SUMMARY:Fourth Annual Maternity Fundraiser
DESCRIPTION:In the last three years\, GWAG has successfully raised money to support and transform maternity wards across Ghana. The donated supplies have provided the hospital staff with the tools needed to provide decent care to patients and increased access to maternity care for many women in the communities they serve. GWAG’s third shipment recently arrived at the port in Ghana and has since been cleared by Rotary club and GWAG members living in Ghana. See some pictures here: \nAs an association\, we have made a lot of progress in fulfilling our desire to “better the maternity experience in Ghana\, one ward at a time”. However\, there is still a lot of work to do. So as they continue with their efforts to provide maternity ward supplies and create a system of sustainability\, they ask that you continue to support us by helping us reach our fundraising goal of $25\,000 for our 2019 project.

SUMMARY:Rialto Series: Etienne Charles with the GSU Jazz Band
DESCRIPTION:Trinidad native Etienne Charles defies easy musical categorization. At a young age he joined his father’s steel band\, performing at Carnival fetes\, and immersing himself in the folklore.

SUMMARY:Strategic Infrastructure Dialogue: GT Smart Cities Conference
DESCRIPTION:The ​term ​‘smart ​cities’ ​was ​first ​used ​in ​its ​modern ​sense ​in ​the ​1990s. ​Yet\, ​as ​of ​today\, ​no ​city ​around ​the ​globe ​can ​claim ​to ​have ​successfully ​integrated ​a ​holistic ​smart ​cities ​approach. ​ \nOne ​explanation ​is ​that ​there ​has ​been ​a ​disconnect ​between ​smart ​cities ​technologies ​and ​the ​residents ​of ​the ​communities ​these ​technologies ​are ​supposed ​to ​serve. ​ ​ \nThe ​Georgia ​Institute ​of ​Technology ​(Georgia ​Tech) ​will ​hold ​a ​two-day ​Smart ​Cities ​Dialogue ​on ​May ​7-8\, ​2019 ​to ​help ​frame ​the ​debate ​on ​this ​paradigm. ​It ​will ​discuss ​how ​to ​develop ​smarter ​communities ​that ​understand ​urban ​life ​primarily ​as ​a ​social\, ​and ​only ​secondarily ​as ​a ​technical ​and ​logistic ​ecosystem. ​Topics ​will ​capture ​inclusive ​engagement\, ​smaller ​communities ​that ​may ​not ​see ​themselves ​as ​part ​of ​the ​“smart ​cities” ​effort\, ​social ​and ​socioeconomic ​mobility ​as ​well ​as ​connections ​within ​economic ​regions. \nIn ​addition ​to ​bringing ​together ​key ​national ​and ​international ​stakeholders ​from ​local ​governments ​as ​well ​as ​industry ​and ​academic ​leaders ​for ​a ​series ​of ​insightful ​discussions\, ​attendees ​will ​have ​the ​opportunity ​to ​experience ​‘research ​in ​action’ ​and ​discover ​some ​of ​Georgia ​Tech’s ​latest ​solutions ​in ​this ​domain.

SUMMARY:ACIR Hosts Joe Bankoff: "Fake News in the World Today."
DESCRIPTION:During the Cold War we were exposed to what was then called “Disinformation.” It was a tool often used by the Soviet Union to seed the political environment abroad with credible but misleading and often false information with a deliberate attempt to deceive. In some ways\, today what we call “Fake News” is similar in some ways and perhaps more pernicious in others. Come and engage in a dialogue with Joe Bankoff on “Fake News” in the World Today.” \nJoe Bankoff was appointed chair of The Sam Nunn School of International Affairs in spring 2012 following six years as president & CEO of The Woodruff Arts Center and 32 years as a senior partner at the Atlanta-based law firm of King & Spalding. \nMr. Bankoff’s expertise ranges across law and policy\, economic development\, government legislation\, fiscal planning\, and global issues. In 1992\, he took a sabbatical from his law firm to accept an appointment as a visiting scholar at the Max Planck Institute for Intellectual Property & Competition Law\, Munich\, Germany.  There he became engaged in the analysis of multi-jurisdictional copyright claims arising from satellite television in Europe.  He later represented German Television (ZDF) in a related dispute with Turner Broadcasting.  He also served as counsel to Atlanta’s Olympic Organizing Committee negotiating the television rights agreements for Europe (EBU)\, Canada\, Australia\, Latin and South America\, and the United States.

DESCRIPTION:“THE UNIVERSAL GRAIN. Game of Professionals. Society. The Last Chance” \nJoin together with a hundred thousand plus people from around the world as we discuss the most important questions for society today. This historic event is initiated by people themselves with the goal to raise vital questions that concern topics of peace\, humanness\, and empathy.

By studying the sacred texts of all existing religions and cultures\, we show that all world teachings are based on the same grains of truth; our cultures and religions speak and teach about the same truths and knowledge. This realization gives people an understanding that we are indeed all United!

SUMMARY:Comedy: Eddie Izzard's Wunderbar U.S. Tour
DESCRIPTION:Eddie Izzard’s Wunderbar – US Tour. Five years after his last comedy tour\, Force Majeure\, made comedy history having played 45 countries including all 50 of the United States AND in four languages\, making it the most extensive comedy show ever\, Eddie is back to his roots with an all-new show which expands on his own very unique\, totally surreal view of life\, love\, history and his ‘theory of the universe.’ Wunderbar is a delicious insight into the surreal and fantastical world of Eddie Izzard. This is intelligent Bunkum of the highest order. Wunderbar began life at La Nouvelle Seine\, a floating theatre in Paris on the Seine where Eddie began to improvise his new show in French. He then flipped countries and continued developing the show improvising in Berlin in German. Now after more development in English\, Eddie is ready to share Wunderbar with the world… But will make sure the language fits the country!
