In this episode of Psychology and Stuff, host Alison Jane Martingano sits down with Dr. Neema Trivedi-Bateman, senior lecturer in criminology at Loughborough University and founder of the Compass Project, an innovative intervention designed to strengthen moral development and promote prosocial behavior in young people. Neema shares how her research on empathy, shame, guilt, and decision-making inspired the creation of Compass, and explains why helping young people reflect on their emotions and choices may be more effective than focusing solely on rules and punishment. Together, they explore the role of moral reasoning, self-control, and social environments in shaping behavior, as well as the challenges of translating theory into real-world programs. From promising early results in schools to plans for international expansion, their conversation highlights how research-driven interventions can help young people make healthier decisions and create positive changes in their communities.

Books and Brews: the place where beer and literature meet! Juliet Cutler is a writer, educator, and a designer of award-winning exhibits for museums, parks, and cultural centers around the world. In 1999 and 2000, she lived in Tanzania where she taught English at the first school for Maasai girls in East Africa. In her first book Among the Maasai, Juliet recounts her experiences as a young American teacher working in a context where women and girls face unimaginable challenges. Twenty-five years later, she illustrates the positive impacts of educating women and girls in her second book Lessons in Hope, which features the stories of Maasai women working in education, health care, government, nonprofits, and business. She regularly travels to Tanzania to support causes that uplift Maasai women and girls. All proceeds from the sales of her books support these causes. We talked about Juliet's work in the earliest years of the school for Massai girls in Tanzania, African cultures, National Geographic's portrayals of those cultures, attitudes toward disabilities, how Massai culture is changing, and designing exhibits for museums and parks...in addition to many other things! 00:00 START 07:03 Drink 1: Hakuna Mata 09:42 Reading 1: Intro 14:20 Inspiration and Preparation for Africa 19:44 The Distinct & Iconic Massai Culture 26:17 Drink 2: Dowa (medicine) 30:06 Reading 2: Neema's Dreams 34:44 How has life changed since the school started? 39:22 Adapting vs Maintaining Tradition & Culture 42:53 Drink 3: Ama-lekkerlicious 45:52 Reading 3: Kafika House 52:48 Changing Attitudes toward Disabilities 52:48 What did Africa DO to you!?

As a key mediator in the ongoing conflict in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the United States has brokered peace agreements backed by security guarantees and by the investment potential of the country's vast mineral wealth. However, critics warn this "minerals for peace" approach risks overlooking unresolved issues – from the protection of minority rights to the limited role of the African Union, and fragile state-society relations in the DRC. In this episode, Christian-Géraud Neema and Joshua Walker join the Africa Programme's Romane Dideberg and Lisa Musumba to discuss how the short and long-term implications of the DRC's pivot to the US is affecting its strategic autonomy, mining sovereignty, and what it means for President Tshisekedi's political options.
In this episode of Clover, I sit down with Dr. Neema Moore—chiropractor, author of Confidence NOW!, and founder of transformative wellness retreats—for a conversation that feels both grounding and expansive.Dr. Neema's journey doesn't follow a straight line. From high school biology teacher to chiropractor to global wellness leader, she shares how one simple idea—choosing happiness—led her to completely pivot her career and build a life centered around healing, confidence, and impact. What stands out most is how much of her path came not from a rigid plan, but from saying yes to what felt aligned… even when it was uncomfortable.We talk about what she sees every day in high-achieving women: the burnout, the pressure, the “holding it all together” on the outside while their bodies are telling a different story. From chronic stress and exhaustion to the deeper emotional weight women carry, Dr. Neema breaks down how success without self-connection shows up physically—and what we can do about it.This conversation also goes deeper into: Why driven women are actually the most at risk for burnout The importance of creating space to reconnect with yourself (and why retreats can be so transformative) What it really takes to build confidence—and why it only comes after you take the leap Letting go of waiting for permission and stepping fully into your own authority How to stop minimizing your accomplishments and start owning your story Dr. Neema shares powerful insight from her own life and her work with women around the world, including the mindset shifts that help you move from survival mode into alignment, clarity, and confidence.If you've ever felt like you “should” have it all together—but inside you're questioning everything—this episode is a reminder that you're not alone… and that the next version of you is on the other side of one brave step forward.And yes—Beyoncé makes an appearance, because confidence has a soundtrack.

The United States wants to build a new global critical minerals supply chain through a new alliance that aims to stabilize prices and reduce dependence on China. Africa sits at the center of this shift, particularly the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where geopolitics is increasingly shaping mining deals and partnerships. CGSP Africa Editor Géraud Neema joins Eric & Cobus to break down the U.S. proposal and why China's dominance in refining and processing remains a major constraint, raising doubts about whether a minerals strategy focused mainly on extraction can succeed.

Neema Naz gets brutally honest about Iran, internet hate, discipline, and the cost of staying silent.Neema opens up about why he's never been able to visit his homeland, what's actually happening in Iran right now, and why speaking out has led to backlash and death threats online. We dive into the pressure creators face to “pick a side,” the hypocrisy of internet outrage, and why no matter what you do, someone is waiting to come for you.The conversation takes a sharp turn into masculinity, accountability, and self-discipline — as Neema shares his raw battle with food addiction, weight loss, self-hate, and the mental traps that stop men from reaching their full potential. From losing over 100 pounds to gaining it back, he explains why discipline is harder than motivation and why fixing your health comes before everything else.This episode isn't about playing it safe. It's about truth, responsibility, and what happens when you refuse to lie to yourself.We talk about:What's really happening in Iran (and why the media avoids it)Speaking out vs staying silent as a public figureOnline hate, cancel culture, and death threatsFood addiction, weight loss, and self-accountabilityMasculinity, discipline, and wasted potentialIf you've ever felt stuck, angry, misunderstood, or pressured to conform — this one hits.Check out Neema:Neema IG: https://www.instagram.com/neemanaz/Neema YT: @NeemaNaz SHOP NEW MBH MERCH:https://mbhtv.com/collections/mbh-merchandiseSUBSCRIBE TO MBH SNAPCHAT: https://www.snapchat.com/@thembhpodcastSUBSCRIBE HERE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcQijWgy0S1vyfPm_BhYNPwLISTEN ON:APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/money-buys-happiness/id1513827461SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4DzyFZDvEHVT8ArGusePGs?si=38129137034440ecHOSTS INSTAGRAM:ERNESTO: https://www.instagram.com/Ernestogaita/ANTHONY: https://www.instagram.com/AnthonysorellaPODCAST: https://www.instagram.com/moneybuyshappiness
Visit us at Network2020.org. Africa sits at the center of the global energy transition. From cobalt and copper in the Democratic Republic of Congo to major infrastructure initiatives like the Lobito Corridor, the continent's mineral wealth—an estimated 30% of the world's supply—is now indispensable to green-energy supply chains. As global powers compete for influence and investments, African governments, private-sector leaders, and human rights organizations face mounting pressure to ensure this moment leads to long-term development rather than a repeat of extractive history.How are geopolitics impacting critical mineral competition in Africa? What safeguards are necessary to protect communities facing the social and environmental impacts of mineral extraction? And how can investment models, regulatory reforms, and geopolitical positioning converge to turn mineral wealth into inclusive and sustainable development?Join us for a conversation with Mr. Emmanuel Umpula Nkumba, Executive Director of AFREWATCH; and Mr. Christian-Géraud Neema, nonresident scholar in the Carnegie Africa Program and Africa Editor at the China-Global South Project.Music by Yurii Semchyshyn from Pixabay.
The U.S. and the DR Congo signed a landmark deal on critical minerals during President Félix Tshisekedi's visit to the White House this week. The pact provides the U.S. with extraordinary access to the Congolese mining sector and is widely expected to inhibit Chinese mining companies in the DRC from expanding their operations. CGSP Africa Editor Géraud Neema joins Eric & Cobus to break down the details of the deal and explain why what happened in the DRC could set a dangerous precedent for Chinese mining operations in other African countries.

In honor of National Cancer Survivor Month, guest host Christina Monaco, LMSW, sits down with young adult survivor Neema Philippe for an unflinching conversation about being diagnosed with cancer at age 29—and what comes next. Neema revisits the shock of her diagnosis, the whirlwind of treatments, and the grief of watching life plans shift overnight. She shares how vulnerability became a healing tool, why self-advocacy matters at every stage, and the small rituals that help her reclaim joy. Whether you're a survivor, caregiver, or clinician, Neema's reflections on self-care, community, and life “after” will leave you inspired—and better equipped to navigate your own path beyond cancer. Key takeaways: A cancer diagnosis at any age can be shocking and life-altering. The words “you have cancer” often bring intense emotional overwhelm. Life stage can deeply shape how someone experiences cancer, especially when it disrupts expectations or milestones. Medical decisions—like fertility preservation—carry emotional complexity and long-term considerations. Support systems play a vital role in coping with the isolation that can come with a cancer diagnosis. Embracing vulnerability can foster healing and a deeper connection. It's common to grieve the loss of imagined futures while navigating illness. Fear of recurrence can linger long after treatment ends. Finding moments of joy and meaning can help support emotional well-being during and after cancer treatment. Self-advocacy is essential when navigating the healthcare system and making informed decisions.

In recent years, the relationship between Chinese mining companies and local communities in many African countries has been very contentious over allegations of environmental damage, a lack of transparency, and tensions with local civil society groups. In Zimbabwe, a new initiative—the China-Africa Dialogue on Green Minerals for Responsible Investment (CADRI)—is taking a different approach. Rather than relying on confrontation, CADRI brings together civil society organizations, policymakers, and Chinese companies to push for greater accountability, transparency, and sustainable mining practices. This week, CGSP Africa Editor Géraud Neema speaks with Obert Bore, business and human rights program lead at the Zimbabwe Environmental Law Association (ZELA), to discuss why this initiative appears to be working and what other African countries can learn from Zimbabwe's experience.

There's a new production in Toronto that explores the very first musical instrument: the voice. “The Wolf in the Voice” features three singers, including the acclaimed Canadian soprano, dancer and performer Neema Bickersteth. She joins Tom Power to talk about the show, how it investigates the relationship between singing and the human voice, and the joy — and deep anxieties — faced by professional singers.
Neema doesn't want to help out at home, she just wants to rollerblade. Who can blame her, chores are boring, right? Things come to a head with her dad. He thinks helping out is exactly what she should be doing. Thankfully Shelly is on hand to assist Neema, as she works through this contentious family issue. Utilizing songs and chat, Shelly tries to show Neema that helping out matters. Why is it important that everyone works as a team in a family?

U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee this week on what the U.S. needs to do to better compete with China in Africa and other developing regions. Campbell bluntly told senators Washington "has to do better" to match Chinese finance, trade, and military engagement around the world. But the problem for Campbell and other U.S. stakeholders is that it's been difficult to define what success looks like in their bid to out-compete China. Jendayi Frazer, a distinguished visiting fellow at Hoover Institution and adjunct senior fellow for Africa studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, is one of Washington's foremost experts on U.S. foreign policy towards Africa. She speaks from firsthand experience as a former assistant secretary of state and joins CGSP Africa Editor Géraud Neema to explain why it's critical for the U.S. to devote more attention to Africa.

UK Labour takes over. Tories implode w/ Dr. Neema Parvini (Live)
In this episode we discuss The Populist Delusion by Neema Parvini. Nex time we will discuss The United States of Paranoia: A Conspiracy Theory by Jesse Walker.
Back in the early 2000s, when Chinese engagement in Africa started to ramp up, China was enjoying double-digit growth and devoured vast quantities of African oil, minerals, and timber to feed its surging manufacturing sector. Fast-forward to the present, and China no longer relies on African resources as it once did. The Chinese economy has matured, and those heady growth days are long past. And now, with the BRI in place, China doesn't rely on Africa for resources anywhere near as much as it did 20 years ago. A new paper published by two of the world's leading scholars on China-Africa ties, Zainab Usman from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and Professor Tang Xiaoyang from Tsinghua University in Beijing, details five key economic trends re-shaping the relationship between these two regions. Zainab joins CGSP Africa Editor Géraud Neema to discuss how this evolving economic relationship will impact African countries, in particular.

Watch this episode on YouTube.As most of you know, I started working full-time as the Global Affairs Officer of Duco Experts in January. One of the things I like about the job is getting to work across the industry and seeing how companies tackle similar problems differently. Thus, I thought it would be fun to bring the leadership team on the podcast to discuss some trends. Sidney Olinyk is the founder and CEO. Neema Basri is the Chief Operating Officer, and Scott Hoch is the Chief Technology Officer. In this episode, Sidney and Scott talk a bit about the origins of Duco and some lessons learned from starting the business. Neema shares some of the work that we do and we all jump into sharing some trends we are seeing, our favorite productivity hacks and some hot take predictions for the future.
