SUMMARY:ACIR presents - Alan Elsner: J Street and the Fight for the Two-State Solution
DESCRIPTION:Luncheon and Discussion \nThe two-state solution envisages two independent states – Palestine and Israel. Noted in UN General Assembly Resolution 181 (II) in November 1947\, the two-state solution often has been a major focus on efforts to achieve peace between Israel and the Palestinians for over 80 years. Yet all attempts to achieve such a solution have failed. Come hear Alan Elsner\, special advisor to the president of J-Street\, provide his views on efforts to achieve peace between Palestinians and Israelis through a two-state solution. \nAbout J-Street: J Street is the political home for pro-Israel\, pro-peace Americans who want Israel to be secure\, democratic and the national home of the Jewish people. Working in American politics and the Jewish community\, J Street is an advocate for policies that advance shared US and Israeli interests as well as Jewish and democratic values\, leading to a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

SUMMARY:Latin American Crossroads: Chile
DESCRIPTION:Latin American Crossroads series presented by:  \nStretching along South America’s western coast\, faraway Chile may not be the first choice for Georgia firms.

SUMMARY:International Women's Day Breakfast: #PressForProgress

Let’s make 2018 the year that is not only for women\, but also ignites a permanent forum for women’s rights. \n#PressforProgress is the discussion on the changes taken from within male-dominated industries. For example\, Tesla has just signed on Ebony Media’s CEO Linda Johnson Rice to its board. What kind of message does this send to all genders in the workplace? \nRickey Bevington\, GPB’s Senior Anchor\, will moderate this discussion. \nThe cost of this event is $30 for members and $45 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Autonomous Atlanta: Connected City in an Autonomous World 
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Tangonet Solutions and Metro-Tech  \nSelf-driving cars (for live testing but with NO driver behind the wheel) will become legal in California in April.  In February the first coast to coast trip (LA to Jacksonville) by an Autonomous vehicle was completed not by a car\, but a tractor-trailer code named “Big Blue”. \nThe name Yara Birkeland may not be familiar\, but it will be the first autonomously piloted ship to actually deliver freight this year. \nThe point is autonomous navigational technologies are here and advancing fast\, perhaps faster than Society’s ability to adopt them.  Georgia\, with its extensive multi-modal transportation and logistics networks\, could become a trailblazer (or could get left behind) in the race to autonomy. \nTo address the question of what is being done to address this revolution within the legal\, regulatory and policy structures of our society\, please join TAG’s Transportation Technology Society and the Atlanta Regional Commission for a panel discussion featuring some of Georgia’s leaders who are at the forefront autonomy and smart cities in our region. \nPanelists: \nDoug Hooker – Executive Director\, Atlanta Regional Commission \nSuzanne Murtha – AECOM Vice President Connected and Automated Vehicles \nKirk Talbott – Executive Director\, Smart City Program\, City of Atlanta \nModerator: Christian Kotscher- CEO/Founder\, Metrotech \n

SUMMARY:Envisioning the Future and Understanding the Realities of India’s Urban Ecologies
DESCRIPTION:India\, a land of ancient wisdom and cultural world heritage\, is home to the world’s first\ncities. In the last twenty years it has experienced unprecedented growth\, development\, and change\, altering its physical\, cultural\, and social landscape with dramatic effect. Today\, its cities embody a paradoxical mix of globalization\, modernity\, and advanced technology with regionalism\, tradition\, and religion\, juxtaposed with extreme poverty and\ninequality. \nSustainability\, in all its facets has emerged as a key problem in India’s development story. Urbanization is not an independent variable of development\, but an integral part and product of the development process itself. Therefore\, there is a need to understand urban issues as part of a larger development process affecting both rural and urban communities and livelihoods\, employing historical and contemporary perspectives (with regional and global implications). \nBuilding off research in the fields of Sociology\, Biology\, and Architecture\, the conference will examine contemporary urban growth in India and its effects on the everyday ecologies of its people. The goal is a more holistic understanding of India’s urban ecologies\, their interdependence\, and the need for more sustainable strategies for urbanization. India’s cities can provide applicable lessons to the more global concerns of urbanization around the world. \n
