In this episode, we are joined by Elie Hassenfeld, Co-Founder and CEO of GiveWell to discuss how data, transparency, and moral trade-offs can guide charitable giving with maximum impact. Elie brings his background in finance and philosophy to the world of global philanthropy—explaining how GiveWell rigorously evaluates programs to determine which ones save or improve lives most effectively. We explore how GiveWell assesses cost-effectiveness, why transparency is a core organizational value, and how moral weights shape grantmaking priorities. Elie also opens up about the challenges of running a high-stakes nonprofit that directs nearly $400 million annually, why global health interventions are often overlooked by traditional donors, and how they navigate philosophical dilemmas like saving a life versus doubling someone's income. This conversation blends finance, ethics, and effective altruism into a compelling framework for anyone who wants to do the most good with their giving.   Key Points From This Episode:   (0:01:00) Why charitable giving is a financial decision—and why it deserves evidence-based thinking. (0:02:20) GiveWell's mission: Using rigorous research to direct donor funds where they'll do the most good. (0:03:44) How Elie's frustration with vague charity claims led him to co-found GiveWell in 2007. (0:08:35) The scope of impact: GiveWell's 80-person team now directs ~$395M annually. (0:10:43) The weight of responsibility: Why directing hundreds of millions of dollars is both gratifying and stressful. (0:12:22) Radical transparency: Publishing internal debates and mistakes as a matter of principle. (0:13:06) GiveWell's core values: Maximize impact, transparency, truth-seeking, and deep consideration. (0:16:25) How GiveWell differs from traditional charity evaluators (like those focused on overhead ratios). (0:18:15) The business model: GiveWell is a nonprofit funded by donors—no cut taken from giving funds. (0:21:20) Who gives: A mix of finance and tech professionals across the U.S., Canada, and the UK. (0:22:16) EA and SBF: How distancing from the effective altruism label insulated GiveWell from the fallout. (0:24:04) GiveWell's four criteria for evaluating programs: Evidence, cost-effectiveness, room for more funding, and transparency. (0:29:45) How GiveWell identifies top charities—through academic research, NGO outreach, and sector immersion. (0:31:07) Current top charities: Against Malaria Foundation, Malaria Consortium, Helen Keller Intl, and New Incentives. (0:34:31) Why GiveWell shifted to global poverty after early comparisons showed massive cost-effectiveness differences. (0:39:24) Why the cost to save a life is higher than people think—nets don't reach everyone, and malaria risk is probabilistic. (0:43:27) How GiveWell measures “good”: lives saved, health improved, income increased—standardized into one metric. (0:46:47) Moral weights matter: Why GiveWell equates saving a life with doubling 100 families' income. (0:50:37) Where moral weights come from: surveys, literature, and direct community input from Kenya and Ghana. (0:53:44) Letting donors tweak the model: Tools exist to adjust for your personal moral priorities. (0:54:57) Do top charities cannibalize each other's impact? (Spoiler: Not really.) (0:56:20) Capacity assessment: How GiveWell determines how much money an organization can productively absorb. (1:00:15) Why even on-the-ground observations (like chlorine testing methods) shape their assessments. (1:01:27) Why evidence matters—especially when trying to help people you'll never meet. (1:03:55) Elie's personal definition of success: Deep relationships, personal growth, and demonstrable impact.

A new study out of Kenya shows that one of the most impactful ways to reduce infant and child mortality is to provide cash—no strings attached—to pregnant women. A randomized controlled trial by economists from UC Berkeley and Oxford University found that unconditional cash transfers reduced infant mortality by 48% and under-5 child mortality by 45% in rural Kenya. These results suggest that this intervention is as impactful for improving child health as the provision of vaccines or antimalarial drugs. I'm joined today by Dr. Miriam Laker-Oketta, Senior Research Advisor at GiveDirectly, the nonprofit that carried out the cash transfers on which this research is based. In our conversation, Dr. Laker-Oketta explains why well-timed cash transfers to women late in pregnancy can so dramatically improve health outcomes. She also discusses how this new study adds to the growing body of evidence on the impact of unconditional cash transfers for people living in poverty in the developing world—and why such interventions are logistically simple yet politically difficult to scale.

Ever wondered how growing up between worlds can actually make you see your own culture more clearly? This conversation with Dr. Holly Berkley Fletcher flips the script on what it means to be a missionary kid—not just as someone with wild stories or an identity crisis, but as a kind of secret decoder for understanding white evangelicalism's grip on American politics. There's a moment here where a single high school banquet in Kenya, complete with a Confederate flag, opens up a whole hidden history most of us never learned in Sunday school. What if the very things you thought were just “normal” missionary experiences are actually the missing puzzle pieces for understanding the rise of Christian nationalism today? Stick around, because the connections Holly draws between global childhoods and the current culture wars in the U.S. will surprise you—and might even change how you see your own story. In this episode, you will be able to: Explore how white evangelicalism shapes political landscapes and influences key decisions that affect society. Discover the unique role missionary kids play in decoding the complexities of evangelical culture worldwide. Understand the challenges third culture kids face as they navigate identity, belonging, and faith across different worlds. Trace the historical roots of Christian nationalism to see how it impacts modern cultural and political conversations. My special guest is Dr. Holly Berkley Fletcher Holly Berkley Fletcher is an author and historian who really knows what it means to live between worlds. Raised in Kenya as the daughter of Southern Baptist missionaries, Holly attended Rift Valley Academy and grew up balancing both her American roots and the culture around her. Her background extends far beyond childhood, though—she earned a PhD in American Studies, taught at the university level, and later worked as a CIA analyst specializing in Africa. Holly's life as a third culture kid gives her a distinctive lens on white evangelicalism and Christian nationalism, while her research dives into how missionary kids navigate the complicated push and pull of belonging and identity. She brings a clear-eyed, honest perspective that connects personal experience with bigger questions about faith, power, and the impact of evangelical culture around the globe.

It's Tuesday, August 26th, 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 Kevin Swanson Women in India raped, murdered, and secretly buried A temple maintenance man in India is under arrest, after he testified of hundreds of women who were allegedly raped, murdered, and secretly buried around the small religious town of Dharmasthala. The BBC reports that nearly 100 bone fragments of human remains have already been found at two spots the man identified. The employee says he worked for the temple administration between 1995 and 2014, when he was allegedly coerced into burying the bodies. In 2025, 950 attacks on Christians in India For the first five months of 2025, Open Doors reports 950 attacks on Christians in India, which accounts for a rate of 2,300 per year. According to this reliable source, “These incidents included attacks, threats to abandon the Christian faith, excommunication, social boycotts, halting prayer services and church closures. Throughout India, 200 cases have been filed against pastors and believers based on fabricated conversion allegations.” India rated as the worst in The Worldview's international morality index  -- or the Evil Index -- released last month. India rated high in persecuting Christians, corruption perceptions, as well as supporting abortion and homosexuality. Most evil nations vs. Best behaved nations The highest rated nations for immorality were India, North Korea, Mexico, Columbia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Somalia, Nicaragua, China, and Nigeria. Best nations on the list were Armenia, Eastern European nations, Israel, Japan, and Singapore. Among European nations, Russia, Greenland, and Belgium were rated poorly. Switzerland and Ireland rated best on this International Morality Index.  The nation of Chile lost the most ground over the last eight years. The country was rated at the top of the morality index eight years ago, and has dropped to the 66th position, due largely to approving abortion in 2017, and adopting homosexual faux-marriage in 2022.   The International Morality Index considers nations on the basis of the sixth, seventh, and eighth commandments of God's law as well as the persecution of Christians.  John 1:29 says, “But let us remember, this is why Jesus came. . . John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, ‘Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!'” Kenyan pro-lifers object to Bill Gates' abortion kill pills Kenyan pro-lifers have issued a petition addressed to Kenya's Ministry of Health, complaining of IPAS Africa Alliance's distribution of abortion kill pills throughout the country.   The petition accuses IPAS of breaking Kenya's laws, and flooding schools and pharmacies with the kill pill.   The Citizen Go petition notes that “Kenya's laws protect unborn life, but IPAS is exploiting loopholes. They hand out abortion pills without scans, prescriptions, or medical supervision.” IPAS Africa Alliance is reportedly funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Mexican drug cartel leader pled guilty “Be sure your sins will find you out.” That's what Number 32:23 warns. The founder of the largest drug cartel in the world, Mexican cartel kingpin Isamel “El Mayo” Zambada, pled guilty to federal charges yesterday, reports the Associated Press. He is charged with organizing a drug smuggling operation into the US, called the Sinaloa cartel.   His partner Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was found guilty of similar charges in 2019. The Mexican Sinoloa cartel is known for assassinations, tortures, and kidnappings — terrorizing parts of the southern border areas of Mexico and Texas. Today, first time home purchase costs double rent For the first time in almost 20 years, the price of buying an entry-level home is double the expense of renting. Austin, Denver, Las Vegas, and Phoenix are some of the worst places for unaffordable properties for first-time buyers. 5% of Canadian deaths due to euthanasia Canada's Doctor Assisted Deaths now account for 5% of total deaths for the nation — more than the deaths attributed to diabetes and Alzheimer's combined.   Persons suffering solely from some sort of mental illness will be able to gain state medical help to kill themselves on March 17, 2027. In related news, the United Kingdom Bill on euthanasia has passed the House of Commons, and now has been presented to the House of Lords. United Kingdom legislature to dismiss jail time for violent offenders And finally, the United Kingdom government has come up with a plan to reduce prison overcrowding by dismissing jail time altogether for thousands of sex offenders, drug dealers, and violent criminals. The Sentencing Bill will be considered next month by parliament, reports The Times.  Exodus 22:1  provides God's wisdom in such matters. “If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and slaughters it or sells it, he shall restore five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 26th, 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.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Renee Blodgett, author of the book Magdalene's Journey. Novelist, curator, humanitarian, conscious business leader and modern mystic Renee Blodgett has lived multiple lives in one. Having traveled around the world, she has plenty of stories to share, from riding elephants in the Indian jungle and photographing polar bears in northern Canada to teaching English in Kenya, exploring glaciers in Iceland and selling kilims in Turkey. She has lived in eleven countries, including South Africa during Apartheid and the Gaza Strip.   Her multicultural background and years of experience as a communications strategist have led to a career of uplifting others through content, speaking, coaching and leading. Known as a master of storytelling, she has written for several magazines, blog networks, the Huffington Post, and her own award-winning online travel magazine, We Blog the World, which reaches over a half million reach globally. Her love of diversity and the visual arts has resulted in five photo books, her serving as a Travel & Leisure judge and spearheading content for TEDxUN, the only TEDx event held at the United Nations (UN).  She has also been the curator and producer of TEDxBerkeley for the last 12 years, one of the largest TEDx events in the United States.   CEO World Magazine voted her one of the most powerful women in social media, she was listed as a top social media influencer by both Forbes and the UN, and her blog has won numerous industry awards. She was selected as a top 10 Social Media Mentor by Women Online Magazine, an AlwaysOn Top 150 Business Journalist and a Shorty Awards Business Influencer finalist. A passionate photographer, she has published six photo books on nature, culture and travel. She has shot top names in the technology and entertainment industries, such as Steve Jobs, Freeman Dyson, Tony Robbins, Robin Williams, John Legend, Elvis Costello, Lionel Ritchie, John Perry Barlow, and dozens more.   Renee also co-founded Blue Soul Earth with her partner, where they help others through books, digital content, retreats and membership programs that focus on heart-centered living, universal consciousness, masculine and feminine balance, and connecting to the inherent beauty and power of our human existence. Their bestselling book Magdalene's Journey, which blends science and spirituality, invites people to re-think our patriarchal-dictated history through a pivotal woman's eyes.   In Carole's book review, she stated:   Whatever stories and teachings you've heard of Early Christianity, Magdalene's Journey by Renee Blodgett and Anthony Compagnone, a historical fiction, will make you wonder if there isn't another truth. The authors introduce us to Angelo and Rochelle, an unsuspecting married couple who loved to explore ancient and esoteric wisdom across all cultures. Little did they know they would meet two ancient souls, who would turn their lives upside down. It all began one night when the words, “My name is Miriam of Magdala,” came out of the mouth of Angelo. His voice had changed, and Rochelle responded with, “Mary Magdalene!”   Magdalene's Journey channels people who once lived and walked the planet, along with real settings in terms of time and place. This well-written narrative moves from one story to the next with accounts of the lives of Jesus of Nazareth and Mary Magdalene. It guides us through how she taught alongside Jesus, their marriage, and the water birth of their daughter Sarah.   It chronicles how the seven female apostles who travelled with Mary by sea to the north after the death and resurrection of Jesus. We learn how they dealt with finding food, clothing, and shelter, and their part in the water birth of Mary's daughter.   This page turner is like a blueprint worth studying.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Renee Blodgett Website: www.bluesoulmedia.com FB: @bluesoulearth IG: @magdalenesjourney X: @bluesoulearth LinkedIn: @Renee Blodgett   Purchase Magdalene's Journey on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/44WN0TH Ebook: https://amzn.to/473Kzju   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

The Cello Sherpa Podcast Host, Joel Dallow, interviews cellist Robert Howard. Robert is a Founder and the Co-Artistic Director, along with Rebecca Merblum, of the Kenya International Chamber Music Festival. He shares his journey growing up as a cellist in metro Atlanta, to his life of teaching and freelancing in the San Francisco bay area. After an incredibly moving trip to Kenya in 2019, Robert and Rebecca were inspired to start the Kenya International Cello Festival, which quickly morphed into a chamber music festival. Robert speaks about the impact they are making in Nairobi by teaching young musicians how to play string instruments, which have been generously donated by many organizations in the US, bringing in faculty to coach chamber music groups, training music teachers to teach the younger students, and training Kenyans how to do repairs on instruments. This is an incredibly inspiring story about how to make a difference in the lives of young students living in the slums of Nairobi, through the power of music!For more information on Robert: https://roberthowardcello.com/You can also find Robert on Instagram: @rhowardcelloFor more information on the Kenya International Chamber Music Festival: https://www.kicf.net/tourIf you are looking for in person/virtual cello lessons, or orchestral repertoire audition coachings, check out www.theCelloSherpa.comFollow us on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Bluesky @theCelloSherpaFor more information on our sponsor: www.CLEAResources.com

From Combat Zones to Community Hubs: Jake Harriman's Journey of Servant Leadership I first heard about Jake Harriman by way of his guest appearance on The Jocko Willink Podcast. Immediately I was drawn to his mission, heart and bias for action. Jake Harriman is a former US Marine Commander who spent more than a decade abroad defending our nation from enemies, terrorism and other global threats. But when Jake retired from active military duty and returned to America, in his words, he no longer recognized the nation he had spent so many years defending. Jake quickly saw that Americans were at war with one another. Rather than just lamenting this sad situation, Jake decided to do something about it, and you'll learn all about that in today's episode.   More About Our Wise Guest - Jake Harriman Jake Harriman graduated with distinction from the United States Naval Academy and served seven and a half years in the US Marine Corps as a platoon commander in both the infantry and force recon. Following his service in the military, Jake enrolled at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Following his service in the military, Jake enrolled at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. While at Stanford, he founded Nuru International to eradicate extreme poverty in the world's most unstable, vulnerable regions, to help end violent extremism.

Il y a des rencontres qui font voler en éclats toutes nos certitudes. Celle de Karine, cette pétillante suisse, en est le parfait exemple.Tout commence par la lecture d'un simple livre sur les Massaï, une curiosité anodine qui la pousse à s'envoler pour le Kenya. Et puis soudainement, sa vie bascule.Au troisième jour de son séjour, elle croise le regard d'un homme, Koitamet, un guide massaï. Son corps, dit-elle, "part alors sur la gauche". Quand il la prend dans ses bras pour la première fois, tremblant et en larmes, il murmure une phrase qui résonne encore : "Ça fait tellement longtemps que je t'attends." Une prophétie familiale, un rêve du père de Koitamet, vieux de trente ans, qui lui avait prédit une folle histoire d'amour avec une femme blanche.Aujourd'hui Karine, également mère de 3 grands garçons, partage désormais sa vie entre la Suisse et Niakara, un village massaï à quelques heures du célèbre parc Massaï Mara. Dans sa petite case en bouse de vache, sans eau courante ni électricité, elle a appris à filtrer l'eau de la rivière, à cuisiner sur un feu, à partager l'existence d'une communauté où la solitude n'existe pas. Avec Koitamet, elle a bâti un camp qui accueille aujourd'hui des voyageurs en quête d'authenticité et créé une association qui scolarise 158 enfants massaï.Entre deux continents, deux cultures que tout semble opposer, Karine n'a pourtant jamais douté. "Tout était fluide," raconte-t-elle avec sérénité.Aujourd'hui, tous ses proches ont visité ce lieu improbable où elle se sent chez elle. Ils y ont découvert une autre perception du temps, des relations humaines, de l'optimisme – "même quand les Massaï vont mal, ils vont quand même bien," sourit-elle. Un monde où l'on vit pleinement l'instant présent, ce qui peut être aussi merveilleux que frustrant quand il s'agit de gérer des projets à long terme. Dans dix ans, assure-t-elle, "je serai toujours là-bas et toujours ici." Entre un monde qui court trop vite et un autre qui prend le temps de vivre, elle a trouvé son équilibre, à cheval entre deux continents et deux conceptions de l'existence.On restera marquées longtemps par cette rencontre avec Karine et Koitamet.On espère que cet épisode résonnera longtemps en vous.Bonne écoute !Retrouvez-nous sur @beauvoyage !**************************************Production : Sakti ProductionsMusique : Chase The Mississipi, Michael ShynesVous êtes une marque et vous souhaitez collaborer avec Beau Voyage ?

La brutalité des parties belligérantes dans l'est de la RD Congo "ne connaît aucune limite", selon le directeur régional d'Amnesty international en Afrique de l'Est. Un nouveau rapport de l'ONG qui fait d'état d'atrocités, d'"exécutions sommaires de civils congolais, d'hôpitaux attaqués, de patients enlevés". Les violences pourraient s'apparenter à des crimes de guerre.

In this episode of The Via Stoica Podcast, Benny and Brendan speak with Dr. Ranjini George, a writer, teacher, and scholar who bridges the worlds of East and West. Formerly an Associate Professor of English at Zayed University in Dubai, and now teaching Creative Writing and Arts & Humanities at the University of Toronto, Dr. George brings decades of experience exploring the overlap between philosophy, literature, and lived practice.We trace her journey from growing up in India and Kenya, to teaching in Oman and Dubai, to immigrating to Canada, where she began weaving meditation, Buddhism, and Stoicism into her teaching and writing. Dr. George shares how Marcus Aurelius' Meditations and Thich Nhat Hanh's writings became constant companions, how Donald Robertson's How to Think Like a Roman Emperor deepened her Stoic path, and why she believes both traditions offer a daily, practical way to train the mind.The conversation explores where Buddhism and Stoicism align, in mindfulness, compassion, and resilience, and where they diverge. We talk about journaling as a form of self-inquiry, the importance of suffering “intelligently,” and what it means to pursue meaningful work without being consumed by comparison or self-cherishing. Dr. George also reflects on her books Through My Mother's Window and her works-in-progress, Blue Flowers and Miracle of Flowers, and how storytelling itself can be a philosophical act.Whether you are drawn to Buddhism, Stoicism, or simply the search for a good life, this episode offers insight into building your own philosophy of life with compassion, wisdom, and presence.You can explore Dr. Ranjini George's novel excerpt on Modern Stoicism: https://modernstoicism.com/blue-flowers-novel-excerpt-by-ranjini-george/You can also find her teaching at the University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies: https://learn.utoronto.caSupport the showhttps://viastoica.comhttps://viastoica.com/stoic-life-coachinghttps://viastoica.com/benny-vonckenhttps://viastoica.com/brendan-hoglehttps://x.com/ViaStoicainfo@viastoica.comProduced by: http://badmic.com

« Depuis le début de la semaine, la tension monte entre les FARDC, les Forces armées de la République démocratique du Congo, et la rébellion [du groupe] l'AFC/M23, l'Alliance Fleuve Congo. Les deux parties s'accusent mutuellement de violations répétées du cessez-le-feu alors que le processus de paix de Doha marque le pas » : constat établi par le site congolais Actualité CD. En effet, précise-t-il, d'un côté, « l'armée congolaise a dénoncé "l'attitude belliciste" de la coalition M23/AFC, accusée de mener de "multiples attaques" contre ses positions au Nord-Kivu et au Sud-Kivu, assorties de "massacres ciblés" de civils. » Et de l'autre, « l'AFC/M23 affirme que Kinshasa poursuit "ses manœuvres militaires offensives" en vue d'"un conflit à grande échelle", et ce malgré la signature de la Déclaration de principes du 19 juillet dernier à Doha. (…) Ces échanges de communiqués interviennent dans un contexte d'impasse diplomatique, relève encore Actualité CD. Les discussions directes prévues il y a 10 jours à Doha entre le gouvernement congolais et l'AFC/M23 n'ont pas eu lieu. Selon la médiation qatarienne, les deux parties "continuent de travailler" à la mise en œuvre de la déclaration de principes, notamment sur la création d'un mécanisme, avec la participation de la Croix-Rouge internationale, pour l'échange de prisonniers. Ce point, qui devait être réglé avant le 29 juillet, bloque la suite du processus. » Négociations au point mort Le Monde Afrique s'interroge : « Le Qatar parviendra-t-il à ramener la RDC et les rebelles de l'AFC-M23 à la table des négociations ? Alors que les parties devaient conclure un "accord de paix global" censé mettre fin aux violences qui déchirent l'est congolais au plus tard hier, 18 août, rien n'a été signé et les négociations semblent au point mort. » Et « les combats ont repris au Sud-Kivu, constate également Le Monde Afrique, notamment où le M23 est en train de conquérir des espaces dans le territoire de Walungu, au sud-ouest de la capitale régionale, Bukavu. "La seule certitude pour le moment, c'est qu'on est dans un enlisement diplomatique complet", résume Onesphore Sematumba, spécialiste de la RDC pour International Crisis Group. » Parmi les points de tension, note encore le journal, outre la question de la libération des prisonniers, il y a celle du « rétablissement de l'autorité de l'État congolais (…) : pour Kinshasa, cela signifie que le M23 doit quitter Goma et Bukavu au plus vite. Mais le mouvement rebelle s'efforce au contraire de reconstruire ce qu'il appelle un "État" dans les "territoires libérés". » À lire aussiPaix en RDC : entre restauration de l'État et projet fédéral, le bras de fer entre Kinshasa et l'AFC/M23 Coup de pression de Washington ? Afrikarabia, site spécialisé sur la RDC, résume ainsi la situation : « à Doha, Kinshasa et l'AFC/M23 n'ont pas avancé d'un iota et l'impasse des discussions se paie « cash » sur le terrain. (…) Pour débloquer la situation, deux options sont sur la table, estime Afrikarabia : un énième coup de pression de Washington, qui hésite pour l'instant à endosser le rôle du gendarme, ou bien une reprise des affrontements directs entre l'armée congolaise, qui s'est considérablement renforcée, et l'AFC/M23, qui a énormément recruté et maîtrise encore le terrain dans les zones qu'elle contrôle. Mais le temps presse. L'impasse à Doha retarde l'ensemble du processus de paix globale et la mise en œuvre de l'accord de Washington. Un blocage qui fait craindre un nouvel embrasement de l'est congolais. » Le Kenya jette un pavé dans la mare D'autant, complète Le Pays au Burkina, que « dans cette guerre sans fin qui ne dit pas encore son nom, certains pays donnent l'impression de pêcher en eaux troubles pour mieux tirer leurs marrons du brasier congolais. » En effet, relève le quotidien ouagalais, « dans ce contexte particulièrement explosif, la nomination par le Kenya d'un consul à Goma, occupée par le M23/AFC, ne passe pas aux yeux des autorités de Kinshasa qui y voient une forme de légitimation de l'occupation de la ville par les rebelles. Une situation qui pourrait exacerber les tensions avec Kinshasa qui a toujours accusé Nairobi de parti pris pour Kigali, connue pour son soutien au M23. C'est donc le lieu d'appeler la médiation internationale à redoubler d'efforts, s'exclame Le Pays, en pesant de tout son poids pour que les uns et les autres reviennent à de meilleurs sentiments et tiennent leurs engagements, pour donner une chance à la paix, afin de ne pas prolonger inutilement les souffrances des populations. »  À lire aussiPaix en RDC : l'AFC-M23 et le gouvernement congolais vont-ils reprendre le dialogue ?

Les champions se lancent en douceur ! - L'OM étouffé et battu par Rennes ! Les Olympiens redescendent sur terre, après une bonne préparation. Les Rouge et Noir d'Habib Beye ont évolué à 10 contre 11 pendant une heure, mais leur bonne organisation a frustré les hommes de De Zerbi.

Il y a cinq ans, en août 2020, le président malien Ibrahim Boubacar Keita était délogé du pouvoir par un coup d'État militaire. Moins d'un an après, le colonel Assimi Goïta a de nouveau renversé le pouvoir et est depuis à la tête du Mali. Quel bilan pour les militaires depuis leur prise de pouvoir ?

“It was just a matter of showing up and putting out whatever I had that day – and fair enough, that was my day! I don't know how it happened. I didn't expect to win. Nobody knew I was there, nobody was thinking about me. Even after the Rabat [Diamond League], I was shocked by myself!”A few months ago, Jonah Koech wasn't even supposed to be in the race. His Diamond League debut was meant to be an 800m in Rabat until a late field change bumped him out. The backup plan was to race the 1500m, an event where his personal best was 3:37.But that night in Morocco, Koech ran the race of his life, moving from 13th to 1st over the final lap, dropping a six second personal best of 3:31 and delivering one of the most improbable victories in Diamond League history. And if Rabat was the warning shot, then Eugene was the exclamation point at the U.S. Championships in just his seventh career 1500m as a pro.Koech closed in 12.49 seconds for the final 100m, nearly all of it in lane two, to win in a U.S. championship record of 3:30.17. He finished ahead of Ethan Strand and Olympic champion Cole Hocker. That's your team for the World Championships. Yared Nuguse missed the team, Hobbs Kessler missed the team. Jonah Koech did not. It's already been a winding road to get to this point, and in this episode, we talk all about it from growing up in Kenya, training alongside David Rudisha, the stops at UTEP and Texas Tech to U.S. citizenship through the Army service, injuries, a late career reinvention, and now heading to the world championships in the 1500m as a legit threat.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: Jonah Koech | @jonah_koech on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠Mentioned in this episode…Watch: USATF Championships men's 1500m final____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Straight out of Bikini Bottom, Olipop's limited edition SpongeBob cans have arrived.
