Welcome to The Times of Israel's Lazar Focus. Each Friday, join host diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Last week, Germany failed to secure a temporary seat on the powerful United Nations Security Council. There were several theories about the reason for Berlin's failure, but Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul offered a striking one — that it could be that Germany's support for Israel cost it the coveted seat. Germany is indeed one of Israel's closest allies in the world, and has been for decades. At the same time, the special relationship Israel enjoys with Berlin -- like its ties with other key allies -- has come under strain in the wars it has pursued in the wake of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks. In August 2025, Germany announced a partial arms embargo on Israel over its decision to conquer Gaza City. To discuss the roots and the state of the Germany-Israel relationship, German Ambassador Steffen Seibert joined the podcast, weeks before he wraps up his four-year tenure and returns to Berlin. He rejects the idea that Germany's approach to Israel is guided by "Holocaust guilt." Instead, he says that the Shoah is a compass for Germany, which has the responsibility to learn the appropriate lessons from that dark period and let them guide its foreign policy. Seibert stresses that the Germany-Israel relationship is also rooted in shared democratic values and common interests. At the same time, he emphasizes that the special relationship exists within the pre-1967 borders, and that it sees Israel's presence in the West Bank as a violation of international law. On the war in Gaza, Seibert calls Israel's military response "inevitable and logical." Still, he says, there are questions over "how it was fought, how long it was fought." Still, he says that Hamas bears the main responsibility for the plight of Gazans. Seibert explains that Germany's decision not to intervene on Israel's behalf in the ICJ genocide case against Israel is a tactical move, as Berlin faces its own charges over its support for Israel: "It changes the assessment that we took at the beginning of the conflict. It's to do with the court case that we find ourselves in." Turning to the Iran war, Seibert says the Israeli-US campaign was "definitely understandable," but that continued fighting won't achieve much, and that it is now time to turn military gains into a political arrangement. Seibert, who learned Hebrew during his tenure, says that he is not sure what he will do next, but intends to continue spending time in Israel while he works to "reinvent" himself in the next phase of his career.

When climate wins happen, we often credit the market. Or the policy. But is philanthropy the most underappreciated force in the climate fight? And can less than 2% of global giving actually change anything?Behind the headlines, people like Jennifer Kitt of Climate Lead are identifying where finite resources can be spent in order to make a real difference, and helping to grow the pie. Tom Rivett-Carnac, Christiana Figueres, and Paul Dickinson sit down with her to ask: what does well-targeted philanthropic money actually unlock? Who decides where it goes? And why, when it works, do we so rarely notice? From the coalition that quietly accelerated the EV transition by decades, to the $30,000 grant that helped take climate responsibility all the way to the World's Court.The uncomfortable truth is that climate action is becoming reliant on the generosity of a wealthy few. The good news is that this money is growing; the bad news is that it needs to grow much, much more. So how much would it take to start solving some of tomorrow's problems today? And are there risks in expecting a small and privileged group to fund a movement that belongs to everyone?Learn More:

An unprecedented government move to outrun the courts. A country racing to write AI into its constitution. And a global energy crisis that's already moved faster than any possible fix. Are our institutions and the rules they rest on still fit for the world they're supposed to protect?This week, Tom Rivett-Carnac, Christiana Figueres, and Paul Dickinson look at three stories the headlines may be missing.In New Zealand, the government has moved to retroactively kill a landmark climate lawsuit - before it even reaches trial. Tom shares a voice note from ClientEarth CEO Laura Clarke who gives us the inside scoop on what is actually at stake. If this works, where does it end?Then Greece, which wants to write a legally binding obligation for human-centred AI into its constitution. But can a national document meaningfully govern a borderless technology? And as we increasingly rely on AI for our information, where do these large language models actually go for their climate science?Finally, the Strait of Hormuz. Financial markets think the situation is priced in. Geopolitical analysts disagree. We ask which sectors might unexpectedly accelerate the energy transition, why the climate movement seems frozen at exactly the moment it should be loudest, and whether this decade's decisive window is already starting to close.Learn More:⚖️ Learn more about ClientEarth and its work

Guests, Peter and Donna, Corruption Whistleblowers Updating the corruption and theft in Australia's banking system and revealing their controversial 400-page affidavit arguing Australia became a sovereign nation in 1919 after the Treaty of Versailles, making current government and banking structures unlawful under international law. Unveiling the "Concealed Colony": Banking Corruption and the Quest for Australian Sovereignty The Sovereignty Scandal Whistleblowing the Australian Banking "Cartel" & The 1920 Independence Deception Confidential Brief Key Whistleblowers Peter & Donna "Australia is a crime scene. We only write briefs of evidence. Everything has to be proven." Core Contentions •Hidden Trillions: Banks allegedly withheld interest from the Alpha Omega Trust due to the people since 1997. •Invalid Constitution: Argument that the 1900 UK Act became redundant in 1919 via the Treaty of Versailles. •The "Cartel": Claims the current government is a foreign-aligned corporate entity trespassing on sovereign land. $Trillions Owed to Citizens 1920 Legal Independence Evidence: International Law Articles Article 10 Political Independence / Non-Aggression Article 18 Mandatory Registry of Treaties Article 20 Abrogation of Inconsistent Obligations #BankingScandal#SovereignAustralia#AlphaOmegaTrust#Whistleblower Next Step: Submit "Victim Impact Statements" via corruptionwhistleblower.com Est. Reading: 8 mins • Inspired Radio In this episode of Inspired Radio, host Helen Taylor interviews Peter and Donna from Corruption Whistleblower. The discussion exposes a massive alleged financial fraud involving the "Alpha Omega Trust" and challenges the legal legitimacy of the Australian government, claiming the nation has been operating as an unlawful "criminal cartel" since 1920. Detailed Summary of Key Findings 1. The Trillion-Dollar Banking Fraud According to documents recovered by the guests, nine major Australian banks, including the Reserve Bank, were entrusted with trillions of dollars in 1966 and 1967 under the Alpha Omega Trust. This capital was intended to be held for 30 years, with 50% of the generated interest distributed to the Australian people starting around 1997. Peter and Donna assert that these funds remain hidden on "hidden ledgers," and they are currently preparing a court case to force the return of these assets to the public. The Scarcity Engine: How Money is Created Peter explains the "Fiat" mechanism that drives modern debt enslavement: The Promise: Loans are created via "promissory notes" (Bills of Exchange). The Gap: Banks issue the Principal but never create the Interest currency. The Result: Interest can only be paid through inflation or broken loans (repossessions), meaning the system is mathematically programmed for failure. 2. The Constitutional "Incineration" of 1919 A central argument of the interview is that Australia became a fully sovereign, independent nation-state following the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. Peter claims that the blood sacrifice of over 60,000 soldiers in WWI earned Australia its international personality, effectively making the UK Commonwealth Constitution Act 1900 redundant on Australian soil. They argue that by continuing to use a UK Act, the current government acts as a "foreign power" or "territorialist" regime that lacks true jurisdiction over the land. 3. International Law and the "Criminal Cartel" The guests highlight Article 10 and Article 18 of the League of Nations Covenant (and later UN Charter Articles 2 and 102), which prohibit political interference in the territorial integrity of sovereign members. They contend that Australian officials, by swearing allegiance to the British Monarch rather than the sovereign Australian people, are committing "war crimes" and acts of aggression against their own populace. They are currently finalizing a 400-page affidavit to be submitted to international bodies like the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the International Court of Justice (ICJ). Legal Legitimacy Timeline 1900: UK Constitution Act (Colonial Status) 1919: Treaty of Versailles (Sovereignty Gained) 1920: League of Nations (International Personality) Present:Alleged "De Facto" Territorialist Rule 4. The Path Forward: Secession and New Constitutions The conversation touches on growing movements for change, including the potential secession of Western Australia (WA). Intellectuals and professionals are reportedly calculating how the nation could thrive by removing "65% of the bureaucracy" and retaining local resources. Peter and Donna emphasize that they are not "sovereign citizens"—a label they reject as a government distraction—but rather people seeking to hold the "de facto" administration accountable to international law. Key Data & Indicators WWI Casualties: 60,720 deaths and 155,000 wounded, cited as the "blood sacrifice" for Australian independence. UN Donations: Australia allegedly donates $5 billion annually to UN programs without sufficient domestic accountability. CEO Salaries: Major bank CEOs are noted to be earning approximately **10millionperyear∗∗(10millionperyear∗∗(800,000/month) while the public faces financial scarcity. Affidavit Status: A 400-page evidentiary document is currently in the "proofreading and tidying" phase for international submission. To-Do / Next Steps Submit Victim Impact Statements: Individuals harmed by unlawful repossessions, family court failures, or government overreach are urged to download the template from the website and post the original to the guests. Review Evidence: Listeners are encouraged to visit corruptionwhistleblower.com to view the "Alpha Omega Trust" documents and historical parliamentary records. Educational Reading: Read The Concealed Colony as a foundational text to understand the legal arguments presented in the interview. Monitor International Filings: Watch for updates regarding the submission of the 400-page affidavit to the ICC and ICJ. Conclusion The interview presents a radical re-interpretation of Australian history and law, framing the current administrative structure as a bankrupt "banking system" rather than a legitimate government. By combining historical treaties with modern financial whistleblowing, Peter and Donna aim to trigger a "military-style" accountability process that restores the nation's wealth and sovereignty to its people.

Mark Oppenheimer returns to the Pioneer Podcast to discuss the growing trend of "selective outrage" in global and South African politics. We explore why the South African government remains silent on the murder of protesters in Iran while taking aggressive legal action against Israel, highlighting the double standards regarding human rights. We unpack the recent ICJ case and the contradictions in how "genocidal speech" is defined. We also discuss the bizarre denial of race laws in South Africa by local media figures on international platforms and the refusal of radical ideologues to engage in genuine debate. Finally, Oppenheimer shares the inside story of the attempted cancellation of The Kiffness before his Kirstenbosch show.   You can support Lex Libertas here - https://www.lexlibertas.org.za/support-us

A sharp warning from Kenneth Roth: the global order isn't collapsing, but it's being stretched by powerful states prioritising force over law. In this Radio Islam International interview, Roth unpacks how selective justice, “predatory leadership,” and violations in places like Gaza and Sudan are testing international law's credibility, while institutions like the ICC and ICJ still push back, imperfectly but persistently.

Gillian Moon is today's guest. Gillian is a legal scholar who in recent years has been leading the Australian Climate Accountability Project within the Australian Human Rights Institute. Over the course of her career she's worked in and specialised at the intersection of human rights law, climate change, international economic law and development policy. I first came across Gillian a few years ago when the Australian Climate Accountability Project was first established and started releasing some of its work which was looking at the specific risks and human harms climate change has, is and will continue to create, supplemented by an extensive analysis of Australia's emissions profile when fossil fuel exports are accounted for. That work stood out as it started to indicate how rights are adversely affected by a changing climate, and over the past few years Gillian and her colleagues have continued to evolve and mature their analysis, commentary and documentation, including the seminal work last year; State of denial: Australia's legal obligations for human rights harms within Australia from its fossil fuel exports.I worked in the corporate human rights space for a good chunk of my career and have always been surprised that the adverse harms to individual and collective rights that climate change is delivering aren't better understood nor spoken about. As I've tried to do on this show in better understanding the legalities of accountability around climate change, I'm somewhere between convinced and hopeful that human rights and the law can be valuable levers for meaningful action and restorative justice. The International Court of Justice's advisory opinion regarding the obligations of states in respect of climate change was a key moment in the recent history of the climate equity and justice struggle, but as we hear about from Gillian in this episode, much, much more is still required.We chat about Australia's insincere and hypocritical fossil fuel and emissions story, the country's haphazard and unhelpful human rights regulatory and legislative frameworks and structures, and the role of international obligations in all of this. We also get into how legal scholars, health practitioners and climate scientists are beginning to converge around a methodological understanding of how to match climate attribution science to health impacts and the legal consequences of new and expanding fossil fuel projects. As knowledge in these areas accelerate, the potential for rapid change is entirely plausible. This work, that Gillian played a key role in, found that Woodside's Scarborough gas project off the coast of Western Australia would lead to 484 addition heath related deaths in Europe alone this century, and kill about 16 million additional corals on the Great Barrier Reef in the same time. This is fascinating, important and potentially material developments in surfacing real human rights harms that could and should be incorporated into approval decisions.Gillian is a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and in the battle to beat fossil fuels and intransigent politicians, what she and her colleagues are developing is likely going to become a major force in this next phase of action.Check out Reposit Power to get $500 off your solar battery system that will work. Subscribe, rate & share.Ep.114Send me a messageThanks for listening.

Send a textOn Inside Geneva this week, we look at women fighting for justice.In 2017, Myanmar's military launched an assault on the Rohingya population. Almost a million were displaced, there were reports of horrific violations: rape, the murder of children, including babies.“The accounts that affected me most are those of children. Now I'm a grandfather, I sit there and listen and I think of my own kids when they were young and my grandkids now. How can you not?,” says Chris Sidoti from the Myanmar fact-finding mission.The UN investigators who documented the evidence were shocked, but feared there would be no accountability.“They asked me for justice and when I asked them 'why are you here, why have you been waiting all day in the camps', many of them were not able to walk, they had not eaten and they wanted justice. And at that time, I really thought it would not be possible for justice to come,” says Antonia Mulvey from Legal Action Worldwide.But now, almost a decade later, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is hearing a case of genocide against Myanmar.“To see now, action in the ICJ: I still know how many years it's going to take. I still know that the Myanmar butchers who are responsible for what happened may never individually be brought to justice. But I certainly live in hope that one day they will,” says Sidoti.Mulvey is at the ICJ, supporting women who are testifying about what happened. “If you were in that court, I can assure you, international law is alive and it is fighting very hard,” she says.Join host Imogen Foulkes on Inside Geneva.Get in touch!

This program is the third part in a series that started with the April 2025 broadcast to spotlight the genocide of Rohingya people of Myanmar. In 2017, a violent military offensive forced hundreds of thousands of Rohingya to flee across the border to refugee camps in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. More than 1.1 million people – 75% of them women and children – live there as of June 2025. There are also tens of thousands in refugee camps in Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. This past week, on January 22, 2026, International Court of Justice began hearings on the genocide case brought by The Gambia against Myanmar, Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar). I will interview feminist advocates and activists Noor Azizah and human rights attorney Nuraisha Mohd Hanif to gather updates for listeners about the court case and the current conditions in the refugee camps where thousands of people continue to suffer beyond most people's imaginations.

Judge Thomas G. Moukawsher is a Connecticut complex litigation judge and former lawyer, legislator and lobbyist. He is the author of “The Common Flaw: Needless Complexity in the Courts and 50 Ways to Reduce it.”    He recently authored various articles on the Supreme Court's immunity ruling and what it means. President Trump has taken the country into full retreat of world leadership by withdrawing from several international organizations such as the World Health Organization and Paris Climate Agreement.  Most hard hit are vital UN agencies that directly benefit the US. He wants to divide the world into fiefdom of dominance by China, Russia and the US, powered and legalized by might makes right, rather than depend on the Rule of Law. As the US voluntarily sidelines itself, China will gladly fill the void. Almost 100-years ago, similar actions occurred that destabilized the world and led to two major World Wars.

Hearings have begun in the first case of its kind at the International Court of Justice. West African country The Gambia has brought a case against Myanmar for alleged acts of genocide against the Rohingya people. When legal proceedings were launched in 2019, it was the first time an alleged genocide had been submitted to the ICJ by a country not directly affected by the genocide. The verdict of this unprecedented case could influence future cases, like the pending trial against Israel, brought by South Africa, for alleged acts of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Today, we’re going to explain everything you know about the ICJ case against Myanmar. Hosts: Emily Donohoe and Billi FitzSimonsProducer: Orla Maher Want to support The Daily Aus? That's so kind!

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayomulika Mkataba wa Kimataifa wa kulinda viumbe hai wa baharini kwenye Bahari Kuu na ujumbe wa Mzee Ali Haji, Naibu Katibu Mkuu anayehusika na Katiba na Sheria katika Ofisi ya Rais, Serikali ya Mapinduzi Zanzibar nchini Tanzania kuhus umuhimu wa mkataba huu.Kesi inaendelea katika Mahakama ya Kimataifa ya Haki, ICJ mjini The Hague, kuhusu madai kwamba Myanmar ilitekeleza mauaji ya kimbari dhidi ya watu wa Rohingya. Mawakili wa Gambia wameiambia mahakama hiyo kuwa jeshi la Myanmar lilichochea ghasia kupitia kauli za chuki, likiwaita Warohingya “mbwa Waislamu”kabla ya mashambulizi ya mwaka 2017.Baada ya zaidi ya siku 1,000 za mzozo, Sudan inakabiliwa na mgogoro mkubwa zaidi wa njaa na uhamaji wa watu duniani. Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Mpango wa Chakula Duniani WFP, leo linaonya kuwa operesheni zake za kuokoa maisha ziko hatarini kutokana na uhaba mkubwa wa ufadhili.Mamilioni ya raia wa Uganda leo walipiga kura katika uchaguzi mkuu wa Rais, wabunge na serikali za mitaa huku Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Wakimbizi UNHCR likisisitiza umuhimu wa wakimbizi zaidi ya milioni moja nchini humo kubaki bila kuegemea upande wowote wa kisiasa. Shirika hilo limeonya kuwa kushiriki katika siasa kunaweza kuwakosesha wakimbizi usalama, kupelekea mateso kutoka nchi zao za asili, au kuathiri ulinzi na hali yao ya hifadhi nchini Uganda.Na katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili na leo Dkt.

Rania Khalek is joined by former UN human rights official Craig Mokhiber, whose recent Mondoweiss article, "Ushering in the age of impunity: Venezuela, Palestine, and the end of international law," unpacks how recent U.S. aggression from Venezuela to Gaza signals a dangerous unraveling of the post-World War II legal order. We'll discuss:• What the U.S. attack on Venezuela reveals about the limits of global legal restraints. • How the violence in Palestine fits into a broader pattern of unchecked power. • The crisis facing international law and global institutions like the UN, ICC, and ICJ. • What meaningful resistance and accountability might look like.

As 2025 comes to a close, People, Places, Planet takes stock of a year of profound change in environmental law—and looks ahead to the legal and policy questions that will shape 2026. Host Sebastian Duque Rios draws on insights from ELI convenings with leading scholars, practitioners, scientists, and policymakers to unpack how courts, agencies, and governments are redefining environmental authority and accountability.The episode covers key U.S. Supreme Court decisions and previews cases to watch in the upcoming term, explores sweeping changes to NEPA and administrative law, and examines the growing treatment of climate change as a legal rights issue in both U.S. and international courts. It also looks at how these high-level legal debates are playing out on the ground—from data centers and AI infrastructure to clean water, cooperative federalism, and the shifting balance of state and federal power. Supreme Court environmental law review and preview (1:47) NEPA after Seven County and CEQ rescission (14:57)Climate change and rights in the courts (26:17)The future of the endangerment finding (32:36)On the ground: data centers, cooperative federalism, and WOTUS (36:42)See ELI's resources for more information:Annual Supreme Court Review & Preview (2025)The Future of NEPA Review: Unpacking the Seven County Infrastructure Coalition DecisionHeld v.

Send us a textStart with a boast and a blind spot: “The truth never makes me uncomfortable.” From that line, the debate ignites. We take you inside Anna Kasparian's appearance on Bill Maher's Club Random, where calm receipts meet moving goalposts, and where big claims about Gaza, genocide, and history collide with facts on the record.We unpack the core disputes in plain language. What does “genocide” actually mean in international law, and why have major human rights organizations and genocide scholars said Gaza meets the threshold? Did Israel “give Gaza back,” or did border, airspace, and resource control keep occupation intact? What does “from the river to the sea” mean when stated in full, and how do decades of Arab peace offers—from Egypt and Jordan's treaties to the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative—undercut the story of unbroken rejectionism?We also confront the most persistent deflections. Women's and LGBTQ rights in parts of the Muslim world are real concerns; they do not justify bombing civilians or starving a population. “Human shields” allegations do not erase the duty to protect noncombatants. Viral atrocity stories demand verification, not certainty theater. And the “half a loaf” myth from 1948 dissolves when you look at maps, expulsions, and the expansion that followed. Throughout, we condemn terrorism and hostage-taking without handing a blank check to siege, settlement growth, and annexation talk that make a genuine peace structurally impossible.This is a guided tour through claims Maher leans on and the evidence he skips: ICJ filings, casualty data, occupation law, and the political incentives that keep the conflict running. We don't ask you to pick a camp; we ask you to keep a principle. If the moral rule is “don't kill civilians,” it applies on October 7 and it applies every day since. Press play for a clear, sourced breakdown—and bring your best counterarguments.If this episode sharpened your thinking, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review telling us the one claim you still want us to test next.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sat down with Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, to expose the corruption and hypocrisy within the United Nations and how it has become one of the world's biggest enablers of antisemitism and terror.From the Soviet Union's 1975 campaign declaring “Zionism is racism” to today's Hamas apologists like Francesca Albanese, Neuer reveals how the UN was captured by authoritarian regimes and weaponised against Israel. He details how organisations like UNRWA have been infiltrated by Hamas operatives, turning schools and aid programmes into fronts for jihad — all funded by Western taxpayers.Neuer explains why the so-called “rules-based international order” never truly existed, how the Human Rights Council became a haven for dictatorships, and why Britain and Europe continue to bankroll organisations that indoctrinate children to hate.A shocking and essential conversation on the UN's betrayal of its founding principles, the persistence of antisemitism in international institutions, and the urgent need for moral courage and reform in the West.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 0:00 Introduction2:59 Francesca Albanese and the UN's Inconsistencies 5:16 Albanese's Support for Hamas and Anti-Semitism8:03 The UN Human Rights Council and Its Members 11:00 The UN's Political Nature and the ICJ 13:24 The UN's Decline and the Soviet Influence17:17 The 1975 UN Resolution on Zionism29:52 UNRWA's Role and Its Radicalisation 34:24 UNRWA's Operations and Corruption52:15 The Need for De-Radicalisation and Reform 55:04 The Role of the UN and Future Reforms Hosted on Acast.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayoangazia siku ya Umoja wa Mataifa na tutasikia kutoka mashinani wananchi na asasi za kiraia zina yapi ya kusema kuhusu shirika hili kubwa na la kipekee linalounganisha nchi wanachama 193 duniani.Mashirika manne ya Umoja wa Mataifa lile la uhamiaji IOM, la kuhudumia wakimbizi UNHCR, la Kuhudumia watoto UNICEF na la mpango wa chakula duniani WFP leo yametoa wito wa dharura kwa dunia kuchukua hatua mara moja kukabiliana na janga la kibinadamu linaloongezeka nchini Sudan. Zaidi ya watu milioni 30 wanahitaji msaada, nchini humo wakiwemo watoto milioni 15 na wakimbizi karibu milioni moja.Mahakama ya Kimataifa ya Haki (ICJ) jana Oktoba 22 ilisema Israeli lazima itimize majukumu yake kama “anayekalia kimabavu” kwa kuhakikisha kuwa msaada unaweza kupita bila vizuizi na kwa kuheshimu haki za Umoja wa Mataifa na mashirika mengine ya kibinadamu yanayofanya kazi katika Ardhi ya Palestina Iliyokaliwa kwa Mabavu. Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa António Guterres ameelezea maoni hayo ya ICJ kuwa “muhimu sana,” akiongeza kuwa yametolewa wakati ambapo Umoja wa Mataifa unafanya kila juhudi kuongeza kasi ya misaada kuingia Gaza baada ya kusitishwa kwa mapigano.Nchini Kenya, wahudumu wa afya waliokuwa wakisubiri hadi siku 15 kupata malipo sasa wanapokea pesa ndani ya saa 72 pekee, shukrani kwa mfumo mpya wa malipo ya kidijitali uliotolewa na Shirika la Sfya la Umoja wa Mataifa WHO na Wizara ya Afya ya nchi hiyo. Mfumo huu unapeleka fedha moja kwa moja kwenye pochi za simu za wafanyakazi, ukipunguza ucheleweshaji, gharama na kuongeza motisha. Wafanyakazi zaidi ya 120,000 sasa wanafaidika, kuboresha ufanisi wa kampeni za chanjo na juhudi za kudhibiti polio.Mwenyeji wako ni Anold Kayanda, karibu!

In this landmark episode, Professor William Schabas — one of the world's foremost experts on international criminal law and the legal architect behind much of our modern understanding of genocide — joins The Voices of War to unpack the explosive legal and political debates surrounding Israel's war in Gaza.

The US government has, six times now, unilaterally vetoed resolutions in the UN Security Council that called for peace and a ceasefire in Gaza. Meanwhile, a United Nations commission stated conclusively that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people, with the full support of the United States, under both Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

The recent advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on states' obligations regarding climate change was celebrated globally for providing clarity on countries' legal obligation to prevent climate harm, but was also appreciated by island nations for its additional certainty on their maritime boundaries remaining intact regardless of sea level rise. This week on Mongabay's podcast, environmental lawyer Angelique Pouponneau, a Seychelles native and lead negotiator for the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS), explains these victories, their legal implications, and how they matter for small island nations. She says Small Island Developing States (SIDS) face a multitude of, “one of which [was] this idea of the shrinking exclusive economic zones.” Exclusive economic zones are the waters that lie within the jurisdiction of a nation, usually 200 nautical miles (370 kilometers) from its shore. With the ICJ advisory opinion, there's now legal certainty that this zone will remain within the jurisdiction of a state, even if its shoreline shrinks as a result of rising seas due to climate change. “What island nations were trying to guard against through state practice was essentially if there were ever to be loss of territory, it would not mean loss of exclusive economic zone,” Pouponneau says.

The case was reportedly brought before the United Nations' highest court by small island countries, seeking to force international standards onto larger governments. When Axios reached out to the White House Monday regarding potential penalties the United States could face, the response was direct. “As always, President Trump and the entire Administration is committed to putting America first and prioritizing the interests of everyday Americans,” Spokeswoman Taylor Rogers said in a statement. Spot on. We cannot be sucked into global affairs — and follow edicts from other countries — as we rebuild our own domestic infrastructure. Hence, Trump's move to withdraw America from the Paris Climate Accords — something he'd already done in his first term, but had to do again after former President Joe Biden reversed it. “[The ICJ case] specifically calls out the responsibility of industrialized nations to take the lead in limiting emissions,” Axios reported. Are we supposed to believe that countries like China and Russia are going to have their feet held to the fire on pollution? The target seems to be the United States. Why? Because we have far-left lawmakers willing to throw trillions of dollars at an issue that hasn't even been fully settled. First, it was “global warming” because the polar caps were melting, setting up an ice age. Then the argument shifted to temperatures getting hotter, and the phrase was switched to climate change. Every time a doomsday event was predicted, it got pushed off. “The Day After Tomorrow” never came. That's red flag number one. Red flag number two is the potential money-laundering aspect. After laundering tactics were exposed inside the USAID by Elon Musk's DOGE team, what's to stop climate change funding from being used as a personal piggy bank? During the Obama years, the firm Solyndra had the federal government cosign a loan for over $500 million in solar technology before it went under, Forbes reported. The same Forbes piece highlighted how several similar firms were given hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer funds, yet they all failed. Where did the money go?

“An Existential Problem of Planetary Proportions”International Court of Justice President Yuji Iwasawa just delivered a landmark advisory opinion on climate change and human rights - one that could transform global climate action and accountability.A dancing and crying Christiana Figueres is joined by Tom Rivett-Carnac and Paul Dickinson, to react in real-time, and speak with two of the lawyers who helped make it happen. Fresh from the courtroom, Julian Aguon, the indigenous human rights lawyer who represented Pacific nations, and Jennifer Robinson, barrister for Vanuatu and the Marshall Islands, bring their raw, unfiltered reactions to this history-making ruling (before heading off to celebrate).As governments, legal teams, and corporate leaders worldwide scramble to interpret its implications, we have everything you need to know about what just happened in The Hague.The ICJ's unanimous opinion states:Climate action is now a legal duty: States are obligated under international law to prevent dangerous climate change.1.5°C has legal weight: States must pursue their “highest possible ambition” in their Nationally Determined Contributions and ensure collective measures can limit warming to 1.5°C.Failure to act is unlawful: Granting fossil fuel licenses, providing subsidies, or failing to regulate emissions may constitute an internationally wrongful act.Reparations are possible: Countries could be required to compensate or remedy the damage caused by their emissions - anywhere in the world.Could this be the legal tipping point that forces governments to act? Across capitals and boardrooms, the conversations have already started - and what happens next could reshape how nations and companies are held to account. Listen in and join us as this story unfolds.Learn more Listen back to our two previous episodes that explore the background to this case:

Plus, friend of the show Nigel Topping (Founder of Ambition Loop) helps to explain why UK electricity prices are tied to gas - and how we can fix it.From the philosophical to the practical, this is a wide-ranging conversation about where climate progress is stalling, where it's surging forward, and how global cooperation might evolve in the years ahead.Learn more Listen back to episodes referenced in this Q&A, including:⏳ Momentum vs Perfection, where Fiona joins Tom to explore different theories of change within the climate movement.✊

In a world-first, the International Court of Justice is preparing to deliver an advisory opinion on climate change and human rights - all thanks to a youth-led campaign that began thousands of miles from The Hague, in the Pacific Islands.This week, we look inside that extraordinary campaign, and hear the story of Cynthia Houniuhi, who - as a young law student from the Solomon Islands - helped launch the movement that would ultimately unite over 130 countries behind a single goal. Now, six years after this idea began in a law classroom, the world's highest court is set to weigh in on the responsibility of states to protect current and future generations from climate harm.Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac, and Paul Dickinson reflect on the power of legal activism, the role of youth leadership, and what this landmark case could mean for the future of international climate law.Learn more ⚖️ Read more information about the ICJ climate case on the Pacific Islands Students Fighting Climate Change website
