Este jueves se cumplieron dos siglos de la independencia de Haití, fecha en la que el rey de Francia Carlos X le impuso una deuda millonaria como compensación. Una deuda que este país, el más pobre de América Latina, ha lastrado hasta hoy en día. Fue hace 200 años, en 1825, cuando el rey Carlos X de Francia impuso a Haití un precio a cambio de reconocer su independencia, lograda años antes tras una revuelta de esclavos. La antigua colonia contrajo una deuda de 150 millones de francos y tuvo que afrontar así una deuda que aún hoy pesa.El presidente francés Emmmanuel Macron reconoció que esto fue injusto y anunció la creación de una comisión para analizar el impacto de esta deuda en el país. Eddy Lucien, profesor de historia y miembro del colectivo contra la deuda de 1825 dice en declaraciones al periodista de RFI Peterson Luxama que es una justicia histórica que hay que reparar."Reclamamos la condonación de la deuda porque hemos sido tomados como rehenes, exigimos que se nos libere para evitar que otras generaciones en Haití o fuera, sigan siendo rehenes de una gran potencia. Es hora de poner fin sentando un precedente, pero ¿estará Francia preparada?”.Haití es el país más pobre de América Latina y es políticamente inestable. El país vive constantemente la violencia de las bandas de pandilleros, que toman el control de amplias zonas y son responsables de secuestros y asesinatos. Los desplazamientos como consecuencia de la violencia y la falta de acceso a ayuda humanitaria amenazan a la población y aumentan el riesgo de hambruna.Amy Pope, Organización Internacional para las Migraciones (OIM), explica lo extrema que es la situación en la que vive el país. "La situación ha empeorado mucho, mucho en los últimos meses. hay un millón de personas que han sido desplazadas. Tuve la oportunidad de ver algunos de los sitios para las personas desplazadas en la capital. Y ver a miles de personas que están apiladas una encima de la otra en espacios muy, muy reducidos".Además, indicó que "la inseguridad alimentaria es muy alta, muchas personas han sido desplazadas varias veces a medida que la violencia de las pandillas se está moviendo por la ciudad y cada vez más personas son expulsadas porque no es seguro".La violencia se ha extendido en las últimas semanas y en medio de la crisis, casi 200.000 haitianos han sido desplazados. Pope señala que “el apoyo de seguridad multinacional para Haití aún no está al límite de su capacidad. Hay unos mil representantes de seguridad, pero la promesa original era de 2.500. Este es un país donde hay más de medio millón de armas, según las estimaciones, por lo que hay una pregunta real de si hay medios suficientes”.Según la ONU, durante el primer trimestre de este año al menos 1.518 personas murieron y 572 resultaron heridas en Haití.

It's been five years since cities around the country like Chicago shut down in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, millions of people have been affected. Whether it's coming down with the virus, losing a loved one during the pandemic or living with the consequences of infection, also known as long COVID. To find out more about what we do and do not know about the chronic condition, we turned to Dr. Jerry Krishnan, a professor of medicine and public health at the University of Illinois Chicago, and Amy Pope, and long COVID patient and patient researcher. We also checked in with Mike Bielaczyc, a licensed clinical social worker and long-hauler support group leader at Northwestern University, and Chimére L. Sweeney, a long COVID patient consultant.

Migration is surging worldwide — as is the backlash to it. Perhaps nowhere is this backlash more evident at the moment than in the United States, where newly minted President Donald Trump has said he will deport all of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the country. Amy Pope doesn't think that is practical, or productive. Pope, director-general of the International Organization for Migration, which falls under the United Nations, told Devex that such a mass deportation would have a range of repercussions, assuming it's even feasible. “In the United States where you're talking over 11 million people who've been living and working there, frankly — and I know this because I worked at a time when more than 400,000 people were removed in a year under President Obama — the system cannot bear removing 11 million people. The logistical capacity does not exist,” she told Devex Editor-in-Chief Raj Kumar during a special episode of the This Week in Global Development podcast from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. While the logistical capacity may not exist, the economic toll certainly does, Pope said. “It is clear that American industry has been relying on migrants — high-skilled, low-skilled, irregular, regular — across the board. So if you start to pull out that workforce, if you do not have another workforce ready to go in, you're going to see the impact across the board,” she said, citing industries such as agriculture, construction, manufacturing, and food processing. Moreover, irregular migration strengthens smugglers and traffickers while weakening trust in governments. “It undermines confidence in government. Because if the government cannot manage its border and if there's a perception that everybody can come to the border and cross and you don't have to wait in a line … it undermines public confidence,” she said. Rather, governments need to set up a system where migration is legal and orderly. “If you've been living in a country, if you have been holding a job, paying your taxes, not committing crimes, kids are in school, whatever … you offer people a way to regularize their status,” she said. “Let's give them status — make sure they're paid fairly, make sure that their entry into the workforce is being done in a regular way.” To hear more of Pope's thoughts — including why people migrate and what aid agencies can do in a time of ever-tightening budgets — check out the podcast.

Ce matin, coup d'envoi du festival de Cannes oblige, c'est le Carnaval des animaux de Camille Saint-Saëns qui illustre l'épisode, alors que dans la nature… c'est loin d'être carnaval pour les animaux, notamment pour les oiseaux. Et ce n'est pas Bertrand Belin, qui voudrait être un oiseau en chantant “cui-cui” qui va résoudre le problème. Sinon, l'actu c'est aussi le Soudan, le cyclone Mocha qui a déferlé dans le golfe du Bengale et a fait 29 morts en Birmanie, de nouvelles attaques de drones et de missiles russes sur Kiev… …mais également l'Organisation internationale pour les migrations à Genève qui sera dirigée pour la première fois par une femme, l'Américaine Amy Pope, un nouvel abo Mobilis pour voyager librement en transports publics, le soir, dans le canton de Vaud et les supporters du HC La Chaux-de-Fonds qui auront consommé 370 kilos de raclette et 23'000 litres de bière pendant les play-offs…

US political expert Amy Pope explains the country’s coronavirus relief bill; Monocle’s Fiona Wilson on the 10th anniversary of the Great East Japan Earthquake; the day’s business headlines; and we play the best (and worst) of Uzbekistan’s pop music.
This special edition of ‘The Briefing’ looks ahead to Joe Biden’s inauguration as the 46th US president. Featuring contributions from Suzanne Lynch in Washington, Biden’s former colleague Amy Pope and the highest-ranking woman in Ronald Reagan’s White House, Linda Chavez.
Emma, a pediatric nurse, who has been redeployed to an Intensive Care Unit talks about what it’s like to care for Covid patients and the daily stress and pressure currently experienced by health care professionals. Amy Pope, former deputy home security advisor to President Obama talks about Congresswoman Liz Cheney, one of ten Republicans who crossed the floor and voted with the Democrats to impeach President Trump for the second time. Author Debra Waters and science journalist and author Helen Thomson talk adult crushes. Should we see crushes as normal, exciting and harmless ways of understanding ourselves and our needs? Or is it morally questionable if you’re in a loving, committed relationship? We hear from Anjali Raman-Middleton who went to primary school with Ella Adoo-Kissi-Debrah who was nine years old when she died in 2013. She had a rare and severe form of asthma. Angali co-founded 'Choked Up' with three other teenagers to lobby against the pollution that contributed to Ella's death. Richard Holden, MP for North West Durham, Natasha Rattu, Director of Karma Nirvana and Dr. Naomi Crouch Chair of the British Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology Society and spokesperson for The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists talk about the Virginity Testing (Prohibition) Bill that was introduced in the House of Commons by Richard in December .

Everyone remembers their first teenage crush - that feeling of butterflies in the stomach and uncontrollable blushes. As we age, crushes still occur but they tend to be a guilty secret. But are there benefits to having a crush? Facebook introduced a secret crush feature in December last year and it is claimed that crushes can induce mood-boosting chemicals. Should we see crushes as normal, exciting and harmless ways of understanding ourselves and our needs? Or is it morally questionable if you’re in a loving, committed relationship? Emma is joined by Debra Waters, who won the Bridport Prize last year for her short story "Oh Hululu" about an adult crush, and Helen Thomson is a science journalist and author whose new book is called 'This Book Could Fix Your Life' in which she shares her advice on affairs of the heart. Yesterday, the eyes of America were mainly on one woman. Congresswoman Liz Cheney was one of ten Republicans who crossed the floor and voted with the Democrats to impeach President Trump for the second time, something that has never happened before to a President. A key trigger in all of this was, of course, the storming of the Capitol Building last week. Cheney laid blame firmly at the feet of President Trump and criticised his role in stoking the attack. So who is Liz Cheney and is she the political heroine some are saying she is? Is she trying to save the Republic from doom and destruction at its most desperate hour? Emma talks to Amy Pope, former deputy home security advisor to President Obama An estimated 30,000 migrants and refugees have lost their lives in the Mediterranean in the last fifteen years. One of the largest shipwrecks took place in October 2013 when a boat went down off the Italian island of Lampedusa, killing 366 migrants on board. A second tragedy, with an even larger loss of life, happened in April 2015 when a boat sank carrying 1000 refugees and migrants travelling from Libya to Italy. Cristina Cattaneo, Professor of Forensic Medicine at the University of Milan, has spent the last five years voluntarily running a project with others to identify just some of those who died. The Equality and Human Rights Commission has a new chair. Her name is Kishwer Falkner. The EHRC's most recent and high-profile investigations have been into pay at the BBC and anti-Semitism within the Labour Party. Its twitter tag line says that it’s here to “to stand up for freedom, compassion and justice in our changing times”, but it has its critics too. The Women and Equalities Committee once said it needed to overcome its ‘timidity’, and be ‘bolder’. That was in 2019, so has it?
In this episode, we talk about the various forms of trauma, how it affects us and our brains, and look at a powerful treatment therapy to heal the negative impacts of trauma. Amy Pope-Latham is a licensed clinical social worker with extensive experience in treating children, adolescents, adults, and families. She received an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Stony Brook University and a Master's degree in Social Work from Stony Brook University's School of Medicine and Social Welfare. She offers EMDR, as well as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and largely incorporates Evidence-Based Practices and Somatic and Mindfulness-based Therapy for a variety of presenting symptoms such as grief, anxiety, complex trauma, obsessive and compulsive thinking patterns, and substance use. In this episode, we discuss: · How our minds – like our bodies – are actually set up to heal themselves. · The different approaches to help reconnect our mind and our body and remove the continuous pain from trauma. · How EMDR is a tool to access our limbic system, where we store - and essentially hide – our physical feelings, and revisit and process traumatic experiences in a safe space. · Our drive for connection and how that impacts how we react to trauma. · How important it is to recognize that we are all in process and wherever you are in that process is exactly where you need to be.

In the context of the coronavirus pandemic, however, they have both been badly hit – and criticised for their slow response.

In this episode, I talk to Amy Pope-Latham, LCSW & certified EMDR therapist, about the importance of our mind-body connection and how certain experiences (known as traumas) can cause us to disassociate from our physical feelings. But through different therapy modalities and even practicing mindfulness, we can become more aware of what our body is trying to tell us and give it the time it needs to process through events that our mind didn't allow it to. We discuss: How our bodies are set up to heal themselves and so too are our minds… and once that process starts, it can't be stopped. How there are different approaches to help reconnect our mind and our body and remove the continuous pain from trauma, EMDR being one of them but it's not for everyone. How EMDR is a tool to access our limbic system, where we store – and essentially hide – our physical feelings, and revisit and process traumatic experiences in a safe space. I love the explanation of bottom up vs. top down approaches to therapy and healing and recognizing how tricky our minds can be in getting in the way of our healing. How ultimately, we all want true connection and that's really the intention behind how we react to trauma. So in that lens, there is nothing “wrong” with us. Our present-day issues are really a result of us doing what we had to do to feel safe at the time. How important it is to recognize that we are all in process and wherever you are in that process is exactly where you need to be. I don't know about you, but I'm definitely going to google the transtheoretical process for change. And the best quote of the interview – “the body remembers what our mind tries to forget.” You can find and follow Amy here: Coastalbeachestherapy.com Instagram @coastal_beaches_therapy Please SUBSCRIBE, SHARE, RATE, and REVIEW the podcast!

Hi impact, low probability events are a planners nightmare. You know that you need to think about them, but how can you prioritise which event - terrorist attack, natural disaster, disease outbreak, deserves attention - and how can you sell the risks of that, but not oversell them? Risky business is a conference where some of these kind of things can be discussed - how do we think about risk, how do we plan for it - at this year's conference we heard from one of the men who rescued the boys from a cave in Thailand, the fireman in charge of Grenfell, and the medical teams responding to the three latest terrorist attacks in the UK. In this podcast we talk to Amy Pope, former advisor to the Whitehouse during president Obama's tenure. There she was charged with thinking about these high impact, low probability events.

One hundred years after Spanish Flu killed an estimated 50 to 100 million people worldwide, the risks of a pandemic loom large for the increasingly interconnected global community. In this candid conversation, former deputy homeland security advisor Amy Pope describes how lessons learned from the 2014 Ebola outbreak resulted in a much more effective response to Zika a year later, including better public communications strategies, faster approval of federal funding, and greater outreach to state, local, and private sector leaders. Pope calls for increased attention and dedicated funding streams to help position the federal government –alongside its local, state, and national partners worldwide – to fight the next major outbreak.
Consider this statement: Science knows how to deal with a pandemic outbreak, but policy gets in the way. That was how we framed a recent event at CGD with key people who led the US government's response to the Ebola outbreak in 2014. Drawing from that event, this podcast brings you some ideas of how to improve the global system of response and increase our preparedness for the next inevitable outbreak. Speakers include Jeremy Konyndyk, Amy Pope, David Smith, Rebecca Martin, and Amanda Glassman.
U.S. Senator Bill Nelson from Florida and Amy Pope from the White House discuss how federal, state, and local governments are responding to the Zika outbreak and what the business community can do to help.
