2023 Theme
Green Skills for Youth: Towards a Sustainable
World
Today, the world is embarking on a green transition.
The shift towards an environmentally sustainable and
climate-friendly world is critical not only for
responding to the global climate crisis but also for
achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
A successful transition towards a greener world will
depend on the development of green skills in the
population. Green skills are “knowledge, abilities,
values and attitudes needed to live in, develop and
support a sustainable and resource-efficient society”.
These include technical knowledge and skills that
enable the effective use of green technologies and
processes in occupational settings, as well as
transversal skills that draw on a range of knowledge,
values and attitudes to facilitate environmentally
sustainable decisions in work and in life. Due to their
interdisciplinary nature, the essence of green skills is
sometimes expressed, partly if not wholly, through
other associated terms such as “skills for the future”
and “skills for green jobs”. While green skills are
relevant for people of all ages, they have heightened
importance for younger people, who can contribute to
the green transition for a longer period of time.

Communicative Language Teaching aims broadly to
apply the theoretical perspective of the
Communicative Approach by making communicative
competence the goal of language teaching and by
acknowledging the interdependence of language and
communication. What this looks like in the
classroom may depend on how the tenets are
interpreted and applied. Nevertheless, we will follow
our usual way of und erstanding the theor y and
ussocia rcd practices by visiting a class in which a
form of Communicative Language Teaching is being
practiced. The class we will visit is one being
conducted for adult immigrants to Canada . These
twenty people have lived in Canada for two years
and are at a high-intermediate level of English
proficiency. They meet two evenings a week for two
hours each class.

The latest evolution of The Color Purple story is coming to the
big screen soon—and as the premiere gets closer and closer,
we’re getting more sneak peeks into that magic!
Oprah has joined forces with Steven Spielberg, Quincy Jones,
and Scott Sanders to bring The Color Purple musical—which
premiered on Broadway in 2005—to life. “To reinvent the
movie at this time is to reinvent a phenomenon,” says Oprah.
The film has an official release date: December 25, 2023—so
that’s your post-Christmas plans, sorted.
In 1985, Oprah made her acting debut as Sofia in Spielberg’s
adaptation of Alice Walker’s novel—and earned an Academy
Award nomination. Oprah said she felt “deep down joy” while
filming The Color Purple. “Being in that movie changed
everything for me. I was doing work that I loved, and I was
surrounded by others who were equally passionate. I was so
happy every day,” she said.
Oprah calls Walker’s seminal novel, first published in 1983, one
of the “national anthems for women’s empowerment.” Celie,
the protagonist of The Color Purple, endures the unimaginable
while growing up in rural Georgia—and triumphs, thanks in part
to the support of the book’s other women protagonists, Sofia
and Shug Avery.
IT’S ONE OF THE NATIONAL ANTHEMS FOR WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT. —OPRAH
In addition to the talented cast and crew of actors and singers (more on that below), the 2023 film is directed by
Blitz Bazawule (who also helmed Beyoncé’s Black Is King). Marcus Gardley (The Chi) wrote the script, which Oprah
says is now infused with a kind of magical realism: “We get to see and feel what’s going on in Celie’s imagination.”
Oprah was deeply invested in 2023’s The Color Purple, including choosing the perfect person for each role. Here
are her thoughts on the casting choices and everything else you need to know about this next evolution of The
Color Purple.

Complex societies and the growth of the law
Modern societies rely upon law as the primary mechanism to
control their development and manage their conflicts. Through
carefully designed rights and responsibilities, institutions and
procedures, law can enable humans to engage in increasingly
complex social and economic activities. Therefore, law plays an
important role in understanding how societies change. To explore
the interplay between law and society, we need to study how
both co-evolve over time. This requires a firm quantitative grasp
of the changes occurring in both domains. But while quantifying
societal change has been the subject of tremendous research
efforts in fields such as sociology, economics, or social physics for
many years, much less work has been done to quantify legal
change. In fact, legal scholars have traditionally regarded the law
as hardly quantifiable, and although there is no dearth of
empirical legal studies, it is only recently that researchers have
begun to apply data science methods to law. To date, there have
been relatively few quantitative works that explicitly address
legal change, and almost no scholarship exists that analyses the
time-evolving outputs of the legislative and executive branches of
national governments at scale. Unlocking these data sources for
the interdisciplinary scientific community will be crucial for
understanding how law and society interact.
Our work takes a step towards this goal. As a starting point,
we hypothesise that an increasingly diverse and interconnected
society might create increasingly diverse and interconnected
rules. Lawmakers create, modify, and delete legal rules to achieve
particular behavioural outcomes, often in an effort to respond to
perceived changes in societal needs. While earlier large-scale quantitative work focused on analysing an individual snapshot of
laws enacted by national parliaments, collections of snapshots
offer a window into the dynamic interaction between law and
society. Such collections represent complete, time-evolving
populations of statutes at the national level. Hence, no sampling
is needed for their analysis, and all changes we observe are direct
consequences of legislative activity. This feature makes
collections of nation-level statutes particularly suitable for
investigating temporal dynamics.
To preserve the intended multidimensionality of legal
document collections and explore how they change over time,
legislative corpora should be modelled as dynamic document
networks. In particular, since legal documents are carefully
organised and interlinked, their structure provides a more direct
window into their content and dynamics than their language:
Networks honour the deliberate design decisions made by the
document authors and circumvent some of the ambiguity
problems that natural language-based approaches inherently
face. In this paper, we therefore develop an informed data model
for legislative corpora, capturing the richness of legislative data
for exploration by social physics.
