LSE wins environmental award LSE has won a ‘Highly Commended’
award at the 2012 Green Gown Awards, at a ceremony at the University of
Birmingham on Monday 5 November. The Green Gowns are the most prestigious
recognition of environmental achievement in the higher and further education
sector.
The School’s winning entry was the ‘Sustainable Projects Fund’, which
funds staff and student-led environmental projects on campus with a 10p
‘tax’ on bottled water sold at LSE catering outlets.
The judges commented: 'This is an innovative and well administered
funding model… Successful applicants to the Fund gain a wide range of
experience through managing the implementation of their ideas.'
The Sustainable Projects Fund is not just for students, all LSE staff are
encouraged to apply too.
Details of the 2012-13 Fund and how to enter will be launched in the
next few weeks.

Partnership PhD Mobility Bursaries awarded for 2012-13 Ten LSE
postgraduate students have been given the opportunity to spend two to three
months at one of LSE’s five institutional partners in 2012-13
through the School’s Partnership PhD Mobility Bursaries scheme.
The scheme began in 2008-09 with Columbia University (New York), the
National University of Singapore and Sciences Po (Paris) and expanded in
2010-11 to include Peking University (Beijing) and the University of Cape
Town. Each year, LSE funds up to two places at each of the five institutions
with students receiving a bursary of £2,500 to support travel and living
costs.
Whilst abroad, participants work informally with an advisor on their PhD
thesis research and/or on related publications and presentations. The visits
also introduce them to the academic culture, professional contacts and
employment opportunities of another country. Students registered for PhD
studies in any LSE department who have been upgraded to full doctoral
student status are eligible to apply. A School selection panel assesses
applications on their academic merit, including the rationale for visiting a
particular partner institution and for working with their proposed academic
advisor.

security, and for her avid advocacy of the development and promotion of a
distinctive global, cosmopolitan democracy and human transnational civil
society.

Individual staff circumstances for REF 2014 To ensure that REF
processes are fair and inclusive, LSE is collecting data on individual
circumstances from all staff eligible for submission.
The data will be used to identify which staff may submit fewer than the
maximum four outputs per person, in accordance with HEFCE’s REF guidance.
All eligible academic staff should have received an email from the Research
Division in July inviting them to complete a disclosure form. If you
have recently joined the School or believe you may be eligible but have not
received a form, contact Javeria Parvez at
j.parvez@lse.ac.uk. Completed forms
should be returned to Javeria by Friday 14 December.
Eligible staff who do not return a completed form will be assumed to have
no circumstances which affected their research outputs for the REF and will
therefore be expected to submit four outputs. Not declaring circumstances at
this stage may affect their right to an appeal against the School's decision
on submitting them for the REF. Further details can be
found here.
As personal information collected in this exercise has been obtained
solely for REF purposes, anyone wishing the information to be formally
recorded should contact their departmental HR partner. Should you require
support or advice, contact
Disability and Well-being or
Equality and Diversity.

Lunchtime meditation Meditation is often understood as tuning
out the chatter, the endless thoughts, questions, and anxieties but in fact,
it is more about tuning into a deeper, quieter part within you.
The benefits of meditation and mindfulness are widely acknowledged.
Finding a place to pause and breathe in the midst of a busy working day can
make a big difference. Meditation allows you to settle into a space where
you can connect with your true intentions and mindfulness allows you to
remember those intentions every day.
LSE staff are invited to attend lunchtime mediation sessions taking place
on Mondays (during term time) from 1.05-1.50pm in the LSE Chaplaincy. No
previous experience of meditation is needed, a brief introduction will be
provided followed by a silent sit.
Sessions are free and there is no booking required, just turn up on the
day. Please arrive early to give yourself a few minutes of silence before
the start.
For more information, email Erika Mansnerus at
e.mansnerus@lse.ac.uk or Tina
Basi at t.basi@lse.ac.uk.

Schizophrenia costs society 11.8 billion pounds a year, says LSE
PSSRU report Schizophrenia costs society £11.8 billion a year, much of
which could be spent more effectively, according to an LSE PSSRU report.
Only one in ten patients is currently offered potentially life-changing
psychological therapies. The report, An Abandoned Illness, describes
'shameful' standards of care on some acute mental health wards, which can
make patients worse rather than better. It calls for every ward in England
to be brought to a standard where people would recommend it to a friend or
relative.
The report highlights the disparity between the money spent on people
with physical illness and those with mental illness; only 13 per cent of the
NHS budget goes towards treating mental ill health, even though 23 per cent
of conditions dealt with by the NHS are mental rather than physical.

Working for a divorce An increased risk of divorce encourages
women to work longer hours outside the home according to new research from
LSE.
According to the research by Dr Berkay Özcan, published in the latest
issue of European Economic Review, for every one per cent increase in
the risk of marital breakdown, women work an extra 12 minutes per week.
Dr Özcan and his co-researchers used the legalisation of divorce in
Ireland in 1996 to determine how the subsequent marriage breakdown rates
affected women’s participation in the workforce.
Dr Özcan said: 'We see that women who are at a higher risk of divorce
significantly increase how much they work. And it isn’t that women working
outside the home are more likely to get divorced. Rather, faced with a
rising probability of divorce, women work more, whether they ultimately
separate or not. They are working as a form of insurance in case of divorce
or in anticipation of it.'

ASEAN ill equipped to stand up to China and the US, says new LSE
IDEAS report As world leaders gather this week for the summit of the
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in Phnom Penh, an LSE report
concludes that the group is ill equipped to defend its own interests against
those of China and the US.
The New Geopolitics of Southeast Asia, from LSE IDEAS, a centre
for the study of international affairs, features articles by academics from
LSE and leading universities in Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and the
Philippines.
Although ASEAN represents a market of over half a billion people, with a
combined GDP growth currently double the global average, the report argues
that its consensual approach to fostering regional economic integration
leaves it unable to lead in the task of forging a regional strategy, meaning
that Southeast Asian states risk becoming pawns in a geopolitical clash
between the two superpowers. It therefore requires reform and renewal to
enable it to serve as a third pole in the new geopolitics of Southeast Asia,
with the capacity and authority to stand up to China and the US.

Energy and the Economy: the 2030 outlook for UK businesses Five
years into the financial crisis, the uncertainties go beyond economics to
social trends, environmental concerns and technology. How will Britain’s
demographics change? When will renewable energy get cheaper? What
might be the impact of different policy developments?
RWE npower commissioned Professor Sam Fankhauser, co-director of LSE's
Grantham Research Institute, and his colleague Dr Alex Bowen, to explore
three alternative scenarios for how these issues could affect UK energy in
2030.
The scenarios range from a recovered Eurozone to economic stagnation and
the report suggests ways for UK businesses to prepare for this uncertain
future, including focusing on energy efficiency, making energy management a
senior management issue and taking advantage of self generation
opportunities. It was commissioned via
LSE Enterprise.

Financial institutions are increasingly investing in programmes to
understand and manage their risk cultures, finds new report Despite
near universal agreement that the organisational risk culture of banks and
other financial institutions (BOFIs) played a major role in the global
financial crisis, a new report has found that there is still no clear
consensus on how such risk cultures can be effectively managed. Yet there is
considerable activity and BOFIs are now starting to identify ways of making
risk culture more visible and manageable.
Risk Culture in Financial Organisations: an interim report,
published by LSE and University of Plymouth, looks at how BOFIs have sought to
address the problems of risk culture identified in the fallout of the
financial crisis.
The authors interviewed 15 corporate risk officers and senior managers
from nine major financial organisations. Their answers indicate that
although risk culture is difficult to render manageable, change programmes
are underway and companies are experimenting in varying ways.

Cruel Britannia: a secret history of torture On: Tuesday 20
November from 6.30-7.30pm in the Wolfson Theatre, New Academic Building
Speaker: Ian Cobain,

The Politics of Financial Crises: lessons across continents
On: Thursday 29 November from 9am-6pm in
Arundel House, 13-15 Arundel Street, London, WC2R 3DX
This one-day event will bring together policy makers, practitioners and
academics to discuss the politics of financial crises from a comparative
perspective. The conference will analyse the series of financial crises that
have taken place in different parts of the world since the 1980s.
It will focus on three main aspects of the politics of financial crises:
the international and domestic politics of financial crises, and
state-society relations in the context of financial crises. It will examine
how international, domestic and societal actors reacted to crises and how
their reactions shaped short-term policy responses as well as medium- to
long-term political and policy consequences.
This event is free to attend. Lunch and refreshments will be provided
throughout the day. If you are interested in attending, email your request
to
Jorge Madrazo at

with..... Sarah Alexandra George
I graduated from LSE in 2011 with
a BSc in philosophy, logic and
scientific method and I now work in
LSE's Student Recruitment Office.
I love writing, travelling and
spicy food. I have also recently taken
over as the unofficial captain of
the LSEAU Muay Thai (MMA) club;
all LSE staff and non-LSE members
are welcome to come and try out a
class. You can find us on
Tuesdays and Thursdays at the
badminton court, lower ground floor of the
Old Building, from
8-10pm.
Do you like to go to the LSE’s
eateries? Which is your favourite
and why?
My favourite place to eat on
campus is definitely the Brunch
Bowl; I just can’t bring myself to
call it the Fourth Floor Restaurant!
When I was a student I went two
to three times a week with my best
friend and we’d always share a huge
plate of stir fry (I actually don’t
think I’ve ever eaten anything else
there). In fact, we were such
regular customers that we became
good friends with Tony and
Cornelius, stir fry chefs
extraordinaires.
I always look forward to going to
the Brunch Bowl as a staff member
not just for the food but for all
the amazing memories.
Which has been the most
interesting LSE Public Lecture you
have attended?
Aung Sung Suu Kyi was definitely
the most emotional. Being able to
sing happy birthday to her was a
moment I will never forget. I also
really enjoyed seeing the ex-poet
laureate Andrew Motion. Hearing him
read out his poetry was very
inspiring.
Which book are you currently
reading and which have you enjoyed
most in the past?
I'm currently reading Evelyn
Waugh’s A Handful of Dust. A
slightly depressing portrayal of
English landed gentry with a most
unusual and unexpected ending.
My absolute favourite books are
the Harry Potter series. I’ve read
each book at least 20 times (except
for the Chamber of Secrets,
I’m scared of snakes and it gives me
nightmares!).
What is your favourite animal?
My favourite animal is my
beautiful golden retriever Holly.
However, my favourite animals would be horses. I’ve been
riding since I was three and I’m
more comfortable in the saddle than
anywhere else.
You are a contestant on the
dinner party TV programme Come
Dine With Me. What do you cook
for your guests?
Because of my love of Thailand… Starters would
include prawn and passion fruit
toast, tom yum soup and pork balls
wrapped in lettuce dipped in chilli
sauce.
That would be followed by my
personal favourite kai krapow
(minced chicken fried with holy
basil and chilli), barbecued sea
bass with shredded lemongrass and
kaffir lime leaves, and perhaps some
tiger prawns in a black pepper and
garlic sauce as well.
After that I’d be so exhausted
from all the cooking I’d just have
to have lots of fruit for desert:
mangoes, papaya, passion fruit and
baby pineapples. Oh and lychee
martinis for everyone.
Who would be your ideal
celebrity travelling companion on a
long journey?
Angelina Jolie, no question about
it. |
