Description : The Legislature’s Planning Committee plays a critical role in both the Nebraska Unicameral and, more broadly, in our state government’s efforts to plan and prepare for the success and wellbeing of future generations. The Planning Committee works with the University of Nebraska-Omaha’s Center for Public Affairs Research (CPAR), which compiles and presents data about demographics and the workforce to the Committee. The Committee uses that data to set priorities and then makes recommendations to the Legislature for legislation that aligns with those goals.

Description : The mass entrepreneurship policy has introduced a new era of sustainable development in China. Yet, the policy alone does not describe how individuals and organizations might pursue this new approach to economic expansion. In this paper, Xiaoming Yang and his co-author suggest that under this new policy, partnerships between social ventures and donors, beneficiaries, and government agencies serve as a vehicle to co-create value for sustainable development.
