Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayotupeleka nchini Kenya ambako Umoja wa mataifa uko mstari wa mbele kuwapa msaada wakenya wanaotatizika kutokana na mafuriko. Pia tunakuletea muhtasari wa habari kuhusu Gaza, Uhamiaji na misitu. Mashinani inatupeleka nchi Haiti, kulikoni?

Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa IOM Amy Pope amezindua rasmi ripoti hiyo nchini Bangladesh, nchi ambayo iko mstari wa mbele katika changamoto za uhamiaji na kusema "Ripoti ya Uhamiaji Duniani ya 2024 inasaidia kuondoa utata wa uhamaji wa binadamu kupitia takwimu na uchambuzi unaozingatia ushahidi." Kati ya mwaka 2,000 na 2022 ongezeko la utumaji fedha nyumbani kimataifa kwa mujibu wa Ripoti lilikuwa ni zaidi ya asilimia  650 na kufikia dola bilioni 831 bilioni.

Today we go to the state of Alaska which is home to 229 federally recognized Native American nations. Our guest joins us for the hour to share her experiences at the United Nations Environmental Programme 4th Session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (April 23rd-29th, 2024), including the United States violations of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, U.S. militarism, plastic colonization from the violent legacy of the American petroleum and chemical companies maiming, MMIWG2+, and the wounding and killing life throughout the Arctic region combined forms are intensifying the process of genocide and are placing Indigenous peoples throughout the Arctic Circumpolar Region futures at risk.

There are more than 13 million people from more than 40 ethnic groups and Indigenous nations inhabiting the Arctic Circumpolar North region and all face real and formidable risks and threats from the climate crises, state-corporate violence, other compounded forms of settler colonial violence, including the intergenerational harms caused from plastic colonization. 
With the annual plastic production doubling in 20 years to 460 million tons, plastic contributions to global warming could more than double by 2060 if current rates remain unchanged. Plastic colonization severely impacts the Arctic region and it is, in fact, a “hemispheric sink” where plastics and petrochemicals from the South (of the Arctic region) accumulate, leaving Indigenous communities and nations to bear the brunt of pollution that did not come from their traditional lands.

The United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP), the fourth session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee 4th Session was held from April 23rd to April 29th, 2024 in Ottawa, Cananda. The meeting, nonetheless, was attended by 480 observer organizations, including environmental NGOs and 196 fossil fuel and chemical industry lobbyists and its purposes was for all parties to develop a legally binding instrument that ultimately would eliminate toxic plastic productions as one way to stop plastic colonialism, the killing life on the Mother Earth, and help reduce the impacts of the climate crises. Listen to hear what happened and how Indigenous peoples and nations were treated. 
 
Guest:
Vi Waghiyi, Sivuqaq Yupik, Native Village of Savoonga Tribal Citizen, grandmother, mother, activist, and she is the Environmental Health and Justice Director with the Alaska Community Action on Toxics (https://www.akaction.org).

Plastic Colonization: Indigenous Nations Survivance in the Arctic Circumpolar Region

Big or small, Joyce Msuya has always found ways to give back. Now Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator in the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, she oversees the global response to the world’s worst crises. 

“For me, personally, it's a privilege to serve humanity. I wake up every morning and think about how I can shift the needle in someone's life.” 

From Gaza to Ukraine, Haiti to Sudan, the UN estimates 300 million people around the world are in need of life-saving assistance and protection. In this episode, Joyce Msuya reflects on keeping hope alive despite waking to fresh crises every day, on the shocking impacts of climate-related extreme weather, and on the long-term benefits of a strict boarding school. 

“A peaceful world would be a gift for all humanity. There's just too much suffering everywhere. If we can live a better and more peaceful world for our children than what we are currently living with, then humanity will be well served.”

Together we could ... and we should!

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
We're all made of energy, from the stars down to the stones,  
In the dance of life, we're not alone.  
Every leaf and every breeze, every creature, every tree,  
We share the same right to simply be.

[Pre-Chorus]
Open your eyes, open your heart,  
Feel the connection, we're never apart.  
In the whisper of the wind, in the silence of the night,  
We find our truth, we find the light.

[Chorus]
We are part of everything, not above but side by side,  
In this web of life, where love and peace reside.  
Together we can turn the tide, away from hate and strife,  
Harmony in nature, in the simplest form of life.

[Verse 2]
A tree is not just timber, it’s a messenger of the earth,  
Sending signals through the roots, it's proof of its worth.  
Animals communicate in ways we don't yet see,  
Each one a vital thread in life's vast tapestry.

[Pre-Chorus]
Open your mind, open your soul,  
Feel the connection, let the unity unfold.  
In the call of the wild, in the hum of the bees,  
We find our place, we find our peace.

[Chorus]
We are part of everything, not above but side by side,  
In this web of life, where love and peace reside.  
Together we can turn the tide, away from hate and strife,  
Harmony in nature, in the simplest form of life.

[Bridge]
Imagine a world where love leads the way,  
Where jealousy and hate have no place to stay.  
Embrace the unity, feel the energy flow,  
In the heart of nature, our true selves we'll know.

[Chorus]
We are part of everything, not above but side by side,  
In this web of life, where love and peace reside.  
Together we can turn the tide, away from hate and strife,  
Harmony in nature, in the simplest form of life.

[Outro]
We are energy, we are one,  
Underneath the same bright sun.  
In peace and harmony, we'll find our way,  
In the dance of life, we'll always stay.

Hi there,

Great that you came across my music on SoundCloud - thank you for your visit - I hope you will enjoy the ride!

Interested in working together, like to use my music for your project, or want to book me as artist / DJ? Please feel free to contact me.

About me:

AI M APED !
(ai music artist producer entertainer dj)

I was born and raised in a small village and made my own music since being able to make any kind of sound :)

I actively played the piano from 6 to 16 years of age.
Did set up my own Highschool grunge band in between (singer and bass), which ended quite literally during the last days of school :p

Bought myself a Yamaha DJX synth and made some electronic music.
Took a 'let's go work' break and went back to the synth around 2010 (scroll down in my tracks to the very bottom, to get a taste of me actual playing keys and arranging real played electronic music).

... and now - going with the time, while calling myself a pioneer in enjoyable, professional produced AI music. 
Most lyrics are my own and also the music isn't just a click (takes about 20-30 songs (often even more), before being able to start work on one final piece of music with editing and mastering).

Last but not least: 
Enjoy my music, like what you like and please subscribe to my channel for more love in this place.

Peace, yours
