Should the U.S. stop giving foreign aid? This is a question many have been asking long before Elon Musk and Donald Trump launched DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) and began dismantling USAID and its work around the globe. Critics of foreign aid, like Bill Easterly, author of The White Man's Burden, and Dambisa Moyo, author of Dead Aid, argue that foreign aid often does more harm than good. They contend that the U.S. and other nations should radically rethink their approach. But this winter, Donald Trump did something no one expected: he halted nearly all foreign aid and operations worldwide. Today, we're joined by long-time international correspondent and host of NPR's Rough Translation, Gregory Warner, for a deep dive into why USAID was founded in the first place, how it expanded into the massive program it is today, the consequences of freezing its operations, and an examination of the claims that USAID is part of a U.S. deep-state operation. For the listener who'd like to hear more from Warner, he publishes a Substack newsletter called Rough Transition. And if you reach out to him mentioning you're coming from Reflector, he's happy to offer a complimentary six-month subscription. Thank you to our sponsor Ground News.

She discusses where the UK and Germany are failing, why excessive regulation is a problem, how she weighs up bonds versus stocks, EM versus DM equities. She also covers why Warren Buffett may be spot on with his energy investments, and how the US economic boom masks a more stagnant picture in emerging markets (home to 90% of the world population).

Dambisa Moyo is an economist and board member of Chevron and 3M. She's also author of the 2018 book Edge of Chaos. In this week's episode of Merryn Talks Money, Moyo and host Merryn Somerset Webb discuss whether the world has finally slipped off the edge. Moyo says it feels that way. Most economies were already stagnating before the pandemic struck, she says. Growth was trending downwards, productivity was a problem and it was hard to see how countries could all grow their GDPs at 3% a year.Now there's a new and urgent question, she says: what to do with people who won't have work in an AI dominated economy. It won't be long before pretty much every country—even the UK—has too many workers, she warns. There are, however, some easy wins Britain can notch, she says. Namely, lowering taxes and loosening regulations. The UK has gotten a bad rap thanks to Brexit and political uncertainty, Moyo says, but that doesn't mean it can't take advantage of its intellectual base and prime location.

What's in store for the global economy in 2023? Well, it's not going to be pretty. A raging war in Europe, sky-high inflation, and an unstable China will create strong economic headwinds in the year to come. But it's not all doom and gloom. Globalization has brought prosperity to billions worldwide. And in the United States, the economy has made it out of the pandemic remarkably well. On the GZERO World podcast, Ian Bremmer speaks to renowned global economist, Dambisa Moyo, who says global inflation is not going anywhere, as the likelihood of a worldwide recession looms large. The US and China are moving into creating separate economic worlds, but are still closely linked. Although most of the world understands that they need to transition to cleaner energy, in the short term they still rely on “a hundred million barrels of oil every day.” Europe is creating what Moyo calls an “industrial Band-Aid solution,” rather than long term solutions to rely on energy from other countries. They discuss how these combined threats will affect the world economy this year.

After decades of struggling for recognition, environmental issues, including biodiversity conservation, have exploded onto the global scene in recent years. This is incredibly encouraging and gratifying, but are we sufficiently aware of the risks that come with such vastly increased public support? How much is politics influencing the public discourse on the environment? Are we paying enough attention to other, interrelated, societal goals and the trade-offs between them?Esther Krakue is a young broadcaster, writer, and talk TV contributor. She's been on the media scene for only a few years, but she features on various well-known TV channels, podcasts and other forums. She has some strong opinions on how environmentalism, especially environmental activism, may be heading in the wrong direction, and could even threaten the movement itself.Links to resources referred to in the episodeCan GMOs benefit biodiversity? - Episode of The Case for Conservation Podcast with Ghanaian environmental journalist, Joseph Opoku Gakpo, who writes about GMOs and other aspects of agriculture, the environment, and rural development.Loss and damage - Reports and technical documents pertaining to the work of the “loss and damage workstream” of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).Dead Aid: Why Aid Is Not Working and How There Is a Better Way for Africa - Book by Zambian economist, Dambisa Moyo, on the drawbacks of aid and the problems with tied aid.Visit www.case4conservation.com

As we operate in a rapidly evolving world, how has the mandate of the board changed, and what does that mean for their responsibilities and duties moving forward? Hear from global economist and experienced leader Dr. Dambisa Moyo as she shares insights from her latest book: “How Boards Work – And How They Can Work Better in a Chaotic World”
The Inclusive Growth Podcast - hosted by the Centre for Progressive Policy
One of the 100 most influential people in the world according to TIME Magazine, Dr. Dambisa Moyo is a best-selling author and economist. Her work is focussed on the future of economic growth and placing living standards at the backbone of human progress. According to Moyo, the world is facing threatening economic headwinds including income inequality, the growing risk of a jobless underclass as digitalisation takes hold, unsustainable global debt and demographics shifts. All of these challenges require tackling the economic structures of work, health and education. In her recent book ‘How Boards Work', Moyo addresses the levers and limitations boards have to create change across the business landscape. She poses questions around their purpose, around how they should balance profit motives with growing broader expectations of society and how they should approach quotas as they look to address diversity.Against the backdrop of a global drive for inclusive economic recovery from the pandemic, the challenges of transitioning to net zero, a rise of protectionism and new and emerging technologies, this event will consider how the future of capitalism will be shaped in the coming years and what role corporations should play when it comes to levelling up.

Scandals and malpractice at companies like GE, Theranos and WeWork have raised justified questions among regulators, shareholders, and the public about the quality of corporate governance.

Bill Gates mansplains economic expert Dr. Dambisa Moyo about her book Dead Aid and gets humiliated. And lastly, the poor vaccine injured victims suffer in silence while the wealthy receive compensation.
In our first episode of 2021, we invited an all star panel of development experts - including UNICEF's Henrietta Fore, economist and author Dambisa Moyo, Save the Children's Kevin Watkins, and the World Bank's Axel van Trotsenburg - to share what's worked, what hasn't, and what's next when it comes to the COVID-19 response.
Global economist and author Dambisa Moyo studies the intersection of geopolitics, business, and economics in an increasingly unstable world. Moyo serves on the board of Barclays Bank, she has advised more than a few fortune 500 companies, and was named by TIME Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. In her free time, she likes to relax by running marathons. I'll ask her about her increasingly bleak views on the future of the global economy.
