Critical Resources targets more gold opportunity in Suriname

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Critical Resources Ltd managing director Tim Wither talked with Proactive about the company's exclusive rights to acquire a 90% interest in the Greenstars Gold Project in Suriname, adding a second potential gold project to its emerging position in the country. Wither said Greenstars covers around 35 square kilometres and, together with the previously announced project, could give Critical Resources interests across just under 200 square kilometres of granted mining rights, subject to completion of the transactions. He highlighted Suriname's position within the Guiana Shield and its established gold mining industry, while noting that the region has seen comparatively limited modern systematic exploration. Greenstars is located around 35 kilometres from Zijin Mining's Rosebel gold operation. Wither said historical and active small-scale alluvial gold workings provide Critical Resources with a practical starting point for exploration. “This really gives investors the first mover advantage,” he said. The existing workings expose parts of the weathering profile, which Wither said should allow exploration teams to begin mapping and sampling quickly. The company expects its initial work to include due diligence and first-pass sampling, followed potentially by auger work and trenching as it develops exploration targets. Wither said the strategy would follow a conventional exploration pathway, with more advanced work dependent on results generated during the initial programs. He also highlighted the potential significance of Critical Resources providing ASX investors with direct exposure to gold exploration in Suriname as the company builds its position in the country.

In de geschiedenis van de trans-Atlantische slavernij zijn miljoenen tot slaafgemaakte Afrikanen gedwongen naar de Amerika's afgevoerd. Voor veel nazaten is de zoektocht naar hun oorsprong daardoor een reis met grote blinde vlekken: namen raakten verloren, familieverbanden werden doorgesneden en archieven vertellen lang niet altijd het volledige verhaal of slechts vanuit een beperkt perspectief. Dna-onderzoek kan in die zoektocht nieuwe aanwijzingen geven. Als een extra sleutel tot herinnering, verwantschap en herstel van geschiedenis.In gesprek met geneticus dr. Arwin Ralf gaat journalist Stuart Kensenhuis precies in op die centrale vraag: wat kan genetisch onderzoek ons leren over afkomst, identiteit en verbondenheid met Afrika? En waar liggen juist de grenzen van wat dna kan onthullen? Zeker is dat dr.

‘Wij zijn hier omdat jullie daar waren.' De Nederlandse geschiedenis van kolonisatie is onlosmakelijk verbonden met het Nederland van nu. Aan de hand van de geschiedenis van Hindostaanse contractarbeiders gaan we in gesprek over hoe ons nationale verhaal verandert als we ons koloniale verleden en onze migratiegeschiedenis serieus nemen.Wie mag zich eigenlijk echt ‘Nederlander' noemen? Waar de ene migrantengemeenschap tot zondebok wordt gemaakt, gaan andere groepen schijnbaar geruisloos in de massa op. Met Hindostanen, een van de grootste Surinaams-Nederlandse gemeenschappen in ons land, gebeurde dat laatste. Daardoor bleef een belangrijk deel van onze Nederlandse geschiedenis lang ongehoord: hoe contractarbeiders na de afschaffing van de slavernij werden uitgebuit op de plantages in Suriname. Ragna Indra Heidweiller beschrijft deze geschiedenis in haar boek Wij zijn hier door jullie (De Correspondent). Tijdens deze avond gaan we in gesprek over die geschiedenis, hoe ons nationale verhaal verandert als we het koloniale verleden en de migratiegeschiedenis serieus meenemen en wie we zien als ‘echte Nederlanders' in een land dat door en door een migratieland is.Over de sprekersRagna Indra Heidweiller schrijft over identiteit, inclusie en relaties.

In this episode we speak to Colin Padget, President and CEO of Founders Metals, a gold exploration company advancing the Antino Gold Project in Suriname.   Colin is a geologist with a strong business background and has helped lead the team through an impressive period of exploration success at Antino, with 11 discoveries identified across the property to date.   We discuss the story behind Antino, its wider district-scale potential, the growing relationship with Gold Fields, Colin's transition into the CEO role, and why Suriname and the wider Guiana Shield could represent one of the more exciting underexplored gold regions globally. KEY TAKEAWAYS District-Scale Discovery Engine: Founders Metals has demonstrated vast mineralization potential across its 100,000-plus hectare land package at the Antino Gold Project in Suriname, notching 11 discoveries to date. Tier-1 Mining Validation: Major gold producer Gold Fields made a cumulative investment of roughly $100 million USD to secure a 19.9% stake in Founders Metals, offering both strong market validation and valuable technical collaboration. Blending Exploration with Business Acumen: Transitioning from geologist to CEO requires building a balanced technical team and knowing when to steer exploration toward mineable resources rather than open-ended science experiments. Modern Tech Pierces the Jungle Cover: Implementing high-resolution LiDAR and modern geophysics has revolutionized exploration through dense jungle canopy, allowing Founders to identify historic workings and uncover structural trends missed by previous operators. BEST MOMENTS "It feels a bit cliché when you're an exploration company in the Guiana Shield... everyone has one of those slides in their deck where it shows West Africa and the Guiana Shield and that the continents used to be together... but it really was that."  "There's a validation piece that comes with having a major gold miner... take that level of interest in the company... They didn't invest in us to take it over and tell us what to do; they've been happy with what we've been doing."  "The number one thing is knowing, as a project geologist running a program, when does it stop being about the growth of a future resource or something that's mineable, and when does it turn into a science experiment?"  "Hands down, just being able to see through that cover... LiDAR is able to see through it down to the centimeter scale... We can see where there's been something dug 50 years ago, and take that as something worth going to check up on."

Interview with Justin van der Toorn, President and CEO, Greenheart Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/greenheart-gold-tsxvghrt-multi-asset-drill-program-drives-newsflow-in-2026-9693Recording date: 3rd September 2026Greenheart Gold Inc. (TSXV:GHRT; OTCQX:GHRTF) is an exploration company built on the technical legacy of Reunion Gold, the team credited with discovering and delineating the multi-million-ounce Oko West deposit in Guyana. That background shapes the company's current strategy in the Guiana Shield, a gold-prospective but still relatively underexplored terrain spanning Guyana and Suriname: move quickly from geochemical sampling through trenching to drilling, and run several projects in parallel rather than concentrating resources on a single target.Greenheart currently has three active projects in Suriname. Tosso Creek, the subject of this interview, is the newest and most remote, comprising four target areas: Maconia, Swalanga, Walaba and Sevil. A 2,000-metre diamond drilling programme has now commenced at Walaba, following up broad trench intervals including 52.0 m at 0.77 g/t Au and a higher-grade zone of 7.0 m at 4.57 g/t Au. Drilling at the recently identified Swalanga target, roughly 1 km east, is planned to follow; trenching there has already returned 56.0 m at 0.9 g/t Au. CEO Justin van der Toorn described the current drilling as a first test of whether near-surface mineralisation continues at depth, and what structural or lithological controls govern the higher-grade zones observed within the broader mineralised envelope.The company's two more advanced Suriname projects, Igab and Majorodam, sit closer to existing regional operations and require a lower threshold of discovery to justify continued work, according to management. At Igab, a maiden drill programme returned 7.0 m at 5.82 g/t Au at the Koela target, and the company is now integrating those results with core relogging and structural mapping ahead of a planned drill test at the Cannibal Creek target. At Majorodam, a 160-hole, 11,748-metre RC programme is largely complete, though roughly 35% of assay results remain outstanding due to laboratory delays in Paramaribo; a full project review is planned once all results are received.Management cited a cash position of approximately $85 million following the company's recent financing, which it says supports simultaneous drill programmes across all three projects without requiring near-term additional capital. Van der Toorn was explicit that this comes with a discipline requirement: avoiding over-drilling any single project ahead of its stage of geological understanding, and ensuring capital committed to the ground translates directly into results.For investors, the near-term catalysts are concrete and sequential: assay results from the first Tosso Creek holes, the outstanding Majorodam RC results, and the refined targeting expected from Igab's ongoing core relogging and structural work. None of the three projects yet carries a defined mineral resource, and reported intervals are sampling lengths rather than true widths, so the eventual investment case depends on converting today's broad, low-grade trench and drill intercepts into demonstrated depth and grade continuity. Suriname's wet season and reliance on Paramaribo-based assay laboratories are recurring, if manageable, sources of scheduling and reporting delay across all three projects.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/greenheart-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

Como o ouro venezuelano entrou na diplomacia dos Estados Unidos

Washington começa a desmontar, de forma calculada, as sanções sobre o ouro venezuelano, mas a jogada vai além da economia. Ao liberar o comércio de minerais estratégicos, os EUA miram não só recursos valiosos, mas também influência sobre a Amazônia e o Escudo das Guianas. A abertura, porém, é seletiva, reversível e chega antes que Caracas consiga controlar a extração ilegal, que mistura crime organizado, grupos armados e rotas clandestinas. Thiago de Aragão, analista político Sanções costumam ser mais sinceras quando começam a ser desmontadas. A ordem das exceções diz muito sobre o que Washington realmente quer. Na Venezuela, o petróleo veio primeiro. Era previsível. Agora, os Estados Unidos começam a montar uma arquitetura parecida para o ouro, os minerais e o carvão. O subsolo venezuelano entrou, de vez, na diplomacia de Washington. Isso não encerra as sanções. Longe disso. A abertura é controlada, seletiva e, sobretudo, reversível. Ainda assim, muda o lugar da Venezuela no cálculo norte-americano: o país deixou de ser visto somente como um problema político ou uma reserva petrolífera e passou a ocupar espaço na disputa por recursos estratégicos, cadeias de suprimento e influência sobre a Amazônia e o Escudo das Guianas. O desenho começou em 6 de março, quando o Escritório de Controle de Ativos Estrangeiros do Departamento do Tesouro dos Estados Unidos (OFAC) publicou a Licença Geral 51, autorizando determinadas atividades relacionadas ao ouro de origem venezuelana. Três semanas depois, Washington ampliou a autorização para outros minerais, permitiu o fornecimento de alguns bens e serviços ao setor e abriu a possibilidade de negociar contratos condicionais de investimento. Em 2 de setembro, o OFAC mexeu novamente nessa estrutura. As licenças 51D, 54C e 55A passaram a incluir expressamente carvão, minerais e ouro, assim como serviços e negociações ligadas a investimentos futuros. A linguagem continua estreita de propósito: Washington autoriza “determinadas atividades”, não o comércio inteiro, e mantém de pé o restante do regime de sanções. A Venezuela não foi normalizada. Está sendo religada a circuitos econômicos escolhidos pelos Estados Unidos, tomada por tomada. A produção venezuelana não nasce de um setor convencional, com empresas transparentes, rastreabilidade confiável e uma autoridade regulatória que chegue aonde o mapa oficial diz que ela chega. Durante anos, o Arco Mineiro do Orinoco virou uma economia paralela. Ali se cruzam autoridades políticas, oficiais militares, grupos armados, atravessadores e organizações criminosas, cada qual com seu pedaço da mina, da estrada ou do silêncio. O metal ganhou peso quando o colapso do petróleo secou as divisas. E trouxe uma vantagem nada desprezível para quem prefere operar nas sombras: pode ser carregado em pequenas quantidades, fundido, misturado e reexportado com documentos novos. Uma barra não conta de qual mina saiu. Muito menos quem trabalhou nela ou qual território indígena ficou para trás. Essa amnésia cabe no bolso A história da região, aliás, já passou por isso. Quando o ouro foi descoberto no território disputado entre a Venezuela e a Guiana Britânica, Londres tentou ampliar sua presença sobre a área. A disputa escalou até a crise de 1895, quando o secretário de Estado Richard Olney invocou a Doutrina Monroe e pressionou o Reino Unido a aceitar arbitragem. Mais de um século depois, o ouro volta a puxar Washington para o Escudo das Guianas, agora pela porta das sanções, não pela linha de fronteira. O novo governo venezuelano tenta recuperar o comando dessa economia. Em abril, Caracas aprovou uma legislação para atrair capital estrangeiro ao setor mineral. Em junho, enviou forças para Las Claritas, no estado de Bolívar, uma das principais áreas de mineração ilegal do país. Segundo a Reuters, a operação ocorreu enquanto o governo procurava reabrir um setor praticamente fechado ao investidor estrangeiro desde as nacionalizações iniciadas durante o governo de Hugo Chávez. Oficialmente, é uma ofensiva contra o crime organizado. Economicamente, a lógica é outra e bastante simples: ninguém oferece uma concessão séria sobre um território que não controla. Antes de atrair investidores, Caracas precisa provar que manda nas minas, nas estradas e nas rotas de exportação. A região antes tolerada como fonte informal de renda agora precisa virar ativo negociável. Washington quer criar canais legais para o ouro venezuelano antes que a Venezuela tenha mostrado capacidade de separar produção formal, extração ilegal e interesses de atores sancionados. A licença chega antes da rastreabilidade. O mercado, sabemos, não costuma esperar a papelada alcançar a realidade. Um estudo publicado em março pela Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime identificou uma inversão nas rotas do ouro ilegal da Amazônia. O metal já não sai somente da Venezuela. Ouro extraído no Brasil e na Guiana passou a entrar em território venezuelano, enquanto Boa Vista se consolidou como centro logístico de fluxos alimentados por rodovias, aeronaves pequenas, pistas clandestinas e fronteiras onde a presença estatal oscila entre escassa e decorativa. Investigadores brasileiros chegaram a conclusão semelhante. Segundo o jornal Folha de S.Paulo, o aumento da fiscalização no Brasil empurrou redes criminosas para Venezuela, Guiana e Suriname. O ouro retirado ilegalmente de terras indígenas cruza a fronteira, ganha novos documentos e pode reaparecer no mercado internacional com uma biografia perfeitamente limpa. Para o Brasil, destruir pistas e equipamentos dentro do território nacional resolve uma parte visível do problema. A rede aprende rápido. Quando a repressão aperta de um lado, ela muda a rota, o comprador e o papel que acompanha o metal. A fronteira não interrompe o negócio; apenas encarece a travessia. Para a França, tudo isso está bem mais perto do que parece. A Guiana Francesa convive há décadas com uma economia ilegal do ouro conectada ao Brasil e ao Suriname. Um estudo da Fondation pour la Recherche Stratégique estimou em cerca de € 70 milhões por ano o custo das operações francesas de repressão, enquanto as perdas econômicas associadas à mineração ilegal superariam € 500 milhões. Essas redes teriam capacidade para ocultar ou lavar aproximadamente dez toneladas de ouro por ano. Caiena está na Amazônia. Bruxelas também, embora nem sempre se lembre disso. A Guiana Francesa é a fronteira amazônica da União Europeia e uma linha de contato direta entre o mercado europeu, as redes criminosas brasileiras e as economias informais do Escudo das Guianas. O ouro que atravessa essa geografia não respeita as categorias confortáveis de política externa. Ele mistura segurança, meio ambiente, crime organizado, sanções e disputa por recursos numa mesma barra. A abertura norte-americana pode atrair investimento, tecnologia e algum grau de transparência para a mineração venezuelana. Pode ainda dar a Caracas um incentivo para substituir grupos armados por operadores formais e voltar a exercer autoridade em áreas abandonadas pelo Estado. Esse é o cenário otimista. O outro é menos elegante. Se a demanda legal crescer antes que existam mecanismos confiáveis de rastreabilidade, o novo mercado autorizado poderá absorver ouro extraído ilegalmente no Brasil, na Guiana ou na própria Venezuela. A flexibilização não desmontaria a economia criminosa. Daria a ela uma porta nova, com placa oficial e acesso ao sistema financeiro internacional. A pergunta, portanto, não é se o ouro venezuelano pode voltar ao mercado. É outra: quem o extraiu, quem controlou o caminho e quantas vezes sua origem foi reescrita até a exportação? Washington está abrindo uma rota legal para os minerais venezuelanos. O ouro ilegal já sabe viajar.

Vijftig jaar geleden werd Suriname onafhankelijk. Surinaamse leerlingen leren nog altijd veel over Nederland; Nederlandse leerlingen nauwelijks iets over Suriname. Dat eenzijdige kennisverkeer is geen detail, het bepaalt hoe we ons tot elkaar verhouden. In deze podcast bezoekt Jan Jaap Hubeek Hanna Mitra Rambaran, docent bestuurskunde aan de Haagse Hogeschool. Binnen de minor 'Racisme en discriminatie op de werkvloer en in de samenleving' geeft zij les over het koloniale verleden en de doorwerking daarvan.Toen ze begon, stuitte ze op een hardnekkig feit: bruikbaar lesmateriaal was er niet. Dus deed ze in een vakantie zelf het onderzoek en schreef ze haar eigen syllabus, met een tijdlijn van het Haags Historisch Museum.Die tijdlijn lopen we langs. Jan Pieterszoon Coen en de Banda-eilanden, waar een hele bevolking werd uitgeroeid om de handel in nootmuskaat. Het contractarbeidersmodel dat al werd geoefend vóór de slavernij was afgeschaft. De tien jaar staatstoezicht daarna, waarin niet de vrijgemaakten maar de plantagehouders werden gecompenseerd. En de opstand op plantage Mariënburg in 1902, waar vierentwintig mannen werden doodgeschoten en met ongebluste kalk in een massagraf verdwenen - een plantage van de Nederlandsche Handel-Maatschappij, de voorloper van ABN AMRO."Dat zijn verhalen die heb je nooit hoorde op school."Maar het gesprek gaat over meer dan de feiten. Over wat het van een docent vraagt om dit onderwerp op de agenda te krijgen én te houden. Over studenten die boos weglopen, en over studenten bij wie het landt zodra ze zien wie er in een Gouden Eeuw-schilderij op de laagste plek staat. Over de wrange constatering dat het koloniaal verleden pas nu in de onderwijsvisie verschijnt - drie jaar nadat zij het bouwde.En over de vraag wie zich dit denken kan veroorloven. Mitra Rambaran werkte in Suriname bij de medische zending, in het binnenland."In Suriname is men bezig met overleven. Als je het goed hebt in je leven, ga je over dit soort dingen nadenken."Haar boodschap aan wie iets met dit thema wil: je hoeft het niet alleen te doen. Ga in gesprek met wie er al mee bezig is, gebruik hun materiaal én noem hun naam. En gevraagd waar ze over vijf jaar hoopt te staan: als gastspreker voor de klas.Genoemd in deze afleveringStaat en slavernij.

In global health, control means keeping a disease in check and accepting that some cases will remain. Zero is a different proposition altogether: it demands that every village, every community and every child is equally worth reaching. Only smallpox has ever been eradicated, and the diseases closest to that line are held back by conflict, funding pressure and fading public memory. So what does it take to lead an effort all the way to zero? How is commitment sustained across decades and changing governments? And what happens the day after certification, when the vector remains and imported cases still arrive?In this episode, host Garry Aslanyan explores these questions with two guests who bring deeply complementary perspectives. Dr Jamal Ahmed is WHO Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office Director for Polio Eradication and former Chair of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative's Strategy Committee, and has spent his career in polio eradication, from surveillance and laboratory systems to programme implementation. And joining him is Dr Stephen Vreden, Chair of the Committee for the Prevention of Re-establishment of Malaria in Suriname. The country was certified malaria-free by WHO in June 2025, the first country in the Amazon region to reach that milestone.Related episode documents, transcripts and other information can be found on our website.Subscribe to the Global Health Matters podcast newsletter.  Follow us for updates:@TDRnews on XTDR on LinkedIn@ghm_podcast on Instagram@ghm-podcast.bsky.social on Bluesky Disclaimer: The views, information, or opinions expressed during the Global Health Matters podcast series are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of TDR or the World Health Organization.  All content © 2026 Global Health Matters.

On 4 August 1941, shovel operators in the Moengo bauxite mine in the then-Dutch colony of Suriname went on strike. The walkout of mostly Javanese and Creole workers was swiftly followed by mill, shipping and tow boat crews. They were soon all offered substantial pay increases, and the strikes ended. Mill workers also had their working days reduced from 12 to eight hours per day.Powerhouse workers were then given a pay increase without a strike, and workers in the electric shop threatened to strike and were given pay increases of 30 to 40%.Workers were demanding pay increases because the cost of living had gone up with the background of World War II. And they would strike again a few months later.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/7953/moengo-miners-strikeOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

(02:48) De afgelopen weken liepen de spanningen rond asielopvang opnieuw hoog op. In Loosdrecht, IJsselstein en andere plaatsen escaleerden protesten tegen de komst van azc's tot rellen, en brandstichting. Het leidde in de Tweede Kamer deze week tot een fel debat over het normaliseren van politiek geweld in de samenleving. Daarbij ging het niet alleen over de relschoppers zelf, maar ook over de vraag hoe politici, media en bestuurders reageren op dit soort uitbarstingen.    Te gast is Nikki Sterkenburg, journalist en onderzoeker van radicaal- en extreemrechts in Nederland.  (14:47) Mei 1926, een boulevard in Parijs. Een man stapt af op een voorbijganger en vraagt in het Oekraïens: bent u Petljoera? De ander zwijgt en tilt zijn wandelstok op. Het is bevestiging genoeg. De man trekt een revolver en schiet. Zo eindigt het leven van Symon Petljoera, ooit de leider van een Oekraïense staat die maar heel even onafhankelijk was. Deze week was de moord op Petljoera precies honderd jaar geleden, maar de man die een eeuw terug werd doodgeschoten is opvallend levend in de politiek van nu.  We gaan erover in gesprek met Roman Nesterenco, slavist en literair vertaler. Geboren in Oekraïne, en toevallig ook een zelfverklaarde geschiedenis-nerd.  (28:19) Schiermonnikoog wil van zijn zwerfkatten af. Met behulp van drones zullen ze worden gevangen en uitgezet op het vasteland, werd deze week bekend. Een tamelijk humane bestrijdingsmethode, als je het vergelijkt met de rest van de provincie Friesland, waar jagers zwerfkatten tot op de dag van vandaag mogen afschieten.    Des te groter is het contrast met de geschiedenis, waar ‘katknuppelen' een kermisspel en ‘kattenmeppen' een beroep was. Om te vertellen over heden en verleden van de zwerfkat-mensrelaties is te gast Maarten Reesink, docent Dier-Mens Studies aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam en auteur van Planeet Poes.  (43:22) Elke week bespreken we historische tips met afwisselend Nadia Bouras, Wim Berkelaar, Bart Funnekotter, Sanne Frequin, en Fresco Sam-Sin. Deze week is de beurt aan Fresco Sam-Sin. Hij bespreekt twee boeken en een tentoonstelling:  Naar Mekka, De hadj in zeven eeuwen reisverslagen – Richard van Leeuwen  Islamic China, An Asian History - Rian Thum  APOCALYPS, VREES EN HOOP (https://www.huisvanhetboek.nl/zien-doen-leren/tentoonstellingen/apocalyps-vrees-en-hoop) - Huis van het boek  (01:00:34) Iets meer dan 150 jaar geleden, op 5 juni 1873, meert in Paramaribo het zeilschip Lalla Rookh aan. Aan boord: de eerste Hindostaanse immigranten van Suriname, veelal contractarbeiders uit Brits-Indië. Het is het begin van een migratie die nog ruim 50 jaar zou doorgaan: in totaal 64 schepen, met meer dan 34.000 mensen aan boord.     Hun nakomelingen wonen vandaag voor een groot deel in Nederland, maar toch is het verhaal achter deze migratie voor veel Nederlanders én Surinamers een blinde vlek. Daarover gaan we in gesprek met Ragna Indra Heidweiller, journalist en schrijver van het boek Wij zijn hier door jullie, deze maand verschenen bij De Correspondent. Een zoektocht naar haar eigen voormoeders, en naareen geschiedenis die in haar familie nooit werd verteld.    (01:13:44) OVT Doc: Radio op grootse hoogte  Helikopters, hoogwerkers en zakken met geld. In de jaren '70 en '80 kon alles bij de VPRO Radio. Tenminste: dat is wat makers Tom Hofland en Pascal van Hulst in de wandelgangen hoorden. Als kinderen van de jaren '90, en makers van nu, werden ze stikjaloers op die zogenaamde gouden jaren. Maar was het toen echt alle dagen feest?  Naar aanleiding van het 100-jarig bestaan van de VPRO maakten Tom en Pascal een documentaire over de roemruchte VPRO-radiogeschiedenis. Over de creativiteit, de gekte én de grenzen die daarbij werden overschreden.  Meer info: https://www.vpro.nl/ovt/artikelen/ovt-31-mei-2026 (https://www.vpro.nl/ovt/artikelen/ovt-31-mei-2026)

What does it cost to defend the Amazon? Not in dollars or hectares—but years spent in exile, family members taken in the night, court rulings that win on paper and go unenforced for nearly two decades. This episode of Rewilding Amazonia follows five people who have dedicated their lives to defending the Amazon. Daniel Aristizábal, PIACI Process Director at the Amazon Conservation Team, works to protect indigenous communities that have chosen isolation from the outside world—and explains how they are now sitting on top of some of the most coveted mineral deposits on the continent. Cristina Vollmer Burelli, founder of SOSOrinoco, documents Venezuela's state-sponsored illegal mining from exile—exposing how a government became the architect of its own people's destruction. Hugo Jabini, Goldman Prize-winning Saamaka-Maroon leader from Suriname, tells the story of how his people fled slavery in 1690, built 74 communities across 1.4 million hectares of tropical forest, won a landmark ruling in the 2000s after years of legal battles—and are still waiting for full compliance 19 years later.  Cesar Carrasco, Ese'eja lodge manager at Rainforest Expeditions in the Peruvian Amazon, survived the gold mines at 17 and spent three decades helping his community build an economic foundation that didn't depend on extraction. The episode closes with Rosa Espinoza—the chemical biologist and science communicator who grew up steeped in traditional ecological knowledge—and her belief that the deepest form of conservation is learning to live beautifully alongside nature.

En Haïti, la situation reste dramatique à Cité Soleil dix jours après de violents affrontements entre gangs rivaux qui ont fait des dizaines de morts et provoqué la fuite de plus de 10 000 habitants, selon l'Organisation internationale des migrations. De nombreuses familles, dont les maisons ont parfois été incendiées, vivent toujours dans des centres d'accueil surpeuplés à Delmas, Tabarre et dans d'autres secteurs de la capitale. Selon Pierre Fritznel, responsable de l'organisation de défense des droits humains Combite pour la paix et le développement, les conditions de sécurité ne permettent toujours pas aux déplacés de regagner leur quartier. Cette nouvelle flambée de violence relance aussi les critiques contre un État quasiment absent de Cité Soleil depuis les attaques de gangs contre des institutions publiques en 2020. Alors que plusieurs centaines de soldats tchadiens ont récemment été déployés dans le cadre de la force multinationale de soutien à la police haïtienne, beaucoup d'Haïtiens jugent la réponse internationale et gouvernementale trop lente face à l'urgence sécuritaire.

This episode hosts John Goedschalk to examine the relationship between environmental sustainability, economic development, and long-term climate resilience in the Amazon rainforest and the Guiana Shield. The conversation explores why the forests of Suriname are disproportionately important to global climate stability, regional rainfall systems, and food production across South America. Drawing on the science behind the “Flying Rivers” system, the discussion explains how rainforest evapotranspiration helps generate and transport moisture across the continent, and why large-scale deforestation could trigger ecosystem collapse, water scarcity, and agricultural disruption far beyond the Amazon itself. The episode also examines the environmental and socioeconomic risks associated with deforestation, illegal gold mining, agricultural expansion, and weak land governance, particularly in regions where communities face poverty, limited education, and few economic alternatives.The episode further explores the intersection of environmental governance, state capacity, and international economic incentives. We discuss how weak institutions, limited enforcement capacity, and poor land-use planning contribute to illegal mining, mercury contamination, and long-term ecological degradation in rainforest regions. The conversation also examines the role of international demand for commodities such as gold, timber, and agricultural products, alongside broader debates within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change around carbon markets, sequestration, and compensation for maintaining standing forests. A central theme throughout the episode is the argument that the perceived trade-off between economic growth and environmental preservation is often false, particularly when sustainable industries, indigenous stewardship, regenerative sourcing, and nature-based economic models are properly supported. The discussion also highlights the role of indigenous and tribal communities in protecting the Amazon rainforest, the pressures these communities face, and the geopolitical and economic dynamics shaping the future of one of the world's most critical ecological systems.John Goedschalk is a climate economist, sustainability advocate, and former climate negotiator for Suriname. He previously served as Executive Director of Conservation International Suriname and currently advises on climate and biodiversity finance. His work focuses on sustainable economic development, rainforest conservation, carbon finance, and creating commercial models that support standing forests and indigenous communities while reducing pressure from extractive industries.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

“Not to confuse journalism with newspapers. Newspapers are one set of communication methods. But it's certainly not the only one. If they have the right mindset, and that's what I try to get them to do, there are so many more opportunities. You can go out and do a podcast, or you can do a newsletter. You can't think of it as I need to work at The New York Times. You have to think of it as I need — I need — to tell stories, and I've got this curiosity.”Anthony DePalma is a journalist and professor at Columbia University. He's the author of several books, his latest being On This Ground: Hardship and Hope at the Toughest Prep School in America. It's published by Mariner Books.He spent 22 years as a reporter for The New York Times, and another 8 as a stringer for them, so, let's do the math … that's 30 years. He reported a lot on Mexico and Cuba, as well as Albania, Guyana, and Suriname.

When a 2023 club brawl ended in a Freetown, Sierra Leone parking lot shooting, cops and reporters pointed the finger at “Omar Shariff,” a portly Turkish millionaire who'd spent much of the past six months throwing cash about at the city's casinos and top-end restaurants. But Shariff wasn't Turkish, and he wasn't just any businessman. And as information about the strange man leaked over the coming year, officials in Africa and Europe began to realize that he was in fact one of the Netherlands' biggest cocaine kingpins, one who'd been on the run from authorities for years — and whose commitment to cartel violence had extended to the construction of a shipping-container torture center. What happened next was a lesson in how organized criminals evade justice by corrupting power. And how cocaine traffickers, from Suriname to Sierra Leone, have taken over the world.
