According to the UN Refugee Agency, a staggering 108.4 million people were displaced from their homes by the end of 2022 due to reasons such as persecution, conflict, violence, or human rights violations. On today's episode, we discuss the pressing issue of the global refugee crisis and how data is playing a crucial role in addressing it. To help shed light on this topic, we talk to Dr. Seema Iyer, Senior Director of The Hive, USA for UNHCR's innovation lab responsible for bringing data science, machine learning, and new technologies into the organization's operations to enhance fundraising for refugees. During the conversation we discuss the pivotal role of data science in addressing the refugee crisis and delve into the types of data gathered to understand the needs of refugees, the challenges in utilizing this data, and the potential role of AI in facilitating new approaches.  Listen now to this month's insightful episode. Our guest: Dr. Seema Iyer, Senior Director, The Hive, USA for the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR)  

Today on Midday, Jayne Miller, the former WBAL reporter and now an independent investigative journalist, begins a three-day stint here guest hosting for Tom Hall. The latest US Census data show Baltimore City continues to lose population. The total number of city residents is 569,930, according to the latest count — a staggering 40% decline since the 1950's. But inside those numbers are trends, stories and indicators that can help us better understand the profound changes happening in the city, and the region. Jayne's guest today is Dr. Amanda Phillips de Lucas, the new director of the Baltimore Neighborhood Indicators Alliance — Jacob France Institute. Each year, BNIA-JFI issues Baltimore's Vital Signs report, which tracks more than 150 indicators to take the pulse of neighborhood health and vitality. The non-profit organization is housed at the University of Baltimore and for many years was led by Seema Iyer, who spearheaded BNIA's efforts to bring data science to bear on improving neighborhood governance in Baltimore. Last month, Dr. de Lucas was selected to take charge of the alliance's crucial mission of gathering and analyzing data to better understand the needs of the city's diverse communities.

The city of Baltimore has been losing population for seven decades. What made the 38,000-person loss disclosed in the 2020 census so heartbreaking was not just its size--the city had seen bigger, even multiple, losses in previous decades. But Baltimore was the only city on the East Coast to shrink: New York, Boston, Atlanta all expanded. Nearby Philadelphia grew by 4 percent, Washington DC by 17 percent. What is driving Baltimore's shrinkage? UB research professor Seema Iyer scrubbed the data. Some blame crime, but she says crime is a symptom of deeper failures: neighborhoods isolated, without social, civic, digital or transportation connections. Plus, Nneka N'namdi of Fight Blight Bmore discusses why demolishing vacants seldom fixes a neighborhood's problems. Explore the Baltimore Community Change Project's research about how neighborhoods evolved from 2010 to 2020. Next week is Baltimore Data Week 2022.

The 2020 Census reveals that Baltimore's population is at its lowest point in a century. How to reverse the shrinking trend? Seema Iyer oversees the Baltimore Neighborhood Indicators Alliance, which collects community-level data on hundreds of factors--like income, education, and employment. Iyer blames the slump on lack of access--access to transit, access to the internet, even access to capital. Check out BNIA's latest report - Vital Signs 19 - as well as videos on that data.Then, what do the Census numbers mean for the state's electoral maps?

We sat down and chatted with Sally J. Scott, Program Director of UMBC's Graduate Program in Community Leadership. We spoke about her recent contribution in a report she co-authored with Seema Iyer of the Jacob France Institute at the University of Baltimore titled Overcoming Barriers to Home Ownership in Baltimore City. Summary of the ReportThe report initially came out of a question that we were asked by the Abell Foundation, which was, “Could we help more people become homeowners in Baltimore if they had access to more flexible loans and better incentives, such as closing cost assistance?” And that seems like a straightforward question. But as we dug into it and we looked at the local data and the national data, we realized that those proposed solutions would not be enough. There are much deeper issues at work limiting people's homeownership opportunities in Baltimore. And that's particularly true in the black community. We learned that decades of systemic racism, as well as the Great Recession in 2008 and 2009, have created barriers to homeownership in the black community in Baltimore. To address those would require much more systemic and far-reaching solutions than simply better loans and better incentives.We hope you enjoy this episode!

Guilty!  After over twenty-four hours of deliberations a jury of seven men and five women came to a decision – Harvey Weinstein is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of two charges: criminal sex act in the first degree and rape in the third degree.  He was acquitted on three other charges including the most serious charges that would have sent him to prison for life.  Seema Iyer and her special guest, Court TV anchor Ted Rowlands, will break down what the split decision means, how much time Harvey Weinstein could spend in prison and the impact this verdict could have on the indictment Weinstein has yet to face in Los Angeles.  For the latest updates and full trial coverage, watch Court TV.   Harvey Weinstein Trial

n April of 2018 Harvey Weinstein hired Juda Englemayer of the PR firm Herald PR to represent him during his legal battle.  Seema Iyer sits down with Juda, who has been by Harvey’s side throughout the entire trial, to find out what it’s like inside Harvey’s legal team and how the movie mogul is navigating the impact of the accusations on his career and relationships.

Seema Iyer is in New York City where the prosecution has just rested its case in chief against Harvey Weinstein.  She’ll update us on the State’s final witness– actress/model Lauren Young – who claims Weinstein sexually assaulted her in an LA hotel in 2013. And the return of another of Weinstein’s accusers – Tarale Wulff – who testified earlier in the trial but had to be recalled in order to finish her cross examination.   Harvey Weinstein Trial

Two weeks into the Harvey Weinstein Rape Trial and it is proving to be as dramatic as anticipated.  Our host Seema Iyer is in New York with the Court TV field team to be as close to the trial as possible. She’ll give us her take on the testimony so far and the controversial revelations no one saw coming.  Seema also spends time with Court TV correspondents Julia Jenae and Chanley Painter, who are inside the courtroom every day, to get their perspective on the trial thus far.  For the latest updates and full trial coverage, watch Court TV.   Harvey Weinstein Trial

When the New York Times published an expose on the alleged predatory sexual behavior of Harvey Weinstein, it inspired women around the world to come forward and share their stories of encounters with the powerful movie mogul. One of the first of those accusers was television journalist Lauren Sivan, who in 2007, after working late one evening, met up with a group of friends in New York City and ran into Harvey Weinstein - an encounter she would not soon forget. Seema Iyer sat down with Lauren for an in-depth interview to hear her full story, get her take on why it took so long for the story to break and the impact that doing so has had on her life and career.

It's all Jussie all the time. It's understandable, given how everyone but twelve people on earth believe that he's guilty. Maybe he'll be like Al Capone and get busted for something completely unrelated, like mail fraud. The USPS doesn't mess around. You know who does mess around is God, who once promised not to flood the planet ever again. Apparently he can't be trusted.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
