  • It’s Up to the Women
    Nov 21 2024
    In 2015, the world pledged to achieve gender equality by 2030 as part of the U.N.’s Sustainable Development Goals. Nearly a decade later, it’s clear the target won’t be met, with the World Economic Forum estimating gender parity is still 131 years away. While some progress has been made, particularly in Europe and North America, much of the Global South lags behind—though countries like Saudi Arabia, UAE, Singapore, and Chile are notable exceptions. Achieving real change demands a fundamental shift in thinking and action. That’s why we invited Zubaida Bai, CEO of the Grameen Foundation, to join us on New Thinking for a New World. She believes gender equality is not only essential but achievable—if we focus on bold, systemic change.

    Oct 31 2024
    Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank have long felt abandoned by the world, facing deadly, low-intensity conflict with Israel. The October 7th attacks and the brutal response have made it impossible to imagine a return to the previous, unstable status quo. But all wars end, and survivors, especially Gaza’s youth, will bear lasting scars. Could this tragedy lead to a better future and even a Palestinian state, or will the crisis persist? Our guest, Italian war reporter Francesca Borri, has lived in the West Bank since 2007, respected by both Arabs and Israelis. Notably, she was the first Western journalist to interview Yahya Sinwar, facilitating direct talks between Hamas and Israel.
