Dr Kapila has extensive experience in global and public health,  international development, humanitarian affairs, conflict and security issues, human rights, diplomacy, and social entrepreneurship, with substantive leadership roles in government, United Nations system and multilateral agencies, International Red Cross and Red Crescent, civil society, and academia. His work has taken him to some 120 countries in all continents. Originally schooled in India and England, Dr Kapila graduated in medicine from the University of Oxford and received postgraduate qualifications in public health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.   Since 2012, Dr Kapila has been the Professor (now Emeritus) of Global Health & Humanitarian Affairs at the University of Manchester, UK, where he also founded and chaired the Manchester Global Foundation.  Since 2020, he is also Senior Adviser to the Parliamentary Assembly for the Mediterranean, the principal forum for 29 national parliaments of the Euro-Mediterranean region, deliberating on the creation of the best political, social, economic and cultural environment for fellow citizens of member states. He also serves as an adviser on several international bodies, including on the Strategic and Technical Advisory Group for Antimicrobial Resistance for the World Health Organization. After an initial clinical career (1980-1984) in hospitals and general practice in Cambridge,  and then in public health (1984-1990), including initiating and leading the first National UK HIV/AIDS Programme, Dr Kapila joined what is now called the UK Government's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office in 1990 where he oversaw British aid health programmes in Asia and Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean, followed by a spell based in Central and Southern Africa.   Dr Kapila was seconded by the UK Government to the United Nations in 2002-03, initially as Special Adviser to the UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General in Afghanistan and then to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in Geneva.  He then became the United Nations Resident and Humanitarian Co-ordinator for Sudan (2003-04), leading what was, at the time, the UN's biggest operation in the world. In 2004, he arrived at the headquarters of the World Health Organization in Geneva as Director of Emergency Response, handling major operations such as the Indian Ocean Tsunami.   In 2006, he joined the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies,  the world's largest humanitarian and development network serving in different roles such as Special Representative of the Secretary General, Director of Policy and Planning, and finally as Undersecretary General where he oversaw several transformations and strategic interventions to scale-up programming.   Dr Kapila has also served in many policy advisory roles, conducted strategic reviews and formulated new programmes with several other international agencies such as the World Bank, UNAIDS, International Labour Organization, UN OCHA and ISDR, as well as served on the Boards of the UN Institute for Training and Research, the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces, and the International Peace Academy.

He has initiated new initiatives on sexual and gender based violence and, as Special Representative of the Aegis Trust,  on the prevention of genocide and other crimes against humanity.  These came out of his personal experiences in witnessing, at first hand, the genocidal atrocities in Rwanda, Srebrenica, and Darfur. Dr Kapila has been a public motivational  and keynote speaker at numerous events including at TedX, and delivered in Nairobi in 2013, the memorial lecture in honour of Nobel Prize winning environmental activist Wangari Maathai.  He has written extensively and served on editorial boards of several publications such as Global Governance and the International Journal of Humanitarian Studies. His memoir “Against a Tide of Evil” was nominated for the 2013 Best Non-Fiction Book award by the Crime Writers Association.

« Encore le blabla des grands pollueurs et le continent qui trinque toujours ! », s'exclame Aujourd'hui au Faso. Le journal pointe le fait que les pays africains ressentent de plus en plus les effets du réchauffement climatique : « On ressassera les mêmes mantras : que les pays africains moins pollueurs subissent le plus les affres du dérèglement climatique », poursuit l'édito pour qui ce sommet ne sera qu'une « piqûre de rappel aux promesses faites et non tenues ou tenues à moitié ».« Vu d'Afrique, les COP se suivent et se ressemblent », abonde Le Pays qui se demande si, cette fois, la voix de l'Afrique « sera entendue ». Elle rappelle qu'avant cette COP s'est tenue en septembre à Nairobi, au Kenya, « le premier sommet africain du climat visant à permettre à l'Afrique de parler d'une seule voix ». Un sommet qui avait donné lieu à une déclaration commune, où les États participant s'étaient entendus, notamment, pour augmenter la capacité de production d'énergie renouvelable. William Ruto pour représenter les intérêts africainsLe président kényan est arrivé jeudi 30 novembre 2023 à Dubaï. Le Kenya est considéré comme « la centrale verte du continent », souligne Nation. Et depuis son arrivée au pouvoir, poursuit le journal kényan, le président a « systématiquement mis en évidence le besoin d'une action concrète pour lutter contre le réchauffement climatique ». Nation dévoile les ambitions du chef de l'État : « William Ruto espère faire du Kenya et du continent les principaux centres mondiaux de la décarbonation. » Déjà, un premier pas a été fait hier jeudi avec un accord surprise, trouvé sur les pertes et dommages ; il s'agit d'un fonds destiné à compenser les dégâts causés par le réchauffement climatique dans les pays du Sud.La campagne présidentielle se poursuit en RDCLa campagne a du mal à démarrer pour l'instant dans la capitale. « Toujours pas d'engouement à Kinshasa », titre Radio Okapi, qui note que sur place, le « seul signe d'effervescence est le nombre impressionnant des affiches aux effigies des candidats ».Le journal burkinabè Wakat Sera, de son côté, s'inquiète des tensions qui émaillent cette campagne. « Le temps se gâte », prévient-il, revenant sur l'attaque du meeting de Moïse Katumbi à Kindu, dans l'est du pays. Wakat Sera parle d'une « journée cauchemardesque » et note que dans ce contexte, « l'Union européenne jette l'éponge dans l'observation des élections selon son schéma initial ».Au Sénégal, nouveau revers pour Ousmane SonkoLe paiement de la caution de l'opposant sénégalais, étape obligatoire pour être candidat à la présidentielle, a été refusé. « La CDC renvoie le chèque d'Ayib Daffé ! », s'exclame Dakaractu. Ayib Daffé, mandataire d'Ousmane Sonko, avait déposé une caution de 30 millions de francs CFA. « Après vérification, la CDC a relevé que le candidat ne figurait pas sur les listes électorales, ce qui a conduit au retour de la caution », explique Senenews qui rapporte les propos d'Ayib Daffé. Il dénonce « une volte-face brutale et inexplicable ».

With the tempo raised, the Investigators must clear out a source of corruption in the heart of Nairobi.

Plastics pollution is a very visible, global environmental and health challenge, and last year the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) launched a process to draft a global treaty aimed at solving the problem. Earlier this week, delegations from all over the world met in Nairobi to work on the first full draft of a treaty that could set binding rules that would affect the production, use and disposal of plastics. To get a readout of what happened there, and what might happen next, we hear from Kwame Asamoa Mensa-Yawson, head of the Ghana National Plastic Action Partnership, a multistakeholder group looking at solutions to the plastics issue, under the auspices of the World Economic Forum.

How do we identify community and natural resource needs? What are people doing to thrive as well as survive? Executive Director Nelson Muiru of Kijabe Environment Volunteers (KENVO) talks with Jeff Ishee, Mary Sketch Bryant, and Eric Bendfeldt for a second episode on how they seek to balance the everyday social and financial needs of people and communities in the Central Highlands of Kenya in East Africa with important natural resource needs. Farming is a primary livelihood and source of sustenance for many people in rural Kenya. At the same time, people and communities rely on forests for timber and charcoal for everyday use and as a source of income. Therefore, it is essential to understand community needs and what people require to thrive while balancing and communicating how indigenous forests provide critical ecosystem services such as water catchment, erosion control, air purification, and pollinator habitat that benefit the local community, towns along the Kikuyu Escarpment, and even cities like Nairobi, Nakuru, Kisumu, and Mombasa. KENVO provides community-based leadership and education to link farmers and communities to existing and emerging markets for farm and forest crops, value-added agricultural consumer goods, and non-timber forest products.

"Make the world your Temple." In 2019, Sarah Tulivu had been given this clear instruction by two Taoist masters, including her direct teacher, Master Waysun Liao. At the time, Sarah, ordained as Fong Yi, was living and training full-time as a monk in a Taoist temple in Lago Atitlan, Guatemala. For six years, she had practiced meditation and the embodied consciousness practice of taiji (tai chi) in the lineage of Taiji Tao for six to seven hours a day. In the two years prior to her monastic life, Sarah had been a deep student of the Buddhist tradition across Nepal, India, and Thailand. It was now time for her to venture into the world. "Find the Teacher and the Teaching everywhere, and in everyone," said Master Liao. While she considers herself still in training, Sarah has done just that. With her gentle presence, light-filled eyes, and a tender smile, she shares her wisdom in retreats and workshops around the world, mostly in Tuscany, Ireland, Vienna, Lebanon, and Greece. She also returned to be part of the world of humanitarian aid, which she had been doing in East Africa and the Middle East before her immersion in contemplative practice. This second time around, Sarah was called to conflict in regions -- like the border of Lebanon and Syria during the Lebanese Revolution (2019-2020), and again in 2021. Sarah also led Taiji Tao practices in support of the aid workers, addressing burnout and healing at its root. She has seen how cultivating inner stillness and harmonizing the complementary forces within can sustain the great need for compassionate service. For her early childhood, Sarah was in Canada and Italy. Despite Catholic influences in the Italian town of her upbringing, her family didn't observe any particular spiritual or religious traditions. At 16, Sarah began to travel, and she encountered many different traditions and approaches to the spirit. She never felt herself an "-ist" of any particular doctrine, but rather, embracing the diversity of ways to find truth, love, service, freedom, and beauty. For Christianity, "it was only when I was in Kenya, in a slum of Nairobi," she reflects, "that I met the life of Jesus through different eyes, thanks to the volunteers there who lived his teachings in a very different way than what I had seen growing up. For example, I was reminded that Jesus lived with the poor and the marginalized, and spoke up to oppressive powers." When she moved to the Tao Temple at 24 years old, it happened in a very organic way, just as the "natural consequence, the natural next step in my journey." A monastic lifestyle seemed to be the best fit for her priority of "waking up," so she followed the call. The tradition happened to be Taiji Tao. Taiji, Sarah explains, is often translated as "the unlimited, absolute, boundless..." Similar to other wisdom traditions, Taiji Tao is a path that aims to return us to our origin, to our most natural state, which means to return us to a state of harmony, balance, and union of the yin (feminine) and yang (masculine) aspects of ourselves, our communities, and the world at large. For a taste of Sarah's presence and offerings, please explore her introductory video and a series of 10-minute meditations, for all levels. Please join Cynthia Li and Rohit Rajgarhia for this special offering -- part conversation, part workshop on taiji and embodied consciousness practice -- as a response to the great challenges and the great flux in the world.

428// From Fear to Freedom: How the Gospel Changes Everything On today's episode, I asked my friend Jey Mbiro to join me to talk about his experience with how the gospel can replace fear with freedom.  Jey grew up in the slums of Nairobi and was jailed as a child for stealing food. He experienced the horrors of slum life, extreme poverty, and extreme hunger before being enrolled in Compassion International's sponsorship program. His life was changed when he was introduced to a relationship with Jesus. He now lives in Atlanta, leads a non-profit in Kenya, and is the dad of two daughters. Join us as we unpack the ways that the gospel changes everything.   Calling all kids (and parents of kids)!

La capitale haïtienne subit, depuis le début de la semaine, une nouvelle flambée de violences, avec des combats entre gangs rivaux à Cité Soleil, au nord de Port-au-Prince. Ces combats ont débuté suite à la mort d'un chef de groupe armé. Notre correspondante, Marie-André Bélange, a pu joindre un témoin : « Ils sont passés par la mer pour attaquer des quartiers. Ils ont incendié des voitures et des maisons. J'ai pu constater environ huit décès ». Les combats se sont aussi rapprochés d'un centre hospitalier, ce qui a conduit à son évacuation. Le déploiement de policiers toujours en discussion au KenyaHaïti attend toujours le déploiement d'une force multinationale sur place. Le Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU a donné son feu vert, il y a plusieurs mois, et le Kenya s'est porté volontaire, mais l'opposition est vent debout contre le déploiement de policiers kényans et a déposé un recours juridique. Ce jeudi 16 novembre 2023, les députés ont tenté de passer en force, en votant pour ce déploiement. Mais pour les avocats d'Alliance troisième voie, tant que le jugement n'est pas rendu par la Haute cour de Nairobi, les autorités n'ont pas le droit de déployer la mission en Haïti. De plus, le ministre de l'Intérieur kényan affirmait, la semaine dernière, que ses hommes ne seraient pas envoyés tant que les financements de cette mission ne seraient pas assurés.  Au Chili, des contes adaptés à la réalité latino-américaineCes dernières années, la bibliothèque des petits Chiliens s'adapte à ce qui les entoure pour mieux les toucher. Les décors scandinaves et les princesses blondes des contes des frères Grimm ou de Charles Perrault n'évoquent pas forcément grand-chose aux enfants d'Amérique latine. Alors, depuis 20 ans, la maison d'édition Amanuta déniche, publie et commande de petits bijoux de la littérature jeunesse. « Nous avons conçu des livres en lien avec nos peuples autochtones, ou encore la faune et la flore d'ici », explique Ana Pavez, fondatrice de la maison d'édition. « C'est ce qui nous rapproche de notre réalité, ça crée un ancrage, un amour pour notre terre, pour nos gens ». Le premier livre publié par Amanuta, par exemple, a pour héros un lama qui n'avait jamais vu la mer. Certaines histoires, aussi, s'inspirent des contes européens pour les adapter à la culture latino-américaine. L'écrivain Manuel Pena Munoz a redécouvert des textes de la poétesse Gabriela Mistral : « Elle a actualisé les histoires des frères Grimm et de Charles Perrault », explique-t-il. « Elle glisse entre les lignes des insectes mexicains, des mots propres à l'Amérique latine, elle incorpore des vigognes, des alpagas ... » Ces dernières années, notamment sous l'impulsion notamment d'Amanuta, la littérature jeunesse a pris son envol : en cinq ans, entre 2015 et 2020, le nombre de livre publié chaque année dans cette catégorie a doublé. Le journal de la 1ère En Guadeloupe, une nouvelle maladie menace les récifs coralliens.

The world's nations are meeting in Nairobi, Kenya, this week to discuss a UN treaty to end plastic pollution. For more about this, we speak with Dalhousie University professor Tony Walker, whose input has helped shape some of the policies being discussed.

Transformer des déchets plastiques en carburant. C'est le pari que s'est lancé une start-up kényane, Progreen Innovations. Elle utilise la technique de la pyrolyse. Les plastiques sont chauffés à une température très élevée, sans oxygène. Le combustible qui en sort est ensuite raffiné, chauffé une deuxième fois. Le résultat final peut être utilisé pour plusieurs types de moteurs. Reportage. Depuis deux ans, James Muritu expérimente. Ces recherches ont permis à cet ingénieur informatique de fonder Progreen Innovations. Tout se passe dans son jardin à une cinquantaine de kilomètres de Nairobi. Un four relié à plusieurs tuyaux y trône fièrement. Une forte odeur de plastique brûlé s'en dégage. James Muritu détaille le processus : « Nous sommes en train d'incinérer du plastique. Vous voyez le contrôleur de température ici ? C'est à 500 degrés Celsius. Le liquide passe par tous ces tuyaux, puis on le collecte ici. Là, c'est du pétrole brut qui sort. On le voit, ça ressemble à celui que l'on extrait des sols. C'est ce liquide qui va ensuite être raffiné pour faire du carburant. »Une méthode prometteuseProgreen Innovations peut produire jusqu'à 1 000 litres de combustible par semaine, grâce à la pyrolyse. Pas besoin d'électricité. La chaleur est obtenue à partir de biomasse, des déchets végétaux. Le processus permet d'obtenir deux sortes de carburant.  « Il y a l'essence alternative, pour des moteurs à faible combustion, comme les pompes à eau, les générateurs ou les tondeuses à gazons, explique James. Et le diesel alternatif, qui lui fonctionne pour les moteurs diesels plus puissants, comme les voitures. Je l'utilise pour la mienne d'ailleurs ! » Le plastique provient des déchets des villages alentours. Il est trié avant d'être brûlé. James Muritu s'en targue : son système évite que ces plastiques ne se retrouvent dans l'environnement. La méthode de la pyrolyse est toutefois source de controverses.À lire aussiCôte d'Ivoire: l'expérience encore timide du recyclage des déchets plastiques« Mieux que de balancer des plastiques dans l'océan » C'est ce qu'explique Damien Guironnet, professeur en chimie à l'université de l'Illinois aux États-Unis : « L'idée du recyclage, c'est de transformer un plastique en plastique. Le problème de la pyrolyse, c'est qu'on utilise du pétrole, on fait du plastique, ça coûte beaucoup d'énergie et ensuite, on transforme ce plastique encore en pétrole. On peut, c'est vrai, utiliser l'huile de pyrolyse pour faire à nouveau du plastique, mais au final, on aura perdu beaucoup d'énergie. Et tout ce qui est énergie veut dire rejeter du gaz carbonique dans l'atmosphère. Suivant quel plastique on utilise dans la pyrolyse, le vinyle va rejeter du chlorure d'hydrogène, et c'est super nocif pour l'environnement. Et donc toutes ces petites avancées, la pyrolyse avec de la biomasse, ce n'est pas la solution, mais ça reste mieux que de balancer les plastiques dans l'océan. »Seulement 9% des déchets plastiques sont recyclés. Les défenseurs de l'environnement s'accordent à le dire : la meilleure solution reste d'en limiter la production. À noter que les carburants de Progreen Innovation ne sont pas encore commercialisés. Ils doivent d'abord être certifiés par le Bureau des normes du Kenya.À lire aussi«Moins de plastique, plus de vie»: des écologistes manifestent avant une réunion internationale à Nairobi

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times”: the first line of the Charles Dickens novel A Tale of Two Cities is an idea that the two cities featured in this episode's case study know all too well. The Global South's Nairobi, Kenya and the Global North's Rotterdam in the Netherlands are half a world apart, but they're each facing similar and equally dire climate consequences that are caused by and a threat to the major economic driver of import and export in their cities. But in the face of these “worst of times,” both of these cities are implementing the best and most innovative strategies they can to curb climate impact and make their key industries and transportation systems more resilient and sustainable. Featured guests:Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb has helped Rotterdam become one of Europe's most diverse, dynamic, and multicultural cities. Thanks to his leadership, Rotterdam has evolved into an open and progressive urban centre with a strong emphasis on circularity, sustainability, and innovation. Mayor Aboutaleb has a well-earned global reputation as one of the world's most respected and appreciated mayors. Maurice Kavai is the Deputy Director, Climate Change, for Nairobi City County. The main goal of his work is to ensure that climate actions are streamlined within Nairobi's urban programs, and to anchor all sector initiatives and development plans into the city's climate action plan.

“The wings of the ostrich flap joyfully, though they cannot compare with the wings and feathers of the stork.” — Job 39:13 Some years ago, I took a bus to a small village a few hours outside of Nairobi, Kenya. Partway through the trip, as I was looking out the window, I saw an ostrich running wildly alongside the bus. Its long neck and bulging eyes stuck out in front of its oddly large body, and it flapped its enormous, fluffy wings while its skinny legs pumped furiously, kicking up clouds of dust as it scurried across the savanna. I couldn't keep from laughing! What a strange and hilarious creature! But as outlandish as ostriches are, they still have their place in creation. Although God didn't endow them with wisdom or good sense, he did see fit to make it possible for them to outpace horses and riders—and even transit buses on African highways! Perhaps God created such a funny creature for times when things that happen in life are just so strange that we have to shake our heads and say, “You can't make this stuff up!” Our lives are often so complex in ways that we can't explain, and sometimes we are left speechless. Still, even strange and inexplicable things have their place in life. And like the wildly joyful ostrich, somehow everything fits together, in God's wisdom. Lord, thank you for your wonderfully diverse creation. We praise you that there's a place for everyone in this good creation and that all things hold together in Jesus Christ. In your name we pray. Amen.

Today I have got the honor of talking to Dr. Mukesh Kapila about the Israel-Hamas war and the wider situation within the Middle East.  Dr Kapila has extensive experience in global and public health,  international development, humanitarian affairs, conflict and security issues, human rights, diplomacy, and social entrepreneurship, with substantive leadership roles in government, United Nations system and multilateral agencies, International Red Cross and Red Crescent, civil society, and academia. His work has taken him to some 120 countries in all continents. Originally schooled in India and England, Dr Kapila graduated in medicine from the University of Oxford and received postgraduate qualifications  in public health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.   Since 2012, Dr Kapila has been the Professor (now Emeritus) of Global Health & Humanitarian Affairs at the University of Manchester, UK where he also founded and chaired the Manchester Global Foundation.  Since 2020, he is also Senior Adviser to the Parliamentary Assembly for the Mediterranean, the principal forum for 29 national parliaments of the Euro-Mediterranean region deliberating on the creation of the best political, social, economic and cultural environment for fellow citizens of member states. He also serves as adviser on several international bodies including on the Strategic and Technical Advisory Group for Antimicrobial Resistance for the World Health Organization. After an initial clinical career (1980-1984) in hospitals and general practice in Cambridge,  and then in public health (1984-1990) including initiating and leading the first National UK HIV/AIDS Programme, Dr Kapila joined what is now called the UK Government's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office in 1990 where he oversaw British aid health programmes in Asia and Pacific, Latin America and Caribbean, followed by a spell based in Central and Southern Africa.   Dr Kapila was seconded by the UK Government to the United Nations in 2002-03 initially as Special Adviser to the UN Special Representative of the Secretary General in Afghanistan and then to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in Geneva.  He then became the United Nations' Resident and Humanitarian Co-ordinator for Sudan (2003-04) leading what was at the time, the UN's biggest operation in the world.  in 2004, he arrived at the headquarters of the World Health Organization in Geneva as Director for Emergency Response handling major operations such as for the Indian Ocean Tsunami.   In 2006, he joined the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies,  the world's largest humanitarian and development network serving in different roles such as Special Representative of the Secretary General, Director of Policy and Planning, and finally as Undersecretary General where he oversaw several transformations and strategic interventions to scale-up programming.   Dr Kapila has also served in many policy advisory roles, conducted strategic reviews and formulated new programmes with several other international agencies such as the World Bank, UNAIDS, International Labour Organization, UN OCHA and ISDR, as well as served on the Boards of the UN Institute for Training and Research, the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces, and  the International Peace Academy. He was an early member of the UN Disaster Assessment and Coordination System.    He returned to the United Nations in 2015-2016 to serve as Special Adviser for the first-ever World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul, and then in 2018-2019 to found and direct the innovative Defeat-NCD Partnership at the UN.     Additionally, he has been active in several civil society groups including chairing the Council of Minority Rights Group International, and chairing the Board of Nonviolent Peaceforce that was nominated for the 2016 Nobel Peace Prize. He has initiated new initiatives on sexual and gender based violence and, as Special Representative of the Aegis Trust,  on the prevention of genocide and other crimes against humanity.  These came out of his personal experiences in witnessing, at first hand, the genocidal atrocities in Rwanda, Srebrenica, and Darfur. Dr Kapila has been a public motivational  and keynote speaker at numerous events including at TedX, and delivered in Nairobi in 2013, the memorial lecture in honour of Nobel Prize winning environmental activist Wangari Maathai.  He has written extensively and served on editorial boards of several publications such as Global Governance and the International Journal of Humanitarian Studies. His memoir “Against a Tide of Evil” was nominated for the 2013 Best Non-Fiction Book award by the Crime Writers Association. His latest book (2019) is entitled “No Stranger to Kindness”.  Some of his other writings can be accessed on his website.   www.mukeshkapila.org Twitter @mukeshkapila
