SUMMARY:Applications for Returnee Support now being accepted
DESCRIPTION:Returnee support /Tagasipöördumistoetus \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Constitution of the Republic of Estonia lays down the right of every ethnic Estonian and Estonian citizen to settle in Estonia. The Integration Foundation has long supported the repatriation of Estonians who have stayed away from Estonia or were born abroad (from the age of 15) and Estonian citizens to Estonia\, paying return support to those in need. \n\n\n\nThe aim of the programme is to encourage Estonian citizens and ethnic Estonians and their descendants to settle in Estonia. It is important for Estonia that the population of the country increases on account of Estonian citizens and ethnic Estonians. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nMore info\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEesti Vabariigi Põhiseadus sätestab iga eestlase ja Eesti kodaniku õiguse asuda Eestisse elama. Integratsiooni Sihtasutus toetab pikka aega Eestist eemal viibinud või välisriigis sündinud eestlaste (alates 15-aasta vanusest) ja Eesti kodanike Eestisse naasmist\, makstes abivajajatele tagasipöördumistoetust. \n\n\n\nProgrammi eesmärk on soodustada Eesti kodanike ja etniliste eestlaste ning nende järeltulijate Eestisse elama asumist. Eesti jaoks on oluline\, et riigi elanikkond suureneks Eesti kodanike ja etniliste eestlaste arvel. \n\n\n\nKes saab tagasipöördumistoetust taotleda? \n\n\n\nTagasipöördumistoetus on suunatud pikka aega võõrsil viibinud lastega perede tagasipöördumise soodustamiseks\, kuivõrd aastatega suureneb pereliikmete arv ning tagasikolimisteenused on kulukad. Pikka aega võõrsil viibimise ehk seitsme aasta nõuet ei kohaldata kuni 40-aastastele välismaal magistri- ja doktoriõppe läbinud noortele\, et soodustada võõrsil hariduse saanud noorte tagasipöördumist ja tööle asumist Eestis. \n\n\n\n\nRohkem infot

SUMMARY:Tallinn Digital Summit 2022
DESCRIPTION:The Tallinn Digital Summit\, an annual event hosted by the Estonian Prime Minister\, will take place in Tallinn on 10–11 October. This year’s Summit will focus on delivering trusted connectivity through trusted partnerships.  \n\n\n\nThe Tallinn Digital Summit 2022 will take place on 10–11 October at the Tallinn Creative Hub. The two days consist of keynote speeches and panel discussions. While the event is conducted live in Tallinn\, virtual sessions are also accessible.  Register here.  \n\n\n\nConnectivity is at the heart of our efforts to build a free\, prosperous\, and sustainable future that reinforces the rules-based international order. \n\n\n\nThe Tallinn Digital Summit is an annual event hosted by the Estonian Prime Minister that brings together leaders from like-minded and digitally-advanced countries\, international organizations\, and the private sector to address the most pressing issues as well as to seize the many opportunities on our road toward a connected digital future. \n\n\n\nConnectivity is instrumental to ensuring geopolitical stability\, economic and energy security\, and a successful digital and green transformation. It is now a geostrategic imperative to do business with trusted partners according to our common interests\, our democratic values\, and our highest standards—the essence of trusted connectivity. \n\n\n\nThese themes underline this year’s Tallinn Digital Summit\, an annual event hosted by the Estonian Prime Minister that gathers together leaders of like-minded and digitally-advanced countries\, international organizations\, and the private sector to address the most pressing issues on our road toward a connected digital future. \n\n\n\nTallinn Digital Summit 2021 focused on Trusted Connectivity as a shared conceptual framework for like-minded democracies to consolidate and amplify their several connectivity initiatives while also highlighting the nexus between cross-border infrastructure\, geopolitics\, and digital technologies. \n\n\n\nThis year’s Summit will focus on delivering trusted connectivity through trusted partnerships. The Summit will elaborate on what a trusted and secure digital society could look like\, as well as on concrete steps for governments\, financial institutions\, international organizations\, technical experts\, and the private sector to take to ensure our digital future advances human freedom\, human dignity\, and the rules-based international order. \n\n\n\nWe will explore the role of trusted connectivity and trusted partnerships in ensuring global stability and the resilience of supply chains\, in enhancing energy\, economic\, and cyber security\, in cooperation on digital policy and international standards\, in the development and deployment of artificial intelligence\, clouds and satellites\, digital public goods\, and Web 3.0\, as well as in the reconstruction of a free and democratic Ukraine. All this necessitates the holistic shaping of the requisite political\, institutional\, and entrepreneurial ecosystems to increase public and private investments in infrastructure and utilizing the concept of trusted connectivity to construct an architecture of trust within the rules-based international system. \n\n\n\nThe Summit takes place against the backdrop of several momentous developments. First\, many have recently introduced new connectivity initiatives\, including the G7\, the EU’s Global Gateway\, the UK’s Clean Green Initiative\, and the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity. Second\, Russia’s aggression against Ukraine\, in conjunction with continuing cyberattacks against vital infrastructure\, have amply underscored the geopolitical importance of values-based investments into trusted connectivity and of reducing our strategic dependencies on malign actors. We are faced with new geostrategic imperatives but also with an auspicious opportunity to enhance our cooperation in the face of shared challenges. \n\n\n\n\nRegister for more info

SUMMARY:Baltic Advocacy Days
DESCRIPTION:This event organized by JBANC is a timely opportunity for Baltic Americans and their friends to come together and engage with Congress about the security and economic issues impacting the United States’ relationship with the Baltic states. As a constituent\, you have enormous power to shine a light on these very important issues in today’s reality of a horrific and unjustified war that the Russian Federation is waging against the Ukrainian people. All this happening threateningly close to the Baltics.  \n\n\n\nFor the second year in a row\, Baltic Advocacy Days will be held virtually\, spanning the week of May 2-6\, 2022. All meetings will be scheduled during regular business hours (EST time). \n\n\n\nDue to the uncertainties that the Covid-19 pandemic has introduced to our social lives\, we have chosen to take this approach\, which also opens up participation to anyone with a smart device and stable internet connection from around the country. With Congress slowly opening back up\, there might be some opportunities to also organize in-person meetings if possible. As of this time\, we don’t know the timetable for a reopening.  \n\n\n\nNo prior experience is needed to participate as a Baltic advocate. \n\n\n\nJBANC will issue a one-pager and brief you on the priorities that we plan to raise. We will also provide a voluntary training opportunity for everyone involved\, as well as assign you with a team of other constituents and/or JBANC team members. All these activities will serve as support mechanisms in your preparation process. If you are interested in leading a group or reaching out to any of the offices\, we could also provide you with useful information about this process. If not\, you are welcome to play a background role during these meetings\, which is just as important. Strength in numbers can be an advantage! \n\n\n\nBy filling out the registration form we assume you are making a commitment to participate in at least one meeting with a Congressional office as a constituent. Each meeting typically lasts around 15-30 minutes.  \n\n\n\nWhile we understand that schedules might change\, it’s important that you make every effort to participate once you have made this commitment. The virtual format gives us all a little wiggle room when scheduling these meetings. \n\n\n\n\nRegister here

Travel costs will be reimbursed after the exchange up to 300€ based on actual costs. There could be exceptions of increasing/decreasing the limit depending on the overall travel budget and the distance of individual journey. For instance\, as travel costs from neighboring countries are under the limit and from more distant countries over the limit\, it will be balanced to be fair to everyone.
