leiria tuberculosis hiv these often fatal diseases are still widespread in africa. and now they've been joined by coded 19 the worst is yet to come on the continent that is home to 1300000000 people warns the world health organization. africa has the worst health care in the world with one doctor for 3300 people on average. by comparison o.e.c.d. countries have one doctor per 300 people. the coronavirus is exacerbating poverty and hunger even in countries like kenya long considered east africa's economic powerhouse more than 2 thirds of kenyans work in the informal sector as artisans vendors cleaners most of these jobs have been wiped out by the pandemic. now many

people can only afford one meal a day and residents of nairobi's biggest slum are desperately worried about their livelihoods and their children's future. it's a tense evening in nairobi's keep it a district and ambulance has brought a weak elderly man back to the village who are supposedly tested negative for the corona virus. but many here suspect that he still sick it's not entirely clear what his status is but people over worried enough to force the ambulance to take him back to the hospital. do you think this is a coronavirus dumping ground shout someone in the crowd. the next day 2 bystanders tell us it nearly erupted into violence. the problem with the club how can they bring out the she and the hero we did not. like handing because he was up over kids way because they think that is that way of transmitting to other people. not

because the driver and the police agreed with us that they'd take him back to the hospital. now you didn't because the crowd was shouting burn the fuel and set it on fire if you know me i'm human thank you i'm with you. officially there have been around $11000.00 cases in kenya so far which is relatively low but there is widespread fear of a major outbreak the country responded quickly with markdowns and compulsory masks but the economy is suffering greatly output is expected to fall by 4 percent this year. and the number of infections has been climbing faster recently in poorer quarters like keep it as well. this district of kenya's capital nairobi is suffering especially badly many here now depend on food donations one woman is close to tears she doesn't have a mask with her the volunteers simply give her a warning as they hand her the from the part. says. these are

typical scenes and in amongst it all the children schools have been closed because of the coronavirus a potentially devastating blow to the future of the younger generation here mothers like sophia she 12 can't homeschool their children the family has no laptop tablet or computer and the power is often out anyway. but i can't check their answers i didn't go to school so instead they go to the neighbors who do that for me. sophie is 14 year old daughter sheila gets up at 6 in the morning to do her homework. she waits eagerly for school lessons to begin on the screen at her neighbor's house. so i didn't say just news group. because. we don't have any teeth we.

don't have the. no one but his 3rd movement. i need. to learn but. there's still a. tentative really big i won't do when they grow up i want to move the boat. and she was frightened of missing too many lessons so she goes round to study at her neighbors whenever they're at home. since the beginning of the crisis the government has been working with the united nations children's fund unicef to expand remote learning school programs. it's an attempt to avert the worst says unicef jean and give you. even before probably demanding crisis to know it was very high.

children are not able to achieve the learning outcomes that they need to achieve at a particular age and you can imagine plastic corbet then this learning outcomes even becomes. their treatment of the same becomes a problem. if the power fails and the signal cuts out then she will simply has to miss out on the class which is frustrating but remote schooling at least offer some sense of stability during the crisis. preferably make it only 3 this is also the reason why sophia her son invites round as many as 10 kids a day to use her t.v. in the kibera district. she wants to protect them from another kind of threat during the crisis. it is important in that you know you're in so many cases and no mistake. so i'm trying my best to put together the they don't and.

there are many like sophia house on trying to help others they're the backbone of nairobi's keep it a quarter people who won't give up no matter how long the crisis lasts. 'd 'd brazil the coronavirus has been downplayed by the country's president year bull sinatra despite testing positive he has pressed local governments to end lockdown measures and social distancing the outbreak in brazil has claimed the 2nd highest number of deaths after the us yet many brazilians are returning to precursor on a virus activities many out of sheer necessity. it's a tough job working as a snack vendor own copacabana beach. and all of barrow one just up and down in the sweltering heat for our was he has no other choice.

selling on the beach is still bad. but i just had to work again. because the government doesn't provide enough support. pca he. could pick up on a beach is of course an icon of rio de janeiro. it's also a place where rich meets poor. son travels for 4 hours every day just to work if things go well he barely takes 100 euros home with him. believe me i know this disease is killing a lot of people but if we all stay at home we'll die anyway only without work and food and family with. strict social distancing measures all theoretically in place but the police have long given up trying to force them almost no one here follows the rules. it's an open goal for the virus as more and more people take ill and die and while the state is failing to control the situation pressure mounts to open

back up as if everything's returned to normal. that's plain to see as we leave the beach. the usual hustle and bustle of his return to the alleyways of the old city. almost half of brazilians work in the informal sector and live day to day so they have no choice but to be out. only a few shops were supposed to open off to quarantine but hardly anyone stuck to that . the rich will brazilians we don't give up we will battle and we muddle through clearly city security came around a couple of times and tried to stop us working again i just quickly tied everything inside and left the door half open up all. cattle and her family are also back in business selling food from the trunk of fact car. the lock down took a big financial toll on them. and you just say the book i think it being we're

taking the risk because we have to work if we could stay at home we would but we couldn't afford to anymore because they find they're not if they had to get nothing . after reaching into their own stocks for a while cairo's mother has gone back to cooking for other people. every night into the morning on the menu today is beef with rice and beans one potion costs a little over a 2 year as they used to sell 100 meals a day now it's about 30. at all had high hopes of president. and has promised economic boom but those hopes have been done by his humbling of the pandemic. they end up with i think mad at him he runs around without a mask he's careless. and he shakes people's hands he's no role model going to make women down but a lot of people follow his example they don't stick to the rules either because he's not a good role model may. be facing the death toll continues to rise unabated some

regions have even had to build musgrave's brazil isn't strong contention with the u.s. to become the world's worst affected country. the poorest are getting the worst of it we travel to the for one of the biggest and. people here seem to feel abandoned. a truck has just arrived with donations today it's been disinfectant volunteers from a citizens' initiative help unload the truck. and. we have to fend for ourselves that's the way it is in the 5. we're going to. the younger ones are doing most of the heavy lifting it's hope that they have a better chance of surviving a covert 19 infection. the 20 year old student is one of the organizers. to them which meant there are so many dead and so much sadness among family and friends. that's what motivates us. we've already lost

a member of the team to the kimono virus and my friend who's just been helping out is infected right now. that's likely to faint you know. it's especially dangerous to distribute goods in the back alleys of maher a well armed gangs rule the streets the volunteers to put it for us outsiders are not welcome at the moment the virus is spreading and the inhabitants have no real means of protection. it's not clear how many people embers those poor record has a falling victim to the virus because people who don't get tested don't turn up in the statistics that. certain is that the number of deaths has multiplied dramatically feels betrayed by her own government. but the government doesn't care about the favela who are really angry with the state. because it doesn't just neglect us it's also racist. we suffer at the hands of the police here in the for

the jazz again the 5 am and most of the young black people who are killed come from the favela. most of the black people who die of covert 19 come from the family and . right now we're at the epicenter of the coronavirus the core of you dish. and that the very people who are now packed on to buses and trains again. to go back to that job stirring things like cleaning high end shopping malls so that those who can afford it can safely consume. the phallus of the city's engine room cleaners laborous street silos it's also teaches nurses and bus drivers live here in these crowded settlements collectively indispensable but easily replaceable as individuals for decades this is the cynical equation that's cappers 0 running while keeping rich and poor wells apart. fake news and conspiracy theories like the notion that 5 g. radiation makes you sick have flourished on social media during the pandemic much

distant from ation has spread on facebook reminding many of the platforms role in the 2016 u.s. election campaign. back then with the help of data analysis from cambridge analytical wealthy right wingers and russian operatives targeted voters on facebook possibly influencing the outcome of the election. critics of social media say its potential for manipulation undermines democracy. the internet a seemingly invisible and intangible place but there are also invisible dangers lurking beneath the surface. for me it feels like boiling a frog you know very slow incremental changes and we end up as the fall from. britain's breck's it and the us selection of donald trump were among the 1st

political campaigns to use algorithms to target and manipulate who uses. such a new form of censorship a very very strange one. democracy is vulnerable now because we are vulnerable to manipulation but we don't even notice. we need someone in london who's played a part in that manipulation christopher wiley works for cambridge analytic the company behind the worst case of data abuse in facebook's history it was co-founded by former white house chief strategist steve bannon and ended up serving as a propaganda machine what he was analytic has showed is. how easy it is to infiltrate american political discourse and manipulating the harms that have come from that. to me is akin to you know our weapon of mass destruction destruction 6 years ago while he left cambridge analytical he became

a whistle blower and testified before the u.s. senate now he's written a new book a peek inside the engine room of mental manipulation. the purpose of. the algorithms. they came in general in a creative word to identify people who were more prone soon neurotic traits or conspiratorial ideation the company called hold of and analyzed the data of millions of facebook users to identify the individual fears together with psychologists cambridge analytical was then able to develop targeted political propaganda for different types of people that have the power to skew someone's viewpoint even if by just a few degrees rather than talk in public i can whisper into each and every single person here i remember. watching

a focus group where. african-american women would talk about how vulnerable they would feel going to their 2nd or 3rd job at night walking alone. in the middle of a city and that you know they needed a gun to protect themselves if you're a right wing campaigner you go ok so let's ignore all the race justice stuff let's ignore equality let's focus on the feeling of being a vulnerable black woman in the middle of the night. cambridge analytical no longer exists but the tools they developed still do journalist peter pomeranz earth researches propaganda at the london school of economics. in the west we did have a social contract for 60 years around certain types of discourse. that we'd learned from totally terrorism that we don't use but the internet just took it to a different place and suddenly all the stuff that was for boats and you know we do

not do demeaning the other in polite discourse you know we could hinted it the tabloids played with us you know they they kind of they were an echo of nazi or soviet propaganda but to just see not in stove it's propaganda all the time on the internet every day that's pretty pretty shocking one tactic used to destabilize democracies is to flood the internet with contradictory narratives this is freedom of speech but used in a way to camouflage the truth what they do is something that some people call censorship through noise they. flood the information space where so much this information information chaos and what steve baron calls flood the zone with. that people can't tell what's true or false and so this is censorship not through constricting but through opening up the gates of information. it's like a place has been created where freedom of speech starts to attack itself it's easy

to believe that politics will never catch up with the digital world but that may not be the case. imagine entering into a building. that was built by an architect they didn't have to follow any safety standards because we put certain terms and conditions at the front of the door and what we have in software engineering and data architecture is no rules we need to have a legislative framework for digital technology that recognizes that it is a product of engineering they're not services. no one from cambridge analytical suffered any consequences for their actions there are calls for a regulatory body to approve algorithms move fast and break things was once a facebook it's obviously worked. in.

series we focus on climate change projects that inspire and offer solutions this week we go to zimbabwe where. we meet people in the region. who are involved in rebuilding and environmental protection in the wake of the storm an. 18 year old. remains devastated she was here. through 29. several of her friends were killed in the disaster over 200 houses were destroyed even now talk with sue i can barely come to terms with the power of the storm. this place and i see. a wonderful place there were lots of things. but it's. in a moment everything was void. if i also caused

a series of landslides in the nearby to money money national park. to my money is home to 200 different species of bat. so there are a cypher chorale he has been working for nature conservation organization bird life zimbabwe here since 2013 now reconstruction is also on his list of tasks. restoration is something key now we have seen what is happening with deliberate set up which are mostly man in mali which is this is the ideal city area g. it's an area that also didn't resort officially as well and you saw that she. continued to be degraded. the environmentalist and his organization are active in 6 villages. in one of the tree nurseries villages

like john jangi have joined together with others to grow new trees we sit down there's a community to how bigoted our our area by. branding is. different in the species so we started by cruising. some. rather bored kids so that we nest them in while i miss that. sucker riaa is worried that invasive plants species might take root and spread in the areas destroyed by either by native plants would be of much more use to the environment and the people here they can grow in a changing climate. models an inch too in your species of trees was there used to already be local conditions served and also the rain before i mean that in the used to save the these trees have to be replanted to increase their winter breaks. twice

a month fuck araya gets together with representatives of the surrounding villages the environmental scientist gives advice on how to use the natural resources and he tries to instill an awareness of nature the animals and especially the birds in the area as they come from the different villages the knowledge of that we reported to this group for people and we are sure that it was a sprint to the other in the other 6 villages in chicago minute. john jangi has prepared life's advice into practice in his own garden. alongside his ministers and maize crops he now also keeps a fruit or change. the never every other day in my realize that an orchard is one of the many sources of income generation for me. before i started this i used to only grow maize and vegetables but it was that i

later grew to appreciate the orchard. different trees norrish the soil and i'm spoilt for choice. because a some fruit trees are growing others are already bearing fruit. but there somewhere that i got the. job he sells his friess in the neighboring villages and that ensures him an income even during the coronavirus crisis. so there are side soccer riot is happy with the orchards abandoned because it's also important for the whole area. there's a davis store burrs in the money many mountains and it is when they share the border we get national parks saw. that also visits that are live in these communities in the forests in also they also come into orchards where they can actually get some food since all feed on falls so. i have been there different

authors they also supply food to many organisms or just where it's safe. insect populations were also ravaged by side you die most of the 50 beehives here were destroyed. traditionally farm is here hollowed out tree trunks to service hinds. now bird life zimbabwe is helping them to make beehives out of timber wood as a way of protecting the remaining tree stocks. we have fruit trees in the village go in and spread the pollen and this is good for our harvests because eventually we'll have more fruit and when people realize that there are of bees. in this area they won't chop the trees down because that frightened of them so the bees also provide some form of security you think if you did you mean. $600.00 hives up

and the environmentalists believe that if people have a sufficient source of income they will be more likely to protect the environment. that's all from global 3000 this time do write in and then tell us what you thought of the show and look us up on facebook need a few women see you soon. in
