the. 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 immediate in cultures around the world, people learn to classify small handful of animals with edible and all the rest of the classify as disgusting. a donkey series about our complex relationship with animals. debate, watch now on youtube. d. w documentary the, this is dw news aspect coming off on the program, could the and be in sites for one of the advocacy deadliest kiddos and you, malaria vaccines is boosting, hopes that the deadly disease can be eradicated. i'll speak to one of the top sciences working to save hundreds of thousands of young lives. also coming up in syria, neil and we take stock of new laws that ensure that local people, especially women, convincing ownership of the land. we hear from one of the lawyers,

we drafted the legislation plus the music sensation intensity of whose lyrics briefly landed him behind bars to find out why the rep and known as may when the table as upset feels already the told me already. but welcome to the program. the battle against malaria has spent decades but achievements and recent years suggest science might be gaining deal behind. the world health organization is just approved. the 2nd vaccine, which is expected to be more affordable and produced on a large scale. malaria kills half a 1000000 african children every year. but research as believe, these new vaccines could go a long way in saving lives. the parents in sub saharan africa have

reasons to be afraid of malaria. in 2021. almost all of the more than 600000 people known to have died from the disease, lived on the continent. and the majority of them were children under the age of 5. the whole now, is it this new vaccine? will mock a turning point of the money that asserted to and i used to dream off that day when we would have a safe and effective bucks and it gets monday to now we have to 1st job authorized by the w h. o. in 2021. that's already being rolled out in several countries, but we're such as a demand for malaria vaccines out strip supply. that the new show will be both cheaper and more widely available with up to $200000000.00 doses being produced per

year. having a 2nd vaccine available with some of the high advocacy, but also that has available supply and he's priced to level that makes it cost effective intervention is really gonna have a domestic impact in sub saharan africa. for all the optimism di signed to stress that the new vaccine will not eradicate malaria, as it does not prevent transmission. like holding it another vital weapon in the off know, alongside but nets and insight to sites in front of go. meanwhile, another solution is being worked on that could be a game changer at the cause institute pressed to the developing m r n a vaccines, the type that stopped people dying on mass cove at 19 the real potential messenger r renee is you can crush the time between the detection of a disease and have these sequences so fell. it was a time that you have

a vaccine available and connecting this public outside is a capacity to manufacture. and the manufacturer is really where you have the power of the missing journey. well that may lie in the future. the new vaccine already look set to reduce the risk of severe illness. and to save the lives of countless children as a 1st guest on the program. as rose neg, she's a distinguished scientist and even knowledge is from the university of young dame cameroon. welcome to the news advocate, professor lake a. you've dedicated you alive to the fight against malaria, among your many achievements, and you're here in berlin to receive the 2023 virtual prize for global. how 1st of all, congratulations on that. and what does this recognition this prize mean to you? it meant a lot to me if you're 76 years old,

coming from where i come from. and when i the entire family area, i know that infectious son got to this age. i'd have done all the work i've done over the years in malaria, in paulia and immunization in the community and fighting for women scientists and the rice, that schooling and training of students. i've done this all my life and then i get this lifetime achievement award. and really is very dear to my heart. it's a great recognition and i'm very grateful to the visual foundation for this, for this. yes, me now, malaria isn't usually high up on the global agend. do you think this award is, is a sign that things are changing things the true malaria we've done some watch has gone in to talk of see and off building capacity on funding and strategies. i've been part of the global malaria program. your visual has in place

the 1st miller, a police advisory committee that for the policy i was member of that working with dr. petra lens loans on his girlfriend, geneva, and so on, and then covering our research in malaria and my country and research. in pregnant women and doing the work we did in diagnosis and also we had responses and so on, you know, and then looking michigan that the fund global fund has been going on with the distribution of nets. all the preventive measures because you know, malaria can be prevented, can be cute, but progress hasn't really gone on well and the african continent it has stalled. and right now, the 11 countries that the really high impact, high board and high impact countries, 10 of them in africa. and one is india and more efforts have been put ton to define all of the strategies that one could use to move on the way forward from malaria

will also have at the university that puts on the defecting miller. a program that i quote share with for saw dan worth and we've been re thing king, what are the news try to just one can bring in to really help again move this forward. so we know the work is it's happening. the newest thing though, i see you know, other vaccines. that's one tool that we didn't have that was the, you know, other tools, but we really needed a vaccine to come to the right. and right now, beginning next said as vaccination, all 4 children, we have the r as the r t s rex and 1st. and then the, our $21.00 does was just approved also by the bleachers. so we have 2 new vaccines that can be used now for children, and that's going to help a lot its cvn, malaria that was killing children that are locked in africa. and that's going to really, you know, the percentages at least 30 to 7 percent 70 percent that fee. cuz the for this as

a way, counting on this new methods, this new tool now to help bring down that burden. part of that is the mention of the on m r n, a based vaccines. of course, those presents and challenges. what do you think these could be a game changer for malaria prevention? very much so i know presently that would be some production that can tell you even on the african continent itself, of these accents for malaria, this plan's going on with batch wiki gully and other places. and i think, you know, that is the way forward for us and this new technologies, divisions that have come out of things to, you know, covered. we learn to love trouble hood cause it 19 that thing. that's part of the way we've been there in the box and slides we're going to move forward in missouri . l. so it's in the pipeline. i know that right. we've seen that the success of vaccination and getting rid of some diseases like looking small box for example. um,

decades ago, are you hopefully even confident that we can do the same with malaria as well? smallpox went next, one to it is probably a which i chair the african certification commission for polio, writing cation for i region. i chair that commission. and what it will, you know, for indigenous, while polio virus is going out of the african con, you know, the african region. i read the declaration, august 25th, 2020 and handed the certificate to the regional director. what's bad for us really now? we saw the vaccine derive polio virus, which is still prevalent in the region, and we're really hopeful that we can get rid of these, the new vaccines coming against that that should be able to move us forward in that area. so for paul, you know, we're like 99 percent really bad, but that last one percent it's really getting harder,

but we will do it with 2 countries. still endemic flow rate and then does all the racks and the right for the viruses. so anyway, it was moving that malaria is still a little bit behind, but each come each year the global miller of program receives, i mean, the pleasure does declare countries you know, for familiar like china that used to have 30000000 cases is now free from a layer and other small islands and so, so we're hoping, you know, especially with the vaccines coming in, that we will see great improvements also in the, in the african region. yes. professor rose like a scientist and even all the just and the recipient of the 2023 virtual prize for global health. thank you for speaking to us and once again, congratulations. thank you very, very much. and it's really dear to my, had this price on thank you for this interview for this morning.

in sierra leone land ownership has traditionally been male dominated with women, often excluded from prophecy decisions. but recent legislative changes of aim to rectify this gender disparity. the adoption of the customary land rights act and agenda equality and women in palm and bill is meant to ensure that women and not discriminated against in land related matters, but instead entitled to the same rights as man it's an important meeting for the women of this village and sierra newest districts, a visitor has come to inform them about the new window was affecting them out by them. by that time i just woke up. i'm here today to tell you about my experience. the woman told me and to boost your confidence to empower you know, so you can always fight for your own right to susan country works with non

supervisor and then cause a mental organization mission, helping women. you can control over that on. so for example, after the husbands died, what and the this, what size women now also have the right to sign contracts with companies for medical not doing it so that they benefit from it. that's something what land does your life that said, and that's your right. let me read the last years here and implemented a number of far reaching lose the unprecedented enough for call for the 1st time women now have a legal rights to own lands and to decide what happens to it have been, i guess i didn't disability. i said, well might have yeah. i have yeah. i have yes. let me so your a so on your village. when nothing grows, husband died. people are not coming and it took good from her. she went to quotes and go to alons back a very variable as

a very variable. yes. and no one is taking the way for me as far as what i can possibly do. will i be able to take my life for my house? i'm impressively nice. i mean, i've done my garden this morning and i just a very good advantage of because of me in my line from the weekend. but this not only communities who end up controlling lum taken from women when their husbands died. austin, lines like this is least outside the families to for and companies. when this case grow trees for carbon credits. sounds good, right? this actually a big downside. that leaves us get very bad tons and women who has access to the lines where they used to grow for the new law and to help women re gain control of

that land from the families and the companies. and if they wish, so renegotiate that needs to agreement. that's exactly what's happened to that concept. we're now husband died, his family least deadline to a chinese company. but then the new law, how to explain that fact. since then, she has been sharing what you learn to ensure all the stuff at the same sites. the legal experts say the new laws are robust, a lot more work like that of susan's as me. the women across sierra leone name, their rights as i spoke to elena thompson, deputy director of know matthew syria, leo and an organization advocating for land protection and environmental justice. i don't know was one of the main voices pushing for legislative change to protect and promote women land owners. and i asked what effects she had seen since the changes were introduced? oh,

implementation. this is really still in its infancy. of course, the law needs to be known and understood by all of but some of what we, what we know is that because the customer align rights acts for instance, and ensures that women and men have equal rights to land. i'm your customer in law and prohibits laws or practices that discriminate against women and ensures a minimum of 30 percent representation of women on land decision making, the bodies at all levels from village level to national level. we're seeing even traditional authorities and women and men and men in communities being much more and deliberate about the inclusion of women in decision making processes

online when setting up um, lined up with instructors at the village level and share. and there's that there's at least that 30 percent representation. and how of sir and union man taking this as women make up the largest percentage of land users in the country. and so the contribution that women have a traditionally made to the improvement of the land. um, to production from the land and everyone really is able to see those benefits and that helps to make a strong case in and of itself before why their involvement is crucial. not to mention the fact that we've seen that

women in, in these communities tend to take a longer term vision for how the land can be used for and there in the communities, benefits versus the men have taken more of a short sighted approach to, to those issues and we see that the women's contributions to these discussions to lease negotiations, usually end up with provisions that provide for community development commute, the protection of, of a broader um, a percentage of the population looking at opportunities for young people as well. and so those are the positives that people see from women's participation in land decision making. okay. and then i think so giving us that picture and thompson,

deputy director of now matthews, early on thank you for speaking to us as the bulk of labor is one of tends and he is most popular music genres, but some artist facing restrictions and legal troubles for songs that criticize the government, recently the rock in mind to anybody, popularly known as ne, one, me tango was questioned by police and later released on bail. he's accused of incitement through his song. i'm kenny, which translates to wake up a song challenging tons, indians to hold the government accountable. good bye hope. you know it doesn't interrupt. you want me take any sam, can you take suggest 2 tests including the president. i'm yes

ma'am you have now, did you need to add your buddies sees you've just given voice? what? auditing venue, se i am up in step one is the love i received from my funds. well, i have nothing more to give back then to choose to incorporate that problems into my selling items. and i believe that what i'm doing is to spirits all kinds of needs. as the top pop up to 30 days have been designed from being performed in the country. but that has to be message from the hub is wrapped up more than 2 media views on youtube. so let's see, 3 days in july, i'm just, i'm not home. what do you need me to read the release the city times before full. he's i've spoken you about stage of the yeah, we've know facing accusations, awful sight meant by both of the countries as a good way to back that back. and they put in the constitution,

see then sonya is have the right to freedom of speech. but which group say repressive rules incorrect? those included showed that freedom in the country is being eroded. that's a number. who is this? not a good thing for freedom of expression. if it turns out that he'll be charged and cool with incitement, lawyers will be that to defend him. we'll defend him by any means necessary to ensure that we establish a strong foundation for office to carry out that work. not only for him, but any of the small or big offices to exercise their right to freedom of expression are true. that's almost what is the best that i say that i need to for there was, i think it is a consensus. they should create their work and submit it to the council. the council will review the work and grunt approval if no issues are found. afterwards, the artist can release this over to the public. and if we have that, i might probably know is

a known that some of the front lenders that let me let me take receive again. but you mentioned using musical mess. so you don't, i mean, as long as i feel the that way in terms in general because because i put the guy that i'm shot, i'm the post op day. i'm shout out to cool. so is it common thoughts as to challenge the government like this in times in the year? i asked somebody, allow me, the journalist in doris alone, i would say may let me take go is, is one of the few very few watches here in terms of the who has been, who have been, you know, a consistent in great in, in using the ok to, to, to challenge that, the government and i should mention that this is not the 1st time that they want me to go, you know, has got in trouble with the authorities. and the last, the restriction as well. they went to go release the saw, you know, back then we had to lead the president of men in regard to dr. potato. and he's

a demonstration president joining level 40. his administration did not like, you know, you know, critical feedback. they'd not like, you know, people talking uh no appraising, say, i mean, the, and all the way in there with people was, was brave enough pocketing when so many of the journalists activists in autism who were afraid, storage site, the government because the consequences were just too bad, so now you want me to go release the song by then criticizing the president and immediately though authority, you know, announced that the song is not supposed to be played on an enemy, didn't country, but really strangely, a lot of us was surprised to hear that the president actually say no, let that song, you know, be played, the people listen to that song and it was quite on using it and the predicted because that was bad. so, so this is how they let me table. it has been working, he did that box and we've seen him doing it this time. so what i would say nay is, is one of the very few under this thing test with yeah, i know a couple of, of not done at least as far as the, well,

one of the few artists musicians would been brave to criticize the government using the us, i know a couple of ization rough us who have even slipped the country because you know, they want it to remain critical to the government using the music. but then they, they couldn't stay in the country because it was too dangerous for them. you know, to, to continue. good. so i think the government using the odds so, so this is very much typical and consistent and braiden, they want me to go releasing yet another soul is enough that he's got any trouble with the authority to come of times. you've given us that comparison between the previous government and the current one, but you know, new government things and not quite the same. but can you give us a, a picture of what this all says about the current political climate and terms in yeah, even beyond music just relating to democracy and freedom of speech as. yeah. so the way i describe the, the current government, especially the civic space of the country. i just probably be this very, a confusing. you know, i,

you have the president who consistently o um, you know, talk about his impatient and you know, his, his, his plan, his vision to, to return the country to the democratic apostles. following up i have had a credit says i owe was to get his dictates, but you also have high subordinates of the people within the government, the police, the, you know, the communication, regulatory authority, the media regulatory look for each at lodge and things like that. who had been acting and saying quite contrarily to what the president, you know, is you know, one size into the public to believe that that's she's doing so. so you have the president to who portrays have government that's very, you know, open government, secondary democratic but has opponent, it's, you know, it's a bunch of different things threatening individuals like actors to like days. oh, even though the active journalist and the media. so it's very confusing and then we don't know exactly what is happening. maybe a little bucket wrongful for those who probably are not following much. the tons of

the important take is that when president somebody to call by the government from when, when she took office a little people with hopefully things will change following the day or soccer tournament. and she promised to meet you and say that we would have time to democracy. i would do reforms change laws allow media to operate freely. and so many of the promises that she met. but over the years we haven't seen that's happening. and now like you can see, you know, i feel critical voices, and i would say quite a few of them actually uh, just a few weeks ago. those are not another position and a female from southern tons of the but the song was bond. she was harassed together, we'd have find the lead just because of she released this one that was critical to the government. and so the president probably sees the democratic, the country she wants us to be. she's here for the psalms. we bought the practice, the real experience of many people, especially those workers to put to the government is quite different and that is very confusing for so many of us. okay,

so let me allow me. thank you very much for explaining that to us and given us a picture of what the space is like in tons and yeah, that's samuel, i'm a journalist, i'm political, i'm list so we can to us from doris a lot as well. that's that now i'd be sure to check out all the stories on dw com, forward slash africa on social media. we'll see you next time, bye for now. the

hello and welcome to the 77 percent. and then in addition, we're going to talk about the relationship and of course ok, great. but we also wanted to find out what a test results we sell and what makes relationships. what if he lets me the me and i, let's see here. the 77 percent thing says he minutes on the

w. think super intelligence and artificial intelligence. do you think that is a threat station manager at the end of commerce as well? is power. this is just is true today as it was before, but how does knowledge become insight? searching for answers difficult projects in like the in 75 minutes on d w, the fast fashion as an environmental nightmare. a closing graveyard image of land desert. this is where things wealthy industrial nations
