Après le nord et le centre du Mali, c'est l'ouest de ce pays qui est à présent sous la menace des jihadistes du Jnim. Et plus précisément la zone des trois frontières du Mali, de la Mauritanie et du Sénégal. C'est le constat que fait le Timbuktu Institute, dans un rapport qu'il publie ce lundi 28 avril. Dans son enquête, l'institut de recherches révèle aussi que ces jihadistes essaient de s'infiltrer dans l'est du Sénégal. Par quelles méthodes ? Bakary Sambe est le directeur régional du Timbuktu Institute. En ligne de Dakar, il répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Pourquoi dites-vous que les jihadistes du Jnim sont dans une stratégie d'encerclement de Bamako ? Bakary Sambe : Oui, on le voit parce que le Jnim est dans une logique d'augmentation exponentielle des attaques violentes dans la région de Kayes, qui n'est pas n'importe quelle région, qui est la région qui relie Bamako au Sénégal avec les routes d'approvisionnement reliant le Mali au port de Dakar, qui est crucial dans l'économie et dans l'approvisionnement de Bamako et du Mali de manière générale. Et le Jnim a multiplié par sept ses actions violentes entre 2021 et 2024 dans la région de Kayes, en ciblant les forces de sécurité, en s'attaquant aux convois sur les axes routiers vers Bamako et aussi aujourd'hui avec des attaques qui se multiplient aux environs de Bamako. Sans oublier ce qui s'est passé en 2022 avec l'attaque spectaculaire dans le camp de Kati.Et bien sûr en septembre 2024, l'attaque sur l'aéroport de Bamako... Y a-t-il eu depuis le début de l'année des attaques ou des embuscades meurtrières contre l'armée malienne dans la région de Kayes, dans l'ouest du Mali ? Il y a eu beaucoup d'escarmouches çà et là, mais l'une des attaques les plus remarquées a été celle de Melgué, qui est à 35 kilomètres de la frontière sénégalaise et de la ville de Bakel, le 8 février dernier, avec trois morts. Ce qui montre que le Jnim s'installe de plus en plus. Et en plus du contrôle des axes routiers, le Jnim essaye de désorganiser l'approvisionnement de Bamako, notamment dans des localités qui mènent sur cet axe de Kayes, et dans la forêt de Baoulé. Et le Jnim a revendiqué, comme vous le savez récemment, l'enlèvement du calife Thierno Hady Tall en décembre 2024 à Nioro du Sahel, ce qui montre une volonté d'imposer aujourd'hui son autorité idéologique et de délégitimer non seulement les autorités politiques, mais aussi les chefs traditionnels.Dans votre rapport, vous vous intéressez aussi aux tentatives d'infiltration des jihadistes du Jnim dans l'est du Sénégal, notamment autour de Bakel. Mais là, ils s'opposent aux chefs religieux et à leurs puissantes confréries. Est-ce que les jihadistes ne se heurtent pas dans ce cas à un mur religieux infranchissable ? Justement, dans cette région de l'est du Sénégal, le principal élément de résilience idéologique, à savoir la présence des confréries soufies, est moindre. La spécificité socio-religieuse de l'est du Sénégal est que les confréries soufies, comme la Tijaniyya et la Mouridiyya, qui sont considérées comme le principal élément de résilience idéologique par rapport à l'extrémisme, ne sont pas assez présentes dans cette zone. Cette zone est dominée par la présence d'un islam salafiste de plus en plus renforcé par les réseaux de la migration, avec des populations qui sont parties en Europe et qui ont eu des contacts avec les milieux salafistes et qui construisent justement des mosquées salafistes pour contrecarrer l'islam traditionnel et délégitimer les chefs religieux locaux, par rapport justement à leur position peu claire sur l'esclavage par ascendance dans la région de Bakel précisément.Et est-ce qu'au Sénégal les jihadistes du Jnim essayent de jouer les castes dites inférieures contre les castes dites supérieures ? Il est clair que le Jnim, à travers cette révolte de certaines castes dites inférieures, il est clair que les éléments du Jnim pourraient s'appuyer sur ce clivage pour se présenter comme des protecteurs des communautés, mais aussi comme une forme de théologie de libération basée sur le salafisme. Contrairement à l'islam traditionnel qui n'a pas été assez incisif dans sa condamnation du système de castes et de l'esclavage par ascendance.Alors vous rappelez cette petite phrase du Premier ministre Ousmane Sonko, c'était lors de la campagne des législatives, en novembre 2024. Il disait « Vous connaissez la situation dans la sous-région. Aujourd'hui, la priorité, c'est l'est du Sénégal ». Quelle est à vos yeux la stratégie que doit adopter l'État sénégalais pour faire face à la menace jihadiste ? Je pense que l'État sénégalais devrait renforcer davantage la présence des forces de sécurité dans les régions frontalières en construisant davantage de bases autour de la rivière de Falémé.La rivière qui fait frontière entre le Mali et le Sénégal…La rivière qui fait frontière. Mais aussi en parlant aux populations, parce qu'on se rend compte que les populations ne sont pas conscientes de la présence de la menace. Il faudrait aussi naturellement renforcer la coopération transfrontalière avec le Mali et la Mauritanie, ce qui est entamé avec les visites récentes des élites militaires sénégalaises en terre malienne. Mais aussi, je crois que le gouvernement ne doit pas oublier les campagnes de sensibilisation auprès des chefs communautaires. Parce que justement, cette jeunesse sénégalaise, qui développe une forme de résilience par rapport aux groupes extrémistes, est toujours dans cette double quête. Il y a la quête de sens que pourrait remplir les confréries soufies. Et il y a la quête de chance qui pourraient être des opportunités économiques, le développement de l'entrepreneuriat et le développement des politiques favorisant l'emploi des jeunes.

Malcolm explores John chapter 13, where Jesus washes his disciples feet and then tells them to do likewise. One of the best ways we can be like Jesus is to serve. John is an incredible book, written by the disciple. It has incredible truths and statements that Jesus made about himself. It all reveals his glory and power, that you may believe and have life in his name. John writing regarding of the purpose of this books says “Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. 31 But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” John 20:30&31 Our prayer is that through this series we all may come and grow in our belief that Jesus is the Messiah, and that by believing we may have life in his name.

Welcome to the Aphasia Access, Aphasia Conversations Podcast. I'm Ellen Bernstein Ellis, Director Emeritus of the Aphasia Treatment Program at Cal State East Bay in the Department of Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences, and a member of the Aphasia Access Podcast Working Group.  Aphasia Access strives to provide members with information, inspiration and ideas that support their aphasia care through a variety of educational materials and resources. Brief topic intro I'm today's host for an episode that will feature Dr Felicity Bright. We'll discuss her research looking at factors impacting wellbeing,  engagement and hope. Guest bio   Felicity Bright is a registered speech language therapist and associate professor in rehabilitation at Auckland University of Technology in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Her research examines cultures of care, and in particular, how the cultures and practices in rehabilitation respond to the needs and priorities of patients and those who support them. She has a particular interest in stroke and in the needs and experiences of those with communication impairment through her work, Felicity seeks to support practitioners services and rehabilitation organizations and to provide better person centered care. Listener Take-aways In today's episode you will: Explore how qualitative research promotes the nuanced study of meaningful clinical practice Consider cultural differences in well-being and what this might mean for how we work with people with aphasia and their support networks Reflect on the importance of having discussions with patients about hope and well-being Discuss how culture and organizations impact healthcare practice for individuals with aphasia Show notes edited for conciseness Ellen Bernstein-Ellis Felicity, welcome to our show. Thank you for agreeing to be our guest today. Felicity Bright  Thank you for having me. It's great to be here. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Welcome Felicity. We're going to start today with  an icebreaker question. The one you selected for today is, “Do you have  a favorite book or movie about aphasia? Felicity Bright  It was hard to choose one. Actually, I was just looking at my bookshelf and I went back to myself as a fairly new speech and language therapist quite a few years ago now. One that was really transformative for my practice was Talking about Aphasia by Suzie Parr and Sally Bing.  It's a classic, but it was a beautifully written book that really opened my eyes to the experiences of people with aphasia beyond all the technical work that we'd learned in university and so on, but it brought to life the humanity of the people who have aphasia, and really helped me rethink why I do what I do, and what the real impacts of aphasia can be for people. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Yes, that's a beautiful book that brings that all to the forefront. And I want you to say the title and author again, in case I spoke over you a moment ago, Felicity Bright The book is Talking about Aphasia and the authors are Susie Parr, Sally Bing and Sue Gilpin with Chris Ireland, Ellen Bernstein-Ellis We'll put that (i.e. citation)  into the reference list on our speaker notes. So thank you. And as we start today's interview, I was wondering if you'd like to share your path from clinician to researcher, because we've had several guests who have started in clinical work and then came to their doctoral work and research a little bit later. So,  I'd love it if you could share that with our listeners. Felicity Bright Sure. So I worked as a speech and language therapist in New Zealand. We are speech language therapists. I worked in a range of neurological settings, from acute stroke neurosurgery, did a little bit of ICU, did some rehab in inpatient services and in community, and really enjoyed that work, but I'd always had a long standing interest in research. I was a bit of a geek, you know, When I was in training, that was, that was me,  I was the geek. And so I'd always kind of expected at some point I would go down the research track. It was prompted after I had my first baby, and my work required me to either go back full time or to not work. And so at that point, I chose to not go back to work full time, and a research job came up at Auckland University of Technology, and I'd followed their work for a while. We don't do speech therapy here, it was rehabilitation research, and I was offered an opportunity to be a research officer doing interventions as part of a randomized control trial with people with traumatic brain injury. And so that kind of gave me the space to bring together some clinical work, but also some research work. It gave me the opportunity to do my Masters alongside this with my fees paid. So that was fantastic. And it really solidified for me that I was quite happy and enjoyed being in that kind of clinical research space. And so I've been in the university now for 15, nearly 16 years Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Wow, that's a great story. So now you have a 15 year old, right? Felicity Bright I have a 16 year old who is now taller than I am. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis Well, thank you for sharing that.  I'm just really looking forward to a discussion around some, what I consider critical but hard to define and challenging to research topics. like engagement, wellbeing and hope.  I want to start by asking, how did you end up researching a topic like engagement or hope? You did say during our planning meeting that you research things that you're bad at, which made me laugh. So that sounds like some courageous and reflective exploration. So maybe talk a little more about that. Felicity Bright Yeah, I am a bit of a selfish researcher. I research the things that I find tricky and a little bit hard, because for me, I want to learn how can I do better at this? How can I help my students learn how to be better in these areas? How can I help clinicians not make the mistakes that  I've made. I guess trying to be a better clinician has been at the heart of a lot of the work that I do. And you know, when I was working full time in clinical practice, I had patients who would stick with me where I just felt I let them down. They had such a short window of rehabilitation access. They were living with stroke for the rest of their lives. They maybe had eight or 12 weeks of speech therapy. There were just times when I really felt I missed the mark for them, when they didn't get the best rehab they could have had. And it was when I was working in the university in this randomized control trial of goal setting interventions after traumatic brain injury that it started to help me reflect on some of the why I was maybe having some of the challenges I was having. So in this trial, which was quite prescribed because it's a randomized control trial, I was noticing that patients seem to be engaging with these interventions a lot more than the people who I worked with in clinical practice, and that kind of surprised me a little bit. I also noticed that-- we were using Mark Ylvisaker's approach to goal setting around what  is meaningful identity based goal setting--and people were identifying hopes and goals and dreams that would have left me panicking as a speech and language therapist. What do I do about this? But it made me realize, actually, I didn't need to panic about that, and there were ways to engage with people about their hopes and dreams that honored those hopes and dreams, that kept them alive. But also, I could see ways that  I could work with this. I could bring my speech therapy hat and help people. And so it highlighted to me that maybe the things that I had perceived to be difficult or issues, didn't need to be and there were ways to think about these things differently and ways to work differently to better support people. So working on this trial, and I did some quite structured reflection around that with some of my colleagues, writing in auto ethnography around this, gave me the opportunity to reflect on these areas, but also highlighted that there was the real opportunity to do more nuanced and more detailed research that would bring to life different ways that we could support people to hold hope, to engage in rehabilitation that is meaningful and that might be able to produce some quite tangible suggestions to support clinicians and to support the people with stroke who we work with. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  I just want to say that these intangible, some what we call intangible topics that you've tackled, you always seem to end with tangible suggestions, and that's what I have found so inspiring. And we're going to circle back to hope in a few more questions. But, I just want to say, not only has my clinical thinking been informed and inspired by your research topics, but I've also just learned so much from the variety of qualitative methodologies that you've used in your work. I was wondering if you could share how you developed your expertise in qualitative research, maybe even offer some tips to people wanting to develop their own skill set. And okay, maybe I'm being a little selfish interviewer. You just said selfish researcher, but I found this challenging, and I've been trying to dip my toe, or I've fallen in head first,  trying to develop my skill set around qualitative research. What's your advice?  Felicity Bright  I was really fortunate. I came into research, into a team that had qualitative expertise and that used a variety, but not a wide variety, of different qualitative approaches. And it was a team, and still is a team, that has really high standards for methodological rigor. So to us, it's really important to do research that is robust and rigorous and that anchors back to the underpinning theory and philosophy that underlies each of the approaches that we use. But I was also really lucky in my research that I had supervisors and bosses who really supported innovation, who didn't tell me, no, this is how we do things, who didn't expect me to come into a study and do it just as they had told me to do. But they created the space for me to explore when I was working as a clinical researcher, but also as a master's and as a PhD student. Really had no issues when I said I'm going to go to the library, and I would just sit in the library and read qualitative textbooks and come back with a completely hair brained idea, but that actually turned into something that was really interesting and meaningful. So the Voice Centered Relational Approach that I've used a number of times came from sitting in the library one afternoon and just reading Feminist Research Methodology books. And I think one of my tips would be read outside speech and language therapy. There's amazing work that is happening, not just in the health disciplines or education spaces, but I love reading health sociology journals. I get notifications of a number of different journal types that alert me to different work. One of my recent projects I used Applied Tensions Analysis, which I'd never heard of, but I had a notification come across for a paper about domestic violence settings and kind of how services work. That's not in my area of research or clinical expertise, but there was something within that abstract that made me go, oh, there's an idea there that is similar to the ideas that I'm trying to get at in my stroke research. And so reading widely, I use Twitter a lot as a way of, kind of coming up to date with different research. I use trial and error. I've tried things and got them terribly wrong. I tried Grounded Theory  for about a year for my Masters, and it was atrocious. But also I found that doing research with people with aphasia pushes you to be innovative. A lot of the methodologies as they are published don't necessarily quite fit with the types of interviews or the types of data that we have, and so for me, that's provided an opportunity to test and do things differently. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis I mean, that's an inspiring response and encouraging support. So thank you. During our planning discussion, you also referred me to the Life Thread model and the 2008 article by Ellis Hill, Payne and Ward. What a wonderful article. So thank you for that. I was particularly taken with its implications for clinical practice and how it might guide us in asking questions in a better way to help us understand the social realities of our clients, to prioritize that. To understand how important the social reality is for our clients. Could you please share with our listeners some of the core concepts of the Life Thread model and how it's informed your work? Because I do see the connection there. Felicity Bright  Yeah, I came across this, Carolyn Alice Hill, who developed it, I think, as part of her PhD, was a collaborator of one of my PhD supervisors, and so Cath put me onto it. But the Life Threads model is about identity. And Carolyn's work was in stroke, and she was kind of talking to how identity changes and develops over time. And the Life Threads model talks to how our lives and our identities are made up of many threads, and those threads, they can change over time. But when there's a traumatic event like a stroke, it can cause some threads to break or be frayed, and that can be really challenging. We know there's a lot of work around aphasia and identity construction and identity loss, that's come around. But also what we know is that stroke can also prompt people to think about what are the threads that they want to continue post stroke.  Maybe there are some threads, I found in my hope research, where people are saying,”I don't want to be that person anymore. That's not something that I value”, and for them, sometimes the stroke could be an opportunity to rethink what are the threads that I now want to bring into my life as I weave this new identity of somebody post stroke, but still continues threads that have come through from before the stroke. We know from the hope research that I was doing that it was often really hard for people to see these threads.  It kind of felt like there was a pre-stroke life and a post-stroke life, and that there was quite a disruption. Those threads were cut. And so for me, it prompted questions about how do our conversations as clinicians help people identify the threads that are important for them to thread through their life. What are the new threads that they want to pick up on? You know, some of the work I've done, and we will talk about this a bit later on, around life after stroke, has highlighted how actually a lot of the conversations that happen between clinicians focus around things like tasks and activities and doing things, but there isn't necessarily a lot of conversation about identity or about what is meaningful and what do people want to carry through, and how can clinicians support that? And I would say that if we can kind of tune into the threads that matter to people or that people want to matter in their lives, it gives us a chance to tailor therapy to be much more personalized, more meaningful and more engaging, and I would suggest, probably leads to better outcomes for people. What we know from quite a bit of the research, not just my research, but other work, is that people are often doing this identity work on their own, without support. And we know that it's really hard, because our identities are social and they're relational, and they occur through connection and through communication, all of these things that are disrupted by aphasia, often. And so I think the Life Threads model really prompts us to think how can we as clinicians, support people to engage in conversations about identity, and how can we overtly, really attend to supporting identity within the work that we do. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Wow, that's beautiful. And yes, I think there's been, fortunately, a growing understanding of the importance of looking at the lack of support for this identity work with us with our clients, and I can really see how the Life Threads model has played an important role in your thinking and research. I recommend our readers to the article because it has some great examples of how to maybe flex the way you ask questions to help understand the narrative better. So I think it's, a marvelous article, I just want to take a moment and let our listeners know about the fabulous interview that you did with Michael Biel on the ANCDS podcast where you discussed engagement and ways you might incorporate Goal Attainment Scaling to help our clients establish meaningful goals.  I'll put the link to that, along with the citations to all of the work we're discussing today in our show notes. That also gives me a chance to say I don't have to cover everything today, because he did a really good job on those topics. But at the end of that podcast with Michael, you highlighted what was coming next, and that was your work on wellbeing. You've been exploring, and this is a quote by you, “what does it look like to explicitly attend to holistic, long term wellbeing?” Can you discuss some of the takeaways from your 2024 article, Psychosocial Well being After Stroke in Aotearoa, New Zealand, a Qualitative Meta-synthesis with your co authors, Ibell-Roberts and Wilson. Maybe we can just start by talking about the term psychosocial wellbeing. That's an important one to understand, but it can vary depending on one's cultural context.  Just to start with that, so yeah, good luck with all of that! Felicity Bright  It's a massive question, and it's funny, I started with the term psychosocial wellbeing, and I really intentionally used the language of psychosocial to kind of move away from thinking about just psychological wellbeing, which tended to be framed more from a mood perspective. And so I really wanted to be attending to some of the emotional, and the social, and the relational elements of wellbeing. But actually, I've now dropped the psychosocial because what we found is, when we talk to our people with stroke in the community, as part of our research, that term is completely meaningless to them, but the term wellbeing is something that resonates. Wellbeing is a really, firstly, a really nebulous term, but it's also really multifaceted. And I guess the place we've come to is, we view wellbeing as kind of quite unique to an individual, but it's deeply relational, and it's influenced through connection with people, with their cultures and with their communities, and all of those areas need attention. Now, in this piece of work that you referred to, Qualitative Metasynthesis, we were looking across the literature in Aotearoa, New Zealand, when we look at all the work that's been done, looking at life after stroke, and living life after stroke, what do people say about wellbeing and that highlighted that there were a number of features. Now, one thing I want to flag is that within New Zealand, we have an indigenous population, the  Māori population of New Zealand, who have been here for centuries before Pakeha came and colonized New Zealand. And one of the things that's been really important in our work is to really make sure that we are upholding the voices of Māori, who are often either not included in research, or are involved in research that is not particularly culturally safe, or where their perspectives are kind of subsumed within the wider perspectives of the dominant Pakeha, or European culture. And so one of the things we've been really lucky to do with this is to have my colleague BJ Wilson, who was leading the Māori stream, so she engaged with our  Māori data and literature uniquely. So we upheld that in its own right. That's context, because I'm going to talk to two different ways of thinking about wellbeing, one that was general from all of the literature and one that was specific to Māori . So when we look across all of the New Zealand literature, including the  Māori literature, we kind of saw there were probably four key areas that seemed to matter for wellbeing. Having strong connections with family, with old, pre stroke friends, but also with new friends, people who had also been through stroke and had some similar experiences. The sense of self that was connected, where people had a sense of being connected to who they were before the stroke, who they are now, and have an idea of who do I want to be in the future? And there was a sense of coherence, sense of thread that went between those identities. There was, when they experienced wellbeing,  a general sense of stability in the present. So things were okay now. It didn't mean that things were perfect. Some of the literature has suggested that people have to have positive emotions if they're going to have a sense of wellbeing. But actually, this qualitative meta synthesis, and the following qualitative work we've done has suggested, no, life is never 100% positive for any of us, but it's about having a balance of, yes, maybe there are some hard times, but also there are some good times as well.  That overall, there's an equilibrium of emotions, Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Right the duality, like be able to hold the duality Felicity Bright  Absolutely and kind of be okay with it, recognize that each of them has a time and a place. People also, when there was a sense of wellbeing, had a vision for the future, kind of a sense of moving towards that. So, yes,  they were okay in the present, but they also had a sense that the present is not my future for the rest of my life. I can see a life that is meaningful and enjoyable, and I'm taking steps towards it. But when we looked at the literature from Māori, and this was the analysis led by my colleague, Bobby-Jo, it also came through ideas like whanaungatanga and ngā hono. So whanaungatanga talks to the notion of connections, and ngā hono talks to connections and kind of belonging as well. And that was a sense of connection to whānau. So that is to people's wider kinship networks, not just blood relations like a family would be, but to kinship networks who are meaningful to the person. Having a sense of connection and belonging in their community, but also to places of meaning. So not just people, but to places. We also notice an idea around ko ahau, so being connected to their identity as Māori, to their cultural identity, in a sense that their cultural identity was recognized and was valued and supported by those around them, including healthcare professionals. Ideas of mana and wairua. So mana talks to the inherent standing and value that an individual has. And we all know that in a healthcare context, actually, that can be diminished because you become a patient in the healthcare context. But actually, for wellbeing, having that mana recognized and valued and upheld was really critical. And when one's personhood is understood and respected, that also helped with the sense of wairua, I guess, the spiritual essence of the person. And finally, was the notion of rangatiratanga, which is about autonomy and control and the ability to make decisions for oneself.  We can see that while there were similarities between our  Māori and our non-Māori groups, there were also cultural differences. So for wellbeing, for Māori, had wider integrations with their sense of whānau, their family and kinship networks, and for their culture and wellbeing was unique for each whānau within the research. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  I'd like to take a moment and have you elaborate a little bit more on that concept of the relationship of whānau to wellbeing, and how the whānau may be impacted by the stroke and subsequent aphasia. So often our family and support network does not receive direct attention. And here, you're elevating it quite a bit, so maybe you could speak to that a bit more. This is really top of mind for me, because I just went to a think tank meeting and hearing the stories of the care providers saying, I'm not sure I mattered in this equation of my spouse's health care rehabilitation.It just really struck me to hear that. So please, let's talk a little bit more about those values. Felicity Bright  Yeah, absolutely, for all of the people in our wellbeing research and in the previous hope research and so on that I've done, kind of people's whānau, their family and their social connections were absolutely critical to their recovery. And what came through, when we were looking at Māori experiences, was particularly also the intergenerational aspect, like sometimes within stroke services, we might think about the partner a little bit, not always particularly well. And I'll talk to that in a minute. But actually, we could also hear within our  Māori whānau, kind of the impacts for generations above and generations below, like the disruption to relationships between grandparents and grandchildren, and how the grandparent who may have aphasia, would usually have a really critical role in passing on family knowledge, or passing on Matauranga, kind of Māori cultural knowledge. But actually, because of the way the stroke affected them, they couldn't do that and take that role on, and so that impacted not just on the relationship, but also kind of on the identity and how Māori culture could be passed on through a whānau unit. But we've also heard exactly what you talk about. Our services are focused around the person with stroke rather than their whānau, but our services are also really short term. And so what  we can see from the research is that the family and the whānau become the connectors and the supporters. They are the consistent people. They hold, usually, deep knowledge of the person that often the healthcare professional doesn't hold. And we're doing some work at the moment around communication access in stroke units.  And even in the context of really significant aphasia, we're hearing about how whānau, even though they don't know about aphasia, they don't know about communication strategies.  But because they know how to read the person, they know their non verbal communication, they are actually really powerful translators, and hold the expertise that, actually, we don't hold as Speech and Language Therapists.  But we also know that the whānau are key in helping people access supports outside the healthcare system, and they do a lot of that navigation work that they are left to do because the healthcare system doesn't do it very well. And like you say, that's really challenging when the whānau's well-being is impacted themselves, you know, but that isn't seen consistently, and it isn't acknowledged. They very quickly become the carer, rather than, this is this person's wife and they've been married for 45 years. Or this is this person's husband, and they've got three young children at home. What is this going to mean for their relationship as a couple, for their relationship as parents? And so the families are talking to us about the exhaustion and the grief and the shock and the loss.  The relief that the person is alive, but again, the duality, there is relief, but there is also distress from the way that the stroke is impacting. And so we would really be calling for much more focus on everybody's wellbeing in this context, because if the wellbeing of whānau is not there, that impacts also on the wellbeing of the person. And I think we need to be shifting how we think about who is our client, whose needs do we serve, and what is our role in supporting the social and relational context around the person Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  That's beautiful. You really highlighted that role, the role of the whānau. And you also identify, Felicity, some other key contributors to wellbeing, and then how those might really impact our clinical goal setting, and I know that's always such an important aspect of how we think as clinicians. You have to document because we're in a system, which we'll talk about. Maybe you can share some other factors that you identified. Felicity Bright  Yeah, so I would be encouraging people to think about what are all the things that seem to support people's long term wellbeing? And those are things, like the relationships they hold within their family, but also within their social networks and within their work networks and so on, Thinking about the different emotions that people might be experiencing. Thinking about hope and what supports people to hold hope, and what do people hope for. Think about the connections that matter to people, the connections to people.  The cultural things that matter for people's wellbeing.  The connections to community activities and roles and so on. And think about the things that matter and are meaningful for individuals that usually fall outside our traditional SMART goals that we use in New Zealand, you know? Is it smart, specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time bound? What is it? I would be saying our goal should be focusing on what makes a good life for this person. And I would be encouraging you, if you're a clinician, looking at the goals that you're setting for the person.  Where is the good life in those goals? Is that up front and center and documented on the page that everyone can see it? That's something I learned through my goal setting research. That was my first research job, the importance of taking people's words, putting their words on a page, and keeping the words where everybody could see it. So where are the things that support wellbeing and that constitute a good life in our goal setting? Where are they in the interventions that we're doing? And I would be really encouraging people to reflect on how they are making the links explicit between the therapeutic tasks and the things that really matter to people. Because we know from the engagement work that when people can see the link between what they're doing in therapy and what matters to them in life, it is much more likely to be engaging and is much more likely to support them to persist, even when it's difficult, because they can understand this is why I'm doing this thing. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Right? Oh, that's beautiful. That really leads nicely into another 2024 article that you've put out focused on wellbeing.  And that's The physical wellbeing is our top priority: Healthcare professionals' challenges in supporting psychosocial wellbeing and stroke services. That article examines what seems to be a mismatch between knowing as clinicians that wellbeing is important, right, and being able to specifically address it within our clinical context. So, we say that we want to, and we know it's important, but the ability to get there, it's quite challenging. I was wondering if you could highlight some of your findings and key recommendations. And I think one of those actually addresses the graduate curriculum. I think that is really going back to the beginning, right? So, please share some of the wonderful work from that article. Felicity Bright So the context for this work is, this is part of a bigger program of research I'm doing around wellbeing after stroke. And this isn't specific to people with aphasia, but we do have people with aphasia in the research.  This research came from this issue-- we've got decades of literature that says that wellbeing is important. We've got a body of literature that says clinicians know wellbeing is important, but we are persistently not addressing wellbeing, and we've got decades of patient experience data that says this is an unmet need. So I was really interested in understanding, why have we got this persistent mismatch between what is known what matters and what is done, and so using an approach called institutional ethnography to try and get into the cultures and the structures that contribute to this, the rationale behind that is I didn't want to be creating solutions that were going to be completely unattainable in the healthcare context. And so I wanted to understand what's going on in the structure of the healthcare system, and how might we be able to work with that or push against that, to create different ways of thinking about how we work to deal with this persistent issue. So this project, this part of the research, we were looking at, why are clinicians not seeming to address wellbeing? And so we interviewed over 30 clinicians, I think, within this research for a whole range of healthcare disciplines. What came through really consistently was everybody wanted to support wellbeing. Everybody thought it was important, but there were a number of factors that made it difficult, and we traced as to why that was so. Firstly, we can look back to when the person first comes into the service. They come into the emergency department. There's often a code stroke that's called. It's a time of really busy early biomedical focus around investigating the stroke, doing assessments. The first couple of days are about intervening to prevent another stroke or to prevent complications. And dysphagia assessment is a classic in New Zealand. Dysphagia assessment is usually prioritized over communication assessment because it is seen to have particular risks and contribute to particular complications. And so we've got this really early biomedical focus as people come through the first few days. Then the focus shifts a little bit to assessments and treating impairment in function. And when we were interviewing clinicians, they were talking about wanting to give people the best chance of recovery, and that linked to ideas around neuroplasticity and the importance of early intervention for maximizing neuroplasticity and brain remodeling. There was a real focus on addressing the practicalities like toileting and dressing and what was needed to get people home. And there was a view often that emotions could wait. We need to do the practicalities first. We can do the other stuff later. This was a time of focusing on helping people survive, get through and get home, and it was in the context of really busy wards.  You know, sitting and watching nurses work, they are flat out. They are understaffed, and they have very limited time to be doing these aspects of work. But all of this contributes in this wider healthcare system that in New Zealand, and I suspect internationally, is short staffed, underfunded. We've got more demand than we've got beds. There is a really strong focus on getting people home. Now that's not inherently bad. A lot of our people that we speak to want to be home. Home is a more healing environment for many people than being in hospital. But when the focus is on getting people home, and that is usually about, is the person physically safe to be home, what can happen is other forms of work and other impacts of stroke can be devalued or be forgotten. And what we could see is people were doing work to support wellbeing within this, but it was kind of a particular form of wellbeing work. They would acknowledge a person's emotions, if they came up through interactions.  They would be responding to the emotional cues that people gave off that they were maybe feeling a bit uncertain or a bit upset. They talked about the importance of listening to the person, but that was often couched in a ‘I can listen for so long, but then I need to get on with my session', because the assessment, the treatment, the moving people forward wasn't important, and they would look to others to help. But the problem is, I would say this, this did a really good job of dealing with the tip of the iceberg, the emotions that were on the surface. But if we think back to what I've just said about what matters for wellbeing,  relationships, connection, sense of self, hope, those things are not addressed. What we saw was that wellbeing was other to the core work of any individual discipline. That didn't work for anybody. Didn't work for our patients that we spoke to. It didn't work for our clinicians as well, because we could also see the moral injury and the burnout that comes when you can't offer the services that you know people are wanting and needing. And when we think about what do we do about that? Well, yeah, it's tricky, and I don't have any great answers, but training and education is one thing. So when we think about wellbeing as seen as other to the core business of the disciplines, we need to look at, what is it that we're teaching our students? What are we saying is core work of speech therapy or of physiotherapy or of nursing. I've got the privilege of chairing the accreditation body for speech therapy in New Zealand, and we are rewriting our accreditation framework at the moment that essentially dictates what programs need to teach. We now have a requirement that programs are teaching about psychosocial wellbeing, and that programs are assessing students on how they're addressing psychosocial wellbeing. We need to look at how pathways for care develop, and where is wellbeing within policies, processes, structures, documentation, Basically, it's nowhere. But we also need to look structurally, and we can talk a little bit more about structures and organizations and cultures, because I think what this work reflects is a wider issue around the cultures and the organization of care that can make it really challenging for clinicians to work in the ways that they do. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Oh my gosh, it's a beautiful, beautiful response. I think my favorite quote, and there were many in that article, but the one that said “people with stroke live with the impacts of a stroke system that is designed around biomedical short term care for a lifelong condition and deserve services that support them to thrive, not just survive.” I think it's what we need to bring back into the curriculum for our students to understand. And all of this ties into the importance of understanding how cultures and organizations, like you just said, of care, might impact the therapy we provide to our clients. Why do cultures and organizations of care matter? You're alluding to that. I think we've just started to reflect on that. Felicity Bright  Yeah, I've often felt there's a real risk with the research that I do that we could end up pointing the finger at clinicians of not doing things as well as they could or as well as they should. But actually, we need to understand why is this? Why does it make sense for clinicians to prioritize dysphagia over communication? Why does it make sense to prioritize getting people home, over spending the time on addressing their wider wellbeing? And I've been really lucky to work with Deb Hersh and Stacey Attrill, we did a piece of work that looked at this in the context of how speech therapists enacted therapeutic relationships. And we started by delving into why do people work in the way that they do? We started to see the cultural elements. So the needs, for instance,  your allegiances to colleagues, to be a good team player, to maintain your legitimacy. And particularly for speech therapists, who often have a slightly tenuous role in stroke teams. Physios and OTs are important, but speech therapists often have to kind of fight to kind of have their voices heard, and so that can lead to speechies behaving in particular ways. We can also see how cultures of safety impact on what people prioritize. So Abby Foster has done some beautiful work around the cultures of aphasia care and acute care, and highlighting that actually the priority for physical safety and managing dysphagia risk is privileged over the culture of or a need to think about what is the risk associated with communication and poor communication and people not having communication access. If we understand why people work as they do, and if we understand how the cultures and the structures work, then we can start to unpack them and think about what are the ways that we might be able to do things differently. You know, these cultural factors are very real, and none of them are inherently wrong, like it's not a bad thing that we're trying to prevent people getting aspiration pneumonia. That's really, really important, but we need to understand how these things shape practice and the unintended consequences that they might have for what is not valued and for what work isn't prioritized, and what outcomes don't actually seem to really matter in these contexts. And when we start to make these visible, then that opens up space to think about, how might we be able to do things differently, where we can maybe hold all of these things. And you know, in my work that I'm doing around wellbeing, that's the next phase of our work, is working with clinicians to think about, how might we be able to do things differently, so that it's not one or the other, it's not a dichotomy.  But how do we create space for all of these things to be viewed as important and to be prioritized? Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  You've started to dig into that already, because you have yet another 2024 article that you co-authored with Kayes, Soundy and Drown,  Limited conversations about constrained futures: exploring clinician conversations about life after stroke in inpatient settings. And that examines how clinicians talk about the future with their clients. It analyzes 300 hours of observation of clinical interactions, along with 76 interviews with people with aphasia and 37 clinicians. I just want to say that's an astounding undertaking. So, as I read it, it felt like almost an extension of your 2013 and  2020 articles looking at hope, because you connected how what we say can impact how our clients see their future possibilities. Can you share some of the themes you constructed from all of that amazing data collection? I mean, I'm sorry, I thought 15 interviews were a lot, so then I saw this, and I'm like, oh my goodness, amazing. Felicity Bright  It was a pretty massive piece of work, but it was a real privilege to be able to sit and just observe interactions. And I'm so grateful to our people with stroke, many of whom were like two or three days post stroke, and they had the stranger come along and sit there and observe them for 12 hours, but also to our clinicians, who were quite vulnerable in that process of having somebody observe and analyze what they were doing. But at the same time, I think that work is really valuable for looking at what is going on. What we could see is that the conversations that were being had tended to focus on quite a short term future, and we termed this theme constrained temporal horizons. When clinicians were talking about the future, the vast majority of those conversations were about the immediate future. For doctors and nurses--for nurses, it was often what needs to happen in this shift. For allied health and for doctors, it was what needs to happen before you discharge from our service into the next service. And for some allied health, it might be the first few days at home, but there was a view that talking about the longer term future beyond that should be done by other clinicians who might have more knowledge of what life could look like at that stage. We also found that the talk about quite a constrained future was in the context of actually very limited talk, in the first place. So when we think about communication access, for instance, we think, oh, people with aphasia aren't getting very good communication. Actually, lots of people with stroke are not getting very good communication. Again, thinking about cultural factors, but actually communication is not happening well in stroke units, or, I think within the wider healthcare system.  You know, we've got a very task focused, medically focused situation. And so the conversations that were happening were on topics that were led by healthcare professionals, on the topics that they felt mattered-- the tasks they needed to do, the body structures and impairments. The goals that were set were about what needs to happen before somebody gets home. There was little talk about emotions. There was little talk about how you're feeling about what's going on, or what it might be like for you or for your family when you go home. And so this talk about the emotions and so on and future possibilities was left to patients and to families to raise. And instead, the conversations tended to focus on what the healthcare professionals saw as essential topics for the episode of care. We certainly did see some conversations about the future. So I don't want to be disparaging, and I also want to acknowledge the very partial nature of research. I did not see every single interaction. I know that a lot of these quite personal conversations often happen in things like the shower, when the nurses or the OTS are helping the person shower.  That's one of the few private spaces on the ward. And so I want to acknowledge that my analysis is based on a limited data set, and it isn't based on all the conversations that happened, but certainly there was a trend towards limited conversations. We did see that clinicians would open some doors about the future. So they would talk about possible prognosis in the context of things like upper limb prognostic testing that is offered in some hospitals in New Zealand. We would see clinicians talk about what was meaningful to people, particularly in a context where the patient was struggling to engage, but often when the clinicians were talking about this wider future in this context, it was done to try and plant seeds about what the healthcare professional thought was realistic, and it was done to try and help the person engage in rehabilitation in the context of maybe struggling to engage at the best of times. So I think what we could see was that conversations were limited. They were limited conversations about short term, constrained futures that didn't necessarily set people up with hope for the future, with a sense of possibility, with a sense of even starting that process about what matters, to thinking about what matters to me, what do I want life to look like? Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Wow, and that really just circles us back to that concept of hope. Your work in hope has just been so meaningful to me. I've been really honored to be the guest lecturer speaking about aphasia to our counseling course that's taught by Dr Shubha Kashinath at Cal State, East Bay. And I've included, from the beginning, your work on hope. I just feel it's critical to give our students ways to understand and think about this construct and the role they can have in offering some hope building clinical interactions. I'd like to close this interview by having you discuss some of your first work that I had the honor to read, and some of the hope affirming strategies that you suggest in your 2020 article. Because I just think that's really a gift. Felicity Bright  One of the things that really fascinated me in this work was how our people with aphasia in the research talked about how they look at their clinician and they are reading them to see, are you somebody who's going to give me hope or not? And if they didn't feel their clinician was going to support their hope or was going to help give them hope, or was going to disparage their hopes, they would shut down and they wouldn't share. And so I think, one of the things is to be reflecting on yourself.  What are the messages that you are giving about how you are a safe person to talk to, about whether you are somebody that they can engage in these risky conversations about? I think there's a couple of things as well. We need to recognize that just because somebody says they hope for something doesn't mean that they expect it to happen. We all have unrealistic hopes and expectations. You know,  psychologist colleagues talk to me about how actually having unrealistic hope is part of being psychologically adjusted, and why should that be different for people with stroke? Who are we to say that we hold the expertise. Now, that's not to say that there aren't challenges. So sometimes you might need to do a bit of a balance of, oh, is this something I need to engage in a conversation about? You know, an example is, if somebody is going to invest quite a bit of money in something that actually, there's no evidence to support and could potentially be problematic. There's a really good guideline I found from Christy Simpson, who's an ethicist, who talked about what are the positive effects that this hope has for people? What would be the impacts of taking it away, both positive, but also, what are the negative things that it would do? And so actually engaging in a bit of a risk analysis to think critically about what is holding this hope doing for somebody. Linked to that in the latest paper we did around recalibrating hope, it really highlighted to me the importance of trusting people to often recalibrate their own hopes. So I went back to my original participants from my 2013 research a couple of years later, and I looked at their experiences of hope over that time. And what we found was most of them recalibrated their hopes. They hoped for different things over that time, and they had done that as they engaged in different activities, as they tried things, as they considered their progress, as they rethought what mattered to them. And so that really highlighted, to me, the need to trust people, but it also highlighted the need to think about, how do we support a context that supports people to do that recalibration. Those who were more likely to recalibrate and hold both hope and realism together were people who had social networks, who were engaging in meaningful activities, and who had a sense of purpose and possibility. One of my participants didn't have that. They had lost their social connections. They had no activities in which they were engaging in what was meaningful, and their hope had shrunk. And so it talks to me again, those earlier conversations we've had about well being, thinking about what's meaningful, what supports wellbeing, that's exactly the same thing that supports hope. How are we supporting people's social wellbeing? How are we supporting their relational wellbeing? How are we helping them connect to what is meaningful and what is possible, not just to their impairments, and maybe what is not working so well. I think it's really important to be explicitly thinking about, what is it that helps people bring joy, have joy? What brings them peace in the present? And how can we help them have that sense that things are okay, even if they're not perfect, but also help them have that sense of looking to a future that's possible. Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Okay, we only have a minute or two left, but I'm going to throw this last question out to you. Felicity, if you had to pick only one thing that we need to achieve urgently as a community of providers, of professionals, what would that one thing be? This is almost like your elevator pitch. You got 60 seconds here. So, so Felicity Bright  So my one thing, in a long, complex sentence, is that speech and language therapists need to reprioritize communication and supporting people to live well after stroke and aphasia, and they need to consider how we model to our colleagues and to our patients and families, and how we support cultures of care that value relationships and relational work, that value and support communication, and that value and support wellbeing.    Ellen Bernstein-Ellis  Oh my goodness, well said, Felicity.

In this talk Malcolm encourages us to keep pressing on in our faith; on our own personal races to Jesus. he reminds us that our reward in heaven is Jesus, not anyone else! The bible speaks a lot about how Christianity is like being an athlete. We all have our race to run and are called to fix our eyes on Jesus. So throughout the summer we'll be looking at what it means to be diligent in training, running with perseverance, enduring hardships and "forgetting what lies behind, straining forward to what lies ahead, pressing on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."

Jonah had a massive ministry, but a sinful heart. Malcolm completes our series in Jonah chapter 4 showing us how Jonah was a work in progress and so are we. Jonah is a great story with so many insights into our heart attitudes, God's compassion and His relentlessness to forgive those who repent. The Lord is a God of boundless compassion not just for ‘us' (the people of God) but for everyone. Jonah is the object of God's compassion throughout the book but so also are the pagan sailors and the Ninevites. At the end is the question – “Should I not pity Ninevah?” this leaves us with the question – Do we have hearts of compassion for others, like God does? Jonah at times seems way more concerned with the plant that perished (4:10) than with concern for the Ninevites. This incredible compassionate character of God is contrasted with Jonah's compassion, yet rather than leave Jonah to his whims, God even extends compassion to him, using him as a vessel to see his compassion enacted in the world, just like we should today.

 Après un scrutin contesté, après le rejet par la Cour Constitutionnelle des requêtes qui lui avaient été soumises, notamment parce que le vote ne s'est pas tenu sur l'ensemble du territoire, Assimi Goïta a porté sa 4e République sur les fonts baptismaux, samedi 22 juillet. Ce 24 juillet au matin, la presse regarde vers la prochaine présidentielle. « La carte Assimi est-elle jouable ? » s'interroge Maliweb. Pour le site, les rumeurs se font plus persistantes sur la probable candidature du Colonel Assimi Goïta. « La charte de la Transition ne l'autorise pas », mais « la nouvelle Constitution ne l'interdit pas » écrit Maliweb. Le colonel Assimi Goïta qui s'est rendu à Kayes le 23 juilletOui, l'encre du décret de promulgation à peine sèche, il s'est rendu hier « dans la cité des rails », raconte l'Essor du Mali. Parmi les annonces, la « relance du trafic ferroviaire » et le début de la « construction du deuxième lycée public de la ville ». Le site Sahel Tribune rappelle lui que « dans le programme des autorités de transition figure aussi la construction de 13 lycées publics, dont 2 lycées d'excellence à Kati et Ségou ».  Jeune Afrique s'interroge : « Assimi Goïta est-il déjà en précampagne ? » « Ses déplacements à l'extérieur du palais présidentiel de Koulouba et de Kati, son fief, se comptent sur les doigts de la main », poursuit le site. « Avant ce déplacement à Kayes, seules Nioro du Sahel, en juillet 2022, Koutiala, sa région d'origine, et Ségou, à l'occasion de sa timide campagne pour le référendum constitutionnel, en juin, avaient accueilli Assimi Goïta, d'ordinaire peu enclin à quitter Bamako ». Le colonel est aussi annoncé en fin de semaine à Saint-Pétersbourg pour le sommet Russie Afrique. « De quoi peaufiner sa stature de chef d'État en vue de la présidentielle de 2024. »Pour Brema Ely Dicko, de l'Université des lettres et des sciences humaines de Bamako, cité par le journal, « la vraie campagne d'Assimi Goïta ne pourra commencer que s'il démissionne », quatre mois avant la fin de la transition. « Il suffirait que le chef de l'État démissionne de l'Armée pour avoir le droit d'être éligible à la présidence de la République » confirme Maliweb. Pour Le Pays au Burkina Faso, « avec cette Constitution, le Mali passe d'un régime semi-présidentiel à un régime hyper-présidentiel ». Mais « le tout, poursuit Le Pays, n'est pas de réussir à faire adopter une nouvelle Constitution (…)  Le nouveau texte divise tellement les Maliens que le président Assimi Goïta et ses partisans feraient mieux d'avoir le triomphe modeste (…) et poursuivre le dialogue avec les partisans du " Non " ». Au Gabon, 19 candidats en lice pour la présidentielle La liste a été publiée le 23 juillet au soir par le Centre gabonais des Élections après une séance plénière tenue à Libreville de 18h à minuit, écrit Gabon actu. Le 26 août prochain, Ali Bongo Ondimba aura donc parmi ses 18 adversaires l'opposante Paulette Missambo et Alexandre Barro Chambrier. Le site indique qu'un meeting du candidat a été « violemment saboté » par des jeunes à Franceville. Certains étaient « armés de gourdins prêts à cogner ». « Un des sympathisants du candidat a été molesté » ajoute Gabon Actu qui affirme que « la police n'est pas intervenue ».  Kinshasa s'apprête à accueillir les 9e Jeux de la Francophonie« Près de 40 pays doivent normalement y prendre part » nous dit Actualité.CD. Pour le site, « la RDC n'a pas droit à l'erreur ». Ces jeux lui avaient été attribués en 2019, puis reportés en 2021 pour cause de Covid, et une deuxième fois en 2022 parce que le pays n'était pas prêt. « Le pays a fait des efforts considérables pour accueillir ces jeux, poursuit Actualité.CD, et, il faudra en faire aussi pour décrocher des médailles ! Car malgré une participation massive des athlètes et artistes, la RDC n'a glané que trois médailles, dont une en or aux derniers Jeux, à Abidjan. » Cette année, « avec la participation de près de 300 sportifs et artistes, les chances des médailles sont réelles (…) Mais la préparation et la motivation ne sont pas véritablement de qualité ».En attendant, rendez-vous vendredi 28 juillet pour la cérémonie d'ouverture au stade des Martyrs à Kinshasa. L'entrée est gratuite, avec 80 000 places assises. Cependant, il faudra s'armer de patience. Le Comité national de ces Jeux demande au public d'arriver au stade dès 14h.  Les organisateurs promettent un spectacle haut en couleur.

MEMUR KADİR'İN HİKAYESİ

La région de Ménaka subit depuis mars les assauts de la branche sahélienne du groupe État islamique (EIGS) qui tente de s'installer durablement dans cette partie du nord-est du Mali, proche du Niger et du Burkina Faso. Une région jusqu'alors sécurisée par des groupes armés maliens signataires de l'accord de paix de 2015 et alliés des autorités de Bamako, mais où les jihadistes du Groupe de soutien à l'Islam et aux musulmans (GSIM ou Jnim en arabe), lié à al-Qaïda au Maghreb islamique, contrôlent également certaines parties du territoire. C'est principalement à ses rivaux d'al-Qaïda que l'EIGS s'attaque depuis des mois, massacrant au passage des centaines de civils. Des affrontements sont régulièrement signalés, et l'assise de l'EIGS semble se renforcer inéluctablement, menaçant la sécurité de ces régions du nord du Mali et, plus globalement, du Niger, du Burkina Faso, et de toute la sous-région. Guillaume Soto-Mayor est chercheur associé au Middle East Institute, spécialiste des groupes jihadistes au Sahel et en Afrique de l'Ouest. Il estime que c'est un tournant majeur, pour l'unité du Mali et la sécurité de toute l'Afrique de l'Ouest, qui est en train de se jouer. Depuis mars, le groupe État islamique est à l'offensive dans le nord-est du Mali, il contrôle deux cercles sur trois dans la région de Ménaka et mène des attaques de plus en plus près de la ville de Ménaka et même, tout récemment, de Gao. Est-ce que vous pourriez nous donner un aperçu de l'état des forces actuelles de l'EIGS ? Guillaume Soto-Mayor : Pour évaluer la présence et la force du groupe, il est intéressant de mesurer sa capacité simultanée d'action et de présence, aussi bien dans les régions de Gao et de Ménaka, mais également de plus en plus dans l'Oudalan, dans la région des Trois frontières, au nord du Burkina Faso, dans laquelle le groupe EI qui avait été chassé par al-Qaïda il y a deux ans, met de nouveau pied, et dans lequel il affronte la branche d'al-Qaïda qui s'appelle Ansarou al-Islam, mais également dans les régions de Tombouctou, dans les communes de Gossi et de Hombori, près de Douentza, où l'État islamique est actuellement à l'offensive contre la Katiba Macina et la Katiba Serma. C'est-à-dire que le groupe se sent suffisamment fort pour affronter Al-Qaïda, principalement, dans toutes ces régions à la fois.  On a une idée du nombre d'hommes, du matériel ? Des images récentes de l'allégeance de la province de l'État islamique au Sahel, au nouveau leader de l'État islamique, à Andéramboukane, montre environ 150 à 200 combattants présents, rien que dans cette zone qui est donc à l'est de la région de Ménaka. Et les différentes constitutions de katibas, dans les différentes régions que je viens d'évoquer, indiqueraient que le groupe a une capacité de déployer environ 1 000 à 1 200 combattants, mais c'est très compliqué à évaluer, donc ce sont des estimations. En tout cas, on est passé en quelques mois d'un groupe qui était désorganisé, éparpillé et désargenté, à l'été 2021, à un groupe qui est capable de réaliser une offensive multiple, d'avoir une progression territoriale extrêmement rapide, et tout ça pose véritablement question. Et ce renforcement de la branche sahélienne du groupe État islamique est synonyme de tragédie pour les civils : on parle, selon les estimations des communautés locales, de plus de 900 morts depuis mars. Sa présence et le contrôle territorial de l'État islamique s'accompagnent de violences accrues contre les civils. À chaque fois qu'ils arrivent dans de nouveaux territoires, ils lancent des ultimatums aux populations civiles : « vous êtes avec nous ou vous êtes contre nous ». C'est une vision sans compromis du jihad. On voit les cycles de représailles se multiplier, les exécutions sommaires dans toutes leurs zones d'opérations. Mais également les vols de bétail, les destructions de villages, etc. Les humanitaires sont également considérés comme des cibles légitimes, et donc dans ces zones où l'État malien est absent depuis des années, ce sont des milliers de personnes qui vont souffrir et qui souffrent déjà.   Face aux jihadistes du groupe État islamique, le MSA et le Gatia – deux groupes armés locaux signataires de l'accord de paix de 2015 – tentent de défendre les populations avec, plus récemment, les ex-rebelles de la CMA. Il y a aussi les jihadistes du Jnim, liés à al-Qaïda, qui ne veulent pas laisser leurs rivaux de l'EIGS s'implanter durablement dans ces régions de Ménaka et de Gao. En revanche, l'armée malienne est tout à fait absente. Comment est-ce que vous l'expliquez ?    C'est très difficile. On peut s'interroger peut-être sur la faiblesse ou les capacités réelles de l'armée malienne à intervenir. On peut évoquer un manque de confiance, ou de coopération entre les groupes armés présents dans cette zone et l'armée malienne. En tout cas, cette absence, notamment avec la présence de l'armée malienne à Ménaka, pose véritablement question, elle interroge… À Ménaka où les supplétifs russes de l'armée sont également déployés… Absolument. Cette coopération militaire est un choix souverain qu'il faut respecter, en tout cas, pour le moment, ce qui est certain, c'est que les groupes jihadistes progressent et que l'armée malienne ne semble pas avoir la volonté, et c'est ça qui interroge le plus, de répondre à cette progression. Ce que cela laisse aux populations, c'est un sentiment d'abandon total, d'un laisser-faire ou en tout cas d'un désintérêt de Bamako face à leur sort. ►À lire aussi : Grand Reportage - Mali : quand il ne reste que la fuite, récits de victimes Donc que l'EIGS prenne le contrôle de ces régions, où que des groupes locaux les repoussent, il y a selon vous un risque pour l'unité du Mali. Je serais prudent sur ces dimensions, mais oui, je pense que c'est un risque réel. Le conflit date maintenant de nombreuses années, les populations ont énormément souffert, et actuellement, il y a un appel général de toute la population du Nord, à combattre ces groupes. Et donc face au sentiment d'abandon de l'État malien, on remarque que même un général de l'armée malienne, le général Ag Gamou qui est aussi le responsable du Gatia, en appelle aux Touaregs de toute la région, c'est-à-dire également à des combattants étrangers au Mali, à venir les aider face à cette menace encore une fois existentielle pour les communautés. Le risque est donc immense pour le Mali, mais aussi pour le Niger, le Burkina et les autres pays ouest-africains ? Le pourquoi de ces capacités opérationnelles vient de la capacité du groupe EI à s'être renforcé d'un point de vue humain, avec la présence de combattants nigérians, mais aussi de combattants de la Libye, en plus petit nombre. Et deuxièmement, d'avoir récupéré de l'argent, d'avoir récupéré un soutien logistique, via un couloir de transmission très efficace, reliant le sud-est du Mali et la zone des Trois frontières, au nord-est du Nigeria, au nord de la région de Sokoto. Et ce couloir, la viabilité de cette transmission entre l'État islamique en Afrique de l'Ouest et l'État islamique au Sahara, montre la capacité du groupe à opérer conjointement, de concerts, dans son expansion opérationnelle. C'est véritablement un tournant pour la sous-région. C'est un tournant, car là, pour la première fois, vous avez un groupe qui est très bien interconnecté, qui est fort tactiquement, qui est capable d'affronter al-Qaïda sur l'ensemble de son territoire, et donc qui menace aussi bien l'Algérie que la Mauritanie, et également le reste du Burkina Faso. C'est une menace régionale que l'expansion de l'État islamique. C'est une double menace pour la région parce que c'est aussi une menace qui s'accompagne de l'expansion d'Al-Qaïda vers le sud, il ne faut jamais oublier ça ! Trois exemples très récents : une opération à la frontière togolaise et béninoise, une présence également dans la région de Kayes au Mali, dans cette région qui s'approche de la frontière sénégalaise et de la frontière mauritanienne, et une présence également de plus en plus signalée au nord du Ghana et au nord de la Côte d'Ivoire. Donc le retour en force de l'État islamique au centre du Sahel est accompagné malheureusement d'une expansion d'Al-Qaïda qui pourrait menacer les capitales aussi bien du centre au Sahel, que les populations du nord des pays côtiers dans les prochains mois, dans les prochaines années. ►À lire aussi : Le nord du Togo, une région davantage ciblée par les terroristes

This time we go Behind the Scenes with the fearless, highly talented singer Gilly Hamilton, whose career spanned 3 decades and encompassed the halcyon days of show business and variety. As a key member of the pop-music close-harmony trio The Kaye Sisters she appeared alongside most of the major entertainment stars of the 1970s through to the 1990s. Supporting Max Bygraves, the Kayes appeared in the 1978 Royal Variety, shared a long-running residency in London's West End and performed regularly on many of Max's top-rated television series With recollections of ATV's live ‘Saturday Variety' with Larry Grayson, not forgetting Bernard Manning on Granada's ‘The Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club', plus the travails of working cabaret all across Britain and the Middle East, Gilly's career is a remarkable eye-witness account of what it was really like to be treading the boards during the Golden Age of entertainment.

The biggest names in Hollywood and Broadway recorded for AFRS during the war years, The American Forces Network can trace its origins back to May 26, 1942, when the War Department established the Armed Forces Radio Service (AFRS). The U.S. Army began broadcasting from London during World War II, using equipment and studio facilities borrowed from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). The first transmission to U.S. troops began at 5:45 p.m. on July 4, 1943, and included less than five hours of recorded shows, a BBC news and sports broadcast. That day, Corporal Syl Binkin became the first U.S. Military broadcasters heard over the air. The signal was sent from London via telephone lines to five regional transmitters to reach U.S. troops in the United Kingdom as they prepared for the inevitable invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe. Fearing competition for civilian audiences the BBC initially tried to impose restrictions on AFN broadcasts within Britain (transmissions were only allowed from American Bases outside London and were limited to 50 watts of transmission power) and a minimum quota of British produced programming had to be carried. Nevertheless AFN programmes were widely enjoyed by the British civilian listeners who could receive them and once AFN operations transferred to continental Europe (shortly after D-Day) AFN were able to broadcast with little restriction with programmes available to civilian audiences across most of Europe (including Britain) after dark. As D-Day approached, the network joined with the BBC and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to develop programs especially for the Allied Expeditionary Forces. Mobile stations, complete with personnel, broadcasting equipment, and a record library were deployed to broadcast music and news to troops in the field. The mobile stations reported on front line activities and fed the news reports back to studio locations in London. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Entertainment Radio Stations Live 24/7 Sherlock Holmes/CBS Radio Mystery Theater https://live365.com/station/Sherlock-Holmes-Classic-Radio--a91441 https://live365.com/station/CBS-Radio-Mystery-Theater-a57491 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
