The Great Green Wall is one of the most ambitious environmental projects ever conceived, creating a vast belt of vegetation spanning Africa by 2030; from Senegal on the Atlantic to Djibouti on the Red Sea. It was heralded as Africa's contribution to the fight against climate change, reversing damage caused by drought, overgrazing and poor farming techniques. The regreening of 11 Sahel countries on the edge of the Sahara Desert would create millions of jobs, boost food security, and reduce conflict and migration. The plan was launched by the African Union in 2007, and despite political consensus, only 4% of the Great Green Wall had been completed by 2021. So what has gone wrong? What lessons have been learned, and will a change of strategy ensure its success by the end of the decade?

Eugenia Kargbo is Africa's first Chief Heat Officer. She was appointed by the government of Sierra Leone, and is responsible for helping people who are struggling from the effects of extreme heat and ‘burning, suffocating sunshine'. Sierra Leone isn't among Africa's warmest countries. Mali is thought to be the hottest country on the continent…and in the world. But Sierra Leone has been experiencing higher and higher temperatures in recent years. And Eugenia says it is a much less comfortable place to live today than when she was growing up. So, what solutions does she have for the heat in Sierra Leone? And could these be ideas that help people across Africa? #AfricaDaily

N°297 / 14 Mai 2023.Connaissez-vous notre site ? www.lenouvelespritpublic.frUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 11 mai 2023.Avec cette semaine :François Bujon de l'Estang, ambassadeur de France.Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut Français de Géopolitique.Nicole Gnesotto, vice-présidente de l'Institut Jacques Delors.Michaela Wiegel, correspondante à Paris de la Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.COMMENT LA DETTE A DISPARU DU DÉBAT PUBLICSelon les données de l'Insee publiées le 28 mars, la dette publique française a atteint 2.950 milliards d'euros fin 2022, soit 111,6 % du produit intérieur brut (PIB). Au rythme auquel l'État multiplie les dépenses, l'endettement des administrations publiques devrait franchir le seuil symbolique des 3.000 milliards dans le courant de l'année 2023. L'État n'a plus présenté un seul budget à l'équilibre depuis 1974 et le déficit public poursuit une ascension constante, avec une forte accélération à partir de la décennie 2000. Les administrations publiques françaises se sont endettées de 635 milliards sous Nicolas Sarkozy, un quinquennat marqué par la crise financière. La dette s'est ensuite creusée de 396 milliards avec François Hollande. La situation s'est détériorée de 700 milliards sous Emmanuel Macron, pour beaucoup en raison de la crise sanitaire du Covid-19. Un sondage de l'Ifop pour Acteurs publics, EY et l'Observatoire des politiques publiques révélait en novembre 2021 que 81 % des Français jugeaient le niveau d'endettement « inquiétant ». Pour autant, la maîtrise des dépenses publiques a totalement été éclipsée du débat politique lors de l'élection présidentielle qui s'est tenue au printemps 2022 et ne fait pas depuis l'objet de vifs débats.Le gouvernement compte aujourd'hui accélérer le désendettement de l'économie française en ramenant le ratio de la dette rapportée au PIB de 111,6 % du PIB à la fin de 2022 à 108,3 % en 2027, en dopant l'activité et en créant plus d'emplois. Pour réduire la dépense, Bercy compte également sur l'extinction du bouclier tarifaire et la fin des chèques énergie pour les ménages. Enfin, la Première ministre Elisabeth Borne a envoyé une lettre de cadrage à chaque ministère qui devront réduire de 5% leurs dépenses sans toucher à la masse salariale.Le 28 avril, Fitch, l'une des quatre principales agences chargées d'évaluer la solvabilité des États, a abaissé d'un cran la note de la France, à AA – avec perspective stable. En cause, non seulement la trajectoire de dette et de déficit du gouvernement, jugée sujette à caution, mais aussi « l'impasse politique et les mouvements sociaux (parfois violents) » que connaît le pays, a indiqué l'agence. Dans son avis, Fitch précise s'attendre à une amélioration « modeste » du ratio français de dette rapporté au PIB, en raison de « déficits relativement importants et de progrès modestes dans la consolidation budgétaire ». L'agence craint une croissance plus faible et des dépenses gonflées par l'inflation. Ce faisant, elle enfonce un coin dans le programme de stabilité, ce document présenté le 26 avril en conseil des ministres et qui doit être envoyé à Bruxelles, afin de détailler le chemin que la France compte suivre pour revenir aux 3 % de déficit public à l'horizon 2027. La décision d'une autre agence de notation, Standard & Poor's est attendue début juin. L'agence avait prévenu, fin 2022, que la France serait sanctionnée si la dette ne diminuait pas d'ici 2025.***TENSIONS FRANCO-ITALIENNES ET NOUVEAU PACTE ASILE ET MIGRATION DE LA COMMISSION EUROPÉENNELe ministre français de l'Intérieur Gérald Darmanin a estimé, le 4 mai, que la Première ministre italienne d'extrême droite Giorgia Meloni était « incapable de régler les problèmes migratoires sur lesquels elle a été élue ». Des propos qui ont suscité une nouvelle poussée de fièvre sur ce sujet qui empoisonne les relations diplomatiques entre les deux alliés, et provoqué l'annulation le même jour de la première visite à Paris du ministre italien des Affaires étrangères, Antonio Tajani. Celui-ci, jugeant ces propos « irresponsables », a exigé des excuses. Lors du conseil européen de mars Emmanuel Macron avait pourtant déclaré que les deux pays devaient agir ensemble par rapport à la nouvelle pression migratoire que subissaient l'Italie et l'Union Européenne. Une visite de Giorgia Meloni à l'Elysée était même envisagée pour la fin du mois de juin.En novembre, les deux pays avaient connu de fortes tensions lorsque le gouvernement Meloni, à peine au pouvoir, avait refusé de laisser accoster un navire humanitaire « Ocean Viking » de l'ONG SOS Méditerranée qui avait fini par être accueilli par la France à Toulon avec plus de 200 migrants à bord. L'épisode avait suscité la colère de Paris qui avait convoqué une réunion européenne pour que ce scénario inédit ne se reproduise pas. Selon le ministère italien de l'Intérieur, plus de 42.000 personnes sont arrivées par la Méditerranée en Italie cette année contre environ 11.000 sur la même période en 2022. Près de la moitié d'entre eux proviennent de pays francophones (Côte d'Ivoire, Guinée, Tunisie, Cameroun, Burkina Faso, Mali), selon le directeur général de l'Office français de l'immigration et de l'intégration, Didier Leschi.Les Européens sont d'accord sur le fait que les règles actuelles, datant de 2013 - le fameux « Règlement Dublin » - ne fonctionnent pas. La gestion des frontières extérieures, engorgée, repose sur une poignée de pays, les procédures d'asile ont des dizaines de milliers de dossiers en retard et il y a très peu de retours. Il y a deux ans, la Commission européenne avait présenté un « Pacte sur la migration et l'Asile », proposant notamment un plan de répartition entre les États membres proportionnellement à leur taille et leur économie, mais l'UE peine toujours à s'entendre pour l'adopter. Avec pour mot d'ordre : « l'équilibre entre solidarité et responsabilité », ce pacte asile et migration, que les Vingt-Sept veulent voir aboutir au plus tard début 2024, avant les européennes, pourrait aller de l'avant dans les prochaines semaines. Les eurodéputés ont, en effet, formellement donné leur feu vert le 20 avril au début des négociations avec les États membres. Et ce, avant même qu'un accord n'ait été trouvé sur tous les textes au Conseil.Pour l'heure, ce sont toujours les pays qui sont situés au sud de l'Europe qui doivent accueillir les embarcations de migrants et enregistrer les demandes d'asile de ces derniers.Vous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we explore the indispensable Sighthounds. The sleek, swift, and beloved desert hunters and guardians of antiquity. The story of Sighthounds is the story of the oldest known domesticated dogs. Many of the breeds cherished today pre-date recorded history. Their loyalty, speed, and ability to spot and catch prey over long distances in the cruelest of conditions made them essential assets to pharaohs, kings, and nomads alike. Sighthounds were so revered that statues, murals, and golden relics were created in their honor. As a final testament to their merit, Sighthounds have been discovered, mummified, and laid to rest in family tombs.   Bonafide Bits: The Azawakh's unique lean, durable physique inspired a Formula 1 engineer. An ancient leather dog collar was discovered in Tutankhamun's tomb. Pharaoh Hounds are known to blush, and even smile. In addition to being the world's fastest dog, Greyhounds have a 270-degree range of vision. Canine champions of AKC's Fast CAT Invitationals have reached speeds of 35-45 mph.   Featured Breeds: Azawakh Tall and elegant, the Azawakh is a West African sighthound that originates from the countries of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger. The Azawakh has a short, fine coat that may come in any color or color combinations: red, clear sand to fawn, brindled, parti-color (which may be predominantly white), blue, black, and brown. The head may have a black mask and there may be white markings on the legs, bib, and at the tip of the tail. There are no color or marking disqualifications in the breed. Befitting its heritage, the Azawakh excels as a companion, guardian, and lure courser in the United States. Discover more about Azawakhs at AKC's Azawakh Breed Biography.   Saluki Among the world's oldest breeds, the slim but rugged Saluki was the hunting hound of kings for thousands of years. Salukis are swift and agile sprinters who love a good chase. They make gentle, dignified, and independent but loyal pets. Discover more about Salukis at AKC's Saluki Breed Biography.   Sloughi The Sloughi (SLOO-ghee) is a classically constructed sighthound of ancient lineage, originally bred to work on such game as hare, fox, jackal, gazelle, and wild pigs on the punishing terrain of its homeland. This is a lean, no-frills hound standing between 24 to 29 inches at the shoulder. Coat colors include shades of light sand to mahogany red-fawn, with or without brindling, with or without black markings, with no invasive white markings. The Sloughi's big, dark eyes are often described as “melancholy.” Discover more about Sloughis at AKC's Sloughi Breed Biography.   Pharaoh Hound Pharaohs are sleek, aerodynamic coursing hounds bred for high-speed pursuit on rocky terrain. Among their several distinguishing traits are a tight tan coat with matching leather on the nose, ears, and eye rims; ravishing amber eyes; a white-tipped tail; the ability to smile; and a unique way of blushing when happy or excited (“His face glows like a god,” wrote an admirer some 3,000 years ago). These elegant visitors from antiquity possess the speed and graceful movement of all coursers descended from Bronze Age hounds. Discover more about Pharaoh Hounds at AKC's Pharaoh Hound Breed Biography.   Basenji The Basenji, Africa's “Barkless Dog,” is a compact, sweet-faced hunter of intelligence and poise. They are unique and beguiling pets, best for owners who can meet their exercise needs and the challenge of training this catlike canine. Basenjis are small, graceful hounds standing 16 or 17 inches at the shoulder. They are recognizable by their glistening short coat, tightly curled tail, wrinkled forehead, and expressive almond-shaped eyes that convey a variety of subtle, humanlike emotions. Basenjis are a lovely sight at a standstill but more impressive yet at a fast trot when they exhibit the long, smooth strides of a mini-racehorse. And yes, it's true, they don't bark, but they make their feelings known with an odd sound described as something between a chortle and a yodel. Basenjis are fastidious and will groom themselves like cats. This has been called a “cult breed,”¿small in numbers, but those lucky enough to own one do so with singular devotion. Discover more about Basenjis at AKC's Basenji Breed Biography.   Maltese The tiny Maltese, “Ye Ancient Dogge of Malta,” has been sitting in the lap of luxury since the Bible was a work in progress. Famous for their show-stopping, floor-length coat, Maltese are playful, charming, and adaptable toy companions. Discover more about Malteses at AKC's Maltese Breed Biography.   Ibizan Hound The Ibizan Hound is a lithe and leggy visitor from the dawn of civilization, bred as a rabbit courser on the rocky shores of Spain's Balearic Islands. World-class sprinters and leapers, Ibizans need ample space to air out their engines. Ibizans are lithe and leggy visitors from the dawn of civilization. Art history students will recognize the elongated head, with its large erect ears, as a familiar motif of ancient Egypt. The elegant, racy body stands 22.5 to 27.5 inches at the shoulder, with coat colors of solid red or white, or red and white patterns. The rosy-colored leathers of the nose, eye rims, and lips, along with amber or caramel eyes, perfectly complement the coat. The breed's quiet grace is often described as deer-like. Discover more about Ibizan Hounds at AKC's Ibizan Hound Breed Biography.   Greyhound Greyhounds are the essence of the dog breeder's credo “Form follows function.” From the narrow, aerodynamic skull to the shock-absorbing pads of the feet, Greyhounds are perfectly constructed for high-speed pursuit. The lean beauty of the Greyhound's “inverted S” shape, created by the deep chest curving gently into a tightly tucked waist, has been an object of fascination for artists, poets, and kings for as long as human beings have called themselves civilized. Greyhounds are the template from which other coursing hounds have been struck. Discover more about Greyhounds at AKC's Greyhound Breed Biography.   Irish Wolfhound The calm, dignified, and kindly Irish Wolfhound is the tallest of all AKC breeds. Once fearless big-game hunters capable of dispatching a wolf in single combat, Wolfhounds today are the most serene and agreeable of companions. Discover more about Irish Wolfhounds at AKC's Irish Wolfhound Breed Biography.   Whippet At somewhere between 18 and 22 inches at the shoulder, the Whippet looks like a Greyhound, but smaller. The Whippet exhibits the classic “inverted S” lines of the sighthound. The deep chest and trim waist; a lean head supported by a long, arched neck; and slim but sturdy legs combine in a picture of an agile, fleet-footed athlete. Between bursts of intense pursuit, Whippets love to stretch out and relax for long hours, enjoying the role of a loving, and loved, companion. Whippets like a fenced yard to run in, but they do nicely in cozy apartments too, as long as they are exercised properly. Another plus for city dwellers: Whippets rarely bark. Despite the breed's elegant looks, the Whippet is a robust, low-maintenance dog. Discover more about Whippets at AKC's Whippet Breed Biography.   Thai Ridgeback The Thai Ridgeback is a muscular, medium-sized dog with a streamlined body that makes him very agile and a natural athlete. The ridge on his back is formed by hair growing in the opposite direction from the rest of his coat and the breed has up to 8 different ridge patterns. Puppies can be born without this ridge. Coat colors include solid blue, black, red, or fawn with a black mask occasionally on the red-coated dogs. Thai Ridgebacks also have spotted tongues and some even come with solid black/blue tongues. Today, most Ridgebacks are companion dogs, but they still maintain many of the same instincts for the jobs for which they were bred: hunting and guarding. They had to be independent and self-sufficient and hunt for their own food, which gave them strong survival instincts, a high prey drive, and a high level of intelligence. If well-bred and properly socialized, the Thai Ridgeback can be a loyal, loving pet. As a guarding breed, they are naturally protective of their home and can be reserved and suspicious of strangers. Thai Ridgebacks will need a patient, consistent, and experienced owner with a good understanding of dog behavior; they are not for first-time dog owners. Discover more about Thai Ridgebacks at AKC's Thai Ridgeback Breed Biography.   Borzoi Borzoi are large, elegant sighthounds. A mature male stands at least 28 inches at the shoulder and weighs 75 to 105 pounds. Females will be smaller. Beneath the luxurious silky coat, Borzoi construction follows the ancient Greyhound template. Once known as the Russian Wolfhound, Borzoi were bred to be swift and tough enough to pursue and pin their ferocious lupine quarry. In their quiet, catlike way they can be stubborn, and training is best accomplished with patience, consistency, and good humor. Affectionate family dogs, Borzoi are nonetheless a bit too dignified to wholeheartedly enjoy a lot of roughhousing. The sight of a cat or squirrel on the run will quickly stir their instinct to pursue and fenced-in running room is a must. Discover more about Borzois at AKC's Borzoi Breed Biography.   For more information about a specific breed visit the breed's parent club or AKC.org.   Shareables: The fleet-footed whippet has been dubbed a poor man's racehorse. There's evidence that the Greeks not only developed collars but created spiked collars, to protect the necks of their hounds from a predator's bite Tesem is an ancient Egyptian catch-all term meaning hunting dog.

Three decades following the passing of the Rav zt”l his legacy endures and his teachings still inspire – but how do we communicate his Torah to a generation “which did not know Yosef” (R. Yosef Dov Halevi Soloveitchik, that is)? This is a question that is explored from a few different angles in TRADITION's recent expanded issue on the thought of the Rav.  Readers of the special issue will discover that one of the many insightful perspectives on this particular question is offered by Mali Brosky, whose essay “The Rav's Enduring Pedagogical Relevance” takes up the challenge of how we can best convey R. Soloveitchik's thought, hashkafa, and philosophy to students born over a decade after his death and almost a generation after he left the public stage. It is indeed complex, but crucial, and Brofsky makes a compelling case for why it's more important than ever, offering some lessons from her many years of teaching. She recently discussed her essay on the podcast she co-hosts, RZ Weekly, which surveys issues facing the Religious Zionist community in Israel and worldwide. It's an engaging weekly roundtable conversation between Mali and her educational colleagues, Johnny Solomon and Reuven Spolter. We thank them for allowing us to share the segment of this episode over our feed  – search for RZ Weekly on all podcasting platforms to subscribe.  Subscribers can access the  essay alongside some open-access content available to all at https://traditiononline.org/rabbisoloveitchik120issue where the issue can be purchased as well. Mali Brofsky is a senior faculty member at Michlelet Mevaseret Yerushalayim, teaches for Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Hebrew University, and runs a clinical social work practice in Gush Etzion.

The political and security situation in Sudan is melting down. In Burkino Faso this week, the military dictatorship has been blamed for the massacre of 60 people. Security vacuums in Chad and Mali are attracting business from the Wagner Group, the notorious Russian private military contractor. It seems all over Africa, especially in places where the West and the U.S. have their fingerprints, things are boiling over.
