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“.

NerdOut - Hunger (Galactus)

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.

Every day, Peter Hawkins wakes up filled with determination to make a difference. As the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) Representative in Yemen, he puts that boundless energy into helping young people survive one of the world’s most intractable humanitarian crises.
 
“Despite serving in some of the most challenging and difficult places, I've been lucky,” he says. “I've loved my life. I have no regrets. Every day I wake up, I feel there's something I can do. There's things I enjoy. So nothing keeps me awake, everything keeps me going during the day.”

After a decade of conflict and collapse, a new generation of Yemenis are yearning for a better tomorrow: “So the children sit there in these classrooms with no walls, no floors, no desks, and learn, and they're proud about what they learn. And they come to me and say, ‘Look, don't worry, we will continue to learn. But if you can give us desks, if you can fill up the walls and you can give us a floor and a blackboard, it will be even better.’”

In this episode, Peter Hawkins reflects on the striking resilience of the people he serves, and shares how his upbringing in Ethiopia and service in Iraq taught him to never give up working for change. For him, the biggest challenge today is not so much about raising awareness, but about action. “It is so important to understand how one side of the world is so lucky and the other side of the world is still desperately poor, and how we bring those two together.”
