DW.com commissioned poll in August 2016 showing how Merkel's refugee policy is seen by the German public one year after it was announced
08/23/2016
About 51% agree it will strengthen the German economy, 45% disagree, the same numbers are seen for whether Germany's services for housing, education and healthcare will be stretched. Over 50% think it will lead to more terrorist incidents. About the same number see the policy favorably in the Green Party as see it unfavorably in the AfD party, the parties on either side of the political spectrum. Overall says DW.com it appears to be balanced for negative and positive sentiment.

Germany's chancellor Merkel and the EU-Turkey deal in 2016 for Turkey to take back refugees crossing the Aegean sea into Greece
03/24/2016
The EU deal with Turkey is important for Merkel as she faces new provincial elections in 2017 with growing populist pressures and opposition from the CDU to refugee policy. Pressure also comes from the Social Democrats for expanding domestic welfare. Merkel still has a high approval rating of 54% in March 2016 as she works to forge a EU wide policy for refugees.

Germany's effort to absorb 800,000 migrants at the local level in cities and towns- Erfurt, Thuringia
09/11/2015
From the small town of Erfurt, Germany, Katrin Bennhold provides this exceptional report in the NYT of how one city in the heart of Germany with a medieval past is coping with the influx of refugees. Under Germany's quota system, Thuringia gets 2.5% of new refugees and Erfurt 20% of that. How well the experiment works depends on how it is working at the local level.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
