and volunteer efforts lead to reserves, and next on d, w 2 could ever know for sure that of us are out in support of what's down there over to the river. welcome to global 3000, full speed ahead. a huge rail project has people in mexico's yucatan peninsula, worried fresh eggs online. how china's farmers are going digital to survive. the

coronavirus pandemic. but 1st helping those who need it. most volunteers are helping albanian women to escape poverty. worldwide women are more affected by poverty than men. they're generally expected to look after the family. when they can work, they earn far less, can save less and their jobs are more insecure. in times of crisis, women are generally hardest hit. the united nations says that more than 70 percent of domestic workers lost their jobs in the 1st few months of the pen demick. the vast majority women. according to a u.n. study, by 2021 around 435000000, women and girls will be living in extreme poverty. 47000000 more than today and the situation isn't likely to improve by 2030.

these n.g.o.s workers are on their way to a woman who lives in rural albania, with her children in fear of their lives. a group of 7 volunteers has been sent here by a foundation called a different weekend. the organization has 12000 volunteers in all the woman calls herself scored. she doesn't want us to use her real name. she and her children were repeatedly beaten by her husband, and he was eventually sentenced to 18 months in prison, but is being released in a few days. oh, do the value always threaten me? saying that when he got out, he'd find me wherever i was and kill me. me and the children i said kill me, but i beg you to spare the children. i have to protect them. they good kids, they deserve a better life. isn't

used to people listening to her. she talks for hours telling the young volunteers about her life, the poverty and hardship she endures. the n.g.o.s currently setting up the 1st women's shelter in albania. it's still under construction. but her and her children are going to be brought to safety into rana, the capital of albania, 26 year old lawyer, r. bar high degree is on his way to the foundation's main offices. he's used to explaining the project unusual name, a different, developed very organically when i was still a student, i wanted to help poor people. during a vacation, i spent a weekend volunteer in with it was a public holiday, and everyone was celebrating except the poor. so i packed a few with food and toys and went to the poorest parts of tehran. for the weekend,

i spent, there was different he holds a meeting with a different weekend volunteers every morning. the team discusses the day's tasks. it's a highly efficient operation. next door move the interior fielding phone calls. a call is just coming from a widow called it vanna, the family of her late husband, have thrown her and her 3 daughters out. and now they're living in a cow shed. with no heating, no fridge, and nothing to eat, their case is given top priority. 2 hours later, the volunteers visit it, van are bringing clothes, food, and also hope. her husband died of epilepsy in march. her in-laws wasted no time throwing her and the children out of the house. and they're now living here trying to get by on the equivalent of about 20 euros

a month in welfare benefits. these photographs are all she has to remind her of her husband and son was happier times, although the family was always bitterly poor. so i never had a birthday party like other kids. i'm turning 14 soon, but we won't celebrate this time either. our mother has no money so much. i've never blown out candles on a birthday cake. both in the couch. it is barely habitable. at night rats and snakes crawl through the holes in the walls. emily is so scared she can't sleep. there's no electricity and no fridge . so the little food they have spoils quickly. just in this area here. of course, you know,

we have done 35 houses till now. and i really hope the next house before this family, very soon, when i say so, and i mean 20 tens of thousands of donations from all over the world have allowed the foundation to help some 50000 families in albania. sometimes their circumstances have been improved only temporarily, but some of them have been able to escape poverty for good. and that the happiest, hopefully it vanna's luck has now changed. thanks to donations, the foundation has found a new home for her and her daughters. they've also found it vanna, a job, a school around the corner, full fiorello and swayer, and their little sister emily will go back to daycare and be able to sleep at night again. by the way, they are not escaping poverty and leaving a self-determined life. something that should be accessible to women around the

world. on our facebook channel, d.w. women, you'll find stories about women tackling problems and taking a stand. d.w. women gives a voice to the women of our world. venice is normally swamped by tourists, some $30000000.00 of them every year in a city with just 50000 residents is a money spinner, but in many places it has become a curse. back in 1950 there were just 25000000 international tourists compared to 1460000000 in 2019. yet around the world, there are more grand projects in the making designed to poland. ever more tourists . not always to the delight of local people. the jungle means everything to cloudy or lopez. it's the only place he feels truly happy. we met the tour guide,

an animal welfare activist in his element, one of the most species rich rain, forests on earth. the mother nature always has wonderful surprises in store for us . right now i'm waiting for the bats to come out. it's the daily dance of the vampires millions of bats leave their underground caves here every night. this remarkable place is known as the back volcano. and claudio lopez is always thrilled to watch. but these days, he's also worried that the new train route will pass very close to these caves, and the resulting vibrations could cause them to collapse. that could happen when the train passes through here. the new railway is called train maya, it's one of the largest infrastructure projects in modern mexican history work has

barely begun, but promotional films produced by the government are already showing would lies ahead. 1500 kilometers of tracks will crisscross the yucatan peninsula. the project will cost billions and will be partly financed by pride. it investors there will be new settlements next to engine mayan cities and a rail connection for nearly $3000000.00 tourists a year. the goal is to support a region that has been forgotten for the last 5 decades. at the same time, it's a region with resources that can benefit the rest of the country. profits for some but anger for others. like guadalupe concept is who lives in company. a town located along the old train tracks which are to be extended for the train. my house is set to be demolished significantly. just my home means

a lot to me. my life, my history. this is where i lived with my parents. this is where i raised my children. in this area alone, there are hundreds of families who will be forced to resettle in early june, mexico's president on race. manuel lopez obrador, traveled to the region to announce the official start of the tracks construction. critics say took advantage of the coronavirus crisis to push through processes in the controversial train project. and yet, there are also many people along the train, my a route who support the project. the train line could set a lot in motion, especially after the pandemic. putting on a real connection like this would have great economic advantages. there would be more visitors and therefore more jobs. it would make it easier for people to get here by train from cannes koon and other tourist centers that are now. travelers to the yucatan region have to rely on cars. the further you travel in lived and away

from the coast, the more isolated and green it gets. here there are eagles, spider monkeys, jaguars, and other endangered species. the new railway line also threatens their habitat in the jungle town of chio. we met up with cloudy old lopez. again. the government's infrastructure plans are a big issue in the village. soon the population will increase 10 fold from what it is now. the problem is that everything will grow without control. prices will rise, and as in other parts of mexico, organized crime will take over me. so who benefits from the development and suppose that progress? in the land of the maya, the legacy of history is omnipresent. cloudier, lopez takes us to meet an important representative of the indigenous population. but in the name trend, maya is a disgrace. we the maya, people are the ones who bear this proud name,

but nobody has spoken to us. this is not true. we are in contact with all groups, and there will be further consultations because of the pandemic contact might have been reduced a little. but again, if anyone benefits from the train, it's the indigenous people. but once again, many indigenous people feel their concerns have not been taken into account. the last stop on our journey is the back of the group or turquoise paradise, which is also under threat. biologist, melina regularly takes water samples here with alarming results back, and that has such vivid colors. but if the pollution continues like this, this could get dangerous and very quickly for a long time. this place was an insider's tip, but now the visitors have arrived. and with them the hotel's garbage and sewage,

the lack of sewage treatment plants, and the shortage of water have become a huge problem. and as of 2023, the train maya is expected to bring thousands more tourists every day. who can't afford mass tourism even now we can hardly protect our ecosystems unit, but the hit our nickel system. the railway is coming to yucatan. that much is clear, but there's still time to check this knows and changes course shattered shops and food markets overnight. teen is a huge headache for retailers and farmers. e-commerce is stepping into the breach. industry turnover is due to grow by over 25 percent this year to more than 2 trillion euros in 2023 point 5000000000, people are expected to shop online. almost half the world's population. the biggest

market is china. these days of poverty are over. shane was able to pay for a brand new tesla with the money he made in just 2 months. the farmer's son sells docking. one factor contributing to his success is that he is in constant communication with his customers lined streaming via the video sharing app, tick-tock, or dahlia. as it's known in china. this is a very good sales platform. it's much better than the traditional routes with agents and middlemen who all want to cut so you're going to get cured and salt and steamed. are a chinese specialty. they're a much loved snack for business is booming. output has quadrupled

and now processed 200000 eggs a day. and that's the number we're able to show each day. oh, yes, he was over here with a family who lives in the far south of china in a small fishing village where everyone knows everyone else. for generations now, the young have earned their living by fishing before switching to breeding ducks. and later in life streaming idea didn't go down. well at 1st one told me and the people here find live streaming shameless. they don't understand what you're doing when you run around talking into a cell phone all day. they look down on me because they didn't understand what i was doing. a couple but his idea has paid off is entertaining and he knows how to build trust. last

month, the village cooperative made as much profit as they used to in 6 months, 250 kilometers away line streaming courses this specially for farmers, along with del yen and j.d. dot com. the chinese equivalent of amazon are involved in the project. young up and coming farmers are getting lessons in direct marketing. there are special studios where they can practice. mr. song as sweet potatoes to sell, trained lime streamers are helping him. talking into a camera for hours on end, doesn't come naturally to him. he goes along, the influencers helped me to create the right mood for him. at the beginning, i was really nervous, but gradually things got easier. i think it's easy. as a mom and a home, the farmer now sells more than half his produce on line. j.b. takes a commission of one percent of turnover,

but the platform also organizes the transport a little bit. you geez, logistics infrastructure works for us. if someone orders online, j.d. organizes everything that saves us a lot of work. and there's the old in one tool. during the coronavirus, pandemic organizing transportation became a problem. one that couldn't be resolved by individual farmers. tons of produce was left stranded across the country. for mr. song and his cooperative, the streaming project came at just the right time. the rather retiring farmer has now got used to being accompanied by a smartphone camera when he's in the greenhouse we'll deal with all of the using during the coronavirus crisis in february and march. people weren't allowed to go to the market or to stores. so they looked around online and discovered they could get fruit and vegetables delivered to their homes

even fresher than in the supermarket. usual bittorrent. since the start of the pandemic, online sales linked to live streaming have skyrocketed. this farmers' co-operative used to employ 70 people. now it's almost $300.00 they would earn less in the city than they do here. and it's practical. it's close to home. people can look after their grandparents and their children. they no longer have to go to the city to work without a little back at washing shins. ducking factory. this feeling confident about his future before he discovered lyme straining, he had always thought he would have to leave his village to find work in a big city. we could communicate with the world over this platform. yes, we can share our cuisine and our culture and history with the world that's very exciting

for us without you don't know who would have thought that line streaming duck eggs could attract so many followers and bring so much business success. in this week's global ideas, we'll take a look at a particularly successful conservation project. africa's majestic wildlife is often the target of poachers. making the work of wildlife preserves especially important . our reporter went to kenya, where he met some of the people whose project has made it onto the international union for conservation of nature's green list. the wildlife conservancy in central kenya is a paradise for animals and animal lovers. the 250 square kilometers are home to thousands of giraffes, elephants lions, rhinos,

and many other species used to be part of a cattle ranch owned by, a british farmer. in the 1980 s., when poaching was decimating the black rhino population, the family turned the land into a sanctuary. today around 170 black rhino live in the conservancy. they're protected by 123 rangers, a pack of specially trained dogs and a high tech surveillance system. most of the rangers are locals, 98 percent of just walk, you know, from the neighboring community. and out is very, very important because, you know, thing also is to send a message to a community that they have their own issues. because you know, people in the community see it. so it's very important to work with people of the law cause the people who are on a bus. but they were conservancy says that working closely with local communities

is an effective strategy in the fight against poachers. community is playing a critical role in terms of conservation with don't look putting them in board. you're not tweeting in terms of cost of vision or pushing. it's been assisted by the communities and it's been assisted even by a dentist. that is what you have seen before. and it's just because of their money, and that's why now we're focusing in terms of putting a lot of programs outside the community. so we can really win the community to get a lot of information and police. they can be, i thought and yes of us. if the local people notice anything suspicious, they reported to the ranger purity. one more you. she grew up here and knows almost everybody in the area, but i just know we are 5 children just at the moment. i was the last to be impolite . was employed in 20, tells this conservancy means everything to me because my mom we have a microcredit finance the you know,

so my mom is not is one of the benefit of that micro-credit right now. i have that son who is in from 2 plates now. he's getting funds from education best selling the little wildlife conservancy invests about 7 percent of its earnings in programs benefiting local communities such as person raise for 450 school growers and irrigation schemes for a local farms. one of lay was top priorities is empowering women. pauline karumba, who owns a small farm, but for many years lacked financial resources. but in 2017 conservancy program helped her secure a microcredit humans and yes, a good lay. one has really helped me because it gave me a loan. it was $10000.00 shillings about $100.00, then you go on, i'm making it. and when i did a lot with the money dog, do i ponce as to plant on hands?

i also bought 2 pigs. so there's been lots of progress that i am moving forward. i have gained so much. there are many benefits. for example, they bring in trainers who teach us about many issues that have to do with health and how we can help ourselves as women 1800 women have so far received microcredit. there are also classes on business, the environment, and practical skills. purity and lawrence will work for the conservancy as women's empowerment program. previously, women have been so bad that they have become to meet they do trainings we think up with maybe specially is taken across expect to be less so,

but is from us going to benefit the best in the later taken and producing for the programs have helped improve the standard of living in neighboring communities . working closely with the local government conservancy supports for clinics and runs one of its own local people, receive free medical care, including medicine and vaccines and medical services for pregnant women and new mothers. setting up these clinics to provide much needed primary have says 2 communities that leave the consequence. each month 800 people there's a dire shortage of medical care in kenya's rural areas. so locals, welcome the clinics. it would be

a big problem at this clinic didn't exist. many people would have died. the nearest hospital is in the next town, which is quite far. it's good that there is a clinic here. the efforts made by the labor wildlife conservancy not only to protect wild animals but also to support local communities have found international recognition since 2014 it's been included in the prestigious i.u.c.n. green list of protected areas. the seal of approval is a huge boost to the project. it helps us in terms of marketing strategies. it helps put, helps us in terms of fundraising. i would to help helps us so that there can be a model for us to emulate for others to come on line from us. what we have been. yeah. it's not for low. it's for the kids and heavy stage. it's for the global head

. it is for the community hit it to the label, wildlife conservancy shows that protecting wildlife is compatible with the needs of local communities. with the right strategies, both can flourish side by side. that's all from us, the global 3000 this week. we hope you enjoyed the program, drop us a line to global 3000 at d, w dot com. check out our facebook pages, d,, w global i.d.s., and d w. women. by for now please, please. the
