Mickey J: an Australian always, quietly, making a big difference At a time of diminished political leadership, the legacy of Fred Hollows and Michael Johnson shows what practical, principled internationalism can achieve.

Australia’s political leadership is falling short at home and abroad.
The work of Fred Hollows and Michael Johnson shows what real leadership looks like, Jack Waterford writes.

Does the US Spend Too Much on Foreign Aid? | US Immigration Since 2016 #SOC119 #Immigration #Aid YouTube video by SOC 119

What's fascinating to me is how much my brain wants to categorize the speakers as either left-wing or right-wing, and how it feels impossible to do that, and how that's both frustrating and refreshing at the same time.

African Digital Health Data Is a Condition of Global Health Funding - ICTworks 26 global health MOUs represent five-year plans outlining the USA engagement in African country health systems that trade investment for data

And whenever you think you have seen it all ... Now, developing countries have to sign away decades of health data to gain access to the crumbs left after the dismantling of USAID. The US government has gone from humanitarian aid to an AI data broker.

A reminder that Carney cut Canada's foreign aid budget by $2.7 Billion, which, added to the US cuts, will ensure many thousands more die.

China and the US alter foreign aid strategies China's foreign aid strategy has shifted in the last few decades and now its model may be the one the US is adopting as China moves away from it.

📺 Didn't expect this development: China & the US are reshaping foreign aid, moving from traditional aid to strategic partnerships and tech‑focused support. What impact will this have? 🌍 #ForeignAid #ChinaUS #Innovation
