you're in fact arresting members of important ngos.hamas police force not only arrested journalists, they also arrested two members of the independent commission for human rights, a palestinian watchdog group, and they proceeded to beat them up, with dozens of security officers involved. amnesty international said the human rights violations perpetrated by hamas against protesters, againstjournalists and human rights defenders, have become more severe than we have seen in more than a decade. i think, if you now have a round or a trip in the jails and the detention centres, in gaza, you will never find a political prisoner here. you will never find a journalist in the detention centre. you will not find anyone who is kept because of his political opinion now. i give you a chance now to come to gaza and to go everywhere and to ask. i don't deny that some mistakes were done in the past, with some people here and there, but i think we are under stronger pressure, sometimes from the occupation, sometimes from our brothers in ramallah that t

after gaining experience at an international ngo, he set up the c.o.p. at around 3:00 in the afternoon, the younger on rage tans come out of the trees, tired of playing. they return to their cages with their handlers. the handlers begin preparing dinner for them. when the young return to the wild, finding their own food will be their most vital skill. each orangutan must figure out for themselves how to find food from inside the bamboo. they all try to extract the fruit. the bamboo has been cracked so it's easy to break apart. they begin to squabble over the fruit, realizing that sitting and waiting won't win them the prize. their orangutan instincts are on display. about ten kilometers from the facility is a river island maintained by the c.o.p. orangutansns live here to experience life in the wild before being released. since they don't swim, they are safe on the island. staff stay inn a hut on the riverbank to keep an eye on them 24 hours a day. currently there are four orangutans living on the island. the c.o.p. needs government permission to release

s here in the southwest of the country the ngo recently installed a modern shea butter production unit here 200 used to be very has been training some of the women from the local village of super gun to. crush english say colonels provides the rule material for the batter. the work is physically much easier and the women are able to produce more better the quality has also improved so they've seen their incomes go up significantly. looking at the future of our children school fees and health care for our kids. the ngo hopes that by improving the women's financial situation this will in turn help to protect shade trees. it isn't part of the families of these women who are chopping down the trees so if we can convince them of the importance of protecting the trees they can in turn help to persuade others and when they see they can earn more from the butter they'll be more motivated to protect that source of income and . get on. with the projects in bikini 1st so count on the women and their families realising that it's in their own best interest to keep the shade trees a life. let's head

it has been left to ngos. some of them based in germany who have done an outstanding job in highlighting particular individuals who have been the focus of this. the u.s. has shown leadership in respect to the magnitski act in a different context in targeting specific individuals. and what i've seen from my experience, and around the world, u.s. leadership provides leverage, and when you give more aid, you're in a stronger position to gulf countries to step up and when you expand the numbers, you are in a better position to say to the european union, you got to step up as well and perhaps to tread into more difficult territory. when the u.s. embraces the notion that civilian casualties need proper independent investigation, it also sends a very important message about what we really mean by accountable government and by liberal democratic principles. and it seems to me that is the message that goes out, that when you set an example, you get leverage, and i think that's where, what we see, and when that example

done from agreed to work but more and more children are exposed to risk of conflict why hasn't the ngo been able to prevent that. preventing children from being at risk of conflict is actually a much more political solution than the charitable world would have you got to stand. children are coming to conflict we are living in a time where more and more disharmony is being soaked around the world including in the u.k. where i live and what we need to do is to see political solutions rather than charitable a kevin charter which is really the last i want to see. my problem with the way we try to sell aid as the solution is that it comes at the very end huge part of the work that really what we need to be looking at is empowering citizens to hold their own governments to account and we need to start by doing that you know in the countries that this money comes from as well as working to support and solidarity people and their children in other countries it's a much more complex picture than a charity selling you a 5 pound vaccination would like to see your point taken now there are allegat

the ngo and u.n. responders. there's a lot of bad information floating around. there's -- it's really confused. there's political implications of this because they're opposed to the khartoum government. there's about 100 rebel groups operating in these two provinces and there's a variety of kinds. there's feuds over clan, over feud ownership, rebel organizations that are fighting with each other, and they're fighting with the khartoum or government and they're based in these two provinces but fighting with rwanda and uganda, the most well-known one is the adf, allied democratic forces. it's a very extremists islamic group. it's been in the -- in north kibu since 1985. their objective is to overthrow the government in uganda. it is a very violent organization and very brutal one. and then you have criminal gangs doing all sorts of things. they're existing and profiting through extortion rackets and illegal minerals and then you have community militias who defend a particular community against all. they're known quite often. you've got all different kinds of group

>> civil society is divided and most of the ngos and there's a distinguished society in the ngos. most are backing poroshenko, and have been backing poroshenko, the patriot minded ngos and again, if you look at the map, where poroshenko won is downtown kiev. kind of explaining, and this is their bubble, not allowing, particularly the europeans to see what's going on in the country, unfortunately. let's not forget the anticorruption activists are backing zelensky because, you know, let's remember 50 activists has been attacked only last year, and five of them died. we never had such a year in ukraine. in spite of this, and a lot of this clearly connected to poroshenko people in the region as well as the sbu, you know, and so on and so on. you know it's kind of like, you know, but the nation building and the agent is powerful and is still a lot of civil society people backing poroshenko because of that. now, a little bit because of -- and you know, like that division is going to stay and exactly the transition is going to be marred or attempted to be marred as much as possible. whic

coming out and doing sessions like this, talking to small and thee groups and talking to ngo communitys an important aspect of that role is something not all our officers do. if you're undercover, do not something you can do. you need to have folks who have the ability to reach out and talk to the public about these issues. are providingwe information but we also need to take information in as well. cia is it or not, the civilswered every liberties concern is not the sole author of ideas in this space. there are difficult issues in the digital world we live in. we have thoughts on those and input but there are great ideas in the private sector. there are great ideas in the rest of government. there are many things where cia is not the policymaker. we should not be making the decisions. we have to have the ability to engage with the public and the ngo community to talk about these things. meat of bit about the what it is you are trying to about itnd how you go and what are the specific roles may be and some of the issues that come up from those. talking toed about the people in the advo
