On this week's program, we bring you a vital community conversation about "War and Climate Change" hosted by Covering Climate Now on May 29th, 2024. In this conversation, we explore how conflict, war, and climate change are connected. Violent conflicts in Gaza, Ukraine, and elsewhere are not only causing terrible human suffering, they are fueling the climate crisis. This press briefing laid out the connections between war, conflict, and climate change. War — and military operations in general — have a massive carbon footprint that is often overlooked. Meanwhile, the immense emissions of the world's militaries are excluded from limits imposed under UN climate agreements. At the same time, extreme weather and other climate impacts can kindle armed conflict — both within nations as people from drought-stricken rural communities migrate to cities and between nations. Our panel will explore all this and more. The panel included: Neta C. Crawford, Montague Burton Professor, University of Oxford and Co-Director, Costs of War Rawan Damen, Director General, Arab Reporters for Investigative Journalism Ellie Kinney, Campaigner Coordinator, Conflict and Environment Observatory Moderator: Giles Trendle, co-chair of CCNow's steering committee and the former managing director of Al Jazeera English. Perhaps most challenging for journalists is that war makes it hard to talk about the climate crisis in the first place. When guns and bombs are killing people, “the tyranny of the immediate” pushes war to the top of the news agenda. Covering Climate Now is a global journalism collaboration, co-founded by Columbia Journalism Review and The Nation magazine, encouraging more and better climate coverage.

En Estados Unidos un grupo de destacados ejecutivos de compañías tecnológicas fueron nombrados tenientes coroneles en la Reserva del Ejército y pasaron a integrar un nuevo “Cuerpo Ejecutivo de Innovación”: ¿Qué implica que sean oficiales militares en lugar de que se lo contratara como asesores? ¿Cuáles son las implicancias éticas de esa vinculación o qué uso puede llegar a haber de los datos de los ciudadanos en tiempos de guerra?

In this episode of SCW for Pharma, Evren Ozkaya welcomes Adrian Van den Hoven, Director General of Medicines for Europe, the leading voice for generic and biosimilar manufacturers across the continent.The conversation begins by underscoring the essential role generics and biosimilars play in Europe's healthcare system — making up around 90% of prescriptions but only 20% of total costs. Adrian explains how these medicines significantly expand access while easing the burden on patients and insurers. However, despite their public health value, low profit margins have led to a fragile and highly consolidated market — one responsible for two-thirds of medicine shortages across Europe, a trend also seen in the U.S.Evren and Adrian explore how geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, and stringent environmental regulations are putting additional pressure on the sector. While EU authorities are assessing ways to strengthen local supply, current pricing models offer little incentive for generic manufacturers to invest in capacity or modernization. Today, 70% of manufacturing investment goes toward maintaining compliance, leaving only 30% for productivity, agility, or innovation — eroding Europe's competitiveness against countries like China and India.Digital transformation surfaces as a crucial lever — not just to improve efficiency but also to combat labor shortages and build greater resilience. Yet Adrian notes that digital maturity in EU pharma remains low, with many factories still running on paper and Excel. Still, the opportunity is enormous. As Evren highlights, PwC estimates that AI could potentially double EBITDA for pharma, especially through manufacturing and supply chain use cases. But he also cautions that most companies aren't ready to harness AI due to weak data infrastructure. Without high-quality, real-time operational data, AI delivers poor results — “garbage in, garbage out.”The episode concludes with a look ahead. Adrian stresses that Europe has the skilled workforce to lead in digital transformation, but regulatory support and targeted funding are essential. Strategic partnerships — like the one between SCW.AI and Medicines for Europe — can help bridge the gap. Evren and Adrian close by previewing their upcoming meeting in Brussels with the European Commission, generic pharma manufacturers, and technology providers — a collaborative push to showcase ROI, align stakeholders, and accelerate digital transformation across the industry.

In this episode of the WW2 Podcast, I am joined by Professor James Crossland to discuss the extraordinary life of Robert Bruce Lockhart — a British diplomat, journalist, author, and secret agent. Though not a household name, Lockhart was a key figure behind the scenes of 20th-century history. His career began before the First World War and took him from revolutionary Russia to wartime Britain, often placing him near the centre of power and influence. During the Second World War, he served as Director-General of the Political Warfare Executive, the organisation responsible for coordinating all British propaganda efforts against the Axis powers. Lockhart's life reads like a spy thriller, full of intrigue, diplomacy, and covert operations. James Crossland, author of Rogue Agent: From Secret Plots to Psychological Warfare – The Untold Story of Robert Bruce Lockhart, sheds light on the man whose influence was far greater than his fame. patreon.com/ww2podcast

The Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Simon Harris TD and Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless TD, today jointly secured Government approval of the final steps for Ireland to join the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, CERN. The Tánaiste said: "Associate Membership of CERN will demonstrate Ireland's commitment to science and reaffirm our reputation as a centre for scientific investment. It will create opportunities for Irish researchers, students and industry to join world-class teams at CERN, and it will give CERN access to Ireland's talent and expertise." Minister Lawless said: "Having personally advocated for Ireland's Associate Membership of CERN for a long time, it is a pleasure to officially announce that Ireland will join CERN in October this year. Today's Cabinet approval is a milestone which authorises the final legal steps." Following today's decision, the Taoiseach signed a Government Order to enable the State to meet its obligations under the CERN Protocol on Privileges and Immunities. The remaining steps are now for Ireland to notify the Director-General of CERN that the internal approval procedures for the Associate Membership Agreement are complete, and to deposit an Instrument of Accession to the CERN Protocol on Privileges and Immunities with UNESCO. Following a mandatory waiting period, Ireland's Associate Membership is expected to begin officially in October. Minister Lawless continued: "Associate Membership of CERN is a long-standing national ambition and a commitment in the Programme for Government. However, joining CERN is only the beginning of Ireland's journey. It is a priority for me as Minister to ensure Ireland's success as an Associate Member State. "My Department will establish an expert advisory group in the coming months to guide our national approach to CERN membership. This group will work with my Department to maximise benefits for both Ireland and CERN." Associate Membership of CERN will bring benefits to Ireland across research, industry, skills, science outreach, and international relations.

The BBC and STARMER Are FINISHED – Here's Why #JonGaunt #BBC #KeirStarmer #Glastonbury #RaceHate #ReformUK Both organisations are hopelessly out of touch with the British population with their Anti Trump bias, Anti Israel , small boats, immigration, Muslim rape gangs inquiry and disdain for patriotism. Jon Gaunt says that the Glastonbury race hate scandal has put the nail in their coffin. They are both in thrall to Reform UK and Nigel Farage and have no policies of their own. Tim Davie the Director General must resign or be sacked today. Starmer has not only lost the country but clearly also his own party with the MPs rebellion on Welfare reforms. Starmer is Prime minister in name only. Let's ‘DEPORT' both of these useless so-called Leaders.

Africa is undergoing a health funding crisis due to overreliance on external aid and a lack of internal investment from African governments. The healthcare sector is 95 percent dependent on external aid for crucial commodities: vaccines, medication, and diagnostic equipment. Africa saw a 41 percent rise in public health emergencies in 2024, highlighting the vulnerability of the health infrastructure. In response to these challenges, the Africa Center for Disease Control (CDC) released a concept paper titled: Africa's Health Financing in a New Era. In this concept paper, the Africa CDC introduces innovative financing measures to bridge the funding gap. Mvemba is joined by Dr. Jean Kaseya, Director-General of the Africa CDC, to discuss the importance of good governance, private sector investment, and strategic planning in strengthening Africa's domestic resource mobilization.
