Consider This: Humanitarian Crises — Negotiating Aid
2024 has been a year of unrelenting humanitarian crises—conflict and violence inflicted on so many, the climate crisis displacing millions, and all of it, ultimately, caused by human actions.

Consider This: EPF for Migrant Workers (Part 1) — Ensuring A Fair Share For All
To mark International Migrants Day on the 18th of December, today we reflect on the millions of workers who have left their homes and families to cross borders in search of better opportunities.
