Kuvaus

A mixture of work and education, internships have really come a long way since their inception in the late 1960s. Companies look towards them in expectations of saving some money, and students look forward to gaining "experience". But is there a hindsight to all this? Can our economies actually bear the burden which comes along with internships? Are the internships causing you harm without your knowledge? Well, the answer is quite simple and one which really gets me going.

The Humble Podcast: EP3 - Has the United Nations upheld its objectives?

In the 21st-century, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and a rising protectionist wave across the global economies, can the UN be trusted to bring order and peace? Has the organisation we once regarded as the torch-bearer for a united future gone dark? This is a crucial moment to be asking such question, for it may define the way we perceive our future as a society. Is the UN needed after all we've seen? Yes, it is. But what it desperately needs is reforms, a lot of them. We need to stop the monopoly of big spender in the organisation so that the brutally suffering under-developed and developing nations get their fair share of justice.  With the 75th Anniversary of the signing of the UN Charter on 26th-June this year,  such questions need to be asked and changes need to be demanded. We've borrowed this earth from our future generations, it is our responsibility to keep it safe, secure and stable.  Don't step away from responsibility.
