Alice mora no bairro do Ibura, na periferia do Recife. Quando as chuvas fortes atingiram a comunidade em 2022, barreiras deslizaram e casas inteiras foram soterradas. Amigos e vizinhos de Alice morreram, e ela, que é cadeirante e depende de acessibilidade para se locomover, ficou sem acesso ao seu tratamento fisioterapêutico.Mas foi justamente no meio do caos que Alice decidiu reagir. Junto a outros jovens da comunidade, começou a organizar doações, preparar refeições e visitar famílias que tinham perdido tudo. O que começou como uma ação emergencial se transformou em movimento. Da união nasceu o Coletivo Arte na Favela, um grupo criado por ela para mobilizar e educar os jovens do Ibura sobre as mudanças climáticas através da arte.Com o tempo, o coletivo virou espaço de escuta, aprendizado e reconstrução. Através da pintura, da música e do teatro, Alice e seus colegas passaram a falar sobre o impacto das mudanças climáticas, a importância do cuidado com o território e o direito de viver com dignidade, mesmo nas áreas esquecidas da cidade.Para ela, o que aconteceu no Ibura não foi apenas uma tragédia ambiental, mas um retrato de como as mudanças climáticas atingem, primeiro e com mais força, quem vive nas margens.Hoje, integrante do Conselho Jovem do UNICEF, Alice leva sua voz para além da comunidade, lembrando que cada enchente, cada deslizamento e cada vida perdida tem uma história por trás.Para ela, “quando a natureza sofre, a gente sofre junto” porque cuidar da terra é cuidar da gente também. A história da Alice faz parte da parceria entre o UNICEF e o Histórias de ter.a.pia para alertar sobre os efeitos das mudanças climáticas na vida de crianças e adolescentes no Brasil.

Ghasia zinazoendelea kwa kasi zinawakwamisha zaidi watoto katikati ya mashambulizi ya mabomu yasiyokoma, mapigano makali, na uhaba mkubwa wa chakula, maji salama na dawa kwa zaidi ya siku 500 sasa.“Hakuna mtoto aliye salama,” anasema Catherine Russell, Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa Shrika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Watoto, UNICEF kupitia taarifa iliyotolewa na makao makuu ya shirika hilo jijini New York, Marekani leo.Taarifa hiyo pia inamnukuu Catherine Russell akisema, “ingawa athari kamili bado haijulikani kutokana na kukatika kwa mawasiliano kote nchini Sudan, inakadiriwa kuwa watoto wapatao 130,000 huko Al Fasher wako katika hatari kubwa ya kukiukwa haki zao, huku kukiripotiwa visa vya utekaji nyara, mauaji na ukataji viungo vya mwili, pamoja na ukatili wa kingono.”Pia kuna taarifa za wafanyakazi wa mashirika ya kibinadamu kukamatwa au kuuawa.UNICEF inatoa wito wa kusitishwa mara moja kwa mapigano, kuhakikisha upatikanaji salama na usiokatizwa wa misaada ya kibinadamu, ulinzi wa raia hasa watoto, na kupatiwa uhakika wa njia salama kwa familia zinazotafuta hifadhi, kwa mujibu wa sheria za kimataifa za kibinadamu. Wale wanaohusika na ukiukaji lazima wawajibishwe.Wakati huohuo, Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Mpango wa Chakula Duniani (WFP) limethibitisha kwamba Wizara ya Mambo ya Nje ya Sudan imewataarifu kuwa viongozi  wawili wa juu wa WFP nchini  wametangazwa kuwa watu wasiotakiwa nchini Sudan na hivyo wameamriwa kuondoka nchini humo ndani ya saa 72, bila maelezo yoyote.WFP inaeleza kwamba uamuzi huu wa kuwafukuza Mkurugenzi wa WFP nchini Sudan na Mratibu wa Dharura wa WFP nchini humo unakuja katika kipindi muhimu kwani mahitaji ya kibinadamu nchini Sudan hayajawahi kuwa makubwa zaidi kama kipindi hiki, huku zaidi ya watu milioni 24 wakikabiliwa na uhaba mkubwa wa chakula na jamii zikikumbwa na baa la njaa.Wakati ambapo WFP na washirika wake wanapaswa kupanua wigo wa msaada, uamuzi huu unalazimisha shirika kubadilisha uongozi bila mpango, jambo linalohatarisha shughuli zinazowaunga mkono mamilioni ya Wasudani walio hatarini kukumbwa na njaa kali, utapiamlo, na hata kifo kutokana na njaa.WFP na maafisa wa ngazi ya juu wa Umoja wa Mataifa wanaendelea kuzungumza na mamlaka za Sudan kupinga hatua hii na kutaka ufafanuzi wa uamuzi huo.Tags: Sudan, El Fasher, WFP, UNICEF

C'est de celui-là que je suis devenu contemporain.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayoangazia siku ya Umoja wa Mataifa na tutasikia kutoka mashinani wananchi na asasi za kiraia zina yapi ya kusema kuhusu shirika hili kubwa na la kipekee linalounganisha nchi wanachama 193 duniani.Mashirika manne ya Umoja wa Mataifa lile la uhamiaji IOM, la kuhudumia wakimbizi UNHCR, la Kuhudumia watoto UNICEF na la mpango wa chakula duniani WFP leo yametoa wito wa dharura kwa dunia kuchukua hatua mara moja kukabiliana na janga la kibinadamu linaloongezeka nchini Sudan. Zaidi ya watu milioni 30 wanahitaji msaada, nchini humo wakiwemo watoto milioni 15 na wakimbizi karibu milioni moja.Mahakama ya Kimataifa ya Haki (ICJ) jana Oktoba 22 ilisema Israeli lazima itimize majukumu yake kama “anayekalia kimabavu” kwa kuhakikisha kuwa msaada unaweza kupita bila vizuizi na kwa kuheshimu haki za Umoja wa Mataifa na mashirika mengine ya kibinadamu yanayofanya kazi katika Ardhi ya Palestina Iliyokaliwa kwa Mabavu. Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa António Guterres ameelezea maoni hayo ya ICJ kuwa “muhimu sana,” akiongeza kuwa yametolewa wakati ambapo Umoja wa Mataifa unafanya kila juhudi kuongeza kasi ya misaada kuingia Gaza baada ya kusitishwa kwa mapigano.Nchini Kenya, wahudumu wa afya waliokuwa wakisubiri hadi siku 15 kupata malipo sasa wanapokea pesa ndani ya saa 72 pekee, shukrani kwa mfumo mpya wa malipo ya kidijitali uliotolewa na Shirika la Sfya la Umoja wa Mataifa WHO na Wizara ya Afya ya nchi hiyo. Mfumo huu unapeleka fedha moja kwa moja kwenye pochi za simu za wafanyakazi, ukipunguza ucheleweshaji, gharama na kuongeza motisha. Wafanyakazi zaidi ya 120,000 sasa wanafaidika, kuboresha ufanisi wa kampeni za chanjo na juhudi za kudhibiti polio.Mwenyeji wako ni Anold Kayanda, karibu!

Toda vez que começa a chover, Ágata fica em alerta. Ela tem só 6 anos, mas já sabe o que precisa fazer: guardar os brinquedos, levantar os cadernos e separar suas roupas. A água entra rápido na casa onde mora com o pai, Rafael, e eles aprenderam a reagir depressa para tentar salvar o que podem.Rafael mora na Baixada da Sobral, bairro periférico e o mais populoso de Rio Branco, no Acre, em uma área que alaga quase sempre. Atrás da casa dele passa um córrego estreito, que recebe água da chuva e também a água suja liberada pela empresa de abastecimento. O resultado é sempre o mesmo: o córrego transborda, as ruas desaparecem e muitas famílias ficam ilhadas.Ele e a filha já perderam fogão, cama, armário. Hoje, vivem com tijolos empilhados em casa para levantar os móveis quando a água sobe. Mesmo assim, muitas vezes passam horas presos dentro de casa, sem luz, sem internet e sem como sair. Quando a escola de Ágata alaga, ela perde aula. Cansado de ver a situação se repetir, ele começou a usar o humor como forma de protesto e transformar isso em ferramenta de denúncia. Gravou o primeiro vídeo satirizando as enchentes do bairro, o conteúdo viralizou e o tornou uma voz entre os vizinhos.Rafael também organizou manifestações pacíficas para cobrar ações do poder público. Em uma delas, acabou sendo agredido e detido por um policial. No mesmo dia, à noite, o bairro voltou a alagar. Mesmo assim, ele não parou de cobrar.Hoje, Rafael usa as redes sociais para mostrar a realidade das mais de 100 mil pessoas que vivem em seu bairro. Fala sobre os impactos ambientais, o descaso das autoridades e a falta de saneamento. E, no meio de tudo isso, tenta ensinar à filha que vale a pena continuar tentando.A história completa do Rafael e da Ágata você assiste no site historiasdeterapia.com.A história dos dois faz parte da parceria entre o UNICEF e o Histórias de ter.a.pia para alertar sobre os efeitos das mudanças climáticas na vida de crianças e adolescentes no Brasil. As pessoas retratadas não necessariamente são beneficiárias de programas implementados pelo UNICEF ou por parceiros.

Governments need to focus on local practical delivery, and people focused mechanisms, including dignity to deliver more effective social assistance in crisis contexts, experts explain in a new episode of the Between the Lines podcast.In this episode, researchers and policymakers examine why and how and when to use social protection approaches in different crisis contexts so that more effective social assistance can be delivered. This includes examples of Syrian refugees in Lebanon and Jordan.This episode features a combination of researchers, policy makers and practitioners from the IDS-hosted programme Better Assistance in Crisis Research (BASIC) who share findings and recommendations. They comprise:Rachel Slater, consultant from Better Assistance in Crisis Research (BASIC) project;Nadine Khayat, senior lecturer, School of Architecture and Design, Beirut Urban Lab;Julie Lawson McDowall, senior social protection advisor at Save the Children;Charlotte Bilo, child poverty and social protection consultant, UNICEF.The discussion looks into detail about a particular theme of basic research – and that it is how in these really difficult crisis settings (with examples of Syrian refugees in Lebanon) we can make social protection more inclusive. The second thing they focused on is how we talk about policy implications of basic research. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

®I campi profughi saharawi, rintracciabili nei pressi di Tindouf, nel sud-ovest dell'Algeria, sono sull'orlo di una crisi alimentare di dimensioni epocali. Causa scatenante è il conflitto Ucraina - Russia e gli esiti che da questo seguono: il blocco per mesi dell'invio di grano da Kiev e dintorni ed il conseguente rialzo dei prezzi sia delle merci che dei cereali, hanno impattato drammaticamente sulla fornitura di aiuti umanitari. L'impegno pluridecennale profuso dalla cooperazione internazionale che dal mercato ucraino si rifornisce, è messo alla dura prova. Lo status di insicurezza alimentare riguarda quasi il novanta percento dei rifugiati, drammatico è l'esito su minori, donne in gravidanza ed allattamento. Nel mentre gli stoccaggi delle derrate alimentare sono al lumicino, al punto tale che UNHCR, UNICEF e World Food Programme, hanno lanciato un grido di allarme ribadito anche dal segretario generale dell'ONU. A peggiorare la situazione incorre anche il carico dei rifugiati in fuga dai territori liberati del Western Sahara, a seguito della guerra ancora in corso tra Repubblica Araba Saharawi Democratica e Marocco. Cosa stia accadendo lo raccontano le voci dei profughi in viaggio e quella di Buhubeini Yahya, responsabile della ong Media Luna Roja Saharawi che si occupa della distribuzione degli aiuti alimentari negli accampamenti.Prima emissione: 21 febbraio 2023

João já nasceu lutando pela vida. No seu parto, os médicos diziam que só poderiam salvar uma vida, a dele ou da mãe. Os dois sobreviveram e João veio ao mundo muito cheio de uma força que só cresceria com o tempo.Sua mãe era uma mulher trabalhadora da periferia de Belém, no Pará, e enfrentava o sol escaldante diariamente indo para o trabalho, que a fez desenvolver um câncer de pele.Quando João tinha 2 anos, sua mãe partiu por conta da doença que avançou rápido demais.Crescer sabendo dessa história fez João entender o que muitos adultos ainda custam a perceber: as mudanças climáticas e as desigualdades sociais matam pessoas reais como a sua mãe.Na Ilha de Caratateua, onde vive com os avós, João sente esses impactos todos os dias: o calor intenso na escola, os incêndios que cercam as casas e as chuvas que alagam as ruas. João cresceu em meio à fé protestante e à consciência de que a Terra também precisa de cuidado. João entendeu, aos 13 anos, o quanto a mudança nasce quando as pessoas se unem.A primeira vez que mobilizou a vizinhança foi por causa do lixo que tomava a sua rua. Ali ele reuniu alguns vizinhos, puxou o lixo pro meio da via, fechou as avenidas e chamou atenção das autoridades.Depois disso, sua voz foi ficando mais alta. Quando foi convidado para ser Conselheiro Jovem do UNICEF Brasil, João entendeu que sua luta, antes local, agora ecoava em todo o país.Representando a juventude amazônica, ele se tornou uma das vozes mais potentes na defesa do meio ambiente e na busca por justiça climática.Hoje, aos 16 anos, ele é conhecido como João do Clima, um jovem que luta por sua comunidade, pelos rios, pelas florestas e pelas pessoas que, assim como sua mãe, sofrem as consequências da desigualdade e da crise ambiental.A história de João faz parte da parceria entre o UNICEF e o Histórias de ter.a.pia para alertar sobre os efeitos das mudanças climáticas na vida de crianças e adolescentes no Brasil. As pessoas retratadas não necessariamente são beneficiárias de programas implementados pelo UNICEF ou por parceiros.

Send us a textIn this episode, Mbozu and Shelly-Ann are joined by Jean Musonda-Chintende, a critical care nurse and national trainer in advanced newborn care with the Ministry of Health in Zambia. Jean shares her decade-long journey in neonatal intensive care and her leadership in building and mentoring neonatal units across the country.She discusses the process of setting up special care baby units in hospitals that previously lacked neonatal services, including assessing facility readiness, training staff, and ensuring standardized care through continued mentorship. Jean highlights partnerships with organizations such as UNICEF and Clinton Health Access Initiative that support equipment and training efforts.The conversation also touches on the challenges of workforce retention, the importance of continuous education for nurses, and the power of recognition in maintaining morale.

L'UNICEF tire la sonnette d'alarme sur une crise humanitaire qui ne cesse de s'aggraver, avec des milliers d'enfants déplacés, privés d'école et exposés aux violences des gangs. Retour sur une situation dramatique qui appelle une mobilisation urgente. En Haïti, les jours se suivent et se ressemblent : la mainmise des gangs s'accentue Ce mardi (14 octobre 2025), Médecins sans frontières annonce la fermeture définitive de l'un de ses centres d'urgence. Ce centre, situé en plein cœur de Port-au-Prince, était à l'arrêt depuis plusieurs mois, après une attaque contre un convoi de l'organisation humanitaire. Mais cette fois, le couperet tombe : il ne rouvrira pas. Malgré cela, MSF assure qu'elle poursuit ses actions sur le terrain, auprès des populations les plus vulnérables, et parmi elles : les enfants. Beaucoup ont fui avec leur famille, trouvant refuge dans des abris de fortune, totalement inadaptés à la vie quotidienne. Certains sont privés d'école, d'autres directement ciblés par les violences. Geeta Narayan représente Unicef en Haïti et elle se désole de voir la situation s'aggraver encore. Surtout, les déplacements de population accentuent les autres crises : ainsi, plus de 33% des sites ne disposent pas d'infrastructures de protection de base, ce qui expose les enfants et les femmes à un risque accru de violence, d'exploitation et d'abus. Les écoles servent souvent de refuges, ce qui perturbe l'éducation de près d'un demi-million d'élèves. Plus de 3,3 millions d'enfants ont besoin d'une aide humanitaire ; tandis que plus d'un million d'entre eux se trouvent dans une situation d'insécurité alimentaire critique. Selon les projections, environ 288 544 enfants de moins de cinq ans souffriront de malnutrition aiguë cette année. Les gangs armés contrôlent plus de 85% du territoire de Port-au-Prince et des routes principales, privant les familles d'accès à la nourriture, aux soins de santé et aux services de protection, tandis que les acteurs humanitaires s'exposent à de graves dangers pour venir en aide aux plus démunis. «Les enfants d'Haïti ne peuvent pas attendre. Comme tous les enfants, ils méritent de vivre en sécurité, en bonne santé et en paix. Il nous revient d'agir dès maintenant pour ces enfants.»   Donald Trump recevait hier Javier Milei à la Maison Blanche La rencontre était faite pour sceller la bonne entente entre Washington et Buenos Aires, et le soutien financier américain à l'économie. Toute la presse en parle, mais cette rencontre est surtout critiquée dans les journaux argentins. Pour la Nacion, quotidien plutôt conservateur en Argentine, Donald Trump est intervenu dans la politique intérieure argentine «sans demander la permission», notamment en exhortant Javier Milei à remporter les prochaines élections législatives dans dix jours. «Trump, un président comme on en a jamais vu», titre le journal qui rappelle dans le même temps ce contexte : le président argentin est le seul dirigeant latino-américain issu d'un pays d'envergure «à être idéologiquement proche du locataire de la Maison Blanche». Pour l'auteur, cette rencontre était un spectacle extravaguant : «le président argentin s'est montré à la fois théoricien de l'économie, homme politique en campagne électorale et chanteur désaccordé», comme si Milei ne semblait pas percevoir la réalité qui l'entoure. En d'autres termes, la crise économique et financière. Pagina 12, un quotidien plus à gauche, poursuit cette idée et décrit Milei «désireux de plaire avant de lever le pouce». Signe du désintérêt américain, estime le quotidien, lors de la conférence de presse «le discours de l'Argentin n'a même pas été traduit en anglais» et l'annonce publique concernant l'Argentine s'est limitée aux résultats des élections. «La promesse d'aide s'est surtout transformée en menace, et la contribution américaine à la stabilité financière est devenue une extorsion pure et simple», résume un éditorialiste économique dans le même journal.   Aux États-Unis, des milliers de messages privés échangés par des responsables du parti républicain : des plaisanteries choquantes sur les chambres à gaz, l'esclavage ou encore le viol Des échanges pendant 7 mois révélés en exclusivité par le site Politico après la fuite d'un fichier Telegram de 2 900 pages entre des jeunes dirigeants républicains de New York, du Kansas, de l'Arizona et du Vermont. Les propos sont choquants : «Ils qualifiaient les Noirs de singes et envisageaient de mettre leurs adversaires politiques dans des chambres à gaz», écrivent les journalistes. Depuis le début de l'enquête, apprend-on dans un autre article de Politico, un membre du groupe de discussion a perdu son travail, un autre a vu son offre d'emploi annulée. Mais c'est surtout, rapporte le site d'information, «un aperçu sans filtre de la façon dont une nouvelle génération de militants républicains s'exprime lorsqu'elle pense que personne ne l'écoute». Au fond, analysent les journalistes, «c'est aussi l'assouplissement des normes politiques sous l'ère Trump qui a rendu ce genre de discours moins tabou chez ceux qui s'identifient comme les futurs dirigeants du parti républicain».   Au Pérou, la Génération Z dans la rue face au pouvoir politique  Ce sont les personnes nées entre 1995 et 2010, une génération souvent décrite comme plus engagée socialement et prête à basculer les pouvoirs en place. Au Pérou, ces jeunes - qui représentent un électeur sur 4 - appellent à une grève nationale et à une mobilisation ce jour avec plusieurs organisations de la société civile. Le site de la radio péruvienne, RPP, revient sur leurs réclamations : «si à l'origine, ils réclamaient l'abrogation de la loi de modernisation du système de retraite, les groupes de la Génération Z réaffirment leur appel à des élections, ils veulent le départ de José Jeri - le nouveau président - et demandent l'arrivée au pouvoir d'un député qui ne fait pas partie des factions qui soutenaient la présidence précédente». Le quotidien La Repubblica rapporte de son côté les mots acerbes du nouveau Premier ministre quant à la mobilisation sociale : «une tentative subversive visant à mettre fin à la démocratie». Ce n'est pas tout : il qualifie la Génération Z au Pérou de «bande héritière du MRTA», un groupe armé maoïste responsable d'actions violentes dans les années 80-90.   En Amérique centrale, des pluies torrentielles sur plusieurs pays et des bilans qui s'alourdissent Au Mexique, au moins 64 personnes ont perdu la vie. 65 autres sont toujours portées disparues. Des quartiers entiers sont menacés d'effondrement, et l'aide humanitaire peine à parvenir, certaines zones étant pratiquement isolées. Sur le terrain, des soldats creusent à la pelle pour tenter de rouvrir des routes. Les intempéries ont également frappé le Salvador, le Guatemala, et surtout le Honduras, placé en alerte rouge depuis dimanche (12 octobre 2025). Par mesure de sécurité, écoles et universités ont fermé leurs portes. Et aujourd'hui, plus de 12 000 personnes se retrouvent sans abri, après la destruction de leur logement. Les bidonvilles, déjà fragiles, comptent parmi les zones les plus durement touchées. «C'est un désastre total. On ramasse ce qu'on peut pour voir si on peut ensuite reconstruire dans un autre endroit Ici plus rien n'est possible, parce que le sol va continuer à s'effondrer et on ne sait pas jusqu'où», témoigne Adolfo, debout dans sa maison détruite, tentant de récupérer un ventilateur cassé et une paire de pantoufles. Après la catastrophe, il faut désormais trouver un nouveau logement : un défi pour ces familles pauvres. «Le loyer est cher ici, ça coûte 130 euros, c'est beaucoup et il faut beaucoup travailler pour pouvoir payer ça», poursuit-il.    Brésil : alerte au méthanol dans l'alcool fort, plusieurs décès signalés Depuis quelques jours, les autorités brésiliennes recommandent de ne plus consommer d'alcools forts, suite à une série de cas d'intoxication au méthanol. Ce produit chimique industriel, hautement toxique même à faible dose, a été retrouvé dans plusieurs boissons alcoolisées, mélangé à d'autres types d'alcools. Il pourrait s'agir de falsifications ou de productions illégales. Le bilan est déjà lourd : au moins cinq personnes sont décédées, et des dizaines d'autres ont été hospitalisées après avoir consommé ces produits contaminés. L'affaire suscite une vive inquiétude dans le pays, alors que les enquêtes se poursuivent pour identifier les circuits de distribution et retirer les lots suspects du marché.
