It's hard to imagine Christmas without reindeer. But long before the beloved antlered animals were pulling Santa's sleigh, they were providing a way of life for indigenous peoples around the world, including the Nenets of Siberia's Yamal Peninsula. The Nenets of Siberia's Yamal Peninsula are among the world's oldest existing true nomads, making a living by herding reindeer in a place that literally translates to ‘the end of the world.' And when Christine Amour-Levar learned that she had a third-degree connection to the tribe, she set about arranging an unprecedented trek to accompany them during their southward migration. Five months later, she was leading the largest - and only all-female - group that the Nenets had ever hosted, as they prepared to live, migrate, and journey alongside the tribe for a week. Cozy up and get ready for an episode that celebrates this traditional symbol of the holidays in a decidedly non-traditional way...even including the occasional consumption of fresh reindeer blood.

Camille Thomas et Sergio Ghizzardi De la musique classique avec Camille Thomas et son album "Le Projet Chopin". Il sera question du docu. "Gaz russe, la dernière route des Nenets" avec le réalisateur Sergio Ghizzardi. Tourné avant le début du conflit russo-ukrainien en février 2022, ce documentaire questionne les conséquences de la course à la domination énergétique dans la péninsule de Yamal, près du cercle polaire, zone d'exploitation gazière d'où provient 85% du gaz russe. Une exploitation qui bouleverse le mode de vie ancestral des Nenets, un peuple autochtone sibérien qui vit depuis toujours de l'élevage de rennes… Dès 11h30, retrouvez la « Bagarre dans la Discothèque » avec Hélène Maquet et Xavier Vanbuggenhout. Et dès midi : Les sorties BD de Xavier Vanbuggenhout. Le documentariste belge Sergio Ghizzardi pour son docu. "Gaz russe, la dernière route des Nenets", sorti ce mercredi. 20 mars 2019. Dans une allocution, Vladimir Poutine annonce le lancement d'un nouveau projet majeur de Gazprom : le développement à grande échelle du champ gazier de Kharasavey, dans la péninsule de Yamal. Véritable coffre-fort, le sous-sol de cette région de l'Arctique recèle 80 % des réserves gazières de la Fédération de Russie, par ailleurs premier producteur de gaz du monde. C'est aussi la terre ancestrale des Nenets, un peuple autochtone de Sibérie qui perpétue de génération en génération la plus longue route de transhumance de la planète. Disséminés en une cinquantaine de "brigades" – des clans familiaux nommés ainsi depuis l'ère soviétique –, les Nenets vivent de l'élevage des rennes, dont ils vendent la viande et les peaux. Malgré des conditions climatiques extrêmes, les immenses territoires qu'ils parcourent avec leurs troupeaux de plusieurs milliers de têtes, entre la ville de Nadym et les côtes de la mer de Kara, se couvrent de gazoducs, les hameaux et villages deviennent des villes. Pourront-ils survivre à l'exploitation du gaz ? Accompagnant deux "brigades" de Nenets au cours d'un périple de plus de 1 500 kilomètres à travers la toundra au printemps, puis la taïga à l'automne, Sergio Ghizzardi s'attache aux pas d'une poignée d'entre eux, femmes et hommes, jeunes et anciens. Au fil d'une transhumance soumise aux caprices de la météo et de la recherche du lichen dont se nourrissent les troupeaux, le film lève le voile sur un mode de vie ancestral que menacent non seulement l'essor de l'industrie gazière mais aussi le changement climatique et, pour les nouvelles générations, les sirènes du confort et de la modernité. La violoncelliste franco-belge Camille Thomas pour la sortie de son nouvel album "Le Projet Chopin", paru en juin dernier. "Machins Machines" d'Hélène Maquet. Le talk-show culturel de Jérôme Colin.

Allan Little investigates how the climate crisis is impacting different communities above the Arctic circle, from infrastructure damage to loss of life, eroding land and endangering thousand-year-old cultures and traditional knowledge. They are our eyes and ears on the speed with which our planet is changing. We look at Nenets reindeer herding on the Siberian tundra, infrastructure damage in Longyearbyen (the world's most northern town on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard), and a pioneering environmental program in Kotzebue, Alaska. For communities such as Pond Inlet (Mittimatalik) in Nunavut, Canada, climate change compounds existing challenges caused by colonialism and lack of economic development.

In the next set of Supergreat Kids' stories, we're going to hear starry and wintery tales from around the world.This story is about a snow wolf and a boy who are friends. It was inspired by the Nenets people who live at the top of the world in the snowy Siberian Arctic. There is a scary moment in this story when the hunter comes along with his gun, but keep listening, because it has a twinkly, happy ending.If you'd like to support the show you can find us on our Ko-fi page - HERE See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

For centuries the Nenets people have wandered across northern Russia with their reindeer. But now, climate change threatens to bring an end to their nomadic existence. Researchers are looking for a way out of this man-made crisis.

For this episode, we're going to focus on indigenous perspectives in the Arctic. Even though we often think of the Arctic as an inhospitable place, humans have actually lived in this region for a very long time. Recent archaeological findings show that human beings inhabited the Arctic as far back as 40,000 years ago, maybe longer. Today, there are dozens of indigenous groups in the circumpolar north -- the Inuit, the Sámi, the Nenets and many more -- and in the last several centuries, almost all of those indigenous groups have been impacted by colonization. As just one example of that: although the Arctic is currently divided into eight countries, there are different indigenous nations with long histories in all of these areas that pre-date our current national boundaries. In other words, if we drew the map of the Arctic from the perspectives of the various indigenous groups, our whole definition of what this region is would be very different.

Darkness falls across the land, the midnight hour is close to hand and out of the Yamalo-Nenets region of Russia zombie viruses crawl in search of blood. This week Lucy takes us to the frozen darkness of the Arctic to look at some of climate changes most crazy (and horror-movie worthy) impacts.

Samisk kunst fra Barentsregionen - Nordnorsk kunstmuseum i Tromsø "Duodji" er det samiske ordet for kunsthåndverk, håndbåren kunnskap som ikke veier noe. – Når man lever i et nomadisk samfunn kan man ikke ta med seg så mye, så ornamentikk, utforming og bruk av materialer på bruksgjenstander blir veldig viktig. Det er grunnen til at den nye utstillingen på Nordnorsk kunstmuseum heter "I craft – I travel light", sier en av kuratorene, Sigrid Bjørbæk fra Norske kunsthåndverkere i Nord-Norge. Utstillingen samler 17 forskjellige kunstnere fra hele Barentsregionen, fra Nord-Norge, Finland, Arkhangelsk, Murmansk og helt til den sibirske byen Naryan-Mar, som er sentrum for Nenets-kulturen. For ikke lenge siden kunne direktør Jérémie McGowan motta Norges Museumsforbunds pris "Årets museum 2017". Ikke minst på grunn av utstillingen "There is no" tidligere i vinter. I all hemmelighet ble Nordnorsk kunstmuseum forvandlet til "Samisk kunstmuseum", med ny logo på fasaden og en helt ny utstilling inne i lokalene. Tittelen på utstillingen peker på at det ikke finnes noe samisk kunstmuseum, noe direktør McGowan gjerne vil rette på. - Det er ingen regler for hva som er samisk kunst. Urban urbefolkningskunst er like viktig som kunst som skapes i mer tradisjonelle, nomadiske omgivelser. Jeg tror på en overlapping av kunstuttrykk og at vi alle bærer forskjellige identiteter i oss. Identiteter som kan forandres og forsterkes, sier direktør Jeremie McGowan. Programmet sendt første gang 13.mai 2017. Programleder Øyvind Arntsen.

She grew up between Manila, Paris and Tokyo and is currently based in Singapore, where she lives with her husband and four children. After graduating from Sophia University in Tokyo, with a BA in International Business and Economics, and a minor in Japanese language, she embarked on a fulfilling career that took her across Europe, Asia, North and South America for brands such as Nike, McCann-Erickson, Philippe Starck and her own Brazilian fashion retail business, Beijaflor. After selling her retail business in 2010, she went on to write the motivational guide, The Smart Girl’s Handbook to Being Mummylicious, published in May 2012.   Today, Christine heads Marketing and Communications at Temasek Trust and Temasek Management Services, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of Temasek Holdings, a global investment firm headquartered in Singapore.

She is someone who I really admire because of her personal and professional accomplishments. You’ll hear me say it a few times in this episode, but I honestly don’t know how she has the time to do everything that she does. Having said that, I think when you’ve found that sweet spot in your life where you can use the skills that you’re good at while you work at something that you’re passionate about, the time you spend on work, doesn’t seem like work at all. Christine co-founded Women on a Mission - a social enterprise that combines travel, sport and adventure with her passion to end violence against women. Now I’m not talking about leisurely travel here, some of their recent missions have included one to Iran in November 2016 where they trekked 200km of dessert. They also recently went to Jordan for rock climbing, Siberia to live with the nomadic Nenets reindeer herders and even up to Everest Base Camp in 2012. These trips are not for the faint-hearted. We’ll chat about how they do these trips, prepare for them and how these trips contribute to the fight to end violence against women. Let’s get in to the show!    Favorite quote from episode: “It may sound cliché, but I really believe that if you follow your passion and you do that throughout your life - even through the tough times when you think ‘oh I should just get safe job’ or, ‘I should just stick to something that is less flamboyant or risky’, but I think that if you do that continuously through your life, it ends up all just coming together.” – Christine [20:50]   People/ items mentioned in this episode: Women On A Mission Smart Girl’s Handbook to Being Mummylicious  Women for Women International Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE) UN Women Singapore Pertapis Children’s Home Singapore Changemaker workshop (AWARE)     Get in contact with Christine on her website, Twitter, or through Women On A Mission   Show notes What is Women On A Mission?

Lucy Ash visits Russia's new energy frontier in the Arctic Yamal region and explores the impact oil and gas extraction is having on the indigenous people there. Gradually but inexorably, reindeer give way to railroads and gas rigs. She goes to stay with a family of herders near the base of the Yamal Peninsula, whose name in the local Nenets language means "the end of the earth." Yamal is home to the largest single area of reindeer husbandry in the world and unlike many indigenous people of the north in Canada, the USA and other parts of Russia, the Nenets herders have proved remarkably resilient. They survived both collectivisation in Soviet times and the chaos of the transition to a market economy in the 1990s. But now there is a new threat as Vladimir Putin has vowed to "turn Yamal into the new oil and gas province of Russia." Lucy's host in the tundra, Nikolai Khudi, is philosophical about the changing world around him and wary of criticising the state monopoly Gazprom. The flow of oil and gas revenue to the region has brought social benefits such as decent schools and hospitals. Many nomads have willingly given up their traditional lives, and even those who've remained on the tundra now enjoy snow mobiles, satellite dishes and mobile phones. But Nikolai's brother Yevgeny worries their way of life is endangered and that fish may soon disappear from lakes and rivers because of the drilling. But Moscow is determined to exploit the treasures under the permafrost. The president elect is heavily dependent on hydrocarbons and is counting on them to fulfil recent campaign promises. At the current levels of price and consumption, the natural gas reserves in Russia's Arctic region, would generate enough fuel to feed Europe for around 75 years, with a total value of almost $17 trillion. The fate of this frozen territory thousands of miles from the Kremlin speaks volumes about the Russian state both past and present.
