and. made in germany. d w. people have to say here's to us. trying to listen to their stories reporter every weekend on t.w. . gone in one fell swoop all that work against poverty inequality and discrimination down the drain the pandemic has put us back to kate's it's exacerbated social divisions and it's highlighted more than ever just how unfair economies can be

welcome we do about it let's take a look the entire populations of rich industrialized countries could be fascinated by the end of the year in a marriage of nations that may not happen until next year is that fair. well you've just got to follow the money to find a vaccine we compare the challenges facing europe's economic engine germany africa's largest economy nigeria and the world's biggest democracy india. developing manufacturing and distributing vaccines against the coronavirus is a huge challenge will only rich countries get the supplies they need what about low and middle income countries. what's the situation like in india. i'm in mumbai and my aim is to find the answer to that question. over the span of about

a month around $8000000.00 people in india have received their 1st vaccine. the government aims to vaccinate 300000000 people by july. health care and other front line workers are 1st in line. among them gaeta raj who's been a nurse for 20 years. she's very relieved to be protected she was worried she might become infected and then pass the virus on to her family. but maybe abbott never had to be extremely careful at home i was worried about our children and their health i slept in a separate room kept my clothing and shoes separate maintain proper hygiene and constantly used sanitizes i try to take care of every little thing and i don't know . time is of the essence infection rates a stable right now and india hopes to vaccinate more than 60 percent of its

population by the end of the year. but in that time frame where the numbers are going down so we'd be very imperative that if we can vaccinate as many people as possible it would be able to avoid be po'd be if the oxford astra zeneca vaccine is produced under license in india by the serum institute of india a company owned by one of india's wealthiest families that's one of the world's biggest pharmaceuticals manufacturers. the government has pledged to provide the vaccine at low cost like now free of charge we're going to be probably the lowest priced call the $19.00. maxine manufacturer in the world like we offer all our vaccines it's going to be priced in a few 100 rupees initially that won't cover the cost but we're talking to the government to see how we can manage that with high volumes to see that you know we

don't go into a dog lost or whatever came in december india became the world's largest buyer of covert 1000 vaccines ordering 1600000000 doses in effect 800000000 people all 60 percent of the population india is fortunate in that it can manufacture a european vaccine and indian vaccine is due to follow and they'll be imported ones how is the manufacture of vaccines proceeding in industrialized countries and what's the situation in africa the continent relies on imports and they're being coordinated by kovacs a global initiative a minute to ensure equitable access reporters samson adelaide is in the nigerian capital abuja. we all have to wear masks on the streets about. vaccinations have not yet begun here in nigeria. the only country on the african continent to have started is south africa a number of others are planning to start soon. are you dearly

is medical director of the private connect a cost but all he has received many covert related deaths for the government the task is so important that only public vaccination centers will deliver the jab it doesn't for anyone is going to take the complex sentences out the population i don't care what happened in this you're not a part of the world so. this and then it is just telling us all to do walt is one big global village nigeria has a population of more than 200000000 doctor i routinely tells me that to attain herd immunity via vaccination more than 100000000 would need to be inoculated the national health care development agency isn't working on a vaccine of its own its director pfizer says it will be getting the one manufactured by the serum institute of india with the support of the world health

organization we get to around $60000000.00 doses of the. type. in the month of february and that. these will likely call in batches. he says less than 2000 people have died of covert 19 in nigeria the mortality rate in south africa for example is much higher the number of doses being provided by the w.h.o. and the gates foundation amounts to less than 20 percent of the total needed so what's the situation like in germany let's find out from our colleague in berlin. vaccines are to be produced in a number of facilities in germany some are still being built. and countries around the world are competing to acquire the available vaccines. on february 1st chancellor merkel confirmed the government's commitment. does to us everybody

effects the nation by the end of the 3rd quarter that is the end of the summer. germany is among the slowest rich countries when it comes to vaccinating its population orders for vaccines were placed too late senior citizens and health care workers topped the priority list around 3000000 doses have been used so far. germany is one of the world's richest countries it might will succeed in completing its vaccination campaign by the end of the year. but vaccinating lower income countries especially in africa will depend on assistance from the international community. but this isn't just about money it's about governments organizational skills at getting the public on board israel is well on its way to becoming the 1st country in the world to a vaccinated its population anyone who's already had covert and survived or has

both jabs or get a green possible allowing them to move more freely the thing is this isn't just a race against the coronavirus anymore it's about beating the diseases ability to mutate a reporter spoke to an official at gov a the alliance that's working to help lower income countries get their fair share of the vaccine. the vaccine alliance god is involved in campaigns around the world to vaccinate against infectious diseases such as ebola and polio. and set up preferred trace and facilities in africa to ensure an uninterrupted cold chain for rick seems. i'm going to talk to god he's director of countries are part. of about the global coronavirus mixing nation program. partners and to act quickly it's absolutely critical because.

the quicker that we can. contain the virus the faster we can prevent it from for example mutating countries in the north and hemisphere and south america as well as australia will likely have flexi made by the end of next year. but it's feared that the vaccination timeline from many countries in africa and asia will extend to 2023. it's a true that rich countries currently at the populations at the risk countries get vaccine earlier than the populations of the a much in contrast we're changing. our intent is to make sure that low income countries can access it seemed that scene's at the same time as high income countries are much money do you have. if you collect all right so far we've

mobilized $6000000000.00. and we are still seeking an additional $2000000000.00. for it to take us through the end of the year and into 20 twentieth's. many countries have contributed funds to govern with the aim of ensuring an equitable distribution of koran of our respect seems the ones in a grey. are not donors low and middle income countries marked and poor people are to be provided with $8000000000.00 euros to buy a vaccine you're up to mr maher asked that they need it 60 to 70 percent of the goal of vaccination after all population robey are achievable within this year i wouldn't say that no i think. that would probably be a goal that would be achieved in 2022 i think you know globally. but. certainly from our perspective reaching those 1st 20 percent that are the most for

all the while it's cheap and we're on track to do. a pandemic aside what about how often fishel intelligence is changing our lives it's doing some great stuff but it's also creating an even unfair a world the systems are mostly made by a bunch of white guys so the decisions made by the bots or algorithms a based on biased information if you're not a white guy the social impacts can be extremely far reaching on health education and economic status for example in some cases it can be a matter of whether you live today or not. a drone attack artificial intelligence decides on the target the size of a life and death. increasingly it also selects who is going to be invited to job interviews or not. and who is put behind bars and who gets out on probation.

it's 5 o'clock in the morning. in the dark outside time to work and to talk with a leading expert in a ethics. in australia. kate crawford studies this social impact of artificial intelligence which is becoming more and more important to our everyday lives. ringback wise in just as the produce. developers have the power to minimize it in many ways we are training the technical systems of the future on the historical data on the past and along with that comes all of the biases and structural inequalities of those periods so this is the fundamental problem that we see in terms of the when an artificial intelligence works and for example studies that i have done the possible king of things like predictive policing software which in many cases is

trained on police data that contains many forms of you know racial inequities so if you are black person being judged by some type of eye or you know profiling software operated policing software the likelihood that you are receiving fair treatment actually goes down. so what is this solution we think of these problems as engineering problems as though when we see these forms of inequality the enhanced by high that what we can do is come up with the technical fixed to try and simply modify a system to address it but in actual fact this is again part of this core myth of artificial intelligence are somehow removed from society is pure math the opposite is true these are systems that are in themselves you know profoundly imbedded in all of their systems of labor data and of the environment so if we didn't address the profound issues inequality we need to see them as social rather than as

engineering problems in the future ai systems could become ever more closely intermeshed so for example my bank might make assumptions about my health on the basis of information about what i tend to eat making it potentially difficult to go . the long term loan where do we have to draw the line what do you think from your point of view. i think the lines a very different depending on what spaces we're talking in many cases i look to the existing regulator restructures that we have and something like the health care demand do we need to come up with a totally new different set of rules and i or can we simply adapt the sort of set to specific regulations that we already have and my sense certainly moment is that really just growing from a sector specific laws and regulations we already have is the way to go i doesn't respect national borders yet there are no shared international rules about its use in the e.u. data protection laws are written to fleece drenge of compared to the united states

and in china there are hardly any curbs on the use of ai. at the moment we don't really have a body that's doing that is a very new one called the global partnership and i am but again it's very early days it's less than a year old and the sort of work that it's doing is entirely voluntary people can choose just to follow those norms as they wish the e.u. wants international guidelines on ai weapons some other countries dolt the bottom line those who stand to benefit from want to keep that. as a transfer of power to the already powerful we're seeing as an increase in his power his image towards already powerful institutions and corporations so these are the ways in which i see artificial intelligence as intensifying already existing dynamics of power inequality in society. racism is bad for business 2 thirds of people will buy from will boycott

a company based on its social or political position according to a survey by marketing consultancy firm edelman the killing of a black man george floyd by a police officer in minnesota led to a global discussion on racism and the role of businesses in social justice just what can companies do to fight for racism within and beyond the workplace we asked kara hudson banks a professor of psychology at st louis university who helps enterprises learn how to become anti-racist and anti-racist organization and one that acknowledges not only how racism is showing up in their organization but is committed to taking action against it consistently over time. so organizations want to know how to build and anti-racist commitment they need to one identify the harm you can't assume that everything's been ok until now

listen to the voices of folks who are most impacted and do it without being defensive i think too often individuals within organizations feel uncomfortable asking well where are we where are we done wrong because they feel personally complicit and it might be that they are part of the problem but we have to understand that racism is not just individual action racism is a system. it's about the patterns that we've created in our organization and so if we're willing to think about what are the patterns that we have in the bill landscape in the bill and vironment of our organization we can spend less time getting caught in our feelings of defensiveness and move to solving the problem. to get specific so once you have a i

d of what the harm has been so then you've got to not just say oh we see that we have some patterns you have to get specific about how you're going to rectify those and equitable patterns maybe you say internally we're going to commit to more professional development specifically for our employees of color but to make sure that everyone has access and opportunity to the professional development they need the mentoring me need and the networking they ne. 3 deal with discomfort coming to see how your company or organization has been complicit and perpetuated dynamics of racism requires that you're honest about how you maybe made a misstep don't get caught up in perceptor rating or dwelling are wallowing it is what it is you maybe didn't fully understand the depths now you do you can feel all those feelings and put in the work to be actively antiracist.

for be accountable can you tell me that the opportunities on your team have been equally distributed equitably distributed we have goals that we set over time and those shifts in change as we progress and it's the same with anti-racism so if we look at our disaggregated data and we see disproportionately we have people of color and lower ranks and our organization but not higher rates. we want to increase those numbers so that means we're going to focus on like i said mentor and we're going to focus on professional development we're going to focus on making sure people have access and opportunities and can be seen by leadership. companies that are doing this work well are willing to grapple with. the problem of racism they're not willing to settle for easy answers they are engaging people at

all levels of the organization on how we get creative and how we all work together to be anti-racist this is ongoing work that has to get integrated into the fabric of a company and should not just be siloed in one unit or and one position that it is a shared commitment throughout the organization. well when young people enter the workforce these days they don't just take whatever they can get they're the ones making the demands whether it's something like frank show where they get to sit in the office or if the company offers a caring and fair a workplace this generation really cares about ethics including those of its employees campaigners say respect existence or expect resistance. they need the superheroes who are going to save the world.

cash is a student in berlin he's only 20 but he's already politically active in the fridays for a future environmental movement. like many others in his generation he wants to create a sustainable and. free from discrimination and racism. and . i think generation z. is very value oriented we're very progressive very cosmopolitan and we're committed to tackling all kinds of injustice and that can be a problem when it comes to the kind of careers we want to have because many employers are still very traditional and conservative in their thinking. to save the world superheroes need superpowers. for generations that one way to change things is via social media. also works for the german platform tin can producing short educational videos for young people these topics of the gender pay

gap climate change and democracy and. we have to look at the bigger picture and not just that employers we have to consider how politics society and business interact if we want to achieve transformational processes and change of course employers must decide whether they're prepared to give young people greater opportunities without expecting them to have experience and. this or that area but we also have to take political measures that enable business to employ young people with little experience and give them a chance. the generations ahead doesn't just want to post and like things on social media it wants action people born in or often 995 make up generations and many vote green and eat less meat than their predecessors the many else and they expect a fairer and more caring workplace. a

job of the virtue of even this generation will be very demanding and have very specific ideas about what they expect from the world of work they have their own view of the world. they have demands and wishes and i think that they're less willing to compromise than the generation before. many young people $25.00 or rhonda would want any employer to respect and even embody that. diversity equality. flat tire rocky's. transparency for example when it comes to salaries and sustainability. they apply for jobs at companies that live these values and they take part in demonstrations to up hold these funds. it's really got there are more jobs than applicants right now or no it's not that means young

people are in the very privileged position of being able to pick and choose the position really suits them or not. that's why as long as often found young people are arrogant. they're not just realize they're standing on the same what they're worth they're not stupid. you know and they choose employers depending on whether. they're a good fit. for us. and that means for employers it can be a challenge to attract and keep talented young people. they're quite educated and looking back on previous generations on they're probably one of the most highly educated generations of recent history but that being said they're entering the workforce with considerable less job experience on than previous generations

so you know that's something that when you work place when and when employers start to think about you know how would what they need to do they need to consider the fact that yes we have very very smart people that are coming to work but that they're going to need serious training of the exam. klang pasha knows he's privileged to be in a strong position on the job market and has opportunities for personal development many others in his generation a less fortunate this was a fridays for future demonstration. but yes i think it might have you know the stage was here and the brandenburg gate is right behind him and even this is where fridays for future always stage their global strikes the fled the last one was on september 25th and 2020 tens of thousands of us demonstrated here i wanted to observing social distancing how for climate justice and for the german parliament to implement the 1.5 celsius cap in one of the talk. now it's deserted but even during the pandemic generations that refuses to be silenced for now on

passion is keeping up the protest online. while without racism and justice and environmental problems we all like that maybe we all need to be a little more the magic thanks for joining us today on the business show made i've been physical and see that side.
