This episode of the EY Sustainability Matters podcast is a rare opportunity to hear from two global thought leaders who have shaped sustainability strategies at the highest levels of business and international development, about the need for a move toward a regenerative economy, and the challenges and opportunities that will present.  Nadia Woodhouse from the EY New Economy Unit (NEU) welcomes two distinguished thinkers: Sir Noel Quinn, former Chief Executive of HSBC, and Usha Rao-Monari, former Under-Secretary General of the United Nations Development Programme and member of the EY New Economy Unit Advisory Council. Both guests bring a wealth of experience from the worlds of global finance, development and industry, and currently serve as independent directors on the board of Fortescue, a global metal mining company at the forefront of commercial decarbonization.   The conversation dives deep into the challenges and opportunities of building a regenerative economy. Noel shares insights from his tenure at HSBC, emphasizing the importance of economic case-making, transparency in target setting and overcoming organizational fear in driving change. Usha expands the discussion to the global scale, highlighting the push for better data, risk mitigation, and collaboration between public and private sectors — especially in emerging markets.   Together, they explore the roles of policy, finance and innovation in accelerating the transition to a sustainable future, offering practical insights for leaders navigating the complexities of climate action and systemic transformation.  Read more about the EY New Economy Unit here.

Au Cameroun, le ministre d'État Bello Bouba Maïgari a fait sensation le 28 juin 2025, quand il a démissionné du gouvernement et annoncé sa candidature contre Paul Biya à la présidentielle du 12 octobre. En effet, son parti, l'Union nationale pour la démocratie et le progrès (UNDP), est un poids lourd dans le pays. Mais quelles sont ses chances de gagner si l'opposition reste divisée ? Aujourd'hui, le candidat Bello Bouba annonce qu'il « peut arriver à une entente » avec le candidat Tchiroma Bakary. En ligne de Yaoundé, il répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Si vous êtes élu, quelles seront vos deux priorités ?   Bello Bouba Maïgari : Mes priorités, si je suis élu, ce sera d'abord pour la formation d'un gouvernement de large union. Parce qu'il faudra que nous nous attaquions aux problèmes essentiels de notre pays, à savoir la protection de l'unité nationale, son renforcement notamment dans les régions anglophones, mais également les problèmes de sécurité dans d'autres régions du Cameroun, notamment l'Extrême Nord.   Alors, vous parlez de la très grave crise anglophone au Nord-Ouest et au Sud-Ouest. Beaucoup de Camerounais, y compris des candidats, prônent le retour au fédéralisme. Qu'en pensez-vous ?   Aucun sujet ne sera tabou. D'abord, pour qu'il y ait une vraie inclusivité au Dialogue national inclusif que nous allons convoquer dans les six premiers mois de notre mandat, nous parlerons même aux leaders politiques des régions aujourd'hui troublées par cette crise anglophone, et nous envisageons de libérer ceux d'entre eux qui veulent travailler avec nous pour aboutir à un large consensus.   Votre fief, c'est le nord du pays, mais comme vous le savez, il ne suffit pas de gagner au nord. Est-ce que vous avez la stature nationale pour être élu président ?   Qui peut dénier à l'UNDP une implantation nationale ? Quel autre parti au Cameroun peut nous dénier cette bonne implantation que nous avons à travers l'ensemble des dix régions ?   Oui, mais tout de même, Monsieur le Premier Ministre, votre parti UNDP est pour l'instant très loin derrière le parti au pouvoir RDPC. Qu'est-ce que vous comptez faire d'ici au 12 octobre pour combler ce retard ?   D'abord, ce que vous appelez « très loin derrière le parti » au pouvoir, nous pensons que c'est parce que les conditions de transparence, de liberté et d'organisation des élections dans notre pays ne sont pas remplies. Nous travaillons pour cela et, d'ici à la fin du premier trimestre de 2026, vous verrez un renforcement de la représentation de l'UNDP dans toutes les assemblées de notre pays.   Mais pourquoi la fraude s'arrêterait-elle au Cameroun ?   Parce que d'abord, nous pensons, dans nos contacts avec les candidats et les anciens candidats, renforcer la collaboration entre nous pour assurer la vérité des urnes par une présence massive et digne des partis de l'opposition dans tous les bureaux de vote, dans toutes les commissions départementales où se passera le décompte des voix.   Tout récemment, il y a quelques jours, l'opposant Maurice Kamto, qui n'a pas le droit de se présenter et qui n'a pas encore donné de consigne de vote, vous a invité, Issa Tchiroma et vous-même qui êtes tous deux originaires du nord du pays, à vous entendre pour fusionner vos deux candidatures, qu'est-ce que vous en pensez ?   C'est pour cela que, après avoir écouté non seulement l'appel du professeur Kamto, mais aussi d'autres responsables de partis, nous avons relancé cette demande de rencontre entre nous pour que nous puissions nous entendre.   Une rencontre entre Tchiroma et vous ?   Une rencontre entre, oui, Monsieur Tchiroma, mais également avec d'autres candidats aussi. Les choses sont en train d'être explorées et nous n'avons pas perdu l'espoir qu'elles aboutiront à un consensus acceptable, non pas entre nous seuls, mais également à qui répondra à l'attente de beaucoup de Camerounais.   Et vous pourriez arriver à fusionner vos deux candidatures ?  Nous pourrons arriver, je l'espère, à trouver la solution que beaucoup attendent. C'est-à-dire une entente entre nous. C'est ma détermination pour laquelle je veux travailler.   Et que répondez-vous à ceux qui disent, comme le candidat Cabral Libii, qu'il faut renouveler la classe politique camerounaise et que les nonagénaires, comme Paul Biya, et les septuagénaires, comme Issa Tchiroma et vous-même, devraient peut-être laisser la place aux jeunes ?  C'est son opinion, mais la loi permet encore qu'un candidat de cet âge-là puisse se présenter. Je n'ai aucun commentaire à ce sujet.

International development has come to an end, according to some economists. Be it the sudden closure of USAID earlier this year, the shift of EU and NATO states to defence spending, or the populist inspired interest in isolationism, the inclination to fund others is diminishing.However, development is not just about foreign aid: it is also about allocating the means to improve the one that benefits all. Whether the national eradication of disease or international drives towards better governance and prosperity, the core idea is not charity. So, what actually is development? There can be no better person to explain and explore the wide and complex world of development and its core international function than Susan Brown, United Nations Assistant Secretary General at the UN Development Programme (UNDP) and head of its advocacy efforts. A woman with incredible experience in the international world, she brings in-depth knowledge, common sense and a lot of wit to the core needs of the world.This episode was recorded 17 September 2025MentionsUNDPAdam Tooze, The End of DevelopmentWomen not rescued in Afghanistan earthquakeChaptersCurrent challenges facing the UNUnderstanding development and differentiating it from humanitarian aidUNDP's budget and funding sourcesThe future of UNDP and global developmentEngaging corporates in developmentFollowSusan Brown UNDP website & X/TwitterInstagram @women_leaders_podcastWatch this episode on our YouTube channelEuropean Leadership Network Twitter LinkedIn Facebook, websiteIlana Bet-ElCreditsProduction: Florence FerrandoMusic: Let Good Times Roll, RA from #Uppbeat License code: ZXIIIJUU2ISPZIJTContribute to the conversation with a comment & a 5-⭐️Reach us on our Instagram and follow for updates @women_leaders_podcastWatch now our episode on Youtube Hosted on Acast.

Jaridani leo jaridani tunaangazia haki ya elimu kwa wasichana na wanawake nchini Afghanistan, na kuzorota kwa huduma za afya katika ukanda wa Gaza. Pia tunakwenda nchini Zambia kumulika mradi wa wakulima wadogo.Tarehe kama ya leo, 18 Septemba mwaka 2021 dunia ilishitushwa na kuhuzunishwa na tangazo lililotolewa la uongozi wa Taliban nchini Afghanistan la kukataza wasichana barubaru kuendelea na masomo na kwamba darasa la sita ndio mwisho wa elimu yao. Sasa ni miaka minne na katazo hilo bado limesimama kitu ambacho Umoja wa Mataifa umeeleza kuwa ni “moja ya dhulma kubwa za wakati wetu.”Wakati Israeli ikiwa imetoa amri mpya ya watu kuhama kutoka jiji la Gaza katika eneo inalokalia kimabavu la Palestina, na kuelekea eneo ililotenga na kuliita ukanda wa kibinadamu kusini mwa Ukanda wa Gaza, shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Afya duniani, WHO limesikitishwa na agizo hilo jipya ikisema eneo halina ukubwa wala huduma za kutosha kusaidia wale walioko tayari huko, sembuse wale watakaowasili. Huduma za afya ni tete.Kupitia mradi wa SCRALA uliowezeshwa na  shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa  la mpango wa maendeleo, UNDP, wakulima wadogo nchini Zambia sasa wanaweza kulima mwaka mzima kwa kutumia miundombinu inayostahimili mabadiliko ya tabianchi kama vile mifumo ya umwagiliaji na vituo vya ukusanyaji mazao, jambo linalochangia kuongezeka kwa tija na upatikanaji wa masoko.Mwenyeji wako ni Assumpta Massoi, karibu!

The Forest Rights Act (FRA) came into being in 2006. As we touch 20 years of its existence as a tool for tribal empowerment, the United Nations Development Programme, or the UNDP, has come out with a comprehensive new report, titled ‘Securing rights, Enabling Futures: Policy Lessons from Forest Rights Act and Future Pathways'. We know that the Forest Rights Act seeks to remedy a historical injustice against forest-dwelling communities, who have paid the heaviest price for ‘development' through displacement and dispossession. This law restores the rights of these communities to live on forest land, and to use forest resources. While this sounds great in principle, it has run into many challenges in practice – including resistance from the forest bureaucracy itself. Recently, in a shocking development, thousands of forest rights titles disappeared from the records of the Chhattisgarh government. And in a stance that, on the face of it, would alarm forest-dwelling communities, the UNDP report suggests building a consensus for a ‘sunset clause' that provides an ‘end date' for the recognition and vesting of rights under the FRA – what does it mean? Why do we need a sunset clause for forest rights? Also, how can thousands of forest rights titles disappear all of a sudden? More broadly, how effective has been the implementation of the FRA so far, and what is required to make it more effective? Guests: Kanchi Kohli, well-known expert in environment and forest policy who has co-authored the UNDP report, and Abhinay Lakshman, who covers the FRA for The Hindu.

From Boardrooms to Base of the Pyramid – Stefan Engels on Reimagining Development Through Business. Meet Stefan Engels, an international development leader with a remarkable cross-sector journey—from corporate boardrooms to grassroots innovation hubs across Africa. Now based in Nairobi, Stefan brings nearly two decades of experience working at the nexus of private sector development, inclusive business models, and entrepreneurial ecosystems. Stefan's career began in the corporate world of pharmaceuticals - with Johnson & Johnson, where he rose from Sales Representative to Regional General Manager over 15 years. But he made a bold pivot—leaving behind corporate predictability to pursue purpose-driven work in international development. His career spans time with UNDP, GAIN (Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition), and multiple foundations and NGOs across Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Mozambique, and Vietnam. In this episode, Stefan shares his insights on transitioning from the private sector to global development—navigating cultural shifts, embracing multi-stakeholder partnerships, and building resilient, systemic solutions for complex challenges. We explore the seismic shifts in development aid, the growing role of business in achieving social impact, and the enduring power of inclusive business strategies. Expect to hear: * Why business can (and must) be a force for good * Lessons in systems change and co-creation * The future of development finance and impact measurement * Advice for businesses building social impact into their core model Whether you're a business leader seeking to deepen your social impact strategy, a development practitioner, or simply curious about how capitalism can align with sustainable development goals (SDGs)—you might find this interesting.

Pia Mailhot-Leichter is a creative partner, best selling author, certified coach, and founder. Her path has been anything but ordinary: a recovering nomad, she's reported as a journalist in Sri Lanka, graduated summa cum laude from NYU, and worked as an award-winning creative director for some of the biggest brands in the world. Now, as the founder of Kollektiv Studio, she's uniquely positioned to help people create their wild ventures. Pia Mailhot-Leichter Vroom Vroom Veer Summary Finding Joy in Creative Work Jeffery and Pia discussed Pia's work as a fractional creative director and creative coach in Copenhagen, where she collaborates with "unconventional dreamers" to bring their visions to life. Pia emphasized the importance of finding joy and purpose in one's work, citing the finite nature of life and the opportunity to create each day anew. They agreed on the value of maintaining optimism and finding joy in life's journey, with Jeffery referencing Jack Cornfield's perspective on the duty to be joyful. Pia's International Career Journey Pia shared her background, including growing up in New York City and her extensive travel experiences across various countries. She discussed her education, including studying English at Hunter College and pursuing a master's in international relations at NYU. Pia described her career path, which included working as a journalist in Sri Lanka and later doing communications work for the UNDP and an NGO called Plan International. Overcoming Adversity for Academic Success Pia shared her personal journey, including being kicked out of her house at 17 and struggling financially while attending college. Despite these challenges, she worked hard to achieve academic success, earning multiple cum laude degrees. After completing her master's, Pia took a contract role at the United Nations Development Program in New York City, though the salary was not sufficient to cover her living expenses. Cross-Cultural Work Experiences Discussed Jeffery and Pia discussed their experiences working in Bahrain and Qatar. Pia shared her disappointment at having to sell ad space for an economic documentary in Bahrain instead of pursuing her original goal of making a positive impact through transitional justice work. She realized later that the experience taught her valuable skills in sales and confidence in pitching to high-level executives. Jeffery, who served in the military, noted that frequent relocations and job changes helped him develop problem-solving skills, an attribute that was appreciated by his bosses. Embracing Change and Personal Growth Pia and Jeffery discussed the challenges and opportunities that come with change and new experiences. Pia shared her experience of choosing to stay in Copenhagen after a divorce, rather than moving to Paris, after her therapist encouraged her to consider developing a deeper relationship with herself in that place. They explored how moving can sometimes be a way to avoid dealing with personal issues, comparing it to the temporary nature of military assignments. The conversation concluded with Pia emphasizing the importance of making conscious choices about moving, rather than acting on impulse, as a way to gain empowerment and freedom. Life Changes and Lifestyle Reimagining Jeffery shared his experience of moving from Los Angeles to Las Vegas after 13 years, driven by a desire for change and the appeal of lower living costs. Pia discussed her own considerations for reimagining her life, particularly given her family commitments, and explored the possibility of designing a lifestyle that balances current and future desires. They both reflected on the importance of making conscious choices and the uncertainty of knowing where they might eventually settle, with Jeffery mentioning the potential of using his Vegas home as a base while exploring other locations temporarily. Japan Experiences and Climate Adaptations

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're taking listeners on a whistlestop tour of several big summer events in Europe that will shape sustainability discussions on the road to COP30, the UN Climate Change Conference in Belém, Brazil in November 2025.  We cover key outcomes from the 2025 United Nations Ocean Conference in Nice, France — including progress toward a Marine Biodiversity Treaty.  We talk to Beth Burks, Director on the Sustainable Finance Markets team at S&P Global Ratings, about her takeaways from annual climate meetings in Bonn, Germany.   “If COP is like the big show every year, then Bonn is the dress rehearsal,” Beth explains.   Beth also shares highlights from London Climate Action Week, which in 2025 grew significantly to include more than 700 events and more than 45,000 attendees.   In the episode we also speak to Tom Beloe, Director of the Sustainable Finance Hub at the UN Development Programme, or UNDP. Tom shares big takeaways from the 4th International Conference on Financing for Development, or FFD4, in Sevilla Spain. The conference took place for the first time in a decade this summer and centered around financing for the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs.   A unifying theme across all these events is the importance of multilateralism to address sustainability challenges that transcend borders, like climate change, nature loss and ocean conservation. Across these events, we also hear about the rising role the private sector plays in addressing and financing solutions to these challenges.   “I think we're seeing over the last 10 years a very much increasing trend of private sector participation,” Tom tells us. “Frankly, the discussions of finance that happen in these conferences are a little bit meaningless if we're not also convening with the largest financial institutions in the world.”  Learn about Climate Transition Assessments from S&P Global here.

The current global health system, which has achieved “tremendous” gains over the past decades, is a bit like a bowl of spaghetti, according to Mandeep Dhaliwal, the Director of Health at the UN Development Programme (UNDP).The intertwining noodles of pasta have – in some ways – produced a siloed health system, if you run with the metaphor: separate strands never quite connect.But public health is not a silo, Ms. Dhaliwal told UN News's Naima Sawaya, ahead of the High-Level Political Forum being held in New York over the next two weeks, which will discuss the world's commitment to accessible healthcare and well-being for all.

Ukraine's Kakhovka Dam was destroyed exactly two years ago on Friday, representing the most significant environmental disaster so far resulting from Russia's ongoing invasion. Its collapse directly impacted over 100,000 people and submerged more than 620 square kilometres under water.In addition to causing widespread displacement, the disaster created a humanitarian and ecological crisis – threatening disease outbreaks and prompting the collapse of ecosystems. The loss and damage from this event is estimated to be $14 billion. UN News' Evgeniya Kleshcheva sat down this week with Roman Shakhmatenko, a team leader with the UN Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine, to discuss the “far-reaching” consequences of the collapse.

For this special episode of our weekly podcast series, we sit down with outgoing UNDP Administrator Achim Steiner. He reflects on his two terms, navigating the agency through transitions and current disruptions. Steiner candidly discusses the significant impact of Trump administration program cuts, detailing how they disrupted vital partnerships and supply chains in crisis-hit countries. Hear his take on these impactful cancellations within the larger context of UNDP's work. Steiner also addresses the concerning trend of declining development finance for much of the developing world, despite overall ODA figures. He confronts the growing skepticism around multilateral institutions and the critical need for internal reflection.
