Our troubled world can be a source of great joy, and great suffering. United Nations staff witness both, day in day out, as they serve humanity in some of the toughest places on earth. They do so at considerable risk, and with shrinking resources. Yet despite all the challenges, dedicated UN staff around the world continue to find the strength to keep making a difference to millions of lives. 

Join UN chief communicator Melissa Fleming as she gets to know the extraordinary people dedicating their lives to service. 

Coming soon from the United Nations, Season 11 of Awake at Night.

British workers must resolutely oppose the imperialist Labour party, which is complicit in, and the active perpetrator of, the Palestinian genocide.
Weighing just 2kg, the photograph of emaciated five-month-old Siwar Ashour is the latest image to horrify workers all over the world, as Israel continues to use mass starvation as a means of warfare against civilians. And if anyone was in any doubt about the deep complicity of the entire British political and media establishment, recent analysis suggests that the current ‘Labour’ government granted more weapons licenses to Israel in a three-month period last year than the previous Conservative government did over four years.

Heroic people of Gaza continue to resist murderous infamy

Rather than follow in the footsteps of his late father, a Nobel-prize winning writer, Gonzalo Vargas Llosa opted instead to serve humanity. Now the UN High Commissioner for Refugees’ Representative to Syria, he just witnessed a historic end to 14 years of conflict and crisis.

“There were these long, long lines of cars of Syrian refugees coming back from Lebanon. So many of them stopped the car the moment that they entered Syria, they got out of the car, they kissed the ground … saying we are so happy to be back in this new Syria.”

The fall of the Assad regime has brought fresh hope for millions of displaced Syrians. Yet with a lack of housing, services and jobs still preventing most from returning, the UN is calling for action to support returnees. In this episode, Gonzalo Vargas Llosa looks back on a career full of seismic turning points, and reflects on the painful sacrifices of a life spent in service.

S11-E1: What next for Syria’s refugees - Gonzalo V. Llosa -  UN High Commissioner for Refugees

Amapiano meets soul in "Hunger’s Cry" — a deeply moving house track inspired by the silent resilience of a young boy overlooked by the world. Crafted by none other than J-Bay's finest music producer, "ARK1". A multi genre producer making waves across the country, literally.

Opening with a hauntingly beautiful piano melody, the beat slowly lifts as a spiritual electric guitar weaves emotion into every note. A rich, expressive saxophone cries through the rhythm like a voice from the streets — echoing hunger, hope, and the search for dignity.

This is more than music. It's a journey through the eyes of a child walking barefoot through a world that refuses to see him. A sonic reminder of the struggle hidden in plain sight.

Let the log drum heartbeat guide you. Let the melody remind you to feel.

Hunger's Cry

Die humanitäre Situation in Gaza ist derzeit katastrophal. Fast alle Menschen leiden unter akutem Hunger, obwohl nur wenige Kilometer entfernt tausende Hilfstransporter bereitstehen, um Hilfe zu leisten. Doch der Zugang wird blockiert.

Ralf Südhof, Direktor des Center for Humanitarian Action, erläutert im Interview die dramatische Lage vor Ort und erklärt die Herausforderungen, mit denen Hilfsorganisationen konfrontiert sind. Er gibt Einblicke in die Arbeit von Organisationen wie Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch und dem Internationalen Roten Kreuz, die sich für die Einhaltung des humanitären Völkerrechts einsetzen.

Interview mit Ralf Südhof, Direktor des Center for Humanitarian Action

Die thematische Vielfalt der August-Sendung ist groß, denn wir blicken in drei völlig unterschiedliche Regionen der Welt mit ganz unterschiedlichen Problemlagen.
Zunächst wollen wir nach Gaza schauen, wo sie die Situation für die Zivilbevölkerung in den letzten Monaten immer mehr zugespitzt hat. Anuk hat sich darüber mit Ralf Südhof vom Center for Humanitarian Action unterhalten.

Antonia hat sich mit den Protesten der jungen Generation Kenias beschäftigt. Die so genannte Gen Z ging zunächst gegen die ungerechte Steuerpolitik auf die Straßen, dann auch für einen ganz allgemeinen Politikwechsel in Kenia. Dabei wurde sie teilweise sehr brutal und auch mit Todesfällen von der Polizei bekämpft.

Und unser Kollege David Graaf sprach mit dem Journalisten Tobias Lambert im Rahmen dessen Freiburg Besuchs über sein Buch „Gescheiterte Utopie? Venezuela ein Jahrzehnt nach Hugo Chavez“.

With her background in human rights law, Georgette Gagnon was once said to represent the conscience of war. Currently serving as the Secretary-General’s Deputy Special Representative for Afghanistan, she has been devastated by the sweeping loss of rights for women and girls there.

“You used to see across the country hundreds of girls going to school... Now, of course, you don't see that, and it's heartbreaking. It's such a huge loss for the entire society,” she says. 

Afghanistan has one of the highest numbers of people in need of humanitarian support, and drastic cuts to humanitarian assistance affect access to critical care for millions. In this episode, Georgette Gagnon shares her hopes and fears for a country close to her heart, and reflects on a career serving in some of the world’s toughest places, from Syria to Sudan and Libya.

S11-E3: Why I’ll always champion Afghan women - Georgette Gagnon, UN  Deputy Special Rep Afghanistan

Yacoub El Hillo spent more than thirty years serving refugees and displaced people in some of the world’s worst conflict zones. But when cataclysmic war erupted in his hometown of Khartoum, Sudan, the Regional Director for Africa at the United Nations Development Coordination Office (DCO) had to help his own family flee the violence.

“I don't think there's any home in Khartoum that was spared … the assumption is that everything is gone.”

Having served in more than 16 duty stations, from Liberia to Syria, Somalia and Afghanistan, Yacoub El Hillo has rarely seen any conflict as devastating as the one currently decimating Sudan. In this episode, he reflects on the scale of the human suffering there, looks back on a rich and varied career with the UN, and shares why all nations deserve a chance to strive for a brighter future.
