This podcast episode features a conversation sparked by a newly premiered 2025 film Rule Breakers, which follows Afghanistan's first all-girls robotics team and their journey to challenge societal norms and push boundaries. Rule Breakers is a story of determination, defying limitations, and carving out space in science and technology despite the odds. The Raoul Wallenberg Institute had the pleasure of organizing a conversation between our Afghanistan research Fellow Palwasha Mirbacha and Roya Mahboob, the robotics team's co-founder, to talk about the role of alternative learning spaces, the fight for accessible STEM education, and why amplifying the voices of Afghan women and girls matters now more than ever.

Mark Gibney is the Carol Belk Distinguished Professor of Humanities and Political Science at the University of North Carolina at Asheville and the Affiliate Professor at RWI. In this episode, Professor Gibney challenges us to rethink how countries are held accountable — not just within their borders, but on a global scale. We'll discuss his groundbreaking Political Terror Scale, which tracks government oppression in over 185 countries, and explore how a reimagined sense of responsibility could transform the way governments uphold justice and protect human rights. The episode is moderated by Daniella Fetko, a Communication Intern at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law.

Ambassador Olof Skoog, since March 2024, has been the EU Special Representative for Human Rights. He is a Swedish diplomat with extensive experience represen­ting both Sweden and the European Union.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Stephen Sideroff. Dr. Stephen Sideroff is an internationally recognized expert in resilience, optimal performance, addiction, neurofeedback, and alternative approaches to stress and mental health. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry & Biobehavioral Sciences, with a joint appointment in the Department of Rheumatology at UCLA's School of Medicine, as well as the Director of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Ethics.

He has developed and established innovative models of behavior and treatment approaches for restoring physical, emotional, and mental balance and effectiveness in North America, Europe, and Asia. In this episode, Dr. Sideroff talks about why we decided to dedicate his life to resilience. Unfortunately, many people have great resistance to managing their stress. That's why Dr. Sideroff discusses the importance of keeping your nervous system in a good place, how your childhood environment plays a role in your resilience, and unpacking the unconscious to face difficult feelings. Tune in as we dive into Dr. Sideroff's Resilience Assessment Booklet and how to measure a critical aspect of your physiology.  This episode originally aired in 2022. / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  PureForm Omega Plant Based Oils (Best Alternative to Fish Oil): http://www.purelifescience.com Use ben4 for $4.00 off.

He was interested in finding the brain's connections, so he started a career as a brain researcher.  Eventually, he started doing stress management workshops for organizations and corporations. After the workshops, people felt inspired to make changes in their lives. A few months later, very few people actually followed through with those changes. Down the road, Dr. Sideroff began to identify why we have great resistance to managing our stress.  [05:45] Keeping The Nervous System In A Good Place Through Resilience  When we think about resilience, we think about the ability to bounce back and recover after a stressful event.  If you view the world as dangerous, you expect a problem to arise.  When you anticipate danger, your body mobilizes for that danger.  If you're continually activating your nervous system in preparation for danger, you're not allowing your body to recover fully. The ability to bounce back is part of resilience.  [09:40] How The Environment of Our Childhood Will Affect Our Resilience  Primitive Gestalt patterns are how our brain develops throughout childhood based on the lessons of our childhood environment.  Our brain literally forms its circuitry based on those childhood lessons. We adapt to our childhood environment. Then our adaptation gets locked in. If our childhood was dangerous, we as adults continue to think the world is just as dangerous. Resilience is about being able to think outside the box and adapt to our current environment.  Many of the consequences of our childhood are not something that we're always conscious about. [14:50] Unpacking The Unconscious To Live A Happier Life The first step in unpacking the unconscious is a willingness to face complicated feelings, emotions, and issues.  Next, you have to be accepting of whatever emotions you have. You can love your mother and father yet still be angry at them. Living a happier and healthier life is about a willingness to grow up. [20:50] The First Three Pillars From The Path: Mastering the Nine Pillars of Resilience and Success What is the most crucial relationship that you have? It's the relationship with yourself.  Consider these questions: Are you critical and judgmental of yourself?  Do you put yourself down?  Are you loving, accepting, and compassionate toward yourself?  The first pillar is all about how you treat yourself and then comparing that to the healthy or ideal way of treating yourself. You can do this by becoming consciously aware of your thoughts.  The second pillar is your relationship with others. Are you able to tell the difference between healthy and toxic relationships?  The third pillar is a relationship with something more significant; this extends to the community at large.  [33:40] Autonomic Dysregulation Syndrome and The Process of Aging  Dr. Sideroff has proposed an actual diagnostic code which he calls autonomic dysregulation syndrome.  70 to 80% of visits to the doctor's office result from this autonomic dysregulation syndrome.  It underlies whether you have headaches, high blood pressure, or autoimmune disease.  We now have direct evidence that stress speeds up the aging process.  All illness is simply an expression of the aging process.  Luckily, resilience is one way of slowing down the aging process.  [38:45] Get The Resilience Assessment Booklet From Dr. Stephen Sideroff  Here's a link to The Resilience Assessment Booklet: https://drstephensideroff.com/resilience-assessment-booklet-395/ Dr. Sideroff has created a comprehensive model for living in balance and health.  His assessment booklet identifies the nine components of his model and gives a brief and readily understood description of these nine elements of a foundation for resilience.  It then presents a 40 item questionnaire and self-scoring profile that allows you to gauge your areas of strength along with those areas needing more significant development. [43:45] The Connection Between Heart Rate Variability and Gratitude Your heart rate is never on a constant level.  If it is constant, that's a sign that you are unhealthy.  You want to have a heart rate change in a very systematic way. Heart rate variability links your cardiovascular system, nervous system, respiratory system, and emotions.  As you breathe in, your heart rate speeds up because you're activating the sympathetic branch of your nervous system. One of the things that facilitate optimal heart rate variability is gratitude. AND MUCH MORE!

French President Emmanuel Macron and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen are in the spotlight as the latest European leaders visiting China. What message do these visits convey? Can the visit reset China-EU relations? To what extent can the EU achieve strategic autonomy in China policy? How will the deepening of China-France relations lead to regional stability and development? Host of Ge Anna talks with Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Founder of The Schiller Institute, a Germany-based political and economic think tank; Kamal Makili-Aliyev, Affiliated Researcher at Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law in Sweden; Dr. Cui Hongjian Head of European Studies Department at China Institute of International Studies.

The Chinese Communist Party has long shaped China's domestic debates and its value system. At the same time, Beijing increasingly acts as an important norm-entrepreneur in international forums and presents itself as an alternative systemic model. When China's leadership uses terms like multilateralism, development or security it employs its own interpretations of them. To understand those, we turn to the Decoding China Dictionary – a tool to decipher the official Chinese narrative. In this episode of the MERICS China Podcast two of its editors, Katja Drinhausen, Head of Program Politics and Society at MERICS, and Malin Oud, Director of the Stockholm office of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law, talk to Johannes Heller-John about China's discursive power.The Decoding China Dictionary is compiled and edited by Malin Oud, Katja Drinhausen, Marina Rudyak, David Bandurski and Jerker Hellström. Back on popular demand, the second edition published in March 2023 now covers 26 terms. It is available online here and can be downloaded as PDF here.

① Chinese President Xi Jinping landed in Riyadh earlier this week for a state visit to Saudi Arabia and to attend the first China-Arab States Summit and the China-Gulf Cooperation Council Summit. What should we understand about relations between China and the Arab world? ② European officials have lodged complaints over the record green subsidies package in America's Inflation Reduction Act, either saying it is enormously protectionist or it's super aggressive against European competitors. Are U.S. and the EU heading toward a trade war?

JSI interviews Morten Kjaerum, Director of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law about the Institute, and on issues of the day regarding Human Rights around the globe.

Justice Speaks turns to the field of International Human Rights, interviewing Morton Kjaerum, Director of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law.  The post Justice Speaks Podcast Episode #39 appeared first on Justice Speakers Institute.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Stephen Sideroff. Dr. Stephen Sideroff is an internationally recognized expert in resilience, optimal performance, addiction, neurofeedback, and alternative approaches to stress and mental health. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry & Biobehavioral Sciences, with a joint appointment in the Department of Rheumatology at UCLA's School of Medicine, as well as the Director of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Ethics. For over 40 years, Dr. Sideroff has been passionate about studying and understanding resilience and optimal performance. He has developed and established innovative models of behavior and treatment approaches for restoring physical, emotional, and mental balance and effectiveness in North America, Europe, and Asia. In this episode, Dr. Sideroff talks about why we decided to dedicate his life to resilience. Unfortunately, many people have great resistance to managing their stress. That's why Dr. Sideroff discusses the importance of keeping your nervous system in a good place, how your childhood environment plays a role in your resilience, and unpacking the unconscious to face difficult feelings. Tune in as we dive into Dr. Sideroff's Resilience Assessment Booklet and how to measure a critical aspect of your physiology.  ng May 9th 2022.

He was interested in finding the brain's connections, so he started a career as a brain researcher.  Eventually, he started doing stress management workshops for organizations and corporations. After the workshops, people felt inspired to make changes in their lives. A few months later, very few people actually followed through with those changes. Down the road, Dr. Sideroff began to identify why we have great resistance to managing our stress.  [05:45] Keeping The Nervous System In A Good Place Through Resilience  When we think about resilience, we think about the ability to bounce back and recover after a stressful event.  If you view the world as dangerous, you expect a problem to arise.  When you anticipate danger, your body mobilizes for that danger.  If you're continually activating your nervous system in preparation for danger, you're not allowing your body to recover fully. The ability to bounce back is part of resilience.  [09:40] How The Environment of Our Childhood Will Affect Our Resilience  Primitive Gestalt patterns are how our brain develops throughout childhood based on the lessons of our childhood environment.  Our brain literally forms its circuitry based on those childhood lessons. We adapt to our childhood environment. Then our adaptation gets locked in. If our childhood was dangerous, we as adults continue to think the world is just as dangerous. Resilience is about being able to think outside the box and adapt to our current environment.  Many of the consequences of our childhood are not something that we're always conscious about. [14:50] Unpacking The Unconscious To Live A Happier Life The first step in unpacking the unconscious is a willingness to face complicated feelings, emotions, and issues.  Next, you have to be accepting of whatever emotions you have. You can love your mother and father yet still be angry at them. Living a happier and healthier life is about a willingness to grow up. [20:50] The First Three Pillars From The Path: Mastering the Nine Pillars of Resilience and Success What is the most crucial relationship that you have? It's the relationship with yourself.  Consider these questions: Are you critical and judgmental of yourself?  Do you put yourself down?  Are you loving, accepting, and compassionate toward yourself?  The first pillar is all about how you treat yourself and then comparing that to the healthy or ideal way of treating yourself. You can do this by becoming consciously aware of your thoughts.  The second pillar is your relationship with others. Are you able to tell the difference between healthy and toxic relationships?  The third pillar is a relationship with something more significant; this extends to the community at large.  [33:40] Autonomic Dysregulation Syndrome and The Process of Aging  Dr. Sideroff has proposed an actual diagnostic code which he calls autonomic dysregulation syndrome.  70 to 80% of visits to the doctor's office result from this autonomic dysregulation syndrome.  It underlies whether you have headaches, high blood pressure, or autoimmune disease.  We now have direct evidence that stress speeds up the aging process.  All illness is simply an expression of the aging process.  Luckily, resilience is one way of slowing down the aging process.  [38:45] Get The Resilience Assessment Booklet From Dr. Stephen Sideroff  Here's a link to The Resilience Assessment Booklet: https://drstephensideroff.com/resilience-assessment-booklet-395/ Dr. Sideroff has created a comprehensive model for living in balance and health.  His assessment booklet identifies the nine components of his model and gives a brief and readily understood description of these nine elements of a foundation for resilience.  It then presents a 40 item questionnaire and self-scoring profile that allows you to gauge your areas of strength along with those areas needing more significant development. [43:45] The Connection Between Heart Rate Variability and Gratitude Your heart rate is never on a constant level.  If it is constant, that's a sign that you are unhealthy.  You want to have a heart rate change in a very systematic way. Heart rate variability links your cardiovascular system, nervous system, respiratory system, and emotions.  As you breathe in, your heart rate speeds up because you're activating the sympathetic branch of your nervous system. One of the things that facilitate optimal heart rate variability is gratitude. AND MUCH MORE!

When the Taliban took over Afghanistan in 1996, Farima Nawabi was a high school student. Suddenly, she was asked to stay home for five years. Her house turned into a prison for her sisters and her. “The prison of our dreams, goals and hopes for a free and independent life. Our only crime was being women in Afghanistan.” Under the Taliban rule, Farima was not allowed to school. Her life felt like a living hell. “I was mentally exhausted and hopeless for five years in a row. The shock of losing my education was brutal. I could no longer see the future I had imagined for myself. Even many years later I felt the effects of the Taliban school ban on my life.” On 23 March Taliban's again put a ban on girls' education in Afghanistan. Listen to this podcast with Farima Nawabi, a former diplomat who worked at the Afghan Embassy in Stockholm until the Taliban takeover. She is currently holding an Afghan Fellowship from Sida as is based at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute in Lund during 2022. Her research focus is women's rights in Afghanistan. Stay tuned for more podcasts with Farima!

On Russia's part, why is there frustration and resentment towards the post-Cold War security order in Europe? Will the Ukraine crisis make Europe even more dependent on US protection?

While purported to be an apolitical showcase of athletics, free from the troubles of the present geopolitical climate, the Beijing Olympics appear to be off to an inauspicious start even before the opening ceremony. Leading up to the games, several countries including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, Belgium, and Denmark, as well as CEE nations like Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia have announced a diplomatic boycott of the games. Further, New Zealand, Sweden, The Netherlands, Slovenia, and Austria have backed away from sending representation on COVID grounds. As such, state propaganda that most definitely sought to promote the positive view of China at a pivotal point in its history will be diminished. As the games kick-off, the presentation amidst the political overhang looks as though it may be just as interesting to observe as the athletics itself. Malin Oud, head of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute's Stockholm office and Team Leader of its Economic Globalization and Human Rights thematic area joins the podcast to outline all of the issues and implications.

Anchinesh Shiferaw spent some time at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute's head office in Lund as a visiting scholar. In this wide-ranging interview, we cover everything from her academic journey to her exciting research in the area of women's land rights in Ethiopia.

In this episode of the ChinaPower Podcast, Malin Oud joins us to discuss the importance of language in understanding China’s diplomatic and international cooperation strategies. Ms. Oud breaks down China’s efforts to both redefine international values and standards, such as “democracy,” “rule of law” and “human rights," and promote its own definitions when interacting with other nations via diplomacy and international cooperation. She argues that China’s efforts to both weaken current international norms and promote its own norms on the global stage indicates that China has growing confidence in itself and its political system. This increased confidence, Ms. Oud explains, has increased China’s desire to build its discursive power, and become a “rule maker” rather than a “rule taker.” Lastly, Ms. Oud states that when Western nations engage with China, they need to not only understand what China means when it uses the language of international values and standards, but also strengthen their own, domestic capabilities so as to meaningfully defend current standards and international norms.  Malin Oud is the Director of the Stockholm Office of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law. She was the founder and Managing Director of Tracktwo, Sweden, and was previously the Programme Manager for the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency. Her most recent report, The Decoding China Dictionary, co-edited with Katja Drinhausen, was published earlier this year by the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and International Law.

Även kommunistpartiet talar om demokrati, mänskliga rättigheter och yttrandefrihet, men partiet har skapat egna definitioner. I veckans avsnitt får vi hjälp med att avkoda Kinas politiska språkbruk för att förstå vad Xi Jinping och andra kinesiska ledare faktiskt menar. Och så utvecklas tvåkoppsteorin som förklarar varför Xi Jinping drack te ur två tekoppar på den nu avslutade nationella folkkongressen. Spoiler: Det handlar om makt.

This panel discussion features the following speakers: Dr. Philip Gamaghelyan, Assistant Professor, Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies, University of San Diego Dr. Resat Kasaba, Ann H.H. and Kenneth B. Pyle Professor of U.S. Foreign Policy, Jackson School of International Studies, University of Washington Dr. Kamal Makili-Aliyev, Senior Lecturer, Department of Global Political Studies, Malmö University; affiliated researcher, Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law Moderator: Dr. Scott Radnitz, Herbert Ellison Associate Professor of Russian and Eurasian Studies, University of Washington On September 27, 2020, nearly three decades of conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh escalated into full-scale war. Forty-four days later, on November 10th, a Russian-brokered ceasefire agreement between the two countries brought a formal end to fighting. Seven districts surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh returned to Azerbaijani control, as well as part of Nagorno-Karabakh itself. According to the agreement, Russian peacekeepers have been dispatched to the region for five years (with the possibility of extension), economic and transportation links are to be unblocked, and internally displaced persons and refugees are to be given the right of return. Yet the legal status of Nagorno-Karabakh remains undefined, and the agreement is not a formal peace treaty. In the midst of this new status quo, what comes next for Nagorno-Karabakh? This panel discusses the reasons for and outcomes of the recent war between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as the remaining questions surrounding the ceasefire agreement between the two countries. Panelists also discuss the changing geopolitics and geopolitical actors in the region, including the role of Turkey and the Minsk Group countries, and the necessary elements for building a sustainable peace in Nagorno-Karabakh. This talk is hosted by the Ellison Center for Russian, East European, and Central Asian Studies, with the Jackson School of International Studies, at the University of Washington.

An event co-hosted by Cambridge Family Law and the Cambridge Socio-Legal Group at the Faculty of Law on 12 November 2019.Speaker: Professor Nancy Dowd, David H. Levin Chair in Family Law at the University of Florida Levin College of Law.Professor Dowd will present the core thesis and arguments of her recent book, Reimagining Equality: A New Deal for Children of Color (NYU Press 2018). She argues that children's equality must include developmental equality, meaning that each child should be supported to their full developmental capacity. She will present the three essential parts of the book and then hope to engage in discussion and feedback. She will focus most of her presentation on Part III of the book, which melds the developmental and legal implications of children's inequalities and hierarchies among children. She will suggest strategies for change, which include three possibilities: using existing statutory frameworks, constitutional litigation and affirmative, comprehensive legislation that she calls a New Deal for Children, borrowing from the New Deal of the 1930s in the US.Professor Dowd is the David H. Levin Chair in Family Law at the University of Florida Levin College of Law, and an affiliate of the Anita Zucker Center. She served as Interim Director and Director of the Center on Children and Families at the UF law school from 2007-2015. She currently is a Distinguished Guest Professor at Aalborg University, Denmark, for 2018-2020, and in 2017 was the Fulbright Distinguished Chair in Public International Law at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law and Lund University, Sweden. Her research focuses on social justice issues that link family law, juvenile law, constitutional law, critical race and gender analysis, and social change theories. She is the author of eight books and over 50 articles.For more information about the Cambridge Family Law Centre, see the website at:https://www.family.law.cam.ac.uk/

Baber. Baber is the 2017/18 Fulbright Distinguished Chair of Public International Law at the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and the Faculty of Law at Lund University.

On the evening of November 13, 2015, a series of coordinated terrorist attacks occurred in Paris, France, killing and maiming hundreds of people. Ultimately, the terror organization ISIS took responsibility for the attacks in retaliation of French airstrikes targeting ISIS on Syrian and Iraqi soil. These attacks rattled the world and put a spotlight on terrorism. So, with a complete and utter disregard for the rules of war by terror organizations, what needs to change? In this episode of Lawyer 2 Lawyer, hosts Bob Ambrogi and J. Craig Williams join Dr. Lyal S. Sunga, head of the Rule of Law program at the Hague Institute for Global Justice in The Netherlands. They take a look at the recent Paris attacks, terrorism today vs. the terrorism of yesteryear, the Geneva Conventions and international law’s role, and what needs to be done legally to stay current in our fight against terrorism. Dr. Lyal S. Sunga has conducted monitoring, investigation, reporting, technical cooperation, education and training in some 55 countries over the last 25 years in human rights, humanitarian law, and international criminal law.
