The Role of Philanthropy in Sustainable Development
The role of philanthropy in sustainable development stands as a beacon of hope and progress. Partnerships, collaborations and community engagement are essential to the impactful achievement of the vision. The premise of philanthropy as intentional and impactful investment rather than charitable giving, highlights the mindset shift as organisations are embedding social impact into their business models and operations. They are doing so by taking a long-term, strategic approach focused on systemic change, in keeping with the community, socio-economic and environmental objectives.

Rising Above Bias: Opening the Channels of Trade, Export & Investment
Sustainable and Innovative opportunities heightened by technology and a growing recognition of the economic benefits of women's participation provide much optimism in the business ecosystem. By expanding the channels for trade, export and investment through the elimination of bias and discrimination, we can foster inclusive global economic growth and cooperation. The factors limiting women's participation range from the lack of robust data on women in business, cultural and systemic biases, societal and government expectations, risk aversion, limited access to financial instruments and technology, as well as, the lack of access to knowledge and skills training. When stakeholders make conscious efforts...

Healthy Cultures: Why culture improves our wellbeing far beyond organisational boundaries
What do organisations that make a geniune contribution to our wellbeing do differently? Hint: it's not relying on office morning teas, gift vouchers, mental health days or mindfulness apps. Organisations that understand improving their employees experience of work is the most effective and important to positively influence wellbeing, individually and collectively, are the ones getting it right. This episode clears up the common misconception that wellbeing is an individual's responsibility and places it in its correct context - that it's a collective responsibility with collective benefits; and, importantly, every organisation has the power to make a measurable positive contribution to...

However, GBV covers a much broader spectrum which includes human trafficking, gender/sexual bias and discrimination, female genital mutilation and child marriage. Recently, the demonstrations in Iran depict girls taking off their hijab and cutting their hair in protest and unison for the biased treatment of women which led to the death of a young activist.

What are you doing for Mother Earth?
These days, lunch time discussions and dinner conversations are often centred around politics, entertainment, music, the economy, security issues or how to make extra income in these challenging times. However, in the wake of this year's International Earth Day, our attention is shifting to how humanity can save the only planet that sustains life in the universe. Today, there are growing concerns about the population explosion, biodiversity loss, the pollution of the ecosystems, the depleting quality of the environment, the effects of climate change, global warming and the effects of extreme weather conditions.

Breaking The Bias
The world finds itself at an inflection point as bias continues to affect how people are perceived and treated thus impeding the attainment of equity, diversity, inclusion, social justice and a sense of belonging. Whether those biases are conscious or unconscious, they often lead to unfair treatment, depriving millions of access to resources, opportunities, freedom and sources of livelihood to name a few. Some of these biases, primarily developed at childhood, are borne out of cultural and religious beliefs, making it necessary for everyone to learn, relearn and unlearn thus changing their mindsets for a better global society.

Rethinking Self-Care
It has been an amazing month of March for women around the world. In the wake of this year's Mother's Day, there is no better time than now to Rethink Self-Care particularly for women, who Dr. Ama describes as, “the bedrock of society.” Amidst present day stressors and triggers from the pandemic, the economy, security and political instability, the desire for happiness, well-being and fulfilment are taking precedence. Tapping into the core of self-care requires not just feeding your body but also nourishing your soul to enhance the quality of your existence.

Building Confidence and Competence in Women.
As the world continues to spotlight gender parity and breaking the bias in the course of this year's International Women's Month, it is important to note the significance of improving confidence in women which begins with the girl child. Often limited by society's template of what it means to be a woman, patriarchal thinking deprives many girls and women of the opportunities to develop self confidence and competence, and cultural-religious idealogy hinders their personal fulfilment.

Every year on the 8th of March, International Women’s Day has been marked across the world since 1911.
