The UK government has introduced new laws to criminalize the creation and sharing of sexually explicit deepfakes, addressing growing concerns over AI misuse. Deepfakes, hyper realistic digital manipulations of photos or videos, are increasingly used to exploit and harm individuals, especially women. Last year, a deepfake of Taylor Swift endorsing Donald Trump’s campaign highlighted how convincing and widespread these manipulations have become. With advancing technology blurring the line between real and fake, victims often struggle to hold offenders accountable. The new legislation targets both the production and distribution of non-consensual intimate images, with offenders facing up to two years in prison. Minister for Victims and Violence Against Women, Alex Davies-Jones, stressed the urgency of tackling online abuse, citing that one in three women has faced such harassment. This UK initiative aligns with global efforts, including the EU’s recent measures to combat AI-driven cyber violence.

×Erin spoke with Carrie Cannon, a member of the Union of Independents, about the organisation’s progress as it celebrates its first anniversary. Representing over 1,700 independent workers in Luxembourg, the union was founded to advocate for freelancers, entrepreneurs, and self-employed professionals who lack the protections and rights of traditional employees. Carrie highlighted a key issue facing independents: CSS contributions, which are calculated on total income—including VAT and expenses—making payments disproportionately high. The union is actively working to negotiate fairer terms with the government. Founded by Clara Moraru out of necessity, the Union of Independents is Luxembourg’s first dedicated trade union for freelancers. While the country has a strong history of union representation, independents have largely been left without a collective voice until now. Carrie shared her personal experience as a health coach, noting that while freelancing offers flexibility, it comes with challenges like long hours, administrative burdens, and financial instability, particularly during illness. She emphasised that despite their diverse fields, freelancers face common struggles, from taxation issues to securing business bank accounts. The union’s next major goal is increasing membership.They aim to rally more of Luxembourg’s 40,000 independent workers to strengthen their collective voice. Membership fees are structured based on income, making it accessible to those in different financial situations.…

Dr. Leandro Guimarães, a pediatric surgeon in Brazil, is turning surgery into a fun, empowering experience for children. Instead of fear, his young patients enter the operating room feeling like superheroes. Before surgery, he lets them choose costumes—Batman, The Flash, or others—encouraging them to “fly” or run into the OR with confidence. If a child is still anxious, he allows a parent to accompany them. His goal? No child enters surgery in tears. Once under anesthesia, the costume is given to the parents. His past experience as a hospital clown taught him that playfulness eases fear, and parents feel reassured seeing their children happy. Many kids proudly wear their costumes at follow-up visits, associating the hospital with a positive experience. Some even ask for another surgery! For Dr. Guimarães, knowing he turns a scary moment into a joyful memory makes his work deeply rewarding.…
In the US-state of New York, the juvenile crime rate dropped by 86% following the closure of doyens of youth prisons. Fostering alternative sentences such as community service, the system lowers the chances of reoffending.

This year, Niger, Georgia, and Guinea have achieved major public health milestones, eliminating river blindness, malaria, and sleeping sickness, respectively. Niger: First in Africa to Eliminate River Blindness River blindness, caused by a parasitic worm and spread by black flies, once affected millions. Symptoms include blindness and severe itching. Niger’s success stems from a dedicated elimination program, including regular treatment of black fly breeding sites with rotating larvicides to prevent resistance. Georgia: Malaria-Free After Decades of Struggle Once a widespread threat, malaria plagued 30% of Georgia’s population in the 1920s. Despite near-elimination in the 1950s, the disease resurged. In 2005, Georgia renewed its commitment through the Tashkent Declaration. With sustained investment, early detection, and effective treatment, Georgia has now become the 46th country to eliminate malaria, bringing Europe closer to becoming the world’s first malaria-free region. Guinea: Eliminating Sleeping Sickness Sleeping sickness, caused by tsetse fly bites, leads to neurological symptoms if untreated. Guinea’s Ministry of Health, alongside WHO and other partners, launched a national program in the 1990s, focusing on mass screenings and treatment. In 2012, vector control interventions further reduced transmission. After years of effort, Guinea now joins 15 other African nations in eradicating the disease. WHO certifies malaria elimination when a country proves three consecutive years without local transmission—a testament to these nations' dedication to public health.…

16:46In this episode of The PwC People Pulse on City Radio, we dive into the dynamics of intergenerational workplaces. Mary, a seasoned media relations expert, and Anastasia, a passionate advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion, discuss the challenges and benefits of working across generations. With four generations now coexisting in the workplace, collaboration styles, communication methods, and expectations can vary widely. Mary shares her experience as one of the older team members in marketing and communications, embracing the energy and innovation of younger colleagues while offering wisdom and stability. Anastasia highlights the importance of fostering inclusive work environments that accommodate different perspectives, working styles, and technological proficiencies. A highlight of the discussion is Mary’s unexpected TikTok fame, where she humorously navigates Gen Z slang. This moment underscores the importance of adapting to new platforms and trends to maintain authentic engagement with younger audiences. The conversation also tackles common stereotypes—such as assumptions about work ethic and flexibility—and emphasises the need to move beyond generational labels. While differences in communication styles and workplace expectations exist, both guests agree that embracing these differences leads to stronger, more dynamic teams. Ultimately, each generation has something valuable to offer. By keeping an open mind, being willing to learn, and fostering mutual respect, workplaces can thrive with a diverse mix of ages and experiences.…

Taranaki Mountain, the second-highest peak on New Zealand’s North Island, has been granted legal personhood, giving it the same rights and protections as an individual. This designation, deeply rooted in Māori beliefs, ensures that the mountain and its surrounding peaks are treated with respect, shifting the way natural features are viewed in law. Visitors will be encouraged to self-regulate their activities, learning to honor Taranaki as an ancestor. Geographically, Taranaki Mounga is one of the world’s most symmetrical volcanic cones, towering over the Taranaki plains. It is also believed to be the country’s most climbed mountain and a major tourist attraction. Culturally, this decision finalizes a 2016 settlement addressing the Crown’s Treaty of Waitangi breaches, which included financial reparations and an apology for the 19th-century Taranaki wars. Taranaki now joins Te Urewera (2014) and the Whanganui River (2017) as New Zealand’s third natural entity with legal personhood.…
India has successfully doubled its tiger population in just over a decade, rising from about 1,706 in 2010 to around 3,682 in 2022, according to a recent study. This impressive growth is a result of effective conservation measures, such as anti-poaching efforts, protecting habitats, ensuring adequate prey, and reducing human-wildlife conflict. Key legislation like the Wildlife Protection Act (1972) and the Forest Conservation Act (1980) have been instrumental. The Wildlife Protection Act created national parks and sanctuaries while regulating hunting and poaching, while the Forest Conservation Act helped limit deforestation and promote sustainable forest management, which is vital for wildlife habitats. The study highlights that successful conservation can benefit both biodiversity and local communities. It’s not just about human population density—attitudes toward conservation play a critical role. Science-based planning, strong protection laws, and ecotourism can support both tiger populations and local economies. Experts have praised the findings but also called for broader access to data for further research. They stress the importance of expanding conservation efforts to other endangered species, such as the great Indian bustard and caracal, to ensure ecosystem health across the board.…

Starting this summer, Nice will ban cruise ships carrying over 900 passengers from docking. Mayor Christian Estrosi, inspired by Venice’s similar move, aims to reduce overcrowding and protect the local environment. While cruise ships bring thousands of tourists, many spend little in local businesses due to all-inclusive packages. The Cruise Lines International Association opposes the ban, arguing it unfairly targets the industry and overlooks its economic contributions. Critics fear negative impacts on local shops and restaurants, while environmentalists support the decision, citing pollution, biodiversity loss, and excessive tourism. Large ships may still dock in nearby ports like Marseille or Toulon, or anchor offshore and ferry passengers to land—a tactic used in other restricted areas. However, no official alternatives have been confirmed. Meanwhile, smaller cruise ships will still be allowed to dock in Nice.…
A major shift in the UK’s work culture is underway—200 companies have now embraced the four-day workweek with no reduction in pay, positively impacting over 5,000 employees. This movement, led by the 4 Day Week Foundation, is gaining traction in industries such as marketing, charities, and technology, where flexibility and innovation are highly valued. Advocates argue that the traditional five-day workweek is outdated, and mounting evidence supports the idea that a shorter week leads to improved work-life balance, well-being, and even productivity. The largest global study on the four-day workweek, conducted in the UK in 2022, confirmed these benefits. Out of the 61 companies that participated, 56 chose to continue the policy, and 18 made it a permanent change. Employees reported lower stress levels, reduced burnout, and fewer sick days, while businesses saw improved retention, lower hiring costs, and in some cases, enhanced efficiency. However, not all industries have found the transition seamless. Sectors requiring constant coverage, such as call centers, have faced challenges in adapting to the new model. Yet, the enthusiasm among younger workers suggests that expectations around work are changing—many believe a four-day workweek could become the norm within the next five years. Despite its success, the UK government has not formally endorsed the policy at a national level. While the Labour Party has expressed interest in the idea, wider political and economic backing is needed to implement such a shift across the country. Critics worry about potential economic impacts and productivity concerns, but with consistent positive results,changing minds may be a matter of time.…
