On this episode of the Charity Charge Show, host Grayson Harris sat down with Teresa Stafford-Wright, CEO of the Hope and Healing Survivor Resource Center, to discuss what it really takes to serve survivors of sexual violence, domestic violence, and human trafficking and what it takes to keep those services running.This is not light work. It is urgent, complex, and deeply human. And it requires more than just good programming. It requires strong operations, honest fundraising, and a community that understands what it actually costs to keep the doors open.Serving Survivors Since 1974The Hope and Healing Survivor Resource Center has served Northeast Ohio since 1974.The organization supports survivors across Summit and Medina Counties with a full spectrum of services, including:24-hour crisis hotlineEmergency shelterCounseling and clinical servicesCourt and legal advocacyHospital accompaniment during forensic examsPrevention education in schools and community spacesEvery service is free. That is not negotiable.As Teresa explained, survivors should not have to pay to recover from a crime committed against them. Whether someone calls at 3:00 a.m. or 3:00 p.m., they are met by trained professionals ready to respond through a trauma-informed lens.This is both crisis response and long-term healing. And it requires serious infrastructure.

You can be like them by clicking here: https://www.patreon.com/EVNewsDailyLUCID LIFTS SALES, STILL BLEEDS CASHLucid posted Q4 2025 revenue of $522.7 million — more than double the prior year — and full-year revenue of $1.35 billion (+68%), while delivering 15,841 vehicles in 2025 (+55%), its eighth consecutive quarter of record deliveries, backed by $4.6 billion in liquidity. The growth comes at a steep price: the company burned $3.8 billion in cash in 2025, announced its third layoff in three years (cutting 12% of US salaried staff), and is banking on a new ~$50,000 midsize SUV later in 2026.EU PETROL AND DIESEL SHARE SLIDES AGAINEU new car registrations fell 3.9% in January 2026, but the real story is the collapse in fossil fuel powertrains: the combined petrol and diesel share fell from 39.5% a year ago to just 30.1%, down from 48.7% in January 2024, with petrol registrations dropping 28.2% year-on-year across France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. Pure BEVs took a 19.3% share (up from 14.9% twelve months prior), and electrified powertrains collectively accounted for around 68% of all January registrations.COMMISSION DELAYS "MADE IN EUROPE" PROCUREMENT ACTThe European Commission's Industrial Accelerator Act — which would add a "European preference" to public procurement, including a 70% EU-origin threshold for electric vehicles — has been delayed for a fourth time, now targeting a 4 March presentation. The UK has raised concerns that any protectionist tilt could damage cross-Channel automotive supply chains, given the EU is the largest export market for UK-built cars.VOLVO RECALLS 40,323 EX30S OVER FIRE RISKVolvo has issued a formal recall of 40,323 EX30 Single-Motor Extended Range and Twin-Motor Performance vehicles over a battery overheating risk — caused by lithium plating growth in cells from Shandong Geely Sunwoda Power Battery Co — that could trigger a fire. Volvo will replace the battery modules free of charge, but has disputed Reuters' estimate that the replacements alone could cost around $195 million, while continuing to advise owners to cap charging at 70% until their vehicle is fixed.T&E PUSHES EU TO TOUGHEN CORPORATE EV QUOTASTransport & Environment, an NGO advocating for clean transport, is urging the EU to raise corporate fleet EV targets to 69% zero-emission vehicles by 2030 — well above the Commission's proposed 45% — while excluding PHEVs entirely, arguing that company car drivers rarely plug in and routinely exceed lab-test emissions figures. Corporate buyers account for roughly 60% of new EU car sales, and T&E says its stricter targets would deliver 1.9 million additional EU-made EV sales in 2030, versus 1.2 million under the current Commission plan, while redirecting €42 billion in annual fossil fuel company car tax subsidies toward EU-built EVs.VAUXHALL CONFIRMS ELECTRIC CORSA GSE FOR 2026Vauxhall has confirmed a fully electric Corsa GSE for 2026, the brand's first hot hatch in eight years and the second model under its revived GSE performance sub-brand. The car is expected to carry over the Mokka GSE's 276bhp front motor, 54kWh battery, Torsen limited-slip differential, and Alcon brakes — a combination that delivers 0–62mph in 5.9 seconds on the Mokka, matching the Mini Cooper Electric JCW.RENAULT TO BUY OUT FLEXIS PARTNERSRenault plans to take full ownership of Flexis, its electric van joint venture, by buying out partners Volvo Group and CMA CGM — part of a broader retrenchment under new CEO François Provost that also sees the Ampere EV and software unit folded back into Renault Group by as early as July 2026. The first Flexis product, the Renault Trafic Van E-Tech, remains on track for production at Sandouville before the end of 2026, with Renault Trucks distributing the van from 2027 under an existing light commercial vehicle partnership.LEPAS CONFIRMS L8 SUV FOR UK LAUNCHChery-owned Lepas has confirmed its L8 SUV as its first UK model, with a summer 2026 launch expected and full specifications still to come. The most likely powertrain is the plug-in hybrid system shared with the UK-spec Jaecoo 7 — a 1.5-litre petrol engine paired with an electric motor and 18.3kWh battery delivering 56 miles of electric range and 204bhp total — with a pure EV variant expected to follow.HONDA ICON E: ELECTRIC SCOOTER HITS ¥220,000 IN JAPANHonda has launched the ICON e: electric scooter in Japan at ¥220,000 (~$1,435 / €1,350), undercutting its own petrol mopeds by around ¥20,000 and claiming 81km (50 miles) of range via a removable, swappable Mobile Power Pack e: battery. Accessible from age 16 under Japan's moped licence class — mirroring the EU's AM category — the ICON e: is designed for urban practicality over headline specs, and its sub-€1,400 price positions it well as European cities continue to tighten low-emission zones.

Safe, clean drinking water should be a given. It is not.On this episode of The Charity Charge Show, host Stephen Garten sits down with Doc Hendley, founder and CEO of Wine to Water, to talk about the real story behind the organization, how it grew from a tip jar at a bar to serving millions of people, and what it takes to lead and scale a mission-driven nonprofit for more than two decades.Doc does not dress it up. He talks about mistakes, hard lessons, and why most nonprofits stay stuck under $2M in annual revenue. He also lays out what changed when Wine to Water stopped acting like a typical nonprofit and started building diversified revenue streams like a business.

What happens when a Hopi tribal member steps into one of mining's most complex spaces — not to fight it blindly, not to defend it blindly — but to bridge it? We sit down with LeRoy Shingoitewa of WestLand Resources at the AEMA Annual Meeting for one of the most powerful and perspective-shifting conversations we've had to date. Raised in Moenkopi, Arizona — where some villages still live without running water or electricity by choice — LeRoy shares what it means to carry ancestral responsibility into modern industry. From hauling water at his grandmother's home to biology, to cultural resource consultant, LeRoy explains how traditional ecological knowledge and Western science can coexist — and why both are critical in today's mining landscape. We dive into tribal sovereignty, legacy uranium impacts, water rights, permitting reform, trust-building, consultation breakdowns, NGO pressure, and what real partnership between tribes and mining companies actually looks like. This isn't a surface-level conversation. It's about preservation, accountability, education, and long-term relationship building. It's about starting with respect instead of checking a box. And it's about one man choosing to stand in the middle — not for money, not for politics — but to make sure his people have a voice at the table. Please help us welcome LeRoy Shingoitewa to the Face. Big thanks to the American Exploration and Mining Association (AEMA) for having Mining Minds out at the event. We truly appreciate the opportunity and the work you continue to do to support and elevate the voices across our mining industry.

Magtfulde virksomheder og personer bruger i stigende grad retssystemet til at intimidere kritikere med dyre og langvarige retssager. De såkaldte SLAPP-sager er ikke først og fremmest tænkt til at få oprejsning for en potentiel krænkelse, men til at skræmme journalister, NGO'er, forskere og andre deltagere i den offentlige debat til tavshed.

The Work of Disaster: Crisis and Care Along a Himalayan Fault Line (U Chicago Press, 2025) is a compelling portrait of post-disaster imaginaries of repair in Nepal. In a world of cascading disasters, what are the consequences of transient care? In 2015, a 7.8-magnitude earthquake and equally powerful aftershock struck the central region of Nepal. The disaster claimed over 9,000 lives and inspired a surge of humanitarian concern for the mental health of Nepali people. In The Work of Disaster, based on extensive fieldwork in the region, anthropologist Aidan Seale-Feldman examines what disaster generates, and the fraught relationship between crisis and care. Moving between NGO offices, mountain trails, therapeutic interventions, and affected villages, Seale-Feldman tells the story of an emergent “mental health crisis” and the forms of care that followed in the disaster's wake. She also analyzes how emergency services transform the places they seek to assist; the challenges of psychiatric support provided by international organizations; and the place of mental health counseling in a modern biopolitical reality. The Work of Disaster reveals the contiguous violence and gentleness of humanitarian encounters, engaging with broader debates about worldmaking and the ethics of care. Aidan Seale-Feldman is a medical and psychological anthropologist and Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Notre Dame.

Tổng bí thư đảng Cộng Sản Việt Nam Tô Lâm đã đến Washington trong tuần qua để dự cuộc họp khai mạc “Hội đồng Hòa bình” do Donald Trump thành lập. Nhân dịp này, ông Tô Lâm đã hội kiến tổng thống Mỹ tại Nhà Trắng ngày 20/02/2026. Chuyến đi Hoa Kỳ của ông Tô Lâm được báo chí quốc tế chú ý vì đây là chuyến công du đầu tiên đến một cường quốc kể từ khi ông được bầu làm tổng bí thư thêm một nhiệm kỳ và kể từ nay thâu tóm mọi quyền lực trong tay. Theo thông báo của chính quyền Hà Nội, trong cuộc gặp với ông Tô Lâm, tổng thống Trump cho biết sẽ xóa tên Việt Nam khỏi "danh sách kiểm soát xuất khẩu chiến lược (D1 - D3)", tức là danh sách các quốc gia bị hạn chế tiếp cận công nghệ tiên tiến của Mỹ. Cuộc gặp tại Nhà Trắng diễn ra sau khi các hãng hàng không Việt Nam công bố các hợp đồng trị giá tổng cộng 37 tỷ đô la mua 90 máy bay Boeing.  Trang mạng The Diplomat ngày 23/02/2026, nhận định, thông báo nói trên của tổng thống Trump "là dấu hiệu cho thấy sự tin tưởng chiến lược ngày càng tăng giữa hai quốc gia. Tuy nhiên, xét đến vị trí mang tính cơ cấu của Việt Nam trong chuỗi cung ứng liên kết Mỹ và Trung Quốc, thương mại và thuế quan có khả năng sẽ là điểm gây bất đồng chính giữa Hà Nội và Washington trong thời gian còn lại của nhiệm kỳ thứ hai của ông Trump." Đàm phán thương mại gay go Quan hệ Việt-Mỹ hiện nay đang phần nào bị chựng lại do bế tắc trong đàm phán thương mại song phương. Trên trang mạng The Diplomat ngày 13/02, biên tập viên về Đông Nam Á Sebastian Strangio nhắc lại: “ Washington áp thuế 20% đối với hàng hóa Việt Nam từ tháng 8 năm ngoái. Hai nước đã tổ chức vòng đàm phán thứ sáu vào đầu tháng này, nhưng vẫn chưa đạt được thỏa thuận cuối cùng. Theo các nguồn tin được hãng tin Bloomberg trích dẫn, các cuộc đàm phán thương mại Mỹ-Việt Nam đang bế tắc về định nghĩa hàng hóa “trung chuyển”. Chính quyền Trump cho biết những hàng hóa “trung chuyển” sẽ bị đánh thuế 40%, nhưng vẫn chưa nói cụ thể xác cách thức xác định và xử lý loại hàng hóa đó.  Các cố vấn thương mại của ông Trump từ lâu vẫn cho rằng một lượng lớn hàng hóa Trung Quốc được vận chuyển qua Việt Nam, hoặc được sản xuất tại đó với rất ít nguyên liệu đầu vào, để tránh thuế quan của Mỹ đối với Trung Quốc. Họ cho đây là lý do chính dẫn đến thặng dư mậu dịch của Việt Nam đối với Mỹ, mức thặng dư lớn thứ ba thế giới sau Trung Quốc và Mêhicô.”  Các cuộc đàm phán thương mại có thể đã trở nên phức tạp hơn do mức thuế 20% đã không làm giảm đáng kể thặng dư thương mại của Việt Nam với Mỹ. Theo số liệu của chính phủ Việt Nam, xuất khẩu của Việt Nam sang Mỹ đã tăng từ 119,6 tỷ đôla năm 2024 lên 153,2 tỷ đôla năm ngoái, tăng 28%, đẩy thặng dư thương mại lên mức kỷ lục gần 134 tỷ đôla vào năm 2025, cao hơn đáng kể so với năm 2024. (1) Sebastian Strangio ghi nhận: “Chưa biết có dẫn đến bước đột phá nào trong thương mại với Mỹ hay không, chuyến công du lần này của ông Tô Lâm dường như phá vỡ một tiền lệ, đó là các lãnh đạo mới được bổ nhiệm của đảng Cộng Sản Việt Nam thường đến thăm Trung Quốc trước bất kỳ cường quốc lớn nào khác. Ngoài chuyến đi ngắn tới Cam Bốt và Lào vào ngày 5-6 tháng 2, chuyến thăm ông Tô Lâm tại Mỹ sẽ là chuyến thăm đầu tiên tới một cường quốc lớn kể từ khi Đại hội Đảng lần thứ 14 bầu ông làm tổng bí thư thêm nhiệm kỳ 5 năm.  Thực tế này đã khiến một số nhà quan sát cho rằng nó có thể phản ánh một sự thay đổi tiềm tàng trong định hướng chiến lược của Việt Nam. Tuy nhiên, xét đến tính nhất quán tương đối của chính sách đối ngoại Việt Nam trong hai thập kỷ qua, ta nên thận trọng, không diễn giải quá mức về thời điểm chuyến thăm của ông Tô Lâm sang Mỹ. Ngày diễn ra Hội nghị Thượng đỉnh Hội đồng Hòa bình là do Washington ấn định, chứ không phải do Hà Nội, và chuyến thăm của ông Tô Lâm cũng có thể xuất phát từ nhu cầu cấp thiết của Việt Nam đạt được một thỏa thuận thương mại với Hoa Kỳ, yếu tố cần thiết nếu đảng Cộng Sản Việt Nam (CPV) muốn đạt được các mục tiêu kinh tế đầy tham vọng trong những năm tới.  Ngoài ra, ông Tô Lâm hầu như không cho thấy dấu hiệu nào muốn xa rời Trung Quốc mà thật ra đang làm ngược lại, như nhận xét của Sheena Chestnut Greitens của Đại học Texas, Austin trên mạng X: “Tô Lâm là động lực thúc đẩy tăng cường hợp tác về an ninh nội bộ giữa Việt Nam với Trung Quốc.”  Thực tế là, theo Sebastian Strangio, “do tính khí thất thường của ông Trump và chính quyền của ông, cùng với tình trạng không chắc chắn của các cuộc đàm phán thương mại, quan hệ với Hoa Kỳ hiện cần được “chăm sóc” về mặt ngoại giao nhiều hơn so với mối quan hệ Việt Nam - Trung Quốc, vốn vẫn ổn định nhờ vào các chuyến thăm song phương luân phiên hàng năm của các quan chức hai bên. Rất có thể ông Tô Lâm sẽ sớm có chuyến thăm đáp lễ tới Bắc Kinh. Lần cuối cùng ông đi thăm Trung Quốc là vào tháng 8/2024, chuyến công du nước ngoài đầu tiên sau khi nhậm chức tổng Bí thư. Ông Tập Cận Bình đã đáp lễ với chuyến thăm Việt Nam hồi tháng 4 năm ngoái.” “Ngoại giao cây tre giữa cơn bão Trump” Trên trang mạng Financial Review của Úc ngày 16/02, ông James Curran, giáo sư Lịch sử Hiện đại và nghiên cứu viên cao cấp tại Trung tâm Nghiên cứu Hoa Kỳ thuộc Đại học Sydney, ghi nhận về đối ngoại, chính sách “ngoại giao cây tre” của Việt Nam “vẫn còn khá yếu ớt giữa cơn bão Trump”.  Giáo sư Curran trích nhận xét của một nhà phân tích: Thuế quan “ngày giải phóng” là một “cú đánh mạnh”, gợi lại những ký ức đau buồn về việc Washington lôi kéo Hà Nội gia nhập TPP ( Hiệp định Đối tác xuyên Thái Bình Dương ), rồi Chú Sam lại rút lui vào phút cuối. Một số người ở Hà Nội đang rất tức giận, nói rằng “người Mỹ hành xử không phải như một nhà tư bản mà là đế quốc”. Hà Nội hiện đang nhắm đến thỏa thuận tương tự thỏa thuận mà thủ tướng Ấn Độ Narendra Modi đã nhận được, tức là mức thuế 18%. Nhưng một nguồn tin từ Việt Nam lo ngại không biết chính quyền Washington có nhận thức được hậu quả hay không. Nhân vật này lập luận rằng tâm lý chống Trung Quốc ở Việt Nam đôi khi bị thổi phồng quá mức và nói thêm rằng “mọi người đang nhìn về phía Trung Quốc và tự hỏi liệu đó có phải là lựa chọn tốt hơn hay không.”  Theo giáo sư Curran, nói chuyện riêng, các quan chức Mỹ nhấn mạnh thông điệp của họ gửi tới Hà Nội rất thẳng thắn: “Hãy cẩn thận khi chơi trò thân mật với Bắc Kinh quá mức”. Họ nghĩ rằng Hà Nội sẽ nhượng bộ Trung Quốc một số điều, chẳng hạn như qua việc hợp tác trong dự án đường sắt cao tốc, nhưng về các khoáng sản quan trọng, chất bán dẫn và các lĩnh vực khác có tầm quan trọng quốc gia cao, "Hà Nội muốn chúng ta."  Chính sách đối ngoại thực dụng Trong bài viết đăng trên trang mạng Geopolitical Monitor ngày 28/01/2026, giáo sư James Borton, Viện Chính sách đối ngoại SAIS - Đại học Johns Hopkins (Mỹ), trước hết nhận định:  “Ông Tô Lâm đã làm được điều mà ít nhà lãnh đạo Việt Nam nào làm được từ nhiều thập niên qua: thâu tóm vững chắc quyền lực của Đảng và Nhà nước vào tay mình. Tái đắc cử tổng bí thư và chuẩn bị đảm nhiệm chức chủ tịch nước, ông Tô Lâm hiện đang đứng đầu cơ cấu lãnh đạo tập trung nhất của Việt Nam kể từ thời hậu chiến, một sự tập trung có thể giúp điều chỉnh lại sự cân bằng mong manh giữa Hà Nội và Washington. Những tác động đối với quan hệ Mỹ - Việt Nam là rất sâu sắc.”  Theo ông Borton, Washington, đặc biệt là dưới chính quyền Trump nhiệm kỳ thứ hai, vốn công khai ủng hộ việc hợp tác với các nhà lãnh đạo quyền lực, dĩ nhiên là rất hoan nghênh thực tế mới này. Sự tập trung quyền lực của ông Tô Lâm không chỉ là về chính trị, mà còn gắn liền với một kế hoạch kinh tế đầy tham vọng. Hà Nội đã đặt ra mục tiêu tăng trưởng hàng năm từ 10% trở lên trong giai đoạn 2026-2030, bằng cách đẩy mạnh sản xuất công nghệ cao, chuyển đổi số và mở rộng khu vực tư nhân. Để đạt được mục tiêu này, Việt Nam phải đảm bảo nguồn vốn, công nghệ và tiếp cận thị trường từ nước ngoài, đặc biệt là từ Hoa Kỳ.  Giáo sư Borton viết tiếp: “Yêu cầu cấp thiết về kinh tế đó giải thích cho chính sách đối ngoại thực dụng của ông Tô Lâm. Bất chấp những tranh chấp thương mại định kỳ và những lo ngại dai dẳng của Hoa Kỳ về thặng dư mậu dịch, quản lý tiền tệ và rào cản tiếp cận thị trường của Việt Nam, ông Tô Lâm đã theo đuổi một chính sách dựa trên sự linh hoạt hơn là dựa trên ý thức hệ. Việc ông sốt sắng nhận lời mời của Hoa Kỳ tham gia “Hội đồng Hòa bình”, một hành động được coi là nhanh bất thường theo tiêu chuẩn ngoại giao thận trọng cố hữu của Hà Nội, cho thấy ông sẵn sàng hợp tác với Washington, kể cả dưới thời tổng thống Donald Trump. Thông điệp rất rõ ràng: Để hiện đại hóa kinh tế Việt Nam cần phải có một mối quan hệ ổn định với Hoa Kỳ.” Tuy nhiên, theo giáo sư James Borton, việc ông Tô Lâm củng cố quyền lực cũng khiến tình hình trở nên phức tạp. Việt Nam từ lâu vẫn cố giữ thế cân bằng thận trọng giữa Washington và Bắc Kinh. Một cấu trúc lãnh đạo tập trung hơn có thể làm cho chiến lược cân bằng đó được sắc bén, nhưng cũng có thể thu hẹp không gian cho các cuộc tranh luận nội bộ mà trước đây vẫn giúp điều tiết các biến động về chính sách.  Theo giáo sư Borton, ông Tô Lâm thừa hiểu Trung Quốc vẫn là đối tác thương mại lớn nhất của Việt Nam và là thế lực áp đảo về địa lý và chiến lược. Còn Hoa Kỳ là thị trường xuất khẩu lớn nhất của Việt Nam và là nguồn cung cấp công nghệ tiên tiến và đầu tư không thể thiếu. Sự thịnh vượng của Việt Nam phụ thuộc vào cả hai mối quan hệ này.  Ông Borton viết tiếp: “Với quyền lực tập trung ở cấp cao nhất, ông Tô Lâm có thể hành động quyết đoán hơn trong các cải cách mà các ban lãnh đạo dựa trên sự đồng thuận trước đây vẫn thi hành một cách thận trọng. Các cải cách có thể bao gồm việc điều chỉnh quy định sâu rộng hơn để thu hút đầu tư của Mỹ trong ngành bán dẫn và trí tuệ nhân tạo và mở rộng hợp tác năng lượng - bao gồm các hợp đồng khí đốt tự nhiên hóa lỏng dài hạn của Mỹ, giúp thu hẹp thâm hụt thương mại song phương. Những bước đi như vậy sẽ phù hợp với các ưu tiên kinh tế và chiến lược của Washington.” Nhưng giáo sư Borton lưu ý: “Học thuyết chính sách đối ngoại của Việt Nam vẫn dựa trên sự độc lập, tự lực và chủ nghĩa đa phương. Hà Nội sẽ cố không để mình trở thành đồng minh chính thức của Mỹ hay trở thành một quốc gia đứng tuyến đầu trong cuộc cạnh tranh giữa các cường quốc. Quyền lực của Tô Lâm có thể cho phép ông đàm phán một cách tự tin với Washington, nhưng sẽ không khiến ông lệ thuộc vào Mỹ.” Đối với Hoa Kỳ, theo giáo sư Borton, “thách thức sẽ là làm thế nào hợp tác với Việt Nam dưới sự lãnh đạo của Tô Lâm để hỗ trợ cải cách kinh tế mà không gây ra phản ứng mang tính dân tộc chủ nghĩa. Việc gây áp lực mạnh mẽ lên Hà Nội về mất cân bằng thương mại hoặc vấn đề tiền tệ có thể làm phức tạp chương trình cải cách của Tô Lâm và củng cố những tiếng nói bảo thủ hơn trong chế độ. Ngược lại, sự hợp tác mang tính xây dựng, đặc biệt là về chuyển giao công nghệ, năng lượng sạch, hợp tác an ninh hàng hải và giáo dục, có thể củng cố con đường đến tăng trưởng giá trị cao hơn và hội nhập toàn cầu sâu rộng hơn của Việt Nam.” ___ (1)Theo AFP ngày 23/02/2026, Cơ quan Hải quan và Biên phòng Mỹ (CBP) thông báo ngừng thu các khoản thuế quan được áp đặt theo Đạo luật Quyền lực Kinh tế Khẩn cấp Quốc tế (IEEPA) từ 0h01 sáng 24/2 theo giờ miền Đông nước Mỹ (12h01 giờ VN), tức hơn ba ngày sau khi Tòa án Tối cao Mỹ tuyên bố phần lớn các mức "thuế đối ứng" mà chính quyền Trump ban hành ngày 02/04/32025 là bất hợp pháp.

Angola Project began as a graduate idea, but the real question is this: what happens when you turn a passion into your entire life? In this conversation, Ana Lucia Soares shares why she chose to leave stability in Portugal and commit full time to building shark conservation in Angola, and why that decision matters for ocean protection in underrepresented regions. Shark conservation in West Africa is not simple, and that is exactly the point. Ana Lucia explains what it takes to launch Elizmo Angola, navigate funding uncertainty, create local partnerships, and build trust in communities where conservation infrastructure is still developing. This is not just about sharks; it is about leadership, risk, and long-term impact. Starting an NGO sounds inspiring, but it is also deeply personal and emotionally demanding. One surprising insight from this episode is how clarity often comes not from certainty, but from stepping into uncertainty anyway. The move to Angola was not guaranteed to succeed, but waiting for perfect conditions would have meant never starting at all. Listen to the full episode.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, the head of Realign For Palestine, an Atlantic Council project that challenges entrenched narratives in the Israel and Palestine discourse. We begin the conversation with a bleak update on how Gazans are faring on the ground and hear anecdotes of poor hygiene and price gouging in the Strip. As the festive holy month of Ramadan begins, the lack of basic necessities becomes more stark for those who must fast all day but cannot feast at night. We then turn to the sudden announcement this week from Doctors Without Borders that it has suspended non-critical medical activities at Nasser Hospital in Gaza’s Khan Younis due to the presence of armed men at the medical facility and “a recent situation of suspicion of movement of weapons.” Alkhatib brings multiple examples of prior knowledge of the "armed men" in the hospital since Hamas's October 7, 2023, onslaught on southern Israel. He accuses the NGO of looking the other way as the terror organization took over hospital wings and turned them into prisons and torture chambers. So why did the international humanitarian group in Gaza decide to take notice now? And so this week, we ask Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, what matters now. What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts. This episode was produced by Ari Schlacht.

Join me and guest Jordan Sather (@Jordan_Sather_) as we center the real victims of Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking empire amid the chaos of 2026. The DOJ's massive file release brought horrors to light (torture evidence, rituals, thousands of media items), but sloppy redactions have harmed nearly 100 survivors and shielded powerful names. Now, Epstein's infamous Zorro Ranch has a new owner—Don Huffines, tied to Thomas Massie's campaigns—who's "transforming" it into a Christian retreat. Coincidence or controlled narrative? We discuss the grand jury still investigating co-conspirators, questions around funded survivor advocacy (Hoffman ads, NGO involvement), political virtue-signaling on transparency, and why the elite's games keep justice delayed. Survivors first—truth over optics.

Tết Bính Ngọ lại trở về với đồng hương người Việt trên nước Úc nầy. Hôm nay mùng Ba, không khí Tết vẫn tràn ngập tại các khu chợ Việt và nơi có người Việt sinh sống đông đúc. Ngoài những phong tục tập quán tốt đẹp được truyền thừa từ bao thế hệ, Tết vui vầy quanh mâm cỗ đầy với 'thịt mỡ dưa hành' và các món ăn truyền thống như bánh chưng bánh tết vân vân. Trong dịp nầy, việc chăm sóc sức khoẻ cho các bậc cao niên cũng nên lưu ý chẳng những thức ăn mà còn thời tiết nữa. Bác sĩ Brian Cung Đình Thanh Bình tại Sydney có những lời khuyên hữu ích sau đây.

Today's show is a compilation of the hottest stories of the week. There are several shocking happenings that include these:Sources say the President is prepared to launch an attack on Iran. And it may happen this weekend!11 skiers disappear in massive snow in the woods outside of Lake Tahoe. Twelve confirmed dead with one missing.More factual information confirms -- with NO questions -- NGO's ARE spending millions of dollars to fund these anti-ICE protests. The most-mentioned of these is George Soros's 'Open Society' NGO;Boeing announces it's moving a major section of its operations from Virginia back to St. Louis. No doubt, this was based on Virginia's new governor's policies.

Insurance is not glamorous. It is paperwork, premiums, and conversations most nonprofit leaders would rather avoid.But if you run a nonprofit long enough, you learn a hard truth.The moment you need insurance is the moment it is too late to start thinking about it.In this episode of the Charity Charge Show, host Stephen Garten sits down with Pamela Davis, Founder and CEO of the Nonprofit Insurance Alliance, a nonprofit insurer that serves roughly 26,000 to 27,000 nonprofits across California and 32 additional states. Pamela shares how a graduate school thesis turned into a 35 year mission, why traditional insurance markets fail nonprofits, and what new and small organizations need to know before a claim ever happens.Episode highlightsPamela Davis is the founder and CEO of the Nonprofit Insurance Alliance, a group of two nonprofit insurers built specifically to serve 501(c)(3)s. One entity insures nonprofits in California and the other insures nonprofits in 32 other states.Together, the organizations serve about 26,000 to 27,000 nonprofits and have grown to roughly $1 billion in assets.Stephen and Pamela also dig into the practical side of nonprofit coverage, what to buy first, how underwriting works for small budgets, and why advocacy has become a crucial part of keeping the nonprofit sector insurable.

In this episode, Hannah and Julia speak with the founders of Our Rule of Law (ORoL) Foundation about democracy, what it means to be the youngest voice t in the room and how youth can make a real impact. We had a pleasure to welcome Anna, Elene and Zuzanna, co-founders of ORoL Foundation, an organisation aiming to mobilise youth towards developing Pan-European policy solutions addressing the rule of law and democracy crisis. Our Rule of Law was founded in 2021, when Anna, Elene and Zuzanna were students at the University of Groningen. Inspired by a lecture on the rule of law crisis in Poland, they decided to continue the discussion with their Professor John Morijn and soon after, Our Rule of Law was born. Today, the organisation is a registered NGO in the Netherlands, bringing together young people who are dedicated to foster and understand the foundations of democracy. Since 2021, Our Rule of Law mobilized youth in various projects, such as the Vote4OurRuleofLaw (Vote4ORoL) Fellowship, designed to encourage young Europeans to engage more actively in the elections to the European Parliament .In September 2025, the organisation published ‘Our Democracy Report' written by Young Democracy Rapportours. The report is a joint effort of over 60 young researchers from 16 Member States, including Austria, as well as Ukraine. Listen to this episode to learn what it's like to build a student-led organisation and how youth can really make an impact in European policy-making. We also discuss the findings of the ‘Our Democracy Report' and Anna, Elene and Zuzanna share their stories and tips. We hope this episode can be both educational and inspiring!

I love building AI tools. But I'm worried we're forgetting how to connect on a human level.This episode is about presence, encounter, and why most leaders never practice the skill that matters most.THE 20:20:20 RULE (from Jacob Barnes / Simple Revolution):First 20 steps: How you enter the room. Bernhard practices his keynote entrances—wooden floor? Squeaky? How does it sound? Enter with full presence.First 20 seconds: NOT about talking. Taking in the room. Creating the bond. Finding 3-5 people to "play the room."First 20 words: Know them by memory. "If I wake you at 3am and say 'start your keynote,' you need to be able to say them." Everything else flows from there.YALOM'S WISDOM:Irvin Yalom (existential therapist, fiction writer—"When Nietzsche Wept," "The Schopenhauer Cure"):"The act of revealing oneself fully to another and still being accepted may be the major vehicle of therapeutic help."Not fixing. Not solving. Just creating space where someone can reveal themselves. And that takes practice.THE POWER OF SILENCE:Bernhard shares a coaching breakthrough: The client couldn't make business decisions. Brilliant at pros/cons lists. Would create 4th and 5th options rather than deciding.The silence revealed: Fear. Fear of not being accepted. Fear of not being enough."Suddenly, the silence brought us to the core."JAPANESE WISDOM FOR COUPLES:When in disagreement, sit for 3 minutes and look each other in the eye, then start discussing."Like eternity. Really difficult. But fantastic."THE VIKTOR NOVÁK SCENARIO:Imagine giving feedback to Viktor—52, Czech, 9 years at an NGO. Blocking grant applications. Missing deadlines. Paralyzed by fear.What you don't know: Wife chronically ill for 3 years. Daughter in university. Supporting an aging mother. Can't afford to lose this job.When he asks, anxious, "Am I in trouble?"—can you hold that moment? Can you stay present when he's terrified?Most leaders can't. Because they've never practiced.WHAT PRESENCE LOOKS LIKE:Specific evidence, not judgment: "3 applications pending 4 months" NOT "You're risk-averse"Impact without blame: "When applications stall, partners lose trust," NOT "You're hurting the mission."Create space: "What's been happening for you?" Actually listen.Hold the discomfort: Stay present when they're afraid.THE PRACTICE GAP:Musicians practice before stage. Olympic athletes train before competition. Pilots simulate emergencies.Leaders? We wing the difficult conversations.WHY ROLEPLAYS.AI:Practice Viktor's anxiety. His defensive excuses. The moment you have to balance safety and accountability.Not because the AI conversation is the destination. But because when you're with the REAL Viktor, you're ready to be present.THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE:One conversation. Practice presence.20:20:20 before you enterHold silence when they're uncomfortableDon't rush to fix. Just be there.Try the Viktor scenario FREE at www.roleplays.aiRemember: The practice prepares you. The real conversation is still yours.ALSO MENTIONED:Bernhard's "Private University" was built on Claude (AI)EU requirement: AI training for all employees who use AILou Salomé (Freud's muse, Rodin's muse—"probably inspired Freud for psychotherapy")Graz keynote: 2 minutes of silent eye contact = "most uncomfortable situation ever"#Presence #Leadership #Coaching #DifficultConversations #Yalom #Practice

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Alice Miller, the CEO of Natan Worldwide Disaster Relief. Miller is nationally known for her landmark Supreme Court case in 1995, which opened the gates of the Israel Air Force to female fighter pilots. This decision paved the way for today's female combat soldiers and made Miller a household name. However, that was just the start of Miller's incredible journey that has taken her around the globe -- and her work as an aeronautical engineer may even reach the moon. Today, Miller serves as the head of an NGO that brings volunteer medical staff and therapists into international disaster zones. In the past year alone, teams have landed in Syria, Mexico and are shortly taking off for Mozambique. Following the October 7, 2023, Hamas onslaught on southern Israel, the organization began work in Israel for the first time -- and eventually, also in the Gaza Strip. We learn about the principled decision that has Israelis serving Gazans as we ask Miller, what matters now.

Một trong những thú thưởng ngoạn của các bậc cao niên ngày xưa là gọt củ Thủy tiên để đón Tết. Các cụ quan niệm rằng ngày Tết mà có một chậu Thủy tiên nở đúng vào ngày đầu năm là một điềm hết sức may mắn, hoạnh tài và mang lại mọi đều ước nguyện cho gia đình trong năm mới. May mắn ông Lê Văn Ngọc, hội viên của Hội Ái Hữu trường Bưởi và Chu Văn An kể lại những điều mắt thấy tai nghe về thú tiêu khiển, mà ngày nay dường như không còn nữa.

Năm nay Bính Ngọ với con vật biểu tượng là con ngựa, lại trở về với người Việt chúng ta. Dù sống trên quê hương hay ăn Tết Bính Ngọ xa xứ, mọi người dân Việt đều đón Xuân ăn Tết, theo truyền thống của tổ tiên ngàn đời lưu lại. Con ngựa trong 12 con giáp Việt Nam được xem là ý tưởng của người Việt, theo lập thuyết của ông Nguyễn Cung Thông, một nhà nghiên cứu về khảo cổ ở Melbourne, mà năm nào ông cũng dành một buổi nói chuyện về con vật cầm tinh nầy trong 12 con giáp.

What if one of the simplest children's games was never meant to be a game at all?On today's episode of The Conscious Diva Podcast, I'm joined by Polina Rud, author of the new book The Cosmic Game of Snakes and Arrows: An Oracle for Mapping Your Destiny — a modern reimagining of an ancient spiritual teaching that includes the original game board itself.Long before Chutes and Ladders appeared in playrooms, there was Gyan Chaupar — the Game of Knowledge. It wasn't designed for entertainment, but for awakening. In this conversation, we explore:- How this ancient spiritual map became a modern board game, what was lost when meaning was stripped away.- Using the game as an oracle and a powerful divinatory tool. - How The Cosmic Game of Snakes and Arrows invites us to work consciously with destiny, choice, and self-awareness.- Polina explains how each square/tile on the board provides a philosophical key representing different levels of human experience. About Polina: Polina Rud is a doctoral candidate in art history at Moscow University with a master's in international relations. She is an art curator and lecturer with expertise in Theosophy, Nordic runic oracles, and Hindu astrology. She combines therapeutic experience, including mental health and suicide risk training at UNAM, with diverse spiritual teachings, and is the co-founder of El Mundo Duele, an NGO that provides psychological support to human rights and climate activists.  She's also a renowned gyan caupar guide; helping individuals uncover hidden obstacles. She lives in Mexico City.https://polinarud.comhttps://www.instagram.com/_polinarud/Thank you so much for listening, and thanks to my sponsors.This Episode is brought to you by: • The Sattva Collection - 10% off with code TheConsciousDiva• Birds & Beans Organic Coffee - 10% off with DIVA2025The Conscious Diva Podcast wouldn't be possible without your support!

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Alice Miller, the CEO of Natan Worldwide Disaster Relief. Miller is nationally known for her landmark Supreme Court case in 1995, which opened the gates of the Israel Air Force to female fighter pilots. This decision paved the way for today's female combat soldiers and made Miller a household name. However, that was just the start of Miller's incredible journey that has taken her around the globe -- and her work as an aeronautical engineer may even reach the moon. Today, Miller serves as the head of an NGO that brings volunteer medical staff and therapists into international disaster zones. In the past year alone, teams have landed in Syria, Mexico and are shortly taking off for Mozambique. Following the October 7, 2023, Hamas onslaught on southern Israel, the organization began work in Israel for the first time -- and eventually, also in the Gaza Strip. We learn about the principled decision that has Israelis serving Gazans as we ask Miller, what matters now.

Nhưng với sự phấn khích từ thành công trong việc kiểm soát dầu mỏ Venezuela, và được thúc đẩy bởi Ngoại trưởng Mỹ Marco Rubio — người đã tạo dựng sự nghiệp chính trị bằng cách thúc đẩy các chính sách cứng rắn với Havana — Trump đã thông báo trên mạng xã hội vào ngày 11 tháng 1: “SẼ KHÔNG CÒN DẦU HAY TIỀN ĐẾN CUBA – CON SỐ KHÔNG! Tôi đề nghị họ đưa ra một thỏa thuận, TRƯỚC KHI QUÁ MUỘN”.Xem thêm.

On this episode of the Charity Charged Show, we sit down with Hilary Axtmayer, Chief Program Officer of the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, to talk about one of the most meaningful nonprofit expansions happening this year.Founded in 1988 by Paul Newman, the Hole in the Wall Gang Camp was created to give children with serious illnesses something they are too often denied: the chance to simply be kids. More than three decades later, the organization is serving thousands of children and families across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, and in 2025 it is opening a second residential camp location in Maryland.This conversation goes beyond the headline of expansion. It digs into the origin of the camp's name, the magic of its programs, Hilary's 25-year journey from counselor to executive leader, and the careful work required to scale without losing the soul of the mission.

Day 1,443.Today, after an apparent assassination attempt on a senior Russian general in Moscow, we examine the major Russian bombardments across Ukraine that followed the second day of peace talks in Abu Dhabi.

California's governor is not concerned about the biggest healthcare fraud taking place in his state. He's taking on Dr. Oz and suing him for exposing it. President Trump talks about the secret weapon used to capture Nicolas Maduro as an eye witness who experienced it explains its discombobulating effects. Senator Eric Schmitt destroys a Soros-funded NGO head who believes everything he disagrees with is racist. Rep. Harriet Hageman is a national treasure.

The Prism of America's Education with Host Karen Schoen – It is becoming easier to see the results of these communist policies as they permeate American culture. Teaching kids that they are victims and are entitled to free stuff brings us a culture of ill-prepared, uneducated people, only capable of demanding free stuff. Those educated become bureaucrats, NGO's, government workers...

I cannot believe it. I analyzed public databases and media reporting on violent confrontations with ICE over the past year. Just 9 counties accounted for TWO-THIRDS of violent confrontations with ICE in America. This is twice all violent confrontations in the remaining 3,134 counties COMBINED.Democrats are in on it.

That's how they got all that political crap… Where is Bad Bunny from?” “Puerto Rico” “Keep his ass in Puerto Rico!”What Does God's Word Say?1 Kings 19:1-619 Saul told his son Jonathan and all the attendants to kill David. But Jonathan had taken a great liking to David 2 and warned him, “My father Saul is looking for a chance to kill you. Be on your guard tomorrow morning; go into hiding and stay there. 3 I will go out and stand with my father in the field where you are. I'll speak to him about you and will tell you what I find out.”4 Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father and said to him, “Let not the king do wrong to his servant David; he has not wronged you, and what he has done has benefited you greatly. 5 He took his life in his hands when he killed the Philistine. The Lord won a great victory for all Israel, and you saw it and were glad. Why then would you do wrong to an innocent man like David by killing him for no reason?”6 Saul listened to Jonathan and took this oath: “As surely as the Lord lives, David will not be put to death.”
