What happens to a person when the country they were born in decides they were never really from there?What does a play about the women of a sacked city, written 2,400 years ago, have to say to an actress walking out of Syria on foot?And how do you stand on a stage in Edinburgh and make an audience laugh about the worst thing that ever happened to you?At the Edinburgh Fringe, Peter Frankopan meets Arwa Omaren, whose one-woman show sets her own escape from Syria inside the story of Hecuba, Queen of Troy — along with William Stirling and Charlotte Eagar, who have spent a decade staging Euripides with refugees.Arwa Omaren found out she was a refugee at twelve, in a playground fight in Damascus. She graduated top of her class from Syria's leading drama school in 2011, signed a television contract, and then the war took all of it. She walked for five weeks through the mountains of Kurdistan. Britain granted her asylum, then she was evicted, and she slept on the street with her dog. Hecuba: Why Am I In Your Country? is what she made of it. Euripides wrote the first play about refugees in 415 BC, the year after Athens massacred the people of Melos. Twenty-four centuries later it is still the play that fits.Hecuba: Why Am I In Your Country? runs at the Gilded Balloon Teviot, Edinburgh Fringe, until 31 August: edfringe.comMore on the Trojan Women Project: trojanwomenproject.orgPeter has written about the play at peterfrankopan.substack.comJoin Legacy Plus for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fm[0:00] Peter at the Fringe, and a performance he could not stop thinking about[3:23] Oxfam, 2013, and the Greek tragedy that turned out to be about refugees[9:50] Who Hecuba is, and why a queen reduced to nothing is the right story for now[16:18] A playground fight in Damascus, and the day Arwa found out she was a refugee[17:24] Five weeks walking, and the paperwork that told her she belonged nowhere[33:13] Jacko: the dog she left behind in Syria, and the charity that brought him backStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas:Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.comJoin Legacy+ for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fmStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas: Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

Ed Fringe 2011 #14 - The Oxfam of Comedy - What's that unusual atmosphere in the air today? Could it be genuine reverence. Rich is joined by one of his absolute comedy heroes, Barry Cryer and is trying to be on his best behaviour. Barry's butterfly brain means he has a story about everyone and everything that gets mentioned from Nicholas Parsons to Stewart Lee and Jack Benny to Richard Pryor. He also comes up with the best answer yet to the Keith Allen Question (as it is known in parliament). So just sit back and listen to a comedy legend (which is pretty much that all Rich does in this episode) and find out who's really the king of Edinburgh. Rich has also just been offered an advert where he'd have to live in a perspex box for three days (he may not take it). What a lovely way to spend the afternoon.See RHLSTP on tour http://richardherring.com/rhlstpt/tourSUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.

Dan Woodger — freelance illustrator, animation director, and returning Daring Forever guest — joins Radim to unpack Run London Draw London, the project he built alongside training for this year's London Marathon. ~Starting from a blank canvas in January, Dan invited people to donate £5 to add a hand-drawn character to a sprawling crowd-scene illustration of the marathon route, turning strangers, club runners, and eventually Paula Radcliffe, pro athletes, and podcast hosts into part of the artwork. The conversation ranges across the collision of running and illustration, the frustration of NDA'd client work going unseen, the highs and lows of a data-obsessed relationship with Strava, and the sheer force of just asking for what you want. It closes on marathon day itself — cramp, crowd energy, and a mid-race bottle of water from Mo Farah — and on what comes next for the project.TakeawaysThe project raised over £5,000 for Oxfam, well past the initial £2,000 target, entirely self-funded and self-runDan built the crowd scene in public on Instagram, showing the process rather than only the finished piece, as a deliberate response to AI in the industryTwo hundred characters were needed to fill the scene — a number he set himself before a single donation came inGetting Paula Radcliffe, Mo Farah, pro athlete Julia Paternain, and the Ellis James and John Robins podcast involved all came from cold, slightly odd, direct asksFrustration with NDA'd client work — and the resulting quiet in his inbox — was part of what pushed him to make something fully his ownRunning and illustration turned out to share the same trap: comparing your own work-in-progress to everyone else's highlight reelOn race day, cramp hit from 30K onward, but the crowd — and strangers recognising their own drawn characters — carried him throughHe's already thinking about a second edition, ideally with a brand or sponsor covering the printing and shipping costs he covered out of pocket this time Daring Creativity.

Fünf der größten Ölkonzerne weltweit könnten jede vierte Hitzewelle zwischen 2000 und 2023 mitverursacht haben. Die Nichtregierungsorganisation Oxfam fordert deshalb eine Übergewinnsteuer dieser Konzerne. Die Einnahmen könnten dann auch für die Energiewende eingesetzt werden (Janina Schreiber)
Le ricostruzioni di Gaza dopo le offensive del 2008-09, del 2014 e del 2021 sono costate insieme dieci miliardi di dollari a valori attuali. Il conto della quarta, presentato il 23 luglio da Oxfam con il Palestine Economic Policy Research Institute e il Palestine Trade Centre, è di 71,4 miliardi in dieci anni. Sette volte le tre precedenti sommate. Quel salto misura vent'anni di ricostruzioni impedite. Ogni piano è rimasto soffocato dal blocco e dall'offensiva successiva, arrivata prima della fine dei lavori. Chi aspettava di rientrare in casa dopo il 2014 non ci è mai tornato: quelle case sono andate in cenere nel 2023. Il rapporto, costruito su stime di Nazioni Unite, Unione europea e Banca mondiale, calcola 57,9 miliardi di danni e perdite e stima lo sviluppo umano arretrato di 77 anni in meno di tre. Prima che apra un cantiere vanno rimossi 66 milioni di tonnellate di macerie. Lo stesso giorno l'IPC ha diffuso la nuova analisi alimentare, rilanciata da FAO, UNICEF e Programma alimentare mondiale. Il titolo che ha fatto il giro del mondo dice che la carestia è finita. Le pagine sotto contano 1,4 milioni di persone in crisi alimentare o peggio, il 67% della popolazione, e 74 mila bambini che entro l'aprile 2027 avranno bisogno di cure per malnutrizione acuta. Il programma che li nutre non raggiunge tutti e i fondi finiscono. Un solo valico aperto, Kerem Shalom. Oltre il 70% dei terreni agricoli resta inaccessibile, e il documento precisa che lo è a prescindere dai danni. Utilizzabile il 3%. Il mare resta vietato. Quanto si mangia a Gaza e quanto costerà rialzarla dipendono dalla stessa variabile: il permesso. Nel settembre 2025 la Commissione internazionale indipendente d'inchiesta delle Nazioni Unite ha concluso che Israele ha commesso un genocidio. Paolo Pezzati, portavoce per le crisi umanitarie di Oxfam Italia, nomina gli Stati che hanno armato o coperto quella distruzione, Italia compresa: «devono contribuire alla riparazione dei danni». #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.
Andy BurnhamAs I conclude this column on Monday afternoon Andy Burnham is taking up his position as British Prime Minister. As I dispatch these lines he is addressing the media and supporters outside 10 Downing Street. I wish him well. I also hope he will be the last British Prime Minister to interfere in Irish affairs. Our ambition is for the people of Ireland to govern ourselves. As soon as possible. When that happens we will govern Ireland in the interests of Ireland. Mr Burnham, like every British PM governs in the interests of the English establishment. He like his predecessors is a Unionist. Let's work to ensure that he is the Prime Minister who ends the Union.‘Women's Voices, Hopes for a New Ireland'Féile an Phobail is the launch pad each year of exiting new projects, and especially new books. One such book this year is ‘Women's Voices, Hopes for a New Ireland.' The book is published by Sinn Féin's Commission on the Future of Ireland and will launched at 1pm on 4th August in Áras Uí Chonghaile by Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald TD.The book is compiled and edited by Grace McDermott and Aoife Ferguson and is an innovative collection of contributions from 62 women across Ireland and the diaspora sharing their hopes for the future and a new Ireland.The women are drawn from all sections of society. They are writers, actors, musicians, community workers, political activists, health workers. They include Protestant voices. This book is a mixture of written contributions, poetry, song lyrics and artwork. They reflect the experiences of these women to partition and a society that has often held them down, treated them as second-class citizens and pushed them to the margins of history.The book is being launched at this years' Féile an Phobail. The launch will be ion 4th August in Áras Uí Chonghaile on 4 August. You can register to attend here: Women's Voices- Hopes for a New Ireland Tickets, Tuesday, August 4 • 1 PM - 2 PM | EventbriteIt will also be launched at the Derry Féile on the 12 August in Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin, 37 Great James Street Derry BT48 7DF at 2pm and other events are being planned.It will be available from An Fhuiseog 55 Bóthar na bhFál, BT12 4PD, https://anfhuiseog.ie/And https://sinnfeinbookshop.com/Water Crisis in GazaImagine in the midst of this very hot, and dry weather you did not have access to fresh drinking water. Could not have a shower or bath. Wash clothes. Prepare food. Make tea or coffee whenever you want. Fill a water container for storage in the fridge for a cold drink. Have a fridge?That is the reality of life for almost two million women and children and men living in the Gaza Strip. Israel's genocidal policies has resulted in the deliberate and targeted destruction of water, sanitation and hygiene systems (in Gaza. It has created a humanitarian catastrophe. This is especially true for women who are pregnant or are menstruating. According to a recent Oxfam report, women cannot get the water they need to keep clean and hydrated.It reports that the extensive damage to water networks, treatment facilities, and sewage systems “has crushed water production, so it is a fraction of pre-October 2023 levels.” In addition, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has revealed that Gaza's water production has dropped to less than a quarter of what it was three years ago and that 89% of water plants and sewage facilities “have been destroyed or partially damaged.”For a family in the west it's a simple matter to turn the water tap on to access all you need. In Gaza average daily use of water per person has dropped from the minimum humanitarian standard of 15 litres per day to around three litres.Rubber Bullet injures Marwan BarghoutiRegular readers will know that I have written recently on several occasions about the imprisonment and torture of Palestinian prisoner Marwan Barghouti. Marwan, now aged 67, has been held in Israeli prisons for 24 years after a widely criticised show trial in 2002. He is a senior leader in Fatah and is viewed by Palestinians as their Nelson Mandela.Over the years he has endured significant brutality but the most recent occurred in Ganot prison several weeks ago when a prison guard entered his cell and shot him in the leg with a rubber bullet. During the decades of conflict in the North rubber and plastic bullets were frequently used by the RUC and British Army. They were an attempt to terrorise citizens. Seventeen people were killed by rubber and plastic bullets. Eight of these were children and all but one was from nationalist areas.However, the Israeli rubber bullets are of a significantly different design to those used here. Israel's rubber bullets are “steel covered with a thin rubber coat.” They cause more fatalities and life changing injuries.Marwan's son Arab Barghouti, said the family only learned about the incident from his father's lawyer and that Barghouti had not received medical treatment for the injury. Two weeks ago the Arab League called for an international commission of inquiry into what it said were "repeated assaults" on Barghouti. So support freedom for Marwan Barghouti. Log on to https://freemarwan.org/Methodism and the Peace Process‘From Feakle to the Falls and Derry's Wall - Methodism and the Peace Process, 1985-2025 by David Gallagher is an important book and a significant contribution to the discussion on peace-making in Ireland.David has been a member of the Methodist Church in Ireland's Council on Social Responsibility since 1986. He was the Northern Executive's Lay Secretary from 1990 to 2003. His book is a detailed and critical assessment of the role of Methodism and I'm still reading it.I have a firm belief that all of us have a story to tell. My personal focus has been on republicans and working class people telling our story but the truth is the right and the need to tell our own story belongs to everyone. And the Methodists have a story worth telling. So well done David Gallagher.David will be taking part in Féile an Phobail on 1pm on the 31st July in St. Mary's University College on the Falls Road. The book is available at An Fhuiseog 55 Bóthar na bhFál, BT12 4PD, https://anfhuiseog.ie/

Fighting between Israel and Hezbollah reignited in the days following Israel and the U.S. launching joint strikes on Iran earlier this year. In June, Israel and Lebanon reached a ceasefire agreement that Hezbollah ultimately rejected. This month, the memorandum of understanding between the U.S. and Iran effectively disintegrated, and there are fears that fighting in Lebanon between Israel and Hezbollah will pick back up. The Lebanese president is expected to meet with Trump and other officials this week in Washington to reportedly talk about not only a stronger ceasefire, but Israel withdrawing troops from southern Lebanon. According to the UN, more than 3,500 people have been killed, thousands more have been injured, and approximately 1 million people have been displaced in Lebanon because of the conflict. President and CEO of Oxfam America Abby Maxman joined Brittany Lewis on "Forbes Newsroom" to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Lebanon. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Nigeria is the world's poverty capital. But while acknowledging this poverty, rarely do we in the same breadth discuss the other toxic byproduct of Nigerian capitalism: billionaires. The 2025 Oxfam report indicates a surge in billionaire wealth in Nigeria. In this episode, we examine a few of the figures with the largest chunks of the pie.The first part of the episode explores the origins of our most notable oligarchs. Naturally, some of the names that arise include Aliko Dangote, Mike Adenuga, Femi Otedola and Abdulsamad Rabiu — but also the lesser remembered but extremely influential man who set the tone for all of the above (listen to find out whom). Can the scales be rebalanced? Are the people resisting them sufficiently?The second part of the episode zooms in on another previously unknown but increasingly prominent billionaire businessman: Gilbert Chagoury. We run through the infamous relationship between Chagoury and Abacha and Chagoury's centrality from the late 90s to the foundations of Nigeria neoliberal democracy up till the present day.We look at the influence of billionaires in Nigerian politics, the foreign networks, and handshakes-past-the-elbow that strengthen the bases of decrepit government institutions. Who is your favorite Nigerian billionaire? Tell us yours in the comments and find out ours in this episode!
In this episode of Policy Pod, Nawaz Khan and Cristian Iftodii sit down with Kevin Watkins, visiting professor at LSE's Firoz Lalji Institute for Africa and former chief executive of Save the Children UK. Having spent three decades moving through Oxfam, the United Nations, the Overseas Development Institute, and the top of the international aid sector, Kevin Watkins has become one of its sharpest internal critics, unafraid to challenge the assumptions his own field runs on. Together, they explore the unravelling of UK aid as budgets shrink and priorities tilt toward bilateral spending, the flaws he sees in the "growth first" consensus that now dominates development policy, and what years leading UNDP's Human Development Report and UNESCO's Global Education Monitoring Report taught him about the numbers that actually move governments to act.Kevin Watkins also reflects on where the aid sector has lost its way, and what a serious reset of development policy would need to look like.
A igualdade nos Estados Unidos, tal como preconizada pelos pais fundadores há 250 anos, é cada vez mais uma miragem. A proximidade dos mais ricos com a actual administração e decisões de precedentes administrações leva a que as assimetrias estejam a colocar em risco o funcionamento da democracia no país. Os Estados Unidos festejaram este fim-de-semana os 250 anos da sua independência, numa festa com pompa e circunstância assegurada por Donald Trump, mas perturbada desde logo pelas condições meteorológicas, mas também micro-escândalos como a ingerência do Presidente no Mundial de Futebol e as ameaças iranianas durante as cerimónias funerárias de Ali Khamenei, em plenas negociações de paz. Nos discursos oficiais, Donald Trump afirmou que os norte-americanos devem estar "mais orgulhosos que nunca" com os feitos do país, mas não mencionou as desigualdades e assimetrias vividas na prática entre estados, mas também entre zonas rurais e urbanas ou até mesmo entre bairros vizinhos, tendo em conta a cor da pele dos habitantes. Nos Estados Unidos, a classe mais rica possui 71 vezes mais riqueza que a classe média, com a Oxfam a estimar que há actualmente quase 44 milhões de norte-americanos pobres, entre eles quase 10 milhões de crianças, um dos números mais elevados nos países da OCDE. Ao mesmo tempo, há quase 24 milhões de milionários nos Estados Unidos. João Pedro Ferreira, economista e director de Economia e Políticas Públicas do Centro Weldon Cooper, da Universidade da Virgínia, nos Estados Unidos, explicou em entrevista à RFI que os Estados Unidos são, desde o início, uma manta de retalhos e que muitas garantias da Constituição, que visam desde a fundação a coesão no país, estão hoje em perigo. "Quem está de fora tem muita ideia de uma construção, de uma América que é coerente, que quer dizer qualquer coisa. Mas de facto, quando chegamos aos Estados Unidos e num quadro em que hoje estamos ainda mais despertos para as diferenças culturais e identitárias que existem, então os Estados Unidos parecem, de facto, uma manta de retalhos. Os pais da Constituição perceberam exactamente isso e fizeram uma Constituição - que importa lembrar que na altura foi de facto revolucionária, mesmo se hoje podemos levantar muitas questões sobre a forma como funciona a democracia americana - que era uma Constituição que tinha separação de poderes e um conjunto de coisas a que nós nos Estados Unidos chamamos de 'checks and balances'. E é basicamente para garantir que há quase uma vigilância entre os diferentes níveis da organização do Estado e do poder. E isso hoje está-se a perder. [...] E é importante também reconhecer que a democracia americana está a atravessar uma crise porque, de alguma forma, pela primeira vez, estes checks and balances e estes equilíbrios não estão a ser vistos e não estão a ser seguidos em muitos casos", explicou o economista. De 13 colónias iniciais que se revoltaram para criar um país, os Estados Unidos passaram a hoje 51 Estados e alguns sem continuidade territorial como o Havai ou o Alasca, mas mesmo em estados vizinhos, as realidades podem ser muito diferentes, como explica João Pedro Ferreira. "Os Estados Unidos são de facto uma construção muito complexa, onde as zonas urbanas e zonas rurais são completamente distintas, onde os níveis de pobreza nas zonas rurais são altíssimos, mas o nível de segregação das zonas urbanas também é relativamente importante. Que há zonas dos Estados Unidos, por exemplo, que se fossem um país, seriam dos países mais ricos do mundo, com um PIB superior ao do Luxemburgo, à Suíça, e há zonas dos Estados Unidos que, se fossem um país, teriam um PIB inferior ao da Albânia. Não é, de facto, um país homogéneo. E é importante reconhecer isso", detalhou. Desde o regresso ao poder de Donald Trump, mas também em anteriores administrações nas últimas décadas, os mais ricos encontram-se cada vez mais próximos da esfera do poder e, muitos deles, ocupam mesmo lugares de destaque como representantes dos Estados Unidos. Trump conta com 12 bilionários, entre eles Howard Lutnick, secretário do Comércio, com uma fortuna estimada de 3,2 mil milhões de dólares e que construiu a sua fortuna a partir de serviços financeiros, ou ainda Linda McMahon, secretária da Educação e mulher de Vince McMahon, que detém a WWE, uma organização de wrestling com difusão em todo o Mundo e que está avaliada em três mil milhões de dólares. Para além de uma classe privilegiada, estes multimilionários têm hoje acesso ao poder legislativo e a instâncias de decisão que desequilibram ainda mais a balança entre os pobres e os muito ricos nos Estados Unidos, colocando a democracia em risco. "Quando se tem um sistema económico que, por exemplo, nos últimos anos tem privilegiado os 1% mais ricos e os 99% restantes estão cada vez mais pobres, não se pode ter uma democracia na prática, porque isso significa que há pessoas que têm o poder de fazer coisas que estão muito acima do que o resto do comum dos mortais pode fazer. Isso tornou-se mais evidente com esta última administração federal, com esta administração Trump, com um conjunto de oligarcas que têm acesso privilegiado a leis e à ausência de regulação. E isso distorce a democracia, porque a democracia foi feita para o povo, para a maioria. E está claramente em causa agora. Por exemplo, quando olhamos para os dados da segregação racial e da pobreza, percebemos que há comunidades inteiras com determinado tipo de identidade, que são as que mais sofrem com as questões da pobreza. E percebemos que ela não está igualmente distribuída entre as zonas rurais e as zonas urbanas. Percebemos que não está igualmente distribuída entre brancos, afro-americanos ou asiáticos, por exemplo. Percebemos que há desequilíbrios importantes e é importante que a democracia formal continue a funcionar para permitir resolver estes desequilíbrios. Neste momento não está a funcionar", concluiu João Pedro Ferreira.

VOV1 - Mục tiêu tăng trưởng kinh tế ở mức hai con số không đơn thuần là câu chuyện theo hướng gia tăng sản lượng hay mở rộng quy mô đầu tư. Tăng trưởng hai con số đặt ra yêu cầu về một nền kinh tế có năng suất cao hơn, hiệu quả hơn và bền vững hơn.Trong bối cảnh toàn cầu hóa sâu rộng, cạnh tranh mạnh mẽ, chuyển đổi xanh và phát triển bền vững, năng lực, sự phát triển của doanh nghiệp không chỉ được đo ở giá thành, chất lượng sản phẩm hay công nghệ hiện đại mà còn phải đáp ứng các tiêu chuẩn khắt khe khác của thị trường, đặc biệt là thị trường xuất khẩu về khả năng duy trì chuỗi cung ứng bền vững, bằng chất lượng môi trường làm việc, bằng trách nhiệm xã hội và đặc biệt là bằng việc bảo đảm an toàn, vệ sinh lao động cho người lao động.Tuy nhiên, thực tế cho thấy, trong nhận thức của không ít doanh nghiệp, đầu tư cho an toàn vệ sinh lao động thường được xem là một khoản chi phí phát sinh, làm giảm lợi nhuận. Để giúp doanh nghiệp thay đổi nhận thức, xem việc đầu tư cho an toàn lao vệ sinh lao động là khoản đầu tư có lợi, tạo thế mạnh giúp doanh nghiệp phát triển bền vững, tiếp cận thuận lợi hơn với thị trường xuất khẩu, tổ chức Oxfam tại Việt Nam phối hợp với Liên đoàn Thương mại và Công nghiệp Việt Nam Chi nhánh TP. Hồ Chí Minh thực hiện dự án “Cải thiện khả năng tiếp cận thị trường quốc tế của doanh nghiệp tôm và lúa thông qua nâng cao kỹ năng làm việc và an toàn vệ sinh lao động tại doanh nghiệp” tại một số tỉnh, thành phố trên cả nước. Đây là hợp phần nằm trong Dự án An sinh xã hội do Tổng vụ Hợp tác Phát triển Bỉ tài trợ. Bà Bùi Thị Ninh, Phó giám đốc Liên đoàn thương mại và công nghiệp Việt Nam - Chi nhánh khu vực Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh cho biết thông qua việc thực hiện dự án là cơ sở thực tiễn để Liên đoàn thương mại và công nghiệp Việt Nam có những khuyến nghị, góp ý xây dựng dự thảo luật an toàn vệ sinh lao động sửa đổi.Theo Nghị quyết điều chỉnh Chương trình lập pháp năm 2026 vừa được Chủ tịch Quốc hội Trần Thanh Mẫn ký ban hành mới đây, dự thảo luật an toàn, vệ sinh lao động sửa đổi sẽ được trình Quốc hội cho ý kiến và dự kiến thông qua tại kỳ họp Hai sẽ diễn ra vào tháng 10/2026. Dự thảo được xây dựng theo hướng hoàn thiện cơ chế quản lý nhà nước về an toàn, vệ sinh lao động; cơ chế phòng ngừa tai nạn lao động, bệnh nghề nghiệp và nâng cao hiệu quả kiểm soát các yếu tố nguy hiểm, yếu tố có hại tại nơi làm việc trong bối cảnh chuyển đổi số; hoàn thiện quy định về đối tượng tham gia và chế độ bảo hiểm tai nạn lao động, bệnh nghề nghiệp và các quy định về hoạt động huấn luyện an toàn, vệ sinh lao động, kiểm định kỹ thuật an toàn lao động và quan trắc môi trường lao động./.
La deuxième canicule de l'année n'est pas encore terminée, loin de là, avec 72 départements demain en vigilance rouge… Mais il faut déjà se projeter vers la 3ème… C'est ce que nous disait ce matin la ministre de la transition écologique, citant des données de Météo France, qui laissent penser qu'après une pause relative la semaine prochaine, une nouvelle vague de chaleur devrait toucher la France jusqu'au 14 juillet… Une perspective insupportable pour un grand nombre de Français même s'il y a en réalité dans cette affaire plusieurs catégories de Français… Il y a ceux qui ont la clim' (nous en débattions hier soir), ceux qui habitent des logements bien isolés et ceux qui vivent dans ce qu'on appelle des passoires thermiques, qui se transforment quand les températures explosent, en bouilloires thermiques… Nous allons en débattre ce mercredi 24 juin avec : - Vincent Jeanbrun, Ministre de la Ville et du Logement- Lucile Schmid, Co-fondatrice et Présidente du think tank « La Fabrique écologique », auteur du livre Urgence politique, nécessité écologique (Puf, mars 2026)- Alexandre Florentin, Ingénieur, ancien élu écologiste au Conseil de Paris, Expert de l'adaptation au changement climatique- Selma Huart, Chargé de plaidoyer Inégalités Climatiques chez OXFAM- Tarek Daher, Délégué général de Emmaüs France
Send us Fan MailIf you're a parent, a leader, or anyone navigating the tension between responsibility and authenticity, this conversation speaks directly to you.This week on The UpLevel Podcast, Luke Partridge, a seasoned talent acquisition leader with more than 20 years of executive search experience across the UK, Europe, Australia/New Zealand, and Asia, brings forward one of the most human leadership challenges there is: how to show up with integrity, collaboration, and authenticity while parenting three teenagers through constant shifts in family dynamics.Together with Christie Mann, Luke explores his core values of accountability, empathy, and authenticity, the three that form what he calls his "North Star of Fatherhood." Through perspective work and deep reflection, Luke moves from thinking about these values to genuinely experiencing them, and he discovers that vulnerability and transparency are real sources of strength.This episode embodies the season's theme of stewardship: what it means to model values rather than simply teach them, to create the conditions for others to thrive, and to lead from a place of integrity even in the most pressurized moments.Listen in as Luke finds that being a work in progress, admitting what you don't know, and honoring your values when it's hard is exactly what the people who trust us most need from us.In this episode, we'll explore:Fatherhood as a leadership practiceAccountability, authenticity, and empathyCreating a healthy family cultureHow vulnerability builds trustThe connection between parenting and leadershipModeling values through everyday actionsA practical reflection practice for staying groundedWhat it means to steward the next generationAbout Luke:Luke Partridge is a seasoned talent acquisition leader with over 20 years of executive search experience across the UK, Europe, Australia/New Zealand, and Asia.

In dieser Folge von UN-Hörbar Nachhaltigkeit sprechen wir mit Jan Kowalzig von Oxfam über das SDG 13: Maßnahmen zum Klimaschutz (SDG 13). Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, warum die Klimakrise nicht nur eine ökologische, sondern vor allem eine globale Gerechtigkeitskrise ist. Im Gespräch geht es um Verantwortung, Klimafinanzierung und die Machtverhältnisse in internationalen Klimaverhandlungen. Außerdem sprechen wir darüber, warum Klimaschutz oft als Belastung dargestellt wird, welche Interessen den Ausstieg aus fossilen Energien bremsen und weshalb reiche Länder stärker in die Pflicht genommen werden müssen.InhaltWarum Klima eine Gerechtigkeitsfrage ist (02:30)Was Oxfam zu Klimapolitik und globaler Ungleichheit macht (07:00)Wer die Klimakrise verursacht – und wer besonders betroffen ist (09:50)Warum Klimaschutz politisch unter Druck geraten ist (17:50)Mythen und Missverständnisse über Klimaschutz (23:00)UN-Klimaverhandlungen und ihre Grenzen (29:20)Was sich sofort ändern müsste (41:20)Weiterführende LinksOxfam, Klima und Klimagerechtigkeit: https://www.oxfam.de/themen/klimakrise-klimagerechtigkeit UNFCCC, Das Pariser Klimaabkommen: https://unfccc.int/process-and-meetings/the-paris-agreement Oxfam, Pressemitteilung zu UNFCCC-Vorverhandlungen: https://www.oxfam.de/presse/pressemitteilungen/2026-06-03-90-prozent-finanzierungsluecke-thema-bonner-klima-gespraeche Moderation: Sophie FasshauerRedaktion: Leonardo Pereira und der DGVN-Arbeitskreis Nachhaltigkeit und KlimagerechtigkeitPostproduktion: Erwin Eisenhardt

On June 12, 2026, history was made. Following the highly anticipated initial public offering (IPO) of SpaceX—the largest IPO in stock market history—Elon Musk has officially become the world's first-ever trillionaire. With SpaceX shares soaring on the Nasdaq, Musk's combined stake in his aerospace empire and Tesla has pushed his net worth across the once-unfathomable $1 trillion threshold. In this episode, we break down exactly how this historic milestone was reached. We look past the headlines to examine the financial mechanics behind the SpaceX listing, which raised $75 billion and valued the company at nearly $1.8 trillion. We discuss how Musk's "on-paper" wealth is tied to his ambitious goals of colonizing Mars, launching massive satellite networks, and pioneering space-based AI data centers. Key discussion points include:The SpaceX IPO: Why now? We analyze the strategic timing of the launch and what it means for space exploration funding. The Path to $1 Trillion: How Musk's holdings in Tesla and SpaceX converged to create unprecedented levels of private wealth. Economic & Social Impact: We address the global conversation regarding extreme concentrated wealth, featuring perspectives from both pro-growth advocates and critics like Oxfam. What's Next: With Musk now a trillionaire, how will his influence on global policy and the "new Gilded Age" evolve? We provide a balanced look at the numbers, the corporate strategy, and the cultural response to a milestone that many thought was decades away. Whether you are interested in the stock market mechanics, the future of the space industry, or the ethics of extreme wealth, this episode provides the definitive context on Elon Musk's rise to trillionaire status.Disclaimer: This episode covers financial events as of June 2026.

Donald Trump ha decidido que no ordenará nuevos ataques contra Irán y su infraestructura esta noche, tal y como había amenazado esta mañana. El mandatario estadounidense argumenta que las negociaciones con Teheran están siendo llevadas ya al más alto nivel.Hablaremos del Mundial de fútbol, que arranca hoy en México con protestas de las familias de las decenas de miles de personas desaparecidas en este país. Escucharemos algunos testimonios sobre una de esas organizaciones que reclama justicia.En Israel nueva protesta de los judíos ultraortodoxos por su resistencia a ser enviados a cumplir con el servicio militar.Hablaremos de cómo el control ruso de la península de Crimea se tambalea ante la enorme presión de Ucrania, que con sus drones atenaza los suministros al territorio. Charlaremos en una entrevista del fracaso del proyecto para desarrollar un caza europeo, de la dimisión del ministro de Defensa británico y de las protestas de Belfast. En Perú Keiko Fujimori ha recuperado el liderazgo en el recuento de los votos de las presidenciales. Escucharemos lo que dicen dos informes: uno de Oxfam sobre Elon Musk y otro de ACNUR sobre los desplazados.Escuchar audio
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.

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.

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.

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.
