Universities globally, like Harvard, are significantly funded by their alumni, with Harvard's endowment reaching over $50 billion in 2022 due to philanthropy. In South Africa, however, universities face financial challenges due to substantial government spending cuts and tuition fee increase restrictions. This has led the University of Pretoria (TUKS) to diversify its income streams through a financial sustainability plan. Rikus Delport, the Director of Institutional Development, revealed to Biznews that UP is learning from the success of US universities in garnering financial contributions from alumni. Consequently, UP is establishing overseas foundations to encourage TUKS alumni to contribute financially. The first foundation was set up in the US, followed by one in the UK, with plans to expand further. Delport explained that the funds raised would support the ‘missing middle' - individuals ineligible for state grants and whose parents, such as nurses, policemen, or teachers, cannot afford university tuition. He also commented on the ongoing turmoil at UP, stating that universities often mirror broader societal issues and face challenging times. Delport highlighted the high demand for admission at UP, with 60,000 applications received from first-year students this year, but only 8,500 could be accommodated. Internationally, TUKS researchers are known for their heavyweight contributions to veterinary science. One of the milestones in veterinary healthcare was the first-ever successful CT scan of a live adult rhino for a tooth root abscess that was treated successfully. The faculty also hit the international headlines when it scanned a 210 kg gorilla.

After heart disease cancer is the leading cause of mortality in the US at over 600,000 deaths annually. Not surprisingly cancer care costs are considerable at approximately $210 billion of which approximately 10% is paid out of pocket. This explains why in part up to 30% of Medicare beneficiaries without subsidies do not fill their anticancer prescriptions. To make matters worse, the COVID pandemic has significantly compromised cancer diagnosis and treatment that are expected to produce negative ripple effects. While President Biden's “Cancer Moonshot,” aims to cut cancer death rates by 50% over the next 25 years, last year the CDC projected that because of the growth and aging of the population the annual number of cancer cases will increase nearly 50% between 2015 and 2050. During this 33 minute interview Ms. Goldsmith discusses the CancerCare's work, in sum, the organization provides free professional support services and information for cancer patients. We move on to discuss the relationship between CancerCare's work and the Medicare hospice benefit, problems with employer based coverage for cancer diagnoses, complications associated with timely cancer screenings, work CancerCare does to help their patients/clients afford their medications. Ms. Goldsmith comments on President Biden's Cancer Moonshot initiative, drug pricing policies recently passed under the IRA, challenges her organization faces in raising financial assistance funding and the increasing demands on the organization's workforce. Patricia J. Goldsmith joined CancerCare in 2014 as Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Goldsmith previously served as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN). Previously still, Ms. formerly served as Vice President for Institutional Development, Public Affairs and Marketing at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida – an NCCN Member Institution. Before joining Moffitt, she developed and directed all managed care activities for the University of South Florida College of Medicine. A frequent national meetings and symposia, Ms. Goldsmith has also served on Congressional panels. Ms. Goldsmith has studied at the Pennsylvania State University, the University of Missouri Bloch School of Business and the Harvard School of Public Health. She was a winner of the 1999 Distinguished Women in Business Award sponsored by the Business Journal of Tampa Bay and also was named the 1999 Leukemia Society Woman of the Year. Most recently, Ms. Goldsmith was named to Forbes 50 Over 50 Vision List which was established in partnership with Mika Brzezinski's “Know Your Value,” and highlights women over the age of 50 who have achieved significant success.Information on CancerCare is at: https://www.cancercare.org/.

Violet Nyando is an Agricultural Innovation Expert with over 15 years of experience in Agribusiness Advisory Services and Agricultural Rural Innovations Studies with a particular interest in Youth Entrepreneurship, Governance, and Leadership of Agri-Enterprises. Her experience in Kenya and Eastern Africa and engagement with International Development Practitioners across the World has earned her a deeper understanding of the African Agricultural and Community Landscape. Violet has expertise in the areas of Agricultural Innovations including Climate Smart Agriculture, Agricultural Policy Development, Institutional Development, and Strengthening, Agricultural Advisory and Extension, Agricultural Product Value Chain Development, Gender Analysis, and Mainstreaming, Agribusiness Development with a particular interest in Youth Entrepreneurship, Governance and Leadership of Agri-Enterprises, Public Policy Lobby and Advocacy Processes and Impact Assessment of Development Projects both in the public and private sector. Key interview highlights: Many African business ideas fail not because they are not good but because they did not get sufficient support. Many African SMEs fail before the 3rd year because of insufficient interrogation of the business idea and the foundation that they were built on wasn't strong enough to last Youth-led African businesses need better institutional support and business development services, in addition, to access to finance, technical assistance, skill-building, and good governance/management training Access to finance is still a major challenge to growing good ideas into profitable businesses. In Kenya there are some Youth Entrepreneurship Funding Models that include: Group lending Government program-based funding (declared funds) that target youth Cost-share funding models promoted by development partners (bundled with technical assistance) where partial funding is provided and bundled with technical assistance and mentoring The entrepreneurship process needs to be demystified in terms of the timelines for business growth and profitability and hard work that goes into creating a successful business. The importance of prioritizing customers by creating a great customer experience. Customers are not only a form of funding but also the best advertising. Happy customers are the best advertisers and repeat customers are good for cash flow.

Amplifying Black Voices, with Antoine Boynton, MBA Antoine is Executive Director of Public Relations and Institutional Development at Athens Technical College. He shares with us the pivotal moment within him when he realized enough is enough: the heart-breaking atrocity of George Floyd. That's when he found himself rising to ensure his and other voices were no longer silenced. Antoine authentically shares his experience facing hateful rhetoric. He expresses his love, passion, and pride for the Country, as an American. He shares values his parents instilled in him to “treat everyone right, walk with respect, show respect. We just need to talk to each other”. Antoine suggests that we all get out of our comfort zone, walk around and meet people, talk to people, humanize everyone. Do something you would not usually do. Change is on the horizon, the hope of the younger generation not having the same prejudices, where color of the skin does not matter. Antoine offers ideas to further expand the youth's potential to change the racial inequality. He says, "Keep your kids connected to extra-curricular activities where they are exposed to different people with different point of views." Key highlights: Respect other's opinions Have honest open discussions Open your mind's to new viewpoints No more yelling and hateful words Try to understand others and in doing so proceed with kindness. Meet your neighbors Join a group you wouldn't normally Expand realm of experience to try to understand where others are coming from.

Some of the most interesting debates on development include the role of democracy in promoting economic growth and then distributing the benefits of growth to achieve poverty reduction. Indeed, some of the questions that have attracted considerably scholarly attention in recent decades include the following: Are certain regimes better able and equipped than others to achieve economic growth? Does democracy work for the poor? Despite considerable research on the topic, the results of the democracy-growth relationship are not always very clear. But there does appear to be stronger linkages between democracy and certain types of development outcomes, including literacy and infant mortality.Guest: Carl Henrik Knutsen is a professor of political science at the University of Oslo. He has for many years studied the democracy-growth linkage and has published extensively on this subject. In a recent piece called the “Business case for democracy”, he argues that democracy works as a safety-net for avoiding the worst possible economic outcomes. And in relation to economic growth, he argues that autocracies have more variation — over countries and across time.

While there are still occasional uses of it today, the term "Central Europe" carries little of the charge that it did in the 1980s and early 1990s, and as a political and intellectual project it has receded from the horizon. Proponents of a distinct cultural profile of these countries―all involved now in the process of Transatlantic integration―used "Central European", as a contestation with the geo-political label of Eastern Europe. In Transatlantic Central Europe: Contesting Geography and Redefining Culture beyond the Nation (Central European University Press, 2019), Jessie Labov discusses the transnational set of practices connecting journals with other media in the mid-1980s, disseminating the idea of Central Europe simultaneously in East and West. A range of new methodologies, including GIS-mapping visualization, is used, repositing the political-cultural journal as one central node of a much larger cultural system. What has happened to the liberal humanist philosophy that "Central Europe" once evoked? In the early years of the transition era, the liberal humanist perspective shared by Havel, Konrád, Kundera, and Michnik was quickly replaced by an economic liberalism that evolved into neoliberal policies and practices. The author follows the trajectories of the concept into the present day, reading its material and intellectual traces in the post-communist landscape. She explores how the current use of transnational, web-based media follows the logic and practice of an earlier, 'dissident' generation of writers.
