Finland is willing to reduce income taxes for those it most wants to attract.

The cover of 'An Anthropology of Crosslocations' and a quote from a book review written by Fabiola Mancinelli and published in 'Social Anthropology/Anthropologie Sociale'. The quote reads: "The book's accessibility, combined with its rich theoretical engagement and wide-ranging case studies, makes it particularly valuable for scholars and students in anthropology, geography and migration studies, as well as professionals in spatial analysis, policy-making and interdisciplinary research."
'An Anthropology of Crosslocations' by Sarah Green et al. (2024) offers a fresh way of understanding #location and the connections and disconnections between places.

An IPBES social media image featuring a circular white frame containing a quote, set against an aerial cityscape background that transitions from hazy yellow-brown to clear blue skies. The quote is from Matt Jones, identified as Co-chair of the IPBES Business and Biodiversity Assessment. The text describes the report's comprehensive scope, drawing from thousands of sources into a single framework. The IPBES logo appears in white in the top right corner with the tagline "Science and Policy for People and Nature."
This is a pivotal moment for business and financial institutions to cut through the confusion of countless methods and metrics and use the Report to take meaningful steps towards transformative change.

@yhys.bsky.social -tutkijat avaavat moninaisen tiedon hyödyntämisen mahdollisuuksia tilanteessa, jossa tieteen vapautta rajataan poliittisin ja ideologisin perustein - samalla kun tekoälypohjainen vääristely, valeuutiset ja disinformaatio lisääntyvät. Lukusuositus:
