    The city of Goma in the conflict-hit east of the Democratic Republic of Congo was seized by the M23 armed group earlier this year after intense fighting with government forces. How has the city changed after six months under the group's control?After retired police officers in Nigeria held demonstrations earlier this week calling for better pensions, we look at wider pension provision and ask if young Nigerians see pension planning as a secure path to protecting their retirement? And could there be a new type of diabetes that accounts for the rising number of cases among young people in Africa.Presenter: Richard Kagoe Producers: Tom Kavanagh, Sunita Nahar and Nyasha Michelle in London.

    In Bureau Buitenland Zomerhelden spreken we met onze gasten over hun persoonlijke held of heldin: mensen die tegen de stroom in gaan, die ons inspireren en die bouwen in plaats van afbreken. Congo kent een lang verleden van conflict en geweld, strijd om grondstoffen en corruptie. Een geschiedenis die opnieuw zichtbaar is in de oorlog die in oosten van het land afgelopen half jaar is opgelaaid. De held van VRT-journalist Katrien Vanderschoot, probeert al sinds haar 21ste de koers van het land te veranderen. Rebecca Kabugho doet dat temidden van alle strijd slechts gewapend met woorden. In een tijd waarin vredesakkoorden om de oorlog te stoppen de krant halen, maar de diepere oorzaken minder worden besproken, laat het levensverhaal van Rebecca één ding glashelder zien: echte verandering begint van binnenuit. Presentatie: Tim de Wit.

    Deux jours après la signature de la déclaration de principes entre le gouvernement congolais et l'AFC/M23 à Doha, sous la médiation du Qatar, place désormais à la mise en œuvre. Quel état d'esprit anime les deux parties ? Sont-elles prêtes à respecter les engagements pris ? Et concrètement, comment suivre ce processus de désescalade sur le terrain ?Jacquemain Shabani, vice-Premier ministre congolais, en charge de l'Intérieur, de la Sécurité, de la Décentralisation et des Affaires coutumières, a suivi les discussions à Doha pour le compte du gouvernement. Il est l'invité de RFI ce matin. Il répond aux questions de Patient Ligodi. RFI : Pourquoi parle-t-on d'un cessez-le-feu permanent et non pas d'un cessez-le-feu immédiat ? À partir de quand ce cessez-le-feu permanent est-il censé être entré en vigueur ? Jacquemain Shabani : Il est entré en vigueur depuis le communiqué du 23 avril. La déclaration des principes est revenue là-dessus pour insister et réaffirmer la volonté des parties sur ce principe-là. Et à quelle date est prévue la mise en place du mécanisme conjoint de vérification entre le gouvernement congolais et l'AFC/M23 ? Est-ce que la Monusco et le Qatar seront associés à ce mécanisme ? Ils seront nécessairement associés à ce mécanisme-là. Et tout cela va être explicité et décliné dans le communiqué de paix qui va bientôt être signé encore une fois à Doha. Dix jours à dater de la signature de la déclaration de principes, les équipes vont se retrouver pour la rédaction et la signature du prochain document qui est le communiqué de paix. Que se passera-t-il si l'une ou l'autre des parties ne respecte pas les dispositions de la déclaration de principes ? Depuis le communiqué du 23 avril, il y a autour de la médiation qatarie, un mécanisme d'observation et de vérification de l'état des lieux de la zone en conflit. Et il y a des rapports quotidiens qui se font, qui permettent aussi à cette médiation d'interpeller d'une certaine manière les différentes parties. Et à ce propos, les textes mentionnent que les parties s'engagent à faire en sorte que toutes les forces impliquées respectent le cessez-le-feu. Cela signifie-t-il que vous allez également influencer les Wazalendo et autres groupes armés qui combattent à vos côtés ? Nécessairement. Ici, il faut intégrer le fait que nous avons ce souci-là de stabilité, de la quiétude de nos populations qui vivent dans ces zones. Il est de notre devoir de l'influencer dans ce sens-là, et c'est le rôle que nous jouons au quotidien. Si vous suivez les activités des gouverneurs de province, c'est le rôle qu'ils sont en train de jouer. Dans la déclaration de principes, il est aussi question de la libération des prisonniers. L'AFC/M23 évoque plus de 700 détenus issus de ses rangs. Quand auront lieu les premières libérations ? Alors, cette question a été indiquée effectivement comme étant un des principes qui fera l'objet des échanges et des discussions pour la rédaction de l'accord de paix. Donc, il faut attendre encore quelques jours pour voir la signature de ce document final qui va définir et déterminer les conditions dans lesquelles les différents prisonniers, de part et d'autre, pourront être libérés. Cette question va être discutée et résolue dans l'accord de paix ou bien avant l'accord de paix ? Dans l'accord de paix. Si un accord global est signé effectivement d'ici au 17 août, quel avenir voyez-vous pour l'AFC/M23 ? Bon, je ne saurais moi-même ici aujourd'hui définir un avenir clair pour cette organisation, mais je crois que ça va faire l'objet des différentes discussions. Nous avons aussi identifié comme principe la nécessité d'un dialogue politique, donc nous verrons, entre autres, dans les différentes discussions. Mais c'est à eux aussi de s'exprimer et d'intégrer le processus dans lequel la République démocratique du Congo est en train de s'engager pour que, enfin, ce cycle de violences, de guerres et d'interventions de forces étrangères dans la déstabilisation de la République démocratique du Congo, ne se répète plus. Et de réaliser qu'il y a eu déjà auparavant un pacte républicain mis en place, arriver à l'intégrer, et à eux aussi en toute responsabilité de faire un choix pour le bonheur du peuple congolais et pour la stabilité de la République démocratique du Congo.

    Un document de plus paraphé ce week-end après l'accord scellé à Washington le 27 juin entre Kinshasa et Kigali. « La quête de la paix dans l'est de la RDC avance donc sur deux fronts distincts, mais complémentaires », souligne Econews. Le texte conclu au Qatar ouvre la voie à un cessez-le-feu, mais, selon le média congolais en ligne, la « population de l'est, épuisée par des années de violence, observe ces développements avec un mélange d'espoir et de méfiance ».  « Les Congolais doivent rester lucides et se dire que cet accord ne guérira pas en un jour les plaies béantes de Goma ou Bunagana », prévient aussi Le Pays.    Un accord à transposer sur le terrain   Econews, encore, rappelle que « les précédents accords ont échoué en raison du manque de suivi ». « Ces accords de paix sont comme des papillons, beaux et éphémères », prophétise Le Pays, « le plus souvent écrasés sous les bottes de la cupidité et des ambitions démesurées des prédateurs ».  D'ailleurs, le journal congolais Le Potentiel grince : « les véritables gagnants dans cette affaire sont les États-Unis », comédiateurs dans ce conflit donc avec le Qatar. « Sans tirer un seul coup de feu, ils obtiennent un accès stratégique à une part importante des minerais du Congo contre une promesse de paix. Une paix monnayée, floue, sans véritable levier de transformation pour les populations », souffle le quotidien de Kinshasa.  La situation au Sahel au cœur d'une rencontre entre la presse et Abdelmajid Tebboune  Selon Dernières infos d'Algérie, le dirigeant a « rassuré » à propos de la menace que peut représenter la crise sécuritaire au Sahel, insistant sur « la grande expérience de l'Algérie en matière de lutte contre le terrorisme ». « Le pays a beaucoup aidé les frères maliens à surmonter la crise et reste disposé à le faire », mais l'Algérie refuse la présence de mercenaires russes à sa frontière a averti le président Tebboune. Les combattants de Wagner, et maintenant ceux de l'Africa Corps ont toujours « irrité » Alger rappelle TSA.  Le Matin d'Algérie note en revanche les nombreuses lacunes d'un « pathétique monologue » du président Tebboune, dans un « exercice de communication bien huilé ». Aucune question sur les conséquences dans les relations avec Moscou, rien non plus sur les accusations de certains acteurs maliens qui reprochent à l'Algérie une certaine complaisance à l'égard de réseaux jihadistes opérant dans la région.    Des mercenaires africains engagés par la Russie en Ukraine   El Pais commence par évoquer le sort d'un Nigérian, il s'appelle Oluwagbemileke Kehinde. Il a été engagé comme par la Russie où il était venu faire ses études il y a quatre ans et a été capturé il y a quelques jours par l'Ukraine. Son cas est loin d'être isolé, Moscou promet à des Africains de travailler pour l'armée russe loin du front. L'offre est alléchante : « 2 000 euros par mois et un passeport russe », liste El Pais, mais en quelques semaines, « l'appât qui les a poussés à signer un contrat se transforme en cauchemar ». Ils sont alors envoyés dans des assauts massifs, meurent ou sont faits prisonniers.  Comme le Nigérian Kehinde, des centaines de ressortissants de dix pays africains se sont retrouvés pris au piège, sauf qu'ensuite « ni la Russie, ni leur pays d'origine ne les réclament ». D'ailleurs, selon les archives de la diplomatie ukrainienne consultée par le média ibérique, seule Lomé s'est préoccupé du sort de ses ressortissants captifs.

    Before they built empires, the Europeans built ports.Across Africa and Asia, European sailors arrived as merchants. They traded and negotiated. They defended their interests—sometimes with cannon fire. But they were not trying to govern a foreign land.Yet things changed. Why?Historian Tirthankar Roy has a bold new answer. Roy is a professor at the London School of Economics, where he teaches a renowned course on the economic history of colonialism. His most recent book isThe Origins of Colonialism. And in it, Roy explains that we cannot understand the origins of European Empires in Asia and Africa by simply zooming into the actions of Europeans. We must understand what happened to the elites of the lands being conquered. And more often than not, that had to do with the rains, rivers, and access to water. In this episode, Roy explains how his theory sheds light on the rise of the British Empire in India. Along the way, we also sketch many broader ideas about the story of global colonialism, from Chinese ports to the conquest of Burma and from the water problems of Mumbai to the rubber plantations of Congo.Enjoy!This is part two of this summer's mini-series on the way climate has shaped the human story.

    Au milieu des années 1870, la Belgique, à l'instigation du roi Léopold II, commence à regarder vers les horizons d'outre-mer. On crée des sociétés de géographie, à Bruxelles et à Anvers. Puis, c'est l'association internationale africaine qui voit le jour. Des expéditions d'exploration sont organisées. Stanley, dans son livre « Cinq années au Congo » rend hommages aux grands découvreurs : Van de Bogaerde, Gillis, Braconnier et les autres. L'Asie devient aussi une terre à mieux connaitre. L'un de ceux qui va le mieux traduire ses impressions d'Orient est le peintre, écrivain et voyageur, Jean Robie. De lui, l'histoire n'a retenu que ses somptueuses compositions florales, on l'a d'ailleurs appelé : l'amant des roses. Mais Robie est, surtout, un merveilleux chroniqueur de son temps, à travers ses images et ses écrits. Parti de rien, il est mort couvert d'honneurs. C'est ce fabuleux destin que l'on vous raconte aujourd'hui. Celui du belge Jean Robie.

    Coltan, cuivre, or: la difficile traçabilité des minerais en Afrique centrale

    Alors que les minerais extraits en Afrique centrale sont essentiels aux technologies du quotidien, leur traçabilité reste problématique. Entre initiatives internationales et controverses judiciaires, les entreprises sont sous pression pour assumer leur devoir de vigilance. La société luxembourgeoise Traxys a récemment été épinglée par l'ONG Global Witness. Elle est accusée d'avoir acheté plusieurs centaines de tonnes de coltan au Rwanda, un minerai stratégique utilisé notamment dans les smartphones, mais bien souvent extrait dans des conditions illégales en République démocratique du Congo. L'ONG affirme que ce minerai proviendrait de mines congolaises, comme celle de Rubaya, dans une région minée par les conflits armés. Traxys rejette les accusations. Pourtant, l'opacité des chaînes d'approvisionnement reste fréquente dans cette zone. Pour limiter les risques, les entreprises peuvent s'appuyer sur le guide de l'OCDE sur le devoir de diligence. Ce document propose une série de pratiques dites « responsables ». Selon Karim Dahou, directeur adjoint des relations mondiales à l'OCDE, la transparence progresse, et « les entreprises prennent de plus en plus au sérieux leur responsabilité ». Il cite un exemple révélateur : une mine de cuivre évaluée à trois milliards de tonnes de réserves a vu son projet suspendu par une Cour constitutionnelle, faute de consultation des communautés locales dans une zone protégée. « Beaucoup de projets sont retardés ou annulés parce qu'ils ne respectent pas les normes », explique-t-il Des recours juridiques contre les multinationales De son côté, la RDC a porté plainte en France et en Belgique contre des filiales d'Apple, les accusant d'avoir participé au recel de minerais exploités illégalement dans l'est du pays. Le groupe américain affirme avoir depuis suspendu ses approvisionnements en provenance de la RDC et du Rwanda. En France, la plainte a été classée sans suite en février, mais la procédure suit son cours en Belgique. Pour améliorer la traçabilité, des programmes comme ITSCI sont mis en place. Dirigé par Mickaël Daudin, ITSCI aide les entreprises à assumer leur devoir de diligence sur le terrain. « Le cœur du travail, c'est d'être dans les mines, de suivre les risques au quotidien et de les résoudre de manière transparente, insiste-t-il. Aucune solution n'est parfaite. Mais détourner le regard ne fera pas disparaître les abus. » À lire aussiEst de la RDC: la contrebande de minerai vers le Rwanda s'intensifie

    It's Wednesday, July 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Christians losing property rights in India, Nepal and Pakistan International Christian Concern reports Christians are losing their property rights and access to land in South Asian nations like India, Nepal, and Pakistan. In particular, India's second-most populous state of Maharashtra plans to demolish hundreds of church buildings within six months. Officials claim the structures are unauthorized, and many of them are in tribal areas.  The government also plans to enact an anti-conversion law. Such laws are often used to target Christians in the country. Currently, 12 of 28 states in India have anti-conversion laws. South Asian nations like India are ranked on the Open Doors' World Watch List as some of the most difficult places to live as a Christian.  World population growth slowing down Pew Research recently released world population projections for the next 75 years. The global population more than tripled over the last 75 years from 2.5 to 8.2 billion people. However, population growth is expected to slow down, only reaching 10.2 billion by 2100. Currently, the most populous countries in the world are China, India, and the U.S. China's population is expected to shrink by more than half over the next 75 years, while the U.S. and India are expected to grow slightly.    Global population growth is projected to primarily come from nations in Africa like Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, and Tanzania.  10th anniversary of undercover videos exposing Planned Parenthood This week marks 10 years since the Center for Medical Progress released their first undercover videos exposing Planned Parenthood. Executives for the abortion giant were caught discussing how they sold the body parts of murdered babies. The undercover investigation has contributed to efforts for defunding Planned Parenthood. Troy Newman, the president of Operation Rescue, served as a founding member on the board of the Center for Medical Progress. He said, “I am honored to have been a part of this historic investigation, even though it came at great personal cost to those of us involved in revealing the horrific truth about the illicit trade in aborted baby parts. Today's Planned Parenthood is vastly different from what it was in 2015. It is a weaker organization with waning political influence that is now collapsing from within.” Proverbs 6:17 says that among the seven things God hates are “haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood.” Trump threatens Russia with tariff to get peace deal with Ukraine In a public meeting with NATO General Secretary Mark Rutte at the White House, U.S. President Donald Trump threatened severe tariffs on Monday if Russia doesn't come to a peace deal with Ukraine in the next 50 days. TRUMP: “One of the reasons that you're here today is to hear that we are very unhappy, I am, with Russia. We're very, very unhappy with them. And we're going to be doing very severe tariffs if we don't have a deal in 50 days, tariffs at about 100%. You'd call them secondary tariffs. You know what that means.” (His comments occur at the :45 mark of this video) Trump also said the United States will sell top-of-the-line weapons to countries in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. In turn, NATO countries would then be able to provide such weapons like the Patriot air defense system to Ukraine.    Trump wants Federal Reserve to lower interest to save trillion dollars The U.S. consumer price index rose by 0.3% last month. That put the 12-month inflation rate at 2.7%. Prices have been generally decreasing over the last year, but the inflation rate is still above the Federal Reserve's target of 2%.  Trump responded to the news by calling on the Fed to lower interest rates by three points. He said this would save an estimated one trillion dollars on debt payments.  Bible readers most likely to volunteer in community And finally, the American Bible Society released the fourth chapter of its State of the Bible USA 2025 report. The chapter evaluated activities that promote wellbeing like physical exercise, spending time with a friend, volunteering in the community, meditation, and praying to God. The study found people who engage the most with the Bible are also the most likely to engage in those activities, especially volunteering in the community.  Such activities were also associated with higher levels of hope and lower levels of stress, anxiety, and loneliness. However, people who attend church regularly experienced even better results in those areas. 1 Timothy 4:8 says, “For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, July 16th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

The New Taipei District Prosecutor's Office is investigating alleged forgery in recall petitions targeting DPP legislators including Su Chiao-hui, Chang Hong-lu and Lee Kun-cheng, indicting over 31 people on charges related to violating personal data protection laws and forgery last month.

UN Global Vaccine Coverage Report Warns of Unequal Access U.N. health officials reported that more than 14 million children did not receive a single vaccine last year. In their annual estimate of global vaccine coverage, released today, the World Health Organization and UNICEF said access to vaccines remained “deeply unequal” and that conflict and humanitarian crises quickly unraveled progress. The data showed that nine countries accounted for 52% of all children who missed out on immunizations entirely: Nigeria, India, Sudan, Congo, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Yemen, Afghanistan and Angola. The WHO and UNICEF said that coverage against measles rose slightly, with 76% of children worldwide receiving both vaccine doses. But experts say measles vaccine rates need to reach 95% to prevent outbreaks of the extremely contagious (傳染性的) disease. WHO noted that 60 countries reported big measles outbreaks last year, including the US, which is now having its worst measles outbreak in more than three decades. Germany Tarantula Smuggling Attempt Busted Customs officials have released photos from a seizure of roughly 1-thousand-500 young tarantulas found inside plastic containers that had been hidden in chocolate spongecake boxes shipped to an airport in western Germany.

    The hero shrew of Congo possesses an extraordinary spine that can withstand a full-grown person standing on it, yet remains flexible enough for the animal to turn completely around in tight spaces. This remarkable backbone defies evolutionary explanations with its unique interlocking vertebrae and specialized muscles found nowhere else in nature. Scientists have struggled to explain how such complex engineering could arise through gradual evolution. Despite discovering what they claim is an evolutionary intermediate, researchers still cannot identify the specific behavior that would drive such dramatic spinal modifications. The Mangbetu people have long marveled at this creature's incredible strength, but modern science continues to search for answers about its origins and purpose.

    Clint Leavitt believes that every great story we love is actually pointing us toward something bigger. As pastor of Midtown Presbyterian Church in Phoenix, he's discovered how fiction can serve as shadows of the deepest reality, and how narratives can pierce through our purely rational defences to reach the heart. His approach to ministry focuses on creating space for sceptics, deconstructors, and question-askers, building trust through shared stories and artistic mediums rather than demanding immediate belief.   In this conversation, Clint shares his journey from selling flip books on elementary school playgrounds to becoming a Tomatometer-approved film critic, pastor, and author. His latest book, "Cockroaches, God, Death, and Mangos," tells the remarkable refugee story of his friend from the Democratic Republic of Congo, one of the bloodiest conflicts in world history since World War II. Through this friendship, Clint discovered how western colonization continues to impact current refugee crises, and how the church is called to expand its vision beyond national borders to embrace God's heart for the marginalised and displaced.   WEBLINKS The Leavitt Lens Clint on X Midtown Presbyterian Church on Facebook Midtown Presbyterian Church on Instagram   Midtown Presbyterian Church on Youtube

    Childhood is a special time, a strange time. Children are adored and catered to—they're given their own menus and bedrooms. They're considered delicate and precious, and so we cushion them from every imaginable risk. Kids are encouraged to play, of course—but very often it's under the watchful eye of anxious adults. This anyway is how childhood looks in much of the United States today. But is this they way childhood looks everywhere? Is this the way human childhoods have always been? My guests today are Dr. Dorsa Amir and Dr. Sheina Lew-Levy. Dorsa is an Assistant Professor of Psychology & Neuroscience at Duke University, where she runs the Mind and Culture Lab. Sheina is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Durham University in the UK, where she co-directs the Forager Child Studies research group. Both Sheina and Dorsa have spent much of their careers thinking about how childhoods differ across cultures—and why. In this conversation, I talk with Dorsa and Sheina about their fieldwork with indigenous groups in Ecuador and the Congo, respectively. We discuss the different ways that childhood differs in these places—for instance, in terms of parents' attitudes toward risk, in terms of the social structures and activities in which kids are embedded, and in terms of the freedom that children are granted. We discuss developmental psychology's "WEIRD problem." We talk about about the quasi-autonomous cultures that children create among themselves—sometimes called "peer cultures"—and discuss how these kid-driven cultures end up shaping and benefit the larger community. Along the way, we touch on adult supremacy, adverse childhood experiences, walking the forest and climbing papaya trees, parenting norms, ding dong ditch and "nananabooboo", the pioneering work of the folklorists Iona and Peter Opie, teaching, toys, and the enduring question of what childhood is for.   Alright friends, lots to think about here. On to my conversation with Sheina Lew-Levy and Dorsa Amir.

    Tommy and Ben lament Trump's travesty of a spending bill and the death of USAID, and how both will cost lives and further tank America's global reputation. They unpack the fallout from Israel and the US's strikes on Iran, the bizarre delusions and marginalization of Tulsi Gabbard, and the ending of Temporary Protected Status for Haitians. They also discuss Trump's interference in Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial, the latest horrors in Gaza, shocking settler violence in the West Bank, and anti-Israel speech at the UK's Glastonbury Festival. Also covered: new fighting between Ukraine and an emboldened Russia, Trump's shaky ceasefire and resource-grab masquerading as a “peace deal” between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, and a triumphant pride parade in Budapest. Finally, they plan a trip to the world's next top spring break destination: Wonsan Kalma, North Korea.
