With live coverage of the COP21 climate summit (Paris Dec 2015) this episode explores the ethics of direct action as a way to make sense of climate change.  An issue that divides the public and excites the media to what extent can it achieve meaningful political and social change?  


GBG Ep. 3 Direct Action

How can minimalism help us develop and maintain clarity of mind? Can pacifiers be useful? How do we maintain a minimalist lifestyle? How do we stay grounded with so much going on?

I wrote and produced this track not only through the early hours but also whilst in an extremely dark place mentally. In fact you could say producing this track possibly saved my life. I would like to dedicate this track to a good friend, my sorella, Nikki Luciano who gave me the inspiration to not only create but also to live without even knowing. Thank you Nikki.

Lost Within

In 2014 Professor James Fairhead's research played a crucial role in responding to the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.  An epidemic with many similarities to the current Covid 19 pandemic, Ebola threatened both the physical and social body of the infected regions.  In this episode of the Impacted podcast we hear about how understanding Human behaviour and cultural motivation is an essential part of mitigating the spread of any disease.
  
James Fairhead is a Professor Of Social Anthropology at the University of Sussex. His research focuses on environmental and medical anthropology and he has conducted extensive fieldwork principally in West and Central Africa.

The researcher would like to further thank all those involved in the Ebola Response Anthropology Platform, including Professor Melissa Leach (@IDS), Melissa Parker (@ the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine), and Dominique Millimouno for his research scoping exercise that ERAP supported.
