At the 6th Africa Resilience Forum in Abidjan, IOM Regional Director for West and Central Africa, Sylvia Ekra, called for bold investments in prevention to reduce the cost of crises and build lasting peace. Her message is clear: invest in peace before conflict and make prevention the cornerstone of our efforts. From early warning systems to integrated infrastructure and social cohesion initiatives, these are the foundations of a future built on resilience, not reaction.

Créée en 1995 à Bouar dans la préfecture de la Nana-Mambéré, la Radio Maïgaro s’est imposée comme un levier incontournable du développement communautaire, de la paix et de la cohésion sociale. Longtemps limitée à une diffusion en soirée, la station a élargi ses plages horaires grâce à l’appui de la MINUSCA, à travers son partenariat avec le Réseau des médias communautaires de Centrafrique (RMCC). Aujourd’hui, cette station radio émet chaque jour de 07h à 11h et de 16h à 20h30, couvrant un rayon d’environ 250 kilomètres, incluant la préfecture de la Nana-Mambéré, ainsi qu'une partie des préfectures de la Mambéré-Kadéï et de l’Ouham-Pendé.

À Salamabila, en République démocratique du Congo, Médecins Sans Frontières a prêté assistance à plus de 16 000 personnes survivantes de violences sexuelles depuis 2019 grâce à un modèle de soins communautaires. Nous avons formé 13 agentes de santé reproductive, dont beaucoup sont elles-mêmes des survivantes. Depuis six ans, elles ont offert des soins et du soutien à deux tiers des personnes auxquelles MSF a prêté assistance et sont devenues des piliers de leurs communautés. Alors que nos équipes se préparent à se retirer, MSF et les autorités sanitaires de Salamabila ont lancé un appel aux autorités, bailleurs de fonds et partenaires humanitaires pour assurer la continuité des soins.

💡 We spend billions cleaning up after disasters — but prevention costs far less. Every year, the world pours money into recovery efforts that could have been avoided through smarter investments in disaster risk reduction and resilience. From climate change to urban flooding, we keep reacting instead of preparing. Our current risk blindness is absurd: 🛠️ Every year, we pour money into mopping the floor instead of fixing the roof 🌧️ We buy an umbrella after we are soaked It’s time to invest in resilience, not response. Because resilience pays — saving lives, livelihoods, and billions in economic losses. Join the movement to build a safer, more sustainable future. 👉 Learn more at https://iddrr.undrr.org/ #ResiliencePays #FundResilienceNotDisasters #DRRDay #DisasterRiskReduction #UNDRR #PreventionSavesLives

“This turned into an ethical struggle for truth — an existential struggle for life” Congratulations to María Corina Machado, awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her courageous leadership advancing democracy in Venezuela. In remarks at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Annual Meeting last year, Machado carried that message to an audience of global leaders, emphasizing the role that women have played in pushing for peace and democratic values:. “This journey, we have come in less than 2 years, we awakened a country. A country that we’ve seen sad, without hope, and divided. We went from communities, tiny, tiny communities, to big cities, and we unified around values.” “And we had women certainly in the front lines, because it’s all about families. It’s about living with dignity, with justice, with opportunities for all, and freedom. And what every single woman told me around Venezuela is, ‘I want to bring my kids back home.'” Learn more and watch her full remarks at: https://www.clintonfoundation.org/press-and-news/general/maria-corina-machado-venezuelan-opposition-leader-wins-nobel-peace-prize/

Israel’s war against Iran and its regional proxies has redrawn elements of the Middle Eastern geopolitical map, exposing both the reach and the fragility of Iran’s strategic ambitions. After years of investing heavily in its “axis of resistance” stretching from Hezbollah in Lebanon to militias in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen—Iran finds itself confronting a radically altered landscape in 2025. Its proxies are weakened, its domestic infrastructure damaged, and its deterrence credibility under question. Perhaps most notably, the aftermath of the war has triggered a renewed nuclear standoff with Washington fuelled by the uncompromising posture of the Trump administration. The conflict in June saw strikes directly targeting facilities linked to Iran’s nuclear weapons efforts. In a shift that has alarmed both allies and adversaries, Tehran has ruled out any new negotiations on its nuclear program, citing the military strikes as a breach of sovereignty and a collapse of diplomatic norms. The Islamic Republic now faces urgent choices about how to respond as it navigates its most significant strategic crossroads in years. This discussion will offer timely insights into the future of Iran’s regional posture, the broader implications for Middle East security and where the region is heading next. Bringing together leading regional experts and policy analysts, the panel will examine key questions including: How is Iran recalibrating its regional approach in the wake of the June war and its escalating confrontation with the U.S.? What is the state of Iran’s relationships with Hezbollah, the Assad regime, and allied militias in Iraq and Yemen? Can Iran still sustain a deterrence strategy, or has it become too costly? How are rival powers such as the Gulf states, Turkey, and the United States adapting to Iran’s hardened stance and post-war vulnerabilities? What are the implications of Iran’s rejection of renewed nuclear negotiations for future regional conflict?

"If you are a government that wants to impose your will on the people, you have to control the information environment," says Hillary Clinton, former secretary of state and professor at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA). Clinton notes the ways governments could seek to control information to shape public perception and make it more difficult for people to form or defend opposing views. She discusses how limiting access to facts in both domestic and foreign policy contexts leads to decision-making that is driven by emotion and ideology instead of analysis or intelligence.

Chaque décision que nous prenons concernant l'éclairage de nos maisons, les moyens de transport que nous utilisons ou les technologies que nous encourageons a un impact sur la santé de la planète et le bien-être de toutes les espèces qui y vivent. Il est donc essentiel de prendre conscience de l'énergie que nous utilisons afin de réduire les émissions, de protéger la vie et de garantir que la Terre, en tant que territoire sacré, reste un lieu habitable pour tous les êtres qui y vivent. Chez Médecins du Monde, nous en sommes conscients et avons opté pour des panneaux solaires portables plutôt que des générateurs diesel pour nos missions dans les communautés isolées en Colombie. Grâce à #REact, l'outil développé par Action Contre la Faim Colombie et The Energy & Water Foundation, nous intégrons l'énergie propre dans l'action humanitaire. ➡️ Plus d'autonomie ➡️ Moins d'émissions ➡️ De meilleures conditions pour accompagner vers la santé 📲 Pour en savoir plus, rendez-vous sur react-tool.org ✅ Abonnez-vous à la chaîne YouTube de Médecins du Monde (et activez la cloche pour les notifications 🔔 !)

Americans are much more concerned than excited about the increased use of AI in daily life, with a majority saying they want more control over how AI is used in their lives. Far larger shares say AI will erode than improve people’s ability to think creatively and form meaningful relationships. At the same time, a majority is open to letting AI assist them with day-to-day tasks and activities. Most Americans don’t support AI playing a role in personal matters such as religion or matchmaking. They’re more open to AI for heavy data analysis, such as for weather forecasting and developing new medicines. Americans feel strongly that it’s important to be able to tell if pictures, videos or text were made by AI or by humans. Yet many don’t trust their own ability to spot AI-generated content.

2025 marks a landmark year for Europe’s ‘bridge between Earth and space’. The European Space Agency’s Estrack satellite tracking network turns 50. Since its inception in 1975, Estrack – ESA’s global network of ground stations – has formed the vital communication bridge between satellites in orbit and mission control at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt, Germany. Now comprising six stations spanning six countries, Estrack has grown into a strategic asset for Europe, enabling communication with spacecraft, transmitting commands and receiving scientific data. The network keeps an eye on satellites no matter their location: tracking them across Earth orbit, voyaging to comets or asteroids, keeping station at the scientifically important Sun-Earth Lagrange points, and deep into our Solar System. It even keeps tabs on European launchers as they soar into orbit, ensuring no rocket is ever out of reach. This year, ESA is also expanding its deep space communication capabilities with the construction of a new 35-metre deep space antenna – the fourth of its kind. It will be joining the existing one at New Norcia station, Australia, to help meet the Agency's fast increasing data download needs.
