where at least $100000.00 ukranian refugees are found residence in berlin alone since the russian invasion and housing is becoming more difficult to find. it was supposed to be emergency accommodation, but for around 30 ukrainian refugees. this is home now. the community hall of the marcus congregation in berlin. the church pays for the refugees, stay here. finding a permanent apartment in berlin is almost impossible, unnatural. raska and her 8 year old daughter, anastasio, found a room for a few months. now they had to come back. they say the dormitory almost feels like home on the fled with her 2 children from odessa back in march or by alice good am . yeah, i was so scared when people in ukraine said you need to leave save your children because of i was so scared to go to a foreign country where i don't know the language of the people, the mentality. but here we have been treated so warmly. the volunteers here have

been so dedicated to helping the ukrainian refugees that the church has employed. some of them to sort through donations and groceries and help translate several are originally from russia. but here it's support in hard times that counts rather than national boundaries. and the volunteers expect a tough winter young couple to tuten this officers presume we have space for 80 people here. oh, $400.00 in case of a crisis, right? with winter setting in berlin's government is in a race against time. for example, at this former airport. currently new arrivals from ukraine register and live here temporarily before they can be moved on within berlin or to other german cities. to heated tents at the old airport house, $400.00 people each, but they're almost full. by the end of the year, the city plans to set up more permanent housing for an additional $10000.00 refugees on that see list as thus if a val gordon is what people stay in this temporary housing to be short from him so

that we can offer people a place to move on to my off of the mental unbeaten can, will stand on not hanging in wednesday that but at the moment people have been arriving faster than we can create places for them. either. shackleton, back at the marcus church community, one ukrainian family has been able to move into a permanent separate apartment after months and a tiny room with 2 infants. their mother, eula is relieved, but feeling fully at home can be hard. many of the families, relatives are still in ukraine. the damage along michigan's do much. we are living here in peace and quiet in a wal nice place. and they out there with, with the war dragging on and winter ahead. julia's family is lucky. even now hundreds of ukrainians are stuck in a rival centers in berlin, hoping for a more permanent home the sweeping effects of climate change can be seen in madagascar where

a trout has ravaged the southern part of the country. millions of people depend on emergency aid. a number then increases with each passing day. this is monet, volvo river, or what's left of it for 2 years. residents of cio may have to dig in the river bed, their main source of water that we are truly suffering my salad. and now it's really dry, dry dry. no, no rainfall actually says the rainy season should have already started. but once again, people are still waiting, lifted, i and her family left their village and came to town because of the drought back home. everything had run dry. but here things were not much better. yes, it's a tiny house, but this is what we can afford to rent. our house is in the village far from here. but we come here because we need access to water. we brought all the kids here and

now they work as water carriers. the gentleman on the line with fetching water and selling it is their only option of earning money for food. southern madagascar has always been poorer and dryer than the rest of the islands. the reason droughts combined with decades of neglect by the central government, has aggravated the situation. we meet the regional governor, he says there plans to build a road and a mess of water pipe to bring in water from areas better off. but he can say, when you can expect of those problems to be resolved within one year or 2 years for the last decades, nothing has been done. and this is the 1st government. this is the 1st regime which is taking care of the whole of a problem. he says residents are also to blame because for generations,

they have been cutting down the forests in the area. becket manambra over river lyford eyes says she has no energy to think about what is responsible for the crisis. they hand it with them. sometimes the children don't get any money until the end of the day. so late at night. sometimes we don't eat the whole day, we just stay hungry. then i just search the captain fruits. now we don't have anything to cook, so i need to go and look for cactus fruit. so we have a meal, you know, 400. so once again, she ventures out in the heat without shoes looking for something to eat, trying to make ends meet, finding food and waters, all the food i can think of every day, ah, pre marital sex is taboo in indonesia. and it will also be illegal from the end of this year. breaking the law could mean going to prison. unmarried, pregnant women are being forced to give their children away.

these children have one thing in common. they were all born outside of marriage. i have traveled to the city of saint martin in central java to visit an orphanage where some 80 children have been left behind you by their parents who made up it and expecting mother must call her retina. she has been waiting with 10 other pregnant women to give birth to a child that will grow up here without her. we have changed her voice to protect her identity. this was my mother's idea. for my family, it would be a disgrace to bring the baby home. they are worried about the family's reputation. my father even forbid me to contact my boyfriend. i've used a terrible about leaving my child behind with other father. but i hope to visit from time to time. so now the 19 year old is helping out at the office. more

women come here every day. the founder of the orphanage royce bowen or handling has even had to turn women back due to the limited capacity. somebody in a young man all will calliah browser. so far i have said yes, i called 47 women waiting for billy for a big bottle. jordan at my mamma. it would be a different matter if the women were willing to give their children up for adoption by. yeah, and i am a little oh, but most mothers like that now would rather get the option open of returning one day. in indonesia society pregnancy outside marriage is still to boot. and pre marital sex is widely unacceptable. was this a lot, but i'm wondering because we're talking about the stigmatization of women. what. how it's unbelievable. it's not just in this case i really asked myself, why are women always being stigmatized? people forget who made them pregnant in their view, it's always the woman's faultless, this kind of stigma is the result of

a centuries old, patriarchal culture or apples to apples down it all day about that out. okay. that nice. expecting her child in 2 months until then she will live in the orphanage right now. she is actually quite relieved that she no longer has to conceal her pregnancy. i used to wear a corps it, but over the time that was obviously no longer an option. i also got weaker and in my housing block, people started to ask questions. my landlord even tried to interrogate me that my is focusing on the future. she hopes the pregnancy will go well. one day, she would like to run her own business. and her biggest dream of all to come back for her 1st child. ah, our last trip is to finland. home of the country's largest pig lit form. here the pigs have curly tails, which means they're happy,

which is uncommon in most of europe. these pig lights are probably among the happiest in europe. they belong to timo. hi colette, a finnish farmer who works hard to ensure all his animals are well cared for. another thing that's unusual about high kayla's herd of pigs. they all still have their tails bend. if once i am ring, when their tails crawl up, it means the pigs are doing well and i know they're happy in clerkley. it's something many pigs wouldn't know about it. most european countries, they have their tails cut off from early on using a caught arising iron that burned them off. the idea is to stop the pigs from biting each other's tails. but animal rights activists have long seen it as a brutal practice that needs to stop. one of these,

i will high kayla's pigs never bite each other's tails. he says they just need enough space and appropriate toys to distract them. on bosses, i know this here is made of rubber and feels a bit like a tail. the eye on that in front of him is so if a pink has a need to do something with its teeth, they can just chew on this. the fuel of buffer, and i'm still here cohen at his farm in southern finland. high kilo rears over $100000.00 pigs each year to sell to farms that then fattened them up for slaughter . he also used to cut off their tails. but in 2003, the practice was declared illegal in finland. it's supposed to be banned right across the european union. but nearly all member states allowed exceptions on mass there. well, that's something taro. anti canaan is working to change. she's part of an organization that advises european, pick farmers together with people like team or hi keira. she's fighting to improve standards on europe's pick farms. biggest obstacle always his attitude. if he think

that, oh, i can't do leak. of course you can't. you have to think from the animals perspective, from the coating animal things and stop thinking about money. how much money can i make for me, tim? oh hi kilo, make sure they not only have sufficient space, but also that they're not too hot or cold. when on her own, then move on, even installed his own ventilation system and tried it out for himself to check its effectiveness. i'll be help here. give me your leg. i laid down right here and i was half naked. and then i stopped the air coming in and i thought, no, i wouldn't want that for myself with all drawn under. and so i developed this new ventilation system this megan helped me, he's on the to live doing system. and because with this much love, it's no wonder that team or high killers pigs or thriving, he can't understand why 30 years after the law was changed, the ban on amputating pigs tails still is an enforced across europe.
