Podcasts about Humanitarian aid

In this episode of The Jason Jones Show, Jason sits down with Zainab Baqiri to discuss the Vulnerable People Project's work in Afghanistan and the women and girls still fighting for a future beyond Taliban rule. Recorded on August 26, 2026, the fifth anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing in Kabul, Jason and Zainab reflect on the chaos surrounding the fall of Afghanistan, the evacuation efforts they were involved in, and the attack that killed 13 American service members and approximately 170 Afghans. They share their personal experiences from that period and discuss the importance of remembering the Afghan allies who were left behind and the promises made to them. Jason and Zainab also discuss Flight2Future, a VPP program helping talented young Afghan women who have earned scholarships and university admissions reach countries where they can safely continue their education. The program helps cover travel and relocation costs, including the additional expense created by Taliban restrictions that often require a male family member to accompany a woman traveling outside the country. Zainab shares her own journey as a refugee now living in Germany, where she was able to pursue her master's degree with the support of a Catholic scholarship program. She reflects on how access to education, community, and opportunity helped her begin rebuilding her life. VPP is currently working to help seven young women facing urgent university deadlines through Flight2Future.

When an emergency strikes, the UN Children's Fund, UNICEF, aims to get life-saving supplies moving within 72 hours. UNICEF's emergency response includes health, water and sanitation, education and recreation kits, as well as critical support for vaccine cold chains. At its major humanitarian supply hub in Copenhagen, Denmark, emergency kits are pre-positioned and ready to be dispatched to countries affected by conflict or natural disasters. Erika Abs, UNICEF Emergency Supply and Logistics Coordinator, spoke to UN News's Felipe de Carvalho and explained why much of the most important work happens before emergencies even begin.

What does humanitarian aid really mean, and who are the people behind it? On World Humanitarian Day, we look at the different forms humanitarian work can take – from helping people affected by war and natural disasters to supporting children and vulnerable communities. The programme features among others Stanislav Bielik, Director of ADRA Slovakia; Dominika Gablíková, Head of International Humanitarian and Development Programmes at Caritas Slovakia; Zuzana Chudobová, Chair of the Board of the Slovak Foundation for UNICEF; and Katarína Barošová, Communications Manager at People in Need Slovakia.

Michael Wayne grew up in Mississippi, attended the Naval Academy, left after his father died, built a career in business and investments while running a hedge fund for fifteen years, spent twenty-five years as a clandestine CIA contractor operating across some of the most sensitive and most dangerous missions available — and then went to Ukraine after the 2022 Russian invasion to organize humanitarian aid, evacuate women and children from combat zones, train Ukrainian soldiers, and deliver equipment to the front line before discovering widespread corruption tied to Ukraine aid that he says reached powerful US politicians. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares what twenty-five years as a CIA contractor actually looked like from the inside, what changed after 9/11 in the intelligence world, what the Ukraine work actually involved, what the corruption he discovered actually implicated, and what the DOJ prosecution that followed his decision to push back against that corruption actually produced — including a wire fraud conviction, a federal prison sentence at FPC Montgomery, and what he believes was a deliberate government effort to make him a convicted felon before he could become a whistleblower. _____________________________________________  #TrueCrime #espionage #cia #prisonstory _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/ksjh06pb #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

⚜️ In this clip of the Man of Peace Podcast, Byron Rodgers with Daniela Albarran (@dani_albarran) to discuss the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, the urgent needs on the ground, and how we can respond with faith, compassion, and action. The headlines may fade, but the need remains. Families have lost their homes. Children have lost their parents. Communities are facing disease, limited medical care, unsafe living conditions, and the long road to recovery. This isn't just about responding to a disaster—it's about standing with people long after the cameras are gone. Current needs include: Hygiene supplies Antibiotics and essential medications Respiratory support and medical equipment Food and clean water Long-term humanitarian assistance for displaced families As followers of Christ, we're called to care for those in need and to be the hands and feet of Jesus. "Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." — Galatians 6:2 Please continue praying for the people of Venezuela, for the rescue teams, medical workers, volunteers, and every family affected by this tragedy. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. To see more, be sure to subscribe to the podcast at

No amount of aid can guarantee food security if humanitarian organizations are obstructed, supplies are diverted, or aid workers are threatened.

As the Iran war escalates, the world's most vital chokepoints are coming under increasing threat. Iran's disruption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has already rattled global energy markets. Now, the Houthis could obstruct things further, launching a blockade on Saudi shipping in the Red Sea, and threatening to close the Bab al-Mandeb Strait. The two narrow waterways carry not only oil and gas, but also vast quantities of food and humanitarian supplies. Carl Skau, the acting Executive Director of the World Food Programme, has travelled to many of the world's worst humanitarian hot spots, witnessing both the scale of the suffering and the difficulties of delivering aid. He joins from New York.  Also on today's show: author Colson Whitehead     Learn more about your ad choices.

In this edition, our reporters look at Haiti, which is still in the grips of a long-running battle against armed gangs in the capital and some provinces. A new international security force is being deployed but has yet to make widespread progress. Against this backdrop, the humanitarian crisis in the country is continuing to spiral. 1.5 million people are now internally displaced in Haiti and malnutrition is widespread.

Samuel Ben-Ur — Israel controls 70% of Gaza, creating a buffer zone while Hamas remains on the coast; 98% of the population resides on the Hamas-controlled side, where the group exploits humanitarian aid for revenue, and the Board of Peace proposes a "pilot zone" in Tel Sultan for non-Hamas civilians.

Two devastating earthquakes in Venezuela have left hundreds dead and thousands more without access to clean water, food and shelter; more parents are speaking out about how their children with disabilities are being excluded from participating in summer camps; drivers who use diesel instead of gasoline say they’re still paying high costs to fuel up, despite the U.S. and Iran working on a peace deal; and more.

For more than six decades, USAID sat at the centre of the global humanitarian and development system. A little over a year ago, USAID became one of the first targets of the Trump administration's DOGE campaign. Today, the hum and development sector is grappling with profound uncertainty at precisely the moment humanitarian needs are growing, especially with the rise in intrastate conflicts. What has the loss of USAID meant in practice? How are communities responding? And what does the future of international development look like in a world of shrinking aid budgets but rising humanitarian need? And joining me to discuss this is Nicholas Enrich. He served as the former top global health official at USAID's before becoming the acting assistant administrator for Global Health at USAID shortly before Trump's second presidential inauguration. On March 2 2025 he was placed on administrative leave for exposing the Trump's administration illegitimate and destructive dismantling of USAID which ended up going viral and his memo has been cited in a Supreme Court case on the legality of USAID's dissolution. While the public release of his memos were ultimately not enough to save USAID, Enrich was one of the first government officials to publicly blow the whistle on DOGE's reckless operations and inform other federal agencies of what was to come.

‘Some people question whether Ebola is real': trust is central in fighting DRC outbreakWith Strait of Hormuz crisis unresolved, world's strategic reserves hit dangerously low levels - UNECE UN aid chief Fletcher urges G7 leaders to act as millions face crisis 

Syria has been particularly hard hit by the decline in global humanitarian aid, especially from the US. In the northwest of the country, hundreds of thousands of displaced people are still living in makeshift shelters. When the Assad regime fell, they hoped to be able to return home. But on seeing their villages destroyed, most have remained stranded in camps, waiting for reconstruction that will take years. As time goes by, living conditions there are deteriorating and vital infrastructure such as hospitals are at risk of closing.

Can a $21 window help a nation survive a war? Harry Blakiston Houston, founder of Insulate Ukraine, joins Grant Gibson for this landmark 150th episode to discuss how a simple double-layer window — made from PET and manufactured entirely in Ukraine — is helping families stay warm, creating local employment, and offering a sense of normality in a country shattered by Russia's invasion. In this episode, we dive into what 'material intelligence' looks like when designing under the most extreme constraints.We discuss:Cardboard to PET: How early cardboard prototypes evolved into a $21, locally-manufactured double-layer window.Trust, Innovation and Empathy: The values driving Insulate Ukraine's work, and why they matter in a crisis.Ukraine's Civic Heroes: Celebrating the people keeping the country running.An Unlikely Origin: How the death of the Queen helped lead to the founding of Insulate Ukraine.Designing Under Fire: The particular difficulty of R&D in the humanitarian aid sector, and building an installation system from scratch.Harry also reflects on day-to-day life in a war-torn country, working with whatever materials people had to hand, growing up in Northern Ireland, how Catholicism and boarding school shaped his thinking, and why he wants to rethink the development sector altogether.Find out more and donate at insulate-ukraine.org.Explore more: Visit materialmatters.design for more on our fairs and conferences.Support the show

When it comes to humanitarian aid or assistance, or to social justice work, does the Bible put the responsibility on the church as an organization?  Or does it put the responsibility on church members as individuals or families?   Let's see what we can discover from scripture.Isaiah 58:6-7 KJVIs not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?Related Podcasts:— Standing Up Against the WrongRelated Podcasts (at TrueWisdom):— Don't Wait to Stand Up— Caring for Who God Cares ForText UsSupport the showSend questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comThe Key Principles of Effective Bible Study is a resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.  We have an extended, 24-part podcast series on these principles, and a condensed, 9-part series called God's Precious Word, that is based on the same resource.We also recommend that you check out the True Wisdom podcast which I co-host with Robert Baker -- a different format for Bible Study.Finally, check out these awesome Bible Maps!We pray that all of these resources will be very helpful to you in your Bible Studies.

It's hard to come up with new ways to describe the massive humanitarian emergency that is still unfolding in Sudan because of the war.A staggering 33 million people need help and later today, UN-backed food insecurity experts are expected to warn once again that hunger is on the rise again and famine is a real risk in 14 areas of the devastated country.Although it is extremely difficult and dangerous to access and report from Sudan's east, photographer Giles Clarke has managed to do so, with the help of the UN aid coordination office, OCHA. The result is a memorable, harrowing photo-essay that features the stories of five civilians impacted by the conflict. It's called Darfur's Survivors.

Unless a solution can be found immediately to allow fertilizers through the Strait of Hormuz in time for planting season, there's going to be a “very significant and severe” food crisis which will hit the poorest countries and their citizens hardest.That's according to Jorge Moreira da Silva, Executive Director of the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), which provides infrastructure, procurement and project management services around the world.He told Reem Abaza of UN News that the UN task force he is leading will be able to get its “one stop platform” up and running in just seven days, if combatants blocking the strait allow fertilizers and other raw material through, to benefit the world's most vulnerable.
