it's the ngos, the non—governmental organisations."o suggest. well, you can imagine that the president and the cabinet receives information from many different parts, and at that time, we have received, as cabinet, as a whole, information from many different sources, by saying that people were setting fire on purpose. it was not confirmed for certain points, but somehow, at that moment, it was some of the arguments that came out. i don't think there was any questions these fires were set on purpose, but the clear objective of the people setting the fires was to burn the trees to create new lands to be cultivated. it's true, it's correct. part of the fires... so, why would your president suggest the ngos were involved? indeed, why did he then go on to fire the highly respected boss of the space and satellite agency, saying that ricardo galvao was "at the service of the ngos"? what is the president doing and thinking? well, there's a whole narrative conflict in brazil since when bolsonaro was elected, when the left lost the position in g

this is where many ngos feel there is a program but we try to fight hate. what i'm talking about it is about america doing the best job that it can at the ground level and doing what we need to do with the ngos. are there other things with a thousand different others? but in the work that i have done they need support and critical data in that information and the government isn't enough. and what we have to do is work hand in glove anyway that we can. >> so across sudan and with a very vibrant that existed. and then with that fusion completely but i also thought a third factor that i wanted to transition. because in many of these places in south sudan owes horrific governments are taken advantage of of certain international resources. and there is impunity for those other resources. and advancing in violence that has been backed up with this islamic absolutism. so i wondered if the frustrated person is watching thiste unfold can you give me any word to show me how to better understand how you see it in terms of violence or something to give me more hope qui

but kids from 2 schools are now collecting old plastic bottles the project was started by the ngo. an organization that was founded by mcqueen and michelle schmidt from germany. to the fair with these huge amounts of custom of it scared me of affected by the kids it's shocking why didn't the kids find them if they're right. shows that when you hear action it's actually pays you keep. the kids also tell their friends and families that plastic spoils the environment. the recycling company pays the school's $0.08 a kilo for the plastic. and i don't think i'm lying hussein by and i think collecting plastic is a good project but that it brings in money to pay for new school books that are not but the rundown that. can supports clean up projects in over 30 countries. and how about you. if you are also doing your bit tell us about it visit our website or send us a tweet hash tag doing your bit. we share your stories. on monkeys are closest on the relatives but are under threats in many places in africa so protected areas are needed to help these primates of life one of the biggest song tu

we relied on ngo's and faith-based organizations. that is one example the government of mexico is doing. they are relying on ngo's to help them with individuals, including mpp. t u.n. is helping them address and deal with individuals enrolled in mpp. international organization for migration is there assisting through the u.n. and the government of mexico. they are providing free services for people enrolled to return to their home country if they feel unsafe or getting tired of waiting. the majority no they will not quality -- know they will not qualify for asylum. we are closing those loopholes. now the message is finally getting out. we are trying to overcome the message the cartels of inputting out that it will be a free ride. if you're coming here as an economic migrant, you will not be allowed in the united states. reporter: the u.s. is not doing anything? me follow-up on what she is asking you. is there operational and financial collaboration with the mexicans? the president has been complement about what they are doing. what i

or being brought our cost, go straight to a process by border patrol and get walked straight to an ngo to get distributed into the country in all of this is completing the cycle of smuggling. can you talk about that and the exportation of our laws and havoc comes together? >> the question hits the nail on the head. because your average news consumer, even if they are fairly well-informed, they have the impression that the people at the border are trying to evade and you know that is not true. they are right up to the station because they have been coached, not just like along the route but of course the hearing on the radio in their own countries, the word spreads very fast and quickly and we know now, in your state that it's not just central america, all the african migrants as well have been coached and i think that is alarming and that these people around the world are far more informed about immigration laws and all the ins and outs in the nuts and bolts and how to work around the loopholes and in many cases it's not loopholes is how it works. and then the american people are about

drug cartels to give them the final passage and everybody is making money and then you have these ngos as you mentioned a get their own cut of the profits. i think what's most offensive to people who really understand the way this works is that in essence this is a global human smuggling racket and they just prosecuted for that and found guilty but this is a reality in america, harming american citizens but also the migrants who seek to come who are abused, the women and children on journeys while these illicit illegal organizations profit. you said the important part of our compassion. to me this is a false than a compassion, the open borders are selected for migrants. it's backwards. it's empowering these illegal organizations and again you talk about these things in your book and i'd love to your point on that before we move on to a different chapter. >> guest: i agree with you. the massive systemic exploitation of innocent people to walk but we all want, better life for themselves and their children. it breaks my heart and the number of ponds in this cruel and inhumane gain of open

mahmoud know dean is a journalist and an environmental activist in 2015 he founded an ngo for climate change and food security focusing on farming he launched a campaign against the use of these bottles here and saw for farmers have had bad experiences with it but i used a group chemicals on my from and would just leave the containers there that wasn't good at all as one day my grandchild picked one fish water with it and drank it she felt the treatment was very costly it was a big worry fortunately the agric officer explained to us that we should not leave the used containers on the farm so now we gathered all and put them in a tray cycle which goes to dump them forward of. course b. is part of new didn't awareness raising tim he works for the agriculture ministry for and passed on his knowledge to the families 'd 'd. i mean sent off for. a year now and we have been educating farmers on proper disposal of continuous. place our farmers. on the face the farmers i've been going through the use of chemicals so. on how to dispose them tell me where induction of these cases many of the far

the ngos says many people are simply unaware of the problem. but a binge on. the issue of littering hasn't been widely discussed so it was quite difficult for us to educate people on that people assume that what we say isn't important they listen to us half heartedly especially at the beginning of the angioplasty movement in bali around 2010 bodies and what it was we wanted to become but in the us. trash talk organizes workshops and up a form and says in their campaign to change people's consumer habits. and they're having some success last year bali's local government issued a new law to restrict the use of disposable plastic shoppers now have to bring their own eco friendly bags to supermarkets for the most part the measure has been accepted by customers and also the stores. that you. can't get out we've told suppliers about possible techniques and methods to handle products without plastic. like. some of us used banana leaves to wrap items. are still having a hard time with some products especially old gani or hydroponic wines because we use plastic contain

the ngo is also trying to keep the children off the streets with education and sports. what is crucial to change this is education it's what will allow them to dream of going to university many of the kids we have here don't know how to read and write you can't get out of poverty without education and jobs. and that's something governments here have repeatedly failed to resolve. even though argentina is a country that produces food for millions of people around the world it has failed to resolve its structural economic problems leaving millions of children in the country. and ignored.

you are joined by those from the ngo community, industry and capitol hill. perhaps this is the first time so many stakeholders have a lawful access conversation have been in one place. i am especially thankful to be joined by two good friends from abroad, our staunchest allies, peter didn't, administer for home affairs and the home secretary of the united kingdom. i think each of you for accepting my invitation to be here. our nations face a constellation of common security concerns but we don't face them alone. we have always stood shoulder to shoulder in the fight for freedom, peace and security and we will continue to do so. just last night, freddie and i on behalf of our government signed the first ever agreement under the cloud act which became law last year thanks to industry support, bipartisan congressional action and the president's leadership, that act greatly facilitates criminal investigations by allowing law enforcement from each country to obtain evidence directly from each other's commercial providers pursuant to legal process that safeguards

militaries can defeat other militaries, but it is up to the rest of the government, ngos, and others to actually win the peace. as you look at the complex situation on the ground in syria today. civil war, international meddling, very complicated relationships with neighbors. walk me through if you could what is the route to peace and stabilization? i should start with a johnny cash of "i walk the line" in giving this answer. i am keen to hear from the other panelists, and it is delightful to join all of you today. i think we have a moment where there is a sense that the iraq decisionngs over every that has been made in syria. and certainly on the ground in the northeast, there is a moment and something to protect because having had the privilege of traveling in and around the northeast six times in the past, i will tell you it is a story of progress and very fragile, very endangered, but very real gains that moms and dads are fighting for every day. what hasrner, you have ane its job and too good job because nobody wants to pay attention to it. -- anothernny cash johnny cash song ev

the men and women of the many ngos that help are astonishing. everybody should be clap and honor, because they're really good people. [applause] but fundamentally are, fundamentally the way fema has been structured is not the best way to be helping america sometimes anymore. >> why not? what is it that they don't do that you are able to do? >> because it's a super big corporation that is more handling contracts. and when you're hungry, if you have americans hungry, you cannot start initiating a contract with anybody. when we go to california and the firemen are hungry, on paper it's a contract between the firefighters and a catering company. but you know what happens with the catering company? nobody's showing up to work because they're trying to save their homes and save their lives. so you need to think out of the box. we cannot be contracted. we are an ngo. we go and we help when nobody is there to help. so i do believe we need, hopefully, the next democrat or republican administration -- because i don't think this one is up to the task -- th

an australian agronomist with the ngo world vision tony rinaldo has developed a method of counteringdeforestation that affects large parts of africa his work want him the right livelihood. also known as the alternative nobel prize as land is cleared of the vegetation the land gradually degrades and becomes less and less productive less and less can be grown at less profit can be made from it and people become more desperate so there is a very strong link between hunt flicked and landed predation and also between what migration and then degrade. my mourner trial rate tells rinaldo that she now has to get her charcoal from 160 kilometers away because sources closer to bamako have dried up it's a similar situation in and around many of africa's big cities the disappearance of forests and degradation of the land is a huge problem. how do we tackle that fortunately through famine managed natural regeneration through the regeneration of trees and landscapes is a very low cost rapid and scalable method to reverse that degradation in the 1980 s. we're now discovered that in many places there

melinda: well, there is commendation both from civil society groups, ngos, and from some members of thepposition saying this is necessary step in the right direction, but that mild praise is mixed with a lot of concern about whether this goes far enough and also about the feasibility of implementation, particularly when it comes to holding the online platforms to account. brent: and how can the authorities ensure that social-media platforms are going to cooperate? melinda: well, that's the central issue. obviously by imposing fines, german law does already impose fines on companies that don't take hate speech down when they encounter it. the opposition is saying any fines that are imposed are not large enough and don't contain strict enough measures. and the fact is, it will be very, very difficult for authorities to oversee to what degree the online platforms are complying. let's say they do comply. again, a huge burden on the authorities, which presumably would be swamped with various notifications that they would have to pursue, and many, many experts say the authorities absolutely a
