about a week now that it's been effect what is your reaction to it and how are people in sudan living under the conditions off it actually is to the race is not a new thing for saddam. knew the before the protests started. jim has a border state of emergency in then states it means that this is done after the protests started they extended the state of emergency for another three states they wanted to threaten the people there and they are going to use more extreme measures of violence against their peaceful demands for freedom of change so are you saying to us that the people are carrying on with the protests are those protests still ongoing in sudan as we speak. yeah actually after the coalition of the state of emergency hard on the coverdell witnessed the more large

wave of protests since the start of that evolution is with them all the you know localities off when our city yesterday. in a numbers that had not been with this before so. yesterday did you have been here you know way that they did in song during. a period of an evolution in sudan. we've seen omar al bashir get rid of governors in certain states and replace them with military offices what is your reading of that should he or she does that he. you know is trying to do two things first of all he tries trying to you know have a kind of confrontation between the army and the people because people. in that

they want me to be in the side of the people not the sorry of of the give and then second thing bashir try to sell a notion for the forces that he's going to cut the ties with that is just. to inboards a current of our military ruling in sudan that could be appealing for many countries in the region right now but they don't believe i need all my years say of secretary general of a sudanese congress party thank you. ok the call for action against climate change has a fresh face and that's it over there that is who she is gracious to in bed with the swedish teenager who has called out the world's leaders for inaction and her activism has caught on since august tens of thousands of peoples and cities across europe and as far as australia and even in uganda have walked out of their friday

crosses to push for more ambitious carbon targets young people in nigeria have also been taking action to secure the future of their environment here's a report now from a correspondent on the fish are they call themselves the climate warriors of lagos arm vith gloves and bats they are determined to take back the beach and turn it into what it once was the place for sea shells. here at this beach in lagos you can find pretty much everything you can imagine like probably the flip flop or just before i found a tooth brush and of course volume of plastic not all of this of course belongs to us humans but it's them curator and teenagers young students who are on a mission to protect the beach generation for their future. every week they collect about fifty bags of trash and the more they clean the beach the more changes that.

a change in my life span out for instance i don't you think you use plastic in my have my words are both true that you don't take to work and then buy you recycle a blue. bag to market plastic waste is one of the biggest problems worldwide especially in places like lagos where single use plastic for example plastic bags is not prohibited on like in rwanda or in kenya. the thirty year old activist has been busy battling pollution since she was a student an overwhelming task she quit her job as a lawyer it takes everything from you physically mentally you know you have to be one hundred percent in this if not you just where unfortunately children are the ones that are most affected it's really bad that we have so many plastics that come from the ocean to the shows to i come here musette. drink when you're trying to

mess cleaning up the beach is just one of today's stats planting palm trees is a way to finish the latest state has a population of more than twenty million people it generates about forty metric tons of waste every day of work seems and less but for them not hopeless. ok from the beach to the cinema and to another young person we can all draw inspiration from the boy who harnessed the wind is a film about an innovator from william. that just launched on netflix is small on the feature film directed by oscar winning she fell for the rain came late this year and now. he's actually. supposed. to do.

that's what i am i the boy who harnessed the wind is the true story of young williams and you won't sit idly by and watch his village start is defeated with an inventive mind and a thirst for knowledge william takes his family's fate into his own hands it's like it's continuing. to eat. she will tell edgier forced directorial debut is based on a bestselling memoir of the same title it's the true story of william cum pundit who at age thirteen when has to irrigate fields and save his village from famine. i was well you must parents hope that sending their son to school will provide him a better future but natural disasters crop failure hunger and scarce funds make that dream impossible to some it seems and. even the

masses it's hard for the real william to look back on that time i have like mixed feelings the only reason why i have mixed feelings because it's likely in some parts to leave the past that was a very like difficult a very challenging shot entirely in malawi the boy who harnessed the wind is a positive story out of africa that doesn't ignore challenges but tackle something head on. to we die. as an actress from african descent i can see how absent. the african stories are in western countries do not think that. this type of positive stories can make a change in terms of the of the perception we have of other people especially from africa forty. three. k.
