Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, the CEO of Mercy Corps, shares insights on growing global food insecurity and deepening inequality.At the end of 2022, one in 10 children worldwide were dealing with malnourishment, the result of the worst hunger crisis the world has faced in a generation. It's an effect of the ricocheting of the triple threat of climate change, geopolitical conflict and Covid-19 through the global economy. Though there's little chance of resolving these issues imminently, community-sourced efforts can play a large role in combating the devastation they bring to people around the world.On a recent trip to Somalia, Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, the chief executive of humanitarian aid organisation, Mercy Corps, saw the real-life impact of these global concerns up close. On stage at BoF VOICES 2022, she discussed that experience, and how people around the world can contribute to positive change. “[Global community] should inspire us to really make small actions, to make a difference and figure out ways in our own lives and in our own lines of work where we can contribute,” said D'Oyen McKenna. This week on The BoF Podcast, D'Oyen McKenna discusses details of her visit to Somalia and the effects food insecurity has on society. Key Insights: D'Oyen McKenna believes we all have a responsibility to engage with and respond to crises around the world, even if the causes are out of our hands. “While none of us can fully control the forces that are shaping our world today, we do get to choose how we represent ourselves in that world,” said D'Oyen McKenna. “But also how we engage with the world that we find, how we respond to it and act in it.” Despite the hardships that citizens of Somalia and other impoverished or conflict-ridden countries face, human determination and grit always shine through. “Even amongst this unimaginable hardship and grief… the power of the human spirit really comes alive,” said D'Oyen McKenna. While the world can feel divided with society frequently grouped under different sub-categories, D'Oyen McKenna argues that we should create a new sense of global community. “In a world of pandemics, climate crises and global hunger there is no us and them, only us.”Additional Resources:BoF VOICES 2022: Finding Optimism in an Unsteady World: From the Ukraine War to the climate crisis to the legacy of the pandemic, speakers including CNN's Clarissa Ward, Mercy Corps' Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, Goldman Sachs' Tim Ingrassia and Google X's former chief business officer Mo Gawdat discussed the uncertainty gripping the world — and why there's cause for hope.To learn more about the BoF Professional Summit: Artificial Intelligence, Web3 and an Inflection Point in Fashion Tech, please click here Hosted on Acast.

CNN chief international correspondent Clarissa Ward spoke at BoF VOICES 2022 about victory and grief in the crisis, and what the international community must do to stand with the Ukrainian people.Background:Russia's invasion of Ukraine transformed grain fields into battlefields, levelled whole cities and triggered a global food and energy crisis. Even as Ukraine has pushed back Russian forces, there appears to be no end in sight to the conflict. After weeks and months of occupation Ukrainian cities liberated from Russian troops have experienced “jubilation” while “victory looks very grim and very dark and very empty,” Clarissa Ward, chief international correspondent CNN, said in the opening talk of BoF VOICES 2022. “While there is no question that Ukraine is in a sense winning this war, it is coming at a very bitter cost,” she said. This week on The BoF Podcast, Ward shares a frontline perspective from Ukraine and what the international community can do to unify its response.Key Insights:Ward believes that the war in Ukraine has taken on a “David and Goliath dynamic” as fighting turns against Russia.. “I think it's really important when we talk about war and we think about war, that we don't get carried away with the kind of football game excitement analogy,” says Ward.During her time in Ukraine, Ward has seen both the resilience of Ukrainians but also the grief from mothers losing sons on the front line and in civilian deaths. “It's so easy to get carried away with these stories of bravery,” says Ward. “But underpinning that is the real trauma.”While no international forces have entered the war on Ukraine's side, Ward states that the country's allies must remain united in providing humanitarian aid and military assistance. “Ukraine's international backers really need to have a very clear, cogent and coherent sense and a unified sense of what exactly they want to see of how they would like to see this end,” says Ward.Additional Resources:BoF VOICES 2022: Finding Optimism in an Unsteady World: From the Ukraine War to the climate crisis to the legacy of the pandemic, speakers including CNN's Clarissa Ward, Mercy Corps' Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, Goldman Sachs' Tim Ingrassia and Google X's former chief business officer Mo Gawdat discussed the uncertainty gripping the world — and why there's cause for hope.

Tim Blanks sits down with Ziad Ahmed, chief executive of JUV Consulting and Stephanie Simon, the former head of community at Clubhouse to reflect on VOICES. BackgroundThe first three sessions at BoF VOICES 2022 tackled issues inside the fashion industry and far beyond. Speakers explored the climate crisis and accusations of corporate greenwashing; the potential of artificial intelligence and the associated ethical implications; the war in Ukraine and growing economic uncertainty and inequality across the globe and Gen-Z's rising anger over these issues and how to start to fix them.“At this event, fashion is often quite marginal,” said BoF editor-at-large Tim Blanks during the live recording of “The Best of VOICES With Tim Blanks.” “It's in our minds, but what we're talking about are the world's big, definitive issues.Blanks was joined by VOICES speaker Ziad Ahmed, chief executive of JUV Consulting and Stephanie Simon, the former head of community at Clubhouse, to reflect on the highlights from the first two days of talks and panel discussions.Key InsightsThe climate crisis is the cloud that hangs over everything, from technology to the economy. But rather than waiting on private companies to create change, widespread regulations are essential, said Simon. “It seems much more straightforward to mandate the targets that we're going to need in order to ensure progress from a climate change perspective.”The potential of artificial intelligence is limitless, but humans can help control how the world of AI unfolds. “We teach AI by example,” said Blanks. “By being ethical, kind human beings, AI learns to be ethical and kind.” While the younger generation is interested in new technologies, there's also a trepidation about the companies and people creating these innovations and a desire to upend past practices. “There's often an assumption that Gen-Z is leading the charge towards innovation,” said Ahmed. “Broadly speaking, that's not really the case. A lot of young people are really sceptical and critical about our own relationships to technology.”To see change, today's stakeholders need to bring the next generation into the decision-making process — and begin to relinquish control. “The solutions to the problems that we are facing exist,” said Ahmed. “The question is if the people who currently have the reins will give them up.” Additional ResourcesBoF VOICES 2022: Finding Optimism in an Unsteady World: From the Ukraine War to the climate crisis to the legacy of the pandemic, speakers including CNN's Clarissa Ward, Mercy Corps' Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, Goldman Sachs' Tim Ingrassia and Google X's former chief business officer Mo Gawdat discussed the uncertainty gripping the world — and why there's cause for hope.
