Ireland's inaugural Internet Governance Forum (IGF) took place last week, 22nd May in Dublin. This landmark event was hosted by .ie and organised by a multi-stakeholder team made up of experts that are passionate about internet governance. The event brought together experts from across business, government, education and civil society to work together to shape how the internet is managed in Ireland. The Internet Governance Forum (IGF), formally established by the United Nations in 2006, is a global initiative to promote open policy discussions that shape the future of the internet. Besides the Global IGF, many nations or regions host their own local IGF events to bring together the local internet community and discuss local internet policy issues. Ireland's trusted national domain registry, .ie, believes it is now time for Ireland as a digital nation, home to some of the world's leading tech companies and a strong internet ecosystem, to join the global conversation. This inaugural IGF in the country welcomed a variety of prolific speakers across government, academia, business and industry to engage with current and emerging trends surrounding internet governance and look ahead at Ireland's digital future. The predominant themes underpinning the IGF included regulating online spaces, moving beyond a compliance checklist focus, diversity and inclusion in internet governance, and ethical approaches to AI. One of the crucial areas of focus for the forum was the threat to cybersecurity across the globe, due in part to growing geopolitical uncertainty. Cybersecurity and Geopolitical Uncertainty The 20-year review of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS+20) is set to happen this year. The creation of the IGF is an outcome of the first WSIS, and its mandate is set to expire in 2025. It is crucial for Ireland to be a part of the global conversations around the future of how the internet is governed. In a time of such political and economic disruption, the digital world is also turning its focus to cybersecurity threats which have heightened amid ongoing geopolitical risk. The World Economic Forum has shown that cybercrime increases during times of global crisis, with major events like pandemics, wars, tariffs and climate change events often being used by opportunistic cyber criminals to capitalise on confused or well-intentioned individuals. During the Covid-19 outbreak in 2020, the online world experienced a 'cyber-pandemic' of its own. As so many individuals and businesses shifted online rapidly, bad actors were quick to take advantage of people's naivety and fear, with the scale and quantity of cyber-crime exploding from this point onwards. Closer to home, a 2025 report from the Banking and Payments Federation found that almost half of Irish adults (45%) report being targeted with more scam communications than the same time last year. At a time when innovation is accelerating, yesterday's forum explored the need for Ireland to maintain a people-centred approach to technology - through ethical AI, inclusive governance, and safer online spaces for all. Digital Divide Impact on Internet Governance The forum also addressed the ongoing problem of the digital divide in Ireland. .ie's 2024 Domain Profile Report, launched in January of this year, identified evidence of an ongoing digital divide based on location, size and sector, in particular for micro-SMEs with fewer than 10 employees.[iv] As digital policy decisions increasingly affect every part of our lives, the question of whose voices are heard in those decisions is more urgent than ever. Speakers at the forum explored ways in which Ireland can ensure that internet governance is inclusive, equitable, and accessible - particularly for marginalised, vulnerable, and underrepresented communities. David Curtin, Chief Executive at .ie said "Events like the IGF Ireland do more than spark conversation - they build connections and drive solutions. By bringing together stakehol...

When Payment Solutions CEO Geoffrey Biddle was found murdered in his own home, those who knew him were shocked. He had meaningful relationships with his friends, family,  and employees, with no known enemies. He was the kind of man who was happy to lend a hand to a neighbor in need. But as investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a trail of fraud, deception, and premeditation leading them straight to jaded ex-employee, Billy Phillips. Stolen checks, suspicious internet searches and a mountain of evidence painted a dark picture of a murderous crime driven by pure greed. Written by Samantha Grove, Edited & Engineered by Scott Ecklein, and Executive Produced by Michael Ojibway.

We hear a lot about the pressures boys and young men are under and how many of them are looking to the online world - or manosphere as it's sometimes called - to find answers.

Anita Rani is joined by Will Adolphy, who was a dedicated follower of the manosphere until, in his mid 20s, he had a breakdown. He went offline for five years and rebuilt his life.

It's often said New Zealand has no native snakes, but that's not quite true. The venomous, ocean-dwelling yellow-bellied sea snake (Hydrophis platurus) occasionally drifts into our waters. Around 6 to 10 are spotted each year, and because they arrive naturally, they're officially classed as a native species. Chief Executive of Forest & Bird, Nicola Toki, told Jesse this beautiful snake is a true pelagic species, spending its entire life at sea and even giving birth in the open ocean.

FULL SUMMARY: https://eggshelltherapy.com/podcast-blog/2025/05/22/andrew_belfour/Today, we're joined by Dr. Balfour, a clinical psychologist, couples therapist, and psychoanalytic psychotherapist. He is the author of Life and Death: Our Relationship with Ageing, Dementia, and Other Fates of Time. In this conversation, we delve into the intersection of aging, relationships, and the search for meaning. Dr. Belfour shares his research on fostering emotional connections for couples in which one partner has dementia, and how small, everyday moments can create meaning even in the most challenging circumstances.Dr. Balfour also reflects on society's neglect of aging and mortality as crucial topics, attributing this to our collective fear of vulnerability and a cultural obsession with youth. This discussion doesn't shy away from the realities of aging, such as dependency, increased vulnerability, and existential regrets, but it also offers hope. Dr. Balfour shares valuable insights on navigating the challenges of aging, loneliness, and regret, providing practical ways to foster resilience and connection.  I hope this conversation resonates with you and offers a meaningful opportunity to consider these important themes.About Dr. Andrew Balfour:Andrew Balfour trained as a clinical psychologist at University College London and then as an adult psychotherapist at the Tavistock & Portman NHS Trust. He subsequently trained as a couple psychotherapist at Tavistock Relationships, where for more than 10 years he was Clinical Director before becoming Chief Executive in 2016. Dr. Balfour's book: Life and Death Our Relationship with Ageing, Dementia, and Other Fates of Time, published by Routledge in 2025Eggshell Therapy and Coaching: eggshelltherapy.com/Imi Lo:  imiloimilo.comSister Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3Zcl8ZUsu4AePugDoWtXcgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eggshelltransformationsNewsletters: https://eepurl.com/bykHRzDisclaimers: https://www.eggshelltherapy.com/disclaimers  Trigger Warning: This episode may cover sensitive topics including but not limited to suicide, abuse, violence, severe mental illnesses, relationship challenges, sex, drugs, alcohol addiction, psychedelics, and the use of plant medicines.

Since 2011, Syria has been ravaged by conflict, foreign interventions and political fragmentation – leaving millions displaced and communities in crisis.But amidst the devastation, a new conversation is taking shape.Just months after the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime, a new interim government led by Ahmed al-Sharaa has formed. A recent poll shows 70% of Syrians feel hopeful, but that hope is colliding with hard realities.More than 1,300 people – many believed to be civilians – have been killed in Syria's worst violence since the fall of the Assad regime, as clashes erupt between forces loyal to the new government and Assad holdouts. Meanwhile, reconstruction is stalled. Western sanctions, unpaid civil servants, and new US tariffs risk deepening the crisis.In this episode, we ask whether this fragile but hopeful moment for Syria can endure. Can international partners support recovery without repeating the mistakes of the past? And how can we centre the voices of Syrians in the process of rebuilding their country?GuestsSara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODI GlobalSana Kikhia, Executive Director, Syrian Legal Development Programme (SLDP) Leen Fouad, Senior Research Officer, Humanitarian Policy Group (HPG), ODI Global Amy Rodgers, Coordinator, Middle East Durable Solutions Platform Related resourcesSyria's chance to build better, not backward (Insight, ODI Global)Lifting sanctions on Syria: a bumpy path (Insight, ODI Global)Tens of thousands of people forcibly disappeared: will the international community step up for Syrians?

What legal responsibilities does a company have to keep your data secure?M&S, and the Co-op are picking up the pieces after their systems were hacked. The cyber criminals claim to have the private information of 20 million people who signed up to Co-op's membership scheme, but the firm have not confirmed that number. The Co-op says the breach did not include members' passwords, bank or credit card details. However, experts say seemingly innocent information can be used to commit fraud or identity theft.Companies aren't the only target; on Monday this week, the Ministry of Justice revealed that the Legal Aid Agency was also hacked in April. So can you sue if your private data is stolen in this way? And if you're the employee who clicked on a hacker's dodgy link in an email, how liable are you for any losses that occur?Also on the programme: How survivors of domestic violence in Scotland want to be told if their attackers make plea deals.

Legislation with massive implications for clean energy in the US has been making progress in Congress. The Republican party's “big beautiful bill”, introducing sweeping changes to taxes and government spending, would phase out most of the tax credits for low-carbon energy that were created, expanded or extended in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022.To unpack the proposals and examine what they might mean for the US and the world, host Ed Crooks is joined by some of the Energy Gang's top policy wonks:Amy Myers-Jaffe, Director of NYU's Energy, Climate Justice, and Sustainability LabRobbie Orvis, Senior Director for Modelling and Analysis at the thinktank Energy InnovationRay Long, President and Chief Executive of the American Council on Renewable Energy They discuss whether the phaseout of tax credits for wind, solar and storage will deter the development of renewable energy. The credits have created a whole industry to support investment in new renewables projects. What happens if those credits go away?The group also dig into the crucial details of the proposals, including changes to the transferability of tax credits, and more stringent provisions on “foreign entities of concern” or FEOCs. Those rules could affect the majority of clean energy projects in the US. As of Tuesday 20th May, the game is not over. Some Republicans in the House and the Senate senators think the proposals don't fit with the administration's bigger goals, and have been fighting to save at least some of the credits.The gang set out the various options for how the negotiations over the bill could play out, and assess the potential damage.And they ask the question: could clean energy in the US actually be better off without support from tax credits?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textImagine a world where our most vulnerable babies are protected without automatically severing their connection to their family. That's the vision Lauren Seager-Smith brings as Chief Executive of the For Baby's Sake Trust, where they're revolutionizing responses to domestic abuse during pregnancy and early childhood.The numbers are staggering: approximately 50,000 babies under two are referred to social care in England each year due to domestic abuse, with 2,000 entering out-of-home care. Each placement costs taxpayers £281,000 annually—but that's just the economic cost. The human toll is immeasurable.Lauren shares how their innovative program works therapeutically with both parents from pregnancy through the baby's second birthday. Unlike traditional approaches that focus exclusively on mothers or default to family separation, they engage fathers who use abusive behaviors while simultaneously supporting mothers and protecting children. What makes this approach particularly effective is its recognition that pregnancy represents a critical intervention point where many parents are highly motivated to change.The program reveals profound insights about intergenerational trauma. Among participating parents, 73% of fathers and 74% of mothers have experienced six or more adverse childhood experiences themselves. "For many of our fathers, they want a different story for their baby," Lauren explains. This motivation becomes the foundation for intensive work around emotional regulation, trauma processing, and building attunement with their infant.Perhaps most striking is the economic case for prevention. At approximately £9,000 per year per family—versus £281,000 for a child in care—programs like For Baby's Sake offer a fiscally responsible alternative to our current crisis-response systems. Yet despite this clear math, governments continue prioritizing expensive reactive measures over prevention.This conversation challenges us to think differently about protecting children. Can we create systems that hold those who use violence accountable while supporting their capacity to change? Can we recognize the profound connection between maternal and child welfare without placing impossible burdens on mothers? Most importantly, can we find the courage to invest in prevention, even when immediate crises demand our attention?Join us for this thought-provoking discussion that reimagines what's possible when we truly commit to breaking cycles of harm and supporting healthy family connections from the very beginning of life.Learn more at: https://forbabyssake.org.uk/ Now available!

This podcast episode features the fourth panel session of the day at our Artemis ILS NYC 2025 conference, which was held on February 7th in New York City. ILS NYC 2025 was Artemis' eighth catastrophe bond and insurance-linked securities (ILS) conference held in-person in New York and saw more than 425 registered attendees enjoying insightful debates from our expert speakers, as well as valuable networking opportunities throughout the day. Attendees from across the globe assembled to hear thought-provoking insights from insurance-linked securities (ILS) market leaders, all under the theme of "Capturing opportunities (established & new)." Our next audio from the ILS NYC 2025 conference features the fourth panel discussion of the day, which was focused on the emerging casualty insurance-linked securities (ILS) market where investors are accessing the returns of longer-tailed casualty insurance risks. The panel discussion was moderated by John Seo, Co-Founder, Managing Director, Fermat Capital Management. He was joined by: David Ni, Chief Strategy Officer, Enstar Group; Andras Bohm, Head of U.S. Capital Solutions & Advisory, BMS Group; Amy Stern, Chief Executive, Reinsurance, Ledger Investing; and Bob Forness, CEO, MultiStrat Group. While casualty insurance-linked securities (ILS) may seem nascent to some, the market has been in development for a number of years now. The panellists set the scene and explained what this segment of the ILS asset class is, as well as why casualty risks can be attractive investments. This panel discussed the evolution and potential of the casualty insurance-linked securities (ILS) market, forecasting an opportunity to grow the segment from an estimated $3-4 billion current base to potentially exceeding $10 billion by 2026. Key points in the discussion included the shift from catastrophe-focused ILS to casualty ILS, driven by improvements to the infrastructure of the ILS market, as well as investor interest in accessing new classes of insurance risk.  The casualty ILS market's growth is largely attributed to risk sourced through whole account quota shares, which the panel said enable stable, diversified portfolios to be constructed for investors.  The discussion also highlighted the importance of exit solutions to provide investor certainty of liquidity, the need for strong partnerships, and that underwriting discipline is key to manage risks and ensure sustainable growth of the casualty ILS space. Listen to the full podcast episode of this casualty insurance-linked securities (ILS) focused panel discussion at ILS NYC 2025, for unique insights into the developing casualty ILS market, what investors need to know about this asset class, and how cedents can benefit from access to efficient capacity from the capital markets.

With the Government pledging to overhaul the way food is sourced for public institutions like hospitals, schools, prisons, and army bases, Sheila Dillon explores how these changes could be implemented and why they are deemed essential by many.Sheila visits St Peter's Hospital in Chertsey, Surrey, where chef Raouf Mansour has transformed the canteen for staff and visitors. After bringing the operation in-house post-Covid, the hospital began collaborating with local suppliers to provide fresh, seasonal produce. Raouf emphasises that retraining chefs to prepare nutritious, mezze-style meals has been crucial in encouraging staff to dine at the restaurant. The hospital is also working on plans to revamp patient meals, which are all prepared off-site, by working with smaller local caterers who can better meet some of the specific needs of patients there.Following her visit, Sheila returns to the studio to discuss whether the changes in Chertsey could signal a broader trend. She is joined by:Kevin Morgan, Professor of Governance and Development at Cardiff University and author of "Serving the Public: The Good Food Revolution in Schools, Hospitals, and Prisons" Kath Dalmeny, Chief Executive of Sustain Katie Palmer from Food Sense Wales, who is working on the Welsh Veg in Schools Project Derek Wright from Blackpool Catering Services, which has expanded its school meal provision over the past five years, with on-site chefs and locally sourced produce.Presented by Sheila Dillon Produced in Bristol for BBC Audio by Natalie Donovan
