activist was able to provide critical care to her patients in the capital, a piece, tina, and l square. there are many people who rely on therapy to shield from the atrocities they suffered during a conflict that ravaged the people decades ago. a free me isn't his real name. we've changed it to protect his identity. he was 19 years old when to serve you in policeman rate 10. that was more than 25 years ago during the call civil war between ethnic albanian striving for autonomy. a nationalist serves the trauma, he says, has been eating out to him ever since i kept putting off going to the doctor. so it's like my trauma got so bad that i couldn't leaving work properly, which was so it'd be the re, she has been helping him. she's

a doctor and founder of the eat organization, t r. c t. the introduced woman and her 30 employees look after torture survivors over 1300 to date. so do you know that most of them are women who survive sexual abuse or organizations work is funded from abroad with a fish coming from u. s. c. i t until recently, shortly after sweeping into the white house for a 2nd term, donald trump proves us the id funding is a huge problem for bushy t feeling missed at 1st, it was an incredible shock and you said i can't really put it into words. the last we learned of the decision on a weekend, the me that forced us to suspend parts of our work for an initial period of 3 months. but time y k r c t is still providing psychological support for women, like susanna. also not her real name. she was read and abused multiple times during the war. it took her years to find the courage to seek help from k r c. t is

how i raised my children, you know, being able to speak about it a key r c t helps address the widespread stigmatization of victims. and that's just one example of how the suspension of us the id is affecting costs of $1.00 of your reps peruse countries. it was until now also one of the largest recipients of us aid and the western balkans over $500000000.00 in the last 5 years. no cost, if it was government is doing what it can to limit the damaged, by diplomatic means, means about to understand the boss quite often. when you click on you on the soft today, of course, there's now and you go from and to the us with its own political priorities. um, especially on how to spend taxpayers money. that's what i call. hopefully, i'm going to complex it. of course, it's going to come up. this doesn't change the strong relationship between our 2 countries. model venue, which extends to many areas,

how many pets it offers. 3 and some poor despite repeated requests for an interview with the american embassy, we receive no response. so read the receipt to you is not surprised or trust in the us as being deeply shaken. things used to be different because i see this is a photo of me with the 1st lady, maloney a trumpet to me, is that some of it on the department to see somebody coming in for 0 set to cut out . that was in march 2018. seen that when the us state department selected 10 women from around the world to present them with an award for their courage and strength and body to, to work on the band with quantifier was one of them missing a tune of function we can do may assessment at home, not question. a question at the time donald trump, us the sitting president as of the from president jeff to us rule. she was recently nominated for this years. nobel peace prize by a swedish member of parliament. a free me

a networking event for like minded people in the town of long, and there's a similar trend in italy, whereas some young voters say they occur in the hard drive and popular government is not going far enough to protect what they consider to be italy's identity and the culture they are young and the vote for rights. more and more young people in europe are turning to right wing and nationalist parties. what's behind a shift to the rights we are in wrong since 2022. utility has been governed by a right wing nationalist coalition. for the for however, considered a stem to solve the history student as a member of a neo fascist use organization. i remember that to the fact that joe re, than me interests the most politics was the 1st section of the time. yeah, so the frontier on 2016. because i remember that the

people said this, i'm a talk about the, these facts, the has a negative surprise. so this is generated. my 1st thing to us the most the most to use who takes us to the district who's construction was commissions by the tell the and dictator benito mussolini in the early 1913. so the, everything was bad, them to newport tells us, pointing to the architecture as an example. he says it totally has to become a trunk nation again. since that immigration must be stopped and the power of the leads must be real quick. for me, it is on success anymore, right? i left you at the, the police to one side and the single police to other side, but especially to defend our, i worry them to the global war, the something very, the single preserving their own identity. that's what virginia view the eclipse and its priorities as well. the 21 year old likes to speak about strong women and to be

cruel. they played during the fascist era. we did, you know, it takes us into the headquarters a force on one of the neo fascist party. they are getting ready here for a protest march to this plan. and the next day you into sports and all that i, i joined force in over between 20202021 after the street protests over the anti cubic measures. it is showing you, you know, when the strong popular resistance against the restrictions was silenced. first and well, was the only movement that raised its head and stared to engage in genuine social protest. i stopped when i found it in charge of it. we are surprised that he genia has no problem. let me take him to the streets along with well known right wing x from is that she seems committed to fashion an ideology that's defined as all to a nationalist and anti liberal. elizabeth. we made up with professor cloud tournament and we know use research and author of numerous studies on the topic.

port them on says it's done in co little historical awareness. some young people have human though it is infinity. this young people don't feel right when, because they think i have problems. my generation has big problems that's getting a lot on how we can get into the economy. the job market is confusing. digitalization is rolling over as we feel we have lost control of our lives due to coven? yeah, happens to go on up. it's this mix of issues, and they need an answer for that team. how do this commission is the intensive while since they are not slow? but why are the officers offered to the right wing x room is proving so popular. we attend a dinner party on the wrong and in the netherlands. it's hosted by the name of the . the daughter of curtis immigrants needs a ride twinkies organization. young voters help the right wing populous cam with the most recent parliamentary elections, and then have a nice, really lovely country. read like our history, our identity, and we like the people here and we ones to completion. and it's,

it's now becoming less and less. you don't know who your neighbors are anymore. people really talk to each other. most of the people who are members of a party called for them for democracy. they are against the you and the euro. they claim the dutch identity must be protected from islam. ization has also invited right wing populist from other parts of europe. that'd be amazing. understand that you're from spain striking with how much content the dinner guest speak about human rights. the young right when populist are calling for an ethnic leave homogeneous society. they reject the diversity for email the distance fully behind it, even though her parents are courteously together. so they have integrated, a 100 percent. she tells us is high in promotes her believes on social media

including conspiracy theories for. ringback it was through social media that she connected with bite wings. ideology even says when we meet for coffee and i'm still down, i think it's because social media people are less afraid to think what they think because they see the donor people social media are willing to talk about stuff or show stuff or do sports and it's okay, to be a man, it's okay to be wides. nowadays, social media plays a crucial role in the political discourse. says close world on the use research from germany heading that the fact that by doing parties upfront, there is there's tricks, you'll make another tune. the young generation is definitely political and they are guided by their needs and interests. so i, to a high extent young people are present online and communicate this way. this is almost as important to them as the content itself. you know, and that's why political parties have to have a digital presence degree type because it's going digital. and also in concrete

solutions, we have learned doing our trip across europe. that is, tablets. parties have to take seriously whole young people feel to get them excited to get involved can fashion bring hope to award to a certain country? absolutely. say, mary, i got value and natasha come and scott, they are designers from ukraine, and their inspiration comes from traditional local ad tire and to be ongoing war. but do unto per norris have made quite a name for themselves in the country, as well as beyond ukraine's borders. they firmly believe that the clothes they manufacture not only tell a story and to help create jobs, but can also increase more while i'm on those non fighting at the front line. training and made session has become a symbol of resistance. as designers to fight

a war, the creation celebrate life, despite all the pain and offer a glimmer of light in times of despair. a ukrainian fashion designers, natasha and maria, are convinced that session can inspire hope. they combine traditional crossman ship with modern designs. i guess the smart now back to the roots were the ones to speak about ukrainian. but in the threatened your way into a, you know, as of ways it's going to be understandable for modern people, for a young generation to showcase houses for this. can, you know, be a part of your lifestyle? and it's what we are labeled is a success story. traditional attire for ukraine in farm hands inspired an entire world and felt collection research how to see ages and recreate. it's something

you it's also resembles, you know, as you want on boys. jago looks, etc, but it's, it's all i was before in ukrainian culture as well, but so we would create this is into, in, in the brain and kind of way. and it's also one of the sellers, so people buy another great success for the designer. joe was when a leading actress and the netflix series, many in paris or pajamas from the collection. and thereby help the label make its breakthrough in the international fashion, saying that diet definitely works as a, you know, brand of a growth of brand awareness. and so we bring in an international markets as well, because i remember the times when i restarted his date 10 or even a 15 years ago, and no one wanted to coordinate in design and design is it wasn't the fashion it was in the cold. but the times have changed despite all the grief and pain around the ukrainian women wants to dress well and enjoying life. done. a part of,

of sca says use to buy mostly for and fashion. it was viewed as something valuable . but since 2022, she started appreciating everything ukraine, which more the 1st of the when i browse the shops, i always end up buying ukrainian sessions. and then when i no longer buy mass, produce goods and all my friends, including many foreigners, are always impressed. i'm to, they always asked me, where did you find that we put that to socialism? queen. so there's no attacks that the class no doubt of to him. it's maybe women who keep the business running the ukrainian economy along with its thousands of jobs depends on the fashion industry. but it to face the serious challenges. power outages and supply bottlenecks to name the most common. and i just don't think we have become stronger, although the war has been going on for 3 years now. and so when they, we always find solutions. despite the difficulties we face the style, we're trying to become more resilient the even though we face greater difficulties, commercial guy, mostly it was to it was almost impossible to find train stuff at 1st. that was nice

. he said, but many ukrainian women have returned from abroad says natasha to buy them, put them on that. so they created new jobs and they're now even expanding for should not be. i'm used to having just 13 people for working here and they call in our this production stuff is like more experimental. so then they have a lot of supply these ukrainians are finding joy and to find the war as best they can. whether that's by creating trendy apparel for showing it off the runway. norway is one of the world leading oil producers. that's things to people like him beyond a caps that he used to be an oil worker, a job that helped boost his country's economy, but which also took a huge toll on his physical and mental health. beyond it and his former colleagues

worked on an oil rig in the north seat of the south western city of stop i am and now they are demanding compensation from the government. in this oil platform is a model in a museum down a cap. start of norway worked on one like it for 20 years. he doesn't have many good memories at that time. of the 1980s, when he and his co workers were happy, truly exposed to toxic substances. i worked on the crane to to the next. they are exhaust fumes from the turbine engines with blast right in our faces. you'll find them in a tough sometimes. we'd have to come back down after just a few minutes knocking stock. can we believe himself? you're an asset all working on the tanks. that was really bad. they have many of us even through up to the longest speed by age 44 cups. so it was unable to work diagnosed with mental disability. now a pensioner, he can barely remember things quickly overwhelmed even by visitors in his own home

. the. well, i'm always getting busy, and i think kathy, just leave on the country, the go and have a secret time. not doing well. that's a little can get very empty. social is for fiano, former oil rake workers like cups that are called pioneers of norway's oil age. southerners oil museum pays tribute to them. in the 19 seventy's and eighty's, they were hired by the state to extract as much oil and gas from the north sea as they could as quickly as possible. but when workers like cups that started asking for compensation for the damage they'd suffered while working there, please fell on deaf ears down and move the whole time. so cold experts were making us feel like we were just pretending on the so it was pretty nasty and now i see that well, they not until late 2024 did the majority of norway's parliament vote to compensate

the former oil workers who had been affected by their unsafe working conditions, even so the government was reluctant to be wary of the prospect of a deluge of loss and since no apologies were forthcoming to the if you still get the money. well that's for me and most seo. i wish to express my things to these people. there we go in shootings, but as prime minister i can only offer an apology in certain cases some because i don't wish to do that here. i didn't say or no. the opposition accused past governments of prioritizing oil revenues over the health of the oil workers for senior living at the start of our wiley age, in the 19 seventies and 18. so the government worried that such occurrences might endanger the oil production of the thing. it's good, like a new lesson to make sure we could continue to drill and extract oil, beautiful folks that they didn't want to email it to such thing as a boy, right? let's allude and discuss them. an issue with this book is a hacked like you normally somebody, all this sitting in the north seat, divers did receive compensation for their occupational impairments,

but only after all is good for them. and that's and, and his colleague growth began, had sued the norwegian government, in strasburg therapy in court of human rights in oil production, the 2 pioneer divers worked as deep as 500 meters below the surface. and then in 2016, the court ruled the incorrect pressure tables for decompression. procedures were to blame for the brain damage they sustained during that time on the over about so many. so i wanted to retrain as an ambulance driver, but when the time came for me to take the test, i shouldn't, i'd forgotten everything. tell me anything to help coordinate to speak on the phone . but then the dumpsters told me my cognitive deficit it to get worse over the years. so both of us at the back some the never in fact clearly has to do with the diving to hit the 3. that was all, it was somebody about write down a cup 7 other former oil. rick workers are still waiting to receive compensation

for the damage they've suffered to their health. hundreds of died in the meantime. the survivors say they don't have much time left or ahead. doors should be by suffer from a still processing that does on that. it won't end well. ship all my bones, keep getting softer, fee of 8. when while the old boy who was you it's time something happened before. even more of us are gone. yeah, no feel, and hopefully at the front of all of them. man, we won't get her house back either way, had some, some do or all those years last, already talked to. and even if the decades of legal wrangling come to an end for piano cop stopped, and others the painful after effects up their work in the north sea will not as long as they live. if you have a cat allergy like i do, you may have to be careful when visiting is symbol,
