As a family physician, Dr. Melissa Lem knew she couldn't stay silent on the health dangers of climate change. But when she spoke out against the use of fossil fuels, the backlash was more vitriolic and personal than she ever expected. She's not alone. From death threats to sexual intimidation and sinister phone calls, Dr. Melissa Lem, Tzeporah Berman, and Judy Wilson have paid a high cost for their climate advocacy work. It's a trend that has alarmed human rights organizations like Amnesty International, who say that women—especially racialized and sexually diverse women—are disproportionately targeted. On this week's Storylines, producer Molly Segal meets three climate advocates who set out to speak up for the planet, and are now needing to speak up for themselves.

Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier has been in a United States maximum security prison for nearly 50 years. The US government says he aided in the murder of two FBI agents. But since his trial, allegations of false evidence and coerced testimony have come up. Over the years, the United Nations, activists, and Amnesty International have all called for his release.  In this episode:  Nick Tilsen (@NickTilsen), President of NDN Collective Episode credits: This episode was produced by David Enders, with Amy Walters, Chloe K.

[00:30] America in Crisis—Biden on Vacation (14 minutes) During a speech at the Global Success Conference in Las Vegas yesterday, Tucker Carlson discussed the uneasy feeling in the U.S. right now and stated that next year will be “like nothing we've ever seen in the country.” The country is falling apart, but Biden has spent 39 percent of his presidency on vacation so far. [14:00] 60th Anniversary of JFK Assassination (9 minutes) Today is the 60th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Great Again explains that this tragic event helps us better understand the prophesied downfall of America. [23:00] Ceasefire in Gaza (15 minutes) Joebama helped negotiate a temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hamas for a hostage exchange. Hamas agreed to release 50 hostages in return for Israel releasing 150 prisoners. The media still refuses to accept video evidence from the Israel Defense Forces that Hamas has been using al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza as a military base—even though a few years ago, those same outlets openly discussed the subject. In 2014, Amnesty International revealed that Hamas used al-Shifa to interrogate and torture Palestinians during the 2014 Israel-Gaza conflict. [38:15] Lara Logan Discusses January 6 (17 minutes) Yesterday, journalist Lara Logan discussed the fake January 6 narrative. Part two of the interview will air on Friday's Trumpet Daily.

Slavelignende arbejdsforhold. Kummerlige boliger og tusindvis af døde migrantarbejdere.Op til Verdensmesterskaberne i fodbold i Qatar sidste år var der i danske medier massivt fokus på migrantarbejdernes vilkår o landet. Men siden da er de for de flestes vedkommende røget lidt i glemmebogen.For nylig udkom Amnesty International med en rapport, der viser, at der stadig er massive problemer for migrantarbejderne i ørkenstaten. Og det på trods af løfter fra både Qatar og FIFA om at forbedre forholdene.Er alle løfterne løbet ud i sandet?

Heute vor einem Jahr war Anstoß bei der FIFA-Weltmeisterschaft der Männer in Katar. Was ist von den damals versprochenen Verbesserungen für die Menschen im Land noch übrig? Nicht viel, zeigt ein neuer Bericht von Amnesty International. "Viele der Versprechen wurden gar nicht erst erfüllt. Und Gesetze, die zu Verbesserungen führen sollten, greifen nicht richtig und Verstöße dagegen werden nicht geahndet", erklärt Ellen Wesemüller von Amnesty International Deutschland. Es gebe weiterhin Lohndiebstahl und auch der Jobwechsel sei immer noch schwierig. "Die FIFA und Katar sagen: wäre die WM nicht ins Land gekommen, hätte es viele Verbesserungen gar nicht erst gegeben. Aber das ist ein Mythos. Es wurde nämlich von beiden viel dafür getan, dass es nicht zu Verbesserungen kommen musste – erst der Druck der Öffentlichkeit hat das geändert", so Wesemüller. Warum es trotzdem einen kleinen Lichtblick für die Menschen in Katar gibt, erklärt Wesemüller im Gespräch mit SWR Aktuell-Moderator Moritz Braun.

Więźniowie polityczni, aktywiści klimatyczni, niesłusznie skazani - w tym roku podczas maratonu pisania listów organizowanego przez Amnesty International może wstawić się za 12 osobami z całego świata. Co może niepokoić, na liście są też polskie nazwiska. To Andrzej Poczobut, więzień polityczny białoruskiego reżimu a także aktywistka Justyna Wydrzyńska, skazana na 8 miesięcy więzienia za pomoc w dostępie do bezpiecznej aborcji. Listy pisane przez uczestników maratonu trafiają do władz krajów łamiących prawa człowieka: sądów, prezydentów czy prokuratorów. Okazuje się, że w praktyce nie ma władzy której nie można w ten sposób przekonać do zmiany decyzji, a na koncie Amnesty International jest wiele sukcesów i uwolnionych ludzi. Prócz tego - tysiące listów (w zeszłym roku aż pół miliona na całym świecie!) są ogromnym pokrzepieniem dla osób które czekają na sprawiedliwość. O tegorocznej akcji opowiedziała w Drogowskazach Anna Błaszczak- Banasiak, szefowa Amnesty International Polska. Do wysłuchania rozmowy zaprasza Aleksandra Galant.

Cambodia's government is under renewed pressure to stop the removal of around 10,000 families living near the temple of Angkor Wat. Since 2022, authorities have been ordering people to leave the UNESCO World Heritage-listed site, and a new report by Amnesty International describes the relocations as forced evictions that break international law. UNESCO has now joined the call for the Cambodian government to stop the program.

In the episode, your Sir Auntie Sharmane Fury is having a tough health week and only recorded a brief update on health and plans for upcoming episodes.

It's a universal truth that people love to feel special. We all want to feel like we're an indispensable part of something. It's also true that each and every one of us has limitations on our time, money, and attention.So with these realities coexisting, how can nonprofits interact with supporters on a personal level while not draining them of resources? Katelyn Baughan, nonprofit email marketing expert and consultant to Trevor Project, UNHCR, and Amnesty International, has more than a few tactics to share with Nonstop Nonprofit listeners.As nonprofit fundraisers, you and I are used to feeling pressure to perform. It's not uncommon for us to be told that without donations—literally our job, btw—our world will be a darker, sharper place. Katelyn's antidote emphasizes speaking up during quieter moments, making magic happen in the harsh light of a screen, and elevating everyone's experience through innovation.So whether you're in the thick of your busiest time of year or you're a year-in-advance planner, Katelyn's advice in this episode will help you use email to scale impact, retain donors, and align your communications—all while reminding you that you, too, are essential to our brighter tomorrow.

En wat heeft de Amerikaanse geheime dienst te maken met de bekende supermarkten van Esselunga in Italië?  (00:43) In hoeverre is Nederland medeverantwoordelijk voor schendingen oorlogsrecht in Gaza? "Er worden bommen op Gaza afgeworpen met Nederlandse steun", stellen de organisaties Amnesty International, PAX, Oxfam en The Rights Forum. Ze spanden gezamenlijk een kort geding aan tegen de Nederlandse staat, vanwege de levering van onderdelen voor Israëlische F-35 gevechtsvliegtuigen. En dat zou Nederland medeplichtig maken aan schendingen van het oorlogsrecht, stellen zij. Maar in hoeverre is zoiets ook echt in strijd met het recht of met verdragen rondom wapenhandel?

Angkor Wat is a sprawling historical religious site in Cambodia that draws in millions of international tourists each year. But in a new report, Amnesty International accused the Cambodian government of using the protection of the UNESCO world heritage site as a pretext for the forced displacement of some 10,000 families. We speak to Montse Ferrer, the deputy Regional Director of Research for East and Southeast Asia at Amnesty International, to better understand the situation.                                                          

“Decriminalization is the most supported solution by sex workers themselves.[14] The decriminalization of sex work is the only legal solution that offers no criminalization of any party involved in the sex work industry and additionally has no restrictions on who can legally participate in sex work. The decriminalization of sex work would not remove any legal penalties condemning human trafficking. There is no reliable evidence to suggest that decriminalization of sex work would encourage human trafficking.[4] New Zealand was the first country to decriminalize sex work in 2003, with the passage of the Prostitution Reform Act.[15] This is the most advocated for by sex workers because it allows them the most negotiating power with their clients. With full protection under the law, they have the ability to determine their wages, method of protection, and protect themselves from violent offenders. Sex work is one of the oldest professions in existence and even though sex work is criminalized in most places in order to regulate it, the profession has hardly changed at all over time. Those who work in sex trade are more likely to be exploited, trafficked, and victims of assault when sex work is criminalized.[16] Starting in August 2015, Amnesty International, a global movement free of political, religious, or economic interests to protect people from abuse, introduced a policy that requested that all countries decriminalized sex work.[17][18] Amnesty International stated in this policy that decriminalizing sex work would decrease human trafficking through promotion of the health and safety of sex workers by allowing them to be autonomous with protection of the government.[18] This policy gained a large amount of support worldwide from the WHO, UNAIDS, GAATW, and several others, but has not been adopted universally yet.[19][20][21][4][13][22]” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Dave Swift may not be a household name but he's shared the stage with legendary musicians such as Paul McCartney, Robert Plant, Cher, Joss Stone, Eric Clapton, Roger Daughtry, Paul Simon ... and those are just a few.  He's been a member of Jools Holland's Rhythm and Blues Orchestra since 1991 and also a with the house band on Later with Jools Holland (one of the top tv shows in the UK) He's been called by Bass Guitar magazine as  "one of UK's top bassists" We had a great conversation with Dave and probably one of our longest interviews.  We covered a lot of ground from Dave's early beginnings learning his first instrument (not the bass) to auditioning for Jools Holland and recently recording with Rod Stewart for his upcoming album.  There's a lot in between and some great stories from Dave about some legendary musicians he's worked with.  Like the time they needed a guitar player to fill in (for the house guitarist) when Smokey Robinson was set to do a live show... you won't beleive who they got to fill in.   We thank Dave for taking the time out of his busy schedule to talk to us.  He's currently on tour and also in rehearsals for the tv show so he's got a lot going on.  Dave was such a pleasure to talk to and you'll hear it in his voice how serious he is about what he does and the love for his art of making music. At the end of the interview we did ask some "non-music" questions and when we got into food you would not believe it but we ended up talking about cheeses (like our last interview).. this may be a new thing .. or not ..  ************ A little about Dave Swift: Since joining Jools Holland and His Rhythm and Blues Orchestra in 1991, Dave Swift has established himself as one of the UK's finest, high-profile bass players. In his career, which expands beyond three decades, Dave boasts a musician's portfolio that seconds no other. Dave Swift has played for an array of renowned artists, from George Benson, Chaka Khan, Eric Clapton to Amy Winehouse, Adele and Paul Simon.   Over the years he has performed at many prestigious events, such as the North Sea Jazz Festival, Dubai International Jazz Festival, Blue Note Tokyo, Amnesty International, the Montreux Jazz Festival, Glastonbury Music Festival, and a G8 Conference for world leaders, which included former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, and President Bill Clinton. Additional performances include the Millennium Night celebration at the Millennium Dome for Her Majesty the Queen and a sell-out concert at the Sydney Opera House during their 2008 tour of Australia and New Zealand. Dave Swift is currently on a UK tour with the Jools Holland Band throughout this month and December.  Joss Stone will join them on some dates along with Rod Stewart (who will show up for some shows as a surprise guest)   *********** You can find Dave on Instagram and be sure to check out his website at : daveswiftbass.com KNOW GOOD MUSIC can be found on Podbean (host site), Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Iheart Radio, Pandora and almost anywhere you listen to podcasts.     If you go to www.linktr.ee/knowgoodmusic you can find all the links to the podcast platforms we are on.     Visit our YouTube Channel where you can see 2 video segments from some of our interviews.  Just search "know good music".  

Le Tchad n'a pas aimé la façon dont le Mali a organisé l'évacuation de ses soldats de la base de Kidal. Le ministre tchadien des Affaires étrangères, Mahamat Saleh Annadif, le dit franchement sur RFI. Il déplore que ses compatriotes aient été obligés de prendre la route entre Kidal et Gao, au risque de sauter sur des mines. Mahamat Saleh Annadif le dit depuis Riyad, où se tient ce vendredi un sommet de chefs d'État entre l'Arabie saoudite et plusieurs pays africains. RFI : Monsieur le ministre, vous êtes à Ryad pour un sommet entre l'Arabie saoudite et les pays africains. Quelle est l'urgence au vu du conflit sanglant entre le Hamas et Israël ?Mahamat Saleh Annadif : Notre pays a appelé à un cessez-le-feu et nous avons même rappelé notre chargé d'affaires là-bas. Et on compte vraiment sur un cessez-le-feu rapide pour plutôt se pencher sur le fond de la question : la création de deux États, côte à côte, c'est ça le fond du problème.La semaine dernière en effet, vous avez rappelé votre chargé d'affaires en Israël. Est-ce qu'on va vers une rupture des relations diplomatiques entre le Tchad et l'État hébreu ? Nous n'avons pas dit cela. Nous avons simplement rappelé notre chargé d'affaires pour des consultations.Au terme d'un accord conclu à Kinshasa, l'opposant Succès Masra est rentré à Ndjamena après un an d'exil forcé. Est-ce qu'on va vers une fin de transition apaisée ou pas ?En tout cas, nous l'espérons parce que nous estimons que l'accord qui a eu lieu est un bon pas dans le sens de l'apaisement. Et nous espérons tout simplement que les uns et les autres respecteront leurs engagements. Le gouvernement a commencé déjà à respecter ses engagements, notamment l'amnistie qui vient d'être décidée en Conseil des ministres ce mercredi.Alors cette loi d'amnistie, de nombreuses organisations comme Amnesty International s'inquiètent parce que les violences du 20 octobre 2022 ont fait plusieurs centaines de morts. Et ces organisations dénoncent le fait que les violences commises par les militaires, si elles ne sont pas jugées, si elles ne sont pas condamnées, vont renforcer la culture de l'impunité dans votre pays…Les événements du 20 octobre font partie de l'histoire du Tchad. Nous les avons tous regrettés, dénoncés. Ce sont quand même des Tchadiens qui sont morts. Mais je voudrais tout simplement dire aux uns et aux autres que les violences au Tchad n'ont pas seulement commencé depuis le 20 octobre 2022. Durant notre cheminement, nous avons connu beaucoup de violences, et toute amnistie qui tend à réconcilier les Tchadiens est à saluer.Au Nord-Mali, la Minusma n'a pas obtenu toutes les autorisations de vol demandées pour évacuer et sécuriser le retrait de vos casques bleus tchadiens. Plusieurs de vos compatriotes ont été grièvement blessés par des explosifs. Quelle est votre réaction ?Le Tchad a envoyé depuis 2013 un contingent au niveau du Mali. Évidemment, nous aurions aimé une séparation entre la Minusma et le gouvernement malien dans des conditions plus apaisées. Malheureusement, les choses ne se sont pas passées comme elles doivent se faire. Le cas du contingent tchadien, c'est vrai qu'il y a eu des pertes. Vous savez que, depuis le déploiement de la Minusma en 2015, les Tchadiens qui sont morts constituent un tiers de tous les décès que la Minusma a connus. Donc, le Tchad a déjà perdu beaucoup, mais nous estimons que c'est pour la bonne cause, c'est pour aider à ce qu'il y ait la paix au niveau du Mali. Maintenant, nous nous sommes retirés, peut-être pas dans des conditions idéales. Les troupes sur leur parcours ont eu quelques incidents. Il y a eu des blessés, c'est vrai. On a évacué des gens sur Ndjamena. Mais de façon globale, j'aurais aimé, j'aurais souhaité en tout cas, une séparation entre les Nations unies et le gouvernement malien dans des conditions plus amicales.Est-ce que vos amis maliens ne sont pas un petit peu ingrats à l'égard des Tchadiens après tous les sacrifices que ceux-ci ont consentis pour le Mali ?Ce sont des mots que je n'emploie pas. Je souhaite la paix surtout au Mali.En tout cas, cette séparation ne se passe pas, comme vous dites, de façon très amicale…Ça, c'est clair. J'aurais aimé que cette séparation soit plus amicale que cela.Les relations entre Ndjamena et Bamako étaient fondées sur la confiance. Est-ce qu'elles vont pouvoir rester confiantes ?Le Mali traverse une phase difficile. Souhaitons seulement qu'il sorte de cette phase difficile. Les relations entre les États peuvent connaître des moments de difficulté, mais dans tous les cas, nous demeurons des pays amis avec le Mali.Et que pensez-vous de cette tentative de reconquête militaire des ex-bases Minusma du Nord-Mali par les Forces armées maliennes avec leurs supplétifs russes de Wagner ?Je souhaite que la sagesse l'emporte et que cette guerre-là puisse s'arrêter, et qu'on revienne plutôt à la table des négociations, et qu'on revienne surtout à l'accord pour la paix que personne pour le moment n'a dénoncé.À lire aussiGabon: Brice Oligui Nguema à Riyad pour le premier sommet Arabie saoudite-Afrique

The security situation in Ethiopia's Amhara region has been concerning for a while now with the authorities in Addis Ababa trying to contain it. However, the latest escalation in violence between government forces and groups opposed to a disarmament plan is leading to a humanitarian crisis, amid fears that the conflict could spread. Also we look at a new report from Amnesty International, which accuses TikTok of directing content to children to the detriment of their mental health. TikTok denies the allegation. And did you know giraffes are even more at risk of extinction than elephants?

Tusentals civila rapporteras döda samtidigt som striderna i Gaza blir alltmer intensiva. Israels mål är att utradera Hamas och man hävdar att bombningarna är proportionerliga.

Krigen i Gaza er ved at nå sit klimaks, lyder det fra regeringen i Israel. Samtidig fortæller flere humanitære organisationer, at de ikke tidligere har set en humanitær krise udvikle sig så hurtigt og så brutalt. Og de opfordrer parterne til en øjeblikkelig våbenhvile. Skal Danmark melde sig på banen og opfordre Israel til at holde en pause med krigsførelsen? Og er proportionaliteten intakt i Israels modangreb i Gazastriben?

In today's episode, we're diving headfirst into the geopolitical labyrinth of China's role in the Israel/Palestine conflict with William Nee, the research and advocacy coordinator for the Network of Chinese Human Rights Defenders.  As China positions itself as a neutral peacemaker while aligning with Palestine and Arab States, we explore the implications of this stance. We'll dissect China's media narratives that blame the U.S. for hostilities in the Middle East and contrast this with China's own human rights record, particularly concerning the Uyghurs in Xinjiang.In our second segment, we'll delve deeper into China's global ambitions. We'll discuss their new global initiatives like the GSI, GDI, GCI, and BRI, and what these mean for the international order. We'll also touch on the psychological mechanisms that make people susceptible to narratives that may not align with reality. How does public sentiment develop, and how do governments and media play into this? We'll explore these questions and more, providing you with a nuanced understanding of the situation.China Resources Mentioned by William NeeGreat podcast on Chinese issues, Sinica: https://thechinaproject.com/podcasts/The best China-focused newsletter, Sinocism (requires subscription): https://sinocism.comThe China-Global South Project's X feed: @ChinaGSProjectThe Network of Chinese Human Rights Defenders X feed: @CHRDnetUyghur region:Human Rights Watch report:  “Break Their Lineage, Break Their Roots”: China's Crimes against Humanity Targeting Uyghurs and Other Turkic Muslims, William Nee recent op-ed:A UN Body Sheds Light on the Fate of Disappeared Uyghurs: The Working Group on Arbitrary Detention has provided more evidence of China's use of enforced disappearances in Xinjiang.OHCHR Assessment of human rights concerns in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, People's Republic of ChinaGuest Bio:William Nee is the Research and Advocacy Coordinator at Chinese Human Rights Defenders (CHRD), where he carries out research regarding a wide array of human rights concerns impacting human rights defenders in China.

In 1982, Mumia Abu-Jamal was sentenced to death for the murder of a Philadelphia police officer. An ex-Black Panther, he had no prior criminal record. Amnesty International investigated his case and found in many ways that it "failed to meet minimum international standards.” He's been incarcerated for more than 40 years.Over those decades, Abu-Jamal has become a leader of the anti-death penalty movement and an influential critic of mass incarceration. He's written multiple books, and appeared on countless radio programs and documentaries — all while serving what is now a life sentence. This fall, scholars and activists met at Brown to mark a new chapter in Abu-Jamal's story. The John Hay Library at Brown University, in partnership with Brown's Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women, and the Simmons Center for the Study of Slavery and Justice, acquired Abu-Jamal's writings — 97 boxes — and opened them to the public. On this episode: Dan Richards talks with two Brown archivists about this new collection, and what it's like preserving the work of one of the most famous incarcerated people in America. Dan also speaks with a scholar at Brown who is working to collect the histories of incarcerated people about the importance of filling this gap in our nation's historical record.

In this episode, we talk to Dr. Matt Mahmoudi, a researcher and advisor on artificial intelligence and human rights at Amnesty International, and an affiliated lecturer at the Department of Sociology at the University of Cambridge. We discuss how AI is being used to survey Palestinians in Hebron and East Jerusalem, both in their bedrooms and in their streets, which Dutch and Chinese companies are supporting this surveillance, and how Israeli security forces have been pivotal to the training of US police. We also think about creative resistance projects like plastering stickers on cameras to notify passes by that they're being watched.

Nhiều nhà báo và chính trị gia tại châu Âu đã bị do thám thông qua một tài khoản Twitter (@Joseph_Gordon16) có liên hệ chặt chẽ với Việt Nam và được cho là hoạt động cho chính quyền Việt Nam, hoặc một số nhóm lợi ích Việt Nam. Phát hiện này được tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế ( Amnesty International ) cùng với nhiều cơ quan truyền thông châu Âu thuộc tổ hợp Hợp tác Điều tra châu Âu (European Investigative Collaborations, EIC) đồng loạt công bố ngày 09/10/2023 trong khuôn khổ vụ « Predator Files ». Trong thông cáo ngày 09/10, Ân Xá Quốc Tế nhấn mạnh đến sai sót về quản lý bán phầm mềm do thám (1). Liên minh các doanh nghiệp phát triển và bán phần mềm do thám Predator khẳng định là có trụ sở ở Liên Hiệp Châu Âu. Các nhà báo, chính trị gia bị nhắm đến cũng ở trong khối 27 nước, trong khi mỗi nước thành viên Liên Âu phải chịu trách nhiệm kiểm tra việc bán và chuyển giao công nghệ theo dõi.Trường hợp của Việt Nam được nhiều báo đồng loạt đưa tin ngày 09/10 (2). Nhà báo điều tra Yann Philippin của báo mạng độc lập Pháp Mediapart tham gia cuộc điều tra của EIC, song song với tổ chức Amnesty International, là tác giả bài báo « Predator Files » : des élus français, européens et américains visés par le logiciel espion (Vụ « Predator Files » : Nhiều dân biểu Pháp, châu Âu và Mỹ bị phần mềm gián điệp nhắm đến). Theo đó, « Việt Nam đã sử dụng phần mềm gián điệp Predator, do tập đoàn Nexa bán, để thực hiện âm mưu do thám thông qua mạng Twitter (hiện là mạng X). Dân biểu châu Âu Pierre Karleskind của Pháp bị nhắm đến, cũng như đài truyền hình France 24, nữ chủ tịch Nghị Viện Châu Âu, nhiều dân biểu Mỹ, nhà báo và nhà ngoại giao ». Nhà báo Yann Philippin dành cho RFI Tiếng Việt buổi phỏng vấn ngày 11/10/2023.RFI : Ông tham gia điều tra về vụ « Predator Files » do tổ hợp Hợp tác Điều tra châu Âu - EIC điều phối cùng với tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế. Xin ông giải thích mục đích của cuộc điều tra này ! Nhà báo Yann Philippin : Cuộc điều tra tiết lộ lần đầu tiên từ bên trong những phương pháp của một liên minh doanh nghiệp thiết kế và bán các hệ thống giám sát thâm nhập, trong đó có Predator, một phần mềm gián điệp giúp đánh cắp được hết dữ liệu của điện thoại bị xâm nhập (hack) và sử dụng điện thoại đó làm công cụ gián điệp, vì Predator có khả năng kích hoạt từ xa micro, máy ảnh, máy quay phim và như vậy có thể ghi hình mọi người hoặc thu âm những gì họ nói mà không hay biết.  Cuộc điều tra « Predator Files » đã tiết lộ cách làm của hai công ty Intellexa và Nexa. Intellexa là công ty thiết kế phần mềm gián điệp Predator, còn Nexa là một công ty Pháp, từng liên kết với Intellexa và giúp Intellexa bán phần mềm này ra nước ngoài, trong đó có Việt Nam.  RFI : Dựa vào những dấu hiệu nào mà nhóm điều tra kết luận rằng có khả năng Việt Nam có liên quan đến các chiến dịch thâm nhập, do thám ?  Yann Philippin : Cuộc điều tra của chúng tôi mang lại nhiều bằng chứng vững chắc. Chúng tôi phối hợp với Security Lab của tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế. Cuộc điều tra được tiến hành trên hai phương diện : kỹ thuật và kinh tế. Tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế tiến hành điều tra về mặt kỹ thuật. Họ đã phân tích các máy chủ, có nghĩa là các máy tính chứa các trang web nhằm truy cập, hack điện thoại. Những máy chủ này được đặt ở nhiều nơi do công ty Intellaxa quản lý cho nhiều khách hàng, trong đó có Việt Nam. Predator hoạt động như sau : Người ta gửi một đường link, thường là bắt chước một bài báo nào đó, người xem thấy quan tâm, nhấn vào đó và sẽ bị đưa đến máy chủ chứa trang web giả và máy chủ sẽ gửi phần mềm gián điệp vào điện thoại của người đó để thâm nhập.  Tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế điều tra rất tỉ mỉ về cơ sở kỹ thuật thâm nhập điện thoại với phần mềm Predator này. Họ xác định được rằng một phần cơ sở hạ tầng kỹ thuật này có liên quan đến Việt Nam, một mặt nhờ vào hoạt động tin học của những máy chủ đó, mặt khác là do các đối tượng bị nhắm đến có liên quan đến Việt Nam, ví dụ các nhà đối lập Việt Nam. Song song đó là cuộc điều tra kỹ thuật, với độ chắc chắn cao, cho thấy những máy chủ gửi virus độc đó là dành cho Việt Nam. Báo mạng Mediapart và tổ hợp Hợp tác Điều tra châu Âu - EIC của chúng tôi đã nhận được nhiều tài liệu mật chứng minh rằng công ty Pháp Nexa bán phần mềm Predator cho chính phủ Việt Nam, cụ thể là cho bộ Công An. RFI : Theo các tài liệu đó, thỏa thuận mua bán được đúc kết vào thời điểm nào ? Yann Philippin : Thỏa thuận mua bán này được ký chính xác ngày 31/12/2020. Sau đó còn phải cần thời gian vận chuyển, lắp đặt thiết bị, rất có thể Predator bắt đầu hoạt động cho chính quyền Việt Nam vào khoảng cuối năm 2021.  RFI : Theo báo cáo của tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế và bài báo của nhiều cơ quan truyền thông châu Âu tham gia điều tra, nhiều chính trị gia châu Âu, Mỹ, Đài Loan và một số nhà đối lập Việt Nam dường như bị nhắm tới ! Yann Philippin : Cuộc tấn công được tổ chức Ân Xá Quốc Tế, cũng như nhiều tổ chức khác như Citizen Lab hay Google, quy cho Việt Nam. Cách tấn công cũng rất thú vị vì sử dụng mạng Twitter, nay là mạng X. Thông thường, những vụ tin tặc kiểu này thường nhắm đến một cá nhân cụ thể, như gửi tin nhắn chứa mã độc, hoặc gửi tin qua WhatsApp. Thế nhưng họ lại để công khai trên Twitter khi sử dụng tài khoản giả mang tên @Joseph_Gordon16 trả lời tin nhắn Twitter của đối tượng bị nhắm đến. Nếu truy cập bằng điện thoại và nhấn vào đường link đó thì điện thoại bị nhiễm mã độc và bị truy cập. Chính nhờ vậy mà chiến dịch đã bị phát hiện bởi vì cách làm không được kín đáo cho lắm, do họ sử dụng Twitter, mà các tin nhắn trên Twitter đều công khai. RFI :Thành phần bị nhắm đến là những ai và nhằm mục đích gì ? Yann Philippin : Chúng tôi đã xác định được ba kiểu đối tượng bị nhắm đến. Thứ nhất là một số nhà đối lập với chế độ Việt Nam như Lê Trung Khoa, sống ở Đức, rất nổi tiếng và phụ trách trang thông tin Thời báo được người Việt sống ở trong và ngoài nước biết nhiều. Việt Nam định hack điện thoại của ông qua chiến dịch này. Ngoài ra, còn có nhiều tổ chức, nhà báo Việt Nam hoặc một số tổ chức chính trị ở nước ngoài cũng bị chiến dịch này nhắm đến. Đối tượng thứ hai là Liên Hiệp Châu Âu với 12 cơ quan và cá nhân bị nhắm đến, trong số đó có nhiều chính trị gia cấp cao, Ủy Ban Châu Âu, nữ chủ tịch Nghị Viện Châu Âu và ông Pierre Karleskind, chủ tịch Ủy ban đánh bắt (PECH) của Nghị Viện Châu Âu.  Sau cuộc điều tra, chúng tôi suy luận rằng có lẽ Việt Nam lo lắng vì Liên Hiệp Châu Âu đã phạt « thẻ vàng » về tình trạng đánh bắt bất hợp pháp của Việt Nam, vì Bruxelles cho rằng Việt Nam chưa cố gắng đủ để chống tình trạng đó. Hiện giờ chưa có hậu quả, nhưng nếu vấn đề không được giải quyết thì « thẻ vàng » có thể sẽ thành « thẻ đỏ », đồng nghĩa với việc cấm xuất khẩu hải sản sang thị trường Liên Âu. Đó sẽ là một rủi ro lớn cho Việt Nam. Mọi người đều biết rằng đánh bắt là một nguồn thu nhập lớn cho nền kinh tế Việt Nam. Vì thế có thể là Việt Nam muốn do thám một số chính trị gia và các cơ quan Liên Hiệp Châu Âu phụ trách đánh bắt để nắm bắt tình hình và xem liệu các biện pháp trừng phạt hoặc cảnh cáo có tiếp tục hay không và liệu có cách nào để hủy « thẻ vàng » đó.  Đối tượng cuối cùng trong đợt do thám mà chúng tôi xác định được có liên quan đến Biển Đông. Chúng ta biết đó là một khu vực phức tạp, đầy căng thẳng, nhất là liên quan đến chủ quyền đối với nhiều hòn đảo trong vùng, giữa Việt Nam, Trung Quốc, Đài Loan và Philippines. Đợt tấn công nhắm đồng thời vào nhiều chính trị gia, cũng như chuyên gia, nhà báo liên quan đến địa-chính trị hoặc Biển Đông. Mục tiêu quan trọng nhất là tổng thống Đài Loan Thái Anh Văn. Nhiều dân biểu, thượng nghị sĩ Mỹ cũng bị nhắm đến trong cuộc tấn công nhắm vào chính quyền Đài Loan. RFI : Các « nạn nhân » phản ứng như thế nào về kết quả điều tra của tổ hợp Hợp tác Điều tra châu Âu - EIC và Ân Xá Quốc Tế ?  Yann Philippin : Chúng tôi nhận được phản ứng của một vài nạn nhân. Chuyện khá phức tạp vì phần lớn các chính trị gia không muốn bình luận, phần nào vì lý do an ninh. Phản ứng mạnh nhất là của nhà phụ trách trang Thời báo ở Đức. Ông ấy kinh sợ vì bị nhắm đến. May là ông ấy không nhấn vào đường dẫn. Ông ấy giải thích với chúng tôi là nhiều người hợp tác với trang Thời báo đã phải lấy bút danh để không bị nhắm đến, vì nếu danh tính thật bị lộ và chính phủ Việt Nam biết thì có thể họ sẽ gặp nhiều hậu quả kinh khủng. Ông ấy lo ngại và thấy bất thường khi Liên Hiệp Châu Âu đã không ngăn được việc bán phần mềm gián điệp Predator cho Việt Nam, một Nhà nước chuyên quyền, một quốc gia không có dân chủ.  Ngoài ra, chúng tôi cũng nhận được phản hồi mạnh của dân biểu châu Âu Pierre Karleskind, thuộc đảng của tổng thống Pháp, rằng vụ tấn công tin tặc mà ông ấy là nạn nhân là điều hoàn toàn bất thường. Ông đã cho kiểm tra điện thoại thì thấy là điện thoại không bị nhiễm độc. Theo ông, dù vụ tấn công bất thành nhưng vẫn là chuyện đáng xấu hổ. Ông cho biết là có ý định triệu mời đại sứ Việt Nam bên cạnh Liên Hiệp Châu Âu lên để đề nghị giải thích.  RFI : Chiến dịch tấn công và phần mềm Predator còn hoạt động không ? Yann Philippin : Không thể biết được là phần mềm đó còn hoạt động hay không. Thường thì trong mọi cuộc điều tra báo chí, người ta vẫn gửi câu hỏi cho những người có liên quan trong các bài báo trước khi công bố. Chúng tôi đã gửi câu hỏi đến chính phủ Việt Nam, nhưng họ không hồi âm. Chúng tôi cũng gửi câu hỏi tới  Intellexa, tức là công ty khai thác phần mềm Predator, nhưng cũng không nhận được câu trả lời.  Tuy nhiên, chúng tôi có câu trả lời, có thể nói là  « gián tiếp », đó là chúng tôi phát hiện ra rằng phần lớn các máy chủ được dùng để phát tán virus thông qua phần mềm Predator bỗng dưng bị đóng hết, ngay sau khi chúng tôi gửi câu hỏi đến. Có thể là do bị phát hiện nên họ lo ngại và đóng các máy chủ đó. Có thể là họ tạm ngừng hoạt động, nhưng cũng có thể là họ lắp đặt các máy mới, cơ sở mới và sẽ tiếp tục trong tương lai. Còn chiến địch mà chúng tôi phát hiện thì đã chấm dứt, bởi vì tài khoản Twitter @Joseph_Gordon16 không còn tồn tại, tất cả đã bị xóa. Nhưng trong tương lai, hoàn toàn có thể có những vụ tấn công khác, bằng các phương tiện khác và có thể kín đáo hơn.  RFI Tiếng Việt xin chân thành cảm ơn nhà báo điều tra Yann Philippin, báo mạng Pháp Mediapart. (1) Theo báo cáo của Amnesty International, « […] Từ tháng 02 đến tháng 06/2023, ít nhất 50 tài khoản thuộc 27 cá nhân và 23 định chế bị công khai nhắm đến trên các nền tảng mạng xã hội X (trước là Twitter) và Facebook.

Part 1 Interview with Katya Curran and Hilary Unwin from Te Kāhui Tika Tangata – New Zealand Human Rights Commission about their mahi with the Commission.

“The decriminalization of sex work is the removal of criminal penalties for sex work (specifically, prostitution).[2] Sex work, the consensual provision of sexual services for money or goods,[3] is criminalized in most countries.[4] Decriminalization is distinct from legalization[5] (also known as the "regulationist" approach).[6] Advocates of decriminalization argue that removing the criminal sanctions surrounding sex work creates a safer environment for sex workers,[7] and that it helps fight sex trafficking.[8] Opponents of decriminalization argue that it will not prevent trafficking (or even increase trafficking[9]) and could put sex workers at greater risk.[10] Evidence demonstrates that decriminalization is an evidence-based harm reduction approach[11] Organizations including: the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), the World Health Organization (WHO), Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and the medical journal The Lancet have called on countries to decriminalize sex work in the global effort to tackle the HIV/AIDS epidemic and ensure sex workers' access to health services.[12][13][14][15] Almost all organisations run by sex workers themselves around the world favour the decriminalisation of sex work, and it tends to be their main goal.[16][17][18][5][19] However, a European Parliament resolution adopted on 26 February 2014, regarding sexual exploitation and prostitution and its impact on gender equality states that, "decriminalising the sex industry in general and making procuring legal is not a solution to keeping vulnerable women and under-age females safe from violence and exploitation, but has the opposite effect and puts them in danger of a higher level of violence, while at the same time encouraging prostitution markets – and thus the number of women and under-age females suffering abuse – to grow."[10] Two countries have decriminalized sex work. In June 2003, New Zealand became the first country to decriminalize sex work, with the passage of the Prostitution Reform Act.[20] The one remaining criminal law surrounding commercial sexual activities in New Zealand is a requirement to adopt safer sex practices.[21] Despite decriminalisation, its sex industry is still controversial, with some issues remaining.[22] In June 2022, Belgium became the first country in Europe and the second country in the world to decriminalize sex work.[23][24] Decriminalization is the removal of criminal penalties for sex work. In countries that decriminalize sex work, sex workers receive the same protection and recognition as workers in other industries.[2] The very first line of the World Charter for Prostitutes' Rights, written and adopted by the International Committee for Prostitutes' Rights on 15 February 1985 at the first World Whores Congress in Amsterdam, states: "Decriminalize all aspects of adult prostitution resulting from individual decision."[31]” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

After the Taliban returned to power in Afghanistan two years ago, 16 hundred displaced people found refuge in New Zealand. But their experiences of resettling here were less than ideal, according to a new report by World Vision, Amnesty International , and ActionStation. The report finds many of the Afghan nationals spent months in hotel rooms, and struggled to access mental health support, employment and education. The agencies want the government to introduce a standard level of support for displaced people seeking refuge in Aotearoa New Zealand whether they arrive here as refugees, asylum seekers, or on special humanitarian visas.
