Victor Ochen grew up in a refugee camp in Northern Uganda in the 1980s and 1990s at the height of the Ugandan civil war, one of Africa's longest conflicts. He has become a spokesperson for the people of Northern Uganda and has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Conflict is the biggest barrier to tackling climate change, says youth advocate Victor Ochen. Having seen firsthand how war undermined Uganda's economic and environmental potential, he explains the need to address the shared root causes of conflict and climate issues — starting by empowering African youth.

A Ugandan man, some of whose family and friends were abducted in the East African country, tells the story of his journey from war-torn childhood to becoming the youngest ever African nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.Victor Ochen grew up in northern Uganda at a time when the Lord's Resistance Army, or LRA, was terrorising the region with violent abductions, forced child soldier recruitment, and widespread atrocities against civilians.For 21 years the focus of his life was survival, struggling to find enough to eat in a variety of internal displacement camps.To mark International Youth Day, UN News' Julia Foxen spoke to Mr. Ochen about how his choice of nonviolence at only 13 forever transformed his life, highlighting the immense vulnerability of youth in conflict zones alongside their potential to transform the future of society.
Hannah hat eine große Tasse Kaffee vor sich stehen, obwohl sie schon einen sehr langen Mittagsschlaf hinter sich hat. Ihr Garten liegt auch voll mit Holz und, als wäre das nicht genug, musste sie sich mit dem Gewächshaus-Steffen politisch auseinandersetzen… Anstrengend. Oder wie Zora sagt, HALTS MAUL! Da hat wohl jemand den Thomas Gottschalk gemacht. Ob die Tomaten es schaffen werden? Zora hat auch viele Diskussionen geführt, allerdings mit ihren Geschwistern. Ach, so ein Laden ist immer viel Planung und das Hamburger Schulterblatt ist halt auch einfach eine gute Lage. Aufgemuntert wurden alle mit der NDR-Nordtour-Doku, die endlich erschienen ist. Und das, obwohl der Sender sich mies verplappert hat. Jetzt wissen es auch wirklich alle: Rainer Sass geht in PIEEP. Der Pilot mit Zora ist auch in der Kiste. Es müssen sich wohl alle Parteien noch daran gewöhnen, dass es eben nicht mehr Rainer Sass ist, der da sitzt. Ab in den Service! Hanna wurde von Maria ins Bonvivant eingeladen – ein vegetarisch/veganes Restaurant mit einem Stern. Hanna erzählt von der Getränkebegleitung, die eine Cocktailbegleitung und keine klassische Weinbegleitung war. Schwierig… Was beide davon halten, hört ihr heute. Zora denk in dem Zuge nochmal über ihr Frühstücks-Menü nach. Und liebes Cream-Team, es gibt News… Im kulinarischen Dreierlei wird es heute bitter. Aber gut bitter, denn Zora und Hanna sprechen über ihre liebsten Lebensmittel, mit den unterschiedlichsten Bitterstufen. Sie sind alle nicht nur unglaublich lecker, sondern meist auch wunderschön. Dabei kommt etwas zurück, das es schon in ein anderes Dreierlei geschafft hat… was mag es wohl sein? Außerdem erfahrt ihr, was Bier, Oliven und Kaffee miteinander zu tun haben. Zora betreibt schon seit Jahren eine Marktforschung dazu! Danach wird das Bier auch hier gebraucht. Auf dem Land macht man ja alles wetterabhängig, also muss Hanna mal schauen, wonach ihr so ist. Klar ist: Es wird geackert. Mehr Erde wird gebraucht – 800 Kilogramm reichen nämlich nicht aus. Bei Hannas Erzählungen über die Preise geht Zora ein Licht auf. Für sie heißt es auch ackern, aber nicht auf dem Acker, sondern mit Teresa am neuen „Schmeckt. Immer.“-Dreh für die dritte Staffel. Außerdem ist Schlemmen angesagt und Hanna muss noch einmal rein nach Berlin. Ihre Laune hält sich in Grenzen, aber nicht wegen des bevorstehenden Events, sondern wegen Berlin. Zora will auch einen Garten und die beiden sprechen abschließend über Umzugspläne.
Earthkeepers: A Circlewood Podcast on Creation Care and Spirituality
This special episode features a guest host from Uganda, Dr. Edward Olara, who Forrest interviewed in episode 71. Edward was once Forrest's student and has become a friend; they've worked together in Uganda to encourage and empower development professionals. Recently, Edward published a book called The Elephants and the Farmers. As the HOST of this episode, Dr. Olara interviews a Ugandan friend and colleague, Mr. Victor Ochen, the founder and Executive Director of the African Youth Initiative. Born in northern Uganda, he spent his first 21 years surviving a violent conflict that in the end displaced over three million people. In that conflict, the Lord's Resistance Army forcefully recruited or abducted 60,000 children to serve as soldiers—and among them was Mr. Ochen's own brother, who has never been returned. Since then, Mr. Ochen has worked for peace and healing—especially for victims of the war. In 2015, Forbes Magazines named him one of the ten most influential men to give new hope for Africa, and in that same year he became the youngest-ever African to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. More recently, he was awarded Archbishop Desmond Tutu's prestigious African Young Leaders Award for his role in promoting the culture of dignity, peace and reconciliation.

Die heutige Folge startet mit einem Huster von Hanna, die ist nämlich nicht so fit. Zora hingegen ist der Sonnenschein pur, denn sie ist zurzeit auf Bali – beziehungsweise auf der Nachbarinsel Lombok. Nach 9 Tagen hat sie nun auch den Jetlag überwunden, aber wie schaut es mit dem Flug nach Lombok aus? Der war schon was besonders Heißes… Auf Lombok warteten dann jedenfalls fünf Tage paradiesischer Urlaub auf Zora und ihren Freund Philipp. Die haben die beiden dann auch genossen, bis das Urlaubspech wieder zugeschlagen hat und Philipp einen Rollerunfall hatte… Glück im Unglück, dass er direkt vor einem Medical-Center stürzte, doch fällt das Surfcamp nun schon wieder ins Wasser? Hanna isst in Berlin, denn sie ist zurzeit bei ziemlich vielen Dinnern eingeladen, was ihr bei der Genesung nicht viel hilft, aber schön ist. Außerdem war sie – der Jahreszeit entsprechend – Pilze sammeln oder, wie sie als Kennerin sagt „in den Pilzen“. Hannas Beet wird nun auch final abgeerntet und das rauschende Erntedankfest hat einen schlimmen Kater gefördert. Das private Dinner für die Tochter von Hannas Klavierlehrerin ist auch richtig gut gelaufen. Tolong layanannya! – So mag es gerade vielleicht klingen, wenn Zora „Service bitte“ ruft. Ihre Erfahrungen mit der örtlichen Gastro waren eher einfach, in jedem Fall aber lecker. Was es alles gab? Hört selbst. Wellen schlagen tut nicht nur das leckere indonesische Essen, sondern auch das Meer: Zora wirft sich mehr oder weniger mutig, aber stetig in die Fluten und hat das Anfängerinnen-Stadium als Surferin längst dem Ozean übergeben. Im Dreierlei dieser Woche geht es passend zum Urlaub um Tropenfrüchte. Was ist euer Favorit? Das Feierabendbier ist nur für Zora ein solches. Für Hanna ist es wegen der 7 Stunden Zeitverschiebung ein Frühstücksbier. Hanna ist am Wochenende in der Heimat in Parchim und besucht Podcast-Legende Laura Larsson. Warum und ob es noch zum Martini-Markt geht, ist noch offen. Außerdem wird sie einen Kochkurs geben. Zora wollte eigentlich noch ein kleines Baustellen-Update aus dem Blattgold geben, aber ihre Geschwister senden keine Fotos. Wahrscheinlich, damit sie auch mal Urlaub macht. Es stehen jetzt jedenfalls noch ein paar Tage Sufcamp und dann entspannen in einer anderen Unterkunft an.

In this episode, our team has an insightful conversation with Dr. Danny Burns and Dr. Marina Apgar. Danny Burns is a Professorial Research Fellow at the Institute for Development Studies (IDS) a think tank affiliated with the University of Sussex in England. He has directed more than 25 action research projects and programmes. His work focuses on participatory learning for social change with a strong emphasis on systems thinking and complexity. Marina Apgar is Research Fellow in the Participation, Inclusion and Social Change cluster at IDS. She is a human ecologist with 20 years experience working in the research-practice divide with marginalised communities in international development supporting learning and change in complex systems. Danny and Marina are working on a large-scale system-changing project called Child Labour: Action-Research-Innovation in South and South-Eastern Asia [CLARISSA]. Started in 2016, CLARISSA has a team of more than 150 members. In this episode, Adam and Joe discuss what AR looks like on the ground, and specifically in a large-scale project. What does the creation process look like? How does this huge collaborative team work reflexively in this AR framework? This conversation starts with our classic lightning round where we dive into questions such as: what is systemic AR? (5:17) what does collaboration look like in systemic AR? (6:34) what is IDS? what makes IDS a fertile ground for this sort of AR? (7:40) And, what is your greatest critique of AR? (12:20). In the later segment, we dive deeper to learn more about CLARISSA, which is built on three core values (but not limited to them): 1. child-centred, 2. participation, and 3. being truly integrated (16:55). This is a really big project that involves a lot of stakeholders, participants, and organizations who work collaboratively in variety of different ways (26:57). How does the creation of processes look in this space? To understand this, Adam and Joe ask questions about how the planning process, facilitation and relationship building looks (36:11). Our team wraps up the conversation by raising one of the classic and significant question that we are trying to explore layer by layer in our podcast-Reflexivity! One of the core components of PAR is reflexivity. Find out how Marina and Danny engage reflexively in such a huge collaborative team in CLARISSA (48:00), by tuning in! References Apgar, J.

A childhood shaped by one of the most cruel rebel groups in history. Rape, killings and an abducted brother who was never found. If these defined decades of your life, the last thing you would want to talk about is peace — unless you are Victor Ochen. Our first episode takes us to Uganda, which has been plagued by civil unrest and rebellion since the 1980s. We dive into Victor's life, a young man, wise beyond his years, who refused to be enlisted as a child soldier. Growing up in between refugee camps, Victor was forced to confront his inner demons for survival, and won. Victor was hailed a hero for peace in his country, becoming the youngest ever African nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in 2015.

Sigmund's cult of scroll worship has grown strong since Rayne, by the power of the One, bound and banished the demons. Now, with a unified presence on Nemora, Seth Hamlin and his United Scrolls of Ochen are close to opening the way for the demonic forces to return.

Our guest for this week is Psyman OChen, a nomadic traveler and adventurer who has traveled 47 000 km in 3 years, mostly by hitchhiking.Back in 2013, Psyman embarked on a journey seemingly without a cause nor an endpoint. His experience started as a response to the anxiety he felt when he realized he had to make an important decision about how he wanted to live his life. He was aware that he only had one go at this wild game and the road seemed to call out to him, presenting a perfect solution. Even though his anxieties and fears were only substituted with new ones coming from questions like “Where am I going to sleep tonight?” or “What am I going to eat tomorrow?”, he pressed on.Psyman became accustomed to the conditions as he found that connecting with people in new settings allowed him to release all the tension he would normally feel in these unusual circumstances. Throughout his 3 year journey, he’s traveled across Asia, Africa, and Australia, playing his guitar, making art installations, meeting new friends and earning nicknames along the way such as Hamlet, Moses, Noah, Jesus, Guitar Jesus, Robinson Crusoe, Chuck Norris, Funny Man and many more. He traveled more than 47 000 km encountering all kinds of situations, some of which you can read about on his blog called The Nomadic Diaries. He is currently working on a book as well as preparing a documentary.Connect with Psyman:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/simon.o.chenYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7G20d67A_Htj2plbDABB7A vWebsite: https://thenomadicdiaries.wordpress.com/Psyman’s Story of Inspired Evolution“I went on a walkabout 5 years ago.” - Psyman OChenBefore his epic journey across three continents that would change the course of his life, Psyman was working in hospitality. His experience in this field is not one he remembers fondly as he was pushed by his employer to the point of having to quit and try his luck elsewhere. As things usually go in life, periods of difficulty are also opportunities to reflect and search within ourselves for what’s really important to us in life. And through self-reflection, Psyman realized that his aspirations were never aimed at achieving financial wealth. After a period of intense pondering, the answer simply came to him and he knew what he had to do.“I need to hit the road. I need to travel, I need to see the world. I need to step outside of society and observe it.” - Psyman OChenHe sought to spread the message of helping the environment but needed to figure out a way to travel the world without money. Using the principles of barter economy and hitchhiking he managed to cross a staggering 47 000 km, starting with Melbourne and finishing his journey in Israel.The Benefits of Crossing Borders on the Road“When you fly, it’s quite a shock when you go to a new land because all airports are built the same. It’s just a shopping center with busses with wings.” - Psyman OChenPsyman highlights the difference between entering a new country by land and by plain, via an airport. He describes the phenomenon of cultural shock you feel when you experience a social setting that is vastly different from what you’re used to by simply going through the exit doors at the airport. He argues that a much better way to travel is to change the process of your surroundings was done gradually. Your mind will have the time to adjust to subtle differences and you wouldn’t feel like your brain is bombarded with all this new information that you have to process like listening to a new language you don’t understand yet for example.“Whereas you travel by land, you gradually enter cultures because every culture is quite similar from the one you left to the one you’re entering.” - Psyman OChenShowing Hospitality Towards Foreigners“People will go out of their way to help out a foreigner to show to them: ‘Hey, we’re not like we’re portrayed in the news.’, but then why don’t they do that to their neighbor?” - Psyman OChenOn his travels, Psyman has visited numerous countries across three continents and has discovered friends and was blessed with hospitality everywhere he went. He was very touched by the fact that people were so giving and kind to a man they’ve only just met, but a question always came to his mind as a reaction to this unexpected kindness. Why are people reluctant to treat their neighbors the same way? It is a pattern that he spotted in most countries, even though it might sound counter-intuitive at first. He also talks about how this gregarious experiences across the world changed his perception and his behavior in mundane situations when he came home to Australia.Psyman’s Message of Inspired EvolutionAside from being a great conversation about the amazing experiences of traveling across three continents and exploring different cultures, this podcast also presents valuable insight for all those who are bothered and looking for a way of overcoming difficult times, personal crises and dealing with anxiety. Surely, one who has been on the road for three years, without a roof over his head, never knowing where his next meal will come from knows a thing or two about overcoming personal fears? During his time at sea, Psymen has encountered much adversity and insecurity but his simple solution was to always seek and find solace in three simple words:“Everything will pass.” - Psyman OChen See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The Light Arises is epic fantasy. Themes of trust, hope, and redemption thread through Rayne's story as he continues his journey to reclaim the seven hidden scrolls of the One and defeat the rising darkness that would enslave the worlds of Ochen. In the fullness of time, the Light Bringer will arise. The lost will be found and he will bring to light my seven words hidden on the seven worlds, and I will guide his steps. When Rayne dreams of a golden-haired girl and the voice of the One calling him to bring light to Veres, he knows the scroll he must seek next is the Words of the One to Veres. But only those involved with the brutal games staged by the powerful Sorial merchants, are allowed access to Veres. To infiltrate the games, and skip to the isolated world, Rayne must, once again, become the warrior-slave Wren. Lady Alexianndra Erland’s world was shattered three years ago when a young assassin destroyed her home and disabled her father. Now she leads the rebel faction. When news reaches her that the royal Prince of all Ochen is at the Andersen House Gaming Complex, Lexi devises a plan to compel King Theodor to help her people. Her strategy? Kidnap the prince when he leaves the games, and use him to gain the king’s attention. When morning light reveals the truth, will Lexi find her hoped for leverage with the king, or the assassin of her nightmares? And will Rayne be able to convince the girl of his dream to look past her desire for vengeance long enough for him to fulfill his calling? Listen in to my conversation with C. S.

Keynote speech door Victor Ochen, African Youth Initiative Network.
This Horses Mouth Psyman talks his Journey from war to an epiphany that had him journey from Melbourne to Jerusalem on the barter and boats.
Light and dark battle for the soul of six-year old Prince Rayne, heir to the throne of all Ochen and prophesied Light Bringer of the One. Kidnapped, his memories and voice blocked, claimed as a slave, and given the name Wren, he is raised as an assassin. Sigmund, powerful ancient sorcerer and enemy of the One, plans to frustrate the prophecy by using the young prince to assassinate his own parents. With the death of the Light Bringer and the failure of the prophecy, Sigmund and his demonic colleagues will be free to bring darkness to all seven worlds of Ochen. But what the sorcerer fails to realize is that the One has already claimed the boy, placing within his spirit a glowing ember of light, and giving him support in a world of abuse and violence. The Seven Words fantasy series, though set in a far distant future, is a sword and sorcery tale that explores the working out of prophecy through themes of forgiveness, trust, and courage.

The Nobel Peace Prize is announced on October 9. In March this year, Victor Ochen was nominated for the 2015 prize by the same organization the nominated previous laureates, Martin Luther King, Jr, Desmond Tutu, Jimmy Carter and Dag Hammarskjold Victor Ochen may not be a household name. But that may soon change. He is the founder of the peace and reconciliation NGO African Youth Initiative Network, which is active in Northern Uganda. He was the first Ugandan and youngest African ever nominated for the prize. Victor has a powerful personal story. He grew up in IDP camps fleeing LRA violence and even lost his brother to the LRA. But throughout it all he maintained a commitment to peace and justice. In this episode, Victor discusses his nomination, tells stories from a childhood in conflict, and explains why he started an NGO. This is an edited repost of Episode 53
2015 Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Victor Ochen is the youngest African and first Ugandan to receive the peace prize nomination. Despite spending most of his life surrounded by war, crimes against humanity, and often surviving on one meal per day, Victor maintained a deep love for peace and powerfully activated his community.
