This technical webinar aimed to improve the quality of ICT Price Baskets (IPB) data collected by ITU member states. It provided compilers of ICT service price statistics with detailed methodological explanations and practical exercises using sample datasets.

The activity was part of the EU-funded ITU project, "Promoting and Measuring Universal and Meaningful Connectivity." Implemented by the ICT Data and Analytics Division (IDA), the project strengthens the statistical capacities of national statistical offices and regulatory authorities, especially in developing countries, through a series of webinars and workshops.

Seismic airgun testing, used for offshore oil and gas, poses a severe threat to the ocean's soundscape. These powerful blasts injure marine life, endanger regional fisheries, and jeopardize the livelihoods of those dependent on the ocean.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is currently preparing an environmental impact statement (EIS) on expanding seismic testing in the Mid and South Atlantic. BOEM must incorporate the latest science to fully assess these risks. Help raise awareness about this destructive practice. For more information, visit: http://oceana.org/seismic.

Rashid Hughes facilitated an experiential contemplative practice called R.E.S.T. at our Fellowship Forum. This practice explores the intersections of liberation and contemplative work, serving as an antidote to systems of capitalism and white supremacy.
