Women and girls experience towns and cities differently. Many change their routes, avoid particular places after dark or plan journeys around where they are most likely to feel safe. Yet planning responses often remain focused on familiar interventions such as brighter lighting, CCTV and clearer sightlines.In this episode of BE Sustainable, host Mike Speight asks whether better placemaking can genuinely make women safer, or whether the built environment is being expected to solve a problem rooted in wider cultures, behaviours and institutions.He is joined by Charlotte Morphet, the University of the Built Environment's Urban Planning programmer leader and a specialist in planning and placemaking that works for women and girls, and Holly Lewis, co-founder of architecture and urbanism practice We Made That and town architect for the London Borough of Hackney.The discussion also considers why women's safety has struggled to secure a central place within planning policy, including recent criticism of proposed changes to England's National Planning Policy Framework.The murder of Sarah Everard raises a further and deeply uncomfortable question. When violence can involve trusted individuals and the misuse of institutional authority, where do the responsibilities and limitations of planning lie?Charlotte and Holly discuss what genuinely inclusive placemaking could look like and why women's lived experience should carry greater weight in decision-making.Resources: Nationwide plans announced to design safer streets as nine in ten women report feeling unsafe walking at night – Active Travel England, March 2026.

How do harmful cultural norms, traditions, and deeply rooted beliefs impact intimate partner relationships—and what can we do to change them?To help us unpack this important topic, our host, Nandini Raywas joined by two distinguished members of the Pakistani community: Ahsan Qazi and Maria Ahmad. Ahsan Qazi is a writer, researcher, entrepreneur, and sociologist with a deep interest in understanding the forces that shape society. Ahsan has a bachelor's degree in English Literature and Sociology, followed by an MBA in Strategy and Innovation. He is the founder of One Voice: Pakistan and World Affairs in Sociological Perspective. Ahsan has written extensively on social, political, and global issues, with his work published in Eurasia Review. His research explores inequality, governance, identity, and the growing impact of artificialintelligence on society, political beliefs, and human behavior. Professionally, he has spent more than eight years working inenterprise technology and technical communication, and he is the founder and CEO of Marvalero, where he is building an AI-powered platform for businesses and creators. While technology is an important part of what he does, his deeperpassion has always been understanding people, how societies evolve, why institutions succeed or fail, and how ideas shape civilizations.Maria Ahmad is an international development professional with two decades of experience working at the intersection of gender, migration, and institutional accountability across the UN agencies, INGOs, and independent consultancies. Her work has repeatedly returned to the question of how women, particularly migrant and minority women, are represented, protected, and structurally excluded within the systems meant to serve them, from her early reporting career in Pakistan as an award-winning journalist covering social and gender issues - including reports on MukhtaraMai's jirga-approved gang rape and accompanying her to the Pakistan Parliament tofight for justice - to her recent gender-mainstreaming review of Uruguay's National Migrant Integration Plan with UN Women and IOM, where she examined how policy frameworks fail to account for gender even when they claim to be gender-responsive. Maria's career began injournalism in Pakistan, where she reported for GEO TV, BBC Radio, and Canadian broadcasters before moving into humanitarian and development work with IOM,where she spent years designing accountability and communication systems for displaced and vulnerable populations, including large-scale crisis response inPakistan. She has since worked on safeguarding frameworks addressing gender-specific vulnerability and trafficking risk, advised on AI-enabled toolsfor documenting technology-facilitated gender-based violence, and written on the representation of immigrant communities in public discourse. As a Pakistani woman who has lived and worked across South Asian, Middle Eastern, and Latin American contexts, she brings both a personal vantage point on the patriarchal norms shaping South Asian family and partner relationships, and a professional lens on how those norms show up — often invisibly — in the policies andinstitutions built around them. Host: Nandini Ray, Sr. Manager, Outreach, Prevention &Policy Advocacy at Maitri.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina na leo tunakwenda Afrika Mashariki hususan nchini Tanzania katika visiwa vya Zanzibar. Tunamulika jinsi serikali ya Zanzibar kwa ushirikiano na shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Mpango wa Maendeleo nchini humo, UNDP wanaboresha huduma za utalii kwa kutumia Akili Mnemba au AI. Ripoti mpya ya Umoja wa Mataifa imeonya kuwa kupunguzwa kwa misaada rasmi ya maendeleo tangu Januari 2025 kumesababisha takribani wanawake na wasichana milioni moja duniani kupoteza huduma muhimu katika nchi zilizoathiriwa na migogoro. Ikitolewa leo Geneva, Uswisi na New York, Marekani na shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa linaloshughulikia masuala ya wanawake, UN Women, ripoti hiyo iliyopatiwa jina ‘Zaidi ya Kiwango cha Kuvumilika' miongoni mwa changamoto ilizozitaja ni pamoja na kuwa asilimia 84 ya mashirika ya wanawake yameripoti kuongezeka kwa mahitaji ya huduma, lakini takribani asilimia 90 ya mahitaji hayawezi tena kuyakidhi na kwamba mashirika mawili kati ya matano yanatarajia kufungwa ndani ya mwaka mmoja kutokana na ukosefu wa fedha.Huko Sudan, nchi inayoumia kwa vita kwa miaka minne sasa, kumetangazwa mlipuko mpya wa ugonjwa wa kipindupindu hali inayozidisha wasiwasi kuhusu usalama wa jamii zilizo hatarini, hususan katika mji wa El-Obeid uliozingirwa, ambako mashambulizi ya kila siku ya ndege zisizo na rubani yanaendelea kuzuia upatikanaji wa misaada ya kibinadamu. Dkt. Shible Sahbani, Mwakilishi wa Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Afya Duniani (WHO) nchini Sudan akizungumza kwa njia ya video na waandishi wa habari leo mjini Geneva, uswisi amesema, “tumerekodi zaidi ya wagonjwa 1,330 wa kipindupindu, huku watu 114 wakifariki dunia kutokana na ugonjwa huo. Hii inaonesha kiwango cha vifo miongoni mwa wagonjwa wa kipindupindu cha asilimia 13.7, ambacho ni cha juu sana. Na bila shaka, msimu wa mvua unaotarajiwa utaifanya hali kuwa mbaya zaidi.”Na utafiti wa Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Elimu, Sayansi na Utamaduni, UNESCO kuhusu Ufuatiliaji wa Elimu Duniani, umeonesha kuwa misaada ya kimataifa kwa sekta ya elimu imeendelea kupungua na nchi 113 duniani zinatumia fedha nyingi kulipa madeni kuliko pesa wanazoziwekeza kwenye elimu. Matokeo ya utafiti huo yamewekwa wazi leo mbele ya viongozi kutoka nchi mbalimbali wanaohudhuria Mkutano wa Mageuzi ya Elimu TES+4 unaofanyika Paris, Ufaransa ili kufuatilia utekelezaji wa maazimio ya mkutano wa kwanza wa Mageuzi ya Elimu uliofanyika mwaka 2022 na pia ili kusongesha zaidi ufikiaji wa Lengo namba 4 la Maendeleo Endelevu linalohusu Elimu Bora.Mwenyeji wako ni Feissal Kirwa, karibu!

Last year Kenya's President William Ruto established a task force to investigate the escalating cases of gender-based violence including femicide. The task force travelled around the country gathering information and at the beginning of this year published its recommendations, which are now being debated in parliament. One of those recommendations is the legal recognition of femicide as a standalone crime. UN Women, the United Nations agency which promotes the empowerment and rights of girls and women, have been working with grassroots organisations in Kenya on male engagement strategies, to change perceptions of the role of men and women. But the UN Women's representative in Kenya, acknowledges that challenges remain. In the meantime, women continue to march in protest and the country waits to see if President Ruto will implement the task force recommendations. So, is Kenya serious about ending femicide?Contributors Shyleen Momanyi, executive director, Young Women's Leadership Institute, Nairobi, Kenya Dr Nancy Baraza, former deputy chief justice of the Republic of Kenya, senior law lecturer, University of Nairobi, chairperson of the technical working group on gender-based violence including femicide, Kenya Consuelo Corradi, professor of sociology, Lumsa University, Rome, Italy Antonia Sodonon, UN Women country representative, Kenya Presenter: Charmaine Cozier Producer: Jill Collins Researcher: Evie Yabsley Editor: Tom Bigwood Technical producer: Toby James Production management: Phoebe Lomas and Liam Morrey(Photo: Protesters attend a rally in Nairobi demanding an end to femicide, 27 January, 2024.

Only 3 out of 10 women in Reese Witherspoon's book club were using AI regularly when she posted about it. That stat is staggering.This week's episode is a little different. I sat down with my friend Stephanie Mitton on her podcast, Women Don't Do That, to talk about the AI adoption gap between women and men, and the conversation went further than I expected. So instead of letting it live on her feed alone, I'm bringing our full chat to you here.What you'll hear:Why the gap in AI adoption between women and men isn't about skill, it's about guilt and identityThe "it's not cheating, it's choosing ease" mindset shift that changed how I think about using these toolsThe real wage premium and job disruption numbers tied to AI skills right now, and what they mean if you sit this one outHow I built a "Family Command Center" with AI to run my household through back to back softball, pool parties and general summer chaosWhy the environmental concerns people raise about AI deserve more nuance than a knee-jerk reaction (a real example from a Canadian data centre)The two actual skills that make you good at AI, and neither one is codingTake the next step: Introductory AI Course for Women: https://www.beaconmentorshipacademy.com/event-list>>MEET STEPHANIE

Pakistan has recently announced that they plan to abolish the 18% sales tax on menstrual products like pads or tampons. UN Women has welcomed the decision, saying that when these products become more affordable it means more girls and women stay in school and the workforce. For the Unexpected Elements team, the news has led us towards scientific stories of menstruation and different kinds of cycles. First up, a look at how the menstrual cycle affects drugs reaching the brain and an exploration of one of the only other animals to get a period, the weird and wonderful spiny mouse. Author of A City on Mars, Kelly Weinersmith, also joins us to ponder over what to do when you get your period in space. Plus, how termite brains change between sexes, why we can't stop snacking, and the daily battle of the sleep/wake cycle. All that, plus many more Unexpected Elements.Presenter: Caroline Steel, with Camilla Mota and Tristan Ahtone Producers: Sophie Ormiston and Ella Hubber with Lucy Davies and Robbie Wojciechowski

Artificial intelligence is changing the way we work, lead and make decisions. Whether you're curious, skeptical or simply unsure where to begin, this conversation offers a practical and thoughtful introduction to what AI means for women today. Stephanie Mitton sits down with returning guest Kelly Sinclair, entrepreneur and AI company co-founder, to explore why women are adopting AI more slowly than men, what opportunities may be missed if that gap continues, and how AI can become a practical partner rather than a replacement for human expertise. This episode covers: Why women are adopting AI more slowly than men and why that matters The difference between generic AI and expert-backed AI How AI can reduce mental load at work and at home Practical ways to start using AI without technical expertise Common concerns around jobs, creativity, privacy and the environment How AI is changing entrepreneurship, leadership and the future of work Simple AI use cases every busy woman can try this week AI is already reshaping workplaces and industries, but understanding it doesn't require becoming a technology expert. This conversation encourages women to stay curious, experiment thoughtfully and develop the skills that will help them thrive as work continues to evolve.

Hate speech is an unavoidable menace today – particularly so for women and girls – on and offline. The abuse they face is increasingly fuelled by so-called “manosphere” online influencers.Their posts primarily target young men and boys to promote a warped view of masculinity, usually by promoting rigid gender roles and misogyny.To mark the International Day for Countering Hate Speech on 18 June, UN News's Nathalie Minard sat down with Kalliopi Mingeirou from gender equality agency UN Women, where she's leading efforts to end gender-based violence.

Today's guest is Anne Speckhard, Director of the International Center for the Study of Violent Extremism. She's an expert in rehabilitation and repatriation of terrorists and their families, and has consulted with foreign governments on issues of terrorist prevention, interventions and repatriation; and the rehabilitation and reintegration of ISIS foreign fighters, wives and children. Her latest book, Homegrown Hate, examines the deepening threat of domestic violent extremism in the US through in-depth interviews with current and former members of domestic hate groups. In this episode, Alon and Anne discuss the psychosocial dimensions of violent extremism, what attracts people to these ideologies, how terrorists and violent extremists have been able to utilize social media to draw people in, and what can be done to try to prevent people from falling into extremist ideologies. Anne Speckhard, Ph.D., is Director of the International Center for the Study of Violent Extremism (ICSVE) and served for over 2 decades as Adjunct Associate Professor of Psychiatry at Georgetown University School of Medicine as well as an Affiliate in the Center for Security Studies, Georgetown University. She has interviewed over 800 terrorists, violent extremists, their family members and supporters around the world. Over the past 5 years, she has conducted in-depth psychological interviews with 275 ISIS defectors, returnees and prisoners, as well as 16 al Shabaab cadres, studying their trajectories into and out of terrorism, and their experiences inside ISIS and al Shabaab. Speckhard developed ICSVE's Breaking the ISIS Brand Counter Narrative Project from these interviews, which includes over 250 short counter narrative videos that mimic ISIS recruitment videos but contain actual terrorists strongly denouncing ISIS as un-Islamic, corrupt and brutal. Beginning in 2020, she launched the ICSVE Escape Hate Counter Narrative Project, interviewing 54 white supremacists and members of hate groups, developing counternarratives from their interviews, and creating anti-recruitment videos. She has also conducted rare interviews with five Antifa activists. Dr. Speckhard is also an expert in rehabilitation and repatriation of terrorists and their families.

Two and a half years after October 7th, the Civil Commission on October 7th Crimes by Hamas Against Women and Children has published its comprehensive report — 300 pages of meticulously corroborated evidence documenting what was done to women, men, children, and hostages on that day and in captivity since. This week, Yonit and Jonathan speak with Dr. Cochav Elkayam-Levy, the founder and chair of the Commission, 2024 Israel Prize laureate, and expert in international law and human rights — the woman who spent more than two years immersed in 10,000 photographs and videos and 430 testimonies so the world could not look away. They discuss what the evidence reveals about the scale and calculated nature of the atrocities, why so many feminist organisations around the world fell silent, the new legal concept of “kinocide” that the Commission had to coin because no existing term could capture what had happened to families — and what it means that the person who stared deepest into this abyss still believes in peace.

Zaidi ya wanawake na wasichana 100 wanakimbia makazi yao kila saa nchini Sudan Kusini huku kuongezeka kwa mapigano na njaa kukichochea kuongezeka kwa janga la kibinadamu, Anna Mutavati, Mkurugenzi wa Kanda ya Afrika Mashariki na Kusini mwa Afrika ya Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Masuala ya Wanawake (UN Women) ameeleza leo baada ya ziara ya siku tano nchini humo.Kupitia taarifa ya UN Women iliyosambazwa leo kwa vyombo vya habari katika mji mkuu wa Sudan Kusini Juba na katika ofisi za Umoja wa Mataifa zilizoko Geneva, Uswisi, Anna Mutavati amenukuliwa akisema, “takribani asilimia 60 ya watu 223,641  ya waliokimbia makazi yao tangu mwanzo wa mwaka huu nchini Sudan Kusini ni wanawake na wasichana, wastani wa wanawake 104 kila saa,” na akaongeza kuwa baadhi ya wanawake na wasichana “wanakula mimea ya porini ili kuishi,” huku wengine wakikaa siku kadhaa bila kula. Amefafanua zaidi kuwa sehemu kubwa ya watu waliokimbia makazi yao ni kutoka Jimbo la Jonglei, ambako takribani wanawake na wasichana 174,197 wameathiriwa na mapigano. Bi. Mutavati amesema wanawake na wasichana ni miongoni mwa waliouawa katika mashambulizi ya kulengwa, ikiwemo shambulio la Machi katika Eneo la Utawala la Ruweng lililosababisha vifo vya watu wasiopungua 169 akionya kuwa ghasia zinazidi kuongeza hatari kwa wale waliokwishakimbia makazi yao. Pia ameeleza wasiwasi kuhusu kusambaratika kwa huduma muhimu, akisema uporaji na uharibifu wa vituo vya afya umeacha wanawake bila huduma muhimu za matibabu. “Wanawake wanajifungua bila huduma yoyote ya kitabibu kwa hatari kubwa ya kupoteza maisha,” amesema. UN Women inakadiria wanawake na wasichana milioni 5 nchini Sudan Kusini wanahitaji msaada wa kibinadamu mwaka huu, wakiwemo milioni 2.5 wanaohitaji huduma zinazohusiana na ukatili wa kijinsia.Akitoa wito wa hatua za haraka, Bi. Mutavati amesema uongozi wa wanawake lazima ubaki kuwa kiini cha juhudi za amani na ametoa wito wa kuheshimiwa kwa kiwango cha asilimia 35 cha uwakilishi wa wanawake serikalini chini ya makubaliano ya amani. “Hakuna njia ya amani ya kudumu iliyothibitika zaidi kuliko uongozi wa wanawake,” amesema, huku pia akitaka ufadhili kwa mashirika yanayoongozwa na wanawake na msaada kwa kaya zinazoongozwa na wanawake. Wakati Sudan Kusini ikielekea katika uchaguzi wa mwaka huu 2026, Mkurugenzi huyo wa Kanda ya Afrika Mashariki na Kusini mwa Afrika wa UN Women ametoa wito wa kuwepo kwa mchakato wa uchaguzi unaoaminika, jumuishi na wa uwazi unaohakikisha ushiriki wa wanawake katika kila hatua. Amenukuliwa akisema, “tunatoa wito wa utekelezaji kamili na wa haraka” wa makubaliano ya amani,  na akasisitiza kuwa kulinda wanawake na wasichana na kuhakikisha wanashiriki katika uamuzi ni msingi wa kufikia amani ya kudumu.

This week, we are reporting from the Commission on the Status of Women — the world's largest gathering on gender equality, which is taking place at the United Nations headquarters in New York. We discuss the key talking points at the conference, including what's at stake amid a global regression in women's rights, as well as the conversations taking place on the sidelines of the main summit. Staying on the topic of gender equality and the U.N., we also explore the potential merger of two agencies — UN Women and UNFPA — and explore the latest updates on the race for the next U.N. Secretary-General. To dig into these stories, and others, Adva Saldinger sits down with Colum Lynch and Elissa Miolene for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series.

As Ukraine entered its fifth year of full-scale invasion, millions of people are struggling every day to keep the lights on, cook and heat their homes amid extreme winter conditions.This fourth winter has been particularly harsh with 65 per cent of Ukraine's energy generation capacity methodically destroyed.Women and children are bearing the brunt of energy blackouts, which undermine their safety, protection, and economic security, according to gender agency, UN Women.Halyna Skipalska who runs the Ukrainian Foundation for Public Health spoke to UN News's Nathalie Minard about the growing impact of war on women and children's mental health.

“Africa is flowing with resources from oil, diamonds, critical minerals. But at times we find that in our cities, at the bus stations, there's no toilets with running water in a continent which is rich with possibilities. So it's how that intentionality, that political will, to put resources to what matters most.”Daniel Dadzie speaks to Dr Nyaradzayi Gumbonzvanda, UN Assistant Secretary-General and UN deputy director for women, about the need for Africa to focus on the priorities of its people, such as water and sanitation.The interview took place at the African Union summit in Addis Abbaba, Ethiopia, where the theme was: “Ensuring sustainable water availability and safe sanitation systems.” It's part of Agenda 2063 - the organisation's 50-year strategic framework. But Gumbonzvanda says these things can't wait fifty years, and that they need to be a priority for African leaders now.In her role as deputy lead for UN Women, she is also increasingly concerned by the stories she's been hearing from the women of Sudan, where the civil war continues to rage. She says that regional bodies and the UN are not doing enough to protect the war-torn country's women and children.The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.

「“性別”の固定観念払拭へ「アンステレオタイプ展」開催　日常的な思い込みを問い直すきっかけの場に 」　ジェンダー平等について考える「国際女性デー」を前に、日常に潜む固定観念を問い直す展覧会が始まりました。東京・渋谷区の国連大学で2日から開催されている「アンステレオタイプ展」。「アンステレオタイプ」とは、人種や性別に対する固定観念をなくすことです。8日の国際女性デーを前に、日常的な思い込みを問い直すきっかけの場にしてほしいとUN Women＝国連女性機関が主催しています。会場には取り組みに賛同する12の企業や団体が制作した20作品が並びます。グループ社員の女性比率が8割を超える資生堂の作品には、「女子力は、圧力にもなる」という文字が。資生堂 クリエイティブディレクター・赤星薫さん：「女子力」は日本では気軽な褒め言葉として使われたりする言葉だと思うが、例えば「気を利かせる」とか「料理がうまい」とか無言のうちに、期待されているうちに自分もそうしないといけないと思い込んでしまうようなことを「圧力」という言葉で表現した作品。何げない言葉に潜む無意識のジェンダーバイアスを問う作品です。その他にも、善意と偏見の境界のあいまいさを表現した作品などが展示されています。資生堂 クリエイティブディレクター・赤星薫さん：上下関係とかがないはずなのに圧力・見えない期待とか、そういうことにとらわれているシーンは日本には結構多いのかなと思って。世界経済フォーラムが2025年に発表したジェンダー・ギャップ指数では日本は148カ国中118位と、ジェンダー平等の遅れが浮き彫りになっています。UN Women 日本事務所・焼家直絵所長：このままのペースでいくと、ジェンダー平等を達成するには123年もかかるということで非常に懸念されている。表現・広告、そういったポジティブな力を使って何か行動を起こすきっかけになれば良いなと。

The Deputy Executive Director for UN Women, Dr Nyaradzayi Gumbonzvanda has made an appeal for a ceasefire in Sudan - while speaking at the just concluded Africa Union Summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. UN Women says of the 12 million people displaced by the Sudan war, more than half of them are women and children. This adds to the documented cases of mass and systemic rape and the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war.   And Zambia's inflation is at its lowest for the first time in three years. At 9.4%, the government says the favourable cost of living is as a result of strong copper sales and low food prices.

Policy Advocacy: Part 4: What every domestic violence survivor & advocate should know about Artificial Intelligence. In our fourth Policy Matters presentation, we interview Adam Dodge, founder of EndTAB.org, about what every survivor and advocate should know about Artificial Intelligence. This episode was curated by the Maitri Policy Advocacy Program and facilitated by Smitha Chandrasekhar, a Maitri volunteer who is deeply invested in promoting the rights of survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault to their own bodies and autonomy.The United Nations Program for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women, also known as UN Women, reported in November 2025 that approximately 16 to 58 percent of women worldwide are impacted by technology-facilitated violence, an issue only being amplified by the onset of AI-powered online abuse. AI and large language models that have been trained on content containing gender stereotypes and are now integrated into many everyday platforms, such as X's Grok AI or Meta AI. These platforms are now being used to further propagate the spread of gender based abuse in an even more violent and widespread manner than before.Since the boom of artificial intelligence via ChatGPT in 2023, AI has become a household name and topic across the globe. In this new reality, both new challenges and new opportunities are at the forefront of the conversation for domestic violence survivors and advocates alike.Our guest is Adam Dodge. As the founder of EndTAB.org (Ending Technology-Enabled Abuse), and the Tech-savvy parent (https://www.thetechsavvyparent.com/) Adam's work is characterized by his dedication to addressing the existing and future threats posed by technology to victims of crime and gender-based violence. He haswritten extensively on technology-enabled abuse, non-consensual pornography, and created the first resource guide for victims of Nonconsensual Deepfake Pornography. Adam spends a great deal of his time delivering innovative technology-enabled abuse presentations to organizations around the world. He is also a special advisor to the Coalition Against Stalkerware and sits on the World Economic Forum's Pathways toDigital Justice Advisory Committee.

Episode 1898: Vicki Cook and Amy Blacklock break down why saying yes to unpaid work can undermine your business, time, and income, especially for women already carrying the weight of unpaid labor. They share clear, thoughtful criteria to help freelancers decide when working for free might serve their goals, and when it's better to walk away. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://womenwhomoney.com/work-for-free-exposure-experience/ Quotes to ponder: "Working for exposure is not the 'free advertising' that people claim it to be." "You aren't making money from paying customers when you choose to spend time producing free content, goods, or other services." "Freelancers striving to build their dream career don't work for free simply to help out others."

We interrupt these interruptions to bring you a website that I didn't know existed until right before Thanksgiving. When you see it, remember, women in the US voted in 2020 and 2024 to support this because the administration who supported it promised to protect abortion. We might get back to the USAIDs coup or UN Women tonight, but probably not because I'm going off on this.

What does it feel like when your photos are taken, manipulated and shared online without your consent? That's the reality for 23-year-old Debra Nashipae, a Kenyan student and aspiring musician whose images were turned into deepfake pornography – a form of digital abuse that experts say is increasing rapidly. According to UN Women, 90–95% of all deepfakes online are non-consensual pornographic images, and around 90% of those depict women. Their report also highlights that half of the world's women and girls lack legal protection against this kind of digital violence. In this episode of Focus on Africa: The Conversation, host Nkechi Ogbonna spoke to Debra about her experience, along with her lawyer, Mercy Mutemi, who is advocating for justice and better protection of digital rights.

  The World Bank reports that, "today, more than half of the world's population – over 4 billion people – lives in cities." It also estimates that this shift is going to continue, in fact to DOUBLE to nearly 70% – or 7 out of every 10 people will live in cities by 2050. That's only 25 years away. At the same time, extreme weather events are increasingly devastating cities – we have all witnesses how Hurricane Melissa decimated Jamaica last week, for example, destroying home and businesses, schools, houses of worship, government buildings, everything. So what can, should and ARE cities doing to keep their people and economies safe and climate resilient?  What's working and what can we learn from them?  Today we're going to find out from four extraordinary women from across the globe."

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_You know that feeling when someone tells you you're "too intense" or "ask too many questions"? Lucia Kanter St. Amour has built an entire career on exactly those traits.Lucia is a negotiation expert, law professor, and the kind of ADHD woman who writes Amazon reviews so detailed she got invited to their exclusive Vine program. She's the author of For the Forces of Good, a guide to everyday negotiation that flips traditional power dynamics, and The Covert Buccaneer, a nonlinear novel that mirrors how her ADHD brain actually works. With a background in global law and leadership at UN Women, she combines strategy with a genuine understanding of how women navigate the world.Diagnosed with ADHD at 54 after a friend casually mentioned she'd known for decades, Lucia finally understood why she'd always felt like a "disco ball" in a world of dimmer switches. Her childhood was marked by misdiagnosed seizures (likely panic attacks from severe bullying) and years on experimental medication that left her struggling academically. But she found her superpowers in foreign languages, piano, and tennis, activities that naturally regulated her nervous system.In this conversation, she and Tracy explore how the traits that make us feel "too much" actually become negotiation superpowers. Our intensity, emotional intelligence, and hyperfocus are assets, not liabilities. They discuss why women avoid negotiating (it's costing us over a million dollars by retirement), how to practice with everyday situations like getting your toddler to eat dinner, and why deep listening transforms every interaction. Lucia also shares her journey from hating rigid law firm work to creating negotiation tools designed specifically for ADHD brains.Whether you're asking for a raise, navigating family dynamics, or simply wanting to be truly heard, Lucia shows that being "too much" isn't something to manage. It's your greatest strength.Resources:Website: https://www.pactumfactum.com/  YouTube: https://www.instagram.com/santaluciasf  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/luSend a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Instead of Struggling to figure out what to do next? ADHD isn't a productivity problem. It's an identity problem. That's why most strategies don't stick—they weren't designed for how your brain actually works. Your ADHD Brain is A-OK Academy is different. It's a patented, science-backed coaching program that helps you stop fighting your brain and start building a life that fits.
