I'm not going to stop screaming about this as long as there is oxygen in my lungs.

Gaza is experiencing an attempt at genocide and the Western world, led by the US and its trusty lapdog Germany, is facilitating it.

24 October is United Nations Day.  To recognize this day, we are sharing an episode The Oxford Comment podcast where we were lucky to feature members of the communications’ team at @united-nations on World Humanitarian Day. 

World Humanitarian Day is held every year on 19 August to pay tribute to aid workers who risk their lives in humanitarian service, and to rally support for people affected by crises around the world. In 2018, the United Nations centered their campaign around civilians in war zones using #NotATarget. 

Podcast Produced by Nicole Piendel for Oxford University Press

Short distance, long way: Eastern Equatorians hesitate to return from Ugandan camps

Abandoned shops line the streets of once bustling towns across Ayaci and Magwi County near Torit in the eastern part of South Sudan. Places like Obbo, Pajok, and Pugee appear deserted, save a few women trading what little crops they have cultivated, or small groups of elderly men taking their tea. “The situation we are having here is because of hunger. People have run away to the [refugee] camps [in Uganda]. Few have come back, so we are facing difficulties for food and crops to be planted,” explains David Omwony, a citizen of Obbo Payam.

World Humanitarian Day is only 10 days away and YOU can be part of it!

Here’s what’s happening: Around the world, millions of people are suffering in wars & conflicts:

Children are recruited to fight instead of learning in school. 

Families are forced to flee their homes, struggling every single day to find food, water and safe shelter. 

Aid workers and health workers are attacked, their supplies looted and ambulances bombed. 

But the world isn’t doing enough to stop their suffering.
