When the Covid-19 pandemic first started, the natural response was to take strong lockdown measures. Schools tend to serve as community spread hubs for many communicable diseases and although it was immediately clear that children were barely affected by this disease, the suspicion that they were vectors of spread was the driving reason for school closures around the world. However, by summer 2020, research started revealing two important findings. First, primary schools were not vectors of transmission. They merely reflected the incidence rates in the community and most of the transmission was in the opposite direction. Parents infected children rather than children infecting adults or children infecting other children. The overwhelming majority of the literature on the topic has continued to confirm this finding until now, even in the presence of new variants. The second finding came less from academic research and more from national and international public agencies that worked on child welfare. Children were falling behind on school, they were being forced to work and mary, child abuse became both more rampant and more difficult to detect. Moreover, there was almost no research on virtual education for children at primary school age. Children whose families were less educated and who did not have access to a stable internet connection fell behind on school. My presentation will focus on the social and educational inequalities that resulted from school closures in Turkey in the context of the larger problems from which children suffer in Turkey and internationally. I argue that remote education has been a social and educational failure. I present quantitative and qualitative data to support my arguments. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/content/sessions/eylul.md b/content/sessions/eylul.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..f783992 --- /dev/null +++ b/content/sessions/eylul.md @@ -0,0 +1,16 @@ +--- +key: eylul +title: "Teaching the art with the FLOSS - teaching photography using FLOSS tools with the culture" +id: 6E03tbU6L5w0IyjMi7yF +language: English +format: keynote +tags: + - freedom +speakers: + - eylul-dogruel +draft: false +--- + +Teaching art using FLOSS can present some challenges.

Bu konuşmada GNU Taler'in tasarım ilkeleri tanıtıyoruz ve bunları gerçekleştirmek için teknik altyapısını inceliyoruz. + +# GNU Taler'ın Tasarım İlkeleri kısacası + +## 1. Özgür Yazılım + +GNU Taler, Özgür Yazılım olmalıdır. Tüccarlar için Özgür Yazılımı, satıcıların kilitlenmesini önler; bu, satıcıların ödemelerini işlemek için kolayca başka bir hizmet sağlayıcı seçebileceği anlamına gelir. Ülkeler için Özgür Yazılımı, GNU Taler'ın kısıtlamalar veya gereksinimler getirerek egemenlikten ödün veremeyeceği anlamına gelir. + +Müşteriler, Özgür Yazılımından yararlanır çünkü herkes cüzdan yazılımını değiştirmekte özgürdür, ek platformları destekler. Kaynak kodu mevcut olmalı ve izleme veya telemetri gibi kullanıcıya düşman özelliklerin olmadığını doğrulamayı kolaylaştırmalıdır. + +## 2. Alıcıların mahremiyetini koruyun + +Gizlilik, yalnızca politikaların aksine, teknik önlemlerle garanti edildiğinde en anlamlıdır. Varsayılan olarak gizlilik sağlayan teknik bir katman olmadan, finansal işlemler kişisel veya özel verilerin gereksiz seviyelerini ortaya çıkarır. Bu, özellikle çevrimiçi yayınlar için mikro ödemeler yaparken doğru olacaktır. Bu nedenle, GNU Taler, nüfus üzerinde totaliter kontrolü kolaylaştırmaktan kaçınmak için alıcıların mahremiyetini korumalıdır. + +## 3. Denetlenebilirlik - devletin geliri vergilendirmesini ve yasa dışı iş faaliyetlerini durdurmasını sağlar + +Bir ödeme sisteminin yasal olarak çalışabilmesi için yerel yasalara uyması gerektiğinden, GNU Taler bu gereksinimlere uyacak şekilde tasarlanmalıdır. GNU Taler, yasalara göre faaliyet gösteren araştırmacılar için bir denetim izi sağlamalıdır. Dahası, vergi alınmasının topluma faydalı olduğunu düşünüyoruz ve adil vergilendirme, gelir şeffaflığı gerektiriyor. Bu nedenle, GNU Taler yetkililerin geliri takip etmesini sağlamalıdır. + +## 4. Ödeme sahtekarlığını önleyin + +GNU Taler, ödeme sahtekarlığının en yaygın kaynaklarını hafifletmelidir. Yazılım tasarımında en iyi uygulamaları, kafa karışıklığını ve yanıltıcı kullanıcı arayüzlerini önleyen 3. taraf tasarım yönergelerini takip etmeliyiz ve başkalarının halka açık kodumuzu incelemesini sağlamalıyız. Dahası, GNU Taler, tüm tarafların tam olarak kötü davranışı atfetmesini sağlamak için tüm anahtar süreçler için kapsamlı kriptografik kanıt sağlamalıdır. + +## 5. Gerekli minimum bilgileri toplayın + +Alıcıların mahremiyetine ilke (2)'nin bir parçası olarak özel öncelik verilmektedir. Ancak, tüccarlar gibi diğer tarafların da veri korumasına sahip olması gerekir. Genel olarak, GNU Taler gerekli minimum bilgiyi toplamalıdır: toplanmayan veya artık depolanmayan veriler tehlikeye atılamaz. + +## 6. Kullanılabilirliği önemsiyoruz + +GNU Taler, bir GNU Taler cüzdanının son kullanıcıları, GNU Taler kullanarak ödeme kabul etmek isteyen tüccarlar ve e-ticaret ve diğer platformlar için 3. taraf uygulama geliştiricileri dahil olmak üzere uzman olmayan müşteriler için kullanılabilir olmalıdır. GNU Taler, en iyi uygulama kullanım kılavuzlarını takip etmeli ve uzmanlardan ve kullanıcılardan gelen geri bildirimleri içermelidir. Özgür Yazılımı, bilinçli seçimlere izin vermek için Özgür belgeleri de gerektirir. GNU Taler, GNU Taler ve diğer projeler arasında sürtünmesiz entegrasyonlara izin vermek için iyi belgelenmiş Uygulama Programlama Arayüzleri (API'ler) sağlamalıdır. + +## 7. Verimli ve etkili çalışma ilkemiz + +GNU Taler verimli olacak şekilde tasarlanmalıdır. Basitçe söylemek gerekirse, verimlilik daha az kırılacak şey anlamına gelir ve saniyede daha fazla işlem anlamına gelir ve çevresel etkimizi azaltır. Verimlilik, GNU Taler'ın mikro ödemelerde kullanılması için de kritiktir. Bu nedenle, çalışma kanıtı gibi bazı pahalı ilkellerin GNU Taler tarafından kullanılmaması gerekir. + +## 8. Hataya dayanıklı tasarım + +Kötü niyetli operatörler, şişman parmaklar, bilgisayar hataları, gremlinler. İşler ters gittiğinde ise GNU Taler, tek tek bileşenlerin ve sistemlerin arızalarını tolere edecek şekilde tasarlanmalıdır. Sistemin güvenli bir şekilde çalışmaya devam edebileceği yerlerde, güvenli bir şekilde çalışmaya devam edecektir. Bir işlemi durdurması gerektiğinde, diğer işlemler gereksiz yere çevrimdışı duruma getirilmemelidir. Sistemlerin başarısız olduğu yerlerde, sorunsuz bir şekilde başarısız olmaları gerekir. GNU Taler, temel sırlardan ödün veren kötü niyetli operatörlerden kurtulmak için bir plana sahip olmalıdır. + +## 9. Rekabeti teşvik edin + +Rakiplerin birlikte çalışabilir alternatifleri kullanması nispeten kolay olmalıdır. Geleneksel finansal sistemlerde bunun önündeki engeller oldukça yüksektir ve kontrolümüzün dışındadır. Ancak GNU Taler, yeni rakiplerin pazara girmesi için gereken teknik yükü en aza indirmelidir. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/content/sessions/pinar-dag.md b/content/sessions/pinar-dag.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4db914d --- /dev/null +++ b/content/sessions/pinar-dag.md @@ -0,0 +1,15 @@ +--- +key: pinar +title: "Open Data in the Time of Coronavirus (COVID-19)" +id: 6E03tbU6L5w0IyjMi7yF +language: English +format: keynote +tags: + - freedom +speakers: + - pinar-dag +draft: false +--- +In my session, which will last for 25 minutes, I will share how open data is used and discussed in the Covid-19 process.

With the support of the global OpenStreetMap community through Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT), ITU Center for Satellite Communications and Remote Sensing, and Maxar Technologies, majority of the existing building stock has been mapped in the Izmir city center and Seferihisar, and more than 1000 crowdsourced damage reports have been inspected in the field by the Chamber of Civil Engineers (CCE) İzmir branch. + +The crowdsourced datasets emerging from these efforts have been shared with the community under open licenses, with hope for them to be valuable resources for the future studies of academia and other professional organizations on analysis, recovery and preparedness for potential future events. + +The activities and their outcomes have emphasized the importance and effectiveness of free and community-based data efforts in emergencies, and the effectiveness of the free and open source tools utilized in those processes.
