This week on The New Arab Voice podcast we look at the state of the war in Sudan.It's been declared the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, with hunger, disease and displacement rife. Yet the fighting surges on with reports of atrocities in the Kordofan region that left hundreds of civilians dead last weekend, the UN reported.The two rival militaries, the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces, are showing no sign of slowing down - and they have a few external forces to thank.So why is the UAE accused of involvement in the war? Who else is fighting for a piece of Sudan's mineral rich pie? And might the crisis be next on the list for the “peacemaking” Trump administration in Washington?To discuss all this and more, we speak to Hamid Khafallah (@HamidMurtada) Sudanese Researcher and Policy Analyst at the University of Manchester (@OfficialUoM), Hala Alkarib (@Halayalkarib) Sudanese activist and Regional Director of Strategic Initiative for Women in the Horn of Africa, and Khalid Omer Yousif (@KHOYousif) Vice Chairman of Sudanese Congress Party and former minister of cabinet affairs in the transitional government.

Gem Montes is a Policy Analyst and Advocate at the People's Collective for Environmental Justice (PCEJ) in the Inland Empire. Upon realizing that the City of Colton, which experiences some of the worst air in the nation, has little to no public access air monitoring information, she partnered with PCEJ to create a Community-Based Participatory Research project called The Air I Breathe. Gem is a leader in grassroot advocacy. In 2022, she graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Riverside's School of Public Policy. While there, she received a fellowship with the University of California's Carbon Neutrality Initiative as an Engagement Fellow. Immediately afterwards, she received a fellowship with the California Climate Action Corps as a Heat Rezilient Fellow at Pauma Tribal Farms. Notably, she has accrued multiple certifications in tribal subjects. Gem's broad range of education and experience has allowed her to successfully navigate complex relationships and establish trust with government agencies, tribal affiliates, environmental organizations and community members. Her passion and commitment to finding solutions for the injustices imposed upon frontline communities results in work that is second to none. At an age when most are retiring, she remains eager to learn and continues to be a force to be reckoned with.

The Salvation Army says sanctions on beneficiaries which force people to find volunteer work for a few hours a week isn't the best use of resources. New 'non-financial' sanctions are set to come into force for beneficiaries who don't meet their obligations - including having part of their weekly benefit put on a payment card or finding volunteer work for at least 5 hours a week. But Salvation Army principal social policy analyst Paul Barber doesn't believe that's the right way to go for people who are struggling to find work. "There are already a lot of sanctions available... we're talking about a relatively small group of people within the total number of people who are receiving welfare."

The US is immediately lifting its pause on military aid and intelligence-sharing to Ukraine. It follows several hours of discussions between officials from Washington and Kyiv in Saudi Arabia this morning. Ukraine's backing the United States' 30-day ceasefire proposal – contingent on Russia's agreement. Russia's not at the talks. Kyiv-based foreign policy analyst Jimmy Rushton told Mike Hosking this is a major win for the Ukrainian government. He says the Ukrainians are doing everything they can to demonstrate they're ready to end the war that's cost hundreds of thousands of lives. Military officials from over 30 nations will also meet in Paris for talks later today. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Connecting with and providing counselling to irregular migrants, especially those living on the streets or in transit, is crucial for addressing irregular migration. Yet it remains a challenging and underexplored area, due in part to the difficulty engaging with a population often living in precarity and avoiding contact with authorities due to fear of deportation or past negative experiences. A pervasive lack of trust coupled with a concealed lifestyle often prevents irregular migrants in Europe from accessing critical information about existing services, pathways to regularization, and voluntary return options. As a result, many remain unaware of the support available to help them exit irregularity. In recent years, various stakeholders have sought to strengthen outreach and counselling for irregular migrants, whether to encourage voluntary return, provide information on regularization, or raise awareness about access to services. However, the fragmented nature of these initiatives, combined with a lack of evidence on their effectiveness, highlights the need for greater collaboration and dialogue. This webinar brings together policymakers, practitioners, and other experts to explore the value of outreach and counselling to irregular populations and the policy goals and approaches used. The conversation includes key findings from an MPI Europe brief, offering valuable insights into challenges for those involved in outreach and counselling activities aimed at irregular migrants. The brief offers some recommendations as well as a proposed framework to advance the knowledge base in the field. The conversation also discusses the first steps towards a more solid evidence base made under the Reaching Undocumented Migrants (RUM) project carried out by the Return and Reintegration Facility (RRF), an EU-funded entity that supports EU Member States and other Schengen countries as they seek to increase the effectiveness of their return and reintegration programming. The RUM project aims to develop and promote evidence-based tools, datasets, and processes that can be used by a wide European community of practice to improve outreach to irregular migrants within the European Union. Speakers include: Jan Braat, Senior Policy Advisor, Migration, Diversity, and Integration, Municipality of Utrecht, the Netherlands Giulia Bruschi, Data and Research Project Manager Europe, Mixed Migration Centre Christina Jespersen, Senior Project Manager, Return and Reintegration Facility Jeroen Vandekerckhove, Head of International Relations, Fedasil, Belgium Moderator: María Belén Zanzuchi, Policy Analyst, Migration Policy Institute Europe

Beaches closed near Nantucket, MA after a single blade from an offshore wind farm broke into shards and chunks, creating a hazard for swimmers, wildlife, and boats. Each blade is 350 feet long and weighs 140,000 lbs. Future plans call for 5,000 wind turbines in the Atlantic alone. Have we carefully considered hazards presented by offshore wind farms, particularly in hurricane conditions? Paul Driessen, Sr. Policy Analyst at CFACT gives the facts on this badly underexamined topic. Driessen is the author of multiple books: Eco-Imperialism: Green Power, Black Death; Cracking Big Green: Saving the World from the Save-the-Earth Money Machine; and Miracle Molecule: Carbon Dioxide, The Gas of Life.
