  When the Taliban Banned Girls From School, SOLA Kept Teaching 19.08.2026 42хв

  Five years ago, the Taliban banned girls from the classroom. One school refused to stop teaching. In August 2021, as the Taliban returned to power in Afghanistan, the staff and students of SOLA, the country’s first and only boarding school for Afghan girls, managed to escape to Rwanda, where they established a temporary campus to continue classes.   Meet Shabana Basij-Rasikh, co-founder of SOLA, and our very first guest on this podcast when we launched in 2023. Five years since the Taliban takeover, Shabana returns to reflect on what has happened since: from Afghan women running secret schools and girls rationing internet data to keep learning to what has become of SOLA’s first cohort and what it means to create a place where Afghan girls have the freedom to simply be  “girls who go to school.” In this episode:Why Afghan women are continuing a generations-long tradition of secret schoolsHow the internet has become a lifeline for girls and women inside AfghanistanWhat happened to the first cohort of SOLA girls How SOLA built a permanent new home for Afghan girls in RwandaThe importance of giving girls the safety to be normal teenagersWhat five years of exile, education and resistance can teach us Why Shabana’s message to the world is simple: “Don’t look away.”Help keep the doors open for Afghan girls:👉 Learn more about SOLA👉 Donate to SOLA👉 Explore SOLAxTimestamps:00:54 Introducing the School of Leadership Afghanistan (SOLA)03:10 What hope means to Shabana Basij-Rasikh05:07 The legacy of Afghan women and eduction08:43 Why the internet is a lifeline for Afghan women and girls13:10 SOLAx - the online school18:04 An update on the students of SOLA21:45 Midpoint Reflections23:17 SOLA has finished construction on a permanent campus in Rwanda27:43 The power of partnerships29:50 The relationship between SOLA and Rwanda32:18 What the students of SOLA have taught Shabana35:40 How the story of SOLA expands what's possible38:31 Final ThoughtsAbout Fix The News:Fix The News is a solutions-focused media platform sharing stories from the frontlines of progress - exploring what’s working in the world and the people making it happen.Subscribe & follow:If you enjoyed this episode, follow the podcast and leave a review - it helps more people find these stories.Production credits:Hosted by Angus Hervey and Amy Davoren-RoseProduced by Fix The NewsAudio production: Anthony Badolato, Hear That! This episode was produced in Australia on the lands of the Gadigal, Wurundjeri and Woi Wurrung peoples.

  The Future of Farming: Healthy Soil, AI and Food Security 05.08.2026 47хв

  The story of farming has always been one of adaptation. The next chapter may be its most one important yet.In this special episode of Fix The News, we bring together two conversations exploring one of the defining questions of our time: how do we feed a growing world without destroying the planet that we depend on?Meet Professor Rattan Lal, one of the world's leading soil scientists and a World Food Prize laureate, whose life's work has transformed our understanding of the living world beneath our feet. Then meet Alesha Miller, Chief Strategy Officer at Digital Green, who's helping smallholder farmers across Africa and Asia combine generations of local knowledge with artificial intelligence to build more resilient food systems.Together, they help us unpack that that the future of agriculture isn't about choosing between nature and technology, tradition and innovation, or human and artificial intelligence. It's about strengthening both.  In this episode:Why healthy soil is the foundation of healthy food systemsHow our lifestyle choices today will help shape the futureThe importance of the world's 500 million smallholder farmersHow AI can amplify rather than replace human knowledgeWhy trust matters as much as technologyWhy the future of farming may depend on combining old wisdom with new ideasTimestamps:00:13 The most common occupation on earth03:45 Meet Professor Rattan Lal04:54 Why soil is a living entity08:37 What does Regenerative Agriculture actually mean?12:05 The Law of Return20:53 Midpoint Reflections22:47 Meet Alesha Miller25:47 What is Digital Green?30:14 Can weather predictions save AI?37:21 Technology and Trust43:04 Closing Reflections: Choose BothDig Deeper:👉Professor Rattan Lal 👉 Digital GreenAbout Fix The News:Fix The News is a solutions-focused media platform sharing stories from the frontlines of progress - exploring what’s working in the world and the people making it happen.Subscribe & follow:If you enjoyed this episode, follow the podcast and leave a review - it helps more people find these stories.Production credits:Hosted by Angus Hervey and Amy Davoren-RoseProduced by Fix The NewsAudio production: Anthony Badolato, Hear That! This episode was produced in Australia on the lands of the Gadigal, Wurundjeri and Woi Wurrung peoples.

  The Teen Sisters Rebuilding Gaza: Earth Prize Winners Tala & Farah Mousa 22.07.2026 24хв

  Since October 2023, much of the world's attention has been focused on the destruction in Gaza. This conversation is about something we hear much less about: rebuilding.Meet Tala and Farah Mousa, two teenage sisters from Gaza and winners of The Earth Prize Middle East, one of the world's leading environmental competitions for teenagers. Their project, Build Hope is recycling the enormous volumes of rubble left behind by destroyed buildings and transforming it into reusable bricks to help rebuild their communities. The idea began with a Year 9 textbook in Tala's school bag. Today, it has the potential to give communities beyond Gaza, the tools to rebuild using what's already around them. It's an idea that has the potential to reduce waste, lower rebuilding costs and support reconstruction in disaster and war zones around the world.

  Colombia Ended a 60-Year War: Lessons in Making Peace 10.06.2026 43хв

  What can Colombia teach us about what's still possible?Meet Juan Manuel Santos - former President of Colombia, Nobel Peace Prize laureate and Chair of The Elders - who helped negotiate an end to one of the longest-running armed conflicts in modern history. Under his leadership, Colombia signed a peace agreement with FARC, bringing an end to a conflict that had shaped the country for over 60 years. But this conversation isn't just about ending a war. We also explore Colombia's environmental leadership - from Indigenous wisdom in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta to the idea that there can be no lasting peace among people without peace with nature. Along the way, President Santos explains how Colombia helped inspire the Sustainable Development Goals, why cooperation remains humanity's greatest challenge, and what lessons the world can learn from a country that many once considered beyond repair. In this episode:How post-apartheid South Africa helped shape his vision for peace   Why peace is often unpopular - and why he pursued it anywayThe difference between making peace and building itHow victims became central to Colombia's peace processThe role of Colombia in creating the Sustainable Development GoalsWhy making peace with nature is essential to creating a better futureTimestamps:00:44 Amy & Gus: Why Doesn't South America Make the Headlines? 02:22 A Leadership Lesson from the Colombian Navy 04:45 Inside The Elders 05:14 The Four Existential Threats Facing Humanity 07:59 Making Peace with the Western Hemisphere's Longest-Running Guerrilla Movement 09:59 How Nelson Mandela Made Peace Seem Possible 12:25 Why Peace Is Often Unpopular 15:12 The Difference Between Making Peace and Building It 19:07 Why Victims Were Central to Colombia's Peace Process 22:11 Pastora Mira and the Extraordinary Power of Forgiveness 24:51 Is Peace Good for Nature? 26:41 The Colombian Idea That Became the SDGs 29:49 The Santa Marta Mandate: Bringing Humanity Back to Nature 32:25 Legacy, Elections and the Durability of Progress 35:52 Why We Need to Learn from Young People 37:48 What Is Still Possible? 40:16 The Dream President Santos Still Wants to Fulfil 41:00 Amy & Gus: Final ReflectionsGo Deeper:👉 The Elders👉 Juan Manuel Santos👉 The Open Library of the Colombian Peace ProcessAbout Fix The News:Fix The News is a solutions-focused media platform sharing stories from the frontlines of progress - exploring what’s working in the world and the people making it happen.Subscribe & follow:If you enjoyed this episode, follow the podcast and leave a review - it helps more people find these stories.Production credits:Hosted by Angus Hervey and Amy Davoren-RoseProduced by Fix The NewsAudio production: Anthony Badolato, Hear That! This episode was produced in Australia on the lands of the Gadigal, Wurundjeri and Woi Wurrung peoples.

  The Largest Dam Removal in U.S. History: What Repair Really Looks Like 27.05.2026 43хв

  The battle to restore the Klamath River lasted generations. When the dams finally came down, salmon returned within three days - far faster than scientists expected, marking a turning point for Indigenous rights, ecological restoration and cultural survival. Meet Amy Bowers Cordalis - attorney, activist and member of the Yurok Tribe - who helped lead one of the most significant river restoration efforts in modern history. Amy shares the story behind America’s largest dam removal project: from growing up alongside the Klamath River and witnessing the devastating 2002 salmon die-off, to becoming the first General Counsel for the Yurok Tribe and helping navigate a long fight against political, legal and corporate interests that many believed was impossible to win. This isn’t just a conversation about dams or conservation. It’s about what comes after victory - and what repair truly means for ecosystems, communities, culture and our collective future.In this episode:How Amy blew up a dam on her birthdayWhy salmon returned to the Klamath River in just three daysThe cultural and spiritual connection between the Yurok people, the river and salmonWhat the 2002 mass death of 70,000 salmon meant for Indigenous communitiesHow grief and anger led Amy to law school and environmental advocacyWarren Buffett - and why his team ended up on the banks of the Klamath RiverThe surprising economics of dam removal and river restorationFinding the joy in advocacyWhat the Klamath story teaches us about hope, persistence and ability of nature and communities to healTimestamps:00:54 - Introduction to the Klamath River story02:26 - Meet Amy Bowers Cordalis03:59 - The Yurok's relationship with the Klamath and the salmon07:05 - The turning point in 2002 10:59 - How Amy's great-grandmother told her to take action12:53 -  80,000 salmon died, no media showed up 13:38 - What a decades-long battle felt like on the inside?15:13 -  When Warren Buffet's team came out to the Klamath19:02 -  Midpoint reflections20:43 - How the Klamath restoration changes the story of environmental activism22:55 - Why restoration and economics can go hand in hand23:49 - What it's like to blow up a dam, on your birthday25:04 - How the elders have responded to the Klamath flowing again27:32 - How salon beat scientific predication and returned after three days29:23 - The myth of the lone hero32:11 - Other river restoration projects happening in America34:26 - What comes after victory?

  Global Hunger: The Australian Farmers Taking Action 15.04.2026 35хв

  What happens when two friends in rural Australia take on the global hunger crisis? Meet Rob Houghton and Ken Dachi - a third-generation farmer and a multicultural advisor from Leeton, NSW - who turned a single conversation into Grain of Hope: a grassroots initiative shipping Australian wheat to Sudan, where millions face displacement and acute malnutrition.(We’ve linked ways to support their work below.)Rob & Ken share the reality of delivering 100 tonnes of grain into a crisis zone - from complex logistics and rising fuel costs to working outside traditional aid systems.
