Abstract:

Summary Grievance is but one form of industrial conflict. It must be seen in the light or the global industrial relations situation of the parties. Its functions are many, whether it be a conflict over rights or over interest. The main thing is that the parties keep the closest possible control over the produce by resort to private arbitration.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the impact that third-party identity and techniques have on mediation outcome. The roles of the OAS and the Carter Center in the negotiations between the Venezuelan government and the opposition (DC), during the period 2002-2003, and the implementation of the agreement in 2004 are compared as representing track I and track II actors and styles. Using a process-tracing methodology, five conflict mappings and stages of conflict are combined with the results of focused interviews to main participants of the negotiation process. The analysis shows a significant impact of third-party identity and strategies on the outcome of mediation. Moreover, the outcome is more likely to be successful when track II actors, actually track I ½, participate as mediators in the actual negotiations. The most effective strategies used by third parties, dependent on the timing of the intervention and the stage of conflict, are communication and formulation strategies.

Abstract:

Research into interventions in workplace bullying appears to be largely under researched despite widespread acceptance that action is required. Many studies exist that have explored what needs to occur to deal with workplace bullying. It is apparent however that there is a general struggle over what people should actually do, making the absence of intervention studies somewhat puzzling. This thesis studies a microcosm of what interventions may take place through a national helpline run by Acas, a UK based Government funded organisation with a remit to help resolve workplace relations conflicts. Adopting a framework of social construction, this thesis, using interviews and focus groups, has sought to answer the question, "What role does the Acas helpline fulfil when intervening in cases of alleged workplace bullying?" This thesis finds a relatively uniform response from participants which shows a lack of clarity of understanding as to what bullying at work means. Participants also demonstrate the impossible task of providing a singular route to intervention because of the multifaceted nature of the phenomenon. Similarly, the capacity for interventions to provide solutions that satisfy the callers' expectations falls someway short of what was hoped for. This is not a failing of Acas as an organisation. Rather, it illustrates the complexity of providing interventions for complex subjective situations, such as workplace bullying, using a telephone helpline.

Abstract:

This study analyzes the relationship between inter rebel group dynamics and rebel biased third party interventions. Concerning the considerable amount of multiparty civil conflicts and internationalized civil conflicts, prior studies largely overlook the cause and effect of inter rebel dynamics in terms of third party interventions. I delve into two related research questions; How do inter rebel dynamics influence a third party’s decision to intervene in a multiparty civil conflict? What kinds of rebel group interactions are facilitated by such third party interventions? Existing rebel group interaction patterns play a key role in determining conflict process and, influence third party’s decision to intervene. I predict that a cooperative interaction pattern between rebel groups generates an intervention enriched environment for the rebel groups, due to the increased likelihood of successful intervention and the decreased cost of war. The third party’s involvement in ongoing multiple party civil conflict generates a change in bargaining structure between rebels in terms of number of bargainers and distribution of capabilities. I predict a conditional effect of rebel biased interventions on inter rebel dynamics; while forceful intervention boosts cooperation between rebels, weak intervention fuels competition between them. To test my theoretical conjectures, the interlocking relationship between rebels’ interactions and rebel biased interventions has been empirically estimated on a large-N framework. The estimated results strongly confirm my theoretical predictions that rebel cooperation encourages rebel biased interventions and, that increased cooperation and competition is dependent upon third party’s commitment. Overall, my findings highlight a distinctive process of multiparty civil conflicts in terms of third party interventions and rebel group dynamics. My first findings regarding rebel biased interventions, expand the existing intervention literature by focusing on rebel group dynamics in multiparty civil conflicts. The empirical evidence showing boosted competition and cooperation caused by intervention, can be linked to studies that discuss the correlation between interventions and conflict terminations. For the policy community, this project suggests that the success of intervention lies in the third party’s measure of intervention.

Abstract:

Com a presente tese de doutoramento procurou-se sustentar que o ingresso voluntário do terceiro nas hipóteses hoje tratadas pela doutrina como sendo de assistência litisconsorcial revela, na realidade, a intervenção de um verdadeiro litisconsorte, o qual, com a sua admissão no processo em curso, assume a qualidade de parte para todos os fins. Para demonstração da tese proposta, iniciou-se com um exame histórico do instituto, por meio do qual foi possível localizar suas raízes mais remotas no direito italiano medieval até ser positivado pelo §69 da ZPO alemã em 1877. Esse mesmo estudo histórico foi realizado em face do ordenamento brasileiro, apresentando-se a evolução do instituto nos sucessivos diplomas legais, culminando com o artigo 54 do atual Código de Processo Civil (Capítulo 2). Na sequência, foram examinadas as figuras de intervenção de terceiros naqueles ordenamentos estrangeiros considerados mais relevantes para o estudo da assistência litisconsorcial no Brasil (Capítulo 3). Prosseguiu-se com a análise do tratamento conferido ao instituto pela doutrina brasileira contemporânea, objetivando elencar as principais características que são costumeiramente atribuídas à (assim conhecida) modalidade qualificada da assistência (Capítulo 4). Esse estudo, contudo, não ficaria completo sem o exame de uma figura já tratada há algum tempo por alguns doutrinadores, mas ainda objeto de polêmica, denominada de intervenção litisconsorcial voluntária (Capítulo 5). O capítulo final foi dedicado a demonstrar que, nas hipóteses hoje configuradoras da assistência litisconsorcial, a própria situação jurídica do terceiro é objeto do processo pendente. Assim, quando esse terceiro voluntariamente intervém nessas situações, ele o faz como efetivo litisconsorte, assumindo os pedidos formulados pela parte originária à qual adere e devendo ser destinatário direto do comando advindo da decisão de mérito proferida no processo. Ademais, sua verdadeira natureza jurídica reclama uma nova sistematização do instituto, que deve ser tratado não como espécie do gênero assistência, mas no capítulo destinado ao litisconsórcio, como modalidade de intervenção litisconsorcial voluntária (Capítulo 6).
This doctorate thesis aims at arguing that the voluntary entry of a third person into a lawsuit in the cases currently considered by Brazilian legal doctrine as a third-party joinder intervention (assistência litisconsorcial) actually reveals the joinder of a true party to the lawsuit, which, after being admitted into the ongoing lawsuit, is therefore deemed as a party to it for all purposes. Initially, in order to demonstrate the proposed thesis, a historical analysis of the legal doctrine on third-party intervention was completed. This led to the roots of which the doctrine originally stemmed, from the most remote medieval Italian law until being inserted in §69 of the ZPO in 1877. This same historical study was done regarding Brazilian law, presenting the legal doctrines evolution in the successive enactments that culminated in Article 54 of the current Brazilian Civil Procedure Code (Chapter 2). Thereafter, the voluntary entry of a third person into a lawsuit in foreign jurisdictions considered most relevant to the study of third-party joinder intervention (assistência litisconsorcial) in Brazil was analyzed (Chapter 3). Subsequently, the opinion of contemporary Brazilian scholars on third-party joinder intervention (assistência litisconsorcial) was analyzed, aiming at listing the main characteristics usually attributed to such a qualified sort of intervention (Chapter 4). This study, however, would not be complete without also analyzing a recognized category of intervention for long debated by Brazilian scholars, but still subject to some controversies known as voluntary party joinder (intervenção litisconsorcial voluntária) (Chapter 5). The final chapter aims at demonstrating that, given the current elements of the third-party joinder intervention doctrine (assistência litisconsorcial); the actual legal situation of the third person to a lawsuit is the object of the pending process. Therefore, when a third person voluntarily enters a lawsuit, it does so as a genuine party to the lawsuit, accepting what is sought by the original party and joining its claims, thus being entirely subject to the effects arising from the decision on the merits. Moreover, its true legal nature demands a new organization of the legal doctrine within the Brazilian law, which should be treated, not as a species of the genre intervention, but rather a genuine party joinder, as voluntary party joinder (intervenção litisconsorcial voluntária) (Chapter 6).

Abstract:

Why do third-party interventions in civil wars sometimes positively contribute to fast conflict resolutions and post-war development and sometimes backfire? To solve this puzzle, I present a conceptual framework that links the motives and methods of intervention to civil war outcomes and post-war development. Two contrasting motives, self-interest and humanitarian concerns, lead to different intervention types. Self-interest prompts states to undertake unilateral and biased intervention. Humanitarian concerns encourage states to engage in multilateral intervention through the UN with a biased position. Interveners are more prudent in the use of force. They resort to violent methods only when critical security interests are at stake or when extreme humanitarian disasters occur. The method of intervention reflects interveners' motives and significantly influences civil war processes and post-war development. The effects of intervention on civil war duration and outcome, however, tend to be inconsistent with interveners' intentions. I find no empirical evidence that external intervention is likely to make civil war shorter. Whether interveners are motivated by humanitarian concerns or self-interest, they tend to fail to achieve their best outcome: a faster victory for their protégé or a faster negotiated settlement. Instead, biased interveners succeed in retarding military victory by their protégé's rival. Neutral interveners play a role in delaying time until government victory, regardless of their intention. The effects of intervention on post-war development are somewhat consistent with interveners' intention. Multilateral intervention motivated by humanitarian concerns tends to promote post-war well-being by increasing resources available for post-war reconstruction. On the other hand, unilateral intervention tends to impede the improvement of post-war quality of life. The use of force also has negative impacts on post-war development. The reason is that those interventions pursing self-interest produce a less-respondent government and reduce available resources. Military victory is more likely to improve post-war quality of life than is a negotiated settlement. However, the positive effects of military victory are realized only when a group wins a victory without biased support from foreign powers. I find that multilateral intervention using nonviolent methods and having an unbiased stance may be the best way for the international community to help post-war development.

Abstract:

States that experience genocide often have powerful external patrons, but the constraining or enabling role of the patron-client relationship has not been closely examined. When a client state is at high risk of genocide, can its patron state prevent that outcome? What role do patron states play in genocide? My theory explains how patron states can permit or restrain genocide, dependent on their relationship with, and interests in, the client state. The study focuses on the role of the patron’s military assistance and compares four qualitative cases. Two cases resulted in genocide onset: France-Rwanda (1990-1994), and India-Sri Lanka (2007-2009), and these are compared with two cases that did not experience genocide, Russia-Armenia/Nagorno-Karabakh (1991-1994) and India-Nepal (2003-2006). I find that patron actions, broadly determined by geopolitical motivations, significantly influence the likelihood of genocide onset and that this can be observed from variations in patron military assistance and patterns of violence.

Abstract:

Abstract Third party encroachment and geotechnical hazard are two major threats for onshore pipeline system and managing them is a real challenge to pipeline operators including PETRONAS. If these threats are not properly managed, the consequences may lead to major catastrophe which impacts public safety, asset damage, financial loss and tarnish company's reputation. Aerial surveillance i.e. drone or helicopter has been widely used by pipeline operators for inspection and monitoring of 3rd party threat and geotechnical hazard. However, the data produced from these inspections are in the forms of images and videos resulting to massive datasets. Manual interpretation of these data has caused lengthy processes, time consuming, costly, and prone to human error during data analysis. Motivated from the above pain points, a predictive analytics tool was developed in-house using various machine learning technologies to automate anomalies identification captured during aerial inspection as part of monitoring and risk management along pipeline right-of-way (ROW). The outcome from the predictive analytic tool has assisted pipeline operator to perform early intervention of possible pipeline failure due to third party and geohazards. Data automation has significanly reduced data processing time and human error for anomalies detection and verification, this subsequently improve workforce productivity while reducing safety risks, operations and maintenance costs.

Abstract:

Abstract Camisea Pipeline Transportation System (PTS) in Peru, owned by Transportadora de Gas del Perú (TGP) and operated by Compañía Operadora de Gas (COGA), begins in the Amazon rainforest, crosses the Andes Mountains (4850msnm) and finally descends towards the Pacific coast. The PTS has been operating for more than 10 years and it has Natural Gas (NG) and Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) transportation pipelines. The NG pipeline is 888km long which includes two Loops (105km and 18km in the coast and mountain sectors, respectively). NGL pipeline is 557km long. From the beginning (0 km) to 210 km, the Right of Way (RoW) is located in the geotechnical context of the Amazon rainforest. Then, between km 210 and km 420, the PTS crosses the mountain chain of the Andes. Finally, between km 420 and Km 730 the RoW is located on the Peruvian Pacific coast. TGP’s operation of the PTS identifies, analyzes and controls the different types of threats that can affect the integrity of the pipelines. The operation is developed according to international standards defined in the Pipeline Integrity Management (PIM) of the operation. Consequently, hazards such as Third Party Damage (TPD), geohazard, external and internal corrosion, among others, are analyzed. However, associated to the economic growth and development of Peru, there have been some cases where the intervention of a person, community or industrial activity in the surroundings of the RoW has resulted in the level of geohazards are spontaneously modified and activated. Consequently, the degree of stability of the RoW is necessary to analyze the integrity of the NG and NGL pipelines. This article describes the occurrence of some practical cases where there was a change in the stability of the RoW of the TGP’s PTS triggered by activities related to TPD. It is highlighted that the identification, analysis, definition and execution of mitigation actions are carried out in a transversal way which involves the participation of different operational areas such as: Integral Maintenance, Geotechnics, Integrity, Social Management, among others. All the activities are done with the approach of keeping the balance between community, environment and infrastructure. Some of the cases considered are: Flood and scour of the RoW triggered by the failure of a water tank in an industrial area, scour of channels due the obstructions and an unstable slope process generated by constructions near the RoW. Today, the operation develops activities in order to mitigate geohazards generated by TPD. Some of these activities are, among others: Social awareness, technical talks, agreements with industrial and local administration entities, geotechnical maintenance and monitoring. In addition, it is highlighted that all the mentioned mitigation actions are carried out in a transversal manner between different operational areas. Afterward, the collected information is properly saved in the Geographic Information System database.

Abstract:

Abstract A semi-autonomous wireline tractor solution for casedhole applications enabling navigation through complex restrictions with minimal operator interaction in absence of digital telemetry is presented. The robotic conveyance technology provides a foundation for applications where programming of tractoring behaviors is available to field personnel as a part of the job design. Digital telemetry may not be available for wireline tractor tools. A conveyance system with programmable behaviors allows downhole navigation when conventional telemetry is nonexistent or has prohibitively low bandwidth or a protocol conflict, which is relevant in configurations with third-party tools. The presented control technology utilizes downhole on-board measurements with tracking and decoding of head voltage waveforms where electrical power is supplied by the surface system. Voltage is set by an operator to fall into one of several predefined bands representing specific tool commands that trigger a set of robotic sequences. The logging cable can be freed to carry a high-frequency communication signal to payload tools while powering both the tractor and its payload. Although the tractor does not have feedback through its telemetry data, tractor operational condition can be derived from the variations of electrical current measured at surface. A head voltage stabilization system along with a load calibration method compensates voltage fluctuations due to load changes and losses in the logging cable. An advanced signal-processing algorithm implemented in downhole embedded software quantizes denoised voltage and reliably maps it to operational bands, effectively eliminating transient processes resulting from high-power jobs. The voltage estimation technique supports a finite set of commands to be interpreted by the downhole tools and to activate control logic implemented as scripted state machines with a core based on the deterministic finite automaton concept. Behaviors scripted and parametrized by an operator in custom metalanguage use a dictionary of actions and conditions provided by the embedded software that runs the tools. Controllers may be designed and put into action by nonprogrammers to solve restriction navigation needs for a known well completion. The availability of design and simulation software aids job planning. Multiple tractor configurations with individually controlled arms were successfully tested at locations in the USA and Eurasia, with and without third-party tools with their own telemetry. Reliable restriction navigation using preprogrammed behaviors controlled by voltage levels has been demonstrated. The design opens development opportunities for other semi-autonomous downhole applications. Run-time pattern recognition of electrical current in the software enables further automation of the surface power system to drive the downhole navigation, detect and respond to anomalies, and reliably manipulate voltage transitions. The presented technology removes the compatibility barrier between different telemetry systems and elevates flexibility of systems lacking telemetry while preserving their usability and robustness.

Abstract:

Abstract Discuss a cost-effective rigless methodology to abandon complex onshore wells. – Onshore wells can be near housing, and multiple non-technical risks (NTR) need to be carefully managed to keep the license to operate. – Select a 100% electric rigless plug and abandonment (P&A) unit to reduce emissions, smell, and noise contour. – Manage and execute a complex P&A scope of work of 60+ wells in three years. This paper studies the solutions selected and implemented by the project management team in collaboration with the well operator for a successful start-up and cost-effective well abandonment project. – Implement the first fully integrated well abandonment project solution for onshore P&A in the Netherlands including well P&A services, hydraulic workover (HWO), logistics, and site preparation. – Ensure full compliance with the stringent local mining and environmental regulations. – Select a bespoke P&A unit to provide a robust solution for complex P&A work. – Select downhole services and technologies to successfully execute a complex, rigless P&A work scope. The project encompasses over 60 wells on 23 different onshore locations drilled over a 50 year period. The known scope of work and requirements of multiple contingencies while managing NTRs resulted in the selection of a rigless well abandonment solution. – A modular, highly capable rigless well abandonment unit in combination with enabling downhole technologies provides a total solution for simple and complex wells. – A 100-percent electrically powered P&A unit reduces emissions, smell, and noise contour. This was thefirst electrified P&A unit in the history of the operator running on grid power. All well site equipment is electrically powered (HWO P&A Unit, Mud/Cement Pumps, and ancillary equipment) to reduce emissions, smell, and noise contour. – Project management and engineering is key to ensuring efficient planning and close collaboration with the well operator's project team. – Collaboration between partners enables multi-skilling and reduction of POB to save additional costs. – Improve efficiencies and execution through extensive after-action reviews and learning curves. – Successfully execute complex P&A work and re-establish annular cement integrity on multiple complex wells (perforate, wash and cement, section milling, perf, circulate and cement) – More than 40 wells completed in two years, and operations continue today. – This is the first fully integrated well abandonment approach that includes full project management, well-site supervision, cross-product services, and extensive third-party management (HWO, logistics, and other third-party service companies). – A 100% electric P&A unit reduces emissions, smell, and noise contour, delivering a net reduction of CO2 through electrification.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract Step-changes made by the development of a hydraulic casing reamer shoe built to land casing in problematic wellbores has now led to the development of a serviceable all-metal wellbore intervention tool. By employing a similar all-metal drive system as the casing deployment HSRT: Hi-Speed Reaming Tool into thru-tubing sizes, these compact, retrievable and serviceable tools are being deployed effectively in harsh environments. Cost-effectiveness and ease of service make the TT-HSRT: Thru Tubing Hi-Speed Reaming Tool an ideal alternative to downhole motors in certain intervention applications. TT-HSRT's can be deployed in harsh high temperature environments (250°C / 482°F) and are compatible with acids, solvents and nitrogen required in various wellbore stimulations. Those conditions are quite detrimental and costly to a standard elastomer power section in a positive displacement motor. Another advantage the TT-HSRT has over a motor is a much shorter bottom-hole assembly (BHA) length and ease of serviceability. Current industry offerings do not provide the RPM range, the custom wash head configurations, or compatibility with third party milling-style heads. The original casing-deployment high speed reaming tools were designed with drillable all metal internals to aid in effective casing landing; in the thru-tubing version the proprietary internal drive system was scaled down to create a serviceable and retrievable tool to be used in jetting, descaling, stimulations, and other various casing and thru tubing interventions. The thru-tubing HSRT design uses industry-standard pin or box down connections, allowing the option to use third party wash heads and milling style heads which can be quickly changed in the field. This technology provides workover engineers with a low-cost optimization option for wellbore interventions, with the ability to complete multiple operations in a single run. This translates to valuable time savings as well as cost savings on repair and maintenance. Another major benefit is the internal drive system which has proven to be very reliable. Three thru-tubing sizes are available and are all under one meter in length. The tools contain zero elastomer or o-ring seals. The high RPM and low torque drive system give the tool a strong cost-saving advantage over traditional ‘elastomer and coated rotor’ style power sections found in downhole motors, particularly where a high torque requirement is not needed to complete the work. This paper will outline the development of this technology versus a positive displacement downhole motor and include international and domestic case histories outlining the tools’ use.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract A large collection of data recorded during coiled tubing (CT) operations has been analyzed using proprietary pattern recognition algorithms to identify downhole events with a high degree of confidence. These events include the drilling of plugs and stuck pipe incidents. Key performance indicator (KPI) metrics derived from this analysis provide insight into industry trends over time and by region, and can provide useful performance benchmarks for service providers and operator companies. Depth, weight and pressure data from multiple sources has been streamed and stored on a shared platform over a five year period, creating a record of over 39,000 data files. This data was processed to generate KPI-type statistics for over 500,000 detected plugs and 760 possible stuck pipe scenarios, based on analysis of depth and weight signatures. Using surface measurements to quantify downhole events has some limitations, but the method has proven sufficiently robust to allow useful trends to be observed and evaluated. While the analysis is confidential to the parties involved, a contributing company can compare their ‘performance’ statistics (as evaluated by the third party algorithms) against averages representative of the industry at large, arranged by year and geographic region, to identify areas of relative strength or weakness. An operator company can likewise compare metrics for different service providers (derived solely from jobs performed for their company) for those which elect to share data in this fashion. This paper presents statistics for plug drilling operations and stuck pipe incidents in North America between 2016-2020, a period of significant change in the CT industry. Examples show how average plug drilling times have generally decreased, with less frequent use of short trips and fewer pipe cycles. The data shows that, for some companies, faster operations have come at the expense of more frequent or severe stuck pipe incidents, whereas other companies have experienced fewer such problems. This comparative analysis illustrates how downhole outcomes can be deduced from surface measurements, and resulting performance metrics can vary widely between companies, fields and geographic regions.

Abstract:

The paper describes an algorithm for assessing pipeline systems (PLS) safety increase due to implementation of special means. The algorithm is based on structural reliability and Boolean variables theory and is a step-by-step calculation of safety increase for a potentially dangerous object (PDO) due to implementation of the i-th safety means. An example is given of assessing pipeline operational safety change as related to third party intervention (TPI) when using different safety measures.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract To optimize offshore intervention and completions operations, drill pipe-based riser (DPBR) designs with proprietary gas-tight, rotary-shouldered connections are being evaluated as alternatives to traditionally used casing products. This paper describes the design and development process of a DPBR including material qualification and connector qualification, which was pieced together from various applicable industry codes, such as National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) MR0175, NACE TM0177, American Petroleum Institute (API) 17G, API Spec 5DP, API TR 17TR8, and ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section IX. Wherever applicable, the more challenging and stringent requirements were chosen. Material selection and qualification were performed to meet the NACE MR0175 requirements for Region 2. Sulfide stress cracking tests were performed on all base materials and friction welds in accordance with ANSI/NACE MR0175andNACE TM0177. Sub-scale fatigue testing was performed to determine the environmental knockdown factor and used to determine the fatigue capacity of the DPBR in the expected fluid/environmental conditions. Finite-element analysis was used to determine the worst-case design configurations. These results were then used in full-scale physical testing with nine samples. Validation of the connector capacities was performed by make-and-break (endurance) testing, sealability testing, and cyclic (fatigue) testing with internal pressure. Limit-load testing was performed to validate the static load capacity of the connector. A qualification bridging was performed comparing the results from FEA and physical testing. An independent third party witnessed and reviewed all relevant design and qualification activities per the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement requirements for high-pressure high-temperature equipment.

Full text

Abstract:

The active involvement or employment of former extremists (Formers) in preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE) has been a feature of the P/CVE landscape for over a decade. While divisive, a consensus is emerging that what is considered productive involvement of Formers is dependent on several factors related to the individual, the programme type, and the geographical and political context of the PCVE intervention. For years, leaders in the PCVE field have argued that standards are needed to delineate these factors and to guide PCVE programmes that choose to include Formers. The Involving Formers project entailed extensive dialogue and consensus-building efforts between international practitioners (including Formers) and academics working with Formers, manifesting through a series of international conferences, an edited book, and a Delphi study utilising interviews and surveys. This report presents the international expert consensus on the standards that programmes involving Formers in PCVE should adopt to safeguard programmes, service users, and staff. The standards cover areas such as hiring and screening practices, compensation and professional support, and programme structures. We recommend that PCVE programmes, practitioners, and funders working in this space should: a) publicly promote the standards to facilitate their recognition as third-party voluntary standards; b) develop reasonable plans to implement and provide feedback on the standards in their own practices; and c) support the establishment of a body to locate and support the wider development of standards in P/CVE for all practitioners.

Full text

Abstract:

A new tool, LUCI, has been developed as part of the Locacons Project to determine the broader impacts of development interventions. Knowledge of how and where interventions may create unintended consequences is crucial for all sectors; however, in communities with a history of conflict, in particular, unintended impacts of interventions have been shown to be significant contributors to the exacerbation of conflict potential. Estimates show that two-thirds of the world’s poor will live in fragile and conflict-affected states by 2030. The LUCI tool can be useful in many contexts. The authors present an example in this report of how it can be applied to analyse the potential conflict impacts of a climate change adaptation development intervention, which is designed to deliver rural electrification to economically marginalized groups, through the introduction of solar hybrid mini-grids in northern Kenya.

Full text

Abstract:

Rising rates of social isolation in Canada and other middle- and high-income countries have turned scholarly attention to the kinds of places that facilitate social connections. “Third places” - physical and virtual places beyond home (first places) and work (second places) - are thought to foster social interaction, connection, belonging, and support. This evidence brief reports on a SSHRC funded knowledge synthesis that linked understandings about “third places” with situations of precarious employment, given that people facing precarious employment circumstances often lack the social opportunities and resources associated with stable workplaces. This scoping review assessed what is known about the types and characteristics of “third places” that help maintain social connectedness and address social isolation for adults experiencing precarious employment circumstances. The project examined English-language research articles published in multidisciplinary academic journals between 2012 and 2022. The review captured diverse forms of employment (i.e., gig work, involuntary part-time work, seasonal work, temporary migrant work) characterized as transient, non-permanent, unpredictable, having few worker protections or rights, and associated with low or unpredictable remuneration, as well as cyclical and long-term unemployment. In addition to synthesizing study results, findings attend to how studies addressed diverse social positions and studies’ geographic locations, methodologies, methods, and quality. The goal of the project was to understand the current state of knowledge on this topic; create dialogue about how social isolation can be addressed through precarious workers’ engagement with “third places”; and identify opportunities for stakeholders to partner on place-based interventions with people experiencing precarious employment circumstances.

Full text

Abstract:

Pipeline operators expend substantial efforts to develop, implement, and audit their Public Awareness and Pipeline Damage Prevention Programs. While the rate of pipeline damage incidents from third-party and outside force impacts has progressively declined over a period of several decades, these events remain a high priority for the pipeline industry and external stakeholders. One key focus area for Encroachment Detection and Damage Prevention is understanding and managing Human Factors influences in damage prevention programs. This document presents the findings of the Phase II study on the influences of human factors on pipeline damage and damage prevention efforts. The Phase II study builds on the prior literature review and site visits with pipeline operating companies to identify Human Factors issues in Encroachment Detection and Damage Prevention (Phase I). As a result of the Phase I study, over 200 Human Factors issues were identifed that pertain to Encroachment Detection and Damage Prevention. The Phase II study focused on the top 25 issues (as identified by the pipeline operating companies). The report presents the results of two-day workshops that were organized in five countries to develop interventions for each of the 25 high-priority Human Factors Issues. The Final Report includes a �Users Guide� that identifies practical Human Factors interventions to address Encroachment Detection and Pipeline Damage for the 25 high-priority issues. The Users Guide is included in this report as Appendix D. It is also published separately.

Abstract:

As research continues into how fire department interventions affect fire dynamics in the modern fire environment, questions continue to arise on the impact and implications of interior versus exterior fire attack on both occupant survivability and firefighter safety. This knowledge gap and lack of previous research into the impact of fire streams has driven the need for further research into fire department interventions at structure fires with a focus on hose streams and suppression tactics. As the third report in the project “Impact of Fire Attack Utilizing Interior and Exterior Streams on Firefighter Safety and Occupant Survival”, this report expands upon the fire research conducted to date by analyzing how firefighting tactics, specifically suppression methods, affect the thermal exposure and survivability of both building occupants and firefighters in residential structures. • Part I: Water Distribution • Part II: Air Entrainment • Part III: Full-Scale Residential Fire Experiments. This report evaluates fire attack in residential structures through twenty-six full-scale structure fire experiments. Two fire attack methods, interior and transitional, were preformed at UL’s large fire lab in Northbrook, IL, in a single-story 1,600 ft2 ranch test structure utilizing three different ventilation configurations. To determine conditions within the test structure it was instrumented for temperature, pressure, gas velocity, heat flux, gas concentration, and moisture content. Ad- ditionally, to provide information on occupant burn injuries, five sets of instrumented pig skin were located in pre-determined locations in the structure. The results were analyzed to determine consistent themes in the data. These themes were evaluated in conjunction with a panel of fire service experts to develop 18 tactical considerations for fire ground operations. As you review the following tactical considerations it is important to utilize both these research results and your per- sonal experience to develop your department’s polices and implement these considerations during structural firefighting.

Full text

Abstract:

We use a near-representative household panel survey of ∼19,000 primary-school-aged children in rural Tamil Nadu to study the extent of ‘learning loss’ after COVID-19 school closures, the pace of recovery in the months after schools reopened, and the role of a flagship compensatory intervention introduced by the state government. Students tested in December 2021, after 18 months of school closures, displayed severe deficits in learning of about 0.7 standard deviations (σ) in math and 0.34σ in language compared to identically-aged students in the same villages in 2019. Using multiple rounds of in-person testing, we find that two-thirds of this deficit was made up in the 6 months after school reopening. Using value-added models, we attribute ∼24% of the cohort-level recovery to a government-run after-school remediation program which improved test scores for attendees by 0.17σ in math and 0.09σ in Tamil after 3-4 months. Further, while learning loss was regressive, the recovery was progressive, likely reflecting (in part) the greater take up of the remediation program by more socioeconomically disadvantaged students. These positive results from a state-wide program delivered at scale by the government may provide a useful template for both recovery from COVID-19 learning losses, and bridging learning gaps more generally in low-and-middle-income countries.

Full text

Abstract:

This report reviews the implementation of the measures the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB or Bank) has taken in the three strategic pillars of the anticorruption agenda: (i) strengthen the prevention of fraud and corruption in Bank operations; (ii) support transparency and anticorruption efforts in the Region; and (iii) ensure high ethical standards for Bank staff. The Bank has taken several actions in the first and third pillars. To help prevent corruption, the IDB has eliminated the overlap of policy and investigations by creating an Anticorruption Policy Committee and giving more independence to the Office of Institutional Integrity, and by establishing a new sanctions structure with greater clarity and stronger accountability. In addition, the 2011 cross-debarment agreement with other multilateral development banks has enhanced the impact of sanctions the IDB may impose. To help ensure internal integrity, the Bank has revised its Code of Ethics and whistleblower policy, improved the enforcement capacity of the Ethics Office, streamlined accountability relationship, and taken various other actions to bring the system up to good international practice. The second pillar, however -even recognizing that most Bank interventions to improve public management and strengthen institutions can have a positive impact on governance and anticorruption- has received limited recognition and support, partly as the result of crowding out by other development priorities and of limited country demand. In preventing corruption in Bank projects and in fostering staff integrity, the new structure is a major improvement over the one built piecemeal in previous years. This report advances various suggestions, of which the most important is for an external review of the Bank staff rules, particularly to sharpen managers¿ authority and accountability for ensuring a respectful workplace environment. In these two pillars, however, the priority is to consolidate the sound organizational and institutional changes that have been made. For the second pillar, enhancing governance and anticorruption efforts in member countries will require more assertive Bank support from the top, the assignment of greater priority and resources to programs to foster transparency and accountability, and closer intersectoral coordination.
