---------- Forwarded message --------- From: r3.0 <hello(a)r3-0.org> Date: Wed, Oct 9, 2019 at 3:29 PM Subject: UNRISD Report Released; r3.0 in Keith Ambachtsheer's Monthly Letter; and other exciting developments To: Michel Bauwens <michelsub2004(a)gmail.com> Other exciting developments include Blueprint Working Groups launching, events such as #NewMetrics19, What Now?!, and a new Transformation Academy! View this email in your browser <https://mailchi.mp/r3-0/02october2019?e=e9fc303c86> <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> *Dear Michel,* What does it mean to be a Global Common Good? At a recent meeting in Amsterdam, Bill and Ralph were asked who has downloaded our Blueprints, and Ralph answered, "I have no idea. We don't track that information, because, as a Global Common Good, we don't want to put any barrier between our audience and our content." It also means that we partner broadly, in the spirit of our pre-competitive, market-making commitments. This month, we're glad to announce a number of new Advocation Partners, including our longtime friend John Fullerton of the Capital Institute, who keynoted <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> our 3rd International Conference in 2015 with the provocation of whether the bioregion is a more apt locus of attention than the corporation -- a notion that resonated with us deeply over the years. To get a sense of the depth of our connection, the Capital Institute figures into many of the newsletter items this month, which you can find bulleted below: - *UNRISD Report Released* - *Last Chance to Join Blueprint Working Groups* - *r3.0 in Keith Ambachtsheer's Monthly Letter* - *Next Transformation Academy in Rotterdam* - *Now What?! Weaving for Bioregional Regeneration* - *r3.0 at #NewMetrics19* - *Medium Article on r3.0's Phase Two * - *New Advocation Partners* Enjoy this month's newsletter! The r3.0 Operations Team *Alexandra, Bill, Cleophea, Peter & Ralph* UNRISD Report Released <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> The United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD) has released a report (available here <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…>) authored by r3.0 Senior Director Bill Baue that proposes a three-tiered typology of Sustainable Development Performance Indicators. The report is the first of several collaborations in this 4-year Indicators Project <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> -- Bill is already working on the second report in the series, which will propose Tier Two Contextualized Indicators corresponding to 33 Tier One Incrementalist Indicators from a July 2019 UNCTAD report <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…>. Bill will present on both his reports at an upcoming UNRISD Workshop in Montreal October 21/22, and we at r3.0 will integrate this material into our ongoing work around transformation. If you want to chime in on the online chatter around the report, please see the r3.0 twitter thread here <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> . <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> Last Chance! Join Blueprint Working Groups <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> Work has commenced on the first two Blueprints in Phase Two of our development, but there's still time to join the Working Groups for the *Sustainable Finance Blueprint <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…>* (which is about 80% full now) and the *Value Cycles Blueprint <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> *(which is about 60% full). The Working Groups are currently giving input on preliminary Content Indexes and proposing resources to consult and reference in the report. A First Exposure Draft will be released to Working Group Members by 8 November, in advance of In-Person Working Group Meetings in Philadelphia on 21/22 November. Please contact Bill <b.baue(a)r3-0.org?subject=Blueprint%20Working%20Groups> and/or Ralph <r.thurm(a)r3-0.org?subject=Blueprint%20Working%20Groups> if you would like to join either / both Working Groups, or to refer a member of your network. r3.0 in Keith Ambachtsheer's Monthly Letter <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> For more than a third of a century, Keith Ambachtsheer has been publishing a Monthly Letter <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> on institutional investment that by now carries legendary status. In his October 2019 Letter (pdf downloadable here <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…>), he takes on the question of "Sustainable Finance," inspired in part by his participation in the r3.0 Sustainable Finance Blueprint Working Group. "[S]ustainability means ‘ability to exist constantly’ at the macro (biosphere/humanity) level. It has a parallel meaning at the micro (individual organization) level. These definitions set us on our way to common understandings of macro and micro ‘sustainable finance’," Keith writes, echoing the r3.0 focus on the micro/macro link. He goes on to specifically spotlight r3.0's work on Sustainable Finance, referencing our "crowdsourcing" through our Blueprint Working Group process; "boundary setting" through our Global Thresholds & Allocations Council <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…>; and "threshold investing" as proposed <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> by Bill and r3.0 Advocation Partner Mark McElroy back in 2013.

For a sense of the value of the Transformation Journey Program, here a testimonial: “The Transformation Journey Program has helped me grasp the context of what is needed for systems change and ultimate thriveability. Moving towards thriveability requires sound tools so that organisations can map where they are, and the journey they need to take to get there. The TJP equips the team with the tools and helps lay out the route.” *Lauren Muusse Senior Sustainability Advisor, ING* Now What?! Weaving for Bioregional Regeneration <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> Following up on the success of the *Now What?!

Now that GTAC has received seed funding for producing a Feasibility Study (also leading to a 3-year / €3m Funding Strategy), plans are promising for a formal launch in mid-2020. Accordingly, we're excited for Bill to share about GTAC in a Plenary Keynote at the New Metrics Conference in Philadelphia on November 18-20. r3.0 Managing Director Ralph Thurm will also be speaking in a Breakout Workshop on the *Principles of Regenerative Economics and the Future of Regeneration-Based Business Model Innovation <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> *(moderated by Bill). Capital Institute Founding President John Fullerton will present the 8 Principles of a Regenerative Economy <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…> as the focus of discussion with Cabot Creamery Cooperative Sustainable Farms Committee Vice Chair Jenni Tilton-Flood and *The Age of Thrivability* <https://r3-0.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=749af2e0ab2f54ee18b2482c5&i…>Author Michelle Holliday, as well as Timberland Sustainability Director Colleen Vien and VF Corporation Director of Sustainable Materials and Products Beth Jensen.

Fwd: Work Organisation, Labour & Organisation Call for Papers: The Algorithm and The City
by Michel Bauwens 09 Oct '19

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Pluto Journals Ltd. <kush(a)plutojournals.com> Date: Wed, Oct 9, 2019 at 3:56 PM Subject: Work Organisation, Labour & Organisation Call for Papers: The Algorithm and The City To: <michelsub2004(a)gmail.com> Work Organisation, Labour & Globalisation welcomes contributions that address the impacts of digitalisation and algorithmic management on cities. View this email in your browser <https://mailchi.mp/00b3aca24a69/work-organisation-labour-organisation-call-…> *Work Organisation, Labour & Globalisation's Call for Papers: 'The Algorithm and the City'* *You are receiving this email because of your past association with Work Organisation, Labour and Globalisation. Please accept our apologies if you think this email has been sent to you in error. If you wish to update your preferences please click here <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/profile?u=946484bd874ae7f80bb5b6…>, or to unsubscribe from our email list please click here <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/unsubscribe?u=946484bd874ae7f80b…>.* The use of online platforms to organise the supply of services has major implications for the way that the labour involved in creating and delivering these services is managed. Recent research has shown an exponential growth in platform labour, which doubled in the UK between 2016 and 2019 with an equally rapid spread of platform management practices to other sectors of the economy (Huws, Spencer & Coates, 2019). This development has been paralleled by a growth in online shopping and in the use of platforms such as Airbnb for renting accommodation as well as the spread of schemes such as bike sharing or car sharing, also run by online platforms. As well as having major implications for urban populations in general (Carta, 2018), and the working conditions and job security of the platform workforce in particular (see for example Wood et al, 2019; Leonardi et al. 2019; Van Doorn, 2017; Prassl, 2018; Munn, 2017), these developments are also transforming cities in other respects. For example the need to speed up ‘last mile’ delivery of goods (Altenried, 2019) is resulting in a substitution of smaller inner city redistribution points for large suburban warehouses (Barbier, Cuny & Raimbault, 2019), and the extension of food delivery networks, driven by the algorithms used by platforms such as Deliveroo and Uber Eats, is leading to the development of ‘dark kitchens’ situated at a distance from their parent restaurants but designed to be close to potential customers (Hayward, 2019), in the process reconfiguring urban space and changing the character of neighbourhoods. Such developments do not just affect the skills and working conditions of the workers directly managed by online platforms; they also have major implications for workers in other sectors affected by these developments, including employees in the hospitality, tourism, retail and transport industries. *Work Organisation, Labour & Globalisation **welcomes contributions that address the impacts of digitalisation and algorithmic management on cities. To read the full call for papers, please see full specification on the WOLG website <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=946484bd874ae7f80b…>.* Articles should be relevant to the aims of our journal <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=946484bd874ae7f80b…> and submission guidelines can be found here <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=946484bd874ae7f80b…>.

It brings together perspectives from a range of national and disciplinary backgrounds to shed vital light on how logistics management is reshaping spatial geographies and labour and how workers are resisting.

Applications are welcomed from both experienced academics and early career researchers. WOLG invites applications from academics who work in any specialism within the scope of the Journal and are committed to the aims of the Journal as it seeks to provide accessible research on the new global division of labour. For more information or to apply, please email: *ursulahuws(a)analyticaresearch.co.uk <ursulahuws(a)analyticaresearch.co.uk>* Applicants will need to send a short CV to the above email. *New look for WOLG's homepage on Pluto Journal's website* Our publisher, Pluto Journals, has had a makeover of their website and WOLG's homepage <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=946484bd874ae7f80b…> has gotten a makeover. We hope you like the new look of our page and the Pluto Journals website! *Book release: Labour in Contemporary Capitalism* We are also pleased to announce the publication of a new book by Ursula Huws, the founder and editor of *Work Organisation, Labour and Globalisation. *Published by Palgrave Macmillan, *Labour in Contemporary Capitalism: What Next? *Is available as an ebook or in hard cover from *Palgrave Macmillan <https://plutojournals.us14.list-manage.com/track/click?u=946484bd874ae7f80b…>* . This long-awaited book brings together the results of decades of prescient research on labour market transformation to provide an authoritative overview of the impacts of technological, economic, social and political change on working life in the 21st century. Using a perspective rooted in feminist political economy, it places current upheavals in global labour markets firmly in their historical context and debunks myths about the impacts of artificial intelligence on labour, pointing to the processes whereby new employment is created, as well as old jobs destroyed, while never underestimating the contradictory impacts of digitalisation on work organisation, resistance, adaption and innovation. Our sister organisation Pluto Books has an excellent website of books you might be interested in.
