Alessandria ed il Comune di Novi Ligure. Il primo successo consiste nella partecipazione di tanti enti ed associazioni (Consorzio Tutela del Gavi, Alexala, Alto Monferrato, Coldiretti, Confagricoltura, Cia, UIR e AIS) sempre presenti in ogni momento della rassegna. La presenza del giorno non ha aiutato l’affluenza di pubblico che è stata molto qualificata nella seconda giornata. Proprio il pubblico ha decretato tra i 180 vini in degustazione i Top Wine 2009: sono il Gavi docg del Comune di Gavi Minava 2005 dell’azienda Nicola Bergamini di Rovereto di Gavi; Alessandria Top Wine Bianco che è stato una volta di più quanto la master class del 2 marzo ha confermato: i vini bianchi di qualità migliorano invecchiando), il Monfortino Rosso doc La Decima Vendemmia 2006 dell’azienda Cascina La Madalena di Roccagimalda (Premio Top Wine Rosso), il Brachetto d’Acqui docg Pineta 2008 dell’azienda Strada del Vino di Castelletto d’Asti (AIS 2008). Il vincitore della cassetta di Girotondo messe in palio dall’Associazione Massimo Accornero Onlus beneficiaria di Alessandria Top Wine per il suo progetto di implementazione tecnologica del settore di Te-Aziende, è stato l’Ospedale di Alessandria, è Paolo Colnago di Buriasco (Mà) a dimostrazione che il banco d’assaggio coglie sempre nel segno: attrarre nella terra di produzione dei vini in degustazione importanti quantità di appassionati dal nord al sud. Un altro successo di Alessandria Top Wine è da ricercarsi anche nell’ottimo riscontro avuto dalle due master class, “Vini Rossi, modernità nella tradizione” e “I Grandi Bianchi migliorano invecchiando”, che hanno messo in evidenza le qualità dei vini prodotti nella provincia con il maggior numero di doc docg in Italia. Promuovere il Gavi Docg Il Comune di Novi Ligure, in collaborazione con il Consorzio Tutela del Gavi, ha avviato un progetto di promozione del Gavi Docg come prodotto tipico e come offerta del territorio che lo produce. Si è trattato di un percorso formativo di due giornate per fornire agli operatori del commercio che operano nell’Alto Novese (gestori di bar e mesicca vino estoratori, piccoli negozi specializzati) consigli per valorizzare o inserire tra le loro proposte il Gavi docg. La prima si è svolta al Museo dei Campionissimi, in occasione della rassegna Alessandria Top Wine, con l’obiettivo di mettere a confronto il Gavi con gli altri bianchi del territorio novese – per padroneggiare la qualità e le caratteristiche evolutive. Alle giornate formative, completamente gratuite, hanno partecipato una trentina di operatori. Ora i gestori dovranno di questi verificherà i risultati ottenuti e l’impegno dimostrato per diffondere la qualità del grande bianco piemontese e del territorio novese. Tutti gli operatori saranno coinvolti in campagne di promozione ed i più virtuosi riceveranno vari riconoscimenti, ad esempio in occasione della prossima edizione di Dolci Terre di Novi o nel corso di iniziative promosse dal Distretto Commerciale Novese.

FANTASY FARM PREMIA LE SCUOLE Si avvicina il gran finale per Fantasy farm, concorso artistico indetto dal Comune in occasione della Fiera del bestiame. I bambini del medio e del basso Novese che le scuole dovevano svolgere era la creazione della maschera di un animale della fattoria ispirandosi, in particolare, al tema del cavallo, il coniglio, il capra, o al maiale. Al concorso hanno partecipato 47 classi di tutte le scuole novese. La cerimonia di premiazione è in programma mercoledì 25 marzo 2009 alle ore 9.00 presso il Centro Commerciale di Novi Ligure.

Il primo premio è andato a Giovanni Occhioni che frequenta la I B della scuola media Doria. Secondo premio è andato a Stefania Pianelli (A) della scuola media (situata sulle colline) Drago, Giulia Parodi, Nanna Ferro e Michela Bergadano. Il terzo premio è per la poesia di Erica Massara, sempre della scuola media Doria. Infine, menzione speciale per la favola scritta da Beatrice Fontana (classe I, media Doria). Nessun aumento alle tasse comunali Nella seduta del 2 marzo scorso, il Consiglio Comunale ha approvato il Bilancio di Previsione 2009. I documenti di programmazione hanno ottenuto 12 voti favorevoli e 7 contrari (alle pagg. 11 e 12 i commenti dei capigruppo). Anche il contenimento della pressione fiscale contribuisce a rilanciare i consumi privati e rappresenta un valido strumento per sostenere l’impresa e contrastare gli effetti negativi della crisi economica. Di questo ne è fermamente convinta l’Amministrazione comunale novese che, per il secondo anno consecutivo, non aumenterà le proposte ed imposte, nonostante i costi sostenuti per assicurare i servizi; ad esempio quello della raccolta rifiuti, abbiamo subito negli anni degli aumenti significativi. La manovra finanziaria, predisposta dall’Assessore al Bilancio Marco Bertoli, prevede inoltre quasi nove milioni di euro di investimenti, che vanno a sommarsi agli interventi già approvati e finanziati negli scorsi anni ed in via di cantiereizzazione. Un altro significativo impegno di spesa – per 120 mila euro – riguarda il ripristino della copertura del pattinodromo comunale, gravemente lesionata dalla neve. Altri lavori partiranno in primavera, come la sistemazione dei tratti stradali che hanno subito danni per la presenza della neve e dei forti gelate. Con l’attuale mancanza finanziaria – ha spiegato Marubbi - riusciremo peraltro a fronteggiare questa situazione critica, stanziando ciò che serve sulle partite correnti e mettendo a disposizione da città almeno 300 mila euro per i lavori di pulizia delle strade da realizzare nell’immediato futuro. Per il potenziamento dell’illuminazione pubblica andranno subito 50 mila euro. Inoltre, se si concretizzerà la vendita di immobili comunali non più utilizzati, dai prossimi mesi saranno molti numerosi i fondi pubblici per migliorare la qualità della vita in città (vedi tabella a pag. 10). Inoltre, il Consiglio Comunale ha approvato all’unanimità il proponente del gruppo che di stanza 50 mila euro per la sistemazione dei Giardini Pubblici di viale Saffi e ulteriori 10 mila euro per i contributi destinati al restauro degli edifici di culto. Tra le risorse immediate: 300 mila euro per le strade comunali 120 mila euro per la nuova copertura del pattinodromo 50 mila per l’illuminazione pubblica Restituzione del 20% Irpef Anche Novi è d’accordo L’Assessore Marubbi ha evidenziato come le scelte operate negli ultimi anni sulla finanza locale stiano penalizzando pesantemente i conti delle amministrazioni comunali. Per la nostra città, ad esempio, la riduzione dei trasferimenti statali registrata nel 2009, rispetto alle previsioni iniziali per il 2008, è di poco inferiore ai 400 mila euro. Inoltre, permangono forti incertezze sulla consistenza effettiva, sia in termini di competenza che soprattutto di cassa, dei flussi in entrata che dovrebbero sostituire l’Ici sulle abitazioni principali. Per questi motivi la Giunta ha proposto al Consiglio Comunale di aderire alla proposta di legge in materia di finanza pubblica e per l’attuazione del federalismo fiscale. L’iniziativa, partita dai territori, ha come obiettivo la piena autonomia dei Comuni nella gestione delle entrate e, in particolare, la richiesta di una partecipazione del 20% al gettito dell’imposta sul reddito delle persone fisiche (IRPEF). Il documento è stato approvato all’unanimità. Recependo la proposta fatta dal Consigliere Marco Bertoli nelle scorse sedute, Marubbi, inoltre, ha presentato all’Assemblea un ordine del giorno in cui si chiede al Governo di sostenere i Comuni per fronteggiare – in piena autonomia e responsabilità finanziaria – situazioni atmosferiche eccezionali che richiedono impegni economici considerevoli per le casse comunali. Anche in questo caso il documento è stato approvato all’unanimità. Il criterio di calcolo della tassa annuale, a tariffa intera è il seguente: (mq. X tariffa netta) + 10% (ex addizionale ECA) + 5% (addizionale provinciale)= IMPORTO TOTALE. BILANCIO DI PREVISIONE 2009 Dal Comune misure per contrastare la crisi economica In arrivo aiuti alle famiglie, sostegno alle aziende e investimenti pubblici per rilanciare l'economia L'ultima manovra finanziaria della legislatura, pur nei limiti imposti dalla normativa e dal ruolo che spetta ai Comuni, ha cercato di dare risposte concrete al momento del momento attraverso misure ammissibili da applicare a livello locale. Le linee guida si possono sintetizzare nelle politiche sociali a sostegno delle famiglie e delle categorie più deboli (sostegno tributario ai riducitori del costo per la mensa scolastica, aumento dei contributi agli affitti), nel sostegno alle aziende (oneri di urbanizzazione invariati, riduzione del 10% del prezzo per le aree industriali anche non assegnate, bando per aiutare la nascita di nuove aziende) e negli investimenti pubblici (poco meno di nove milioni di euro) in grado di aiutare la ripresa economica sul territorio. Oltre ai problemi congiunturali, il Bilancio pone le basi per lo sviluppo futuro della città fissando alcuni principi fondamentali, quali una politica efficiente di gestione ambientale (cambi rifiuti, risparmio energetico in edilizia, utilizzo di fonti di energia rinnovabili) insieme alle linee portanti del Piano Strategico, che saranno presto esaminate dal Consiglio Comunale. NOVI È LA REALTÀ PROVINCIALE CHE STA REAGENDO MEGLIO L'OCCUPAZIONE Nonostante la crisi internazionale, l'andamento occupazionale registrato dal Centro per l'impiego di Novi segna ancora un livello di crescita rispetto alla situazione precedente. I dati ufficiali del "Servizio Politiche attive del Lavoro" della Provincia di Alessandria, dicono che nel 2008 nel Comune di Novi ci sono stati 4.488 avviamenti al lavoro e 4.391 cessazioni. Il saldo quindi è positivo (+ 97). Saldo positivo anche per l'intero territorio novese, dove si sono registrati 10.711 avviamenti e 10.624 cessazioni (+ 87). IL TURISMO E' ancora in miglioramento il movimento turistico. I più recenti dati disponibili si riferiscono ai primi sei mesi del 2008, periodo nel quale in città si è registrato un aumento degli arrivi del 19,6% e un'altrettanto decisa crescita delle presenze che passano da 14.495 a 17.773 (+ 19,1%). E' un notevole andamento suddiviso per settori: in quello alberghiero gli arrivi aumentano di 1.298 unità (passano da 7.100 a 8.398) e le presenze di 1.048 (da 14.729 a 15.777), nell'extralberghiero gli arrivi passano da 181 a 310 e le presenze da 197 a 796. LE AZIENDE Continua l'andamento positivo del movimento delle aziende novesi. I numeri forniti dalla Camera di Commercio di Alessandria si riferiscono alla fine del 2008: rispetto all'anno precedente, il numero di aziende è cresciuto di 33 unità (216 nuove iscrizioni, 183 cessazioni). Grazie a questa ulteriore crescita, alla data del 31 dicembre 2008 sono 2.614 le aziende novesi iscritte alla Camera di Commercio. Alla fine del 2003 erano 2.455 (159 aziende in più per un incremento del 6,2% in cinque anni). GLI INCONTRI CON LE CATEGORIE SOCIALI ED ECONOMICHE Oltre che dai dati economici, la conferma di una migliore reazione della città rispetto alla crisi economica giunge anche dagli incontri svolti nei giorni scorsi dall'Amministrazione e le varie categorie sociali. Per bocca degli imprenditori e del sistema bancario, la situazione di Novi e del novese appare la migliore nel panorama provinciale. Dalle associazioni economiche e produttive e giunte a parlare per la piccola e media azienda è emerso il focolaio del credito, mentre dai sindacati dei lavoratori è emersa una preoccupazione rispetto alle fasce più deboli della società. Per questo motivo il Sindaco ha proposto un emendamento al Bilancio, approvato all'unanimità dal Consiglio Comunale, che prevede una riduzione dei costi per l'iscrizione agli asili nidi e alla mensa scolastica in favore dei nuclei familiari in cui un componente ha perso il lavoro o è stato posto in cassa integrazione. LA POPOLAZIONE L'analisi demografica evidenzia un ulteriore aumento della popolazione. I dati definitivi, registrati al 31.12.2008, contano 250 abitanti in più rispetto al 2007, per cui oggi Novi raggiunge la quota di 28.581 residenti. Sono 23.331 i residenti urbani, trattasi di un incremento tra i più consistenti degli ultimi anni, segno che continua la positiva attrazione urbana esercitata da Novi e dal territorio circostante: negli ultimi cinque anni la popolazione è aumentata di 841 unità (+ 3,03%). IL COMMERCIO Contrariamente ad altre realtà della zona, il comparto commerciale sta attraversando una fase di sostanziale tenuta e l'aumento dei locali pubblici segue di pari passo la novava. I dati ufficiali della Ufficio Mercato del Comune, gli esercizi commerciali (piccole, medie e grandi strutture) passano dai 582 del 2007 ai 574 del 2008 (- 8 unità), ma i pubblici esercizi aumentano di 5 unità (da 165 a 170). Nell'arco di cinque anni la situazione vede un incremento del 10,6% degli esercizi commerciali (519 alla fine del 2003 + 55 unità) e del 9 % dei pubblici esercizi (156 nel 2003, + 14 unità). BILANCIO DI PREVISIONE 2009 In questo particolare momento di crisi, si è deciso di attuare una serie di interventi mirati con l’obiettivo di ridare fiducia agli operatori economici della città ed a quelli che hanno intenzione di intraprendere nuove iniziative all’interno del territorio comunale. - oneri di urbanizzazione invariati - riduzione del 10% del prezzo per le aree industriali pubbliche non assegnate - bando per incentivare la nascita di nuove aziende sostegno alle aziende le politiche sociali A favore delle famiglie e delle categorie più deboli, è stato messo a punto un pacchetto che contiene numerose agevolazioni fiscali. I benefici nelle tasche dei contribuenti novezi saranno certi ed immediati. - tasse e tributi invariati - riduzione tariffe mensa scolastica - aumento dei contributi agli affitti - ulteriore aiuto per mensa scolastica e asili nido in caso di cassa integrazione o perdita del posto di lavoro Investimenti pubblici Grazie ad una riduzione delle spese di funzionamento del Comune, si sono liberate risorse pubbliche per migliorare la qualità della vita in città ed aiutare la ripresa economica sul territorio. Molti cantieri partiranno già nei prossimi mesi. Stanziati 9 milioni di euro di opere pubbliche Il contributo del Comando di Polizia Municipale e dei Carabinieri, dei volontari dell’Associazione Nazionale Carabinieri e di tutte le altre Forze dell’ordine è stato determinante per intensificare il controllo sul territorio e aumentare la sicurezza in città. Le politiche attuate in questi anni, che saranno intensificate, hanno portato a questi risultati. - assunzione di due nuove vigilesse - potenziamento videosorveglianza - tre nuove ordinanze in applicazione al decreto sicurezza - maggiori controlli sulle abitazioni: solo lo scorso anno 2406 accertamenti, di cui 805 riferiti a cittadini stranieri grazie alle Forze dell’Ordine | INVESTIMENTI | IMPORTO | FONTI DI FINANZIAMENTO | |------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------|---------------------------------| | Sistemazioni stradali | 300.000 | MUTUO | | Manutenzioni stabili | 165.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Parcheggi di attestamento in zona impianto natatorio e via Dacatra | 70.000 | CONTRIBUTO REGIONALE | | Parcheggi di attestamento in zona impianto natatorio e via Dacatra | 280.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Manutenzione straordinaria illuminazione pubblica e nuovi corpi illuminanti | 50.000 | MUTUO | | Manutenzione straordinaria illuminazione pubblica e nuovi corpi illuminanti | 70.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Manutenzione straordinaria cimitero | 85.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Ristrutturazione impianto natatorio | 250.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Spostamento serra comunale | 450.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Climatizzazione biblioteca | 150.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Realizzazione zone 30 | 175.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Adeguamento impianto spegnimento antincendio biblioteca | 35.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Spese di progettazione PTI | 720.000 | CONTRIBUTO REGIONALE | | Spese di progettazione PTI | 80.000 | OOUU | | Automezzi per servizio tecnico | 100.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Lavori Bar Demichelis | 18.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Attrezzature per sistema bibliotecario | 3.500 | CONTRIBUTO REGIONALE | | Arredi ed attrezzature biblioteca | 5.000 | CONTRIBUTO REGIONALE | | Interventi asili nido | 120.000 | CONTRIBUTO DA COMPAGNIA SAN PAOLO| | Interventi asili nido | 30.000 | OOUU | | Arredi ed attrezzature asili nido | 30.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Arredi ed attrezzature biblioteca | 20.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Eliminazione barriere architettoniche – Contributi a privati | 20.000 | CONTRIBUTO REGIONALE | | Restituzione alla Regione contributo aree pip | 240.000 | AREE | | Restituzione oneri urbanizzazione indebiti | 10.000 | OOUU | | Restituzione somme aree PIP | 88.000 | AREE | | Acquisizione aree | 50.000 | AREE | | Restituzione oneri condono | 2.500 | OOUU | | Incarichi professionali per urbanistica | 50.000 | AREE | | Attrezzature ed arredi per urbanistica | 10.000 | AREE | | Opere interventi commercio | 76.000 | CONTRIBUTI DA PRIVATI | | Opere finanziate con compensazioni capacità edificatorie | 1.667.822| COMPENSAZIONI PER CAPACITÀ EDIFICATORIE| | Contributi per edifici di culto | 30.000 | OOUU | | Interventi a scomputo degli oneri di urbanizzazione | 2.000.000| OOUU | | Restituzione alla Regione contributo aree mercatali | 3.314 | OOUU | | Restituzione alla Regione contributo sistemazioni stradali | 121.164 | OOUU | | Interventi aree suburbane (verde) | 46.000 | DEVOLUZIONE MUTUI | | Interventi manutentivi strade | 51.000 | DEVOLUZIONE MUTUI | | Barriere architettoniche | 10.000 | DEVOLUZIONE MUTUI | | Investimenti per gestione calore | 250.000 | OOUU | | Investimenti per gestione calore | 250.000 | AREE | | Informatica | 10.000 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Megaschermi museo | 5.100 | ALIENAZIONI IMMOBILI COMUNALI | | Ruspa per cimitero | 46.000 | CONCESSIONI CIMITERIALI | | Manutenzione cimitero | 440.000 | CONCESSIONI CIMITERIALI | | Attrezzature per canile, videosorv., ecc. | 8.500 | CONTRIBUTI DA PRIVATI | | Attrezzature per canile, videosorv., ecc. | 7.000 | RESIDUI MUTUI | | Contributo ad Aquarium spa | 74.880 | OOUU | | Riacquisto presidi cimiteriali | 10.000 | CONCESSIONI CIMITERIALI | | Abbattimento barriere architettoniche | 50.000 | MUTUO | | Copertura bocciodromo | 120.000 | AREE | **TOTALE** 8.953.780 La parola al Consiglio Comunale In questo spazio autogestito trovano posto le opinioni dei capigruppo consiliari. Pubblichiamo gli interventi che ci sono pervenuti. Aiuti alle famiglie e alle imprese Il bilancio 2009 è caratterizzato da una serie di criticità che se da un lato non sono controllabili dai Comuni, dall’altra ne influenzano pesantemente le azioni e le scelte. Innanzitutto dobbiamo sottolineare le severe operazioni dei fiscali centrali in questi ultimi anni, tese a diminuire sempre più i trasferimenti di risorse ai Comuni, culminate quest’anno in una riduzione dei trasferimenti per circa 400.000 euro, a cui si associa la ancora totale incertezza sulla consistenza e sulle modalità di questi trasferimenti, che dovrebbero sostituire il mancato introito dovuto alla totale abolizione dell’Ici sulla prima casa. Tra gli altri fattori che influenzano il bilancio comunale ce ne sono poi alcuni di ordine locale, in particolare le abbondanti nevicate di quest’inverno con le conseguenti spese per lo sgombero neve e per il ripristino e la manutenzione delle strade cittadine fortemente danneggiate, ed altre di ordine internazionale, in particolare la forte difficoltà economica che caratterizza questo periodo. L’economia comune sta in questo momento reggendo alla situazione di crisi ma sicuramente la situazione economica generale avrà nei prossimi mesi inevitabili ripercussioni anche sul nostro territorio. Il comune ha deciso durante i suoi anni di proprie possibilità e competenze, di investire in tempo tutto i possibili azioni per aiutare la nostra città ed il nostro territorio ad affrontare questo momento, agendo sostanzialmente su due fronti: Da un lato cercando di sostenere le attività produttive e quindi di partecipare riferendosi alla nostra impresa e le piccole aziende attive nel diverso settore produttivo; dall’altro con un impegno al sostegno sociale. Da anni questa Amministrazione, direttamente o attraverso il Consorzio Servizi alla Persona, ha prestato attenzione alle politiche di assistenza sociale e di aiuto alle famiglie in difficoltà ma il bilancio 2009 ancora di più ha caratterizzato l’impegno a questa area, con un partecipativo lavoro alla gestione abitativa, con la creazione di centri per le famiglie in morosità incipiente e, anche grazie ai fondi messi a disposizione da Regione e Provincia, con un aumento delle iniziative a favore dei giovani più deboli. Creiamo però che questi importanti investimenti attuabili nell’immediato, dovranno essere sottoposti a ulteriori ulteriori incentivazione dell’edilizia popolare convenzionata. Molto su questo fronte è stato fatto in questi anni, ma sarà importante individuare ulteriori e nuove soluzioni, avvalendoci dei fondi e dei finanziamenti messi a disposizione da Regione e provincia. Paola Cavana Capogruppo Partito Democratico “Bilancio” finale di un mandato amministrativo Cinque anni di opposizione, dove abbiamo dibattuto sui temi cittadini, inascoltati da una maggioranza di sinistra-cena che è sorda a ogni proposta rivolta a migliorare la nostra Novi. In questi cinque anni, abbiamo visto prendere poche decisioni che passano dalla logica burocratica: per fare un esempio su tutti, la scelta di questa Amministrazione di non difendere il nostro burrone a mare l’Ospedale di Novi. Su questo, come su temi di urbanistica o di bilancio, abbiamo alzato le voce richiamando il Sindaco e la sua Giunta al “buon senso”, contrapponendo ad una visione mope e vecchia della città, idee nuove che pongono il cittadino al primo posto. Cinque anni che ci portano a formulare un giudizio fortemente negativo sull’operato di chi ci amministra che, oggi, deve assumersi, davanti a tutti Voi la responsabilità di indecisione o di incapacità, di ritardi verso una popolazione che viene considerata “a servizio”. Questo perché, quando Giorgio Mazzoni ha deciso di abbandonare la regresione, sbagliando il percorso economico ed urbanistico, rimanendo legati alla vecchia concezione di città post-industriale, perdendo il treno della logistica, proponendo modelli di sviluppo che non tengono conto dei tempi “rapidì” dell’economia, orientando le politiche commerciali più verso la “desertificazione del centro storico” che verso la sua crescita. Hanno pensato e realizzato una raccolta rifiuti che ha dell’indecente; hanno realizzato una cattedrale nel deserto “Il Movimento” privando i cittadini novesi di un pezzo importante della nostra storia: la Piazza della Stazione; non hanno saputo valorizzare il patrimonio comunale, perennemente compromesso in ogni progetto di sviluppo su aree centrali come la Piazza delle Corriere e del Maneggio; non hanno la capacità di mantenere pulita e sicura una città e le sue aree verdi. Non so Voi che noi, nei prossimi cinque anni, vorremmo sentire parlare in Consiglio Comunale di progetti di sostenibilità, di sviluppo commerciale ed industriale, di famiglia, di giovani ed anziani, con la consapevolezza che, per il bene di una comunità, è necessario spogliarsi dell’ideologia e cominciare a pensare in grande. Tutti siamo accomunati dall’essere parte di una collettività per la quale bisogna essere disposti a pensare a questa ora e questo pezzo di “io” in favore di un “noi” capace di passione, forza, capace di investire su chi condivide gli stessi obiettivi. Maria Rosa Porta Consigliere Comunale Giuseppe Ponta Capogruppo Novi Citta Futura Una riforma federale per cambiare il Paese In Consiglio Comunale si è recentemente discussa di federalismo, ma, anche se tutti o quasi si dicono federalisti, non è chiaro quanto sappiano realmente di cosa si tratta. Come si sostiene ormai da circa vent’anni, da quando, cioè, si è iniziato a discutere di riforma dello Stato, si è sempre accanto a questo concetto si associa sempre, quello di un fisco federale o, in altri termini, del federalismo fiscale. La fiscalità è, senza ombra di dubbio, uno degli elementi di maggior importanza quando si sta costruendo un modello nuovo di Stato, non più unitario, ma pluralista, a doppia sussidiarietà e dalla ricchezza di importanza di tutto il mondo delle autonomie locali. La riforma federale, quindi la realizzazione concreta di un vero federalismo, il presupposto imprescindibile per cambiare il Paese; per renderlo più snello, più efficiente e più competitivo. La riforma in senso federale dello Stato rappresenta lo snodo fondamentale da cui, poi, dovrebbero partire tutte le altre riforme, che dovranno mutare l’assetto politico ed istituzionale del Paese. Il federalismo, infatti, distingue il potere tra vari centri, avvicinandone il cittadino alle scelte della politica, rendendolo più responsabile; crea maggiore senso civico, come dimostrato da vari studi, porta maggiore pluralismo ed avanzamento civile. E poi, non dobbiamo dimenticare, è dalla riforma federale che si diramano tutti i settori della vita quotidiana, ovvero tutta la realizzazione delle politiche sociali di cui siamo cittadini: necessità, come la scuola, il lavoro, la salute, la sicurezza, la disoccupazione, la previdenza sociale, il lavoro, ecc. Il fisco, dunque. Nei vari esempi di Stati federali oggi esistenti nel mondo, si rileva la presenza di una capacità impositiva delle entità che compongono la federazione. Questo, in sostanza, è fondamentale affinché ciascun territorio mantenga le proprie peculiarità e dia risposte alle esigenze che giungono dalla propria cittadinanza. Vi è, quindi, un nesso imprescindibile tra le funzioni attribuite a ciascun ente e le risorse necessarie per il loro integrale esercizio. In questo contesto, quello che la Lega Nord intende far passare come principio-guida (essendo la sostanza stessa del federalismo) è che le risorse necessarie sul territorio dove sono prodotto, vanno ovviamente a quella parte da destinare al Governo centrale per le questioni generali e per la solidarietà interregionale. È questo il principio cardine su cui sono costruiti tutti i sistemi di federalismo fiscale presenti nel mondo. È questa l’essenza del federalismo. Sul federalismo fiscale, ormai, si è molto discusso. E in esso si eva di un problema fra molti e con-contrari: se “chi”, come il nostro Movimento, ritiene che l’intero Paese sia strada giusta per far ripartire il Paese (dal punto di vista della competitività economica) e per dare, finalmente, quello sviluppo economico e sociale atteso dal Mezzogiorno. Infatti, bisogna che si faccia in modo che gli ostacoli alla rivenire di un effettivo sistema di federalismo fiscale, visto che lo stesso “modus operandi” viene considerato come un “abbaglio” o, per essere più precisi, una minaccia per l’unità nazionale. È proprio come scritto, in un passaggio, nella relazione introduttiva all’articolo del Disegno di Legge (A.10) che “il tema del federalismo fiscale è stato trattato in modo strumentale, prospettando l’esito della riforma con l’ausilio della “commissione fiscale”, la “frattura del Paese”. Come è evidente, niente di tutto questo averrà una volta realizzato il federalismo fiscale che rappresenterà, anche e soprattutto per il Mezzogiorno, il momento di riscatto economico e sociale da tanto tempo (troppo, ormai) sperato. Per la Lega Nord federalismo fiscale è sinonimo di responsabilizzazione nella spesa pubblica, di aumento dell’efficienza nei servizi resi, di maggior trasparenza e vicinanza tra i cittadini e gli amministratori della cosa pubblica. A nostro modo di vedere, significa che le risorse debbano restare nel territorio che le ha prodotte; significa che le decisioni debbano essere introdotte ulteriormente, invece e non retrodati; significa che verranno premiati gli enti virtuosi; significa il rispetto della norma costituzionale in base alla quale è riconosciuta pari dignità a Comuni, Province, Città metropolitane e Regioni; significa che la perequazione non potrà esaurirsi in un sistema premiante per gli enti che, storicamente, hanno male impiegato le risorse e hanno letteralmente sprecaio soldi pubblici (cioè, hanno sprecaio i soldi dei cittadini). Alessandro Gemme Capogruppo Lega Nord Attuate politiche sociali e per lo sviluppo della città Chi l’avrebbe mai detto che oltre al fenomeno del precariato del lavoro allo stato attuale si possa parlare di precarietà dei bilanci comunali? Purtroppo ci tocca prendere atto di ciò di fronte al venir meno di un’altra garanzia fondamentale per la corretta gestione delle casse comunali. Quella certezza che, fino a qualche anno fa, dava l’opportunità ai comuni di formulare previsioni sulla base di gettiti realistici. Ma non è tutto circolare – dovute anche all’abolizione dell’ICI sulla prima casa - che come afferma il Sindaco nella sua relazione – è un aspetto considerato positivo dai cittadini ma si rivela negativa dal punto di vista del benessere delle finanze locali: si rende più maggiore difficoltà nel formulare un bilancio di previsione che in un periodo in cui le condizioni di mercato sono di incertezza che non solo deriva da questa decisione, ma che è stata aggravata dall’imprevedibilità degli eventi atmosferici che si sono abbattuti in tutta la provincia di Alessandria in questo inverno facendo registrare numerose e abbondanti nevicate che si è dovuto precedere con un’attività di manutenzione straordinaria, o comunque misurare la situazione nella nostra città. Sappiamo però ricordare che per formulare le previsioni per il prossimo bilancio si deve pur sempre tenere conto del Patto di stabilità interno che impone vincoli e parametri entro cui deve rientrare il gioco di entrata e di uscita di denaro consta il bilancio comunale. Premesse queste generali distolte con cui siamo oggi costretti vivere, riconosciamo che l’Amministrazione comunale si impegna a mantenere invariata l’imposizione fiscale pur garantendo tutte quelle politiche di gestione per cui il nostro partito si è sempre battuto: politiche che in quanto tali rispecchiano tutti quei valori e proposti in cui la sinistra si riconosce. Quindi accogliamo con favore il progetto di legge di bilancio 2009 e il programma di attuare tramite il Consorzio Servizi alla Persona, sostenendo con un ulteriore aumento di sforzi i cittadini meno abbienti, i pensionati, i precari e le famiglie più colpite da disagi economici e sociali legati anche a problematiche come sfratti esecutivi, pagamenti di forniture emergenziali, ecc. e sostenendo l’efficace convenzione attuata attraverso l’affidamento di nuovi allestimenti nelle famiglie attivamente in fase d’attesa. Condividiamo le riflessioni del Sindaco quando all’interno della sua relazione sostiene che per il momento Novi non risente di grossi problemi derivanti dalla crisi mondiale che si sta ripercuotendo su più fronti su scala nazionale ed internazionale e ci auguriamo che il possibile disastro che potrebbe sussistere sia quello che quotidianamente si registra in città - come l’aumento delle attività produttive - sia anche risultato di scelte fatte con intelligenza e lungimiranza nel praticare politiche per agevolare la crescita e l’insinuarsi di nuove realtà produttive e commerciali, che oggi attutiscono gli effetti di rischio che si temono. Qualche stelle attuata una serie di sviluppi che sicuramente fa sì che Novi Ligure possa essere tra le città dove si dovrebbe sussistere si possa ancora agevolare una spinta verso la crescita di insediamenti industriali e commerciali oltre che una crescita economica che possa essere legata anche alla creazione di nuovi settori strutturali. Non si diluisce tra gli altri elementi che poi i Comuni italiani condividiamo e a cui chiamiamo che siano realizzati, ma vorrei ultimare il mio intervento esprimendo il nostro parere positivo anche per quanto riguarda i lavori di manutenzione delle strade, il potenziamento dell’illuminazione di alcune zone della città e la riparazione di alcuni guasti da tempo segnalati. Concludo quindi esprimendo tutto il mio apprezzamento nei confronti delle relazioni del sindaco e dell’Assessore Marullo con l’augurio di poter continuare a gestire con efficacia e competenza il Bilancio di Previsione 2009. Gabriele Del Sorbo Capogruppo Partito dei Comunisti Italiani Un Bilancio che guarda al sociale A soli tre mesi dal voto politico-amministrativo del 6 e 7 giugno prossimi, ci troviamo in una fase storica, economica ed occupazionale tra le più incerte e delicate, anche sul piano della tenuta democratica, antifascista, sindacale, a causa del “Patto di Stabilità” firmato con Berlusconi. Nella nostra città in questi giorni il Consiglio Comunale ha approvato la manovra di Bilancio 2009. Si tratta di una finanziaria locale importante, oggetto di intense e complesse discussioni. Il futuro sviluppo cittadino da conseguire nella prossima legislatura, che mi auguro resti governata dalla sinistra con Rifondazione Comunista protagonista della coalizione nell’interesse di lavoratori, disoccupati e giovani anziani. Ci è forse preoccupante tra i Comuni italiani per le recenti decisioni del Governo Berlusconi che, oltre a intaccare fortemente lo stato sociale e le conquiste organiche e civili delle lotte dei lavoratori, penalizza fortemente gli Enti Locali con l’abolizione dell’ICI nella prima casa (che era l’unica entrata finanziaria certa per i Comuni) e con l’abbassamento dei tassi di interesse dei mutui immobiliari. Questi fatti di incertezza mettono in seria difficoltà la programmazione dei Comuni, tra cui Novi Ligure. Voglio ricordare che, oltre al taglio dell’ICI, sono aggiunti per il nostro Comune 400 mila euro di tagli al trasferimento statali a cui si è dovuto far fronte con la manovra di assestamento. A questi aspetti vanno aggiunti anche i costi imprevisti delle ultime abbondanti nevicate (danni a strutture, sgombero neve, spargimento sale, sistemazione dei tratti di marciapiede che hanno portato l’amministrazione a stanziare urgentemente 300 mila euro in Crediti). In risposta ci va a rafforzare l’impegno finanziario della Regione Piemonte per gli interventi straordinari dovuti allo stato di calamità naturale. Così pure occorreranno interventi finanziari della Provincia, anche se più limitati. Visto il difficile scenario in cui si trova l’Amministrazione, si caratterizza il Bilancio di Previsione, soprattutto per quanto riguarda gli interventi a favore delle famiglie più bisognose, dei ciascattegianti, degli anziani. E’ positivo anche aver mantenuto inalterate le tariffe comunali per la mensa scolastica, la tassa abituri, e gli interventi a fondo perduto per il pagamento di alcune case popolari. Ma non si può non osservare che gli interventi per far fronte alla drammatica sofferenza sociale che quotidianamente i cittadini novesi presentano presso l’Assessorato agli Affari Sociali, che in questi anni ha visto ben due ripetitive amministrazioni pur con le critiche difese dalla stessa corsa al voto. Certamente sono tematiche sociali difficili che il Comune da solo non è in grado di risolvere. Infine, credo poco alle soluzioni politico-istituzionali sul federalismo fiscale, tanto sbandierato dalla destra, che potrebbe potenziare ancora aggravare la già pesante situazione finanziaria di molti Comuni, a partire proprio quelli territoriali. Siamo ormai a fine legislatura e come gruppo del PCI abbiamo votato a favore di questa finanziaria per le cose dette prima, ma soprattutto per l’aspetto sociale che ritenevamo debba essere l’elemento prioritario di differenza strategica della politica della sinistra rispetto al neo capitalismo e allo sfruttamento dei lavoratori portato avanti dalle destra. Francesco Moro Capogruppo Rifondazione Comunista L’addio a Giancarlo Scotti Il 18 febbraio scorso ci ha lasciati Giancarlo Scotti, storica figura del socialismo novese, tra i principali esponenti della politica cittadina negli ultimi trent’anni. Durante la seduta consiliare del 23 febbraio, il Sindaco Lorenzo Ambrosini e il Consigliere Giuseppe Ponte non hanno ricordato l’impegno in campo sociale e amministrativo attraverso paralfeettuose e caricature di cronaca. Scotti è stato sindaco dall’aprile 73 dal 1981 al 1986 e Consigliere comunale dal 1981 al 1990. A Novi ricoprì anche la carica di Assessore comunale dal 1992 al 1995. Successivamente il suo ingresso si spostò verso la Provincia di Alessandria, dove ricoprì il ruolo di Consigliere dal 1995 al 2000 e di Assessore dal 1999 al 2001. Presidente di ALEKALIA dal 2001 al 2004, attualmente faceva parte del Consiglio di Amministrazione della agenzia di promozione territoriale alessandrina. L’intero Consiglio Comunale si è unito alle condoglianze formulate dalla famiglia osservando un minuto di silenzio. Robbiano e la Città che non c’è Il bilancio di previsione per il 2009 è stato il tema che ha impegnato il Consiglio Comunale nelle ultime sedute. Su tale argomento, che giungerà a pochi mesi dalle prossime elezioni amministrative costituisce elemento di valutazione sull’operato quinquennale dell’amministrazione guidata dal gruppo di Forza Italia – Pdl, ha tenuto un atteggiamento estremamente critico che ci ha portato ad esprimere parere negativo. In particolare, il voto finale non solo le relazioni dell’assessore competente e del sindaco non hanno convinto, ma l’accurata disamina delle cifre ci ha lasciato fortemente perplessi. L’amministrazione Robbiano dipinge un quadro di Città che non c’è, un quadro negativo che si conferma dopo una visita da Cittadini novesi. Le scelte fatte in questi cinque anni dalla coalizione di sinistra hanno rallentato il potenziale sviluppo socio economico di Novi (gravolandola di pesanti debiti pubblici), vittime furono e ripercuoteronoinesorabilmente sulle tasche dei contribuenti. Paradigmatici sono i casi della raccolta - gestione dei rifiuti e la realizzazione del movicentro. La raccolta differenziata dei rifiuti, diventata ormai un sorgente essenziale per la gestione Robbiano, è presa in pasticci che richiedono circa mezzo milione di euro e impegnano oltre il 20% delle entrate totali del comune. A Robbiano si è tal oramai servito il servizio offerto, nonostante la diligente collaborazione dei Cittadini, presenta gravissime lacune che sono sotto gli occhi di tutti. A ciò si aggiungono il fallimento delle politiche regionali e provinciali circa lo smaltimento dei rifiuti, che ha portato al sesto ampliamento della discarica cittadina. La realizzazione del movicentro, nonostante la nostra ferma opposizione, non solo ha provocato to una sorta di sfregio all’architettura cittadina e alla memoria storica di Novi cancellando brutalmente una piazza cara ai novesi che in cambio hanno ricevuto uno spazio privo di pregi architettonici che non esistono a definire un “vuoto urbanistico”, ma che graverà e graverà sui contribuenti per la realizzazione di un progetto che, ad oltre sei mesi dalla sua apertura, non risucita alcun successo tra gli automobilisti a causa delle elevate tariffe orarie. L’alto numero di parcheggi utilizzati del movicentro, spesso oltre le 150 unità, richiede un grande spazio dedicato o in alternativa ne sarebbe ne sarà un’incredibile distorsione. Meglio sarebbe stato effettuato un ripristino della antica piazza, effettuando adeguati lavori di restauro e manutenzione (a proposito dei lavori hanno fatto da modello i Coppi e Giro d’Italia, i tradizionali balli della storica collocazione di via da chi si fregia di amministrare la Città dei Campionissimi?) che avrebbero avuto costo infinitesimali rispetto alla cifra spesa, destinando invece le risorse risparmiate a sostegno di una esecuzione più efficiente e meno costosa, spesso con le avvisaglie di una congiuntura sfavorevole per l’occupazione e lo sviluppo erano già più che palpabili. Oltre a questi due lamenti casi ci corre obbligo segnalarne, semmai ce ne fosse bisogno, che la Città non è più veramente sede urbana, l’illuminazione pubblica, e le aree verdi. Al troppo breve sottolineare come sole grazie al nostro intervento sotto forma di emendamento al bilancio siano stati stanziati in extremis 100 mila euro per la manutenzione straordinaria dei giardini di Villa Staffa, e per l’asilo Garibaldi che versa no in pessime condizioni di manutenzione. Saranno proprio i temi dello sviluppo socio economico di Novi, di un piccolo occultato dei denari pubblici con conseguente diminuzione dei fondi disponibili, di un radicale abbattimento dei costi della politica a sostegno delle fasce sociali più deboli, di un miglioramento della sicurezza attiva dei Cittadini, di una maggiore attenzione alle politiche giovanili e culturali che porremo all’attenzione della Città nelle prossime settimane, strutturando gli ultimi mesi di questa consultativa, consapevoli di rappresentare le istanze non soddisfatte dei novesi.

La formula è la stessa delle edizioni precedenti: proiezioni ogni martedì sera (ore 21,15) nella sala mega schermo con biglietto di ingresso a 4 euro; nei saloni lettori del Museo saranno divulgati volumi che trattano di cinema e musica: il libro Joker di via Garibaldi 91. Inoltre, c’è anche la possibilità di una cena a tema presso il ristorante Emmalù, a partire dalle 19,30; il menu comprende un piatto unico, dolce, acqua e caffè, il tutto a 10 euro. Il programma, curato da Roberto Dellacasa in collaborazione con il “Cinecircolo la Grande Illusione”, è iniziato il 10 marzo con “Shirley” (1996) di Scott Hicks, biografia della pianista David Helfgott. Il 17 MARZO è la volta di “Mai più come prima” (2005) di Giacomo Campiotti, film sul mondo giovanile con colonna sonora di Corrado Carosio e Pierangelo Fornaro (nati ad Alessandria e vincitori del 1° Concorso Internazionale di composizione Festival Lavagnino nel 2003), alla cui realizzazione ha partecipato l’Orchestra Classica di Alessandria. Il 24 MARZO segue “Les parapluies de Cherbourg” (1964) di Jacques Demy, deliziosa storia interamente cantata sulle musiche di Michel Legrand. Spazio all’thriller il 31 MARZO con “A history of violence” (1993), per il regista David Cronenberg e sequel di “Homicide Show”. Si prosegue il 7 APRILE con “Sud” (1993), storia di disoccupazione e imbrogli di Gabriele Salvatore accompagnata dal rap degli Assalti Frontali e dei 99 Posse, ed il 14 APRILE con “Il colosso di Rodi” (1961), primo successo di Sergio Leone musicato da A. F. Lavagnino. “Quattro minuti” (2006) di Chris Kraus, film carcerario che mette in luce le vicende del nuovo cinema tedesco, sarà proiettato il 21 APRILE, mentre il 28 APRILE è in programma “Giochi proibiti” (1951) di René Clément, storia di due bambini che ripetono nei loro giochi gli orrori che vedono quotidianamente; in questo caso il motivo musicale, composto da Narciso Yepes, probabilmente è ancora più popolare del film stesso. Il 5 MAGGIO si continua con “Il futuro non è scritto” (2007) di Julien Temple, film che ripercorre la vita di Joe Strummer (morto nel 2002), era il leader del complesso punk britannico “The Clash”, attraverso filmati d’epoca e ricordi di amici, parenti e colleghi. Le proiezioni continuano il 12 MAGGIO con “American Graffiti” (1973) di George Lucas, film di culto generazionale con una colonna sonora che richiama gli anni cinquanta e l’inizio dei sessanta. Il 19 MAGGIO è la volta di “The Commitments” (1991) di Alan Parker, storia di una band nella Dublino degli anni sessanta. Il ciclo si chiude il 26 MAGGIO con “Velluto blu” (1986) torbido e affascinante film di David Lynch, il cui titolo è ispirato alla canzone “Blue Velvet” di Bobbie Gentry usata come leitmotiv dell’intero film. Infine – la data è ancora da definire – è prevista la proiezione di “Bravissimo” (1955) di L.F. D’Amico con musiche di A.F. Lavagnino; alla serata parteciperanno anche le sorelle Lavagnino. Grazie ad Arturo Pedrolli A nome della città, il Sindaco Lorenzo Robbiani ha consegnato una targa ricordo ad Arturo Pedrolli (nella foto), storico capogruppo degli Alpini novesi che recentemente ha lasciato il suo incarico dopo oltre 20 anni di attività. Il Sindaco ha ringraziato Pedrolli per la passione dimostrata in questi anni nel campo della solidarietà e del sociale dall’associazione da lui guidata. Alla cerimonia, oltre alla Giunta Comunale e al Presidente del Consiglio Comunale Roberto Rossi, era presente una folta delegazione di Alpini novesi che hanno salutato con affetto e profonda stima l’ex capogruppo.

Il 32 settembre scorso. La notizia ha provocato grande commozione anche a Novi, città che Cannavò conosceva bene per la grande tradizione che la lega alla storia del ciclismo. Nel 2007 visitò il Museo dei Campionissimi. Il Sindaco gli consegnò la targa di “Amico del Museo”, come segno di rimpiantamento per tutto quello che l’illustre giornalista fece per Novi Ligure, per il ciclismo e per lo sport in generale. Un esempio del grande amore di Cannavò per le terre di Fausto Coppi e Costante Girardengo, che nel testo che lo stesso scriveva per il catalogo del Museo, qui riportato integralmente: “Ogni volta che salgo su quest’Appennino dove l’alta Liguria va in sposa con il Piemonte, nella mia mente si realizza un’altra scalata, quella dei ricordi. Qui nacque e visse Costante Girardengo, qui un giovane dotto dal talento sportivo, che gli occhi tristi e dalle gambe infisse di fatica scopri di essere Fausto Coppi, il più grande campione del nostro secolo. Ne fu incantato da ragazzo, volendo fantasticamente con lui sulle Alpi italiane e francesi, e poi partecipò da giornalista al mesto destino del suo famoso amico. Un lutto squarciante, al di là dell’enigma che lo genera. Adesso scopro con gioia che tutto questo patrimonio di sport e di sentimenti si sta conservando, che c’è un’iniziativa che si erge sopra di tutte, a livello europeo, quella di un Museo dei Campionissimi. E vero che in Italia sono privilegiate le cattive notizie: sono tante, purtroppo e di una varietà senza paragone. Ma qui avrei voglia di gridare al mondo quanto valore ha questa impresa di Novi Ligure, quant’alta cultura contiene, quanto solidarietà la sorregge. E trovo bellissimo che i nomi dei nostri campioni siano in loro sacralità e con il loro fascino senza confini, abbiano abbracciato ogni misera barriera del campionato continentale. Questo Museo, che nasce appartenente all’Italia, anzi all’Europa, è un prezioso culturale di valore assoluto, dedicato all’eterna gioia e bisogno umano, aperto alla nostalgia degli anziani e alla fantasia dei giovani. Se ancora non fosse chiaro il mio sentimento, da vecchio amante e testimone dello sport parte un grande, interminabile applauso.” NOVI LIGURE 20-21 e 22 marzo Centro Fieristico - Viale dei Campionissimi info: www.mastroartigiano.it Mostra Mercato Eccellenza Artigiana in Piemonte Edizione 2009 Ceramica Gioielleria Legno Ferro battuto Stampa Tessile e sartoria Vetro Strumenti musicali Restauro edile e ligneo Gelateria Pasticceria Distillati Altre attività artistiche PROGRAMMA Venerdì 20 marzo ore 17 - Inaugurazione ore 21 - Museo del Campionissimi - "Aspettando la Milano-S.Remo" ore 23 - Chiusura Sabato 21 marzo ore 10 - Apertura ore 10 - Dimostrazione di arte fabbrile ore 11/12 - Passaggio Milano-S.Remo ore 12 - Aperitivo "Mastro Artigiano incontra la Milano-S.Remo" ore 16 - Dimostrazione di arte fabbrile ore 21 - "Gala dell'Artigianato" con la consegna del premio Lino Persano ore 23 - Chiusura Domenica 22 marzo ore 15 - Apertura ore 17 - Degustazione di gelato artigianale, cioccolato artigianale e barolo chinato ore 20 - Chiusura OSPITI: Coltellini da tutta Italia, Museo della Calzatura di Vigevano e Museo del Ferro di Alessandria Presso il Centro Fieristico, servizio ristoro con pizza (forno a legna) INGRESSO LIBERO ORARI: venerdì: 17-23; sabato: 10-23; domenica: 15-20

The IHO Capacity Building (CB) Sub-Committee (CBSC19) held its 19th meeting via remote Video Tele-Conference (VTC), on 9 and 10 June 2021. The meeting was chaired by Mr Evert Flier (Norway) and attended by 35 participants representing 14 of the 15 Regional Hydrographic Commissions (RHCs) and 15 Member States. The IHO Secretariat was represented by Director Luigi Sinapi, Assistant Director Leonel Manteigas (CBSC Secretary), Ms Sandrine Brunel (CB Assistant) and Mr Insung Park (Project Officer). The Chair opened the meeting welcoming the participants and regretting not having a face-to-face meeting still. Captain Marco Grassi from Italy, a new Member of the CBSC, was introduced. IHO Director Luigi Sinapi welcomed the participants and mentioned that in spite of the pandemic situation, the activity of the Capacity Building Sub Committee had been intense, noting the Intersessional Meeting, the preparation of the 2022CBWP (CB Work Program), the work of the Project Teams and the approval of the Empowering Women in Hydrography project. He also congratulated the Regional Coordinators for the management of the CB programmes. IHO Director Sinapi reported on the new 94th IHO Member State, Lebanon, as well as the theme of World Hydrography Day (WHD) 2020 “One hundred years of international cooperation in hydrography” with the goal of highlighting the past, present, and future of hydrography by showing the important work of our former hydrographers and the progress in state-of-the-art technology. The activities of the IHO Centenary celebrations were summarized, and the new website of the International Hydrographic Review was announced. The reports received from the Regional Hydrographic Commissions (RHCs), the CB Coordinators expressed the impact of the Covid pandemic on the CB Activities with the need to postpone some activities, develop others and revert to remote technologies. The IHO e-learning Center as well as the online training courses provided by the UKHO were considered important developments and much appreciated. The Interregional collaboration with the possibility of having participants from other Regions attending the remote activities, sharing the resources and allowing a wider number of participants, is the key to managing the limited resources efficiently. In order to promote the relevant remote activities of the regions (seminars, workshops and courses), it was decided to create a CB Calendar where those events could be advertised. Spain made a presentation on their hydrographic courses that could accept international students, granting scholarships to some. They also mentioned the possibility to collaborate in seminars, courses and workshops, in Spanish, with highly qualified educators. The CB Project Team Strategy reported on the Draft Capacity Building Strategy, currently available on the CBSC19 webpage. A gap analysis was conducted to monitor where the CBSC Strategy was at and where it was going, by considering the IHO Strategic Plan. The draft aligned CB Strategy comprises update phases of development (to potentially include a phase 0 on hydrographic governance) and a 5th step to the process of the CB Strategy (Awareness; Assessment; Analysis & Action) to address Measures of Effectiveness (MoE). It was also considered necessary to develop an allocation of the CB resources strategy that should have a balance in accordance with the level of resources available. The need to receive contributions from the participants was expressed and the work will continue by correspondence. The CB E-learning Project Team reported on the development of the Terms of Reference, Rules of Procedure and the Implementation Plan. Some MS and organizations already shared contents and experiences such as: MSDIWG, IC-ENC, SANHO, KHOA, SHOM and UNESCO. Some of the Planned Activities for 2021 were mentioned, such as the draft of the Center Guidelines and the creation of the Center website. In 2022, it is planned to finalize the framework and test the website with the MS. The system’s architecture was described, indicating the different kinds of IHO e-learning Courses expected to have, as well as the respective requirements and characteristics. The established Performance Indicators and Statistics graphics, the availability of the CB funds, the submitted requests and delivered projects, the Technical Visits, the CB activities and the number of students all indicated that 2020 was not a typical year and very much affected by the Covid pandemic. It was decided to have a session at the next Intersessional Meeting to discuss the revision of the SPIs and statistics that should be reported, having in consideration the future CB Strategy and the developments of the CBSC PT Strategy. During the presentation of the CB finance report, it was concluded that in 2021 it is expected that the expenditures should be lower and that the available funds and most of the projects will probably be moved to 2022. In 2022 the funds for the non-earmarked projects are expected to be lower than in the past years, but with the moved projects from 2021 there will be a significant number of projects to execute. The situation could be more difficult in 2023 with the expected reduction of the non-earmarked funds, so it was recognized that it will be very important to share resources and projects and invest in the remote activities. The meeting discussed the 2022 CBMP (CB Management Plan). Having in consideration the projects with the same score and the funding available, the projects to be funded were selected and the 2022CBWP was approved by the Meeting. It was decided to have an Intersessional Meeting in February 2022 (TBC), while the next CBSC20 will be held in May / June 2022 in Indonesia, having Monaco as backup. The following meetings will be held in Japan (CBSC21: May / June 2023) and in Ecuador (CBSC22: May / June 2024, venue TBD).

Thanks also to Peggy, Laura and Karen for their patience and support, with special thanks to Connie and Janet for keeping me on track at so many critical junctures. ABSTRACT This aim of this study was to assess patients’ expected therapeutic alliance and symptomatology before beginning psychotherapy, and comparing these baseline assessments with measures of alliance and symptomatology obtained on a continuous basis across a minimum of 10 weeks of therapy. Assessments of alliance and symptomatology, were made every half-week for a range of seven to fourteen times during the baseline period and a range of twenty-two to forty-four times during the treatment phase. Seven female patients and one male patient participated in the study. Three questions were the focus of this study: (1) Does the introduction of therapy have an impact on the initial formation of alliance? (2) Does the alliance change over time or does it stabilize? (3) Is there a time-contingent relationship or a simultaneous relationship between alliance and outcome, and if it is time-contingent, does alliance predict outcome or does outcome predict alliance? The results indicated that for a majority of subjects the introduction of therapy reduced totals on the Confident Collaboration scale, the Confident Collaboration 2 scale, and the Goal and Task Agreement scale. There was no significant impact on the Bond scale, the Patient Dedication scale, and the Idealized Relationship scale. The results also supported the hypothesis that therapeutic alliance remained stable over time. Small effect sizes (ranging from absolute values of .109 to .157) indicated one instance of alliance predicting symptomatology, three instances of a simultaneous relationship between symptomatology and alliance, and five instances of symptomatology predicting alliance. # TABLE OF CONTENTS | CHAPTER | PAGE | |---------|------| | I. | | | INTRODUCTION | 1 | | The Concept of Alliance in Therapy | 1 | | Empirical Research on Therapeutic Alliance | 3 | | Limitations of Current Research on Therapeutic Alliance | 8 | | Time Series Designs in the Study of Therapeutic Alliance | 14 | | Other Time Series Methodologies for Autocorrelated Data Streams | 20 | | Cross-Correlational Methodologies and the Study of Therapeutic Alliance | 23 | | Objectives and Hypotheses of the Current Study | 27 | | II. | 34 | | METHOD | 34 | | Design | 34 | | Subjects | 34 | | Subject 1: Ailish | 36 | | Subject 2: Brianna | 37 | | Subject 3: Ciara | 38 | | Subject 4: Deirdre | 39 | | Subject 5: Elaine | 40 | | Subject 6: Fiona | 41 | | Subject 7: Gerald | 42 | | Subject 8: Hilda | 43 | | Measures | 44 | |----------|----| | The Beck Depression Inventory – II | 44 | | The Beck Anxiety Inventory | 45 | | The Outcome Questionnaire | 47 | | The Combined Alliance Short Form – Patient Version 3 | 48 | | Procedure | 50 | | Data Analysis | 53 | III.

Although Freud initially conceived of this process as the result of positive transference, he later contrasted the difference between transferential aspects and the positive, reality-based aspects of the client’s attachment to the therapist. These positive components of the therapeutic relationship allowed the client and therapist “basing themselves on the external world… to band themselves together… This pact constitutes the analytic situation” (Freud, 1940, p.173). Sterba (1934) further developed this idea by introducing the term *ego alliance* to describe the process by which the healthy, reality-based aspect of the client’s self collaborated with the therapist to overcome the client’s neurosis. Subsequently, Zetzel (1956) wrote of the difference between transference and alliance and she conceived of the alliance as the non-neurotic aspect of the therapeutic relationship that enabled the client to distinguish between transference and reality in relation to the therapist. She coined the term therapeutic alliance and she suggested that successful therapy is marked by varying periods when either transference or the alliance dominates the relationship. Greenson (1965) in a landmark paper on alliance and transference neurosis, introduced the term working alliance to describe this reality-based collaboration and proposed that it was one of three components of the therapeutic relationship, the other two being the transference relationship and the real relationship. Psychodynamic theorists writing on alliance from an object relations perspective (e.g., Gitleson, 1962; Horwitz, 1974; Bowlby, 1988) stressed how the client is capable of forming a positive, need-gratifying relationship with the therapist that is grounded in reality. Other psychodynamic theorists maintain that alliance is not merely affected by transference, but that all aspects of the therapeutic relationship are manifestations of transference neurosis (Gelso & Carter, 1985). Gelso & Carter (1985) contend that the alliance is an unreal relationship founded on displaced emotions and thoughts originating from an earlier conflictual relationship. Similarly, Hatcher (1990) conceptualized the alliance as an alternative perspective on positive transference, with inherent intra-personal and inter-personal components, in contrast to Greenson (1965) who saw alliance as a separate and distinct process. In an attempt to reconcile psycho-dynamic perspectives on the alliance, Horvath, Gaston & Luborsky (1993) stated that a definition of the alliance “needs to take account of the influence of prior experiences (that is, positive and negative transference) and, at the same time, to delineate the alliance as a distinct aspect of the relationship” (p.250). In an attempt to provide such a comprehensive definition, Frieswyk et al. (1986) adapted Greenson’s concept of alliance and they stressed the “patient’s collaboration with the therapist in the task of observing and evaluating the patient’s experience” (p. 33) as the central focus of alliance. However, they acknowledged that “the patient’s capacity to collaborate is affected by the state of the transference” (p. 33) and they argued that therapist activity should not be considered a component of the therapeutic alliance. **Empirical Research on Therapeutic Alliance** Impetus for empirical study of necessary components of the therapeutic relationship also came from the work of Carl Rogers. Rogers (1951) in his book *Client-Centered Therapy* put forward the view that the therapist’s communication of empathy, congruence and unconditional acceptance were necessary and sufficient features of successful therapy. As Horvath (2000) noted in his recent paper on the therapeutic relationship, Rogers’ theory was unique in that it posited these factors to be responsible for change in all therapeutic endeavors and it stressed that it was the therapist who was responsible for the provision of these conditions. More importantly, though, Rogers also subjected his claims to empirical investigation, thus paving the way for future research into the process of therapy. Surprisingly, reviews of the empirical work done on Rogers’ theory, such as Mitchell, Bozart & Kraft (1977), indicate that although a good therapeutic relationship correlates with successful outcome, it is actually the client’s perception of the therapist’s attitudes that is related to outcome rather than ratings of empathy, congruence or unconditional regard as observed by independent raters. In a similar vein, LaCrosse (1980) found that the therapist’s influence is proportional to the degree to which the client perceives the therapist as expert, attractive and trustworthy (although Horvath (1981) found this to be a modest and inconsistent effect across modalities). Thus it became evident that future research on the alliance would have to account for the client’s perception of the therapeutic relationship. A flurry of research on therapy and outcome answered Hans Eysenck’s (1952) claim that the outcome associated with psychodynamic therapy was no greater than that associated with either routine medical care or no treatment at all. Increasingly rigorous outcome research soon provided evidence that therapy could account for more change than spontaneous remission alone (e.g., Smith, Glass & Miller, 1980). However, it simultaneously called into question the specificity of various techniques as the evidence failed to show that any one approach to therapy was superior to another (see Luborsky et al., 1975; Garfield & Bergin, 1986; Lambert, 1991). This provoked a move among researchers to begin developing a pan-theoretical understanding of the aspects of therapy that might be responsible for change. Edward Bordin offered such a pan-theoretical conceptualization of the therapeutic alliance in his presidential address to the 1975 Annual Conference of the Society for Psychotherapy Research (Bordin, 1975 - as cited in Horvath, 2000). Bordin described the alliance as a predominantly conscious “here-and-now” relationship, although he noted that in the early phases of therapy it could be influenced by past relations and unresolved attachments. He agreed with Rogers’ (1951) claim that the alliance was a factor in all therapeutic relationships but in contrast to Rogers, Bordin conceptualized the alliance as a bi-directional process that involved collaboration between the therapist and client. He saw the alliance between the client and therapist as composed of three elements: bonds (interpersonal attachments, trust, liking); tasks (agreement on what needs to be done in therapy and how the activities in therapy will contribute to a successful outcome); and goals (consensus on outcome expectations). As Horvath (2000) describes, Bordin conceived the alliance as “both a facilitative condition that provided the ambiance to implement a variety of therapeutic tasks effectively and a beneficial therapeutic agent in its own right” (p. 167). As a result of Bordin’s presentation, there was a resurge of interest in research on the topic of therapeutic alliance. By 1991, Horvath and Symonds were able to publish a meta-analytic review of research on alliance and its relation to therapeutic outcome. Horvath & Symonds analyzed the results of twenty studies that assessed working alliance and outcome, and using the product-moment correlation coefficient $r$ as an index of effect size (ES), they found that the overall weighted ES was 0.26 ($p<0.001$). Individual ES values for each study ranged from –0.04 to 0.64 suggesting that the “heterogeneity of ESs may be the result of differences in alliance measurement methods, differences in alliance-outcome relations across outcome variables, treatment differences among the studies, variations in the client factors, or a combination of these or other factors” (p.143). Results from the Horvath and Symonds (1991) meta-analysis also indicated that neither the number of sessions nor the type of treatment received (psychodynamic, eclectic/mixed, or cognitive therapies) appeared to have a reliable influence on the relationship between alliance and outcome. Martin, Garske and Davis (2000) completed a more recent meta-analytic review of the relation of therapeutic alliance with outcome, citing the number of new studies since Horvath & Symond’s (1991) review as justification for an updated review. Fifty-eight published studies and 21 unpublished studies were used in their more recent review. The authors calculated the overall weighted alliance-outcome correlation to be 0.22. An exploratory analysis of possible moderator variables affecting the alliance-outcome correlation suggested that the “type of outcome measure, type of alliance rater (patient, therapist, or observer), type of outcome rater (patient, therapist, or observer), time of alliance rating (early, middle, late, or averaged across sessions), methodological quality or type of psychotherapy failed to account for additional variance” (p. 445). The authors concluded that the “overall alliance-outcome correlation represents a single population of effects that cannot be reduced by a moderator variable into a more explanatory model” and that their study was “supportive of the hypothesis that the alliance may be therapeutic in and of itself” (p. 446). However, although it was clear from their results that strength of alliance was predictive of outcome, they acknowledged that alternative explanations for the relationship were possible. Hatcher and Barends (1996) describe their research looking at what specific factors of alliance were related to patients’ perception of improvement. The authors found that two factors, Confident Collaboration and Idealized Relationship were significantly related to improvement ($r = 0.37$ and $r = -0.24$ respectively). Confident Collaboration was summarized by the author with the statement “the patient is confident in and committed to a process that feels promising and helpful” (Hatcher & Barends, 1996, p. 1329). Idealized Relationship, according to Hatcher and Barends (1996) was comprised of two types of items: those reflecting helpful collaboration with the therapist and those reflecting more or less serious disagreement with the therapist. The items on this scale are reverse-scored so high scores indicate “not disagreeing.” However, the negative correlation (-0.27) led the authors to conclude that “patients who are the most reluctant to disagree with their therapist, relative to their reported overall alliance, actually report less progress in therapy” (Hatcher & Barends, 1996, p. 1329). Other factors that assessed goal and task agreement with the therapist, the sense of bond with the therapist, and patient dedication to the process of therapy, did not significantly correlate with patient improvement. In a more recent study, Clemence et al. (2003), again found a significant relationship between the Confident Collaboration subscale on the Combined Alliance Short Form – Patient Version (CAS-F) and the patient’s estimate of improvement ($r = .66$, $p<.001$). They noted that this finding was similar to results from two other independent research groups (Stiles et al., 1998; Hatcher, 1999). Using a step-wise regression, the authors found that a model including Confident Collaboration, Idealized Relationship and time in therapy best predicted improvement. There is an important limitation to the use of meta-analytic techniques and the research designs described in the last section, as a means to understanding the relationship between alliance and outcome. The limitation is that these studies are correlational and/or quasi-experimental in nature. There is an underlying, but unproven, assumption that changes in alliance precede symptom change. However, without continuous measurement of both alliance and symptoms it is impossible to ascertain if, for example, alliance measured early in treatment is predictive of final outcome because it “causes” change in symptomatology, or rather that early alliance is reflective of symptom improvement occurring after pre-treatment assessment of symptomatology. For example, patients who feel that they are improving may then begin to experience the therapy and the therapist in a more positive light. It is impossible to tell which comes first. A more continuous measure of change in alliance and symptomatology is required if we are to achieve a more detailed understanding of the correlation between alliance and outcome. The importance of continuous measures across time is evident when one considers the results of two separate studies by Martin et al. (2000) and Clemence et al. (2003). Martin et al. (2000), in their meta-analytic review, found that patients rated the alliance across sessions more reliably than therapists or observers (in terms of test-retest correlations). They interpreted this finding to suggest that patients viewed the alliance as more stable over time and as a result they were “more likely to view the alliance as positive at termination if their initial assessment was positive” (p.447). On the basis of this result, the authors stressed the importance for the therapist to establish a positive alliance early in therapy – however, they also admitted that this finding should be considered tentative due to the small sample size used for this specific comparison (N = 16 reliability indices). Although this finding is supportive of the current study’s reliance on client rated measures of alliance, it must be interpreted cautiously as such a low number of point estimates of alliance do not allow us to infer that patients’ views of alliance are actually “stable over time.” To accurately assess for stability, a greater number of measures are required across time. Clemence et al. (2003) found a positive correlation between patients’ rating of alliance and session number, indicating that alliance is not stable over time. However, this study had a cross-sectional design, that is, ratings of alliance were taken at one time only – after the patient’s most recent psychotherapy session following the start date of the study. Thus for some patients alliance was being rated in the early stages of treatment and at a later stage for others. The differing results of these two studies can be accounted by limitations in their methodology – I will argue that the most appropriate way to study the progress of alliance is to continuously assess it across time. Another problem in alliance research is to be found in the supportive evidence that Horvath and Symonds (1991) provide from their meta-analysis that the relationship between alliance and outcome is more than simply the result of a “halo” effect. A further analysis of the 20 studies used in their meta-analysis indicated that client rated outcome was better predicted by alliance (ES = 0.21) than therapist rated outcome (ES = 0.17), which in turn was better predicted than observer rated outcome (ES = 0.10). However, interpretation of these differences is compromised by the variability in the ES’s found throughout the studies, as noted by the authors. Furthermore, the higher correlation between *client-rated* measures of alliance and *client-rated* measures of outcome in comparison with *therapist*- and *observer-rated* measures of outcome may simply be the result of a source effect, whereby the use of similar sources for measurement inflates the correlation. Orlinsky and Howard (1986) cautioned that there is a potential method bias associated with studies that use measures of outcome and process obtained from the same source. A potential problem in the area of alliance research is that a client who is satisfied with the process of therapy is more likely to rate the outcome more favorably. Alternatively, a positive outcome may influence how a client later construes the process that brought about the change, e.g., idealization of the therapist. Both possibilities would imply that alliance might not be causative in regard to outcome but simply correlational and efforts to improve alliance may potentially be a misapplication of the therapist’s efforts. Thus, as part of their meta-analytic review, Horvath and Symonds (1991) investigated the hypothesis that process-outcome relations are inflated by a “halo” effect whereby a possible bias is produced in studies that use measures of process and outcome variables from the same source. In order to investigate the hypothesis that the relation between alliance and outcome is no more than the result of an artifactual “halo” effect, Horvath and Symonds (1991) contrasted ES’s of studies in which outcome and alliance measures were obtained from both homogeneous sources and heterogeneous sources. The mean homogeneous source ES was 0.21 and the mean heterogeneous ES was 0.18. A further analysis of studies in which results were based on both homogeneous and heterogeneous designs failed to yield significant differences. The authors concluded that differences between ES’s for studies using homogeneous and heterogeneous designs was “probably not systematically related to the ‘source’ factor” (p.144). As described above, the evidence that Horvath and Symonds (1991) provided to support their rejection of the “halo” hypothesis relied on the fact that the association between alliance and outcome was unaffected by whether or not the alliance and/or outcome measures were obtained from heterogeneous or homogeneous sources. However, the correlational nature of the evidence provided by the authors does not allow us to reach a definitive conclusion – variance in an outside observer’s rating of alliance could still be due to preceding changes in symptomatology. Any significant relationship between this rating of alliance and later or concurrent measures of outcome may be better explained by a strong correlation between the early and late measures of symptomatology. Once again we are left to wrestle with the question of which came first – changes in alliance or changes in outcome? Clemence et al. (2003) noted that it is unclear, from both their own study and previous studies, whether patients’ confidence in therapy later led to therapy gains or whether they got better and then became more confident with the therapist and therapeutic process. An alternative hypothesis to the proposal that alliance plays a causative role in therapeutic outcome is that indications of good alliance may simply be epiphenomena associated with improvement. This hypothesis can be expressed as a question: does alliance predict outcome or does outcome predict alliance? If this alternative hypothesis (of symptom change driving alliance change) holds, then the alliance should not “account for a significant proportion of final outcome after the variance associated with therapeutic gains measured at the same time as the alliance has been statistically removed” (Horvath, Luborsky, & Gaston, 1993, p. 260). Furthermore, it has been argued that if outcome predicts or leads alliance then “early, particularly first session measures of the alliance ought to be clearly less efficient predictors of outcome than measures obtained later in therapy” and the development of alliance “ought to follow therapeutic progress in a parallel fashion”, i.e., the alliance ought to go from poor to better as symptoms are reduced (Horvath, Luborsky, & Gaston, 1993, p. 260). To date, evidence from research has seemingly supported the hypothesis that alliance predicts outcome. Gaston et al. (1991) calculated partial correlations between alliance and outcome that controlled for initial symptomatology and in-treatment symptomatic change and she found that alliance predicted 36%-57% of the variance in final outcome over and above short-term improvements. Both Horvath and Symonds (1991) and Martin et al. (2000) in their separate meta-analytic reviews of the relation between alliance and outcome found early and late measures of alliance to be equally predictive of outcome, while middle-phase or averaged measures of alliance were less predictive. Finally, Safran et al. (1990) found that a positive outcome was associated with successful repairs of alliance ruptures rather than with a linearly-increasing, non-responsive development of alliance throughout therapy. Yet again, however, the studies used to test this hypothesis simply evaluate the degree of association between alliance and outcome. No attempt is made to assess continuous changes in both variables across time and thus to assess which variable is the lead, or predictor, variable. Research has clearly determined that there is a relationship between alliance and outcome but some important questions remain to be asked about the nature of this relationship and therapeutic alliance. First, does the introduction of therapy make a difference to a patient perception of alliance? The assumption in the literature is that alliance forms in response to actual therapy and this makes intuitive sense. A patient’s expectations about a therapist and the therapeutic process may be formed prior to starting therapy and continue to affect his/her perception of the therapy to such a degree that it over-clouds any reactions developed in response to the actual therapy. This question harkens back to the original psychodynamic literature on alliance – is there a distinction between alliance as a positive transference and alliance conceived as a reality-based collaboration (Freud, [1913], 1958; Zetzel, 1956; Greenson, 1965)? Second, does alliance change over time or does it stabilize? Clemence et al. (2003) present data to suggest that it does change, while Martin et al. (2000) argued that it is stable. An answer to this question could help determine if continuous measures of alliance are required in studying alliance, or if a few single-point estimates would suffice, e.g., immediately prior to therapy and at the third session. Third, is there a timecontingent relationship or a simultaneous relationship between alliance and outcome? If there is a time-contingent relationship, then do changes in alliance influence changes in symptoms or do changes in symptoms influence changes in alliance? This is a pivotal question in alliance research, as Barber et al. (2000) noted when arguing for the need to control for early symptom improvement if trying to determine the direction of the alliance-outcome relationship. **Time Series Designs in the Study of Therapeutic Alliance** These questions require a different methodology than has been used to date in the alliance literature, if they are to be answered with confidence. Recognition of this problem is evidenced by a paper by Kokotovic and Tracey (1990) in which they failed to find a relationship between working alliance and premature termination. They suggested that a more detailed assessment of how the alliance changes and develops over the initial sessions might be necessary if this relationship is to be further explicated. Specifically, they stated that “repeated measures of the alliance need to be made… one-point assessments, regardless of when made, do not appear to provide a complete picture of the process of working alliance establishment” (Kokotovic & Tracey, 1990, p. 21). One approach to addressing this problem in alliance-outcome research is to apply a time-series design to the problem. Time series analysis in psychology is most commonly associated with single subject research designs. Detailed analyses of individual cases have provided the impetus for much of current psychological theory and “clinical psychology has been defined as the application of psychological principles and techniques to the problems of the individual” (Kazdin, 1992, p.152). However, researchers in psychology have typically employed a nomothetic approach to the study of behavior that allows an understanding of variables through an analysis of group differences. Such analyses allow general statements to be made that are applicable to “average” individuals. Though utterly indispensable, random assignment, controlled group studies are not the only types of designs that can further the understanding of if and how an intervention works. The small n, time-series design can, if used properly, enable researchers to make perfectly viable and useful contributions to the literature (Barlow & Hersen, 1984; Chambless et al., 1996). A time series design is capable of answering all of the three questions posed above, and it can offer additional information on the efficacy of treatment by evaluating change in symptomatology relative to baseline levels as treatment is introduced. The purpose of the current study is to apply a time-series design to the questions posed above regarding therapeutic alliance, as well as evaluating the utility of such a design when applied to clinical research and outcome studies. Kazdin (1992) outlines several reasons why single subject case studies are of value to researchers. First, case studies serve as a source of ideas and hypotheses, that is, they generate promising hypotheses that can be further tested in larger group designs. Second, case studies have often been a source for developing therapy techniques. Third, case studies enable us to study rare phenomena. Fourth, case studies can provide a counter-instance for laws that are considered to be universally applicable. Finally, case studies can have persuasive and motivational value. However, it is notable that Kazdin fails to emphasize the direct empirical contribution that case studies can make, and there are clear reasons why this is so. Case studies have historically failed to incorporate systematic observation and controlled conditions and so many alternate explanations for any observed changes are possible. There is also a difficulty in assessing how the results of a single case study can be generalized to other individuals. Improvements have been made to the design of single-subject studies so that more valid inferences can be drawn from their results (Whitley, 1995). These include specification of criteria by which the internal validity of single-case designs can be evaluated (Kratochwill, 1992; Kratochwill, Mott, & Dodson, 1984; Yin, 1984). These criteria can be classified into five general categories: measurement criteria, replication criteria, control criteria, impact criteria and treatment criteria (Kratochwill et al., 1984). These criteria serve to “emphasize the impact and breadth of the effect of an intervention as means of ruling out chance effects and confounds as explanations for changes in the dependent variables” (Whitley, 1995, p. 323). While a group design assesses the effect of an intervention by comparing group differences, a single subject design compares different conditions applied to the same individual over time. Essentially, a single subject experimental design relies on continuous assessment of the variable of interest across phase A (e.g., pre-treatment or baseline) and phase B (e.g., treatment). Baseline assessment provides information about the initial level of the variable of interest and, more importantly, enables prediction of its level should the intervention not occur. This predicted level can be contrasted with the level obtained in the treatment phase to evaluate if the introduction of the intervention resulted in a significant change in the level of the variable. Unfortunately, evaluating the significance of the change can be complicated by the presence of autocorrelation in the data. Autocorrelation signifies the inherent relationship between observations taken at one point in time and observations taken on the same subject at a different time. The autocorrelation coefficient is the Pearson-Product-Moment correlation for two vectors of the same data. As Robey, Schultz, Crawford & Sinner (1999, p.451) explain: For a first order autocorrelation coefficient, the first vector contains the observations as they were collected in series. The first element of the second vector is set empty; the second element is the first observation, the third element is the second observation, and so forth. The second vector is said to be lag-1 variate. A correlation coefficient is calculated for the two vectors of data. So, for example, a lag-1 autocorrelation coefficient indexes the association between all values that are one time interval apart, i.e., the correlation between the values of the variable at time 1 and time 2, the values at time 2 and time 3, the values at time 3 and time 4, etc. A key problem with time series data is that the presence of autocorrelation can bias the analysis decisions and lead to Type I errors because the observations are not independent, i.e., the data predicts itself. A positive autocorrelation produces liberally biased errors and a negative autocorrelation produces conservatively biased errors (Crosbie, 1987). Fortunately, statistical programs have been developed to correct for the presence of autocorrelation in time series data. Box and Jenkins (1970) proposed a parsimonious class of models called the autoregressive, integrated, moving average (ARIMA) models to represent time series data. However, although this procedure has been found useful by researchers, it is complex and requires a good deal of experience and judgement to use effectively (Gottman, 1981). Gottman (1981) developed the interrupted time-series analysis (ITSA) for serially dependent time-series observation. Fundamentally, ITSA produces three statistical tests: (i) an F test of the null hypothesis that no general change occurred in the progression from phase A to phase B; (ii) a t-test for the null hypothesis that no change in slope occurred between phases A and B; and (iii) a t-test for the null hypothesis that no change in level occurred between phases A and B. Both the ARIMA and ITSA procedures require a large number of observations in each phase (Robey et al., 1999). Crosbie (1993) found that ITSA algorithms underestimate positive autocorrelation with short series of data and so he improved upon Gottman’s ITSA algorithm for assessing time series data. The improved algorithm, named ITSACORR, produces output that includes a test of overall change, a test of change of slope, and a test of change in level between phases. Robey et al. (1999) found that ITSACORR maintained Type I error “at or below the nominal level with satisfactory statistical power in the analysis of short-series data (i.e., fewer than 50 observations per period)” (Robey et al., 1999, p.460). The algorithm only appeared to falter when the autocorrelation was greater than 0.60 and sample sizes were less than 20, and thus Crosbie (1993) recommended a typical minimum of 10 observations per period. The advantage of ITSACORR, therefore, is that allows for an analysis of serially dependent data using a number of observations that are more clinically realistic. However, there are some problems associated with Crosbie’s (1993) ITSACORR analysis. With increasing autocorrelation present in the data and effect sizes less than 5, ITSACORR’s power can become significantly lowered (as a careful reading of Crosbie’s 1993 paper reveals). Also the collection of ten data-points for each phase may be prohibitive in a clinical setting, as patients are typically unwilling to delay treatment for the purpose of obtaining a baseline. For increased power with small-n data streams, McKean, Naranjo, and Huitema (2001) recommend the use of a bootstrapped version of Spearman’s rho for examining between-phase change in time-series data sets. Spearman’s rho was chosen due to its excellent small-sample properties. However, even the bootstrapped rho does not properly adjust for the increased Type-I error associated with positive autocorrelation, and it is not recommended for use with auto-correlated data streams (Jeong & Chung, 2001). A more viable approach to lessening the impact of autocorrelation and n-size on Type-I error is to conduct Monte-Carlo analyses on simulated data streams with known properties. For example, one could generate 10,000 random data streams (no programmed effects) with a baseline n-size of 5, a treatment n-size of 10 and a programmed autocorrelation of .67. Then we could calculate Spearman’s rho between a phase variable \((0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)\) and the random data for each of the 10,000 simulated streams and determine how many times out of 10,000 the value of rho was greater than some pre-determined value (for example, .30). This would be the number of times that rho is equal to, or greater than, .30 by chance alone when there is autocorrelation of .67 present and when phase-n sizes are equal to 5 and 10. If, for example, rho was equal to, or greater than, .30 for 532 of the 10,000 of the random streams, the probability of concluding there is an effect when in fact there is not with rho = .30 under conditions of autocorrelation = .67 and n-sizes of 5 and 10 is .0532. Therefore, we would expect that any time we have a time-series data stream with autocorrelation = .67, 5 baseline and 10 treatment data points and the value of rho (between our phase variable and our clinical data) is .30, there is a 5.32% chance that this value represents a type-I error. Since this value is greater than the preset alpha in social sciences (.05 or 5%), we fail to reject the null hypothesis that rho = 0. In keeping with this logic, an initial test of change in the level of each variable was performed using this Simulation Method (manuscript in progress, Borckardt et al., as described above). It was hypothesized that there would be a significant decrease in symptom levels (improvement) across the phases, as indicated by significant Spearman rho values. The null hypothesis was that there would be no significant change in symptom levels across phases, i.e., the Spearman rho values would be non-significant. It was further hypothesized that there would be a significant change in the levels of alliance variables across the phases, reflecting the patient’s changing attitude to therapy once engaged in the therapy proper. A change in alliance, as signified by significant Spearman rho values, would be suggestive of a shift from a transference relationship to a focus on the real relationship once therapy begins. The null hypothesis, which predicted no significant change in therapeutic alliance across phases (as indicated by non-significant Spearman rho-values), would support Martin et al’s (2000) finding that patients report alliance as stable over time, but may also suggest that the therapist’s initial activity in therapy has little impact on establishing an alliance, as it remains unchanged from baseline. In such a case, it could be argued that transference elements of the therapeutic relationship take precedence over the real relationship. This method, although allowing for an initial assessment of an effect on variable levels with the introduction of therapy, is limited in its ability to determine what accounts for the change. For example, a trend in baseline that produces a downward slope in symptomatology (improvement), and that continues into the treatment phase, will produce a lower mean in the treatment phase and a significant Spearman rho. However, the inferred effect for treatment would be a statistical artifact as the lower mean was due to the trend that began before treatment was introduced. Thus, an analysis is required that allows for modeling and assessment of the various components that describe the data stream. A popular approach to time-series modeling is the Durbin two-stage procedure (Durbin, 1960). This method first obtains autoregressive parameter estimates from the residuals of an initial fit of a linear model and then refitting the linear model on the basis of the estimates obtained in the first stage. For the current study, a two-stage Durbin-type approach (Durbin, 1960; Fuller, 1996) was applied to the data, fitting ARIMA models in the second stage for those variables in which there was an autoregressive component in the initial residuals. Four parameters were contained in the model: the intercept, baseline slope, level change and slope-change parameters. A t-statistic was estimated for each parameter to determine its significance. Huitema and McKean (1998) have demonstrated that, although ARIMA models are typically recommended for the analysis of interrupted time-series data, conventional regression models can also fit such data when there is no auto-regression in the residuals. They recommend the use of such linear regression models with small sample sizes, as ARIMA modeling is generally not recommended for samples sizes less than 50 because of reduced power (Box, Jenkins, & Reinsel, 1994). Huitema & McKean (2000) estimated the power of the Durbin-Watson Ordinary Least Squares regression method for data streams of 30 and 50 points with the population parameter $\rho = .70, .50,$ and $.30$ and four parameters in the model (e.g., intercept, baseline slope, level change and slope change). For $\rho = .70, .50,$ and $.30,$ and an $n$ of 30 data points, power was calculated as $.83, .67,$ and $.37$ respectively. With $\rho = .70, .50,$ and $.30,$ and an $n$ of 50 data points, power was calculated as $.98, .92,$ and $.61$ respectively. Therefore, because of expected small samples in the current study, conventional linear models (containing intercept, baseline slope, level change and slope-change parameters) were retained if the first stage of the analysis indicated no autoregressive component in the residuals. **Cross-Correlational Methodologies and the Study of Therapeutic Alliance** In addition to providing an answer to the question of whether alliance changes over time or remains stable and if the introduction of treatment affects the alliance in relation to the baseline, a time series analysis allows researchers to assess the cross-correlation of two time series and thus investigate the degree to which one time series predicts another. In essence, such an analysis tests whether across time the state of the alliance is largely determining therapeutic outcome or whether therapeutic outcome largely determines alliance. Such an approach allows for an evaluation of the degree of association between alliance and outcome while, by nature of the design, also permitting us to assess whether alliance leads outcome or vice versa. There are at least three possible approaches to this question. Bakeman, Adamson and Strisik (1995) describe a method that utilizes loglinear analysis to assess the degree to which one series predicts another. Unfortunately, while their approach is intuitively appealing, it is best suited for discrete behavioral events and it requires that continuous time series data be reduced to categorical data thus reducing variability. An alternative approach is provided by Gottman and Ringland (1981) who employed a procedure that utilized transfer function models to test for a lead-lag relationship between two series. Essentially, they fitted autoregressive models to each series and then attempted to predict the residual from an auto-regression on each series from the past of the other series. If there is no gain in prediction with the added term, then the smaller autoregressive model without the past of the other is sufficient. Due to autocorrelation, they could not derive exact F-ratio statistics to compare the smaller model with the larger models; instead they employed likelihood-ratio tests. In a review of cross-correlation analysis methods, Cook, Dintzer and Mark (1980) argue for the use of the Haugh-Box procedure (Haugh & Box, 1977; Haugh, 1976) as the most appropriate form of analysis. This procedure is a revision of the Box-Jenkins (1976) joint pre-whitening (whereby autoregressive components are partialled out of the data streams) and cross-correlation procedure, and requires independent pre-whitening of the data in both series using their own ARIMA models. In essence, this procedure models the time series data for the two variables of interest and then cross-correlates the resulting residuals from these models. The SPSS cross-correlation function can be used to calculate the degree of association between any two variables (or their residuals) across time. Cook et al. (1980) list several advantages in using this procedure. First, independent pre-whitening minimizes “spurious cross-correlations which may arise because of autocorrelation in Xt and Yt” (p.123). Second, “feedback effects (in which Xt affects later values of Yt and Yt also affects later values of Xt) should be easier to detect” (p.123-124). Third, “one need not specify a priori which is the causal series” (p.124). Fourth, Haugh (1976) has shown that when the series X and Y are unrelated, the cross-correlations between the residuals are “normally and independently distributed with a mean of zero and a standard deviation of $1/\sqrt{N}$” (Cook et al., 1980, p.124), thus allowing cross-correlations to be assessed against a standard error. Fifth, and most importantly, by pre-whitening the two series, “we remove that part of the current observation which could be predicted from past observations. Thus, when the pre-whitened series, $\hat{a}X$, is significantly correlated with lagged values of the pre-whitened series, $\hat{a}Y$, $\hat{a}X$ is predicting part of Y that could not be predicted by past values of Y alone” (p.124). There are, however, limitations to the Haugh-Box approach. Even if there is no autocorrelation between variables in a series Y, if the autoregressive series X causes the variable Y, then observed values of Y may be autocorrelated because of an indirect link through the autocorrelated causal variable X. Pre-whitening would remove this autocorrelation, even though this autocorrelation should be attributed to X, not Y. As a result, the causal parameter may be underestimated using the Haugh-Box procedure (Cook et al., 1980, p.126). Cook et al. (1980) consider the use of ARIMA models for pre-whitening to be a second disadvantage of the Haugh-Box procedure, as it requires the exercise of the researcher’s judgment at several decision points. However, they do not consider this to be a serious problem as one can conduct several Haugh-Box analyses using different ARIMA models if there is a question about the model fit. They also note that “the alternative ARIMA models that might be chosen usually lead to similar results because the alternative models are mathematically similar” (p.126). Other shortcomings of the Haugh-Box are also discussed by Cook et al. (1980, pp.126-127). First, ARIMA models may also not be the best choice to describe certain time series models and so the pre-whitening does not adequately transform the residuals into white noise. Second, if a series is completely regular it can be fully predicted on the basis of its own past, and therefore detecting its covariation with another series is impossible. Third, the residuals can be assumed to contain a higher proportion of measurement error than the original series, thus possibly attenuating the relationship between the residuals. Objectives and Hypotheses of the Current Study The central purpose of this study is to address three questions about the relationship between therapeutic alliance and symptom change (or outcome) in therapy. These questions were presented in the preceding introduction: (1) Does the introduction of therapy have an impact on the initial formation of alliance, or is alliance primarily a transference phenomenon? In other words, is it a here-and-now phenomenon or is it more influenced by prior expectations? (2) Does alliance change continuously over time or does it stabilize? (3) Is there a time-contingent relationship or a simultaneous relationship between alliance and outcome? If there is a time-contingent relationship, then do changes in alliance influence changes in symptoms or do changes in symptoms influence changes in alliance? The first question regarding the impact of therapy on the formation of alliance will be addressed by assessing for an intervention effect for therapy on alliance. Results from the Simulation Method and regression modeling or ARIMA modeling will be evaluated to determine the extent to which the introduction of therapy impacts alliance. The null hypothesis is that there will be no significant change in alliance across the two phases. Specifically, it is hypothesized that the Spearman rho values (obtained from the Simulation Method) for changes in the six alliance factors will be non-significant. Non-significant Spearman rho values are sufficient support for the null hypothesis, but the presence of significant Spearman rho values does not necessitate rejection of the null hypothesis. With the occurrence of significant Spearman rho values indicating a change in the treatment phase level of alliance, the null hypothesis can only be rejected if the t-statistic of either the parameter for level change or slope change in the treatment phase is significant. Otherwise, the presence of a significant baseline slope parameter or autoregressive parameter could account for a change in alliance across the phases that is unrelated to the introduction of therapy. The null hypothesis will be rejected if there is a significant level change or slope change parameter indicating a treatment effect in the regression or ARIMA model. In order to provide some estimate of the generalizability of the results bearing on this hypothesis, a count was made across all subjects of the number of significant baseline slope parameters and of the number of significant level change or slope change parameters indicating a treatment effect. A binomial test was then performed to test for a discrepancy in the ratio of non-significant to significant treatment-phase mean and slope parameters. A result indicating a statistically greater number of significant treatment effect parameters than would be expected by chance, would entail a rejection of the null hypothesis. A summation of effect-size, from all subjects, for change in means across the two phases will also be presented for all six factors. The second question could be addressed by a visual analysis of the data points of each alliance factor, which would indicate stabilization by the presence of a non-varying horizontal line at some point in the series. A complete lack of variance was unlikely, however, and thus relative stability was also assessed through a consideration of slope and level changes across time. The null hypothesis could be stated as the expectation of no change in alliance across time, both before and after the introduction of therapy. The null hypothesis was rejected if and only if there was either a significant slope change parameter for the baseline phase or the treatment phase (estimated from a regression or ARIMA model), indicating ongoing change in alliance across time. As an indication of the generalizability of this hypothesis, a count was made for each alliance factor across all subjects of the number of times there were significant slope parameters. A binomial test was then performed to test for a discrepancy in the ratio of significant baseline and treatment slope parameters versus non-significant baseline and treatment slope parameters. A result indicating a statistically greater number of significant slope parameters than would be expected by chance, would entail a rejection of the null hypothesis of no change in slope. The third question requires testing of the hypothesis that there is a time-contingent relationship between the client’s perception of the alliance and outcome. Specifically, the null hypothesis can be stated as the expectation that there will be no statistically significant correlation between residuals in the alliance series and residuals in the symptomatology series at lag values other than 0. Using the Haugh-Box procedure described in the introduction, the correlogram of alliance and outcome measures will be assessed for the presence of significant cross-correlational r-values for lags other than zero. The presence of significant cross-correlational r-values for lags other than zero will entail rejection of the null hypothesis, indicating that the relationship is time-contingent. Alpha-levels for significance were set at $\alpha = .10$, with a Bonferroni correction requiring p-values <.01 for significance. Only relationships between certain variables were tested. Specifically, it was hypothesized that there would be a significant lead-lag relationship (significant r-values at lags other than zero) between Confident Collaboration (CCOL) on the Combined Alliance Short Form – Patient Version 3 (CAS3) scale and (1) the measure of symptom distress (OQSD) on Lambert & Burlingame’s (1996). Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45), (2) the total score on the OQ-45 (OQ-Total), (3) the total score on the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and (4) the total score on the Beck Anxiety Scale (BAI). These specific hypotheses were derived from previous findings in the literature that Confident Collaboration is significantly related to measures of patient improvement/symptom change (Hatcher, 1999, Stiles et al., 1998, Clemence et al., 2003). It was hypothesized that Confident Collaboration scale 2 on the CAS3 (COL2) would be significantly related to the measure of interpersonal functioning on the OQ-45 (OQ-IR), the measure of social functioning on the OQ-45 (OQ-SR), and the BDI and the BAI. No literature exists on this scale’s relationship to outcome, but it was expected to be significantly related to these variables, partly because of its expected similarity to the Confident Collaboration scale. However, the COL2 scale emphasizes the patient’s confidence in the therapist, rather than confidence in the therapeutic process in general, and so the hypothesis specifically addressed areas of interpersonal functioning (OQ-IR and OQ-SR), rather than symptomatic change. The expected relationship to the BDI was intended to address the aspect of social withdrawal inherent in depression – it is hoped that a confident relationship with a therapist may engender greater confidence in a patient to re-initiate social contacts. The expected relationship to anxiety reflects the expectation that confidence in the therapist may serve to bind anxiety in the patient and have effects outside the therapy. It was hypothesized that the Idealized Relationship scale on the CAS3 (IDRX) would be significantly cross-correlated with general outcome measures: symptom distress (OQ-SD), total score on the OQ-45 (OQ-Total), depression, (BDI), and anxiety (BAI). Hatcher and Barends (1996) found a significant but negative correlation between improvement and the IDRX. Hence, a similar negative correlation was expected to be found between IDRX and outcome measures; which would suggest a relationship between how much a patient disagrees with a therapist and the amount of symptomatic improvement. It was also hypothesized that the Idealized Relationship (IDRX), Patient Dedication (DEDP) and Bond (BOND) subscales on the CAS3 would be related to outcome measures of interpersonal functioning (OQ-IR) and social functioning (OQ-SR). These three alliance factors address the patients perceived relationship to the therapist but only one of them, IDRX, has been found to be significantly related to outcome (Hatcher & Barends, 1996, Clemence et al., 2003). Goal and Task Agreement (GOAL) was also expected to be related to interpersonal functioning (OQ-IR) and social functioning (OQ-SR), as it is expected that the capacity to agree on shared tasks would be reflected in both interpersonal domains and group-oriented settings, such as work. Psychodynamic theories of therapeutic action (e.g., Malan, 1995; Menninger, 1958) emphasize how work on the here-and-now relationship within therapy impacts interpersonal and social functioning outside of therapy. Indeed, Goldfried (1991) found that psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapists provided interpersonal feedback to patients to equal degrees but that such feedback was more strongly related to outcome for the psychodynamic therapists. It is more likely that a relationship between these alliance factors and outcome will be observed if outcome is considered in terms of interpersonal and social functioning, rather than symptom distress. Three alliance factors were expected to be related to anxiety as evaluated by the BAI: Goal and Task Agreement (GOAL), Bond (BOND) and Patient Dedication (DEDP). The assurance inherent in developing a clear set of goals was expected to have a positive effect on presenting anxiety. It is also possible that changes in anxiety would affect a patient’s capacity to be assured by a clear therapeutic plan of action. Feeling attached to the therapist is likely to increase comfort in the therapy and act to reduce general anxiety. Likewise, anxiety may impede the development of a close relationship. Patient dedication reflects negative aspects of the patient’s participation in therapy; anxiety and inhibited participation are expected to be related, based on psychodynamic literature regarding resistance in therapy (e.g., Malan, 1995). Indeed, Wachtel (1997, p. 86) describes therapy as a general extinction of anxiety as “progressively more anxiety-provoking thoughts are in turn expressed and go unpunished.” Given the limited power of the Haugh-Box procedure to detect a time-contingent relationship (Cook et al., 1980), any of the predicted relationships as described on the last three pages that were significant at the .10 level (with a Bonferroni correction) were further evaluated using a meta-analytic approach. The cross-correlational r-statistics for the relationship would be converted to Fisher’s Z and averaged across all subjects for that particular lag-value. The obtained Z-value was then re-converted to an effect-size as per Rosenthal and Rosnow (1991). Using Cohen’s (1992) classification system, r-values between .10 and .29 were classified as small effects; r-values between .30 and .49 as medium effects; and r-values equal to, or greater than, .50 as large effects. The null hypothesis, that there is no time-contingent relationship between alliance and outcome, can be expressed as the expectation that there will be no significant effect size (i.e., the absolute value of the estimated effect size across all subjects will be <.10) for the cross-correlationally derived r-values. Also, for each posited relationship (e.g., CCOL with OQ-SD, OQ-Total, BDI and BAI) the significant lag-values will be evaluated to determine whether alliance leads outcome or vice versa. Negative lags would indicate that outcome drives alliance, while positive lags would indicate that alliance drives outcome. Zero lags will indicate simultaneous covariance. Lag-values associated with significant cross-correlational r-statistics in a single subject, without replication in other subjects, will only be considered suggestive of a possible causal direction. The presence of a significant effect size, summed across all subjects, for that particular relationship at that specific lag-value will be required if the null hypothesis of no time-contingent relationship between alliance and outcome is to be confidently rejected. CHAPTER II METHOD Design The design of this study was primarily an AB type within-subject bivariate time domain design, where A refers to a pre-treatment baseline phase and B refers to a treatment phase. Multiple measures were taken at each time point in both the A and B phases of the study and these measures were repeated across all time points, allowing for an evaluation of treatment effects. Furthermore, the application of multiple measures at each time point allowed assessment of the degree to which one series of measurements (alliance) increases prediction of a second series of measurements (outcome/symptomatology) over the second series’ own past. Subjects Subjects were clients at the University of Tennessee Psychological Clinic. All clients who presented for their initial intake interview were asked to provide answers to four measures – a modified CAS-3, the OQ-45.2, the BDI-II and the BAI – before beginning the interview. At the end of the intake interview, the interviewer decided if the client was suitable for inclusion in the study. Inclusion criteria were that (1) the client has a circumscribed presenting problem with depression or anxiety as a symptom; and (2) the interviewer judged the client to be adequately psychologically minded to benefit from short-term psychotherapy. Exclusion criteria included (1) evidence of an organic disorder; (2) evidence of a current manic episode; (3) current suicidality; (4) psychosis; (5) age less than 18 years old; and (6) any evidence of a condition requiring immediate hospitalization. Originally ten female subjects and two male subjects participated in the study. However, only seven female subjects and one male subject completed the study with an adequate amount of data-points to be used in an analysis. Four subjects were excluded because they dropped out of treatment prematurely; three prior to the treatment phase, and one after her seventh week of therapy. The average age of the subjects was 22 years (SD = 10.16) with a range from 21 to 43. There was a bimodal distribution of ages, with four subjects aged between 21 and 23, one subject aged 27 and three subjects aged between 40 and 43. Seven subjects, including the male subject, were Caucasian and one subject was African American. Seven subjects presented with a depressive disorder or were seeking help for depressive symptoms. Only one subject presented with primary diagnosis of panic disorder, although even she was simultaneously treated for depressive symptoms. The following sections present brief sketches of each subject including their presenting problem and diagnosis. Certain details have been changed to protect the identity of the subject, including their name and profession. DSM-IV diagnoses are presented for each subject. Subject 1: Ailish Ailish was a 22-year-old single, Caucasian female who worked in financial services. She presented at the clinic with concerns about her chronic moodiness, which had long been a part of her life. She also complained of a general anxiety. Summary findings of a psychological evaluation indicated that she had superior intellectual abilities, and used this strength to cope with her persistent feelings of anger, low self-worth, and generally Dysthymic disposition. She was considered to be psychologically-minded by her evaluator and motivated to change how she felt. However, she was prone to intellectualizing the process of change, which served to estrange her from the feelings that might need expression in therapy. It was recommended that she begin once-weekly psycho-dynamic psychotherapy that addressed her morbid mood states, unmet dependency needs, and feelings of loss and separation that had been exacerbated by the untimely death of her mother. Her therapist was a female clinical psychology graduate student in her third month of clinical practice. Her DSM-IV (American Psychiatric Association, 1994) diagnosis was: Axis I – 300.4 Dysthymic Disorder Rule out, Generalized Anxiety Disorder Axis II - 799.9 Diagnosis deferred, Dependent & Melancholic Features Axis III - None reported Axis IV - None reported Axis V - GAF = 65 (at intake) Subject 2: Brianna Brianna was a 23-year-old African-American female, who worked as an administrative assistant. She presented at the clinic for help with depressive and anxiety symptoms. She also sought help for figuring out the direction of her life. She stated that she had previously been diagnosed with manic depression and an anxiety disorder. Her mother had passed away five months prior to her presentation at the clinic. She was trying to start anew but was encountering resistance from her relatives. Her prior therapy experience was at a university counseling center, but health problems with her mother prevented her from staying in therapy. Her presenting symptoms included middle insomnia, daily fatigue, and decreased appetite. She was recommended for weekly insight-oriented therapy at the clinic, and she appeared to be quite clear about what she wanted from therapy. Her therapist was a female clinical psychology graduate student in her second month of clinical practice. Her DSM-IV diagnosis at time of intake was: | Axis I | 311 Depressive Disorder, NOS | |--------|------------------------------| | Axis II | 799.9 Diagnosis deferred | | Axis III | None reported | | Axis IV | None reported | | Axis V | GAF = 55 (at intake) | Subject 3: Ciara Ciara was a 40-year-old divorced, Caucasian woman. She had worked as a systems analyst for some years, but was unemployed at the time of presentation to the clinic. She presented at the clinic in order to develop more adaptive coping skills and to learn to set better boundaries with others. She was sexually abused from age 7 to age 15, and she had experienced depression (emotional flatness and sense of worthlessness) and disordered eating (overeating followed by loss of appetite) since that time. Ciara reported some close friendships, but noted that she was careful about maintaining a certain distance in relationships. She was also seeking help for her ongoing depressive symptoms and she was recommended to begin once-weekly insight-oriented therapy at the clinic. Her only prior experience of therapy was stress management for a few months in 1995. Her therapist was a male clinical psychology graduate student in his eleventh month of clinical practice. Her DSM-IV diagnosis at time of intake was Axis I – 300.4 Dysthymic Disorder, Early Onset 307.50 Eating Disorder, NOS 309.81 Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Chronic Axis II - 799.9 Diagnosis deferred Axis III - None reported Axis IV - Unemployed Axis V - GAF = 55 (at intake) Subject 4: Deirdre Deirdre was a 21-year-old, Caucasian female who was a nursing student at the time of intake. She presented at the clinic with depressive symptoms, including lack of motivation, concentration difficulties, low appetite, and sleep difficulties that varied from week to week (insomnia, hypersomnia, early waking). Her mother died from cancer when Deirdre was 16 years old. She reported that relationships with others often drained her because she felt that she was always listening to other people’s problems. Her therapist noted that Deirdre had a dysthymic character. Weekly insight-oriented therapy aimed at exploring her lack of motivation, emotional constriction, feelings of indifference and indecision, with a short-term goal of reducing her depressive symptoms. The therapist noted that Deirdre was anxious about therapy and so she decided to initially work on establishing a strong alliance and bond in the therapy, whereby the patient would feel safer to discuss her feelings in therapy. The patient ended therapy abruptly after 32 sessions. Session content at the time of termination revolved around school issues, increased sleep, others’ perception of her, and some dream-work. Her therapist was a female clinical psychology graduate student in her sixth month of clinical practice. Her DSM-IV diagnosis was: Axis I – 300.4 Dysthymic Disorder Axis II - 799.9 Diagnosis deferred Axis III - None reported Axis IV - None reported Axis V - GAF = 55 (at intake) Subject 5: Elaine Elaine was a 43-year-old Caucasian, divorced female who presented at the clinic, seeking help to control her bipolar condition and also to develop greater emotional stability. She was also seeking clarification of her central concerns so that she could develop better coping skills. Her central concern at time of presentation was interpersonal difficulties with her daughter. Elaine was also experiencing work difficulties. Elaine had a pattern of involvement with men that was marked by initial idealization, followed by harsh disappointment. She also reported that she had never felt like she fit in with peers, and at the time of presenting to the clinic, she was becoming aware of a greater desire for social isolation. It was recommended that she begin weekly psychodynamic psychotherapy with an initial focus on helping her develop clear goals for the therapy, and reducing her depressive symptoms. Her therapist was a male clinical psychology graduate student in his seventh month of clinical practice. Her DSM-IV diagnosis was: Axis I – 296.7 Bipolar I Disorder, Most recent episode unspecified Axis II - Rule out Borderline Personality Disorder Axis III - Migraines, narcolepsy & high blood pressure (reported by patient) Axis IV - Family tension & work difficulties Axis V - GAF = 50 (at intake) Subject 6: Fiona Fiona was a 21-year-old single, Caucasian female studying literature as an undergraduate student. She was referred by her psychiatrist for help with recurring panic attacks; the patient believed that the panic were triggered by stress. She was also seeking help with interpersonal issues, and she wished to understand a past abusive relationship with a boyfriend as well as her lack of a relationship with her biological father. Her therapist noted that she was of average intellectual functioning and that she had an obsessive-compulsive personality style. Fiona was recommended to begin once weekly insight-oriented therapy with the goal of improving interpersonal relationships and her style of relating to men, as well as improving her ability to cope with stress and anxiety. The therapist also aimed to improve mood, alleviate depressive symptoms and help improve the patient’s self-image. Her therapist was a female clinical psychology graduate student in her second month of clinical practice. Her diagnosis was: Axis I – 300.01 Panic Disorder without Agoraphobia Axis II - 799.9 Diagnosis deferred, Obsessive-compulsive features Axis III - Hypothyroidism, low blood sugar, anemia and history of cervical cancer (all reported by patient) Axis IV - None reported Axis V - GAF = 55 (at intake) Subject 7: Gerald Gerald was a 43-year-old, married, Caucasian male who presented to the clinic seeking therapy for a long history of social anxiety and depression. He also reported a history of changing jobs and an inability to sustain employment. Data from his psychological evaluation indicate that while he possessed superior intelligence, long-term stressors disordered his thinking and compromised his functioning. Weekly insight-oriented psychotherapy was recommended, with an emphasis on supportive work to help the patient develop new ways of tolerating anxiety and stress. Despite clear intelligence, a tendency towards perfectionism and a strong sense of responsibility, his assessment indicated that these qualities would be severely compromised by paranoid concerns, disordered thinking and over-reliance on repression. It was recommended that the therapy proceed slowly due to Gerald’s low self-esteem, shyness, intellectualization and avoidance. A strong therapeutic alliance was expected to take a long time to build. His therapist was a male clinical psychology graduate student in his second month of clinical practice. His diagnosis was: Axis I – 296.32 Major Depressive Disorder, Recurrent, Moderate Rule out: 300.04 Dysthymic Disorder Axis II - 301.22 Schizotypal Personality Disorder w/ Narcissistic features Axis III - Migraine headaches (reported by patient) Axis IV - Social support, occupational problems Axis V - GAF = 45 Subject 8: Hilda Hilda was a 27-year-old, single, Caucasian female who presented to the clinic with symptoms of depression after the ending of a $3\frac{1}{2}$-year romantic relationship. She reported depressed mood, crying episodes, sleep disturbance, low appetite, weight loss, anhedonia, hopelessness, decreased self-esteem, increased anxiety and irritability at work. Her therapist noted that Hilda was of average intelligence but that her thoughts and feelings were disorganized. She also had little sense of self or capacity for independence. Hilda was recommended to begin weekly insight-oriented psychotherapy. Soon after therapy began, she reconciled with her boyfriend and her depressive symptoms began to lift. The initial focus of therapy was to develop a therapeutic alliance that would allow her to feel secure. However, her irregular attendance was disruptive and, from the therapist’s perspective, a solid alliance was not accomplished. She eventually began exploring issues around food, self-image and control, but she abruptly terminated. Her therapist was a female clinical psychology graduate student who was in her sixth month of clinical practice. Her diagnosis was: Axis I – 309.0 Adjustment Disorder with Depressed Mood, Acute 307.51 Bulimia Nervosa Axis II - 799.9 Diagnosis deferred, dependent features Axis III - None reported Axis IV - Primary support group Axis V - GAF = 55 (at intake) Four scales were used for the purpose of this study: the Beck Depression Inventory – II (BDI-II), the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45.2), and the Combined Alliance Short Form – Patient version 3 (CAS3). A modified form of the CAS3 is given to patients during the period before treatment (the baseline phase) that contains the same items, but different instructions. The modified instructions ask patients to “think about your expectations of therapy since the last time you filled out this form, and decide what category best describes how you expect you will experience therapy once it begins.” The unmodified instructions ask the patient to “think about your experience in therapy since the last time you filled out this form, and decide which category best describes your own experience.” **The Beck Depression Inventory – II** The BDI-II is a version of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-IA; Beck & Steer, 1993b) that was modified in order to be more consonant with DSM-III-R & DSM-IV criteria for depression. It was constructed to assess the severity of self-reported depression in adolescents and adults. The BDI-II consists of 21 items, each of which are rated on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 to 3 and total scores can range from 0 to 63. According to Beck et al. (1996), BDI-II scores ranging from 0 to 13 indicate “Minimal” depression; scores ranging from 14 to 19 are “Mild,” scores from 20 to 28 are “Moderate;” and scores greater than 28 are “Severe.” Respondents are asked to describe themselves for the “Past Two Weeks, Including Today.” With regard to its reliability and validity, Beck, Steer and Brown (1996) reported that the 1-week test-retest reliability for 26 outpatients was high ($r = 0.93$, $p<.001$). In a comparison of the BDI-II and the BDI-IA (Beck & Steer, 1993b), Beck, Steer, Ball and Ranieri (1996) administered both scales to 140 psychiatric outpatients. The correlation between the BDI-II and the BDI-IA was 0.93 ($p<.001$) and the coefficient alpha of the BDI-IA for the 140 outpatients was 0.89 and 0.91 for the BDI-II. Neither instrument was significantly associated with the characteristics of sex, ethnicity and age and both were positively related to being diagnosed with a mood disorder. The authors concluded that the two measures “displayed a similar pattern of relationships with the same psychological characteristics” and that the “transition from the usage of the BDI-IA to that of the BDI-II should introduce no meaningful interpretative problems” (Beck, Steer, Ball & Ranieri, 1996, p. 596). Regarding its convergent and discriminant validities, Beck et al. (1996) also reported that, for 87 outpatients, it was more positively correlated with the revised Hamilton Psychiatric Rating Scale for Depression (Riskind, Beck, Brown, & Steer, 1987; $r = 0.71$) than it was with the revised Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (Riskind et al., $r = 0.47$). **The Beck Anxiety Inventory** The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI; Beck & Steer, 1993a) is a 21 item questionnaire that was designed as a measurement of clinical anxiety that could reliably discriminate anxiety from depression while displaying convergent validity (Beck, Epstein, Brown & Steer, 1988). Its 21 items were derived from an initial pool of 86 items that were gleaned from three self-report scales: the Anxiety Checklist (Beck, Steer, & Brown, 1985); the Physician’s Desk Reference Checklist (Beck, 1978); and the Situational Anxiety Checklist (Beck, 1982). Each item requires the respondent to rate how much he/she has been bothered by each symptom over the past week on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (Not at all) to 3 (Severely – I could barely stand it). The items are summed to obtain a total score than can range from 0 to 63. BAI scores ranging from 8 to 15 indicate mild anxiety, scores from 16 to 25 indicate moderate anxiety and scores from 26 to 63 indicate severe anxiety. Beck, Epstein, Brown & Steer (1988) found that the alpha coefficient for the final 21-item BAI was 0.92 and that the item-total correlations ranged form 0.30 to 0.71 with a median of 0.60. The 1-week test-retest reliability for a subsample of 83 patients was found to be 0.75. A factor analysis indicated two underlying dimensions – the first being somatic symptoms and the second being subjective anxiety and panic symptoms (Beck et al., 1988). The authors reported that the correlation between the BDI and the BAI was 0.48. However, in a test of its discriminant validity, a combined factorial analysis of the 21 BAI and the 21 BDI items was performed and it resulted in three factors made up of BAI items and one factor of BDI items. As the authors noted, “only one BAI item (“terrified”) loaded on the Depression factor, and it had a secondary loading” (Beck et al., 1988, p. 895). Furthermore, in the same study one-way analyses of variance followed by Tukey’s tests indicated that the mean BAI score was significantly higher in a group diagnosed as having a primary DSM-III anxiety disorder than in either the depressed or the control groups, which did not differ from each other. The Outcome Questionnaire The Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45.2; Lambert, Hansen et al., 1996) is a 45 item questionnaire that was produced as a result of the collaboration between two managed care corporations and a university research program. It was designed to measure three areas of client functioning: symptomatic distress, interpersonal problems, and social role adjustment. As well as measuring “symptomatic complaints, poor interpersonal relations, and dysfunction in social roles,” it also contains items that assess “positive mental health or quality of life” (Lambert, Okiishi, Finch & Johnson, 1998, p. 64). Clients answer each item on the basis of a 5-point scale ranging from 0 to 4 (the anchor labels are “Never” and “Almost Always”). Twenty-five items comprise the Symptomatic Distress (SD) subscale, resulting in a possible score ranging from 0 to 100. A further 11 items make up the Interpersonal Relations (IR) subscale, allowing a range of scores between 0 and 44. The Social Role Adjustment (SR) subscale contains a further 9 unique items, thus providing a score ranging between 0 and 36. The three individual scores on these subscales are then summed to produce a Total score, which ranges between 0 and 180. A total score of 63 is taken as an indication that the client is outside the functional range on the OQ: most clients enter therapy with a raw score of 75 or higher. The reliable change index was estimated to be 15 (Lambert, Okiishi, Finch, & Johnson, 1998, p. 64). Thus, for example, a client who enters therapy in the dysfunctional range but who moves below 63 on the OQ-45.2 by the end of therapy and who decreases their Total score by at least 15 points is considered “improved.” Internal reliability was reported to be in the low 0.90’s and its test-retest coefficients ranged between 0.70 – 0.80 (Lambert, Okiishi, Finch & Johnson, 1998). Lambert et al. (1998) also detailed the results of several validity studies, which indicated that the OQ-45.2 correlated highly with the Symptom Checklist-90-R, General Severity Index (Derogatis, 1977), $r = 0.72$; the Beck Depression Inventory (Beck, Steer, & Garbin, 1988) $r = 0.80$; and that it correlated moderately with measures of interpersonal problems and social role adjustment (Inventory of Interpersonal Problems [Horowitz, Rosenberg, Baer, Ureno & Villasenor, 1988], $r = 0.60$; Social Adjustment Rating Scale [Weissman & Bothwell, 1976], $r = 0.62$), (Lambert, Burlingame et al., 1996; Umphress, Lambert, Smart, Barlow & Clouse, 1997). The OQ-45.2 was also found to be relatively stable in non-treated individuals while being sensitive to change in patients undergoing psychotherapy (Lambert, Thompson, Andrews, Kadera, & Eriksen, 1996). **The Combined Alliance Short Form – Patient Version 3** The Combined Alliance Short Form – Patient Version 3 (CAS3, Hatcher & Barends, 1996) is a 33 item self report measure of therapeutic alliance that was derived from the factor analysis of three separate alliance measures – the Working Alliance Inventory (WAI; Horvath & Greenberg, 1986, 1989); the Penn Helping Alliance Questionnaire (HAQ; Alexander & Luborsky, 1986); and the California Psychotherapy Alliance Scales (CALPAS; Gaston, 1991). Clients rate their experience of therapy on a scale of 1 to 7 (with corresponding labels of “Never” and “Always”). The scale has also been found to have adequate reliability and validity with alpha coefficients ranging from $\alpha = 0.84$ for the Idealized Relationship subscale to $\alpha = 0.91$ for the Bond subscale (Personal communication from R.L. Hatcher as referenced on p.90 of Ackerman, Hilsenroth, Baity & Blagys, 1999). Scores are obtained for 6 subscales – each subscale is composed of at least five separate items. The individual subscales were obtained from the factor analysis of the original three alliance scales (Hatcher & Barends, 1996). The first subscale, Confident Collaboration, may be summarized as the patient being “confident in and committed to a process that feels promising and helpful” (Hatcher & Barends, 1996, p. 1329). A sample item on the subscale is “Do you feel that even though you might have moments of doubt, confusion, or mistrust, that overall therapy is worthwhile?” A second subscale, termed Confident Collaboration 2, was included in the most recent version of the scale and, in contrast to the first Confident Collaboration subscale, it emphasizes confidence in the therapist, rather than the overall process of therapy. An item from this subscale is “My therapist and I work well together on my problems.” The Goals and Tasks subscale consists of 5 items and assesses the client’s perception of having similar goals and tasks as the therapist. One item on that subscale is “My therapist and I agree on what is important for me to work on.” The Bond subscale consists of 5 items and measures the degree to which the client feels he/she is liked and accepted by the therapist. An item on this subscale is “I feel my therapist cares about me even when I do things that he/she does not approve of.” The Idealized Relationship subscale consists of 5 items (all reverse-scored) and reflects two types of items: “(a) items reflecting a sense of helpful collaboration with the therapist and (b) items reflecting more or less serious disagreement with the therapist” (Hatcher & Barends, 1996, p.1329). An example of an item on this subscale is “Do you find your therapist’s comments unhelpful, that is, confusing, mistaken, or not really applying to you?” The Dedicated Patient subscale contains 5 items (all reverse-scored) and focuses on the negative aspects of the patient’s participation in the therapeutic process and, unlike the Idealized Relationship subscale, it does not include items that reflect helpful collaboration with the therapist. This subscale focuses on the actions of the patient. An item on that subscale is “When important things came to mind, how often did you find yourself keeping them to yourself, rather than sharing them with your therapist?” **Procedure** Potential clients at the University of Tennessee Psychological Clinic were screened to assess their suitability for the current study. The screening occurred when the client came to the Clinic for their initial intake interview. Upon presenting to the clinic for the intake interview, all clients were presented with four scales (in addition to the standard forms that they fill in before the intake) that they were asked to complete before beginning the interview. The scales were the modified form of the CAS3, (assessing expectations for alliance), the OQ-45.2, the BDI-II and the BAI as described in the measures section above. At the end of the interview, the interviewer decided, on the basis of the inclusion and exclusion criteria listed in the Subject section above, if the client was a suitable candidate for this study. If the client was deemed suitable he/she was asked to sign a consent form that explained the nature of the study and what they were required to do. He/she was then given a packet of four questionnaires that were to be completed at home on day four after the interview – the client was informed that a student would contact them on that day to remind them to complete the packet. The three questionnaires in the packet were the modified CAS3, the OQ-45.2, the BDI-II and the BAI. As per the description in the consent form, the client was again informed that they would have to complete this packet twice a week for at least the following 12 weeks – once at home on the fourth day after each assessment/therapy session and once at the clinic immediately before an assessment/therapy session. The assessment period extended over a minimum of two weeks and involved two separate assessment sessions, with each session one week apart and with the first assessment session occurring exactly one week after the initial interview. This procedure, in conjunction with the pre-intake screening, provided the required minimum of seven separate baseline data-points for each measurement without the need to extend the period between intake and therapy to more than three weeks. At the end of each assessment session the client was given the relevant four questionnaires to complete at home. They sealed their dated and completed questionnaires in a provided envelope, and gave the envelope to the receptionist before the next therapy session. Immediately prior to each assessment session, the client completed the same packet in the clinic and upon completion, he/she also gave these dated questionnaires in a sealed envelope to the receptionist. No names were on the forms, in case the patient lost the forms before giving them to the receptionist. Upon receipt of the envelopes, the client’s initials were placed on the outside and the envelope was collected that day and stored by either the primary investigator or a research assistant. During the psychotherapy phase, which began no earlier than one week after the second assessment (depending on the wait-list for the clinic), the same procedure was followed with the client completing the questionnaires on a twice weekly basis – once immediately before a therapy session while at the clinic and once at home on the fourth day after each therapy session. The only change to the procedure was that the CAS3 was given in a non-modified form, as the assessment of alliance was to be in response to the actual therapy rather than the client’s expectations regarding the nature of the therapeutic relationship. Again, no names were on these forms. The collection of data during the psychotherapy phase continued for at least ten weeks of therapy session. This provided the investigator with at least 19 treatment-phase data-points. Data for each subject on all outcome measures (OQ-SD, OQ-IR, OQ-SR, BDI & BAI) and all alliance subscales (CCOL, COL2, GOAL, BOND, DEDP & IDRX) were graphed for an initial visual analysis. Twelve graphs were created for each subject, one for each variable, plotting its value at each time point in the baseline phase and the treatment phase. Means and standard deviations for all variables across both phases were also calculated. Spearman’s Rho and empirically derived probability values (derived using Borckardt’s Simulation Method as described in the Methodology chapter) are presented for each variable as an initial check for treatment effects – significant negative Rho-values are associated with significant decreases across the treatment phase relative to baseline, while significant positive Rho-values are similarly associated with significant increases. Effect sizes for changes in the mean level of each variable from the baseline to the treatment phase were calculated by dividing the difference in phase means by the standard deviation of the baseline (White et al., 1989, Busk & Serlin, 1992). A regression analysis was then run for each variable of interest, using the following equation: \[ Y(T) = \beta_0 + \beta_1.T + \beta_2.X + \beta_3.XT + \varepsilon \] where \( Y(T) \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For each data point in the baseline phase, \( T = n-N1 \), where \( n = (1, 2, 3, \ldots, N1) \) and \( N1 \) is the number of points in the baseline phase. For each data point in the treatment phase, $T = (1, 2, 3, \ldots, N2)$ where $N2$ is the number of points in the treatment phase. For example, with a baseline of 5 points and a treatment phase of 7 points the values for $T = (-4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)$. The value of $X$ is 0 for each point in the baseline and 1 for each point in the treatment phase. $XT$ is an interaction term obtained by multiplying the values of $X$ and $T$, producing values of 0 for each point in the baseline phase and a sequential range of values for each point in the treatment phase $= (1, 2, 3, \ldots, N2)$, where $N2$ is again the number of points in the treatment phase. In the example just given, values for $X = (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)$ and values for $XT = (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)$. The unstandardized residuals produced by the regression analysis for each variable was saved in an SPSS data file, and an autocorrelation correlogram and a partial autocorrelation correlogram were created for each set of residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function. Each set of residuals was analyzed for the presence of autocorrelation using this autocorrelation graphing function. For each variable, the highest lag-value of the significant autocorrelations from the partial autocorrelation function (PACF) was selected as the autocorrelation parameter value for the model to be used in an ARIMA analysis. For example, if the correlogram produced by the partial autocorrelation function indicated significant autocorrelation at lags 1, 2, 4 and 7, then 7 would be chosen as the autocorrelation parameter value. Decisions on which parameters to choose were determined by p-values associated with Box-Jenkins statistics provided by SPSS (these statistics estimate the significance of autocorrelation values associated with particular lag values). The residuals from the initial regression analysis were also evaluated for the presence of stationarity. The test used to detect stationarity was to correlate the residuals with the variable $T$; significant correlations would indicate the absence of stationarity, and an appropriate ARIMA model would be fit to the data. The presence of moving averages was determined by visual inspection of the auto-correlation (ACF) and partial auto-correlation (PACF) correlograms of the regression residuals. If a moving average was detected, an appropriate differencing parameter was fit to the ARIMA model. No ARIMA analysis was performed on those variables for which there was no significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. However, an ARIMA analysis was run on those variables whose regression residuals were determined to contain a significant autocorrelational component. The ARIMA analysis was run in SPSS using the same equation as above: $Y(T) = \beta_0 + \beta_1.T + \beta_2.X + \beta_3.XT + \varepsilon$, but with an autocorrelational parameter included in the model. Residuals derived from the ARIMA analysis were saved to an SPSS file. $R^2$ values and F-statistics for the linear regression and ARIMA models were calculated from the SPSS output. Both the simple regression analyses and the ARIMA analyses produced ANOVA tables that indicated which components of the equation ($T$, $X$ and/or $XT$) significantly accounted for explained variance. To determine if there was a lead-lag relationship between alliance variables and outcome variables, the analysis followed the steps of the Haugh-Box procedure as described by Cook et al. (1980, p.123): “(1) determine the ARIMA(p,d,q) model of $X_t$, using the customary identification-estimation-diagnosis procedures and then prewhiten $X_t$ by its own ARIMA model to obtain the estimated white noise series, $\hat{a}X_t$; (2) likewise determine the ARIMA(p,d,q) model of $Y_t$, and prewhiten $Y_t$ by its own ARIMA model to obtain the estimated white noise series, $\hat{a}Y_t$; (3) cross-correlate the residual series, $\hat{a}X$ and $\hat{a}Y$." The cross-correlational function in SPSS was applied to the residuals of the variables hypothesized to have a lead-lag relationship, using the residuals of the regression analyses or the residuals of the ARIMA analyses (for those variables in which autocorrelation was detected in the original regression residuals). The analysis was run up to lag 5 only (-5 to +5, including zero), which required a total of 11 correlations for each variable. Cross-correlational r-values, and the associated standard error were produced in the SPSS output, with associated lag values to indicate the direction of possible causation or influence. Given that the analysis of each variable required 11 correlational analyzes, a Bonferroni correction was applied to the data. With a present alpha level of .10 for the cross-correlational analysis, r-values were only considered significant at $p<.01$. Finally, a meta-analytical procedure as described by Rosenthal and Rosnow (1991) was applied to the cross-correlational results from all subjects, to determine possible effect sizes for positive, negative and zero lags. Only cross-correlational r-statistics for lag-values found to be significant (for at least one subject) were evaluated in the meta-analysis. Thus, for example, if the cross-correlational analysis that was run up to lag 5 on the hypothesized relationship between OQ-SD and IDRX produced a significant rstatistic at lag = 1 for any particular subject, then the r-statistics from all subjects for this relationship at lag = 1 would be used to estimate an effect size. All cross-correlational r-values were first converted to Fisher’s z-values and then summed. R-statistics were omitted for those subjects whose graphs indicated a clear lack of variance for either variable in the hypothesized relationship of interest. The summed Fisher’s z-values were then divided by the number of subjects used to provide the r-statistics, in order to calculate the mean Fisher z-value. The resulting mean z-values were then converted to r-values as estimators of effect size for each particular relationship. CHAPTER III RESULTS Overview The results chapter contains sections for each subject. Every section contains 12 graphs, one for each variable, plotting its value at each time point in the baseline phase and the treatment phase. Spearman’s Rho and empirically derived probability values (derived using Borckardt’s Simulation Method as described in the Methodology chapter) are presented for each variable as an initial check for treatment effects – significant negative Rho-values are associated with significant decreases across the treatment phase relative to baseline, while significant positive Rho-values are similarly associated with significant increases. Linear regression and ARIMA analyses were run on the variables of interest. Both the simple regression analyses and the ARIMA analyses produced ANOVA tables that indicated which components of the equation (T, X and/or XT) significantly accounted for explained variance. A summary of the results from the appropriate ANOVA tables for each variable is presented in each section. Finally, the cross-correlational function in SPSS was applied to the residuals of all the variables, using the residuals of the regression analyses or the residuals of the ARIMA analyses (for those variables in which autocorrelation was detected in the original regression residuals). The Pearson-r statistic, and the associated standard error from the SPSS output are presented in each results section for all statistically significant cross-correlations. The lag value is also included to indicate the direction of possible causation or influence. The first subject, Ailish, provided data across a baseline of 14 time-points and a treatment phase of 22 time-points (7 weeks and 11 weeks respectively). There were no missing data. Figures 1-4 display, respectively, her self-ratings of symptom distress, interpersonal relationship functioning, social functioning and an overall measure of distress as assessed by the OQ-45. Figures 5 and 6 display, respectively, her self-ratings of depression as assessed by the BDI and her self-ratings of anxiety as assessed by the BAI. Figures 7-12 display her self-ratings of components of therapeutic alliance; namely, confident collaboration, confident collaboration scale 2, goal & task agreement, bond, dedication as a patient, and idealization of the therapeutic relationship, respectively. The subject’s mean symptom scores (with standard deviations in brackets) at baseline were OQ-SD= 31.71 (7.99), OQ-IR= 13.36 (1.29), OQ-SR= 10.86 (2.26), OQ-TOT= 55.93 (9.42), BDI= 15.71 (3.97), and BAI= 5.36 (1.99). Mean symptom scores in the treatment phase were OQ-SD= 25.59 (3.27), OQ-IR= 12.77 (1.24), OQ-SR= 9 (1.62), OQ-TOT= 47.36 (4.52), BDI= 14.41 (1.97), and BAI= 4.14 (1.32). The subject’s mean expected alliance scores at baseline were CCOL= 28.21 (1.57), COL2= 40.86 (3.91), GOAL= 21 (1.96), BOND= 15.64 (1.72), DEDP= 31.93 (2.58), and IDRX= 32.43 (1.40). Mean alliance scores in the treatment phase were CCOL= 26.32 (2.18), COL2= 39.77 (1.28), GOAL= 21.82 (1.37), BOND= 13.86 (1.87), DEDP= 31.82 (0.83), and IDRX= 33.86 (1.14).

An initial analysis of treatment effects was conducted using Borckardt’s Simulation Method. The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in Table 1. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 14 points in the baseline phase and 22 points in the treatment phase for each variable. The following equation was used for a regression analysis of each variable of interest: \[ Y_{(T)} = \beta_0 + \beta_1 T + \beta_2 X + \beta_3 XT + \varepsilon \] where \( Y_{(T)} \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For this subject, Anna, the sequential range of 36 values for \( T \) were (-13, -12, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., 21, 22) with -13 corresponding to the first data point, -12 corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 14 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 22 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 14 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 22 points in the treatment phase were (1, 2, ..., 21, 22). The autocorrelation correlogram and partial autocorrelation correlogram created for each set of regression residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function indicated the presence of significant autocorrelation for several variables. Table 2 displays the ARIMA model parameters for those variables that were found to have significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. The parameter value given in these models represents the lag-value of the highest-lagged significant autocorrelation. Model parameters were omitted for those variables in which no autocorrelation was found present.

An initial analysis of treatment effects was conducted using Borckardt’s Simulation Method. The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in table 6. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 9 points in the baseline phase and 28 points in the treatment phase for each variable. The following equation, as described at the beginning of this chapter, was used for a regression analysis of each variable of interest: \[ Y_{(T)} = \beta_0 + \beta_1 T + \beta_2 X + \beta_3 XT + \varepsilon \] where \( T \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For this patient, the sequential range of 37 values for \( T \) were (-8, -7, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., 27, 28) with -8 corresponding to the first data point, -7 corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 9 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 28 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 9 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 28 points in the treatment phase were (1, 2, ..., 27, 28). The autocorrelation correlogram and partial autocorrelation correlogram created for each set of regression residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function indicated the presence of significant autocorrelation for several variables.

An initial analysis of treatment effects was conducted using Borckardt’s Simulation Method. The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in table 11. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 13 points in the baseline phase and 44 points in the treatment phase for each variable. The following equation, as described at the beginning of this chapter, was used for a regression analysis of each variable of interest: \[ Y(T) = \beta_0 + \beta_1 T + \beta_2 X + \beta_3 XT + \varepsilon \] where \( T \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For this patient, the sequential range of 57 values for \( T \) were (-12, -11, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., 43, 44) with -12 corresponding to the first data point, -11 corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 13 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 44 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 13 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 44 points in the treatment phase were (1, 2, ..., 43, 44). The autocorrelation correlogram and partial autocorrelation correlogram created for each set of regression residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function indicated the presence of significant autocorrelation for several variables. Table 12 displays the ARIMA model parameters for those variables that were found to have significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals.

The $R^2$ statistics, F statistics and associated probability values were calculated using the sums of squares and degrees of freedom from the regression analysis. For those variables for which an ARIMA analysis was used, the residual sum of squares and the degrees of freedom were derived from the ARIMA model. parameters were omitted for those variables in which no autocorrelation was found present. An $R^2$ statistic, F statistic and an associated probability value, derived from the linear regression analysis, were given for each variable without significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. For those variables with significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals, these statistics were calculated from the ARIMA analysis. The presence of stationarity in the data was ascertained by correlating the regression residuals for each variable with the time variable t. No significant r-values were obtained, indicating the presence of stationarity. Table 13 displays the probabilities associated with the t-ratio statistics obtained for $\beta$-coefficients in either the ARIMA equations or the regression equations. For variables on which only a regression analysis was performed, no probability value is given for the ARIMA component. A cross-correlational analysis was performed on the residuals produced from either the regression analysis or the ARIMA analysis. Symptom measures – the three factors and total score of the QO45, the BDI and BAI – were cross-correlated with the six factors of the CAS3. Correlational values were included in the following tables if their absolute value was 2 standard errors greater than zero. Tables 14 and 15 display the lag-value and associated r-statistic in parentheses of these correlational values. In both tables, significant predicted correlations are marked in bold. For $N = 57$ data-points, $\alpha = .10$, and with a Bonferroni correction made for 11 correlations, to reach significance the r-value must be >0.338. Significant, but unpredicted, correlations are in italics.

There were missing data for times 28 and 29 – data for these times were calculated as the average of the data from time points 27 and 30. Figures 37-40 display, respectively, her self-ratings of symptom distress, interpersonal relationship functioning, social functioning and an overall measure of distress as assessed by the OQ-45.

An initial analysis of treatment effects was conducted using Borckardt’s Simulation Method. The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in table 16. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 7 points in the baseline phase and 39 points in the treatment phase for each variable. The following equation, as described at the beginning of this chapter, was used for a regression analysis of each variable of interest: \[ Y(T) = \beta_0 + \beta_1.T + \beta_2.X + \beta_3.XT + \varepsilon \] where \( T \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For this patient, the sequential range of 46 values for \( T \) were \((-6, -5, \ldots, -1, 0, 1, \ldots, 38, 39)\) with \(-6\) corresponding to the first data point, \(-5\) corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 7 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 39 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 7 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 39 points in the treatment phase were \((1, 2, \ldots, 38, 39)\). The autocorrelation correlogram and partial autocorrelation correlogram created for each set of regression residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function indicated the presence of significant autocorrelation for several variables. Table 17 displays the ARIMA model parameters for those variables that were found to have significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. The parameter value given in these models represents the lag-value of the highest-lagged significant autocorrelation.

The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in table 21. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 10 points in the baseline phase and 30 points in the treatment phase for each variable.

For this patient, the sequential range of 40 values for \( T \) were (-9, -8, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., 29, 30) with -9 corresponding to the first data point, -8 corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 10 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 30 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 10 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 30 points in the treatment phase were (1, 2, ..., 29, 30).

For variables on which only a regression analysis was performed, no probability value is given for the ARIMA component. A cross-correlational analysis was performed on the residuals produced from either the regression analysis or the ARIMA analysis. Symptom measures – the three factors and total score of the QO45, the BDI and BAI – were cross-correlated with the six factors of the CAS3. Correlational values were included in the following tables if their absolute value was 2 standard errors greater than zero. Tables 24 and 25 display the lag-value and associated r-statistic in parentheses of these correlational values. In both tables, significant predicted correlations are marked in bold. For $N = 40$ data-points, $\alpha = .10$, and with a Bonferroni correction made for 11 correlations, to reach significance the r-value must be >0.403. Significant, but unpredicted, correlations are in italics.

An initial analysis of treatment effects was conducted using Borckardt’s Simulation Method. The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in table 26. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 7 points in the baseline phase and 40 points in the treatment phase for each variable. The following equation, as described at the beginning of this chapter, was used for a regression analysis of each variable of interest: \[ Y(T) = \beta_0 + \beta_1.T + \beta_2.X + \beta_3.XT + \varepsilon \] where \( T \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For this patient, the sequential range of 47 values for \( T \) were (-6, -5, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., 39, 40) with -6 corresponding to the first data point, -5 corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 7 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 40 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 7 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 40 points in the treatment phase were (1, 2, ..., 29, 30). The autocorrelation correlogram and partial autocorrelation correlogram created for each set of regression residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function indicated the presence of significant autocorrelation for several variables. Table 27 displays the ARIMA model parameters for those variables that were found to have significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. The parameter value given in these models represents the lag-value of the highest-lagged significant autocorrelation.

An initial analysis of treatment effects was conducted using Borckardt’s Simulation Method. The autocorrelation parameter, Spearman Rho-values, associated probabilities and effect sizes are presented in table 36. All probability values were obtained by running 10,000 iterations. There were 7 points in the baseline phase and 26 points in the treatment phase for each variable. The following equation, as described at the beginning of this chapter, was used for a regression analysis of each variable of interest: \[ Y(T) = \beta_0 + \beta_1.T + \beta_2.X + \beta_3.XT + \varepsilon \] where \( T \) is the value of the variable of interest at time \( T \). For this patient, the sequential range of 33 values for \( T \) were (-6, -5, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., 25, 26) with -6 corresponding to the first data point, -5 corresponding to the second data point, etc. The corresponding first 7 values of \( X \) were all 0, i.e., 0 for all baseline points, and 1 for each of the remaining 26 points in the treatment phase. The corresponding first 7 values of \( XT \) were also all 0, while the sequential range of values for the 26 points in the treatment phase were (1, 2, ..., 41, 42). The autocorrelation correlogram and partial autocorrelation correlogram created for each set of regression residuals using the SPSS autocorrelation graphing function indicated the presence of significant autocorrelation for several variables. Table 37 displays the ARIMA model parameters for those variables that were found to have significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. The parameter value given in these models represents the lag-value of the highest-lagged significant autocorrelation.

The $R^2$ statistics, F statistics and associated probability values were calculated using the sums of squares and degrees of freedom from the regression analysis. For those variables for which an ARIMA analysis was used, the residual sum of squares and the degrees of freedom were derived from the ARIMA model. parameters were omitted for those variables in which no autocorrelation was found present. An $R^2$ statistic, F statistic and an associated probability value, derived from the linear regression analysis, were given for each variable without significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals. For those variables with significant autocorrelation in the regression residuals, these statistics were calculated from the ARIMA analysis. The presence of stationarity in the data was ascertained by correlating the regression residuals for each variable with the time variable t. No significant r-values were obtained, indicating the presence of stationarity. Table 38 displays the probabilities associated with the t-ratio statistics obtained for $\beta$-coefficients in either the ARIMA equations or the regression equations. For variables on which only a regression analysis was performed, no probability value is given for the ARIMA component. A cross-correlational analysis was performed on the residuals produced from either the regression analysis or the ARIMA analysis. Symptom measures – the three factors and total score of the QO45, the BDI and BAI – were cross-correlated with the six factors of the CAS3. Correlational values were included in the following tables if their absolute value was 2 standard errors greater than zero. Tables 39 and 40 display the lag-value and associated r-statistic in parentheses of these correlational values. In both tables, significant predicted correlations are marked in bold. For $N = 33$ data-points, $\alpha = .10$, and with a Bonferroni correction made for 11 correlations, to reach significance the r-value must be >0.443. Significant, but unpredicted, correlations are in italics.

Table 41 presents a summary of the significant results obtained for the therapeutic alliance factor, Confident Collaboration (CCOL), across all subjects. For five subjects there was a significant effect for treatment on either the mean level or the slope of the CCOL factor, beyond the effect of auto-regression (if present) or baseline slope. A binomial test with an expected proportion of non-significant treatment components equal to 0.25, indicated that the number of subjects with one or more significant treatment effect components was more than would be expected by chance alone ($p = .027$). The mean effect size was $-1.44$.

For six subjects there was a significant effect for treatment on either the mean level or the slope of the GOAL factor, beyond the effect of auto-regression (if present) or baseline slope.

A summary of the significant results obtained across all subjects for the therapeutic alliance factor, Patient Dedication (DEDP) is presented in Table 45. In the case of four subjects there was a significant effect for treatment on either the mean level or the slope of the DEDP factor, beyond the effect of auto-regression (if present) or baseline slope.

For 4 subjects there was a significant effect for treatment on either the mean level or the slope of the IDRX factor, beyond the effect of auto-regression (if present) or baseline slope. A binomial test with an expected proportion of non-significant treatment components equal to 0.25, indicated that the number of subjects with one or more significant treatment effect components was no more than would be expected by chance alone ($p = .114$).

Note (2): Results from subject 4, Deirdre, and subject 5, Elaine, were omitted because of lack of variability in IDRX. Regarding the frequency of significant slope parameters in either the baseline or treatment phase, a series of binomial tests indicated that there were no more significant slope parameters than would be expected by chance. Four of eight subjects had no significant change in slope in either phase (as indicated by non-significant slope parameters) for the variables CCOL, COL2, GOAL, DEDP and IDRX ($p = .114$). For the variable BOND, five of eight subjects had no significant change in slope in either phase. In analyzing across all eight subjects, of the 26 lead-lag relationships hypothesized to exist between the alliance subscales and outcome measures, 14 such relationships were found to include at least one significant cross-correlational $r$-statistic, somewhere between the lag-values of +5 and -5. Within these 14 relationships, there were a total of 28 significant cross-correlations, but 4 of these cross-correlation were dropped from any further consideration because of a lack of variance in that particular alliance factor for that particular subject. These 4 omitted cross-correlations were OQSD $\rightarrow$ IDRX (Lag = 1), OQ-Total $\rightarrow$ IDRX (Lag = 1) and BAI $\leftrightarrow$ IDRX (Lag = 0) from subject 5, Elaine; and OQIR $\rightarrow$ IDRX (Lag = 1) from subject 4, Deirdre. For both subjects, there was nearly zero variance on the IDRX subscale. Omission of these four correlations resulted in 12 significant lead-lag relationships consisting of 5 significant negative-lag correlations, 5 significant zero-lag correlations and 14 positive-lag correlations. Two subjects had a significant cross-correlation for the same relationship (BAI $\rightarrow$ DEDP) at the same lag-value (Lag = 5), resulting in 23 distinct lag-values. All cross-correlational $r$-values for those 23 specific lag-values and their associated variable relationship were converted to Fisher’s Z for each subject. A mean Fisher’s Z was then obtained and converted to an effect size estimate (r). Of the 23 specific lag relationships thus analyzed, nine produced an effect size $r > .10$ (i.e., a small effect size). These nine relationships with their associated lags are presented in Table 47. Arrows between variables in the first column indicate the direction of the relationship, as do the signs of the lags with positive lags indicating that an alliance measure is being predicted by an outcome measure. $\Sigma Z$ is the sum of the Fisher’s Z-values and N represents the number of subjects used in the analysis. **Table 47:** Significant effect-sizes for variable relationships at specific lags | Lag | $\Sigma Z$ | N | R | |--------------|------------|-----|-------| | $OQSD \leftrightarrow IDRX$ | 0 | -0.676 | 7$^1$ | -0.113 | | $OQIR \rightarrow DEDP$ | +4 | -1.071 | 8 | -0.133 | | $OQSR \rightarrow COL2$ | +2 | -1.021 | 7$^2$ | -0.145 | | $OQSR \leftrightarrow GOAL$ | 0 | 0.905 | 8 | 0.112 | | $OQSR \rightarrow DEDP$ | +1 | -0.876 | 8 | -0.109 | | $OQSR \leftarrow IDRX$ | -1 | 0.653 | 6$^1$ | 0.109 | | $OQTOT \leftrightarrow IDRX$ | 0 | -0.845 | 6$^1$ | -0.140 | | $OQTOT \rightarrow IDRX$ | +1 | -0.950 | 6$^1$ | -0.157 | | $BAI \rightarrow DEDP$ | +1 | -1.105 | 8 | -0.137 | Note (1): Cross-correlational r-statistics for relationships involving the alliance subscale IDRX were not included in calculating $\Sigma Z$ for subject 4, Deirdre, and subject 5, Elaine, because of lack of variability. Note (2): Cross-correlational r-statistics for relationships involving the alliance subscales CCOL, COL2 & BOND were not included in calculating $\Sigma Z$ for subject 6, Fiona, because of lack of variability. Ailish presented with a primary complaint of “chronic moodiness” and general anxiety. Depression, anger and low self-esteem were typical experiences for her. She relied on her considerable intellectual resources to cope with these feelings, but often to the detriment of free expression of her experience. The therapist sought to focus on helping alleviate her depressed mood, and to address unmet dependency needs and feelings of loss and separation. The data on Ailish extended over a 7-week baseline and 11 weeks of therapy. Prior to beginning therapy, her mean BDI total score was 15.71 (mild) and her mean BAI score was 5.36 (minimal); both of which were surprisingly low for a presentation of Dysthymic disorder and Generalized Anxiety. Also none of her scores on the OQ-45 were in the clinical range. A quick scan of Table 1 for an initial evaluation of treatment effects indicates that there was a significant reduction in symptom distress and overall functioning as measured by the OQ-45. However, the decrease in overall functioning (OQ-Tot) was approximately 8.5 points, far short of the reliable change index of 15 points estimated Lambert et al. (1998). Nor was there a hoped for reduction in either depression or anxiety. Rather, the majority of significant decreases came in the realm of alliance rather than symptomatology, with significant decreases in all alliance factors, except Goal and Task Agreement, which did not seem to change to any significant degree, and Idealized Relationship, which significantly increased. Thus there was seemingly an effect for treatment on alliance in five out of six cases, supporting rejection of the null hypothesis of no change in alliance across the two phases. It is plausible that the decrease in alliance reflected either lack of confidence and comfort with the therapist (which could speak to a use of intellectualized defenses such as disparagement and emotional distancing) or a response to lack of improvement. Only two of the models applied to all 12 variables were not a good fit: the regression model for the outcome measure OQ-IR and the ARIMA model for the alliance measure DEDP. Visual analysis of these variables offer little clear insight into why this models were not good fits, although there may be a sine-wave periodicity to the OQ-IR variable that is difficult to ascertain without a longer data-stream. Also the outlying point in the baseline phase for DEDP at time-point 9 is strikingly out of place with the rest of the data – one can only speculate that perhaps after four weeks of waiting there was a experience of resentment or disappointment with the imagined therapist. It is informative to consider the components of the various models that were responsible for change in alliance factors. In four of the five cases in which there was a significant Spearman Rho indicating a change in alliance with the introduction of treatment, there was also a significant treatment parameter of change (either a change in mean or slope) explaining additional variance beyond that accounted for by either autoregressive or baseline slope parameters. Furthermore, a fifth variable, GOAL, despite producing a non-significant Spearman Rho, contained significant treatment parameters in its ARIMA model. Thus, the data from this first subject lend strong support to a rejection of the null hypothesis of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy, suggesting that there is a “real” rather than transference component to therapeutic alliance. Also, in all but one case (DEDP), there was a significant slope component in the treatment or baseline phase, indicating rejection of the second null hypothesis, for five alliance factors, that alliance would stabilize rapidly. Finally, in considering lead-lag relationships between alliance factors and outcome measures, there were several cross-correlational r-values that were greater than 2 standard errors (SE), with a predominance of correlations appearing significant for the Confident Collaboration 2 alliance factor. However, with a Bonferroni correction applied to adjust for the 11 correlations necessary to evaluate across 5 lags, only 3 correlations remained significant. These were Confident Collaboration 2 (COL2) predicting social functioning on the OQ-45 (OQSR) at lag 2 (1 week interval), and Patient Dedication being predicted by interpersonal functioning (OQIR) at lag 4 (2 week interval) and by anxiety (BAI) at lag 1 (½ week interval). The relationship between COL2 was OQSR was positive, indicating that as Ailish’s confidence in the therapist declined across treatment so did her functioning in social settings. Why this relationship was evident in social settings only and not interpersonal experiences is difficult to explain. Although it is purely speculation, from a clinical perspective perhaps failing confidence in the therapist necessitated greater involvement in other existing relationships, thus offsetting any potential decline in the arena of interpersonal functioning. After all, a patient’s hope in psychotherapy is the hope that a new and different form of relationship can provide help; if that new relationship is discouraging then one solution may be to work harder on pre-existing relationships. The relationship between interpersonal functioning (OQIR) and patient dedication (DEDP) was negative, indicating that as Ailish’s interpersonal problems worsened, her dedication to therapy increased at a delayed point two weeks later. If her interpersonal functioning improved then her dedication to therapy lessened. A similar relationship held for anxiety (BAI) and DEDP: as Ailish’s anxiety decreased, dedication to therapy increased 3-4 days later which can also be understood as her resistance decreasing (e.g., sharing important things with her therapist rather than keeping them to herself). In conclusion, the data collected from Ailish’s course of treatment indicated that (1) with the exception of Patient Dedication, alliance does change in response to the introduction of therapy; (2) it does not remain stable over time; and (3) there are some significant lead-lag relationships between alliance and outcome; namely, that her confidence in the therapist is positively related to social functioning, and that her dedication to the therapy is increased as her interpersonal functioning and/or anxiety improve. Brianna presented to the clinic seeking relief from primarily depressive symptoms, and also some anxiety symptoms. With the recent death of her mother, she was also seeking help for deciding on a new direction in her life, but was meeting considerable resistance from relatives. Her prior experience of therapy had been sporadic and her commitment in the past was unclear. She also appeared to have clear goals and expectations for the therapy. Her baseline period was 4½ weeks and her treatment phase was 14 weeks. Before the introduction of therapy, her mean BDI score was 7.11 (minimal) and her mean BAI score was 6.11 (minimal), which, akin to subject one, were lower than expected for a clinical presentation of depression and anxiety. On only three occasions during baseline, did her BAI score reach the mild range of anxiety, her BDI score remained minimal at all time points. Given her family difficulties, elevations were expected on interpersonal and social functioning scales (OQIR & OQSR). Her mean OQIR score at baseline was 14.33, which is close to the clinically significant score of 15 (indeed, 6 of nine baseline points were at or above this clinical cut-off point). Her mean OQSR score at baseline was 12.44, which was above the clinically significant cut-off of 12. After the introduction of therapy, OQIR improved by dropping to a mean of 11.96 and the OQSR also improved by dropping to a mean of 8.30, each improving by approximately 2 and 4 points respectively. These improvements, however, were less than the reliable change index of 15 points. Table 6 indicated a statistically significant improvement in social functioning and a near-significant improvement ($p = 0.058$) in interpersonal functioning. In fact there were significant improvements in all other symptom measures, despite generally non-clinical levels of distress reported by Brianna prior to therapy. Despite a mean decrease in only one alliance scale, Patient Dedication, only two alliance scales appeared to change significantly with the introduction of therapy – Bond (BOND) and Idealized Relationship (IDRX); both increasing with the introduction of therapy. Thus, for four of the six alliance factors, the initial statistical analysis suggested retention of the null hypothesis of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy. However, a closer examination of the components of the models applied to the six alliance variables indicated that for five alliance scales, there was a significant treatment parameter. There were significant mean level changes in the treatment for both Confident Collaboration scales, for Bond and for Idealized Relationship scales. There was also a significant slope change in the treatment phase for Patient Dedication. Only Goal and Task Agreement failed to change with the introduction of therapy. Thus, as with subject one, for a clear majority (5 out of 6) of alliance factors, there is a significant change with the introduction of therapy, again indicating a rejection of the null hypothesis of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy. Contrary to subject one, however, an analysis of the data from Brianna strongly suggests retention of the null hypothesis that alliance is stable over time. The only variable for which there was a significant slope parameter in either the baseline or treatment phase was Patient Dedication. For four of the remaining five alliance scales, even though there were significant changes in mean levels with the introduction of therapy, there was no significant trend in either phase (in the case of the fifth measure, GOAL, mean change and slope parameters for the treatment phase were insignificant). Therefore, even though therapy may create a mean increase/improvement in alliance, its impact does not change over time. Although there were some cross-correlational statistics observed that were greater than 2 standard errors, none were significant when a Bonferroni correction was applied. Not only does such a result lend itself to retention of the null hypothesis of no time-contingent relationship between alliance and symptom change, it also indicates a lack of any relationship between alliance and outcome for this subject. Any attempts on the therapist’s behalf to facilitate change through an initial focus on the alliance would likely be misguided – given that Brianna had set goals when she began therapy and she made her needs known, clear direction and a solution-focused approach would likely entail quick short-term results that were satisfying to the patient. Thus, Brianna’s data indicated that (1) with the exception of Goal and Task Agreement, alliance changes with the introduction of therapy; (2) alliance appears to remain stable over time, once the effect of therapy on the mean level of alliance is accounted for; and (3) there is no statistically significant time contingent nor simultaneous relationship between alliance and symptom change. Ciara presented to the clinic looking for ways to develop better coping skills and to set better boundaries with others. Although she reported some close friendships, she was careful to keep a distance in relationships. She also had an extensive history of depression and sought relief from her depressive symptoms. Data was collected for 6½ weeks prior to therapy and for a further 22 weeks during therapy. None of Ciara’s outcome measures taken prior to therapy suggested clinical level of distress. The two symptom measures closest to clinical significance were those assessing interpersonal and social functioning (OQIR & OQSR respectively). Her mean OQIR score during the baseline phase was 13.23 (SD = 2) compared to a clinical cutoff score of 15; scores at four time-point out of fourteen total baseline points were equal to or greater than 15. Her mean OQSR was 10.61 (SD = 1.60) and for five time-points out of fourteen, her OQSR score was equal or greater than the clinical cutoff score of 12. Results in Table 11 indicate that only symptom distress (OQ-SD) and OQ-Total scores responded significantly to treatment. All six alliance scales, however, significantly decreased with the introduction of treatment, which is initial support for rejection of the null hypothesis that alliance does not change in response to the introduction of treatment. All six models for the alliance scores were ARIMA models and all were significant fits to the data. However, only three of the variables, COL2, GOALS and DEDP, had a significant treatment parameter in the model that indicated an effect for treatment beyond that of the autoregressive (AR) component. Thus for the remaining alliance factors, CCOL, BOND, and IDRX, any observed decrease in alliance during treatment (as suggested by the results of the initial Simulation Method analysis) was accounted for by the AR component and for these alliance factors, we fail to reject the null hypothesis that alliance does not change with the introduction of therapy. Furthermore, in only two cases, GOAL and DEDP, was there a significant slope parameter for either the baseline or treatment phase. Thus, for the remaining four alliance scales, we fail to reject the null hypothesis that alliance is stable over time. There were two significant time-contingent relationships detected, once Bonferroni corrections had been made. Social functioning (OQSR) predicted the alliance factor Confident Collaboration at lag 2; the correlation was negative. Thus as social functioning improved, a week later Ciara’s confidence in the therapist correspondingly decreased. Perhaps this reflected a pattern whereby a growing sense of confidence in her own ability to function socially at work or school made the work of the therapist appear less necessary or appropriate. Depression scores (BDI) predicted the idealization of the relationship (IDRX) at lag 4; the relationship was positive. Thus as Ciara became less depressed, 2 weeks later she would report a lessened sense of mutual collaboration with the therapist and an increased tendency to disagree with the therapist. The literature has indicated that some degree of devaluing the therapist is healthy and conducive to positive change – the direction of the relationship detected in Ciara’s case, however, suggests that it may not be conducive to positive change but rather reflective of change already occurring (Hatcher & Barends, 1996). Ciara initially sought help in setting appropriate boundaries with friends, and it would seem that if she is to avail of the opportunity to practice doing so with the therapist, the therapy must first work to alleviate her depression. Thus, overall, the data from Ciara indicate that for the six alliance factors (1) alliance changes in response to the introduction of treatment in only three cases (COL2, GOAL, & DEDP); (2) alliance fails to remain stable across time in only two cases (GOAL & DEDP); and (3) there are two significant time contingent relationships between alliance and symptoms, namely, that as Ciara’s social functioning improves her confidence in the therapist decreases and that as her depression improves, she idealizes the therapist less. Deirdre Deirdre presented with complaints of dysthymia, as well an experience of relationship as “draining,” because she felt that she was always listening to other people’s problems. The therapy focused on her general lack of motivation, feelings of indifference and indecision. The short-term goal of therapy was to reduce her depressive symptoms. Deirdre was anxious about participating in therapy and so the therapist strived to establish a solid alliance, and specifically a strong bond, so that the patient might feel safer in the therapy. Data was collected across $3\frac{1}{2}$ weeks prior to the start of therapy and for $19\frac{1}{2}$ weeks during therapy. During the baseline phase, Deirdre’s symptom measures were all significantly elevated. Her depression score on the BDI was 26.57, placing her in the moderate range of depression, and her anxiety score on the BAI was 14, placing her in the mild range. All of her scores on the OQ-45 were in the clinically significant range, indicating elevated symptom distress and difficulties in interpersonal and social functioning. There was little improvement in these scores with the introduction of therapy; and none of them moved out of the clinical range or into a less severe category of distress. Table 16 shows only one significant improvement in the treatment phase and that was for social functioning (OQSR). A visual analysis of the graph of the alliance factor, Idealized Relationship, indicated an extreme lack of variance, so this variable was excluded from consideration in later statistical analyses. Table 16 indicated that there were highly significant decreases in the remaining five alliance variables with the introduction of treatment, due in large part to minimal variance in alliance scores during the baseline period. The presence of significant change in five of six cases, strongly suggested rejection of the null hypothesis that alliance does not change with the introduction of therapy. However, when specific parameters were considered, only the models of three variables (CCOL, COL2, and GOAL) contained significant treatment phase parameters. Thus the null hypothesis was only rejected for these three alliance factors. Also the null hypothesis that alliance was stable over time was retained for all six alliance factors (including IDRX because of the clear lack of variance), as no model contained significant slope parameters for either the baseline or treatment phases. With IDRX excluded from the analysis due to lack of variance, two significant lead-lag relationships were detected between alliance measures and symptom measures. Social functioning (OQSR) predicted the alliance factor bond (BOND) at lag 1, and the two variables were negatively correlated. Thus, as Deirdre improved her social functioning her sense of attachment to the therapist increased 3-4 days later. This is a strikingly interesting result as the therapist deliberately aimed to improve the bond in therapy, yet doing so apparently had no causative effect on symptoms (including an expected effect on reducing anxiety); rather it was an initial change in a symptom area (social functioning) that seemingly brought about a change in the therapeutic bond. Patient dedication (DEDP) predicted interpersonal functioning (OQIR) at lag 1, and this relationship was negatively correlated. As Deirdre felt more engaged in the therapy and became less resistant to the process of therapy, 3-4 days later she reaped the benefits in terms of improved interpersonal functioning. The observed effect of increased engagement in therapy appears to support the claim that a focus on the in-session, “here-and-now” process has positive therapeutic effects beyond the immediate therapy session. Deirdre’s data indicated that (1) alliance changed in response to treatment for three alliance variables (CCOL, COL2, & GOAL); (2) alliance remained stable across time for all five alliance variables; and (3) if Deirdre’s social functioning improved, then her sense of attachment to the therapist later improved, and if she became more engaged and active in therapy her interpersonal functioning later improved. **Elaine** Elaine presented to the clinic with a desire to develop greater emotional stability and greater control over aspects of her bipolar disorder (she presented with depressive symptoms). She also wished to develop better coping skills and to understand her recently developed desire for increasing social isolation. At the time of presentation she was experiencing interpersonal difficulties with her daughter. She reported a pattern of initial idealization of men in relationships followed by harsh disappointment. Thus, it is important to note that her therapist was male. Data was collected from Elaine for a period of 5 weeks before therapy and a period of 15 weeks during therapy. Before therapy began, Elaine’s mean depression score on the BDI was 43.6, placing her in the severe range, and her anxiety score on the BAI was 12.1, placing her in the mild range. All her scores on the OQ-45 were elevated well above the clinical cut-off points. During the treatment phase, her mean measure of symptom distress (OQSD) dropped by approximately 22 points to below the clinical cut-off point; this decrease was greater than the suggested reliable change index of 15, signifying clinically meaningful change. There was little change in interpersonal functioning (OQIR) and social functioning (OQSR) and they both remained in the clinical range. Her mean depression score dropped to 26.18, moving her from the severe range to the moderate range of depression. Her mean anxiety score dropped to 2, placing her in the minimal range of anxiety. Thus, there were important therapeutic gains in the areas of anxiety and depression and general symptoms, but little change in interpersonal or social functioning. There was an extreme lack of variance in her idealization of the therapist (as can be seen in Figure 60). She entered therapy with a stable and extremely high IDRX score, but fortunately her predicted disappointment (as experienced in previous relationships with idealized males) did not occur during therapy and her IDRX remained unvarying throughout therapy. This variable will be excluded from further analyses. Table 21 shows that there was a significant decrease in four alliance factors: CCOL, COL2, GOALS, and BOND; and a significant increase in Patient Dedication (DEDP) with the introduction of therapy. For these five alliance factors, the presence of significant change in alliance suggests rejection of the null hypothesis that alliance does not change with the introduction of treatment. Analysis of the model parameters indicates that there are significant treatment parameters for four alliance factors: the exceptions were CCOL and IDRX (which displayed zero variance during treatment). Thus, for four out of six alliance variables, the models indicate that alliance does change with the introduction of treatment, thus indicating rejection of the null hypothesis for those alliance factors. Significant slope parameters were only detected for two alliance variables: GOAL and DEDP, indicating rejection of the null hypothesis that alliance is stable over time in only two of six possible cases. Three significant cross-correlational statistics were obtained. A negative correlation between anxiety (BAI) and therapeutic bond (BOND) was detected at lag zero, indicating simultaneous covariance, rather than a time-contingent relationship between these variables. These variables co-varied in such a manner that as anxiety was improving, Elaine’s perception of the therapeutic bond was also improving. It is important to stress that there is no implied directional causality in this relationship – it is more likely that a third mediating variable was creating simultaneous change in these variables. In two cases, patient dedication was predicted by earlier symptom change. Social functioning (OQSR) was predictive of patient dedication at lag. This relationship was a negative correlation, indicating that as social functioning improved, 3-4 days later patient dedication increased, so that Elaine became less resistant in therapy and experienced a greater sense of collaboration with the therapist. Anxiety as assessed by BAI scores also predicted dedication, but at lag 5 and with a positive correlation. Thus, as anxiety decreased, $2\frac{1}{2}$ weeks later patient dedication also decreased. Lessening of anxiety was thus associated with a later increase in resistance to therapy. It appears that in Elaine’s case, a certain amount of anxiety was likely to contribute to progress in therapy – supporting the notion that patients benefit from a certain minimal amount of distress if they are to actively engage in therapy. The data from Elaine indicate that (1) with the exception of confident collaboration (specifically confidence in the therapeutic process rather than the actual therapist) and idealization of the relationship, alliance does change in response to the introduction of therapy; (2) alliance was not stable over time in only two alliance factors: goal and task agreement and patient dedication; and (3) anxiety and therapeutic bond co-vary simultaneously so that as anxiety decreases, the sense of bond increases; as social functioning improves Elaine’s active participation in therapy increases, and as anxiety decreases Elaine becomes less engaged in the therapeutic process. **Fiona** Fiona presented at the clinic seeking alleviation of anxiety and a reduction in the frequency and intensity of her panic attacks. She was also seeking help with interpersonal issues, and wished to better understand a past abusive relationship. Her therapist noted an obsessive-compulsive character style that may have served to bind her anxiety. In addition to focusing on her anxiety and interpersonal concerns, the therapist also aimed to alleviate depressive symptoms and improve Fiona’s self-image. Data was collected over 3½ weeks prior to therapy and 20 weeks of treatment. All of Fiona’s symptoms indicated the absence of clinically significant distress. All of her scores on the OQ-45 were in the sub-clinical range, with only one scale approaching clinical significance. That scale was social functioning, which had a baseline mean of 10.43 (SD = 1.50) and one point in the baseline phase (at time two) above the clinical cut-off point of 12. Her depression as assessed by the BDI was in the minimal range (her mean score was 8) and her anxiety, despite being a presenting concern, was also in the minimal range with a mean baseline score of 2. Results of the initial Simulation Method analysis indicated significant improvement during treatment in social functioning and depression only. Visual analysis of three of Fiona’s alliance factors (CCOL, CCOL2 & BOND) indicated zero variance after the first or second time-point and so these variables were excluded from further statistical analysis. The lack of variance in these factors clearly indicate that the null hypotheses, of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy and the continuing stability of alliance across time, should be retained for these three factors. Inspection of Table 26 indicates a lack of significant change in goal and task agreement (GOAL) with the introduction of treatment; however there was a significant decrease in patient dedication and a significant increase in idealization of the relationship. However, further analysis indicated no significant parameters for baseline slope, treatment mean or treatment slope. Therefore, in Fiona’s case, both null hypotheses of no change in alliance in response to the introduction of therapy and of stability in alliance across time, are unequivocally retained. However, several significant cross-correlational statistics were associated with the three varying alliance factors. The alliance factor Goal and Task Agreement (GOAL) and the measure of social functioning (OQSR) simultaneously co-varied at lag zero, as did Idealized Relationship with both symptom distress (OQSD) and total score (OQ-Total) as assessed by the OQ-45. However, while the relationship between GOAL and OQSR was positive, indicating that improvements in social functioning matched simultaneous decreases in goal and task agreement, the relationship between IDRX and both OQSD OQ-Total was negative. Thus, improvements in symptom distress and overall functioning simultaneously matched Fiona’s increasing sense of helpful collaboration and lack of disagreement with the therapist. The alliance factor, Idealized Relationship, was also predictive of social functioning (OQSR) at a lag value of 1. This relationship was positive, so that as Fiona’s sense of collaboration in the therapy decreased and her sense of disagreement with the therapist increased, her social functioning improved 3-4 days later. Perhaps an increasing sense of self-assertion and diminishing dependency in the therapy promoted similar changes in her social environment. Patient dedication (DEDP) also predicted interpersonal functioning (OQIR) at a lag value of 2. This relationship was negative, so that as Fiona became more actively engaged and open in the therapy, her interpersonal functioning improved one week later. Fiona’s data indicated (1) a retention of the null hypothesis, for all alliance factors, that the introduction of therapy has no effect on perceptions of alliance; (2) a retention of the null hypothesis, for all alliance factors, of stability in alliance across time; and (3) simultaneous covariance between goal and task agreement and social functioning, simultaneous covariance between idealization of the relationship and both symptom distress and general functioning (OQ-Total), decreasing idealization of the relationship predicting later improvement in social functioning, and increased engagement in the therapeutic process predicting later improvement in interpersonal functioning. **Gerald** Gerald sought therapy for help with a long history of social anxiety and depression. He also had a history of impaired social functioning, in terms of an inability to sustain long-term employment. He possessed considerable intelligence but his thinking could become disorganized when he felt himself to be stressed. Due to Gerald’s over-reliance on intellectualization and avoidance as defenses against engagement with others and the expression of emotion, his therapist predicted that the development of a strong, stable alliance would be difficult. Data was collected for 5 weeks prior to therapy and 21 weeks of treatment. The mean scores of all of Gerald’s symptom measures on the OQ-45, were clinically elevated for both the baseline and treatment phase, suggesting relatively intractable and serious dysfunction. A mean score of 15.75 on the BDI, indicated mild depression and a mean score of 5.9 on the BAI indicated minimal anxiety. Table 31 indicates significant improvement in interpersonal functioning (OQIR) and anxiety (BAI) in the treatment phase, but neither change was clinically significant: OQ-IR dropped from 19.7 to 19.15, still remaining in the clinically elevated range; and BAI dropped from 5.9 to 3.79, remaining in the minimal range of anxiety. Table 31 also indicates a significant decrease in goal and task agreement (GOAL) and an increase in patient dedication (DEDP) and idealization of the relationship (IDRX), suggesting a rejection of the null hypothesis of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy for these three alliance variables. However, further analysis of the parameters associated with the models that were fit to these variables produced significant statistics for treatment parameters for all alliance factors, except patient dedication (DEDP). Thus the null hypothesis was rejected for five of six alliance variables. The second null hypothesis of stability in alliance across time was also rejected for the same five alliance factors, and retained only for patient dedication on the basis of no significant slope parameters in the model. Cross-correlational analyses produced three significant relationships between alliance and symptom change. Confident Collaboration 2 (COL2), or Gerald’s confidence in the therapist, positively related to social functioning (OQSR) at lag zero. This indicated that as his confidence in the therapist waned, his social functioning was simultaneously improving. An example of why this might occur is if Gerald self-confidence increased (perhaps a friend was encouraging him) to the point that he felt less need for therapy, sensing that he could help himself more, and simultaneously felt encouraged by his new found confidence to seek out work. This example is purely speculative, of course, but serves to explicate how simultaneous covariance, i.e., lag zero relationships, can be understood clinically. Social functioning (OQSR) was predictive of goal and task agreement (GOAL) at lag 1 and the relationship was positive. This indicated that improvement in social functioning was associated with decreased goal and task agreement 3-4 days later. This pattern is similar to that between OQSR and COL2 except for the lag value, which indicates a time-contingent relationship, whereby changes in social functioning clearly precede changes in goal and task agreement. Gerald’s perception of the therapeutic bond (BOND) was also predictive of changes in anxiety as assessed by the BAI at lag two. This relationship was negative, whereby an increase in the sense of bond or attachment to the therapist entailed a decrease in anxiety one week later. One way to understand this is that the development of a more secure attachment to the therapist created a greater sense of security for the client that may have served as the equivalent of a “secure base” outside of therapy (see Ainsworth, 1982 for a discussion of the concept of secure base and its relation to anxiety in human behavior). Gerald’s data indicated that: (1) the null hypothesis of no change in alliance in response to the introduction of therapy was retained for only one alliance factor, patient dedication; (2) the null hypothesis of stability in alliance scores across time was also retained for the one alliance factor, patient dedication; and (3) there was simultaneous covariance between confidence in the therapist and social functioning; improved social functioning predicted a later decrease in goal and task agreement; and an increased therapeutic bond predicted a later reduction in anxiety. Hilda presented to the clinic with depressive symptoms that appeared to have developed in response to the end of a 3½-year relationship with her boyfriend. Despite being of average intelligence, her therapist noted a tendency towards disorganized thought. Hilda also appeared to have an underdeveloped sense of self and a reduced capacity for independence, although it is unclear whether this was reflective of a long-standing personality style or a transient reaction to the break-up with her boyfriend. Soon after therapy began, she reconciled with her boyfriend and her depressive symptoms began to decrease. The therapist felt the alliance to be insecure and under-developed and the patient abruptly terminated treatment. Hilda’s mean symptom scores for the baseline period indicated marked distress. All her scores on the OQ-45 were significantly above the clinical cut-off point. Her BDI mean score of 21.29 placed in the range of moderate depression, and her mean BAI score of 23.79 placed her in the moderate range of anxiety. During treatment, all of her scores on the OQ-45, with the exception of social functioning, dropped beyond the clinical cut-off point. Symptom distress and total score on the OQ-45 both dropped by more than 15 points, indicating significant clinical improvement. Also social functioning dropped to 12.27 (SD = 3.22), which is close to the clinical cutoff of 12. Her mean BDI score in treatment dropped to 7.04, indicating a change to minimal depression. Her mean BAI score dropped to 10.15, indicating a change to mild anxiety. Table 36 indicates that all of these changes were statistically significant, although inspection of the component responsible for change indicate that the improvement in symptom distress (OQSD) and interpersonal functioning (OQIR) were independent of the effects of treatment. The results of the Simulation Method analysis, presented on Table 36, indicated that there was a significant increase in the alliance factors COL2, GOAL and BOND and a significant decrease in IDRX. However, results from fitting models to the data indicate significant treatment parameters for CCOL, GOALS, DEDP and IDRX. Thus, for the four alliance factors CCOL, GOAL, DEDP and IDRX, the null hypothesis of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy was rejected. Four variables, CCOL, GOAL, DEDP and IDRX contained significant slope parameters in either the baseline or treatment phase and the null hypothesis of stability in alliance across time was rejected for these variables. Six significant time-contingent relationships were detected between alliance and symptom measures. All the cross-correlational values were negative, indicating that decreases in symptoms were associated with improved alliance. Symptom Distress (OQSD) significantly predicted Confident Collaboration (CCOL) at lag 2. As symptom distress lessened (improved), then one week later Hilda’s confidence in the therapeutic process increased. Changes in social functioning (OQSD) significantly predicted Goal and Task Agreement at lag 3. Thus, as social functioning improved, Hilda was more likely to perceive a greater degree of agreement with her therapist over the goals of treatment 1½ weeks later. Changes in anxiety as assessed by the BAI predicted changes in therapeutic bond (BOND) at lag 5, indicating that as anxiety decreased, the sense of attachment and liking for the therapist increased 2½ weeks later. It is possible that less anxiety enabled more trust on Hilda’s behalf; however, it is puzzling as to why the change in alliance occurred 2½ weeks later rather than in the next session. A similar lag of 5 was seen in the significant relationship between anxiety on the BAI and patient dedication (DEDP). In this relationship, as anxiety decreased, Hilda’s active participation in the therapeutic process increased 2½ weeks later. Two symptom measures predicted idealization of the relationship (IDRX) at lag 1. As symptom distress (OQSD) decreased, and also as total distress (OQ-Total) decreased, Hilda experienced a greater sense of collaboration and diminished disagreement with the therapist 3½ days later. Hilda’s data indicate (1) rejection of the null hypothesis of no change in alliance with the introduction of therapy for the four alliance factors CCOL, GOAL, DEDP and IDRX; (2) rejection of the null hypothesis of stability in alliance across time for the four variables CCOL, GOAL, DEDP and IDRX; and (3) decreases in OQSD predicted increases in CCOL, GOAL and IDRX; decreases in BAI predicted increases in BOND and DEDP; and a decrease in OQ-Total predicted an increase in IDRX. General Findings Consideration of the data on a subject-by-subject basis is a fruitful exercise if one wishes to elaborate the clinical understanding of the patient. The results discussed above touched on some possible interactions between alliance and outcome, but moving from subject to subject it is difficult to develop a clear picture of consistent patterns of interaction. Across the eight subjects, the three central hypotheses were retained and rejected for different variables with little apparent consistency. No single parameter was consistently associated with change in any one alliance factor across all subjects. Furthermore, across all subjects, in only one predicted lead-lag relationship, BAI→DEDP, was a significant relationship detected in more than one subject at the exact same lag. In this case both Elaine and Hilda had a lag 5 significant relationship with BAI predicting DEDP $2\frac{1}{2}$ weeks later. Ironically, the r-value of this relationship for Elaine was +.448, while for Hilda it was -.485! The r-value mismatch inherent in this single replicated result is representative of the lack of any clear pattern of results across the subjects. Certainly, one’s respect for the use of single-subject designs in clinical setting settings increases when one sees how much idiographic detail would be lost if the data were simply summed across multiple subjects. However, the disadvantage to a single-subject design is that it can be difficult to discern if a singular result is idiosyncratic to that subject, if it is a statistical artifact or if it can be generalized to other subjects with, for example, the same coping style or a similar profile. on a personality test. It becomes important to know such things when one desires to wed science to practice and apply what was learnt with one patient to future work with others. For that reason, this study also attempted to collate the results of the individual subjects so as to better convey a sense of how well the three various hypotheses fared across all subjects. The first null hypothesis was stated as an expectation of no significant change in the mean or slope of the six alliance factors as a result of the introduction of therapy. Early psychoanalytic literature focused on the distinction between transerential aspects and positive, reality based aspects of a patient’s attachment to the therapist and Zetzel (1956) was the first to use the term therapeutic alliance as something distinct from transference. However, this conceptual distinction has yet to be empirically confirmed. Based on an analysis of the model parameters that accounted for significant change, in the case of single subjects, this null hypothesis was rejected for a particular alliance factor if at least one of the treatment parameters (X or XT) were significant, i.e., indicating a change in mean (X) or slope (XT) with the introduction of therapy. The results of these parameter significance tests across all subjects were presented together in Tables 41 to 46 for each alliance subscale. A binomial test was performed on the ratio of significant combinations of treatment parameters (pertinent to this hypothesis) to non-significant combinations. The results of the six binomial tests indicated that there were more significant treatment parameters for Confident Collaboration, Confident Collaboration 2, and Goal and Task Agreement across all subjects than would be expected by chance alone. This result entailed rejection of the null hypothesis that alliance does not change in relation to the introduction of therapy. However, there were less significant treatment parameters for Bond, Patient Dedication and Idealization of the Relationship across all subjects than would be expected by chance alone, indicating retention of the null hypothesis for these three alliance factors. One interesting implication of this result is that alliance is not a singular construct. Half of the factors that contribute to the construct of alliance appear to be reality-based responses to the therapeutic process, while the other half appear to be less responsive to actual therapy, and potentially more transference-based. However, due to the low number of subjects in the study this result is equivocal because of the reduced sensitivity of the binomial test – the significant results were accounted for by ratios of 5 and 6 out of 8 while all the non-significant results were accounted for a ratios of 4 out of 8 – a difference of only 1 or 2 significant results. A similar problem regarding the low number of subjects is encountered in assessing the generalizability of results related to the second null hypothesis that alliance is stable over time. This hypothesis was also tested through analysis of slope parameters (T and XT) from the models fitted to each of the six alliance variables. If either slope parameter was significant, indicating an increasing or decreasing slope beginning in either the baseline or treatment phase, the null hypothesis was rejected as the alliance measure was changing continuously over time. The slope parameter significance tests from all subjects were presented together in Tables 41 to 46 for each alliance subscale. Again a binomial test was performed on the ratio of significant combinations of treatment parameters (pertinent to this hypothesis) to non-significant combinations. For all alliance factors, there were never more than four significant results across all eight subjects, resulting in consistently non-significant p-values for each variable. Thus, for all alliance measures the null hypothesis of stability in alliance across time was retained. The consistency of low ratios of significant results across all alliance factors increases the confidence that indeed alliance is relatively stable over time. Therefore, at pivotal times in therapy, such as in the initial session, it may be critically important for the therapist to work on impacting the alliance when such an immediate change in mean may be produced. The importance of focusing on sudden drops or jumps in alliance is inherent in the notion that it is the repair of ruptures in alliance that accounts for impact on outcome rather than steady constant work to bring about a continuously improving alliance. Indeed, as cited in the introduction, Safran et al. (1990) found that positive outcome was associated with successful repairs of alliance rather than a linearly-increasing development of alliance throughout therapy. The central hypothesis of this dissertation, however, has been whether or not there is a time-contingent relationship between alliance and symptom change, and whether changes in alliance precede changes in symptoms or vice versa. As noted at the beginning of this section, no consistent pattern of lead-lag relationship emerged from the pooled results of the eight subjects. Of the predicted 26 lead-lag relationships expected to hold between alliance and symptom measures, only 12 of them were found to result in a significant correlation. With $\alpha$-levels set at .10 for this portion of the analysis (due to the difficulty of detecting a significant result after pre-whitening a series) one would expect to detect 3 significant relationships by chance alone – however, in this case the probability of obtaining 12 significant results is less than .001 when the proportion of expected non-significant result is .90. Within these twelve relationships there were 5 significant and distinct negative-lag correlations, 5 significant and distinct zero-lag correlations and 13 significant and distinct positive-lag correlations. Negative lags indicated that changes in alliance preceded changes in symptomatology, while positive lags indicated that changes in symptomatology preceded changes in alliance. Zero-lags indicated simultaneous co-variation. These 23 significant relationships were tested for generalizability across all eight subjects. Effects sizes for all 23 relationships were calculated for each individual subject and then a mean effect-size was calculated (although in a few cases a subject’s effect size for a particular relationship was omitted because of clear lack of variance in the alliance measure). Nine of the 23 relationships thus tested were found to have small effect sizes when summed across all subjects. These nine relationships, which consisted of 3 zero-lag, 1 negative-lag and 5 positive-lag relationships, are presented in Table 47. There was often large variance in both the significance level and direction of the correlation, so that the presence of even a small effect size is indicative of a meaningful result. Certainly, this meta-analytic approach to evaluating time-contingent relationships could be much improved by a priori categorization of subjects, and then pooling effect sizes for hypothesized relationships within specific categories but such considerations will be discussed further on. The three significant zero-lag relationships, indicating simultaneous covariance, were OQSD↔IDRX (r = -.11), OQSR↔GOAL (r = 0.11) and OQTOT↔IDRX (r = -0.14). Thus it appears that as symptom distress and total distress as assessed by the OQ-45 decrease (i.e., improve), a patient’s tendency to idealize the relationship and avoid disagreements with the therapist simultaneously increases. As a patient’s social functioning improves, goal and task agreement with the therapist simultaneously decreases. It is possible that these simultaneous relationships are mediated by time-contingent relationships to other symptom or alliance measures, but it is beyond the scope of this study to assess that possibility. The one negative-lag relationship, indicating that change in alliance preceded change in symptoms, was OQSR←IDRX (lag 1, r = 0.11). Thus, as a patient becomes more able to disagree with the therapist, their social functioning improves 3-4 days later. Hatcher & Barends (1996) suggested a similar relationship between IDRX and outcome in general, and noted that improvement was generally more likely if a patient could express some disagreement with the therapist. It is certainly plausible that self-assertion in therapy could promote confidence in a patient’s ability to assert herself in other settings with a lessened fear of negative consequences. The five positive-lag relationships, indicating that change in symptoms preceded change in alliance, were OQIR→DEDP (lag 4, r = -0.13), OQSR→COL2 (lag 2, r = -0.14), OQSR→DEDP (lag 1, r = -0.11), OQTOT→IDRX (lag 1, r = -0.16) and BAI→DEDP (lag 1, r = -0.14). Three symptom measures were found to be associated with later changes in patient dedication. Thus, as interpersonal, social functioning and anxiety levels improve, patient dedication (engagement and openness in the therapy) increases 3-4 days later, 2 weeks later, and 3-4 days later (respectively). Improvement in social functioning also predicts increased confidence in the therapist one week later. Understanding of the zero-lag relationship OQTOT↔IDRX discussed above is complicated by the finding of a positive lag 1 relationship OQTOT→IDRX, which indicates that decreases in total distress also predicts increased idealization of the relationship 3-4 days later. Figure 97 below graphically displays these relationships and it can easily be seen how several variables affect patient dedication. Figure 97: Graphical display of time-contingent and simultaneous relationships There are three separate influences on patient dedication. The clearest ones are seen in paths (2) and (3); whereby a decrease (improvement) in the measure of interpersonal functioning (OQIR↓) is associated with increased patient dedication (DEDP↑) 2 weeks later (each “→” symbol represents one lag value). Decreased anxiety (BAI↓) is also associated with increased patient dedication (DEDP↑) 3-4 days later. A more intriguing relationship is shown in path (1) beginning with a hypothetical worsening of total distress (OQTOT↑) leading to more disagreements and decreased idealization of the therapist (IDRX↓) 3-4 days later, which in turns leads to an improvement in social functioning (OQSR↓). This improvement in social functioning in turn leads to increased patient dedication (DEDP↑) 3-4 days later and increased confidence in the therapist (COL2↑) a week later. Although this is a hypothetical model, it is worth considering the possibility that a therapist in such a situation might, for example, be focused on repairing a supposed rupture in goal and task agreement and then later interpret improved patient dedication 3-4 days later as a sign of his/her effectiveness at “repairing” the rupture. It is humbling to realize that such a theoretically sound clinical observation would be misguided – the eventual result of increased patient dedication had nothing to do with a so-called repair of alliance – the momentum for change in the alliance began with the worsening of overall distress. This clearly illustrates some of the pitfalls of constructing theoretical models on the basis of anecdotal case studies, and serves as a strong argument for the necessity of the scientific method when studying clinical phenomena. Limitations of the Current Study It is striking that in only one relationship does alliance predict symptom change – this contrasts with existing literature that stresses the importance of alliance in producing positive outcome in therapy. Of course, this one study with its small sample of subjects and narrow range of presenting problems by no means overturns the common assumption that alliance causes change in symptomatology. Specific limitations of this study were, of course, its small pool of subjects, which limit the study’s generalizability. There was very little ethnic diversity in the subjects and only one male subject. There was also limited pre-screening of subjects and their diagnosis was not confirmed by use of a standardized interview. Furthermore, the majority of subjects presented with symptoms in the sub-clinical range – a potential problem with a design such as this is that more clinically distressed patients may be unwilling to delay treatment until after a suitable baseline period. However, the sub-clinical scores may also reflect a problem with the validity of the measures used to assess outcome. The therapists involved in this study had limited clinical experience, ranging from two to eleven months of clinical experience. Half of the therapists had less than six months of experience. Furthermore, although all the treatment plans indicated an insight-oriented approach, it is unclear how that differed from therapist to therapist – indeed, within the experienced psychoanalytic community there is a wide diversity in how “insight-oriented” therapy is practiced. No attempt was made to assess the level of competence of the therapist, level of activity in sessions, or the suitability of their match with the patient. There was also no measure of their sense of the alliance – indeed given that one aspect of this study concerned itself with assessing transferential components of the alliance, it would be helpful to have an assessment of the alliance from someone other than the patient. A further limitation of this study is its quasi-experimental design – without experimental controls it is impossible to determine if some unmeasured third variable may be causing changes in alliance and symptomatology in such a manner that it appears that changes in symptoms are “causing” changes in alliance. For example, one such unmeasured variable might be the structure of therapy itself – a person needs to be organized to make appointments and pay for sessions and simply setting one hour aside each week can require assertion with family members or employers. In this regard, consider a significant negative lag 3 relationship between social functioning and goal and task agreement (as was the case with Hilda) so that as social functioning improves so does agreement on the goals of therapy $1\frac{1}{2}$ weeks later. In such a case, one might assume that, as the patient notices improvement in her social environment, her willingness to go along with the therapist’s treatment plan increases. However, what if the change occurs in both variables because of the effects of being in a structured therapy? Perhaps the initial impact from the structured therapy is seen in her social environment because she has had to make immediate changes to her work schedule. Over a slightly longer period ($1\frac{1}{2}$ weeks longer) the structured nature of the therapy may begin helping her organize her thoughts, settle her feelings and calm down enough so as to better understand how therapy works and to appreciate the importance of setting clear goals and mutual collaboration. In this example, one might mistakenly assume that changes in social functioning cause changes in goal and task agreement, when in fact it would be the experience of being in a structured therapy that would account for changes in both the outcome and alliance measures. Certainly the use of time-dependent cross-correlational analyses can provide the initial step in exploring causal relationships, but they need to be extended and improved upon by the addition of controlled studies. Finally, there are also some difficulties with the statistical methodologies used to analyze the results. The limitations of the Haugh-Box procedure were already discussed in the introduction, including underestimation of causal parameters, difficulties in fitting an appropriate model to the data and an increased proportion of error measurement in the residuals. Use of the procedure was also quite time-consuming and unlikely to become a popular tool for clinicians. Data management was difficult even for such a small number of subjects, due to the amount of data generated by continuous measurement – these concerns would make such a study difficult to implement in a busy practice. Also, the intuitively simpler Simulation Method for detecting significant treatment effects is unfortunately limited by its inability to differentiate slope effects from changes in the mean (due to its reliance on a Spearman Rho statistic), and it was not always in agreement with the results derived from the fitted models. Future Directions This study can be considered exploratory in nature, and in several ways it has laid down a foundation for future naturalistic studies regarding questions of clinical concern. There is a clear need for continued study of therapeutic alliance: the equivocal and also unexpected results of this study cry out for replication as they raise some important questions about the nature of the therapeutic alliance and its relationship to outcome. Is it reality-based? For all factors and for all patients? If alliance truly is stable then what phenomena best account for sudden changes in it? Is outcome more commonly a predictor of alliance than vice versa? How do alliance factors inter-relate and is their relationship time-contingent? Can we fit causal path models to time-series data? I do not know the answer to these questions but in making suggestions as to how they might be answered, I would like to focus on the use of improved methodologies, more specific hypotheses, clinical uses of time-series designs, and group analyses. Regarding the statistical approach that I used in this study, I would argue for a combination of what is best in both the Simulation Method and the Durbin-Watson approach to assessing time-series designs. The Simulation Method’s greatest advantage is its use of simulated streams to determine probability-values and to adjust for auto-correlation. Its downfall is its reliance on Spearman’s Rho, a rank-ordered test that is insensitive to slope parameters. Without a component analysis of slopes and means it is not possible to confidently ascribe symptom change to treatment effects. Use of simulated streams with a Pearson r-statistic and a regression model would certainly make it more useful. Other methodology issues concern improved experimental designs and use of appropriate measures. Use of pre-screening questionnaires to assess patient characteristics relevant to treatment such as personality style, characteristic defenses and coping style could allow for a more efficient grouping of subjects when analyzing results. Evaluation of therapist variables, including competency and experience, could better elucidate how alliance develops between particular individuals. Regarding the use of appropriate measures, one obvious suggestion for improvement is to use fewer and shorter measures. Over-reliance on self-report measures that ask subjects to assess their inner state is likely to increase the degree of error measurement – which is already a problem with the Haugh-Box procedure. I would recommend that the client and intake-evaluator devise a short 5 to 7 item scale that assesses objective measures of distress, e.g. that ask a client “how many times did you wake up during the night?” rather than “How well did you sleep?” Shorter forms, although possibly compromising reliability, would also allow for an increase in the frequency of data collection. For example, I have used a seven item check-list in my own clinical work that allowed data to be collected four times a day, resulting in a rapid accumulation of data across a short time span. I also hope that future researchers will re-visit the specific relationships that appeared to be significant in this study and well as those that reached near-significance. One of the most serious limits of cross-correlational analyses is the practical difficulty of specifying what lag values to investigate a priori, and the increased possibility of type I errors when running a multitude of correlations. Hopefully, this study has offered fruitful possibilities for future researchers to pursue. I also think it is important to emphasize that power in time-series comes from the number of data-points, not the number of subjects (unless one is specifically concerned with creating generalizable results). With a pro-longed treatment, it would be possible to split a series into sections and confirm if certain patterns of interaction are maintained. Better yet, one could devise a more controlled study, whereby different variables are manipulated during different stages of therapy and assess the effect of the effect of these variables on mean levels and slopes. I believe that time-series methodologies could also be of practical value in a clinical setting. For example, data could be collected during the initial phases of therapy and analyzed for particular relationships. On the basis of the initial results, the therapist could decide where to focus his/her efforts, and after an adequate time-period has passed then he/she could test the effectiveness of the intervention. Thus, both the planning of an intervention and the assessment of its effectiveness can be improved with this methodology. Finally, it is important to be able to produce general findings that can be of practical benefit to one’s colleagues, and not just to one specific patient. More effective grouping of the results of several time-series studies is an important step in the evolution and widening utility of time-series designs. One attractive possibility is the use of Hierarchical Linear Models (HLM) that could be used as an exploratory method to analyze the aggregated single-case data. HLM’s enable the researcher to model the response profile of each subject in a study as a function of specific variables and so retain the level of detail provided by a pure single-subject design through consideration of individual response curves while also enabling the application of group methodology to assess for systematic variation in individual response patterns. (Nugent, 1996). A HLM analysis allows the researcher to identify variables that function to moderate the effects of treatment and produce different response paths. For example, a possible variable for consideration in this study could be level of therapist experience. **Conclusion** Conducting this study provided me with much insight into the intricacies of time series design and analysis, but less assurance as to the exact nature of the relationship of alliance to outcome. No clear unequivocal pattern emerged, and until elements of this study are further replicated, I can offer no firm conclusions. Alliance appears to be predominantly reality-based when it refers to a patient’s confidence in the therapeutic process, confidence in the therapist and agreement on goals and tasks. However, when alliance refers to bond, patient dedication and idealization of the relationship, it is more transference-based. Alliance also appears to be relatively stable across time. When considering the final hypothesis of this study it is difficult to determine with certainty if the relationship between alliance and outcome is predominantly time-contingent or simultaneous. However, based on the meta-analysis of cross-correlational statistics, it appears that two-thirds of the significant associations between alliance and outcome were time-contingent. Two results were most striking, however: (1) the clear predominance of time-contingent relationships in which symptom change was predictive of later alliance change, rather than vice versa and (2) the absence of an effect size above $r = 0.16$. How are we to understand this? I could refer to limitations of the methodology or the limited power, but I would prefer to end with some insight from a patient. After several years of a difficult yet ultimately successful once-weekly therapy for debilitating depression, the patient, when asked what was most helpful about therapy, replied that is it was like a hand that gently guided her, without judging her harshly. It had provided assurance that, however bad things were, her story would always be told and, once told, things would feel just a little bit better. Over time, however, the story shifted from tales of the painful past to tales of the present and future. That shift marked a move into health and contentment. She emphasized, however, that it was time that healed and that even the addition of daily sessions would not have hastened the process – the value of the therapy was that it provided a reassuring witness to the passing of time and the process of natural change. Considering this explanation in conjunction with the result of this study – namely that symptom change predominantly predicted alliance – I am inclined to believe that therapeutic alliance is simply the ticket that allows us the privilege of traveling with our patients and weathering the passage of time together, and when symptoms change, as they are wont to do with the passing of days, that ticket is renewed, re-issued or rerouted.

APPENDIX Table A1 presents the Z-scores corresponding to each subject’s r-statistic for certain lag-valued cross-correlations between alliance and symptom scales that were found to be significant at that particular lag for at least one subject in the initial analysis. Relationships in bold in the first column indicate those relationships whose mean Z-score across all subjects was found to be significant (E.S. > .10). These significant relationships were presented earlier in the main text in Table 47. This table is included here so that the reader may further evaluate the heterogeneity of the results, and also to allow for further analysis of the results for possible patterns that might explain the varying effect-sizes. **Table A1:** Effect-sizes (summed across all subjects) for relationships found to be significant at specific lags for at least one subject | Relationship | Lag | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | |--------------------|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----| | OQSD→CCOL | +2 | .184| -.0152| .277| .288| .141| - | .078| -.460| | OQSD←IDRX | 0 | .245| -.026| .033| - | - | -.576| -.053| -.299| | OQSD→IDRX | +1 | .094| -.019| .122| - | - | -.068| -.025| -.648| | OQIR←DEDP | -2 | .321| -.074| .066| .141| .131| -.400| -.162| -.266| | OQIR←DEDP | -1 | .101| .163| -.041| -.436| .192| -.207| -.175| -.023| | OQIR→DEDP | +4 | -.472| -.224| -.224| -.018| -.095| .161| .004| -.203| | OQSR←COL2 | -2 | .556| .028| .090| .177| -.424| - | -.117| .161| | OQSR←COL2 | 0 | -.058| -.173| .036| .113| .039| - | .424| .103| | OQSR→COL2 | +2 | -.424| -.006| -.388| .032| -.234| - | -.026| .025| | OQSR←GOAL | 0 | .008| -.074| .066| .161| -.173| .529| .118| .270| | OQSR→GOAL | +1 | -.067| -.073| -.087| .069| .056| .103| .424| .177| | OQSR→GOAL | +3 | -.255| .085| -.144| -.245| .059| .266| .009| -.517| | OQSR→BOND | +1 | -.093| .192| -.0134| -.424| .008| -.131| -.304| .030| | OQSR→DEDP | +1 | -.218| -.128| .041| -.095| -.563| .154| -.224| .157| | OQSR←IDRX | -1 | -.029| -.015| .053| - | - | .424| .116| .104| | OQTOT←IDRX | 0 | .075| .008| .053| - | - | -.581| -.012| -.388| | OQTOT→IDRX | +1 | -.039| -.161| .124| - | - | -.093| -.148| -.633| | BDI←IDRX | +4 | .203| -.058| .388| - | - | -.032| -.001| -.321| | BAI←BOND | -2 | -.199| .110| .035| -.027| .209| - | -.377| -.182| | BAI←BOND | 0 | -.255| .046| -.007| .103| -.563| - | .332| -.092| | BAI→BOND | +5 | .055| .021| -.167| -.157| .282| - | .047| -.563| | BAI→DEDP | +1 | -.476| -.157| .131| -.121| -.354| -.055| -.111| .038| | BAI→DEDP | +5 | -.026| .343| -.161| .083| .523| .126| -.064| -.529| Note: Cross-correlational r-statistics for relationships involving the alliance subscale IDRX were not included in calculating ΣZ for subject 4, Deirdre, and subject 5, Elaine, because of lack of variability.

2018- 2019 Annual Report State Superintendent's Advisory Council on Special Education Submitted September 2019 Mandated under Chapter 15.377(4), Wisconsin Statutes and 20 U.S.C. 1412(a) (21), the Wisconsin State Superintendent's Advisory Council on Special Education (Council) serves as an advisory council to the State Superintendent on matters related to statewide delivery of special education programming and related services. The Council also provides input when requested to proposed changes and revisions to state policies, rules, regulations, and initiatives that affect students with disabilities and their advocates. Council members are appointed by the State Superintendent. They represent a wide range of interested citizens, professionals, and educators from throughout the state. Council members include parents, teachers, administrators, administrators of programs for students with disabilities, and others concerned about the education of students with disabilities. Council meetings covered in this report were held on June 22, 2018, September 28, 2019, December 7, 2019; March 15, 2019. The meetings were open to the public and anyone wishing to address the council is always permitted to do so. Council Member Reports and Issues * In 2018-2019, eight new members were welcome to the council. * Council members reviewed Due Process Hearing Findings and Decisions DPI Compliance Director was available to answer questions. * Council members discussed Council roles and responsibilities, compliance complaint procedures were reviewed, Council policies and procedures, becoming more advisory to both DPI and decision makers around the state. * A review of the agenda approval process was conducted. Concern was expressed for children who are waiting for long-term support and budgetary revisions to assist with the reduction of that wait. * Council members reviewed Due Process Hearing Findings and Decisions. DPI Compliance Director was available to answer questions. Open Public Forum and Public Forum Response: A Public Forum/Listening Session that occurred on March 6-13, 2019. The forum was held with members of all CESA representatives and parents attending. Topics discussed included Dyslexia, inclusive environments, fear of retaliation, communication between home and school and transition from grade to grade. There were 59 participants. All members felt the online forum was a better structure than past forums. Department of Public Instruction Information and Discussion: * Staffing updates at the state and federal levels were provided. * Information regarding the 2019-2021 budget for Special Education programs was disseminated. * DPI notified all LEAS exceeding 1.0% participation in one or more given subject areas on the alternate assessment Dynamic Learning maps. * An article from the Association of Wisconsin School Administrators (AWSA) has written an article to ensure the continuation of a free appropriate public education (FAPE) for students with disabilities. New Proposal from the White House A merger between the Department of Education and the Department of Labor has been proposed. The program would create a new Department of Education and the Workforce with four main subdivisions focusing on K-12 education enforcement of labor and civil rights laws, and research. Results Driven Accountability (RDA): DPI is interested in thoughts about what is working well and what should change in the State Performance Plan/Annual Performance Report. A request was made to submit all impute to determine what is working well and what should be changed in the State Performance Plan/Annual Performance Report (SPP/APR), the State Systemic Improvement Plan, (SSIP), annual determinations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and OSEP's system of differentiated monitoring and supports (DMS). IDEA Complaint Findings & Decisions and Due Process Hearing Findings & Decisions: Equity in IDEA - The USDE is postponed the compliance date for implementing the significant disproportionality regulations by two years, from July 1, 2018 - July 1, 2020. The USDE is also postponed the date children ages 3 - 5 must be included in the analysis of significant disproportionality, from July 1, 2020 - July 1, 2022. The committee intends to provide comments opposing the delay and recognizing the importance of eliminating racial disparity in special education. Differentiated Monitoring and Supports: Wisconsin received the annual Differentiated Monitoring and Support (DMS) designation from OSEP. The DMS system is a component of Results Driven Accountability. DMS is a multi-tiered model for monitoring and providing support based on the principle that supports are first provided at a core or universal level to effectively address the needs of all States. Intensive monitoring and support is reserved for those states with the most intense or complex challenges to implementation. LEA Determinations: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act requires DPI to determine if each local educational Agency (LEA) meets the requirements of part B of the federal requirements, including both compliance and results indicators. When calculating the preliminary 2018 IDEA determinations, the DPI continued the process of gradually shifting toward balancing results and compliance indicators and using the weights of 65% Compliance and 35% results for 2018 LEA determinations. EIPA Score Changes: The State Superintendent's Advisory Council on Deaf/Hard of Hearing Programs recommended and the DPI has accepted the required EIPA Performance score for the renewable educational interpreter license be set at 3.3 beginning July 1, 2019, and be set at 3.5 beginning July 2020. Licensing Update: The rewrite of Wisconsin Administrative Code PI 34 has been approved and went into effect August 1. If a license expires June 30, 2019 or earlier and the application is submitted prior to June 30, 2019, the application is eligible to use renewal requirements under the old PI 34.34 (30) or the new PI 34.086. Legal Updates: DPI issued a new bulletin, No. 18-3, on the Legal Requirements for Accessible Educational Materials for (AEM) for the Students with Print Disabilities. U.S. Department of Education announced the launch of an initiative to address the possible inappropriate use of restraints in the nation's schools. OSEP Updates: There is a proposal of an increase for the US Department of Education which would result in 87 million dollars related to IDEA. New framework was released titled "Rethinking Special Education" which will focus on how we service early childhood students with disabilities and highlight some the work done in different states. A team of OSEP-funded Parent Centers curated a collection of web-based resources on trauma-informed care. Topics covered are 1) What is traumainformed care 2) Trauma and specific populations 3) Building trauma-informed schools and 4) Responding to disaster. Grant Opportunities: The Enhancing Sensory, Social and Emotional, and Self-Regulation Skills in Students with IEPs (ES3) grant provides selected districts with tools, resources, processing and coaching support to examine and enhance systems, skills and beliefs as they pertain to supporting the sensory social and emotional, and selfregulatory needs of students with IEPs. Transition Readiness Grant Program is available to assist districts and independent charter schools in expanding capacity to provide transition services for pupils with disabilities. The program was established to help identify and create competitive work opportunities for pupils with disabilities who are currently not Research to Practice: Inclusive Communities Grant Opportunity – Twelve districts (one from each CESA across Wisconsin) will join the Research to Practice Inclusive Communities (RPIC) project. Each district will receive professional development to establish professional learning communities. Evidence - Based Practice Fund Grant Opportunity – School districts and charter schools are eligible to complete for funding that supports evidence-based practices related to successful transition from high school to beyond for student with IEPs. Support for students on the autism spectrum – new professional development opportunities for supporting neuro-diverse students is offered by CESA across the state. Training will be beneficial for family members as well as all educators. Special Reports: The council heard presentations and had discussions related to the following topics: State Systemic Improvement Plan (SSIP) Julia Hartwig presented on Indicator 17, the newest indicator added by OSEP. The updates were provided on four improvement strategies included in Wisconsin's plan. Previously, council helped set the State Identified Measureable Result (SiMR). Council members provided input to DPI on accuracy, slippage, and the amount of testing students are expected to participate in each year. Office of School Safety Glenn Rehberg provided an update from the Office of School Safety as well as grant funding and resources available to schools. Council members asked questions about building safety plans individualized to each level, training requirements, consulting with other agencies, data reports, and funding opportunities for school safety. Impact of Changes to Equitable Participation under Title 1, Part A Funds Information was presented on the distribution and allocation of Title 1 funds to public and private schools. Title 1 funds are distributed based on a set simple formula, and distributed to low income families statewide. Almost all districts in Wisconsin get Title 1 funds. Private schools can choose not to accept and participate in Title 1 funds. Setting Indicator 3C Targets Indicator 3C targets the statewide assessment proficiency for students with IEPs. The DPI recommendation is to make the assessments the same for all grades 3-8 and 11. Council agrees with targets for Indicator 3C in line with the ESSA consolidated plan. Setting Indicator 8 Targets An overview and presentation of Indicator 8, and who it targets, was given. Indicator 8 is officially the parent involvement indicator but in ESSA the language was changed to family engagement. Statewide Continuous Improvement Efforts A presentation was made on the coherent continuous improvement for advancing equity in education, how IDEA and ESSA related in equity, Federal Identifications focusing on responsiveness to needs, preliminary joint federal notification packet, racial disproportionality in special education, continuous improvement plan, and proposed supports for continuous improvement. The continuous improvement efforts focus is building supports for district who are identified as needing support. A website on continuous improvement was reviewed and the council determined the content is useful to schools and districts, but not useful for families and communities. The council suggested making the site useful for families by adding a parent tab where key information is clarified with the use of terms that make more sense to parents.

Je to jen svědomí, co nutí člověka stále znovu a znovu zpytovat duši, anebo existuje cosi mnohem hlubšího, kam obyčejný smrtelník nedosáhne, ale o čem jen tuší, že číhá vyrazit každým okamžikem do útoku? V románu Pokání dovedl Ian McEwan tuto myšlenku k dokonalosti. Třináctiletá Briony odvíjí svůj život v jistých představách, které ji mají neomylně dovést ke konkrétnímu, jasně vytyčenému cíli. Těmto snům přizpůsobuje vše, co přizpůsobit lze. Co nelze, tomu je třeba dopomoci. S fanatickou úporností pubescenta a fantazií, rozvinutou až do krajnosti, dohání protagonisty své soukromé hry na život k tragédii, za kterou by měla činit po zbytek života pokání.

Last October, HOG reported incredibly strong Q3 results delivering its strongest Q3 net income level since 2015, reflecting the success of last year's The Rewire turnaround strategy. On February 2 nd , when HOG is scheduled to report its Q4 and full-year 2020 results, it will also announce it's The Hardwire five-year strategic plan to deliver profitability, long-term growth, and shareholder value creation. Through it's The Rewire turnaround initiative, HOG has exited 39 markets where demand and cash generation did not represent a profitable opportunity. HOG will focus on 50 key markets, with 17 of those markets relying on outside distributors for the first time. Further, after eliminating manufacturing plans in India, HOG announced a new partnership with Hero MotoCorp for production and distribution in that country. The narrow focus and limited supply combined with a strong COVID-19 driven demand for personal motorsports drive strong pricing trends. HOG's focus on a newer product line with the ability to customize bikes through add-on purchases of Harley-Davidson accessories and branded apparel will drive significant gains in profitability for both the company and its dealers. Last Tuesday, HOG introduced its new model lineup along with parts and accessories, apparel, and riding gear through a well-received online virtual event that included commentary from Aquaman star and Harley enthusiast Jason Momoa. The new PanAmerican 1250 adventure touring bike was previewed during the event and will be highlighted further during the following virtual event scheduled for February 22 nd . We believe as a much more focused company, HOG will better leverage its Harley-Davidson iconic global brand to create long-term shareholder value. We believe further upside exists from current levels and continue to recommend purchase. January 22, 2021 Page 3 of 13 Harley-Davidson, Inc. (HOG-US) Automobiles [x] The Rewire delivered a highly successful turnaround in a difficult time as the upcoming The Hardwire lays out plans for the company's future. After becoming CEO last May, Jochen Zeitz implemented a successful turnaround strategy. The Rewire key initiatives included reducing HOG's overall complexity in developing a new operating model and organizational structure, creating a more simple, agile, and efficient company. HOG redesigned its global business, prioritizing its focus on the markets with the highest potential. HOG also streamlined its product portfolio and redesigned its go-to-market efforts for maximum impact. The results are expected to deliver significant expense savings. HOG also optimized its approach to supplying inventory management, emphasizing its powerful and profitable dealer network. Most importantly, it bestpositioned HOG to leverage its Harley-Davidson global iconic brand as it begins to experience a resurgence in global motorcycle demand. One of the most powerful outcomes of the COVID 19 pandemic has been a massive resurgence in power sports interest as consumers rediscover the enjoyment of personal pursuits such as motorcycle riding. The new PanAmerican launch opens up a new opportunity to capitalize on the fastgrowing demand for a combination of an on-and-off-road sport/touring bike. [x] Harley-Davidson remains one of the world's most iconic brands producing the industry's most innovative motorcycles. Last Tuesday, HOG held a well-received virtual event highlighting several new model introductions, emphasizing customization and new color schemes. Last year, HOG introduced several new 2020 models and advanced technologies, enhancing safety and functionality. HOG also launched its HD Connect subscription-based cellular connectivity service. HD Connect provides real-time connectivity to monitor key functions and remotely monitor security through the Harley-Davidson App and the Reflex Defensive Rider Systems (RDRS) technologies, including traction control and advanced Antilock Braking System (ABS), available on select models. HOG will hold an introductory virtual event on February 22 nd introducing future models for further market expansion, with a more detailed introduction of its new Pan-American. Research: (646) 780-8880 firstname.lastname@example.org 410 Park Avenue New York NY, 10022 (212) 430-8700 www.tigressfinancialpartners.com January 22, 2021 Page 4 of 13 Harley-Davidson, Inc. (HOG-US) Automobiles [x] HOG's balance sheet and improving cash flow will enable it to fund its strategic initiatives and enhance shareholder returns through its consistent long-term history of dividend increases in share repurchases. As of September 2020, HOG had $3.55 billion, $23.16 per share, in excess cash, having completed several debt offerings in 2020. In April 2020, HOG cut its quarterly dividend from $0.38 per share to $0.02 per share and suspended discretionary share repurchases due to COVID19 pandemic economic uncertainty. HOG's current cash balance, along with an expected $657.2 million in Economic Operating Cash Flow (EBITDAR) generated over the NTM, gives it more than enough liquidity to fund key growth initiatives that we expect it will outline during its upcoming The Hardwire presentation scheduled for February 2 nd . Prior to the recent dividend reduction, HOG has had a continual history of consistently raising dividends since it first started paying a dividend in 1993. Also, before suspending discretionary share repurchases last year, HOG has had a consistent track record of repurchasing stock going back to 1999. We believe that once the successful implementation of its hardwire strategy takes hold, HOG will ramp up dividends and share repurchases. Investment Thesis HOG's new strategic plan, The Hardwire, and new leadership will drive a long-term sales recovery. Strong Q3 results are already showing that business trends are turning positive. HOG's new initiatives should help sales accelerate significantly in 2021. The Hardwire's more narrow focus realigns the company's execution and operating model to drive long-term value as part of its new five-year strategic plan. HOG is also extensively expanding its international dealer base and production facilities to drive the global demand for Harley-Davidson products. Harley-Davidson is one of the world's most powerful lifestyle brands. HOG's strong brand equity, combined with its innovative ability and the ongoing rollout of new products along with international expansion and consistent long-term history of returning cash to shareholders, will drive greater long-term shareholder value creation.

We make key adjustments to reported financial data eliminating GAAP-based accounting distortions and measuring all companies on a cash operating basis. Our proprietary research framework is a multi-factor model that scores and ranks companies based on their risk-adjusted ability to create Economic Profit relative to their current market value focusing on three key components: Business Performance: Measuring economic profitability, growth, and operating efficiency. Risk: Measuring business sustainability, volatility, strength, and consistency. Valuation: Linking business performance to market value. Measuring value created relative to capital employed and enterprise multiples of Economic Profit and cash flow. We score and rank 24 key measurements of performance, risk, and value into relative market and industry investment recommendations. Glossary of Key Terms and Measures Excess Cash per Share: Excess Cash per Share is the amount of excess cash divided by basic shares outstanding. Excess Cash consists of all cash and short-term securities, less operating cash needed to run the business. Operating Cash is 5% of TTM net sales revenue. EBITDAR: Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization, and Restructuring, and Rent Costs. This is especially important when comparing companies that use a significant amount of leased assets like restaurants and retailers. NOPAT: Net Operating Profit After Tax represents a company's after-tax cash operating Profit, excluding financing costs. Total Invested Capital: Total Invested Capital the total cash investment that shareholders and debt holders have made during the life of the company. Return on Capital: Return on Capital equals NOPAT divided by Total Invested Capital. It is a key measure of operating efficiency. ROC quantifies how well a company generates cash flow relative to the capital invested in its business. Cost of Capital: Is the proportionately weighted cost of each category of capital – common equity, preferred equity, and debt. Economic Profit: Economic Profit is the net operating income after tax less the opportunity cost of the total capital invested. It is the most important driver of shareholder value. Current Operations Value: Current Operations Value is the portion of market value based on the discounted present value of the current earnings stream, assuming it remains constant forever. Future Growth Value: Future Growth Value is the portion of market value based on un-earned Economic Profit Research: (646) 780-8880 email@example.com 410 Park Avenue New York NY, 10022 (212) 430-8700 www.tigressfinancialpartners.com Tigress Financial Partners seeks to do business with the companies that are the subject of these reports.

Proposal for Smart Classroom Version 1.0 March 2018 About Umang Foundation Umang Foundation is a registered Public Charitable Trust and active for over 9 years and managed by working professionals in Mumbai. It was started by three IT Professionals in July 2008, who believe "there's more to life" beyond office and home. Umang Foundation consists of more than 10,000+ dynamic professionals as volunteers spanning across various sectors including IT, Management, Finance and also includes doctors and elite senior citizens, who are enthusiastic to work for uplifting the society. Team Umang is focused to reduce the school drop-outs in slum based and rural Maharashtra by taking preventive measures rather than stitch in the hole by providing basic stationery material. Project "Promote Education" has provided over 1.2 lakhs stationery kits (since inception) to school going children to help them to continue their studies. Umang Foundation focuses on the improvement of society in every possible way, to achieve this goal Team Umang have organized many philanthropic events and activities including distribution of stationery kits, clothes to villagers, blood donation drives, celebration of festivals with people in old age home, celebration of special days with children and children suffering from cancer. In Year 2017, Team Umang has already provided education material to 28,000+ less fortunate children. Umang Foundation has entered five times into LIMCA BOOK OF RECORDS for organizing largest stationery distribution drive in a single day. Till date, Umang Foundation does not have any employees and is working majorly on the basis of Volunteers' efforts and run on 100% voluntarily basis which helps organization to keep its admin cost ~1% only. Why Smart Classroom We would agree that digital education enhances the learning experience of students by better engaging their attention and enabling them to grasp concepts more readily. It has changed the way education is imparted – a single query or doubt can be clarified in seconds online, there are innumerable resources available for a child online that add on to the classroom teachings. But it's a different story altogether in the rural interiors…Dismal condition of the schools, skewed teacher-student ratio, lack of proper study materials; digital education in such a condition seems a far-off dream. Let's make that dream a reality! Smartphones, tablets, laptops, computer labs, social media, virtual teachers, online coaching…the list is endless. A child in a big city has access to so much more than another in the interiors. Recently, there have been some initiatives takenby some organisations and the government to digitise rural Maharashtra, be it distributing tablets to students or providing access to a computer lab; but there's still a long way to go…. Let's lend a helping hand. This is where YOU come in! Umang Foundation has long associated with corporate and has enabled them to connect with the children in the rural interiors of Maharashtra. Every year we conduct hundreds of activities, aimed at improving access to basic amenities such as hygiene and education, amenities that we simply take for granted! Join us on our journey as we take up our first goal – To ensure that every child, every school in Shahapur has access to digital education and to bring them at par with the rest of country.

Römer Stichting Roeivalidatie, een overzicht De relatie tot de KNRB Stichting Roeivalidatie heeft haar taken op het gebied van voorlichting, het stimuleren van deelname aan wedstrijden en het doen organiseren van de Nationale Roeitocht in goed overleg in 2003 aan de KNRB overgedragen. In het verleden ontving Stichting Roeivalidatie voor haar landelijk werk aanzienlijke subsidies. Toen in 2003 een groot aantal van deze nationale taken aan de KNRB werd overgedragen, ging ook deze subsidie over naar de KNRB. Stichting Roeivalidatie en de KNRB onderhouden goede banden. Omdat Stichting Roeivalidatie een stichting is en geen vereniging, is zij geen lid van de KNRB, maar heeft in plaats hiervan een begunstigerstatus. Hiervoor betaalt Stichting Roeivalidatie jaarlijks een bijdrage aan de KNRB. Locatie Crooswijksebocht Stichting Roeivalidatie telt thans ruim 50 roeiers, die dankzij de inzet van bijna 45 vrijwilligers wekelijks instructie en roei-ervaring krijgen. De dagelijkse leiding is in handen van het bestuurslid belast met de activiteiten op de locatie Crooswijksebocht. Dit bestuurslid waakt over de dagelijkse gang van zaken, en roept eens in de 6 weken de dagkapiteins bij elkaar, die gezamenlijk de Commissie Crooswijksebocht vormen. De locatie Crooswijksebocht wordt gedeeld met RV Rijnmond. Met deze roeivereniging onderhoudt Stichting Roeivalidatie goede banden: veel leden van RV Rijnmond zijn bereid om als vrijwilliger het roeien van onze cliënten te begeleiden, dan wel om bij tijd en wijle de handen uit de mouwen te steken bij niet roei-gerelateerde evenementen. Een keer per jaar ontmoeten de beide besturen elkaar officieel. Door het jaar heen is er veel informeel contact. **Activiteiten in 2022** Gelukkig kon er na alle Corona-perikelen vanaf 14 januari dit jaar weer volop geroeid worden. Dat ging tijdens de zomer ook gewoon door dankzij de geweldige inzet van onze vrijwilligers. De samenwerking met de dagkapiteins verliep goed en constructief. De aanmelding van nieuwe roeiers en vrijwilligers liep gewoon door. De aantallen roeiers en vrijwilligers blijven stabiel. Goed te kunnen melden dat de vernieuwing van de website gestaag doorging. Zo ook de mogelijkheid om informatie uit te wisselen tussen roeiers, vrijwilligers en betrokkenen van Stichting Roeivalidatie. Dit allemaal dankzij onze PR-man Jan Vermaak. **Financiën** Verwezen wordt naar het Financiële Jaarverslag op bladzijde 17. **Bestuurssamenstelling en vergoedingen** In dit verslagjaar heeft Kees van Heijningen per 20 oktober het penningmeesterschap overgenomen van Jan Kees van Vliet, die in verband met de begeleiding van de overdracht der financiën voorlopig als algemeen bestuurslid is aangebleven. Verder hebben er geen bestuurswisselingen plaats gevonden. Bestuur noch vrijwilligers ontvangen een vergoeding. **Persoonsgegevens en privacy** Stichting Roeivalidatie neemt de vertrouwelijkheid van de aan haar toevertrouwde persoonsgegevens zeer serieus en heeft passende maatregelen getroffen ter bescherming van die gegevens conform de Algemene Verordening Gegevensbescherming (of AVG). Verslag van de activiteiten in 2022 In 2022 is er volop geroeid voor het eerst in twee jaar zonder beperkingen van corona. In overleg met de dagkapiteins is besloten wederom geen zomerstop te houden. Zo kon er de hele zomer doorgeroeid worden. Op enkele dagen is een roei-dag gecanceld vanwege de bizar hoge temperaturen. Complimenten en veel dank voor alle moeite en inzet van onze vrijwilligers en de dagkapiteins die het elk jaar weer mogelijk maken voor een grote groep roeiers om een dagdeel in de week bij Stichting Roeivalidatie te roeien. - **Lenteborrel** Op vrijdag 22 april hebben we een lenteborrel georganiseerd voor roeiers en vrijwilligers, waarvoor veel animo was. Het nieuwe terras was nog niet klaar maar met het prachtige weer konden we heerlijk buiten zitten. Eindelijk (door corona steeds uitgesteld) konden de nieuwe boten Robbert en Tulp gedoopt worden, een roeister en een vrijwilligster hebben dit samen voortvarend en op traditionele wijze gedaan. Tevens is tijdens de borrel de vrijwilliger van het jaar 2021 bekendgemaakt: Ferdinand Kranenburg ontving de wisselbeker uit handen van het bestuur. - **Voor- en najaarsschoonmaak** Op dinsdag 17 mei was de voorjaarsschoonmaak waaraan een grote ploeg van roeiers en vrijwilligers enthousiast heeft deelgenomen. Het geheel vond plaats op een mooie zomerdag en het was na gedane arbeid wederom heerlijk toeven op ons nieuwe terras. In het najaar is de schoonmaak decentraal gedaan op de verschillende roeidagen door de betreffende roei-dag ploegen. - **Vlettentocht** De Vlettentocht kon op 14 juni na twee jaar uitstel ook weer doorgaan, het was een geslaagde dag. We zijn met drie boten uitgevaren over de Rotte en daarna hebben we buiten op ons eigen terras als vanouds de door Ria en Carien uitstekend verzorgde lunch gebruikt. Vrijwilligersdag Op dinsdag 11 oktober was onze jaarlijkse vrijwilligersdag. De trip ging dit keer naar Futureland op de Maasvlakte, het indrukwekkende informatiecentrum over de activiteiten en ontwikkelingen van de Rotterdamse havens. Bij Futureland werden we ontvangen met koffie en we kregen een wetenswaardige presentatie van de PR-medewerkster van het Havenbedrijf over de ontwikkeling van de Maasvlakte. Vervolgens hadden we een rondvaart met lunch door de Maasvlakte met dezelfde gids die haar presentatie aan boord vervolgde. Het was al met al een zeer geslaagde dag. Vergaderingen, Commissie Crooswijksebocht (CCB) en kantooroverleg Dit jaar heeft de CCB 6 keer vergaderd. Cora Roest is onze enige kantoormedewerker, er is een vacature. Overleg en afstemming met de manager vindt verder tussen de bedrijven door plaats. Het bestuur kwam 4 keer bij elkaar, waarvan 3 keer zonder voorzitter Paul de Waal, die vanwege ziekte was uitgevallen. Daarnaast was er veel onderling overleg. Website en Nieuwsbrieven Onze website-beheerder en PR-man Jan Vermaak verzorgde ook in 2022 weer de Nieuwsbrieven van Stichting Roeivalidatie waarin mooie interviews met roeiers, ingezonden stukken en andere wetenswaardigheden. De vernieuwing van de website ging gestaag door, zo ook de mogelijkheid om informatie uit te wisselen tussen roeiers, vrijwilligers en andere betrokkenen bij Stichting Roeivalidatie. Zeker het vermelden waard zijn de prachtige documentaires van Jan Vermaak die weer evenals de Nieuwsbrieven op onze website te vinden zijn: www.roeivalidatie.nl. Externe contacten De externe contacten met o.a. KNRB, Stichting VISIO te Rotterdam, Sport op Maat, Rotterdam Sportsupport, Stichting MEE, Bartiméus, Rijndam Revalidatie, Parkinsoncafé, de roeiverenigingen in de omgeving en sinds dit jaar Beweegcoach.nl zijn goed te noemen. Materiaal Dit verslagjaar 2022 was gelukkig weer een vol jaar waarin Stichting Roeivalidatie gebruik heeft kunnen maken van onze vloot wherry’s en C2 respectievelijk C3 boten op de Crooswijksebocht-locatie. Al het materiaal was inzetbaar en werd op dagen dat Stichting Roeivalidatie aanwezig is, gebruikt. Ook RV Rijnmond maakt op de weekeinden gebruik van boten van Stichting Roeivalidatie voor instructie en tochten. De tweejaarlijkse botenschoonmaak hebben we in 2022 anders georganiseerd. In het voorjaar hebben we op een dinsdag een gezamenlijke schoonmaak uitgevoerd met aansluitend een lunch, terwijl de najaar-schoonmaak op de verschillende roeidagen plaatsvond waarbij een vooraf afgesproken aantal boten schoon gemaakt is. Dit is door de roeiers en vrijwilligers goed ontvangen. Buiten onze reguliere vloot van wherry’s en C-boten, hebben we ook 11 aangepaste skiff’s die in coördinatie met de KNRB in gebruik zijn bij verschillende roeiverenigingen in het land en op de Bosbaan voor getalenteerde jongvolwassenen met een beperking. Dit zijn personen die onder leiding van de KNRB aan nationale en internationale wedstrijden deelnemen. In 2022 waren er vele aanvragen en wisselingen van boten en locaties die allemaal ingewilligd konden worden. Ook bij Stichting Roeivalidatie zelf in Rotterdam hebben we nu een Rotterdamse student die in de skiff door een vrijwilliger gecoacht wordt. Doordat we in 2022 veel buiten hebben kunnen roeien was het gebruik van onze binnenbak beperkt. Er zijn dit jaar geen boten aangekocht of afgevoerd. Medische zaken en veiligheid In het jaar 2022 zijn er geen bijzonderheden te melden. Alle regels en voorschriften bleven onveranderd. Er zijn tien personen beoordeeld om aan de roeivalidatie deel te nemen. Met de Corona maatregelen in acht genomen, zijn ze allen kunnen starten dit jaar. Want met de organisatie door de dagkapiteins is dat allemaal goed gegaan. Zo ook de veiligheid die hoog in het vaandel bleef staan. Een kleine aanscherping was het gaan dragen van signaal kleding (geel, voorkeur, of wit) minimaal de stuur en de boegroeier. De toekomst Statutair gezien dient Stichting Roeivalidatie twee belangen: a. Ondersteuning en bevordering van het landelijke aangepast roeien middels financiële en materiële bijdragen en/of expertise-uitwisseling b. Bevorderen van het aangepast roeien in Rotterdam Stichting Roeivalidatie heeft als uitgangspunt om dit aangepast roeien zo veel mogelijk geïntegreerd binnen de bestaande verenigingen te laten plaatsvinden. De samenwerking met buurman en voordeurdeler, RV Rijnmond, en de vrijwilligershulp die we ook van de andere Rotterdamse burgerroeiverenigingen, te weten RV Nautilus en KR&ZV De Maas, mogen ontvangen, gekoppeld aan het succes van deze formule – we tellen rond de 53 roeiers hier in Rotterdam – rechtvaardigt de uitspraak, dat het aangepast roeien in Rotterdam en omgeving door alle burgerroeiverenigingen wordt gedragen en door deze solidariteit geheel geïntegreerd is in de Rotterdamse roeiwereld. Vereniging Vrienden van Roeivalidatie (VVR) Het jaar 2022 stond voor de VVR in het teken van een verdere inrichting en wijziging van de organisatie en administratie. We namen afscheid van Kees van Hussen als bestuurslid en mochten Wianka van Dorp, oud Olympisch roeister (Rio de Janeiro, 2016), verwelkomen als nieuw bestuurslid. Van oud voorzitter Kees van Hussen zullen we nog uitgebreider afscheid nemen komend jaar. Inkomende gelden kwamen uit contributies, van weldoeners die jaarlijks doneren en lijfrentes. Van de lopende projecten kan er een en ander worden uitgevoerd op korte termijn en voor de rest zoeken we passende funding. De goede samenwerking met RV Rijnmond werd wederom zeer op prijs gesteld. De contacten met de andere roeivalidatie-gerelateerde organisaties waren zoals altijd constructief. De financiële situatie van de VVR is gezond en de ANBI-status werd zonder probleem gecontinueerd. Olaf Smit, voorzitter Financieel jaarverslag 2022 2022 was ook financieel een lastig jaar voor de Stichting Roeivalidatie. Na 2 Coronajaren waarin niet volledig geroeid kon worden hebben we besloten om de contributie te handhaven. Wederom hebben we een exploitatietekort maar door onze gezonde financiële positie en de steun van donateurs hebben we dit exploitatietekort kunnen dragen. **Subsidies** De gemeente Rotterdam heeft voor het jaar 2022 een subsidie van € 2.500 toegekend en deze is ontvangen. Deze meerkostensubsidie wordt al vele jaren door de gemeente verstrekt. De Stichting Roeivalidatie is de gemeente Rotterdam wederom zeer dankbaar dat deze subsidie die door de gemeente is toegekend en uitgekeerd. **Investeringen** Er zijn dit jaar geen nieuwe boten aangeschaft. **Roeierbijdrage** De roeiers betalen een bijdrage aan Stichting Roeivalidatie, die gelijk staat aan de contributie van een kleine roeivereniging. Echter door alle benodigde speciale voorzieningen is het voor de Stichting niet mogelijk uitsluitend van deze bijdragen rond te komen. De roeierbijdrage bedroeg €150 in 2022. **Opbrengst verkopen** In 2022 zijn geen boten afgestoten. De vloot boten bestaat uit 40 waarvan er 12 in beheer zijn bij Stichting Roeivalidatie en 28 bij Roeiverenigingen in bruikleen zijn gegeven. **Financieel resultaat** Het resultaat van de SRV bedraagt € 5.563 negatief. Dit resultaat is in mindering gebracht op het stichtingsvermogen. ## BALANS per 31 december 2022 in EUR | | 2022 | 2021 | |--------------------------------|----------|----------| | **ACTIVA** | | | | **MATERIELE VASTE ACTIVA** | | | | Boten en riemen | € 40 | € 40 | | Roei ergometers | € 26 | € 26 | | Inventaris | € 1 | € 1 | | **FINANCIELE VASTE ACTIVA** | | | | Voorschot Stichting RAC i.v.m. gebouw | € 22.689 | € 22.689 | | Voorschot Stichting RAC i.v.m.

You may not want to run through this but it can be good to get students to think about it… Supposen =p1p2...pk =q1q2...ql, wherek ≤ l, all thepi's andqj's are prime and the factors are wricen a monotonically increasing order. Now, clearlyp1 dividesn = q1q2…qland so it also divides someqj and there is a natural numberb such thatqj = bp1. . Sinceqj andp1 are prime it follows thatb = 1and hencep1= qj ≥ q1. Arguing similarly in the other direcBon we can showq1= pi ≥ p1. Thus,p1= q1 Next cancelp1= q1from the two factorisaBons ofn and repeat the process.

Aus dem Elternhaus ins freie Leben – oder? Schon zu Zeiten der ersten Mönche in Hardehausen gab es die Idee vom Leben und Arbeiten an einem Ort. Sie gilt bis heute. Wer sich im Jugendhaus beruflich orientieren möchte, kann ins ehemalige Forsthaus einziehen. Die Bewohner Lea, Julika und Jakob trafen sich für mumm! zum WG-Gespräch darüber, was zum Freisein dazugehört. H allo und willkommen in unserer Forsthaus-WG! Seit dem Erstbezug 2010 hat in den sechs Zimmern eine Vielzahl junger Leute gemeinsam gelebt und häufig auch die ersten dauerhaften Wohnerfahrungen außerhalb des eigenen Elternhauses gemacht. Zivildienstleistende, FSLler – auch internationale –, BFDler, Missionare auf Zeit, Auszubildende, Studierende und Praktikant/-innen – sie alle haben wie die Mönche und Ordensschwestern in Hardehausen gelebt und gearbeitet. Und jetzt tun wir es! Vor unserem Antritt im Jugendhaus Hardehausen hatten wir drei uns überlegt, einen gemeinsamen Abend zu verbringen, um uns schon einmal kennenzulernen. Wir zogen also einen Tag vor Arbeitsbeginn in die WG ein und kochten am Abend Lasagne. Wie es sich für eine vorbildliche WG gehört, spülten wir anschließend auch gemeinsam ab. Von Anfang an verstanden wir uns sehr gut, und nachdem wir in der ersten Woche zusammen unseren Ausbildungskurs hatten, waren wir uns schon sehr vertraut. Mit der Zeit fängt man natürlich an, alltägliche Dinge ein bisschen schleifen zu lassen und sie lockerer zu sehen. Dann liegen Freiheit und Faulheit manchmal ziemlich nah beieinander. Aus diesem Grund hatten wir neulich mal wieder eine dieser Situationen: 10 / 11 mummHausbesuch „Eigentlich müssten wir ja noch den Abwasch machen …" Jakob: Ja gut, ist ja auch nicht so viel. Ist nur so eine Umstellung. Zu Hause hat meine Mutter viel gemacht und die übrigen Aufgaben an den Rest der Familie verteilt. Ich habe dann nur immer das Badezimmer geputzt und das hat gepasst. Jetzt muss ich an die ganzen anderen Sachen auch noch denken. Julika: Eigentlich müssten wir ja noch den Abwasch von gestern Abend machen. Jakob: Ja, aber das können wir doch auch noch morgen früh machen. Lea: Irgendwann müssen wir es aber eh machen, außerdem bekommen wir morgen Nachmittag Besuch und ich will nach der Arbeit nicht noch spülen müssen. Julika: Los, komm, hilf uns eben schnell! Morgen wird das echt zu eng, wir sind immerhin alle an der Unordnung schuld. „Ich kann meine Arbeit frei gestalten und Ideen ausprobieren." Lea: Oh ja, das genieße ich auch sehr. Aber auch die Arbeitszeiten, die ich mir ziemlich frei einteilen kann, sind super, ob es jetzt um den Arbeitsbeginn oder um das Homeoffice geht. Außerdem werden mir viele Möglichkeiten gelassen, meine Arbeit frei zu gestalten und meine Ideen auszuprobieren. Julika: Es ist es auf der einen Seite schon anstrengender als noch zu Hause, aber wir haben dafür jetzt viel mehr Freiheiten, uns die Zeit selber einzuteilen. Man muss nicht mehr sofort springen, wenn Mama mal was sagt. Seitdem es die Corona-Beschränkungen gibt, habe ich gemerkt, wie wichtig mir die Freiheit ist, mich mit Freunden treffen zu können, zum Volleyball zu gehen oder einfach mal entspannt ins Kino. Jakob: Eigentlich schon, aber zurzeit ist das ja nicht mehr ganz so einfach mit der freien Zeiteinteilung und dem Ausprobieren auf der Arbeit, da viele Kurse und ­Veranstaltungen wegen Corona ausfallen müssen. Da gehen uns leider echt viele Erfahrungen verloren. Julika: Ja, das ist wirklich schade. Seitdem es die ganzen Corona-Beschränkungen gibt, habe ich gemerkt, wie wichtig mir die Freiheit ist, mich mit all meinen Freunden treffen zu können, zum Volleyball zu gehen oder einfach mal entspannt ins ­Kino. Aber wir haben eben eine große Verantwortung zu tragen, um die Sicherheit aller anderen zu schützen. „Freiheit und Sicherheit sind echt eng miteinander verbandelt." Lea: Ja total. Es ist ja zum Beispiel für eine gute Erziehung wichtig, von den Eltern Wurzeln und Flügel mit auf den Weg zu bekommen. Auf der einen Seite muss man sich sicher und geborgen fühlen durch eine Familie, die einem Halt gibt und in schwierigen Situationen des Lebens unterstützt. Aber man muss auch die Möglichkeit haben, sich auszuprobieren, um über sich hinauswachsen zu können. Und wenn man mal zu hoch geflogen ist und sich übernommen hat, fängt einen die Familie wieder auf. Jakob: Findet ihr es nicht auch super interessant, dass Freiheit und Sicherheit echt eng miteinander verbandelt sind, dass erst die Kombination von beiden für ein zufrieden stellendes Leben sorgt? Julika: Genau! Und bei der eigenen Gestaltung des Lebens ist es wichtig, von der Familie eine Art „moralischen Kompass" zu bekommen. Dieser leitet uns in unserem Leben und verhindert, dass wir unsere Freiheit ausnutzen. Denn meine Freiheit endet da, wo die Sicherheit oder Freiheit anderer gefährdet wird.

In this context, the consortium formed by DAM, CALAGUA, and LAGEP are performing the PHORWater project which suggests P recovery as struvite (MgNH₄PO₄·6H₂O) using the sludge supernatant flows. The project will contribute to the development and application of techniques of P management in those WWTPs that have enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) and anaerobic digestion for sludge stability. The main objective of PHORWater is to demonstrate, at pre-industrial scale, the viability and sustainability of the correct management of the P in a WWTP obtaining struvite by crystallization. METHODOLOGY The project takes place at El Cidacos WWTP (Calahorra, La Rioja, SPAIN) with 23,000 m³/d capacity, which has an activated sludge process (A2O configuration) and anaerobic digestion of the primary and secondary sludge (see Figure 1). RESULTS Between November 2013 and February 2014 took place the “integral management of the WWTP for the optimal phosphorus recovery” action by 5 exhaustive sampling campaigns on 16 points along the water and sludge lines (Figure 1b). The main results are: - Development of a “Manual of characterization of WWTP” which describes the characteristics of each points and the required parameters to be analyzed in each one of them. - The water line of the WWTP presents good yields of phosphorus removal: - Between 81 and 96%. - The main P loss point at the WWTP is the anaerobic digester. - Between 8 and 12 g of P precipitated by kg of treated sludge. - Around 60-80% of the P entering this unit precipitates. - The maximum availability of P (phosphate to be recovered) is placed in the mixing chamber. - P available in the mixing chamber over triples the incoming flow. CONCLUSION The main outcomes during the analysis of the current management of the wastewater treatment plant are: - There are good yields of P removal in the water line, which is key to ensure its recovery. - The loss of P in the digester, associated with poor sludge stability, was estimated between 8 and 12 g of P per kg of treated sludge. - Only between 20 and 32% of P reaching the sludge line could be available to be recovered. - Phosphorus recovery has to go through the optimization of the separation of phosphate released into the mixing chamber.

INTRODUCTION The adequate management of phosphorus (P) (essential resource for life) as well as the problems associated to its presence in wastewater requires the development of a sustainable management (social, economic and environmental) of this resource in the WWTPs. In this context, the consortium formed by DAM, CALAQUA, and IAEFP are performing the PHORWater project which suggests P recovery as struvite (MgNH₄PO₄·6H₂O) using the sludge supernatant’s flow. The project is focused on the optimization of the process and the validation of the recovery of P from the effluents of WWTPs that have enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) and anaerobic digestion for sludge stability. The main objective of PHORWater is to demonstrate, at pre-industrial scale, the viability and sustainability of the correct management of the P in a WWTP obtaining struvite by crystallization. METHODOLOGY The project takes place at El Cridador WWTP (Gallarana, La Rioja, Spain), with 22,000 m³/d capacity which has an activated sludge process (A2O configuration) and anaerobic digestion of the primary and secondary sludge (see Figure 1). RESULTS Between November 2013 and February 2014 took place the “Integral management of the WWTP for the optimal phosphorus recovery” action by 5 exhaustive sampling campaigns on 18 points along the water and sludge lines (Figure 1b). The main results are: - Development of a Manual of characterization of WWTP which identifies, measures and controls points and the required parameters to be analyzed in each one of them. - The water line of the WWTP presents good yields of phosphorus recovery: - Between 61 and 86%. - The man is the key point in the WWTP is the anaerobic digester. - Between 8 and 12 kg of P precipitated per kg of treated sludge. - Around 6C-80% of the P entering this unit is recovered. - The maximum availability of P (phosphate to be recovered) is placed in the mixing chamber. - P available in the mixing chamber over triples the incoming P. CONCLUSION The main outcomes during the analysis of the current management of the wastewater treatment plant are: - There are good yields of P removed in the water line, which is a key point in the recovery. - The loss of P in the digester, associated with precipitation processes, is assumed between 8 and 12 kg of P net per kg of treated sludge. - Only between 20 and 32% of reaching the sludge line could be available to be recovered. - Phosphorus recovery has to go through the optimization of the extraction of phosphate released into the mixing chamber.

boycotts of Haitian trade. In 1806, trade between the United States and Haiti was surcease, but U.S. ships could dock freely at Haitian ports, but Haitian ships were banned from U.S. ports. This decimated the Haitian economy, which was weakened by their fight for independence starting 15 years earlier. This embargo let U.S. merchants dictate the terms of trade between the two countries establishing a new form of colonization. Jefferson along with a strong slave holding contingent in the U.S. government steadfastly refused to acknowledge Haiti as a true country until 1862 when President Abraham Lincoln finally granted the country diplomatic recognition. Meanwhile, in 1825, in return for conditional recognition President Jean-Pierre Boyer proposed 150 million gold francs to France as remuneration and to lower customs duties for French products to half those of any other nation, which was lowered to 60 million francs in 1838, but the damage was already done to Haiti. The money was earmarked to remunerate the slave owners and their heirs for their “losses” during Haiti’s revolution. The freedom they acquired with their blood also came with a stiff monetary price. After France’s conditional recognition, Great Britain and the other European powers quickly followed suit, but the United States refused. France’s financial hold on Haiti continued until the first U.S. occupation in 1915 led by President Woodrow Wilson. Haiti was so handcuffed by that prior contractual agreement that when it set up its Banque National d’Haiti in the 1880s, it was done with French capital and French bank officers. “Boyer shared Pétion’s conciliatory approach to governance, but he lacked his stature as a leader. The length of Boyer’s rule (1818-43) reflected his political acumen, but he accomplished little. Boyer faced drastically diminished productivity as a result of Pétion’s economic policies. Most Haitians had fallen into comfortable isolation on their small plots of land, content to eke out a quiet living after years of turmoil and duress. As the Haitian economy stagnated under Boyer, Haitian society ossified. The lines separating mulattoes and blacks sharpened, despite Boyer’s efforts to appoint blacks to responsible positions in government. The overwhelming rate of illiteracy among even well-to-do blacks foiled Boyer’s intentions.” These types of socio-economic and cultural problems have persisted through the centuries. From 1843-1915 Haiti had 22 different presidents. The majority of them died in office, were overthrown, or assassinated. It was one of the

Doors Open: 7:30 AM Opening and Welcome 8:00 AM – 8:15 AM Environment Health and Safety – (Health, Safety and Nutrition) 1 STARS This training is especially important to teach the participants to understand ways to keep their programs safe and healthy environments for the children. The knowledge to be successful on a daily bases by implementing healthy and safety guidelines that will be introduced to the participants during this session. Some of the regulations will be similar to what we have done in the past but with the knowledge of the new rule's providers will ask questions to have a better understanding. Professional Development (Professional Development) 1 STARS This session will review the value of ongoing professional development for early learning professionals. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their professional role and consider professional development pathways for a plan that suits their unique needs. At the end DCYF will have a question and answer time so providers will leave with supportive guidance. Exclusive Rules to Early Learning Programs (Program Planning and Development) 1 STARS The Early Start Act required that DCYF consider the difference when writing the rules for a family home environment and a center environment. This session will highlight various rules that are exclusive only to certain environments. Knowing these differences will help the children adjust and learn in a mindful learning environment. Providers will have opportunity to ask questions to receive a better understanding. WAC Activities (Interactive Stations) (Program Planning and Development) 1 STARS This session will encourage all participants to engage CHILDREN in active learning through a hands-on approach found in a variety of adult learning styles. These activities can be used for early learning programs submersing their own staff into the rules through creative and fun methods. Learning these hands-on styles will guide the participants to make fun and engaging to the children and facilitating a foundation of quality care and emphasis on program leadership/management. A prepared and organized operation leads to the ability to focus on quality care and practice new skills within the context of individual differences and values, such as cultural perspectives and learning styles.

CÓMO FUNCIONAN LOS SWITCHES LAN Contenidos Introducción Una red típica consta de nodos (computadoras), un medio de conexión (por medio de cableado o inalámbrico), y equipamiento de redes especializado como routers o hubs. En el caso de la Internet, todas estas piezas funcionando juntas le permiten a su computadora enviar información a otra computadora, ¡que podría estar al otro lado del mundo! Los switches son una parte fundamental de la mayoría de las redes. Éstos hacen posible que varios usuarios envíen información a través de una red al mismo tiempo sin hacerse disminuir la velocidad de transmisión entre sí. Al igual que los routers permiten a diferentes redes comunicarse entre sí, los switches permiten a diferentes nodos (un punto de conexión de la red, típicamente una computadora) de una red comunicarse directamente entre sí de manera pareja y eficiente. Imagen cortesía de Cisco Systems, Inc. Ilustración de un switch Cisco Catalyst. Existen muchos tipos diferentes de switches y redes. Los switches que proporcionan una conexión separada para cada nodo en la red interna de una compañía se denominan switches LAN. Esencialmente, un switch LAN crea una serie de redes instantáneas que contienen sólo los dos dispositivos que se comunican entre sí en ese momento en particular. Nos concentraremos en las redes Ethernet que utilizan switches LAN. Aprenderá qué es un switch LAN y cómo funciona el bridging transparente. También aprenderá acerca de las VLANs, troncales y spanning trees. Agregado de Switches En el tipo de red más básico que se encuentra hoy en día, los nodos simplemente se conectan mediante el uso de hubs. A medida que una red crece, surgen algunos problemas potenciales con esta configuración: * Escalabilidad: En una red de hubs, el ancho de banda compartido limitado hace difícil el acomodar un crecimiento significativo sin sacrificar el desempeño. Las aplicaciones de hoy en día necesitan más ancho de banda que nunca antes. Muy a menudo, la totalidad de la red debe rediseñarse periódicamente para dar lugar al crecimiento. * Latencia: La cantidad de tiempo que le lleva a un paquete el llegar a su destino. Puesto que cada nodo de una red basada en hubs tiene que esperar una oportunidad de transmitir para evitar las colisiones, la latencia puede incrementarse significativamente a medida que se agregan más nodos. O si alguien está transmitiendo un archivo grande a través de la red, entonces todos los otros nodos están esperando la oportunidad de enviar sus propios paquetes. Probablemente usted ha visto esto antes en el trabajo. Está intentando acceder a un servidor o a la Internet y súbitamente todo pierde velocidad. * Fallo en la Red: En una red típica, un dispositivo en un hub puede ocasionar problemas para otros dispositivos conectados al hub debido a configuraciones de velocidad erróneas (100Mbps en un hub de10Mbps) o broadcasts excesivos. Los switches pueden configurarse para limitar los niveles de broadcast. * Colisiones: Ethernet utiliza un proceso denominado Acceso múltiple con detección de portadora y detección de colisiones (CSMA/CD) para comunicarse a través de la red. Bajo CSMA/CD, un nodo no enviará un paquete hacia el exterior a menos que la red esté libre de tráfico. Si dos nodos envían paquetes al mismo tiempo, tiene lugar una colisión y los paquetes se pierden. Entonces ambos nodos esperan una cantidad aleatoria de tiempo y retransmiten los paquetes. Cualquier parte de la red donde exista una posibilidad de que los paquetes provenientes de dos o más nodos interfieran entre sí se considera parte del mismo dominio de colisión. Una red con una gran cantidad de nodos en el mismo segmento a menudo tendrá muchas colisiones y por lo tanto un gran dominio de colisión. Mientras que los hubs proporcionan una manera fácil de escalar y acortar la distancia que los paquetes deben recorrer para llegar desde un nodo a otro, no dividen la red real en segmentos discretos. En este punto es donde intervienen los switches. Imagine que cada vehículo es un paquete de datos esperando su oportunidad para continuar su viaje. Pensemos en un hub como en una intersección de cuatro sentidos donde todo el mundo tiene que detenerse. Si más de un auto llega a la intersección al mismo tiempo, tienen que esperar su turno para proceguir. Pero un switch es como una intersección de tipo cruce de trébol. Cada auto puede dirigirse hacia una rampa de salida para llegar a su destino sin tener que detenerse y esperar a que pase otro tráfico. Ahora imaginemos lo que pasaría si una docena o incluso cien caminos se intersectaran en un único punto. La cantidad de espera y el potencial de que exista una colisión se incrementa significativamente si cada auto tiene que verificar todos los otros caminos antes de continuar. Pero, ¿no sería asombroso si uno pudiera dirigirse hacia una rampa de salida desde cualquiera de esos caminos hacia el camino de su elección? ¡Eso es exactamente lo que hace un switch con el tráfico de red! Una diferencia vital entre un hub y un switch es que todos los nodos conectados a un hub comparten el ancho de banda entre sí mientras que un dispositivo conectado a un puerto de switch tiene la totalidad del ancho de banda para sí mismo. Por ejemplo, si 10 nodos se están comunicando utilizando un hub en una red de 10 Mbps, entonces cada nodo puede sólo obtener una porción de los 10 Mbps si otros nodos del hub desean comunicarse también. Pero con un switch, cada nodo podría eventualmente comunicarse con los 10 Mbps completos. Pensemos en nuestra analogía del camino. Si todo el tráfico llega a una intersección común, entonces tiene que compartir esa intersección con todo el resto. Pero un cruce de trébol permite que todo el tráfico continúe a toda velocidad desde un camino hasta el siguiente. En una red completamente conmutada, los switches reemplazan a todos los hubs de una red Ethernet con un segmento dedicado para cada nodo. Estos segmentos se conectan a un switch, que soporta múltiples segmentos dedicados (a veces por cientos). Puesto que los únicos dispositivos de cada segmento son el switch y el nodo, el switch recoge cada transmisión antes de que alcance a otro nodo. El switch luego envía el frame a través del segmento apropiado. Puesto que cualquier segmento contiene sólo un único nodo, el frame sólo llega al receptor al que estaba destinado. Esto permite que tengan lugar muchas conversaciones simultáneamente en una red conmutada. La conmutación permite a una red mantener Ethernet full-duplex. Antes de la conmutación, Ethernet era half-duplex, lo que significa que sólo un dispositivo de la red podía transmitir en un momento determinado. En una red completamente conmutada, los nodos sólo se comunican con el switch y nunca directamente entre sí. Utilizando nuestra analogía del camino, half-duplex es similar al problema de un carril único, como en el caso en que un camino que está en construcción cierra el uso de un carril de un camino de dos carriles. El tráfico intenta utilizar el mismo carril en ambas direcciones. Esto significa que el tráfico que va en un sentido debe esperar hasta que el tráfico proveniente de la otra dirección se detenga. ¡De otro modo, chocarían de frente! Las redes completamente conmutadas emplean cableado de par trenzado o de fibra óptica, y ambos utilizan conductores separados para enviar y recibir datos. En este tipo de entorno, los nodos Ethernet pueden desistir del proceso de detección de colisiones y transmitir a discreción, ya que son los únicos dispositivos que potencialmente pueden acceder al medio. En otras palabras, el tráfico que fluye en cada dirección tiene un carril para sí. Esto permite a los nodos transmitir al switch al mismo tiempo que el switch transmite hacia ellos, logrando un entorno libre de colisiones. La transmisión en ambas direcciones también puede duplicar eficazmente la velocidad aparente de la red cuando dos nodos se encuentran intercambiando información. Por ejemplo, si la velocidad de la red es de 10 Mbps entonces cada nodo puede transmitir a 10Mbps al mismo tiempo. La mayoría de las redes no son completamente conmutadas a causa de los costos en los cuales se incurre al reemplazar los hubs con switches. En lugar de esto, se utiliza una combinación de switches y hubs para crear una red eficaz aunque eficiente en costo. Por ejemplo, una compañía puede tener hubs que conecten a las computadoras de cada departamento y un switch que conecte todos los hubs a nivel departamental. Tecnologías de Conmutación Puede apreciarse que un switch tiene el potencial de cambiar radicalmente la forma en la cual los nodos se comunican entre sí. Pero uno puede preguntarse en qué se diferencia de un router. Los switches usualmente funcionan en la Capa 2 (de Datos o de Enlace de Datos) del Modelo de Referencia OSI utilizando direcciones MAC mientras que los routers funcionan en la Capa 3 (de Red) con direcciones de Capa 3 (IP, IPX o Appletalk dependiendo de qué protocolos de Capa 3 se estén utilizando). El algoritmo utilizado por los switches para decidir cómo enviar paquetes es diferente a los algoritmos utilizados por los routers para enviar paquetes. Una de estas diferencias en los algoritmos entre switches y routers es cómo se manejan los broadcasts. En cualquier red, el concepto de un paquete de broadcast es vital para la operabilidad de la misma. Ya sea que un dispositivo necesite enviar información pero no sepa a quién debería enviarla, envía un broadcast. Por ejemplo, cada vez que una nueva computadora u otro dispositivo entra a la red, envía un paquete de broadcast para anunciar su presencia. Los otros nodos (tal como un servidor de dominio) pueden agregar la computadora a su lista buscadora (semejante a una agenda de direcciones) y comunicarse en forma directa con dicha computadora desde ese punto en adelante. Los broadcasts se utilizan cada vez que un dispositivo necesita hacer un anuncio al resto de la red no está seguro de quién deberá ser el receptor de la información. Un hub o un switch pasarán cualquier paquete de broadcast que reciban a todos los otros segmentos del dominio de broadcast pero un router no. Pensemos nuevamente en nuestra intersección de cuatro sentidos. En nuestra analogía, todo el tráfico atravesaba la intersección sin importar hacia dónde se dirigía. Ahora imaginemos que esta intersección es una frontera internacional. Para atravesar la intersección, se debe proporcionar al guardián de la frontera la dirección específica hacia la cual uno se dirige. Si no se tiene un destino específico, entonces el guardia no nos dejará pasar. Un router funciona de esta forma. Sin la dirección específica de otro dispositivo, no dejará pasar al paquete de datos. Esto es algo bueno para mantener a las redes separadas la una de la otra pero no es tan bueno cuando se desea establecer una conversación entre diferentes partes de la misma red. En este punto es cuando intervienen los switches. Los switches LAN se basan en la Conmutación de paquetes. El switch establece una conexión entre dos segmentos lo suficientemente largos como para enviar el paquete actual. Los paquetes entrantes (parte de un frame Ethernet) se guardan en un área de memoria temporaria (buffer), la dirección MAC contenida en el encabezado del frame se lee y luego se compara con una lista de direcciones mantenida en la tabla de búsqueda del switch. En una LAN basada en Ethernet, un frame Ethernet contiene un paquete normal como payload del frame con un encabezado especial que incluye la información de la dirección MAC relativa al origen y el destino del paquete. Los switches basados en paquetes utilizan uno de los siguientes tres métodos para enrutar el tráfico: * Método de corte * Almacenamiento y envío * Libre de fragmentos Los switches por método de corte leen la dirección MAC tan pronto como el switch detecta un paquete. Después de almacenar los seis bytes que componen la información acerca de la dirección, inmediatamente comienzan a enviar el paquete al nodo de destino, aunque el resto del paquete esté entrando al switch. Un switch que utiliza almacenamiento y envío guardará el paquete entero en el buffer y verificará que no existan errores CRC u otros problemas. Si el paquete tiene un error, luego se lo descarta. De otro modo, el switch verifica la dirección MAC y envía el paquete hacia el nodo de destino. Muchos switches combinan ambos métodos utilizando el método de corte hasta alcanzar un determinado nivel de errores, luego cambian a almacenamiento y envío. Muy pocos switches son estrictamente por método de corte ya que este método no proporciona corrección de errores. Un método menos común es libre de fragmentos. Funciona como el método de corte pero almacena los primeros 64 bytes del paquete antes de enviarlo. La razón para ello es que la mayoría de los errores y colisiones tienen lugar durante los 64 bytes iniciales de un paquete. Los switches LAN varían en su diseño físico. Actualmente, existen tres configuraciones populares en uso: * Memoria compartida – Almacena todos los paquetes entrantes en un buffer de memoria común compartido por todos los puertos del swith (conexiones de entrada y salida), luego los envía al puerto correcto para el nodo de destino. * Matrix – Este tipo de switch tiene una grilla interna con los puertos de entrada y de salida cruzándose entre sí. Cuando se detecta un paquete en un puerto de entrada, la dirección MAC se compara con la tabla de búsqueda para encontrar el puerto de salida apropiado. El switch efectúa entonces una conexión en la grilla en el punto donde se intersectan estos dos puertos. * Arquitectura de bus – En lugar de una grilla, una ruta de transmisión interna (bus común) es compartida por todos los puertos que utilicen TDMA. Un switch basado en esta configuración tiene un buffer de memoria dedicado para cada puerto y un ASIC para controlar el acceso interno al bus. Bridging Transparente La mayoría de los switches LAN Ethernet utilizan un sistema muy interesante denominado bridging transparente para crear sus tablas de búsqueda de direcciones. El bridging transparente es una tecnología que permite a un switch aprender todo lo que necesita acerca de la ubicación de los nodos en la red sin que el administrador de la misma tenga que hacer nada. El bridging transparente tiene cinco partes: * Aprendizaje * Flooding * Filtrado * Envío * Envejecimiento He aquí cómo funciona: * El switch se agrega a la red y los diversos segmentos se conectan a los puertos del switch. * Una computadora (Nodo A) del primer segmento (Segmento A) envía datos a una computadora (Nodo B) que se encuentra en otro segmento (Segmento C). * El switch obtiene el primer paquete de datos del Nodo A. Lee la dirección MAC y la guarda en la tabla de búsqueda para el Segmento A. El switch ahora sabe dónde encontrar el Nodo A cada vez que un paquete está dirigido al mismo. Este proceso se denomina aprendizaje. * Puesto que el switch no sabe dónde se encuentra el Nodo B, envía el paquete a todos los segmentos excepto a aquél al que ha llegado (Segmento A). Cuando un switch envía un paquete hacia todos los segmentos para encontrar un nodo específico, esto se denomina flooding. * El Nodo B obtiene el paquete y envía un paquete de regreso al Nodo A como confirmación. * El paquete proveniente del Nodo B llega al switch. Ahora el switch puede agregar la dirección MAC del Nodo B a la tabla de búsqueda para el Segmento C. Puesto que el switch ya conoce la dirección del Nodo A, envía el paquete directamente hacia el mismo. Puesto que el Nodo A está en un segmento diferente que el Nodo B, el switch debe conectar los dos segmentos para enviar el paquete. Esto se denomina envío. * El siguiente paquete desde el Nodo A hacia el Nodo B llega al switch. El switch ahora tiene la dirección del Nodo B también, de modo tal que envía el paquete directamente al Nodo B. * El Nodo C envía información al switch para el Nodo A. El switch verifica la dirección MAC del Nodo C y la agrega a la tabla de búsqueda del Segmento A. El switch ya tiene la dirección del Nodo A y determina que ambos nodos se encuentran en el mismo segmento. Por lo tanto, no necesita conectar el Segmento A a otro segmento para que los datos viajen desde el Nodo C hasta el Nodo A. Por lo tanto, el switch ignorará los paquetes entre nodos ubicados en el mismo segmento. Esto es el filtrado. * El aprendizaje y el flooding continúan a medida que el switch agrega nodos a las tablas de búsqueda. La mayoría de los switches tienen la suficiente cantidad de memoria como para mantener tablas de búsqueda, pero borran la información más antigua de modo tal que el switch no pierda tiempo buscando entre direcciones antiguas. Para optimizar el uso de esta memoria, los switches utilizan una técnica denominada envejecimiento. Básicamente, cuando una se agrega una entrada relativa a un nodo a la tabla de búsqueda, se le adjudica una etiqueta temporal. Cada vez que un paquete se recibe desde un nodo, la etiqueta temporal se actualiza. El switch tiene un temporizador configurable por el usuario que borra la entrada después de que haya transcurrido una determinada longitud de tiempo sin actividad proveniente de ese nodo. Esto libera valiosos recursos de memoria para otras entradas. Como puede verse, ¡ el bridging transparente es una manera muy buena y esencialmente libre de mantenimiento para agregar toda la información que un switch necesita para hacer su trabajo! En nuestro ejemplo, dos nodos comparten cada segmento. En una red conmutada LAN ideal, cada nodo tendría su propio segmento. Esto eliminaría la posibilidad de que existan colisiones y también la necesidad del filtrado. Nótese que mientras que un nodo del Segmento A está intercambiando información con un nodo del Segmento B a 10 Mbps, un nodo del Segmento C puede comunicarse con un nodo del Segmento D también a 10 Mbps. Redundancia y Tormentas de Broadcasts Cuando anteriormente hablábamos acerca de las redes de bus y de anillo, un problema que surgió era la posibilidad de un único punto de fallo. En una red en estrella o en estrella de bus el punto con mayor potencial para dejar inactiva a toda o parte de la red es un switch o un hub. Observemos el siguiente ejemplo: En este ejemplo, si el switch A o el C fallan entonces los nodos conectados a ese switch en particular se ven afectados pero los nodos en los otros dos switches aún pueden comunicarse. No obstante, si el switch B falla entonces toda la red queda inactiva. ¿Qué sucede si agregamos otro segmento a nuestra red que conecte los switches A y C? Incluso si uno de los switches falla, la red continuará. Esto proporciona redundancia y elimina eficazmente el único punto de fallo. Ahora se nos presenta un nuevo problema. En la sección anterior, descubrimos cómo aprenden los switches dónde están ubicados los nodos. Con todos los switches conectados ahora en un bucle, un paquete proveniente de un nodo podría posiblemente llegar a un switch desde dos segmentos diferentes. Por ejemplo, imagine que el Nodo B está conectado al Switch A y necesita comunicarse con el Nodo A que se encuentra en el Segmento B. El Switch A no sabe quién es el Nodo A, de modo tal que hace flood del paquete. El paquete viaja a través del Segmento A o el Segmento C hacia los otros dos switches (B y C). El Switch B agregará el Nodo B a la tabla de búsqueda que mantiene para el Segmento A mientras que el Switch C lo agregará a la tabla de búsqueda para el Segmento C. Supongamos que ninguno de los switches ha aprendido la dirección para el Nodo A todavía. Harán flood al Segmento B buscando el Nodo A. Cada switch tomará el paquete enviado por el otro switch y hará flood del mismo nuevamente de forma inmediata ya que aún no saben quién es el Nodo A. El Switch A recibirá el paquete proveniente de cada segmento y hará flood del mismo hacia el otro segmento. Esto ocasiona una tormenta de broadcasts ya que los paquetes son transmitidos como broadcast, recibidos y retransmitidos como broadcast por cada switch resultando en una congestión de la red potencialmente severa. Lo cual nos conduce hacia los spanning trees... Spanning Trees Para evitar las tormentas de broadcast y otros efectos colaterales no deseados del empleo de bucles, Digital Equipment Corporation creó el Protocolo Spanning Tree (STP) que fue estandarizado como especificación 802.1d por el Instituto de Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica (IEEE). Esencialmente, un spanning tree utiliza el algoritmo spanning tree (STA) que detecta que el switch tiene más de un camino para comunicarse con un nodo, determina cuál de ellos es el mejor y bloquea la(s) otra(s) ruta(s). Lo bueno es que mantiene un rastreo de la(s) otra(s) ruta(s) sólo en caso de que la ruta principal no esté disponible. He aquí cómo funciona STP: * A cada switch se le asigna un grupo de IDs, una para el switch en sí y otra para cada puerto del switch. El identificador del switch, denominado ID de Bridge (BID) tiene 8 bytes de largo y contiene una prioridad de bridge (2 bytes) junto con una de las direcciones MAC del switch (6 bytes). Cada ID de Puerto tiene 16 bits de largo y consta de dos partes, una configuración de prioridad de 6 bits y un número de puerto de 10 bits. * Se le adjudica un valor de costo de la ruta a cada puerto. El costo se basa típicamente en una guía establecida como parte de 802.1d. De acuerdo a la especificación original, el costo es de 1000 Mbps (1 gigabit por segundo) dividido por el ancho de banda del segmento conectado al puerto. Por lo tanto, una conexión de 10 Mbps tendría un costo de 100 (1000 dividido 10). Para compensar por la creciente velocidad de las redes más allá del rango de un gigabit, el costo estándar ha sido levemente modificado. Los nuevos valores de costo son: También deberá notarse que el Costo de la Ruta puede ser un valor arbitrario asignado por el administrador de la red en lugar de los valores de costo estándar. * Cada switch comienza un proceso de descubrimiento para escoger qué rutas de la red para cada segmento deberá utilizar. Esta información es compartida entre todos los switches que utilicen frames de red especiales denominados bridge protocol data units (BPDU). Las partes de una BPDU son: I BID Raíz – Ésta es la BID del Bridge Raíz actual. I Costo de la Ruta al Bridge Raíz – Determina cuán lejos se encuentra el Bridge Raíz. Por ejemplo, si los datos tienen que viajar a lo largo de tres segmentos de 100 Mbps para llegar al Bridge Raíz entonces el costo es 38 (19 + 19 + 0). El segmento adjunto al Bridge Raíz normalmente tendrá un Costo de Ruta de cero. I BID Emisora – La BID del switch que envía la BPDU. I ID de Puerto – El puerto real en el switch desde el cual se envió la BPDU. Todos los switches están enviando constantemente BPDUs entre sí intentando determinar la mejor ruta entre diversos segmentos. Cuando un switch recibe una BPDU proveniente de otro switch que sea mejor que aquél para el cual está haciendo broadcasting para el mismo segmento, dejará de hacer broadcasting de su BPDU hacia el mismo. En lugar de eso, almacenará la BPDU del otro switch para referencia y para hacer broadcastings a segmentos inferiores tales como los segmentos que están localizados más lejos del bridge raíz. * Un Bridge Raíz se elige basándose en los resultados del proceso de la BPDU entre los switches. ¡Inicialmente, cada switch se considera a sí mismo el Bridge Raíz! Cuando un switch se enciende por primera vez en la red, envía una BPDU son su propia BID como BID Raíz. Cuando los otros switches reciben la BPDU, comparan la BID con la que ya tienen almacenada como BID Raíz. Si la nueva BID Raíz tiene un valor inferior, reemplazan a la guardada. Pero si la BID Raíz guardada es inferior, se envía una BPDU al nuevo switch con esta BID como la BID Raíz. Cuando el nuevo switch recibe la BPDU, se da cuenta de que no es el Bridge Raíz y reemplaza la BID Raíz de su tabla con la que acaba de recibir. El resultado es que el switch que tiene la BID más baja es elegido por los otros switches como Bridge Raíz. * Basándose en la ubicación del Bridge Raíz, los otros switches determinan cuál de sus puertos tiene el costo de ruta más bajo hacia el Bridge Raíz. Estos puertos se denominan Puertos Raíz y cada switch (que no sea el Bridge Raíz actual) debe tener uno. * Los switches determinan quién tendrá Puertos Designados. Un Puerto Designado es la conexión que se utiliza para enviar y recibir paquetes en un segmento específico. ¡Con un solo Puerto Designado por segmento, se resuelven todos los problemas de bucles! Los Puertos Designados se seleccionan basándose en el costo de ruta más bajo al Bridge Raíz para un segmento. Puesto que el Bridge Raíz tendrá un costo de ruta de "0", todos los puerto que se encuentren en él que estén conectados a segmentos se convertirán en Puertos Designados. Para los otros switches, el costo de la ruta se compara para un segmento dado. Si se determina que un puerto tiene un costo de ruta más bajo, entonces se convierte en el Puerto Designado para ese segmento. Si dos o más puertos tienen el mismo costo de ruta, entonces se elige el switch con la BID más baja. * Una vez que el Puerto Designado para un segmento de red ha sido escogido, todos los otros puertos que se conectan a ese segmento se convierten en Puertos no Designados. Impiden que el tráfico de la red tome esa ruta para que sólo pueda acceder a ese segmento a través del Puerto Designado. Cada switch tiene una tabla de BPDUs que actualiza continuamente. La red está configurada ahora como un único spanning tree con el Bridge Raíz como troncal y todos los otros switches como ramas. Cada switch se comunica con el Bridge Raíz a través de los Puertos Raíz y con cada segmento a través de los Puertos Designados para mantener una red libre de bucles. En el caso de que el Bridge Raíz comience a fallar o tenga problemas de red, STP permite a los otros switches el reconfigurar inmediatamente la red con otro switch actuando como Bridge Raíz. Este asombroso proceso proporciona a una compañía la capacidad de contar un una red compleja que sea tolerante a los fallos y aún así sea fácil de mantener. Routers y Conmutación de Capa 3 Mientras que la mayoría de los switches operan en la Capa de datos (Capa 2) del Modelo de Referencia OSI, algunos incorporan las características de un router y operan también en la Capa de red (Capa 3). De hecho, un switch de Capa 3 es increíblemente similar a un router. Cuando un router recibe un paquete, observa las direcciones de origen y destino de Capa 3 (la Capa de Red) para determinar la ruta que el paquete deberá tomar. Esto se considera actividad de networking de Capa 3 (de Red). Un switch estándar se basa en las direcciones MAC para determinar el origen y el destino de un paquete, lo cual es networking de Capa 2 (de Datos). La diferencia fundamental entre un router y un switch de Capa 3 es que los switches de Capa 3 tienen un hardware optimizado para hacer pasar los datos tan rápido como los switches de Capa 2, y aún así toman decisiones acerca de cómo transmitir el tráfico en la Capa 3, al igual que lo haría un router. Dentro del entorno LAN, un switch de Capa 3 usualmente es más rápido que un router porque está construido sobre hardware de conmutación. De hecho, muchos de los switches de Capa 3 de Cisco son realmente routers que operan más rápido porque están construidos en base a hardaware de "conmutación" con chips personalizados dentro de la caja. La coincidencia de patrones y la aplicación de la caché en los switches de Capa 3 son similares a la coincidencia de patrones y a la aplicación de la caché en un router. Ambos utilizan un protocolo de enrutamiento y una tabla de enrutamiento para determinar la mejor ruta. No obstante, un switch de Capa 3 tiene la capacidad para reprogramar el hardware dinámicamente con la información de enrutamiento de Capa 3 actual. Es esto lo que permite un procesamiento de paquetes más rápido. En los switches de Capa 3 actuales como el Cisco Catalyst 6000, la información recibida de los protocolos de enrutamiento se utiliza para actualizar las tablas de caché del hardware. El 6000 es una muy buena manera de conectarse a la Internet porque tiene tarjetas WAN, pero los routers simples de diversos tamaños usualmente son buenos para conectarse a la Internet basándose en el flujo de tráfico y en el presupuesto. Un punto importante para ser notado, es que los routers son necesarios al establecer una comunicación entre dos VLANs... VLANs Al crecer las redes en tamaño y complejidad, muchas compañías han acudido a las Redes de Área Local Virtuales (VLANs) para proporcionar alguna manera de estructurar su crecimiento en forma lógica. Básicamente, una VLAN es un conjunto de nodos que se agrupan en un único dominio de broadcast que se basa en algo más que la ubicación física. Ya aprendimos antes acerca de los broadcasts y cómo un router no los pasa. Un dominio de broadcast es una red (o porción de una red) que recibirá un paquete de broadcast proveniente de cualquier nodo ubicado dentro de esa red. En una red típica, todo lo que se encuentra en el mismo lado del router es parte del mismo dominio de broadcast. Un switch en el que se han implementado VLANs tiene ahora múltiples dominios de broadcast de manera similar a un router. Pero aún necesita un router para enrutar de una VLAN a otra, porque el switch no puede hacerlo por sí mismo. He aquí algunas razones comunes por las cuales una compañía podría tener VLANs: * Seguridad – La separación de sistemas con datos sensibles del resto de la red disminuye la oportunidad de que alguien obtenga acceso a información que no están autorizados para ver. * Proyectos/Aplicaciones especiales – La gestión de un proyecto o el trabajo con una aplicación especializada pueden simplificarse por medio del uso de una VLAN que reúna a todos los nodos requeridos. * Desempeño/Ancho de banda – Un monitoreo cuidadoso del uso de la red permite al administrador de la red crear VLANs que reduzcan la cantidad de saltos del router e incrementen el ancho de banda aparente para los usuarios de la red. * Broadcasts/Flujo del tráfico – Puesto que un principio de una VLAN es el hecho de que no pasa tráfico de broadcast a nodos que no sean parte de la VLAN, automáticamente reduce los broadcasts. Las listas de acceso proporcionan al administrador de red una manera de controlar quién ve qué tráfico de red. Una lista de acceso es una tabla que crea el administrador de red que coloca en una lista qué direcciones tienen acceso a dicha red. * Departamentos/Tipos de trabajos específicos – Las compañías pueden desear que las VLANs configuren departamentos que sean usuarios de la red con alta densidad (tales como Multimedia o Ingeniería) o una VLAN que atraviese departamentos que estén dedicados a tipos específicos de empleados (tales como los gerentes o la gente de ventas). Se puede crear una VLAN utilizando la mayoría de los switches simplemente haciendo log in al switch a través de Telnet e introduciendo los parámetros para la VLAN (asignaciones de nombre, dominio y puerto). Después de haber creado la VLAN, luego todos los segmentos de red conectados a los puertos asignados se convertirán en parte de dicha VLAN. Aunque se pueden tener más de una VLAN en un switch, éstas no pueden comunicarse directamente entre sí. Si lo hicieran acabarían con el propósito de tener una VLAN, que es aislar parte de una red. Comunicarse entre VLANs requiere el uso de un router. Las VLANs pueden abarcar múltiples switches y puede tener más de una VLAN en cada switch. Para que múltiples VLANs en múltiples switches puedan comunicarse a través de un único enlace entre los switches, se debe utilizar un proceso denominado trunking; trunking es la tecnología que permite a la información proveniente de múltiples VLANs el ser transportada a través de un solo enlace entre switches. El Protocolo de Trunking de VLAN (VTP) es el protocolo que utilizan los switches para comunicarse entre sí acerca de la configuración de la VLAN. En la imagen superior, cada switch tiene dos VLANs. En el primer switch, la VLAN A y la VLAN B se envían a través de un único puerto (troncal) tanto al router como a través de otro puerto al segundo switch. La VLAN C y la VLAN D son troncales desde el segundo switch al primer switch y a través del router. Este troncal puede transportar tráfico proveniente de las cuatro VLANs. El enlace troncal desde el primer switch al router también puede transportar a la totalidad de las 4 VLANs. De hecho, esta conexión al router realmente permite al router aparecer en la totalidad de las 4 VLANs, como si tuvieran 4 puertos físicos diferentes conectados al switch. Las VLANs pueden comunicarse entre sí a través de la conexión troncal entre los dos switches que utilizan el router. Por ejemplo, los datos de una computadora en la VLAN A que necesitan llegar a la computadora en la VLAN B (o la VLAN C o la VLAN D) deben viajar desde el switch al router y nuevamente al switch. A causa del algoritmo de bridging transparente y del troncal, ¡ambas PCs y el router piensan que están en el mismo segmento físico! Como se puede observar, los switches LAN son una tecnología asombrosa que realmente puede lograr una diferencia en la velocidad y la calidad de su red.
