In the 1980s rural Minnesota was struggling with the farm crisis and the McKnight Foundation launched an experiment — the Minnesota Initiative Foundations. These six independent regional foundations across greater Minnesota were created to listen to their communities and invest in local economic development. Over four decades, they've distributed hundreds of millions of dollars in grants and loans to help address housing and child care, support entrepreneurs, train up new leaders and create a sense of belonging. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with the heads of two of the regional foundations about creative solutions to challenges facing rural Minnesota. Guests: Benya Kraus became the president and CEO in 2025 of the Southern Minnesota Initiative Foundation, which invests for economic growth in 20 counties and one Native community in south central and southeastern Minnesota. She previously worked in advancement at Resource Rural, a national philanthropy that raised public and private funds to invest in rural and tribal communities. Brian Voerding was named president of the Initiative Foundation in 2023 after serving two years as its vice president for inclusive entrepreneurship, which is based in Little Falls, Minn. and invests in 14 counties and two Native nations in central Minnesota. He was previously editor of the Winona Daily News and executive director of Engage Winona, a nonprofit that engages and trains people to solve local problems in Winona.

Locusts numbers are on the rise - and departments in Victoria and New South Wales have both warned landholders to be on the lookout in the Wimmera-Mallee as well as northern and western New South Wales. SA and southern Queensland are also at risk. Farmers have grave concerns that some of the most effective chemicals have either been deregistered - or are under review - and they want urgent action to clarify what to use.

What does it look like when rural education leads, not waits?Dr. Michael Conner welcomes Dr. Melissa Sadorf, executive director of the National Rural Education Association (NREA), the oldest national education organization in the country, founded in 1907. In her first year leading NREA, Dr. Sadorf is rolling out the organisation's first-ever five-year strategic plan, and reframing what rural schools are truly capable of.In this conversation, you'll hear why the rural superintendent's many roles aren't a weakness, but a structural advantage. Dr. Sadorf shares four approaches for building lasting capacity without new money, explains how competitive federal AI grants quietly manufacture the very gap they claim to solve, and lays out what a formula-based fix could look like.She also introduces NREA's National Rural Principal Fellowship, preparing up to 30 leaders beginning at this year's NFARE conference.

What happens when California's fastest-growing older population lives in communities where housing is scarce, healthcare can be hours away, and essential support services are difficult to find? For rural older adults, these challenges are already a reality—and they are only becoming more urgent.In this episode of the California State Rural Health Association Podcast, we hear from Dr. Pauline DeLange Martinez, a public health researcher and gerontologist at the UC Davis Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing's Family Caregiving Institute. Dr. DeLange Martinez brings together research, community engagement, and policy expertise to examine how California can better support older adults and family caregivers in rural communities.Dr. DeLange Martinez explores why action is needed now. Nearly one in eleven Californians age 65 and older lives in a rural community, while rural counties have a higher proportion of older adults and higher rates of disability. Even more striking, California's population age 85 and older is projected to increase by 158% between 2025 and 2040—creating an urgent need to rethink how rural communities approach aging, healthcare, housing, and caregiving.Drawing on a two-year Rural Master Plan for Aging initiative involving three California regions and 227 community participants, Dr. DeLange Martinez shares findings from older adults, caregivers, healthcare providers, and community leaders. The conversation examines three critical areas:Housing: Hidden homelessness, rising costs, manufactured-home challenges, limited affordable housing, and the impact of disasters such as wildfires.Long-Term Services and Supports: The growing pressure on family caregivers, shortages of direct care workers, limited rural services, and the need for better navigation and caregiver support.Healthcare: Long travel distances, provider shortages, delayed care, chronic disease, behavioral health needs, dementia care, transportation barriers, and persistent inequities affecting rural older adults.The episode also explores practical policy recommendations, including expanding home- and community-based services, strengthening the rural direct care workforce, improving transportation, increasing telehealth and community paramedicine, expanding geriatric expertise, and ensuring that older adults are meaningfully included in California's Rural Health Transformation Plan.But perhaps the most important takeaway is that rural California is not one-size-fits-all. From wildfire recovery in the North State to nutrition access in the Central Valley and extreme geographic isolation in the Inland Empire, rural communities have very different needs—and effective policy must give local communities the flexibility to identify and address their own priorities.Listen to this important conversation to learn what rural aging looks like today, what California can do to prepare for the future, and why supporting older adults must be central to achieving true rural health equity.What You'll Learn From This Episode:Meet the ResearcherWhy Rural Aging Needs ActionMaster Plan for Aging and Rural InitiativeHousing Instability SolutionsCaregiving and Workforce GapsHealthcare Fixes and Final TakeawaysThe CSRHA has been a go-to resource for rural healthcare and community leaders since 1995.

In late July, just two days before the first of the month, a line of Oregonians stood waiting for free food.    At the Dallas food bank in the Willamette Valley countryside, the hunger crisis gripping Oregon was on full display. Alexis Arechiga, 28, struggles to afford snacks for church and sporting events with her two kids. Corrina Campbell, 32, visits the food bank twice a week, and says feeding her two kids means that on some nights she goes to sleep hungry.   The high cost of groceries and the federal government’s cuts to SNAP benefits have left more Oregonians struggling to afford food. Food assistance programs like food banks are stretched thin trying to meet the growing demand for help.    “Usually it’s pretty full,” said food bank manager Eddie Nelson as she opened a freezer. “But as you can tell our freezers are getting empty.”   In this week’s episode, Evergreen producer Mía Estrada and reporter Bryce Dole spend about 24 hours in Dallas. They bring us along for one day at free, local food programs in rural Oregon.    For more Evergreen episodes and to share your voice with us, visit our showpage.

Du 17 au 28 août, la Mongolie accueille à Oulan-Bator la COP17 contre la désertification, un sommet international pour tenter de trouver des solutions et des financements pour contrer ce phénomène exacerbé par le dérèglement climatique qui touche une grande partie de la planète. La Mongolie en est l'une des victimes les plus emblématiques : 76,9% de ses terres sont touchées par la désertification. Rendant les pâturages inexploitables, le phénomène est source de migrations importantes. À Oulan-Bator, les quartiers des yourtes ne cessent de se remplir de réfugiés climatiques. Des quartiers pauvres qui représentent 58,8% de la population de la capitale... De notre correspondant à Oulan-Bator, Étienne Cholez De leur vie d'éleveurs, il ne reste que des figurines de chevaux au-dessus de leur lit. Les animaux ont disparu du quotidien d'Enkhtuvshin et Tsogzolmaa, un couple d'une trentaine d'années. « L'été a été très dur : une sécheresse, et presque plus d'herbe. Nous avions 800 chevaux, moutons et chèvres. Ils n'avaient rien mangé. L'hiver a commencé et on a presque tout perdu en quelques jours. Alors on est partis en laissant derrière nous les derniers animaux, dans la nature. Ça nous a fait beaucoup de mal », racontent-ils. Le couple et ses deux enfants ont quitté leur province du Khentii, à 500 km à l'est de la capitale mongole. Leur yourte est désormais installée sur une parcelle de tôle et de bois appartenant à l'un de leurs proches, le long de la route qui sort d'Oulan-Bator. Tsogzolmaa travaille désormais dans une station-service, tandis que son mari a trouvé un emploi dans une compagnie de transport routier. « Le plus dur, à la ville, c'est le temps. On doit tout faire à la minute entre l'école et le travail… On doit payer nos dettes aussi. Nous, on rêve de pouvoir redevenir éleveurs, de vivre à la campagne, avec nos animaux, comme avant. Mais c'est impossible. Alors, dans les prochaines semaines, on va s'installer sur une autre parcelle, à nous, mais plus loin, dans un autre quartier. Et on va essayer de construire une petite maison avec des parpaings pour les murs et des tôles pour le toit », explique le couple. Cette situation illustre l'une des spécificités de la loi mongole, qui contribue à la formation de ces quartiers de yourtes : l'installation dans ces zones confère un droit de propriété aux citoyens. Selon la mairie d'Oulan-Bator, sur une population d'1,7 million d'habitants, un million de Mongols vivent dans ces quartiers précaires, dépourvus d'eau courante. Un défi de taille pour Khosbayar, membre du conseil municipal en charge des constructions dans la capitale. « Ces quartiers engendrent beaucoup de pollution car ils ne sont pas reliés à nos systèmes de chauffage. Le trafic aussi s'en retrouve de plus en plus encombré. On a lancé de grands programmes de relogement il y a deux ans. On prévoit d'installer 40 000 familles d'ici à 2030 dans des appartements tout neufs », précise-t-il. Parallèlement, des projets d'éco-quartiers sont en cours, visant à permettre à près de 10 000 familles de se séparer de leur poêle à charbon et de leurs toilettes à fosse.

Texas Railroad Commissioner Wayne Christian joins Kirk Offel for a wide-ranging conversation about the infrastructure required to support America's accelerating demand for artificial intelligence.They explore Texas' energy advantage, grid reliability, natural gas generation, the potential reuse of produced water for data center cooling, and the role data centers could play in rebuilding rural communities. Commissioner Christian shares examples of how major infrastructure investments can generate property-tax revenue, create local career paths, and allow families to remain in the towns they call home.Kirk and Commissioner Christian also discuss community opposition, responsible site selection, industry communication failures, workforce development, and why developers must speak directly with the people affected by these projects—not simply arrive with polished presentations.At the center of the conversation is a critical question: Can Texas create a model for data center growth that strengthens the grid, protects communities, expands opportunity, and helps secure America's position in the global AI race?For more about us: https://weareoverwatch.com/data-center-revolution-podcast/For guest inquiries reach out to: podcasts@weareoverwatch.com

BURNHAM'S DELIBERATELY MISSING THE POINT! STOP MOVING ILLEGALS — STOP THE BOATS!  #COBRA #UKPolitics #NigelFarage #ReformUK #BorderCrisis #JonGaunt #AndyBurnham #StopTheBoats #IllegalImmigration  Andy Burnham is playing a blinder — because once again the political and media conversation is focused on the WRONG QUESTION. We're being encouraged to argue about WHERE illegal migrants should be housed. Cities? Towns? Rural communities? Hotels? Camps? But I'm asking something much more fundamental: WHY ARE THEY STILL COMING ACROSS THE CHANNEL IN THE FIRST PLACE?  Successive governments have failed to control Britain's borders — and now ordinary communities are effectively being told they have to "do their bit" and accept the consequences. No! POLITICIANS NEED TO DO THEIR BIT. Secure the border. Stop the boats. Process claims rapidly. Remove people who have no legal right to remain. And create a system that actually deters illegal crossings rather than endlessly managing them after they've happened. That's why I believe Burnham is deliberately missing the point. By turning today's argument into a row about whether migrants should be moved from cities into rural areas, the debate shifts away from the enormous political failure at the heart of this crisis: BRITAIN HAS LOST CONTROL OF ITS BORDERS.  And before somebody inevitably starts screaming "racist" or "far-right", let's be absolutely clear. Wanting secure borders isn't racist. Wanting immigration laws enforced isn't racist. Wanting failed asylum seekers removed isn't racist. And believing governments should plan properly instead of constantly firefighting crises isn't extremist.  The same principle applies to our prisons. We don't want dangerous prisoners released early simply because politicians failed to provide enough prison places. When the controversy involves men convicted over the killing of PC Andrew Harper, the public understandably wants to know why the system reached this position. Governments know roughly how many prisoners they have. They know roughly how many people are entering the asylum system. SO PLAN AHEAD! BUILD THE CAPACITY! CONTROL THE BORDER! And then, to cap it all, Burnham is reportedly calling a COBRA meeting over the hot weather. IT'S AUGUST! Where's that emergency mentality over the Channel? Where's the COBRA-level urgency over prison capacity? Where's the detailed plan to stop illegal crossings rather than simply deciding where people should be housed once they're here?

In this episode of the Elevate Care podcast, host Enderson Miranda sits down with Brian Floyd, Chief Operating Officer at ECU Health and chairman of the board for the North Carolina Health Care Association, to unpack a framework Brian calls the "six dimensions of rurality." Drawing on more than 30 years of healthcare leadership, coupled with the unique understanding of a clinician that practiced within the rural healthcare setting, Brian explains why treating rural healthcare as simply a geography problem misses the point, and why density, distance, demographics, disease burden, determinants, and disparity together create structural barriers that urban-focused policy often fails to address. Brian also shares how ECU Health builds a sustainable workforce from within its own communities, using point-based admissions systems with local universities to keep talent close to home, and how the organization has partnered with AMN Healthcare to achieve conversion rates for international nurses well above the national average. The conversation closes with a candid look at the role technology can play in closing access gaps, and the advocacy work that healthcare leaders must take to ensure rural systems remain viable for the communities that depend on them. This episode offers healthcare leaders a clear and structural lens for evaluating rural care delivery, along with concrete workforce and policy strategies that translate directly into retention, access, and financial sustainability. Key Takeaways Rural healthcare needs a structural definition, not just a geographic one. Brian's six dimensions of rurality (density, distance, demographics, disease burden, determinants, and disparity) reframe how leaders and policymakers should evaluate rural care delivery. Hospital closures are the tail end of a much longer decline. Physician loss, specialty care exits, and reduced preventative services happen long before a hospital closes its doors. Payment reform must remain a top policy priority. Wage index adjustments and reimbursement structures often pay rural systems less for treating the same disease burden as urban systems. Local workforce investment drives long-term retention. ECU Health adjusts university admissions criteria to prioritize students from the communities it serves, growing local enrollment by over 10 percent. Mission-driven culture fuels nurse retention, both nationally and internationally. ECU Health converts more than 90% of international nurse placements into permanent employees, a rate significantly above national average. Technology can close access gaps that bricks-and-mortar models cannot. Telehealth and AI free up clinician time for direct patient care and extend reach across low-density rural regions.   Chapters 00:00 – Introduction to Brian Floyd and ECU Health 01:01 – Brian's Journey from Nursing to Health System Leadership 04:08 – Why Rural and Urban Healthcare Operate Under Different Realities 07:04 – The Six Dimensions of Rurality: Density, Distance, Demographics, Disease Burden, Social Determinants, and Payment Disparity 14:06 – How Technology and AI Can Close Rural Access Gaps 17:37 – Where Rural Healthcare Gaps Hit Hardest: Patients Versus Systems 20:52 – The Policy Gap: Why Payment Reform Matters Most 24:08 – Building a Sustainable Rural Workforce from Within 32:29 – Local Talent Meets Global Talent: Retaining International Nurses 36:42 – Advocacy Advice for Healthcare Leaders Meet Brian Floyd Brian Floyd is Chief Operating Officer at ECU Health, a health system with eight hospitals, including a 1,100-bed tertiary academic medical center, and roughly 250 clinics across eastern North Carolina.

Drought can leave horse owners facing tough decisions. Do you keep grazing what's left? Feed more hay? Hope for rain? Or could some of the things you're hoping to get by with, make your pasture take even longer to recover?

For over 125 years, Farmers Mutual Telephone Company (FMTC) has helped connect rural Iowa—first with telephones, then cable television, cellular service, broadband internet, and now preparing for what may become agriculture's next major infrastructure investment: AI computing. In this episode, Kevin shares how a small rural telephone company evolved into a modern broadband provider and why Iowa's independent telecommunications companies have been uniquely positioned to bring fiber internet to rural communities long before much of the country caught up. He explains how fiber optic networks work, why broadband is becoming just as essential as electricity, and why nearly every modern technology—from cellular service to Starlink—ultimately depends on fiber somewhere along the journey. The conversation then turns toward one of the fastest-growing topics in technology: artificial intelligence. Kevin explains why AI is creating unprecedented demand for computing power, what massive data centers mean for energy and infrastructure, and why he believes the future isn't giant facilities consuming thousands of acres—but rather distributed micro data centers that could fit on a single lot while serving customers around the world. The hosts also tackle concerns many farmers have about large data centers, including land use, energy consumption, and local economic impact. Kevin discusses how smaller AI computing facilities could create new opportunities without removing productive farmland while giving farmers more control over their own data. The discussion explores whether producers could someday "farm data" just like they market grain—owning, storing, and deciding when and how to monetize one of their operation's fastest-growing assets. Along the way, you'll also hear: How the internet actually reaches your farm Why symmetrical upload and download speeds matter The differences between fiber, cellular, and Starlink The future of precision agriculture and AI Why protecting farm data may become just as important as protecting grain in the bin Whether fiber optics will ever be replaced If you've ever wondered how technology is reshaping agriculture—or where rural America fits into the AI revolution—this episode offers a fascinating look at what's coming next.

Rural people are a minority in America and rural regions are often overlooked except during elections or farm bill debates. In Episode 4, we hear from two veteran rural advocates: Anna Claussen, Founder of Voices for Rural Resilience and Ash Hanson, CEO of The Department of Public Transformation, about the key reasons why overlooking the rural people, places and economies of our nation is a mistake. Their conversation invites us to look beyond our political and urban-rural differences to discover the culture, deep care, and creative resilience that is alive in rural communities—and what becomes possible when those strengths are recognized and supported. Rural people and communities have much to share with urban America that makes us a better nation.

This throwback episode features a great conversation with Dr. Dave Whitlock! They discuss the unique opportunities, lifestyle perks, and financial benefits of practicing dentistry in rural communities. Having transitioned from high-competition, high-cost metro markets like Phoenix and Dallas to rural Eastern Kentucky, Dr. Whitlock shares how moving away from urban saturation allowed him to lower his living costs, reduce practice overhead, and secure an overwhelming demand for dental care. Together, they break down common misconceptions surrounding rural dentistry, discuss the overwhelming student debt burden facing new graduates, and highlight how stepping off the beaten path can offer clinicians better schedule flexibility, greater practice profitability, and an improved quality of life.
