Chris Mburu's life was transformed by a small act of kindness. Now the UN Resident Coordinator in the Republic of Congo, he grew up in a Kenyan family struggling to afford his education. That was until a stranger in Sweden offered to pay for him to go to school. “When I look at poverty, it evokes memories of my own childhood. What keeps me going is the desire to keep as many people as possible out of poverty, because I remember my past, and where I was, I really do not want to see anybody there.” After attending Harvard, the now UN human rights lawyer wanted to give back. Having found his long-lost childhood benefactor, Holocaust survivor Hilde Back, he set up a scholarship in her name to put Kenyan children through school. In this episode, Chris Mburu reflects on his own path out of poverty, the transformational power of development, and the ripple effect of small acts.

Ukraine: UN rights office condemnation for wave of missile attacks DR Congo sees deadly surge in intercommunal violence WMO report urges swifter action on transition to clean energy

The Republic of Congo is not to be confused with the Democratic Republic of Congo, it's much larger Francophone neighbour. But like it's neighbour, it is rich in valuable minerals, particularly oil and timber. So perhaps it makes sense that Charles, who, with his wife is the only Republic of Congo-born residents of Tasmania, should be a geologist. As you will hear in this episode, it has been an interesting life path to get here. We talk about several life changing moments - his father going blind, the culture shock of moving from an inland rural area to a large coastal city for education, and then an academic journey to Malaysia and finally to Tasmania, where he currently works at the University of Tasmania's School of Earth Sciences. He also does voluntary work advocating for the local African and other diverse communities, and we also discuss his faith and how he reconciles that with being a scientist - an interesting conversation.

This week on Womanity-Women in Unity, Dr. Amaleya Goneos-Malka talks to the Ambassador of the Republic of Congo Chantal Maryse Itoua-Apoyolo, who is accredited to South Africa, Eswatini, Lesotho and Zimbabwe.  We discuss gender equality developments in the Republic of Congo. For instance, the formation of the Revolutionary Union of Congolese Women, whose motto was “Seule la lutte libère”, which translates to “Only the Fight will Free Us”. The efforts of this Union helped pave the way for the rights and opportunities that women enjoy today.  Congo promotes equal access to all levels of education irrespective of gender. The country initiated a program called Positive Masculinity which emphasises that attaining gender equality requires the involvement of men. We reflect on  the fact that societies can and should evolve to advance gender equality and women's empowerment. Tune in for more.

Ambassador Robin Renee Sanders joins Judd and Nicole to discuss U.S. policy toward the Republic of Congo, also known as Congo-Brazzaville or Congo-B. Ambassador Sanders recommends that the Biden administration engage current President Denis Sassou on a two-three-year plan to transition out of office, as well as maintain support for security initiatives in the country. Plus, we hear a bit about the significance of art—and paintings in particular—in the Republic of Congo.

The Republic of Congo has signed a landmark agreement with the World Bank to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation.

With just days until the next presidential election on March 21, our team went to the Pool region in the south of the Republic of Congo. Back in 2016, the area was the site of a brutal war triggered by post-electoral violence which saw militiamen known as the “Ninjas” take up arms against government forces. A ceasefire was signed in December 2017, but the wounds are still raw.

Syndemic means more than one epidemic occur in one region. Recently Congo declared Ebola as a epidemic. It's very difficult to tackle deadly viruses.

This special live episode in a question and answer format was recorded at Greenwood Forest Baptist Church in Cary, NC, Gilles' home congregation in the United States. It was recorded in between the third and fourth episodes of the series.
