Po zniesieniu przez Unię Europejską embarga na wwóz ukraińskiego zboża do Europy Polska i Węgry utrzymały jednostronne zakazy. Czy spór o zboże jest ilustracją poważnych napięć między Ukrainą i Polską? Z czego ten spór wynika i jak może zostać rozwiązany? Kongres Stanów Zjednoczonych zatwierdza kolejną transzę pomocy dla Ukrainy, ale sondaże pokazują, że Amerykanie są zmęczeni wojną i kwestionują podejście administracji do pomocy Ukrainie. Jak zareaguje Ukraina? Po krótkiej operacji wojskowej Azerbejdżan przejmuje kontrolę nad Górskim Karabachem. Co będzie z tamtejszymi Ormianami i czy rząd Armenii przetrwa kryzys? Iran i Stany Zjednoczone wymieniają więźniów, a Teheran dodatkowo dostaje 6 mld dolarów. Czy wymuszanie okupu jest dobrą polityką państwową? W Libii protesty przeciwko władzom, które nie umiały zapobiec skutkom gwałtownej powodzi. Jak rozdarcie kraju na dwie części wpływa na życie Libijczyków. Mikroskopijne państwo Vanuatu w centrum polityki Chin i Australii. Dlaczego? A także: dlaczego ludzie nadają dzieciom imię Stalin? Albo Hitler?

The Australian government has launched a new International Development Policy, and Darren is joined by Bridi Rice, CEO of the Development Intelligence Lab, for a discussion of all things development through an Australian lens. The conversation begins with some Development 101: what is “development? What are the goals of development policy and are they contested? How is development policy carried out in practice, and by whom? Bridi describes Australia's development policy community as coming out of a decade in a “defensive crouch” and provides an overview of the new policy. The conversation ranges widely, including a focus on geopolitics and China and the question of how a development policy can place a climate change agenda at its core.

Although Lisa Niver has traveled in far-off locales from Vanuatu to Nepal, received numerous accolades as an award-winning travel expert who has explored 102 countries and six continents, and is the founder of the website WeSaidGoTravel, what people don't realize is that this began from the wreckage of a rotten romance.   As a newlywed, Lisa was on the adventure of a lifetime. She had quit her job, rented her condo, and traveled around Asia. To the outside world, Lisa was a woman living out her dreams of exploring ancient ruins in Cambodia and seeing orangutans in Borneo. She kept a dark secret in private: an abusive relationship. But, when she found herself lying on a sidewalk in Thailand, looking up at the sky in severe pain, she knew things had to change. At age forty- seven, Niver found the courage to set course on a new life.   Feeling like a failure, pushing fifty, and moving home to her parents' house to start again from scratch, Lisa began taking one tiny "brave-ish" step at a time to take her life far away from the old one and into the adventurous world of travel writing. These small hurdles led to the challenge of trying fifty new things before turning fifty. From diving into shipwrecks, swimming with sharks, bobsledding at 3Gs, indulging in wild escapades, Lisa found herself traversing the world on a journey of reinvention, personal growth, and discovering what it actually means to be "brave."   Her new book Brave-ish chronicles Lisa's inspiring expeditions to distant corners of the world, including Myanmar, Cuba, Morocco, Kenya, and Mongolia, but this is more than a travelogue. Brave-ish inspires readers to dream big, take risks, and embrace the unknown to create a life filled with wonder and excitement, even when courage seems elusive.   In this episode, Lisa shares how she saved herself, took risks, embraced the unknown, and pressed the reset button when she fell off track. She also shares how she taught herself to rest, not quit. Lisa's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of perseverance.

This episode Darren is thrilled to be joined (for the second time) by Stephen Dziedzic of the ABC, perhaps the finest foreign affairs reporter in Australia and a dear friend of the podcast. While the episode commences with the premise of ‘stories that are bubbling beneath the surface', over time a clear theme emerges – the domestic politics of security pacts. The conversation begins with a new agreement between Papua New Guinea and the United States that seems to be delaying Canberra's efforts to conclude its own pact with Port Morseby. Next up is Vanuatu, where Australia was (surprisingly) able to procure the signing of a new security agreement when a new government took office last year, but which is now facing strong ratification headwinds. Meanwhile in Australia, grassroots discontent within the ruling Labor Party regarding AUKUS threatened to overflow at the party's annual conference this past week. The majority of the podcast was recorded on 11 August, with a quick postscript recorded on 20 August.  Australia in the World is written, hosted and produced by Darren Lim, with research and editing by Walter Colnaghi and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.

Looking Outside Openness: Marcel Braun, Pharmacist & Novartis Exhibition Director

In this episode of Looking Outside we explore living your life and career curiously through an openness to learning with trained pharmacist and director of the Novartis Pavillon exhibiting the wonders of medicine, Marcel Braun. Marcel studied medicine but throughout his career has remained open to entering new fields and living in new places, something he calls both accidental in drifting from one opportunity to another, and intentional as he ticked off ‘dream roles' from his bucket list. From roles in forensic accounting, corporate philanthropy, even national pharmacist for Vanuatu, and across disciplines ranging business administration, biology and chemistry … Marcel has worn many hats. He credits this to both chance (“What are the odds that I got to do everything I did?”) but equally to openness; as opportunities came up, scary or divergent as they may have been, Marcel first and immediate said yes, then worked out how to make it happen second.Committing yourself to new career paths doesn't mean it has to be forever, as Marcel says, “A career is like a ladder, you can climb up and realize it's leaning on the wrong wall.” Just as shifting careers doesn't mean a complete departure from what you did before. Today Marcel heads up the exhibition in Basel, Switzerland for Novartis' Pavillon, an exhibition that displays the past, present and future of medicine. While this may seem like a departure from pharmaceutical research or philanthropy, Marcel explains it's connected, as much of the work in medicine is about good communication. Medicine, science and treatments are detailed topics with complex histories that must be explained simply. Jo and Marcel, both having lived and worked in various parts of the world, also explore what it means to adapt to and learn a new culture when relocating (in Marcel's case, more then 11 times). Marcel says for him it's about learning the culture through curiosity, as often it is little differences that mean an act can show offense or respect. He also credits being able to speak at least a little of the native language in building comfort and confidence, and to staying away from ‘toxic' people who are unhappy with their experience (in other words, don't just hang out with frustrated expats).Marcel and Jo also discuss the benefits of building interdisciplinary skills, as a way to create more unique career paths and a unique identifier for yourself by combining seemingly unconnected backgrounds, training or cultures. Marcel did this, wearing his ‘pharma backpack' along with his ‘financial backpack', and found it's the cross-over of varied disciplines that helps you find new solutions to old problems. Despite having pushed himself into so many varied careers, Marcel says he wished he had said yes to more things. As it's often the case that you underestimate what you're capable of until you push yourself to the point past discomfort. But it's only when you keep your radar wide, and stay open, that you find those new opportunities because often, “You can't imagine what else could be out there”.--To look outside, Marcel became a passionate beekeeper. This is something that he never dared to start with extensive travels, and now has the time, patience and perseverance for. This is Marcel's place to settle and be in the ‘now', because when you're in the beehive you have to focus. He calls the experience fully immersive, from the noise of the bees to the stickiness of the honey, and therefore uses it as a way to refresh his senses like a holiday. And even though he has been stung painfully and many times, 15-20 stings per year, it doesn't deter him, in fact it reminds him constantly to stay in the moment.--Marcel Braun is the Director Novartis Exhibition at the newly opened Novartis Pavillon in Switzerland. Marcel took the “Wonders...
