Wangari Maathai was not just a name; she was a blazing beacon of hope, a fierce warrior for the earth, a relentless advocate for justice in every leaf and every tree. From the heart of Kenya, she rose, weaving a tapestry of life and resilience through her groundbreaking Green Belt Movement. With every seed planted, she breathed life into the soil, intertwining the fight for environmental conservation with a passionate plea for human dignity. Her indomitable spirit shone brightly when she was honored with the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004, a monumental moment that made her the first African woman to grasp this prestigious accolade. Wangari's legacy will forever resonate, a stirring reminder that one person's love for the planet can ignite a global movement.

Wangari Maathai war die erste Frau des afrikanischen Kontinents, die mit dem Friedensnobelpreis ausgezeichnet worden ist. Mit dem Pflanzen von Bäumen verhalft sie nicht nur Frauen zu mehr Einkommen und Selbstbestimmung, sondern sie verteidigte mit Hilfe ihres Umweltprojekts auch die Demokratie.

We continue the story of Nobel Prize winning environmentalist Dr Wangari Maathai, who defied convention, financial hurdles, and the violent opposition of her own government to make her Green Belt Movement into an enduring worldwide force for societal good. She and her colleagues planted almost 40 million trees and empowered tens of thousands of women across the world to discover their own power to improve their own communities… from the ground up.

Wangari Maathai understood the vital connections between living things and the Earth; of local communities and the wider world. It is true that many trees make a mighty forest, and Maathai's Green Belt Movement made it clear to us all that the most important change for the greater good is one that each individual makes in their own backyard... a philosophy which would earn her the Nobel Peace Prize.

Russia in World History: A Transnational Approach (Bloomsbury, 2022) uses a comparative framework to understand Russian history in a global context. The book challenges the idea of Russia as an outlier of European civilization by examining select themes in modern Russian history alongside cases drawn from the British Empire. Choi Chatterjee analyzes the concepts of nation and empire, selfhood and subjectivity, socialism and capitalism, and revolution and the world order in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. In doing so she rethinks many historical narratives that bluntly posit a liberal West against a repressive, authoritarian Russia. Instead Chatterjee argues for a wider perspective which reveals that imperial practices relating to the appropriation of human and natural resources were shared across European empires, both East and West. Incorporating the stories of famous thinkers, such as Leo Tolstoy, Emma Goldman, Wangari Maathai, Arundhati Roy, among others. This unique interpretation of modern Russia is knitted together from the varied lives and experiences of those individuals who challenged the status quo and promoted a different way of thinking. This is a ground-breaking book with big and provocative ideas about the history of the modern world, and will be vital reading for students of both modern Russian and world history.

Russia in World History: A Transnational Approach (Bloomsbury, 2022) uses a comparative framework to understand Russian history in a global context. The book challenges the idea of Russia as an outlier of European civilization by examining select themes in modern Russian history alongside cases drawn from the British Empire. Choi Chatterjee analyzes the concepts of nation and empire, selfhood and subjectivity, socialism and capitalism, and revolution and the world order in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. In doing so she rethinks many historical narratives that bluntly posit a liberal West against a repressive, authoritarian Russia. Instead Chatterjee argues for a wider perspective which reveals that imperial practices relating to the appropriation of human and natural resources were shared across European empires, both East and West. Incorporating the stories of famous thinkers, such as Leo Tolstoy, Emma Goldman, Wangari Maathai, Arundhati Roy, among others. This unique interpretation of modern Russia is knitted together from the varied lives and experiences of those individuals who challenged the status quo and promoted a different way of thinking. This is a ground-breaking book with big and provocative ideas about the history of the modern world, and will be vital reading for students of both modern Russian and world history.

Hoje é dia do "Influencers da Ciência", um Spin-Off do podcast "Intervalo de Confiança". Neste programa trazemos o nome de Influencers que de fato trouxeram algo de positivo para a sociedade, aqueles que expandiram as fronteiras do conhecimento científico e hoje permitiram o desenvolvimento de diversas áreas. Nesse episódio, Sofia Massaro nos conta a história da cientista de ativista ambiental Wangari Maathai, mulher queniana que deixou um legado inegável em sua luta pela conservação ambiental e desenvolvimento sustentável. Ela se tornou a primeira mulher da África Oriental e Central a conquistar um doutorado, um marco significativo que sublinhava sua dedicação à ciência e à educação. Como fundadora do Movimento Cinturão Verde em 1977, Maathai combinou seu conhecimento científico com ações práticas ao liderar a plantação de mais de 51 milhões de árvores no Quênia, abordando questões de erosão do solo, desertificação e pobreza rural. Sua abordagem inovadora em integrar a ciência ambiental com o ativismo social lhe rendeu o Prêmio Nobel da Paz em 2004, tornando-a a primeira mulher africana a receber tal honra. Wangari Maathai permanece uma figura inspiradora, destacando-se como cientista, ativista e pioneira na luta pelo meio ambiente e justiça social e, por isso, ela é nossa homenageada no programa de hoje.A Pauta foi escrita por Tatiane do Vale.

“The work of the Green Belt Movement stands as a testament to the power of grassroots organizing, proof that one person's simple idea—that a community should come together to plant trees—can make a difference, first in one village, then in one nation, and now across Africa.”—President Barack Obama #storytime #biographies #childrensstories #childrensbook #readaloud #readaloudtokids #readaloudtochildren #readaloudstorybooks #reading #elementaryschoolreaders #booksforchildren #booksforblackchildren #goodchildrensbooks Wangari Muta Maathai (April 1, 1940 – September 25, 2011) was an internationally renowned political, environmental and social activist. In 1971, she became the first woman in both East and Central Africa to earn a doctorate (University of Nairobi). In 2004, Maathai became the first African woman as well as environmentalist to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. During her lifetime, Maathai worked tirelessly to end the devastation of Kenya's forests and lands caused by development. In 1977, she founded “The Green Belt Movement”, a non-governmental organization focused on environmental conservation, planting trees and women's rights. Maathai conducted seminars about civic and environmental education and taught women the power of collaboration for peace, economic sustainability and democracy. "Women needed income and they needed resources because theirs were being depleted," Maathai explained to People magazine. "So we decided to solve both problems together." Because of Maathai's leadership, sacrifice, and commitment, more than 30 million trees have been planted in Kenya. Moreover, over 30,000 women have been empowered with new skills and opportunities. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/avant-garde-books/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/avant-garde-books/support

#週三女孩日 每週10分鐘用聽的認識一位改變世界的女性！ podcast『 5歲都要懂的國際觀 』 https://yeslara.com/podcast_平台 --------- Lara的女兒剛剛過了她9歲的生日, 今年她許願的禮物是 - 種樹！一來因為學校最近的科學課在學習電力, 他們認識到了各種不同的電力來源, 她最喜歡的是風力發電, 因為風力是屬於綠色能源, 相對比較環保。二來是女兒很喜歡的一個DIY Youtuber 也在他的頻道上面推廣種樹運動, 因此今年的禮物就直接給我們網站, 讓我們上去幫她“種樹” 說到種樹, 就不能不介紹這位2004年的諾貝爾和平獎得主 - Wangari Maathai. 來自東非肯亞的一個小村莊, Wangari靠著她強烈的學習動機申請到了美國大學的獎學金, 在她學成歸國後, 發現小時候的家園, 不見了！那充滿綠意的林蔭小道, 成了光禿禿的沙漠....Wangari沒有嘆息離開, 她對家園的愛、對地球的關心, 讓她開啟了“綠帶運動”, 40年間, 不但種下了超過4千萬棵樹, 更直接促進了50萬婦女的就業、兒童的就學。 一起來聽聽Wangari的故事吧～ #arica #planttree #teamtree #wangari #wangarimaathai #nobelprize #tree #週三女孩日 #shepersisted #laraglobalpedia #5歲都要懂的國際觀 #她堅持 #她的故事 ********** podcast『 5歲都要懂的國際觀 https://yeslara.com/podcast_平台 節目宗旨： #國際觀無感置入腦袋 #5歲都聽得懂的國際新聞 #給孩子聽的國際觀 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 留言告訴我你對這一集的想法： https://open.firstory.me/user/ckdfjls64vzob0804ysg8nyp2/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting

Vandaag het gesprek met Ralien Bekkers. Ralien Bekkers werkt met overheden en instituties op het gebied van klimaat. Eerder werkte ze bij de Verenigde Naties en studeerde ze af aan Yale University. Laten we beginnen… In gesprek met Ralien leerde ik: Na het zien van de film An inconvenient truth van Al Gore kwam de grote van de klimaatcrisis enorm binnen. Gelijkgestemden opzoeken en kleine en concrete acties om het gevoel van moedeloosheid om te zetten in, ik ga er in ieder geval iets aan doen. We kunnen ons het niet veroorloven om in de gevoelens van angst te blijven zitten en niets te doen. Effectieve klimaatactie Ayana Elizabeth Johnson: Wat brengt je plezier, wat moet er gebeuren en waar ben je goed in? (boek All we can save) - zoek je eigen klimaatsquad Hoe kan je met samenwerken bijdragen aan de grote veranderingen die in de maatschappij nodig zijn. (niet alleen individueel) Vliegen is het lastigste dilemma haar in combinatie met haar international functie en een partner in de VS. Klimaat staat nog te weinig op de agenda van de ministers van financiën. Als covoorzitter is Nederland nu betrokken om dit te veranderen. Belangrijk is ook de rol van publieke financiering. Wat moedig je aan vanuit de overheid, vervuiling of welzijn en verduurzaming? Wat is niet goed gegaan en wat kun je daarvan leren. Rechtvaardigheid, ongelijkheid en inclusiviteit die nu ontbreken in de maatschappij. Feminien leiderschap voor het oplossen van de klimaatcrisis: 1. Samen werking voor de samenleving 2. Inclusie en empowerment 3. Zorgzaamheid en compassie 4. Ruimte voor emotie en intuïtie 5. Verbinding en systeemdenken 6. Bouwen op en voor generaties 7. Vrouwen- en mensen rechten Voorbeeld leiders voor Ralien zijn Jacinda Ardern , Sanna Marin, Christine Lagarde, Kristalina Georgieva, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Angeline Heine-Reimers, en Wangari Maathai met de Green Belt Movement. Als man je uitspreken en online vrouwen ondersteunen bij haat en aanvallen. Als je economie studeert krijg je nog veel te weinig mee over klimaat, circulair, minderen. Er veranderd te weinig en te langzaam in het leren over dit onderwerp op school en opleidingen. In 2009 is beloofd dat er 100 miljard zou zijn vanaf 2020 voor de armere landen om hun klimaatbeleid te kunnen uitvoeren. Dit is de afgelopen jaren nog niet bereikt. De ontwikkelingssamenwerking wordt nog steeds gedomineerd vanuit de westerse landen dat ze bepalen wat ze moeten doen, omdat ze geld geven. We financieren nog steeds fossiele projecten in het buitenland. Met haar boek jonge vrouwen aanmoedigen om actie te ondernemen. Iedereen wil een goed en waardig leven kunnen leiden. Armoede is onderdeel van het klimaatprobleem.

Every generation throws up a maverick - and Africa has had many! Laila introduces Cai to Wangari Maathai, who rewrote the rules for environmentalism in east Africa, and faced down stiff resistance in the process. Cai looks back to Cameroon's colonial era leader Njoya Ibrahim, a man of many talents who could have been anything - but, above all, achieved the status of an African hero.

Clement speaks to Vusi Gumbi, a Researcher at the Institute for Pan African Thought and Conversation about life and times of Kenyan politician and environmental activist.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Climate crusader–Wangari Maathai, and her book, "The Greenbelt Movement", and climate artist–Shaq Koyok!

The first song in today's Earth Riot asks, "What did they do to the great outdoors?". The Fabulous Unknown would be a better description of the natural world than the “great outdoors”. The word "Great"— how can we decolonize that word and heal from there?   Some people who have been called "Great" also seem to have The Fabulous Unknown of the natural world in them. Wangari Maathai, Muhammad Ali, Che Guevera, and all the unknown revolutionaries who gave their lives for our freedom create our beloved ecosystem. The Unknown has eyes we need to see through and ears that allow us to listen. That's why both making love and making justice feel so good.

In this warm and thoughtful program you'll by dazzled by the mystery of Terry's dying mother's request for her to read her journals, but not until after her death. Terry found 3 shelves of journals only to discover all of them were blank. Puzzle about this mystery along with Terry in this far-reaching dialogue about finding one's authentic voice. Terry Tempest Williams is a naturalist, environmentalist, and award-winning author. She is a recipient of the Lannan Literary Fellowship in creative nonfiction and the 1997 Guggenheim Fellowship, and served as naturalist-in-residence at the Utah Museum of Natural History. In 2014, on the 50th Anniversary of the Wilderness Act, Ms. Williams received the Sierra Club's John Muir Award honoring a distinguished record of leadership in American conservation. She divides her time between Castle Valley, Utah, and Moose, Wyoming. She is the author of many books including Refuge: An Unnatural History of Family and Place (Pantheon 1991), Red: Patience and Passion in the Desert (Vintage Books 2002), An Unspoken Hunger: Stories from the Field (Vintage Books 1995) , Leap (Vintage 2001), The Open Space of Democracy (The Orion Society 2004), Finding Beauty in a Broken World (Pantheon 2008), When Women Were Birds (Sarah Crichton Books: Farrar, Straus and Giroux 2012) and The Hour of Land: A Personal Topography of America's National Parks (Sarah Crichton Books, Farrar, Straus and Giroux 2016) Interview Date: 5/5/2012 Tags: Terry Tempest Williams, Wangari Maathai, voice, speaking, courage, silence, Mother Tongue, reproductive freedom, language, emotional intelligence, Mormon, birth control, abortion, Carden School, teaching children, Utah wildlands, wilderness, storytelling, Wilderness Society, embodied language, uncertainty, questions, questioning, deep listening, journaling, journal, authentic voice, sisterhood, crisis, ecology of the mind, Ecology/Nature/Environment, Social Change/Politics, Writing, Women's Studies, Philosophy

When we disrupt nature, we disrupt balance, which can change ecosystems for years to come. Someone who knew just how delicate that balance could be, was Wangari Maathai. In this episode we hear about how an unassuming fig tree led to Wangari finding purpose, which would not only change her life, but the lives of many for years to come.

Life on Earth is complex right now! Whether you are alert to refugee crises, signs of environmental damage and climate change, severe storms, health effects from air and water pollution, or social and political turmoil, you could make a list of a lot of things that worry you or even lead you to feel despair.But are the anxiety and eco-anxiety that have become normal our best response to the crises we face? Neuroscience and the history of activism suggest an alternative approach that's more beneficial for us as individuals, and far more effective for healing our world. We're learning that:·       Anxiety creates a freeze response in our brains that shuts down the optimism and innovation needed to solve crises. ·       People who bemoan social problems or environmental problems often make few or no contributions to solutions.·       Neuroscientist Rick Hanson describes the human brain's state of anxiety, stress, and pessimism as the activity of our reactive (and more primitive) ‘red brain.' Conversely, our ‘green brain' state is our responsive (and more evolved) mode of confidently meeting challenges and enjoying life's pleasures without getting stuck in the stress response. ·       We can see the effects of red brain and green brain play out in human history and the work of current activists such as Wangari Maathai and Boyan Slat.·       It may be fashionable to moan and complain in ‘red brain' and talk about our dystopian future, but I challenge you to realize that actually we are designed to respond creatively to our world, not sit frozen in despair.·       If you want to suffer less and help a lot more, learn to curate your ‘green brain.' Listen in to learn how.·       Living as much as possible in green brain allows you to be someone who assists with regeneration for people and planet, rather than someone who holds us back.

Africa is responsible for only less than 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Yet its people are already suffering some of the world's most devastating climate impacts. For Wanjira Mathai, Regional Director for Africa and Vice President at the World Resources Institute, and the daughter of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Wangari Maathai, this raises a central moral question: When those most affected are those least responsible, how can those most responsible address that injustice?
