Afghanistan is on the brink of becoming the world's worst humanitarian emergency. Western governments responded to the Taliban takeover in August by suspending aid, freezing state assets and imposing stringent sanctions regimes. The country's economy was plunged into freefall as a result. Government salaries remain unpaid, the financial sector has collapsed and cash is in short supply. Millions of the country's civilians struggle to access basic necessities and feed their families. The UN has already warned that half the country's citizens are suffering from extreme hunger. Things only look set to get worse as winter sets in. This week on Hold Your Fire! Richard Atwood and Naz Modirzadeh talk to Crisis Group's Afghanistan expert Graeme Smith about this crisis and the responsibility shouldered by Western governments. They talk about the Taliban's refusal to do much in the way of compromise on draconian policies so far, especially limiting education for girls and women, curtailing women's right to work and shunning demands for political inclusion. They discuss the dilemma facing Western governments, Washington's status as an economic gatekeeper, the role played by the Europeans and how Afghanistan's neighbours have responded to the Taliban takeover. They ask what Western policymakers, particularly in Washington, should do to help humanitarian organisations operate effectively and alleviate the looming emergency.For more information, explore Crisis Group's analysis on our Afghanistan page and keep an eye out for our upcoming report.

Julie Bradley was born with adventure travel genes and shares some of her stories about sailing around the world with her husband, Glen. After twenty years in the Army as a Military Intelligence Officer she traded in her uniform and worldly possessions to pursue the dream that had inspired her to keep going through the long separations of military deployments. They “pay back” by performing volunteer disaster response and humanitarian work for the American Red Cross, serving as members of an International Emergency Response Unit. https://www.juliebradleyauthor.com/

Mariah Mansvelt Beck always aimed to have a positive impact on the world. This led her to working for Doctors without Borders - at headquarters as well as in the field - to being a social worker as well as to giving yoga and meditation classes - something she still does. When Mariah was 30 she found out she was developing cervical cancer. This sparked an interest in her health and led her together with friend Wendelien Hebly to realize no ingredients were listed on the packaging of regular tampons, pads and liners. Together they started Yoni. Yoni is a fem care brand aiming to break open the taboo around menstruation and to provide healthy, sustainable alternatives to regular fem care. They now have organic cotton tampons, pads and liners as well as more sustainable options like the menstrual cup and period proof underwear. For more information check out https://www.yoni.care Interview Questions - what did you want to be when you grew up? - so tell me about your company, work now. - in times of robotization, polarization, AI; what keeps us, humans, on the right track when it comes to work that we value? (you may also make this personal, so what keeps YOU on the right track)? - what did you have to learn most, to get there? - what do you think future proof companies/leaders need, when it comes to capabilities or strategies? (fx. they need to dare and take risks in increasing uncertainty, or they need to become more inclusive) - do you have a book, or a podcast or film or quote that inspires you a lot and that you could share with our listeners? Show Notes Ever considered to slow down, on your leadership journey? In this episode, Mariah Mansvelt Beck - cofounder of fem care company Yoni - argues that pausing may be a key future capability - to pause, before making a decision, but also to lower your pace on busy days. Or even: creating more space in your life. She practices what she preaches: after launching a company that would radically change the field of fem care, she now only works for Yoni 2 days, allowing more space for teaching Yoga, enjoying motherhood and inspiring change on many levels. Roanne and Mariah discuss: - Why chemicals are not for pussies - How her health situation inspired her to start a fem care company - Her background: from humanitarian, to care worker, to entrepreneur - Why Yoni does not believe in fixed office times - Why silence is scary - Which meditation helps her through confrontational meetings and challenges Mariah tips the 6 faces meditation: https://www.mindvalley.com/learn-meditation/ and Martha Beck books: https://marthabeck.com/books/

In this episode, I invited my friend Branden Carter to talk about his experience of transitioning from being an architect to being a developer and how can we as an industry do better in terms of getting more young people to join commercial real estate and think outside the box of what goes into the design and development process. Branden and I share many ideas about what makes a development project great other than just looking at the spreadsheet and pencil down the numbers. There are so many other aspects within a development project such as design, humanity, sustainability, it's impact in the neighborhood, and connectivity to the community. I think these elements are important and should be addressed more in our industry.

“Hard-working is definitely in my DNA. I learned that from my mom and my dad growing up. My dad always seemed like the hardest working guy that I knew, but that's a double-edged sword, that's really a double-edged sword. When I don't want to be present, in certain situations with people, family, friends, I bury myself in work. And I guess that's a way of hiding and running from what's really going on in front of me. And that has been the biggest struggle for me - to slow down and stop burying myself into work.” - Chris Harrigfeld Ever Forward Club's Ashanti Branch is joined by Chris Harrigfeld. Chris works very hard building incredible custom cars, using models and parts from the 30s through the 70s. But, in true Taking Off The Mask fashion, Ashanti and Chris focus on how the hard work relates to Chris's emotions and identity, rather than the cars themselves. Ashanti and Chris know each other from men's groups, so they are used to getting vulnerable, and they hit the ground running in this episode. Ultimately, they both make progress in breaking cycles of masculinity that have existed since their childhoods, and they give themselves permission to realize their best and truest selves. (2:50) Ashanti's introduction. (6:20) Chris introduces himself - a father, caretaker, humanitarian, and car builder, who loves to connect and find similarities with all people. (9:20) Chris shares the front of his mask - loving, hard worker, gentleman, warrior, empathic - and how he is working on taking care of himself emotionally and physically. Then, he and Ashanti reflect on how their childhood has shaped and continues to shape who they are. (18:00) Ashanti shares the front of his mask - excited, dedicated, intense - and how the front helped him navigate the uncertainty of 2020. (23:35) Ashanti shares the back of his mask - worrier, doubt, seeking permission - and the “mind games” he plays with himself. Then, Ashanti shares how he is seeking permission from himself, rather than the outside world. (33:40) Chris shares the back of his mask - I do not have it all together, depression, unsure, insecure - and how he wants to provide his grandchildren the childhood he didn't have. (44:30) Chris shares how you can get in touch with him. --- Connect with Chris Harrigfeld: Facebook: facebook.com/cthotrods Instagram: instagram.com/ct_hot_rods --- Create your own mask anonymously at www.100kmasks.com If you are interested in being on the Face to Face podcast, email us at everforwardclub@gmail.com --- Connect with Ashanti Branch: Instagram: instagram.com/branchspeaks Facebook: facebook.com/BranchSpeaks Twitter: twitter.com/BranchSpeaks LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch Website: branchspeaks.com --- Send in a voice message: anchor.fm/branch-speaks/message

A parliamentary inquiry has heard orphans and widows whose families worked with Australia, remain in hiding in Afghanistan waiting for visas.

BIO: Jimmy Lee is a Venture Builder and Humanitarian. STORY: Jimmy and his partner got into a partnership with two other businesses for a huge project that would bring them big returns. One of the businesses wanted Jimmy to collude with them and kick the third company out of the project. He refused and got cut out of the project, losing everything he had invested in it. LEARNING: Get your downpayment at the start of the project. When you receive help, pay it forward.   “If you have a firm belief in yourself, and you know what you want to do, you should go for it. Things will come into place eventually.”Jimmy Lee  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jimmyleefoodieboxgroup/ (Jimmy Lee) is a Venture Builder and Humanitarian. Believe in yourself, and you can make the impossible possible! Worst investment everJimmy was introduced to entrepreneurship by chance by a friend. He went into it without experience, capital, or contacts—just a law degree and an idea. His first startup was a creative agency doing motion videos. Within four years, he grew the business into a multi-million business. The year 2007 was a very great year for Jimmy and his business partner because they got two huge projects. They were engaged as a contractor for the celebration of the 50th anniversary of Malaysia. Their job was to project the first prime minister in a hologram. The following year, everything fell apart. Jimmy's company got into a partnership with two other companies. Jimmy got called for a secret meeting with one of the companies and was told not to inform the other company. He went for the meeting with his partner out of curiosity. The value of the project was about 4.5 million Malaysian ringgit. The other company wanted to sideline the third company and divide the profit between their company and Jimmy's. Jimmy and his partner said no to that idea because it was unethical. A week later, Jimmy's company got terminated from the project. All the payments he was supposed to receive had been pending due diligence, and now he couldn't get paid. He lost everything overnight. They had focused on that one huge project for the past few months, and many resources went to it. Lessons learnedDon't give up even when you face failure and other hurdles. Get your downpayment money at the onset of the project. Andrew's takeawaysPeople do help people sometimes out of the blue. Once somebody has helped you out of the blue, you have an obligation to pay that forward. Actionable adviceContinue exploring opportunities and learn from your failures and be better. From that, you can do something even bigger. No. 1 goal for the next 12 monthsJimmy's number one goal for the next 12 months is to set up a venture fund in Singapore. The venture will fund projects focused entirely on food, technology, and social enterprise. Parting words  “Do things that are out of the box. Don't be afraid because sometimes it's just internal fear. So be bold and mighty force will come to your aid.”Jimmy Lee  [spp-transcript]   Connect with Jimmy Leehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jimmyleefoodieboxgroup/ (LinkedIn) https://twitter.com/jimmyleebg (Twitter) https://foodiebox.group/ (Website) Andrew's bookshttps://amzn.to/3qrfHjX (How to Start Building Your Wealth Investing in the Stock Market) https://amzn.to/2PDApAo (My Worst Investment Ever) https://amzn.to/3v6ip1Y (9 Valuation Mistakes and How to Avoid Them) https://amzn.to/3emBO8M (Transform Your Business with Dr.Deming's 14 Points) Andrew's online programshttps://valuationmasterclass.com/ (Valuation Master Class) https://academy.astotz.com/courses/how-to-start-building-your-wealth-investing-in-the-stock-market (How to Start Building Your Wealth Investing in the Stock Market) https://academy.astotz.com/courses/finance-made-ridiculously-simple (Finance Made Ridiculously Simple) https://academy.astotz.com/courses/gp (Become a Great Presenter and Increase Your Influence)...

Can Christianity survive in the Middle East? Ancient communities of Christian faithful are currently being decimated not just by religious violence, persecution, and war—but the economic factors that motivate emigration and refuge. Janine Di Giovanni is an award-winning journalist and war correspondent, and is Senior Fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs. She joins Evan Rosa to discuss her journalistic style and approach to human rights reporting, the alarming decimation of the Christian population in the Middle East, the difference between survival and flourishing, and what it means to adapt to being an outsider. Her latest book is The Vanishing: Faith, Loss, & the Twilight of Christianity in the Land of the Prophets.This episode was made possible in part by the generous support of the Tyndale House Foundation. For more information, visit tyndale.foundation.From the Introduction (Evan Rosa):There are many ways to be a journalist in our noisy digital commons. And likely, there's a place for them all, but everyone—whether writer or reader—needs to ask: What is a journalist for? Presenting the truth, spreading knowledge, yes. But reporting for mere awareness pushes the question all the more for us news junkies, hooked on headlines replete with bad news.My guest today sees journalism as an endeavor of human empathy—recording the truth not from embassies or palaces or political centers, but from the leaky tents of refugee camps; telling stories not of the powerful politicians and generals executing a war, but the widows and orphans caught up in the chaos; publishing news and correspondence not to feed the insatiable news gluttony of American media, but to give voice to the voiceless.Show NotesThe Vanishing: Faith, Loss, & the Twilight of Christianity in the Land of the ProphetsHow Janine Di Giovanni became a "human rights reporter"Palestinian occupation and intifadaBosnian WarWar is not about religion or tribe, but powerEmbedded within a communityGiving voiceExpressing agencyThe Vanishing: Documenting Christian communities before they disappearDi Giovanni's personal faith and commitment to neighbor loveCoats on the BoweryJournalistic style: bringing the reader close"If you have the ability to go to these places and bring the story to other people, then you have the obligation."Confusion, frustration, fearWar makes life change in an instantPerspective-taking, empathy, and compassion"Celebrating the fact that we still exist."Christian persecution around the worldThe purpose of The Vanishing: to honor the people who have decided to stay, even amidst persecutionPope Francis's trip to Iraq during covid, for solidarity"Emigration is our enemy."Good refugees vs bad refugeesChaldean Christian Iraqis chanting in AramaicFaith rooted in the landAdapting to being an outsider vs adapting to being an insiderEgyptian Coptic ChristiansCourage to be a stranger in a strange landWhat is a life worth living?Production NotesThis podcast featured journalist and war correspondent Janine Di GiovanniEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Martin Chan, Nathan Jowers, Natalie Lam, and Logan LedmanA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

An exploration of how climate change is impacting the sport we love and what others are individually doing to change it. This bonus episode is a collaboration with the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), for World Humanitarian Day (WHD) 2021 to bring awareness to the critical conversations happening right now. First, through the storytelling of Fernanda Maciel on how she left her job as an environmental lawyer and now annually creates her “white flow” campaigns; a combination of incredible feats of running to drive awareness and enact change focused on environmental sustainability. Next, a discussion with Marinel Ubaldo, a climate justice activist from the Philippines who tells the story of how the devastation of Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 impacted her community and the realities that global climate change is negatively impacting the world's most vulnerable communities. Then, we'll do a breakdown and call to action on how you can take immediate next steps on being an active participant in being a running climate activist. Meet the guests: Fernanda Maciel Athlete ambassador for #TheHumanRace, the 2021 WHD global climate action challenge One time winner, nine time competitor in TDS Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc Top 5 in SkyRunning World Championship Top 3 in the World Ranking in 2018/2019 Practiced as an environmental lawyer and helped with outdoor education through Outward Bound International scheme Founder of White Flow, completing iconic runs which promote environmental and social issues around the world Marinel Ubaldo Advocate for climate justice and the environment One of the founders of the Youth Leaders for Environmental Action Federation, a youth-led organization based in Eastern Visayas that aims to mentor youth individuals and organizations in climate advocacy Has spoken to world leaders on behalf of Filipinos during the opening of the UNFCCC COP 21 in Paris and in UNFCCC COP 25 in Madrid Her global campaign with Amnesty International calling on the Philippine government to ensure relocation of Super-Typhoon Haiyan survivors generated 528,070 actions from around the world Calls to action: Engage in COP26- read about climate change, learn about it, share about it, talk about it with people you know. The more we talk about it, the better. Check out the UN Foundation initiative sayitwithscience.org(although remember we want to keep the humanity in with our education, facts don't always work) Consider empathy by proximity, how can you connect yourself to people who are going through this to get motivated to take action- donate to Marinel's Go Fund Me to support her journey and other front line climate activists Believe in and affirm the concept of individual accountability.

You probably know Jenna Bush Hager as Hoda's co-host on TODAY with Hoda & Jenna. As you'll hear, they're so friendly on air because they're real friends off-air — and their friendship has only grown and deepened over the years. And because this podcast has been about friendship and wisdom, there's no better way to bring it all home than with a girlfriend. For our last episode of Season One, we invite you into an intimate conversation, touching on everything from lessons learned by example during childhood to what it means for Jenna to turn 40. Together, Hoda and Jenna talk about birth, love, loss and the importance of work ethic. Plus, a special look back at the highlights and moments that touch on what Hoda is finally making space for.

Christian ‘Boo' Boucousis is an entrepreneur, business owner and executive leadership and performance coach. At the age of 19 he was recruited into the Royal Australian Air Force as a pilot and completed over 11 years as an elite fighter pilot; one of only 400 trained over a 38-year period. The product of a $15 million dollar training program, Boo reached the pinnacle of his career as a Squadron Leader, before his medical discharge for a chronic auto immune disorder known as Ankylosing Spondylitis. At 30 Boo made a life changing decision, boarding a commercial flight to Kabul Afghanistan, where he founded CTG Global, a Humanitarian business delivering projects on behalf of United Nations agencies. Over a period of three years Boo cut his business teeth in one of the world's most demanding, challenging and dangerous environments on the planet, successfully growing the business until its sale four years later. Today CTG is a multi-million-dollar company with operations spanning the globe. I enjoyed this chat with the very-high-energy Boo and it's fair to say, I may have needed a lie down after we were done. Enjoy.

The producers of Waterman, a new documentary on the life of Kahanomoku, talk about the film in the ATR podcast. Five-time Olympic medalist and Native Hawaiian Duke Paoa Kahanamoku shattered records and brought surfing to the world while overcoming a lifetime of personal challenges. Waterman explores his journey and legacy as a legendary swimmer, trailblazer, and the undisputed father of modern-day surfing, following the sport's first-time inclusion in this year's Games – a fitting tribute to his work promoting the sport around the globe. Narrated by Jason Momoa, this original documentary by Sidewinder Films features commentary from surfing's biggest stars, including newly-crowned Olympic gold medalist Carissa Moore, while also delving into his personal successes, struggles and humanitarianism through rare footage, contemporary visuals and incisive interviews. Through Duke's incredible athletic accomplishments, personal doctrine of Aloha, and enduring gift of surfing to the world, the film explores a theme that still resonates today – the role of sports in breaking societal barriers – and celebrates his triumphs and philosophy of inclusion, challenging us all to embrace diversity and incorporate Aloha into our own lives.

“I've seen horrible things. I've seen massacres. Human suffering. These are not easy sights to see. The best way I found to deal with that is just to be determined to fix it in some fashion.”   UN Humanitarian Coordinator and Resident Coordinator for Yemen David Gressly has seen some of the worst of man's inhumanity to man during a career of more than 40 years in peacekeeping, humanitarian assistance and development. In this episode, he talks with podcast host Melissa Fleming about what has driven him to devote his life to helping the most vulnerable in some of the most fragile places on earth.    With more than 20 million people in need of assistance and a seven-year ongoing war, Yemen is among the world's worst humanitarian crises. But it's not just conflict that threatens the Yemeni people. As David explains, every three days someone is injured or even killed by landmines or unexploded ordnance. During this eye-opening conversation, David shares his concerns about the dire situation in Yemen and the likelihood of being able to sustain the humanitarian response in the year ahead.

In this exclusive sneak peek at Sounds Like Hate's third season, we travel to the deadliest border crossing in the nation, along the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona, where undocumented migrants are crossing in record numbers. Humanitarian organizations are attempting to help the migrants, venturing into the Sonoran Desert to distribute food and water – but groups of vigilantes are patrolling the same territory, trying to catch them. While these extremists are not sanctioned by the government, some U.S. Border Patrol agents look the other way or even work in partnership with them.

Wallace, and guests Dr. Lawana Firyali Richmond, & Quantal Langford.All parties involved in the event spent the night exposing their privilege and utilizing their talent to bring attention and awareness to a community in plight; us. We are far removed from the natural ability to live a life of health, love and interaction without the encumbrance and interference of a capitalistic system they charge us for human rights. We discussed the parallels to an antiquated monarch system, of kings and beggars, touched on the connections between all of us as humans, and denounced stigmas applied to individuals that are journeying through an unprivileged life. We undressed the erroneous nature of limited resources, and concentrated on the different methods that we as individual representatives of the community; can implement to become ambassadors of Humanity.Musicians in order of appearance on the recording:Sojirn: https://www.instagram.com/so.jirn/kaigetsu: https://www.instagram.com/kaigetsu.s/Mikayla Torres: https://www.instagram.com/hesh.mama/Kizzy Satchel: https://www.instagram.com/africanvirgo/Thank you to each one of the revolutionary talented artists that helped to create and pulled off a beautiful Humanitarian event.Cameron Rea: https://www.instagram.com/cambamgrandslam/ Quantal Langford: https://www.instagram.com/quantallangford/​Xzayvion: https://www.instagram.com/xisle.jp/Jeridel Banks: https://www.instagram.com/blackbearcatpress/Lee Brown: https://www.instagram.com/vampirevictim/Jesse Owens:https://www.instagram.com/jesseowins/​S.M.

Are the challenges of humanitarian protection more complex today than they were 20 years ago? And is a protection system that emerged after World War II still fit for purpose? In this conversation, Migration Policy Institute Co-Founder Kathleen Newland and Senior Policy Analyst Susan Fratzke discuss the challenges, but also the innovations in the refugee resettlement and asylum spaces, as countries around the globe cope with record displacement, mixed migration, climate pressures, and more.

Humanitarian crises from around the world, attributed to various causes such as war and climate change, have resulted in the displacement of millions of people worldwide. Some of these displaced individuals journey to other countries, such as Canada, to settle and start new lives. However, a refugee's journey doesn't end once they arrive in their new home, they must navigate a new system to access housing, healthcare, and education, while potentially facing numerous barriers along the way. In this episode of Raw Talk, we interview experts to gain a Canadian perspective on the unique health experience of refugees, and the resettlement process for refugees living in Canada. Steve Meagher discusses who refugees are and the barriers they face to accessing healthcare services in Canada. Dr. Praseedha Janakiram sheds light on the diversity of refugees and their journeys from leaving their homeland to settling into a new life. Dr. Meb Rashid speaks to the routine health issues that refugee families face and how primary and community healthcare is tailored to those needs.
