I had a nice, informative – I'd like to think, to both sides – back-and-forth with an AFP reader this week, on the costs to attend the University of Virginia, and the impact that UVA Athletics does or doesn't have on that. The reader was responding to my recent series of articles discussing the approach that the athletics director, Carla Williams, has been taking to keep UVA Athletics competitive in the still-developing era in which college athletics finances are driven by the need to provide significant compensation for student-athletes in high-profile, money-generating sports like football and men's basketball.

Gaza non è più solo una strage. Gaza è uno specchio. E quello che ci rimanda è insopportabile. Non ci dice solo che stanno morendo dei bambini, ci dice che siamo il tipo di civiltà che guarda un bambino morire di fame e gira la faccia dall'altra parte. Ci dice che siamo capaci di imbastire vertici e risoluzioni, ma non di far passare un camion con sacchi di riso. Non è più il genocidio di Gaza. È il nostro suicidio morale. Le statistiche sono un pugno in pieno volto: almeno 115 morti di fame, secondo le autorità sanitarie locali. L'UNICEF denuncia che l'80% delle vittime da malnutrizione sono bambini. Medici Senza Frontiere ha contato un quarto di bambini e donne incinte malnutriti nelle sue strutture. La stampa internazionale – AP, BBC, AFP, Reuters – ha lanciato un appello congiunto: “fate passare gli aiuti”. E intanto, mentre Gaza agonizza, il governo israeliano si barrica in dichiarazioni ambigue. Un ministro parla di “Gaza tutta ebraica”, Netanyahu finge sconcerto.Macron annuncia che la Francia riconoscerà lo Stato di Palestina, Israele lo accusa di premiare Hamas. E noi? Dov'eravamo, quando i bambini morivano? Dov'eravamo mentre si discuteva di "cessate il fuoco" come fosse un'opzione diplomatica, non un'urgenza umana? La verità è che Gaza morirà anche per colpa nostra. Perché l'unica arma che avremmo avuto era lo scandalo, e l'abbiamo messo via. Gaza morirà e noi resteremo qui, con i nostri silenzi, i nostri distinguo, le nostre frasi passive. Indifendibili. E per la prima volta, avremo ciò che ci meritiamo: il disprezzo dei vivi. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

The United States' decision to withdraw from UNESCO was "regrettable" but "anticipated", the organization's director-general said on Tuesday, warning the move could undermine cooperation with US-based partners.该组织总干事周二表示,美国退出联合国教科文组织的决定“令人遗憾”,但“意料之中”,并警告称此举可能会破坏与美国合作伙伴的合作。"This decision contradicts the fundamental principles of multilateralism, and may affect first and foremost our many partners in the United States of America—communities seeking site inscription on the World Heritage List, creative city status and university chairs," Audrey Azoulay said in a statement.奥德蕾·阿祖莱在一份声明中表示:“这一决定违背了多边主义的基本原则,并可能首先影响我们在美利坚合众国的许多合作伙伴——寻求列入《世界遗产名录》的社区、创意城市地位和大学教席。”。The Donald Trump administration announced on Tuesday that the US would again leave UNESCO, just two years after rejoining under former president Joe Biden.唐纳德·特朗普政府周二宣布,美国将在前总统乔·拜登重新加入教科文组织仅两年后再次离开该组织。State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce said the organization promotes "divisive social and cultural causes", and its focus on United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is "at odds" with "America First foreign policy".美国国务院发言人Tammy Bruce表示,该组织促进“分裂的社会和文化事业”,其对联合国可持续发展目标的关注与“美国优先外交政策”“不一致”。Washington also cited UNESCO's decision in 2011 to admit the State of Palestine as a member state, calling it "highly problematic", contrary to US policy, and a factor in what it sees as anti-Israel rhetoric within the agency.华盛顿还引用了联合国教科文组织2011年接纳巴勒斯坦国为成员国的决定,称其“问题重重”,这与美国的政策背道而驰,也是该机构内部反以色列言论的一个因素。The withdrawal will take effect at the end of next year.撤军将于明年年底生效。Trump previously pulled the US out of UNESCO in 2017 on the grounds of "anti-Israel bias".特朗普此前曾于2017年以“反以色列偏见”为由将美国退出联合国教科文组织。Azoulay rejected the US claims, saying they "contradict the reality of UNESCO's efforts, particularly in the field of Holocaust education and the fight against antisemitism".阿祖莱驳斥了美国的说法,称这些说法“与联合国教科文组织的努力相矛盾,特别是在大屠杀教育和反犹太主义斗争领域”。UNESCO is the only UN agency responsible for these issues and has received broad praise from institutions including the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, the World Jewish Congress and the American Jewish Committee, she said.她说,联合国教科文组织是唯一负责这些问题的联合国机构,并得到了包括美国大屠杀纪念馆、世界犹太人大会和美国犹太人委员会在内的机构的广泛赞誉。The agency has supported 85 countries to educate students about the Holocaust and genocides, and "will continue to carry out these missions, despite inevitably reduced resources", she added.她补充说,该机构已支持85个国家对学生进行大屠杀和种族灭绝的教育,并“尽管资源不可避免地减少,但仍将继续执行这些任务”。UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric also defended the agency, saying UNESCO—and Azoulay personally—have been "at the forefront" of the fight against antisemitism.联合国发言人斯特凡纳·迪雅里克也为该机构辩护,称联合国教科文组织和阿祖莱本人一直处于反对反犹太主义的“最前沿”。UNESCO's decision to admit Palestine as a member in 2011 triggered a US law barring funding to the agency, resulting in more than $500 million in unpaid dues after the Trump administration first withdrew. At the time, the US had been contributing about $70 million annually—about 22 percent of UNESCO's budget.2011年,联合国教科文组织决定接纳巴勒斯坦为成员国,这引发了美国法律禁止向该机构提供资金,导致特朗普政府首次退出后,有超过5亿美元的未缴会费。当时,美国每年捐款约7000万美元,约占教科文组织预算的22%。When the Biden administration rejoined in 2023, the US was planning to pay more than $600 million in back payments.当拜登政府于2023年重新加入时,美国计划支付超过6亿美元的欠款。Azoulay said UNESCO has "undertaken major structural reforms" and diversified its funding since 2018 to offset the effect of the earlier withdrawal. The US contribution now makes up just 8 percent of the agency's budget, even as the overall budget has grown.A UNESCO source, speaking anonymously, described the US move as "purely political, without any real factual base".阿祖莱表示,自2018年以来,教科文组织“进行了重大结构性改革”,并实现了资金多元化,以抵消早些时候撤军的影响。尽管总体预算有所增长,但美国的捐款目前仅占该机构预算的8%。一位匿名的联合国教科文组织消息人士称,美国的举动“纯粹是政治性的,没有任何真正的事实依据”。The organization had already been "forced" to do without US money for several years after their departure in 2017, the source told AFP.该消息人士告诉法新社,该组织在2017年离开后的几年里已经“被迫”没有美国资金。Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said on Wednesday that the US' decision to quit UNESCO "is not what a major country should do", adding that China has always firmly supported the work of the agency.中国外交部发言人郭家昆周三表示,美国退出联合国教科文组织的决定“不是一个大国应该做的”,并补充说,中国一贯坚定支持该机构的工作。"On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the UN, we call on all countries to reaffirm their commitment to multilateralism, and take concrete action to support the UN-centered international system, the international order underpinned by international law, and the basic norms governing international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter," he said.他说:“值此联合国成立80周年之际,我们呼吁所有国家重申对多边主义的承诺,并采取具体行动支持以联合国为中心的国际体系、以国际法为基础的国际秩序以及基于《联合国宪章》宗旨和原则的国际关系基本准则。”。France, where UNESCO is based, stated in a news release that it regrets the US' decision to withdraw from the agency, which was founded in 1946 "to prevent conflicts through education, culture and tolerance".联合国教科文组织总部所在地法国在一份新闻稿中表示,它对美国决定退出该机构表示遗憾,该机构成立于1946年,旨在“通过教育、文化和宽容防止冲突”。French President Emmanuel Macron said on X that UNESCO had his "unwavering support" that would not weaken after the US departure.法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙在X上表示,联合国教科文组织得到了他“坚定不移的支持”,在美国离开后不会减弱。Jack Midgley, principal strategy consultant at Midgley & Co and an adjunct associate professor at Georgetown University, called Trump's decision to withdraw from UNESCO "a counterproductive act of self-isolation and meanness on a global scale".Midgley&Co的首席战略顾问、乔治城大学的兼职副教授杰克·米奇利称,特朗普退出联合国教科文组织的决定是“在全球范围内自我孤立和卑鄙的适得其反的行为”。"The president has gone from 'America first' to 'America only', no matter what the cost to global culture or to America's standing as a promoter of peace and human dignity," he told China Daily.他告诉《中国日报》:“总统已经从‘美国优先'转变为‘仅美国',无论这会给全球文化或美国作为和平与人类尊严的推动者的地位带来什么代价。”。multilateralismn.多边主义/ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/human dignityn.人权/ˈhjuːmən ˈdɪɡnɪti/
In Epping, just outside London, protests have taken place near a hotel housing asylum seekers. While mainstream news outlets reported the story, a video filmed by YouTuber Wesley Winter attracted hundreds of thousands of views online. His presence - and the reaction to other journalists on the ground - has reignited debate over who the public trusts to shape stories like these. Wesley Winter reflects on how he works and what drives his audience.Agence France-Presse says its journalists in Gaza are now facing starvation. The agency is working to evacuate remaining freelancers and their families as conditions continue to deteriorate. Phil Chetwynd, AFP's Global News Director, describes what his reporters are telling him from the ground - and what might be lost if they are forced to stop.In Rome, the Vatican is hosting a global gathering of Catholic influencers - from priests and nuns to lay creators with large digital followings. The Church's media strategy dates back a century, but the rise of online evangelisation presents new opportunities and risks. Dr Justin Tackett, a philosopher at North Carolina State University, and Mary-Aoife Ong, co-director of Carlo Acutis Youth Ireland, discuss.Presenters: Katie Razzall and Ros Atkins Producer: Lisa Jenkinson Assistant Producers: Martha Owen and Emily Channon Production Coordinator: Ruth Waites Technical Coordinator: Samuel Iyiola Sound: Robin Schroder

Sono 27 i ragazzi delle isole del Pacifico ad aver fatto pronunciare la Corte internazionale di giustizia: concedere nuove licenze fossili oppure i sussidi fossili possono essere illecito che viola il diritto internazionale, e potrebbe obbligare a risarcire le persone colpite dagli eventi estremi. Oggi è l'overshoot day globale, ossia il giorno in cui esauriamo le risorse della Terra in grado di rigenerarsi nell'anno 2025. Non era mai arrivato così presto, eppure sappiamo come potremmo invertire la rotta e guadagnare giorni. A Gaza ormai perfino i reporter sono a rischio di morire di fame, con la denuncia di AFP, agenzia di stampa francese, così come i medici che operano non riescono più a lavorare per via della mancanza di cibo. Gianumberto Accinelli, entomologo e racconta storie, ci racconta dell'artificiale rotta migratoria degli ibis che un professore tedesco ricostruisce con loro durante l'autunno.

Americans are divided by geography. Most of us live in overwhelmingly red or blue Congressional Districts. We are less likely than ever to know someone from the other side of the political spectrum. We are often misinformed about what members of the other tribe actually believe. In this episode we speak with Kirk Tatnall, Starla Brown, and Cade Smith about a Braver Angels exchange program. Participants from New York City and Jackson, Mississippi visited each other over two weekends. They held workshops and meetings, engaging in discussions across differences.“I just have a fundamental underlying belief that you cannot understand someone else unless you know them,” Kirk Tatnall told us. “You cannot really get to the motivations and the passions and the drive of other people until you see how they live.”The exchange began with the idea that only by coming together physically - in each other's backyards - can we begin to understand the other side.“We got to know each other, and we were allowed to be vulnerable in a very safe, wonderful environment,” said Starla Brown. “Being able to be vulnerable with people who don't agree with you is empowering.”Exchange participants learned about two very different parts of the country, and engaged with people not like them. “It's not just speaking. It's being open to seeing someone in a completely new light, and if you do you can never see them the old way,” Cade Smith told “How Do We Fix It?”This podcast is our latest to report on the people, projects, and ideas of Braver Angels, who aim to restore the American spirit of working together.Our guests:Starla Brown is the current State Director for Americans for Prosperity's Mississippi Chapter. Starla is a 5th generation Mississippian and spent a portion of her life in South Florida where she worked in the construction industry and marketing development, as well as with the Florida chapter of AFP. Kirk Tatnall has been a New Yorker for most of his adult life. His career in advertising has spanned the digital marketing era and he continues to focus his time at the crossroads of media, data and adtech to deliver cross-channel television solutions. He is a husband and father to an adult son who continues to seek out reconciliation across a deeply divided nation.Cade grew up in Grenada, Mississippi and is the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Access and Community Engagement in the Division of Access, Opportunity, and Community Engagement at The University of Mississippi. His work includes advancing the formation of collaborative partnerships between UM scholars and communities. He is also responsible for building bridges across divided communities through dialogue, education, and scholarly inquiry. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

With no housing, no job, and only $70 to her name, she began a new chapter grounded in faith, purpose, and service to others. Her powerful voice and lived experience have become a force for criminal justice reform in Arkansas and beyond. Joining her is Ryan Norris, AFP's Arkansas State Director, who saw in Ruby not just a survivor—but a leader. Together, they've worked on legislation that restores dignity, seals records, and creates real second chances. What started as policy work became a lasting friendship, one that's changed both their lives—and inspired a new generation, including Ryan's daughter, Gracie. This is a moving story of grit, grace, and the impact one voice can have when matched with a mission.

In this episode, we talk with Santiago Lyon about trusting what we see. Discussing his own work with the Content Authenticity Initiative, he stresses the need for provenance information to be available to consumers. Santiago highlights the importance of clarifying the differences between photojournalism and stock photography as they entail differing ethical considerations. He also explores the influence of context, usage and intent in relation to ethics. Santiago invites photographers to embrace AI while also discussing the difficulty it poses to intellectual property.What you'll find inside: “For me the whole career aspect of journalism was more of a vocation and more of a calling than a sort of 9-5 job. And with that vocation comes the responsibility to adhere to those codes of ethics and to be truthful and transparent and not to mislead people and to be sure that all the work that you're doing is a faithful recording of what's going on around you.” (7.03)“A stock photograph has all sorts of ethical issues from the photojournalistic standpoint, the way it was edited, what might have been taken out of it for stock photo purposes et cetera. And the fact that the captions in stock photography are very different from the captions in new photography. So, the context becomes very important, you know context in news photography is everything.” (15.46)“Customers know based on the source whether it's AP or Reuters or AFP that it's a trustworthy reliable image. So, the basic commodity that they're dealing with in that world and in journalism at large is the notion of trust, and it's hugely important.” (19.03)“We like to think about it like a digital national label… for news content it's important that people have access to this provenance information so that they can make better informed decisions about what to trust and what not to trust.” (20.50)“It's a question of whether you can embrace the power of technology and still be true to your values wherever they may lie. Whether it's in the journalism world or the creative world or anything else for that matter.” (37.01)What does photography ethics mean to Santiago? “I mean to me photography ethics is really about veracity and transparency and accuracy and context and when someone looks at a picture that they have all of that information at their disposal and can trust the image that they're looking at…. For me it really means photographing things as they are and describing them as they are. Having that level of transparency while at the same time allowing for layers of creativity that can interpret the scene in a way that renders it compelling to the viewer without compromising the authenticity of the scene.” (44.11)Links:Content Authenticity Initiative Associated PressReutersAFPHave I Been Trained

En plena ola de calor que azota el continente, la Comisión Europea oficializó su objetivo de recortar en un 90% las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero en 2040, pero propuso varias concesiones a los países reticentes. Europa es el continente que más rápido se está calentando. Olas de calor con más de 40°C como la que se registró esta semana, serán más frecuentes con la curva actual del cambio climático, indican las proyecciones científicas. En este contexto, el comisario europeo para el Clima, Wopke Hoekstra, mantuvo el objetivo de reducir en un 90% las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero en 2040 en relación con los niveles de 1990. Una meta ambiciosa, fruto de meses de negociaciones, pero “insuficiente”, estima Anabella Rossemberg, experta en negociaciones climáticas en la Red Acción Climática, coalición de ONG ambientales. “Desde la sociedad civil, pensamos que como segundo emisor histórico de gases de efecto invernadero, este objetivo no refleja adecuadamente su responsabilidad”, declaró Rosemberg. La presentación del objetivo climatico de la U.E. conlleva, sin embargo, tres cláusulas de flexibilidad que el comisario Hoekstra justifico como una prueba de “pragmatismo” para una discusión “sensible”. Según el plan del ejecutivo europeo, los países de la Unión podrán compensar hasta el 3% de sus emisiones invirtiendo en mecanismos de reducción del CO2 en el extranjero, como proyectos de reforestación. Un mecanismo de créditos de carbono que el propio Consejo Científico Consultivo Europeo sobre Cambio Climático rechazó en un informe a principios de junio. “Los créditos internacionales (de carbono) pueden parecer rentables a escala mundial, pero conllevan grandes riesgos para los mercados de carbono y para la integridad medioambiental. Por este motivo, el Consejo Asesor no recomienda su uso como sustituto de las reducciones de emisiones nacionales en el marco del objetivo de 2040”, indican los científicos en el reporte. “El 3% no es despreciable. Se trata de sumas potencialmente considerables que se gastarán en el extranjero en lugar de financiar la transición en Europa”, lamenta Neil Makarokk, experto del grupo Strategic Perspectives, en declaraciones a AFP. Bruselas alentará también la captura y almacenamiento del Co2 en el subsuelo, una tecnología costosa y controvertida porque no incita a la industria a reducir sus emisiones. En su trayectoria de descarbonización, los estados miembros podrán también compensar emisiones de Co2 un sector industrial con más esfuerzos en otro sector. Lo que el comisario califica de flexibilidad es en realidad un retroceso para satisfacer a ciertos intereses nacionales, estima Anabella Rosemberg. “Hay jefes de estado climatoescépticos como en Hungría. Sabemos también que Francia presionó para imponer la idea de ‘neutralidad tecnológica', lo que significa no priorizar a las energías renovables por sobre la energía nuclear, que es una prioridad para el gobierno francés”, agrega la especialista en políticas climáticas. “Distintos países de la Unión Europea han reclamado su pequeña porción de beneficio en lo que tendría que ser un plan para salvar la humanidad, en un contexto de olas de calor nunca vistas en Europa”, concluyó Rosemberg. La meta de 2040 es una etapa crucial en la ruta hacia la neutralidad de carbono que la Unión Europea quiere alcanzar en 2050 mediante la generalización de los autos eléctricos, la renovación térmica de las viviendas y la reducción gradual de la importación de combustibles fósiles.

In this inspiring episode of American Potential, host David From is joined by Daniel Bassali, Vice President of Public Affairs for Americans for Prosperity, to discuss the launch of the One Small Step campaign—AFP's bold, nationwide effort to celebrate America's 250th anniversary by spotlighting the everyday citizens who are shaping the future of freedom. Bassali explains how One Small Step draws inspiration from iconic figures like Harriet Tubman, Betsy Ross, and Neil Armstrong—people who took action not for fame, but because it mattered. These American pioneers prove that profound change starts with a single courageous act. And today, that legacy lives on in community members testifying at city council meetings, homeschooling moms fighting for education freedom, and students like Caleb Williams who've become powerful policy advocates before the age of 21. Bassali and From explore how AFP serves as a platform to amplify these local voices, empower bottom-up solutions, and fuel a new generation of civic leadership. Whether it's helping someone write a letter to the editor or organizing grassroots momentum around school choice, every small step adds up to something greater. This episode is a rallying cry: You don't need a title or a microphone to make a difference. You just need to take the first step.
