Además, comentamos la salida a bolsa de Space-X, que va a hacer riquísimo a Elon Musk y muy ricos a muchos de los empleados de Space-X. Por contra, muy poco de esa gigantesca fotruna sin precedentes, servirá para aliviar la pobreza de la mayoría. Como recuerda Oxfam, Musk personalmente acumula el dinero equivalente al 46% de la humanidad más pobre. Además, comentamos qué significa tanto desde el punto de vista medioambiental como del de la carrera tecnológica entre China y EEUU que el gigante asiático haya anunciado que empieza a operar su primer centro de datos submarino. Nos fijamos también en el desastre para el futuro de la soberanía tecnológica europea que ha supuesto el abandono ("por pura estupidez" según el primer ministro belga) del proyecto del caza europeo por desavenencias entre Alemania y Francia.
Helen Meech is Executive Director of the Climate Coalition, the UK's largest group of organisations dedicated to action on people, climate and nature. Over 130 member organisations, from the National Trust to Oxfam to Save the Children, plus a network of around 3,500 community organisers across the UK. And yet most people have never heard of them. As Helen explains, that's deliberate.We talk about Great Big Green Week, the Coalition's flagship campaign, running this year from 6 to 14 June. It has more than doubled in size every year for three years: 250,000 people, then 600,000, then 1.2 million last year, with around 2 million expected this year. The stat that matters most: over a third of attendees had never engaged with climate or nature before. They came because someone they knew organised something, or because it was free to do with the kids on a Saturday.We also dig into where power actually sits. Helen's framing, "creating the space for politics to move into," challenges the idea that change is something politicians do to us. And we compare notes on the People's Emergency Briefing, which we recently screened at the Grange Hub, and the tension every communicator in this space wrestles with: realism versus hope.The post-interview chat gets into Tom's view that the era of being polite about the emergency is over, Chloe's case for hope grounded in community rather than technology, and why we still don't have a Help for Heroes equivalent for the climate movement.About the guestHelen Meech is Executive Director of the Climate Coalition. She has spent 25 years in environmental campaigning and movement-building, including roles at the National Trust and the RSPB, where she was Head of Movement Building and led the development of the People's Plan for Nature. Her work is built on a single belief: people are powerful, especially when they come together.The Climate Coalition: theclimatecoalition.org Great Big Green Week: greatbiggreenweek.comChapters00:00 - Welcome and intros 01:30 - Grange update: screening the People's Emergency Briefing at the Hub 04:30 - Watching hard truths in community, and why that changes the experience 06:55 - Tom's case: the days of being polite about the emergency are over 07:30 - Wilder Connections summer programme: co-design with young people 10:57 - Who is the Climate Coalition? 14:59 - Why most people haven't heard of the Climate Coalition (on purpose) 17:24 - "Creating the space for politics to move into" 20:05 - Everyone has power: protest, community organising, media, culture 22:18 - Great Big Green Week: nightclubs, litter picks, fetes and school assemblies 23:59 - The infrastructure behind 6,000 local events 29:54 - Flooded pitches: why grassroots sport is organising 30:30 - The unexpected challenge: keeping the big NGOs on board 32:43 - Greenwashing and a brand with a life of its own 34:15 - The Coalition's three policy asks 36:50 - The five million target, and matching Children in Need for awareness 39:43 - Helen's reaction to the People's Emergency Briefing 42:28 - Rebecca Solnit and hope as an action 44:35 - How to get involved in Great Big Green Week 46:03 - Tom and Chloe debrief: community action vs direct action 48:27 - The 3.5% rule, and whether the research still holds 50:45 - The school drop-off apology problem: why we need a safe movement to belong to 53:40 - Hope vs fear: did the briefing get the balance right? Key takeawaysOver a third of Great Big Green Week attendees have never engaged with climate or nature before. They come because the event is organised by someone they know, connected to a community they're already part of, or simply free to do with the kids. Over 80% of those newcomers wanted to do more afterwards.Great Big Green Week has more than doubled in size every year for three years, and reached a media audience of over 60 million last year. Around 11% of the UK population recognises it when prompted, on a par with campaigns that have run for decades.Helen's core argument about power: if we say politicians are the only ones with power, we're handing ours to them. The Coalition's job is to make the public mandate visible so politicians have space to move into.The Coalition's three policy asks: climate finance flowing where it's most needed, fairness at the heart of climate action (bills, jobs, just transition), and the urgent protection and restoration of nature.Fear needs to be combined with agency. Helen cites the Branding Biodiversity report: hard-hitting information without a path to action paralyses people. Twenty-five years into her career, the People's Emergency Briefing still made her cry. Her response was to write a to-do list.Hope is an action, not a mood. Rebecca Solnit's framing: pessimists and optimists both excuse themselves from doing anything.Resources and links mentionedOrganisations and campaignsThe Climate Coalition: theclimatecoalition.orgGreat Big Green Week (6-14 June 2026): greatbiggreenweek.comNational Emergency Briefing / People's Emergency Briefing, including the screening map and how to host one: nebriefing.orgWilder Connections, Chloe's charity growing a movement for nature connection in young people: wilderconnections.charityClimate Psychology Alliance (facilitation training Chloe mentioned): climatepsychologyalliance.orgMore in Common (audience segmentation partner): moreincommon.org.ukBristol Stepping SistersNational Trust, RSPB, Oxfam, Save the Children, Co-op (Coalition members referenced)Ideas and referencesRebecca Solnit, Hope in the DarkJoanna Macy, Active Hope: activehope.infoBranding Biodiversity report (Futerra): fear combined with agencyThe 3.5% rule (Erica Chenoweth's research on nonviolent resistance)The People's Plan for Nature: peoplesplanfornature.orgCome and stay with usIf this conversation has you craving time somewhere slower, our off-grid cabins sit in a quiet corner of Monmouthshire surrounded by 80 acres of recovering nature.

La Corte Suprema israeliana ha scritto che obbligare un'organizzazione a consegnare l'elenco dei propri dipendenti palestinesi è una misura "limitata e proporzionata" che "consente la continuazione dell'attività umanitaria". Così ha respinto il ricorso di diciannove organizzazioni e convalidato la legge che dal 30 dicembre 2025 tiene fuori dai Territori trentasette ONG, tra cui Medici senza frontiere, Oxfam e Save the Children. Le organizzazioni si rifiutano di consegnare quell'elenco: espone i loro operatori, e centinaia di lavoratori umanitari sono già stati uccisi, quindici di MSF dall'ottobre 2023. Per la Corte quella lista protegge la sicurezza dello Stato. Per chi ci finisce sopra, è una condanna. Il 9 giugno diciotto Paesi europei, con Australia e Giappone, hanno chiesto a Israele di "non applicare la legge nella sua forma attuale", ricordando che quasi tutta Gaza dipende dall'assistenza. Una richiesta, mentre la legge è già convalidata. Lo stesso giorno il ministro degli Esteri Antonio Tajani rivendicava in Parlamento di aver aderito «proprio oggi» a quella dichiarazione, ed elencava il contributo italiano: 85 tonnellate di Food for Gaza sbloccate dalla Giordania, 17 studenti arrivati il 2 giugno. Aiuti che passano, ha spiegato, col «via libera» delle autorità israeliane. Due modelli di accesso a confronto: quello che pretende un obbligo e quello che ringrazia per un permesso. L'Italia firma il primo e pratica il secondo. E il conto intanto corre. Il ministero della Salute di Gaza all'8 giugno contava 72.980 morti dal 7 ottobre 2023, 970 dal cessate il fuoco di ottobre. A Bengasi i dieci volontari del Land Convoy, tra cui gli italiani Domenico Centrone e Leonarda Alberizia, sono da una settimana in sciopero della fame. "Consente la continuazione dell'attività umanitaria", ha scritto la Corte. Le organizzazioni che quell'attività la fanno restano fuori, e l'unico elenco che cresce è quello dei morti. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

De grootste bedrijven in Europa dragen bij aan ongelijkheid. Maar wat betekent dat? Al jaren lijkt de economische ongelijkheid in de samenleving toe te nemen. En volgens Oxfam Novib spelen grote bedrijven daarin een significante rol. Wie profiteert van de winsten die elk jaar gemaakt worden? En wie profiteert daar vooral niet van? En wat moet er veranderen om dit te verbeteren? Het nieuwe Oxfam-rapport 'People, Power, Profits, Planet: how Europe's largest companies are fuelling global inequality' brengt deze onderwerpen in kaart. En dat rapport presenteert Oxfam Novib vandaag voor het eerst bij ons! Te gast is Bram Joanknecht, expert economische gelijkheid bij Oxfam Novib.

In this episode of Walk Talk Listen, Maurice Bloem speaks with Patrick Watt, CEO of Christian Aid, about what it means to lead in a time where poverty, climate, and inequality are deeply intertwined. Patrick reflects on his journey from a rural upbringing in England to leading one of the world's most respected faith-based development organizations, sharing how his background in theology and development shaped a lifelong commitment to justice. Throughout the conversation, he emphasizes that real motivation comes not from abstract goals, but from encounters with communities, partners, and supporters who dedicate themselves to a purpose beyond their own lives. The discussion explores the evolving role of faith in development, the shifting landscape of institutional religion, and the growing importance of locally-led approaches. Patrick speaks candidly about the challenge of “letting go” of power as an organization, describing Christian Aid's role increasingly as a convener, connector, and catalyst. He also reflects on the role of prayer and perspective in sustaining leadership, and the importance of holding difference while working toward shared values of dignity, equality, and justice. Patrick Watt is the Chief Executive Officer for Christian Aid, leading the organization in its work to tackle poverty and promote dignity, equality, and justice. He works closely with the SLT and the Board of Trustees and engages staff, supporters, partners, and sponsoring churches to realize Christian Aid's vision. Patrick has widespread experience working in development and humanitarian organizations, including Oxfam, ActionAid, and Save the Children International, where he was the Advocacy and Campaigns Director. He holds degrees in Theology from the University of Cambridge and in Development Studies from the London School of Economics.

Alla libreria Rizzoli di Milano, il 4 maggio, Ignazio La Russa ha trovato le parole. Per la Flotilla: «manifestazioni strumentali e propagandistiche a scarso rischio e a molto ritorno mediatico». Per il sequestro in acque internazionali: «la fortuna che ti permette di gridare alla tortura». Matteo Piantedosi ha sottoscritto «pienamente». Presentavano il loro libro, Dalla parte delle divise. Nella Striscia di Gaza la produzione di pane è scesa del cinquanta per cento. I tagli a farina e diesel hanno ridotto la produzione da trecento a duecento tonnellate al giorno, ha dichiarato a The National Abdel Al Ajrami, dell'Associazione dei proprietari di panifici. Se il Programma alimentare mondiale riduce i finanziamenti, come previsto, il prezzo potrebbe triplicare. Mohammed Al Majdhoub ha avvertito: «Stiamo tornando verso la carestia». Non è un'ipotesi: l'IPC aveva certificato la carestia nel Governatorato di Gaza nell'agosto 2025 e quella fase era finita grazie al sistema che ora si smonta. La Russa ha chiesto quanti bambini siano rimasti in vita grazie alla Flotilla. Oxfam documenta come quello che la Corte internazionale di giustizia definisce genocidio abbia distrutto la capacità di Gaza di sfamarsi. I due ministri trovano le parole contro civili su barche; le perdono quando una marina militare abborda navi in acque europee, ferisce trentuno persone e trattiene attivisti nel carcere di Shikma senza accuse formali. Adalah ha documentato percosse fino alla perdita di conoscenza. Israele: «False e infondate affermazioni preparate in anticipo». La Global Sumud Flotilla si riorganizza a Creta con nuovi equipaggi da tutta Europa e una ventina di imbarcazioni dalla Turchia. «Ripartiremo e saremo ancora di più rispetto a quando siamo partiti dalla Sicilia», ha dichiarato uno degli attivisti. Dalla parte delle divise è una scelta. Anche quella di salpare lo è. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Widespread destruction by Israel of houses and civilian facilities in Lebanon, leaving a fifth of the population out of their homes. Israel's defence minister says tactics used in Gaza are being replicated in Lebanon. So, what are the similarities? In this episode: Ramzi Kaiss, Lebanon Researcher at Human Rights Watch.

Mercoledì sera, vicino alla moschea di Al-Qassam a Beit Lahia, nel nord della Striscia, un drone israeliano ha colpito un gruppo di civili. Cinque morti. Tre erano bambini. I corpi sono stati portati all'ospedale Al-Shifa di Gaza City. Ieri mattina, altri tre morti in un attacco a un'auto all'ingresso del campo profughi di Maghazi. Il Ministero della Salute di Gaza comunica: 6 morti e 18 feriti nelle ultime 24 ore. Il cessate il fuoco del 10 ottobre 2025 è formalmente in vigore. Da quella data sono stati uccisi più di 800 palestinesi. Cinque organizzazioni umanitarie internazionali — tra cui Oxfam e Save the Children — hanno scritto la settimana scorsa che il piano sta fallendo su tutti gli obiettivi dichiarati. Ormai sono aggiornamenti, non sono nemmeno più notizie. Che è peggio. Il governo italiano sa. Non è un sospetto: lo sa. Il deputato Marco Grimaldi (AVS) ha presentato un'interrogazione parlamentare al ministro degli Esteri Antonio Tajani (FI). Tajani ha risposto ammettendo che gli aiuti umanitari donati dagli italiani — raccolti da "Music for Peace", consegnati a "Food for Gaza" — sono fermi in Giordania. Non in transito: fermi. Il governo non li sblocca, non interviene, non pretende. Grimaldi lo ha detto ieri alla Camera: «La risposta a chi chiede perché la Flotilla riparte è nella complicità del nostro governo con quello di Israele». Oggi alle 10.00, la flotta salpa verso Gaza: oltre 50 imbarcazioni, circa 500 persone da decine di Paesi. Parte dall'Italia perché le istituzioni non fanno quello che cento barche di civili cercano di fare. Il portavoce ONU Stéphane Dujarric, interrogato sulle scuse di Netanyahu per la profanazione di una statua di Gesù e sul silenzio israeliano rispetto alle moschee rase al suolo a Gaza, ha risposto: «Lascio a te trarre i parallelismi o l'ironia». Era la frase più dura che un portavoce ONU potesse pronunciare. Un atto d'accusa nascosto dentro una domanda retorica. Oggi è la vigilia del 25 Aprile, la Liberazione. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

On today's show, we're chatting with Sue Poole, the founder of At Source Vintage. Sue's love for fashion started young – she remembers many bold fashion moments from her teens – wearing a turquoise pencil skirt with rainbow leggings, buying her first designer piece, shopping the charity shops in London. In 2020, Sue made a decision that changed everything: she stopped buying new clothes completely. What started as participating in Oxfam's Secondhand September challenge – where she committed to only wearing the secondhand pieces already in her wardrobe – turned into a permanent lifestyle shift. Four years later, she hasn't bought a single new item. This commitment didn't just change how Sue shops – it revolutionized her entire relationship with fashion. She went from following trends and scrolling through brand algorithms to becoming a vintage expert who tracks down 1970s YSL toweling caftans, collects Celine blouses, and once scored an '80s Hermès velour lounge suit on eBay for £18. In 2022, she launched her own curated vintage business, At Source Vintage, and since Sue's been featured in British Vogue, she showcases at London vintage fairs, and her Instagram is a masterclass in styling vintage pieces in ways that make them feel completely contemporary. We talk about the styling challenge that started it all for her, and how secondhand shopping is actually about right-sizing our relationship with clothing – finding your style through vintage, breaking free from consumption cycles, and proving that you don't need to buy new clothes to dress incredibly well. It's a fun one, so let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [3:27] Sue's always been a fashion-lover, and shares her early style memories. [6:38] Her earliest secondhand experiences and London's vintage scene [9:46] Why she took Oxfam's Secondhand September Challenge in 2020.

Zdravo. Tokrat začnemo s klubom 3000 milijarderjev, svetovnimi valutami in občutkom, da nas kuhajo počasi, kot žabo. Vmes obdelamo obcestne politične plakate, naredimo plan za napad na Ciper in nacionalizacijo njihovih bank, ker te stvari že znamo. Preden se vrnemo h gorilam iz 3. poglavja, Helmutu in Kurtu, mačetám in tipom gozda, slišimo tudi Pelijevo izpoved o ljubezni do Excela - orodja, ki ga je izpopolnil predvsem v oziru kalkulacij količin tvarin za dober žur. Nato pridemo do prve sledi goril (njihovo posteljo), skupaj z znanstveno razlago, kje in zakaj gorile puščajo, kar pač puščajo.
This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, and NHK Japan. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr260123.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Starting with 3 press reviews about the WEF held in Davos Switzerland, clearly the biggest international news item. Trump's words, insults, and threats, followed by his slight retraction on Greenland, has clearly damaged the relationship between the US and Europe. Trump was ridiculed in much of the press, not unlike his ridicule of other world leaders. Press on the Israeli crackdown on the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, including bulldozing the UN buildings in occupied Palestine. Oxfam released its annual report on wealth and poverty on Monday, pointing out that billionaires are accelerating the inequality gap. From GERMANY- Trump presented his proposed Board of Peace in Davos. It was to be a way to fix the crisis in destroyed Gaza, but has become what many suggest is an attempt at replacing the United Nations. He invited dozens of countries to sit on the board, which he is the lifetime chairman of the board, and Europe is by and large repulsed by it. An interview with Heba Aly, journalist and director of the United Nations Reform Coalition. She has worked for years to redirect the UN into becoming more effective at achieving its goals. From CUBA- Venezuelans continue to denounce the US invasion and kidnapping of President Maduro and his wife.

Nach Daten des EU-Klimadienstes Copernicus lag die Durchschnittstemperatur nur minimal unter den Werten für die Rekordjahre 2023 und 2024. Mit dem weiteren heißen Jahr rückt die 1,5-Grad-Grenze gefährlich nahe. 05:39 Schäden durch Naturkatastrophen Naturkatastrophen verursachten 2025 weltweit Schäden von 224 Milliarden US-Dollar. Das vergangene Jahr war geprägt von Schwankungen mit sehr verlustreichen Abschnitten und ruhigen Phasen. Dass die Bilanz nicht noch höher ausfiel, war laut dem Rückversicherer Munich Re vor allem Glück. Zugleich häuften sich regelmäßig auftretende Extremereignisse wie Waldbrände, Hurrikans und Überschwemmungen. 12:11 Superreiche mit extremem CO2‑Ausstoß Das reichste Prozent der Weltbevölkerung hat rechnerisch schon am 10.

Mientras se espera la segunda fase del plan de paz en Gaza, impulsado por el mandatario estadounidense Donald Trump, la situación humanitaria en el enclave sigue siendo catastrófica, alertan las ONG´s. Hay escasez de comida, enfermedades y muertes ligadas a ataques y al invierno, además de la preocupación por la posible partida de 37 organizaciones humanitarias. En octubre pasado inició la tregua en Gaza, pero una verdadera paz aún se ve lejana y las necesidades de la población de alimentos, vivienda digna o atención médica no dan espera, confirman diferentes organizaciones como Médicos Sin Fronteras (MSF) y Oxfam. Esta semana Unicef informó que, desde el inicio de la tregua, al menos 100 niños han muerto en ataques aéreos y actos de violencia en la Franja y el New York Times publicó que también en este periodo Israel ha demolido más de 2.500 edificios en el enclave, complicando aún más el acceso a una vivienda digna para la población, pues muchos se encuentran bajo tiendas de campaña. Las muertes en Gaza continúan y a ello se suman los fallecimientos por hipotermia o enfermedades ligadas a un invierno bajo condiciones catastróficas, cuenta Claire Nicolet, Coordinadora de urgencias de Médicos Sin Fronteras en Gaza. “Todos los días, sigue habiendo muertos en Gaza, ya sea porque la gente se acerca a la zona controlada por el ejército israelí o por los ataques que siguen produciéndose en zonas que normalmente deberían ser seguras. Lamentablemente, siguen produciéndose ataques a ese nivel”, agregó Nicolet. El invierno y las malas condiciones de vivienda también han generado fallecimientos. “Hemos tenido casos de hipotermia entre los niños y también hemos tenido esos famosos edificios que se derrumban sobre la gente. Así que digamos que, aún hoy, seguimos viendo muertes relacionadas con toda esta situación que vemos en Gaza. Por desgracia, todos los días seguimos oyendo bombardeos, demoliciones de edificios y aún no hemos llegado a algo que se pueda llamar realmente paz”, señaló. El trabajo de las ONG's no es suficiente para cubrir las necesidades del enclave, cuenta la trabajadora humanitaria y esto podría agravarse con la decisión de Israel de prohibir el acceso a 37 ONG. El Estado hebreo argumenta que es una respuesta por no comunicar los nombres de sus empleados, pero las organizaciones temen por la seguridad de sus miembros. Por su parte, la comunidad internacional se muestra preocupada por una escalada de la crisis humanitaria que ya es catastrófica, pues explican que sería muy difícil crear rápidamente una alternativa que pueda cubrir el trabajo que ya se está haciendo y que es precario. “Hoy en día, como Médicos Sin Fronteras, contamos con más de 20 centros de salud a los que prestamos apoyo y 5 hospitales. En la actualidad, no hay nadie capaz de sustituirnos con un volumen de trabajo tan grande. Contamos con más de 1.000 empleados nacionales, por lo que el volumen de actividad es enorme. También somos el segundo distribuidor de agua en la Franja de Gaza. Si hoy tuviéramos que dejar de trabajar, no habría ninguna solución alternativa”, aseguró. Además de la presencia física, están las especialidades que aporta cada organización. “En el caso de MSF, somos especialistas en determinadas patologías o enfermedades, como por ejemplo las quemaduras. No habría ninguna solución alternativa, porque no habría ninguna organización que pueda venir de repente a sustituir el volumen de actividad que estamos realizando como Médicos Sin Fronteras”, agregó Nicolet. Varios países entre los que se encuentran los de la Unión Europea, que enviaron una declaración conjunta, insisten a Israel en dar marcha atrás en su decisión de sacar a estas 37 organizaciones, pero de momento la presión no parece dar resultados.
On January 1, 2026, Israel banned 37 international humanitarian aid organizations from operating in Gaza. Among those affected were Doctors Without Borders, Save the Children, Oxfam, Caritas, ActionAid, the International Rescue Committee, and World Vision. Bushra Khalidi, Oxfam's policy lead in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, explains the underlying reasons behind Israel's ban and its impact on Gaza's population.
