In this episode, Jaime shares how his passion for photography and conservation led him to document the monarchs’ journey. He and host Brian Lowery discuss the deeper story behind his award-winning images, one about resilience, connection, and the urgent need to protect our natural world.

The wonders of the natural world are threatened like never before. The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) is the overarching global legal instrument for biodiversity. We sit on the brink of the possible realisation of a significant shift in the operation of the Convention. From 11-15 October 2021, during Part One of the CBD's 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15), countries from around the world will come together virtually to negotiate the proposed Global Biodiversity Framework. In this episode Professor Anthony Burke and Macquarie University Senior Lecturer Michelle Lim explore the past, present and future of the Convention and the projected conclusion of the Global Biodiversity Framework. Can COP15 move the CBD from an instrument of aspiration to one of action? Can the Convention draw from the lessons of its past to shape a global governance landscape that enables the future we want for humans and nature?

Warfare will increasingly be urban and occur amongst populations, Dr Christina Spittel and Dr Charles Knight discuss in this episode. The trends towards both greater humanitarian suffering and military difficulty are undeniable. These factors will make urban conflict a theatre of competing narratives as much as competing armies. The evidence is that armies that are unprepared risk their reputations and strategic failure. This research identifies particular challenges, evidence of vexed ADF-media relationships, and makes practical recommendations.…
