Hello, this is Kasmira. As US president Donald Trump continues to rewire his country's education system, with states notified just this week of some $6bn in funds for education grants being withheld, the UN expert on the right to education calls out increasing political interference.
Also at the Human Rights Council, a report details dozens of firms that it alleges are supporting Israeli settlements. And in an opinion piece, the boss of UNAids argues for more permanent solutions for fixing a fractured developing finance system. |
