The COVID-19 pandemic has raised concerns about the mental health of a generation of children. But the pandemic may represent the tip of a mental health iceberg – an iceberg we have ignored for far too long. The State of the World’s Children 2021 examines child, adolescent, and caregiver mental health. It focuses on risks and protective factors at critical moments in the life course and delves into the social determinants that shape mental health and well-being. It calls for commitment, communication, and action as part of a comprehensive approach to promote good mental health for every child, protect vulnerable children and care for children facing the greatest challenges. *************** This Podcast aims to serve as a platform to promote culture, education, economics, peace, and conflict resolution.

Tatiana Androsov was born in a mining town in Belgium in the 1950s to parents who had fled the Soviet Union during World War II and who subsequently emigrated to America. She climbed out of Passaic, New Jersey, the daughter of immigrant factory workers, to the hallowed grounds of Mount Holyoke College and the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. A child locked in all summer without anything but a typewriter, she blossomed. Understanding the true meaning of being thankful for a half-filled glass, she wound up the president of the Thanks-Giving Foundation. Tatiana has lived life at both ends of the spectrum. Throughout this journey, her main preoccupation has been the welfare of her fellow human beings and the planet we all share. Going as far back as the “Letters to the World” that she wrote when she was twelve to the novels she created while a student, later as UN interpreter, UNDP and FAO staff member and C consultant in Rome and at NYHQs, and even during challenging missions abroad Tatiana kept writing. Now ‘retired’, she has published some of her work, including 1) Before they Cut the Ivy on an elite women’s college just before the Ivy League opened its doors to women; 2) Mangoes and Blood on an unusual international hostage situation; 3) Choices on an American woman working for the United Nations in Africa; and 4) A Question of Seduction Vol 1 Eros Vol 2 Agape on an international, intercultural, interfaith relationship set against inequalities in position, past traumas and changing world situation Having witnessed countless warnings about the future going unheeded and having seen what can be done when people come together, Tatiana looks for the opportunities available to us. For her, many of these opportunities are to be found within the United Nations System. Though an imperfect system with an unusual mix of people, a motley crew, one which is not well understood, Tatiana is convinced that it deserves much greater support than it has had in its first seventy-five years. ********************* This Podcast aims to serve as a platform to promote culture, education, economics, peace and conflict resolution.

" Citizenship in Hard Times " ....... it is a book by Sara Goodman, PhD Sara is an associate Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), where she is also co-Director of the Jack W. Peltason Center for the Study of Democracy (CSD). Her research examines democratic inclusion and the shaping of political identity through citizenship and immigrant integration. She is the author of Immigration and Membership Politics in Western Europe (Cambridge University Press). Her research is also published in Journal of Politics, World Politics, and Comparative Political Studies. What do citizens do in times of democratic crisis? When democracy is under threat, do everyday citizens activate and mobilize, or do they hunker down, demobilize, and express greater support for homogeneity (like speaking English)? Scholars, pundits and policy experts have largely focused on elite behavior and institutional guardrails, but the citizenry is a foundation to any story about democracy under threat. This book is the first to examine civic obligation in unsettled democratic times from the perspective of citizens themselves. It employs a three-country study of the US, UK, and Germany, to examine how democratic citizens define obligation and for whom, comparing native-born and naturalized citizens. Findings highlight the importance of how democratic problems are framed, and puts forward a number of policy prescriptions for overhauling civic education.
