Hankens biträdande professor Maria Ehrnström-Fuentes säger i en intervju till Yle att det inte är en miljögärning att köpa begagnat, och det löser inte klimatkrisen. "Att vi kan sälja secondhand visar på att vi har ett överutbud av varor som vi har köpt." Läs mer 👇 yle.fi/a/7-10088717

My full statement on the Gaza Famine :

Mourning 100s of humanitarians killed this year. This is more than a statistical spike - it is normalization of violence against our community. Each attack is an attack on all of us. Enough. #WorldHumanitarianDay

The Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council has granted national co-financing of €103,092 to Hanken’s Time2Scale project, which focuses on startup companies. Project Manager Thommie Burström extends a warm thank you to the council. Read more about the project below 👇 www.hanken.fi/en/news/hank...

Malnutrition is on a dangerous trajectory in the #Gaza Strip, marked by a spike in deaths in July. The crisis remains entirely preventable. Deliberate blocking and delay of large-scale food, health, and humanitarian aid has cost many lives. Statement from WHO. www.who.int/news/item/27...

Peer review & journals are under attack because the administration—w/ assists from bitter academics & financially conflicted tech bros—does not want to meet expert standards as it obliterates American science in favor of its own fascist propaganda. This thoughtful thread gets to the heart of it 👇🏻

Kun ajattelee ettei asiat voi pahentua, tahallinen nälänhätä annetaan tapahtua. Apua on rajan takaa, sitä Israel ei salli. MSF:n työntekijä sanoo osuvasti ettei ihmisiä tapettu aikasemmin kun apua antoi humanitaariset toimijat @uusijuttu.fi www.uusijuttu.fi/juttu/sKmKEc...

The humanitarian reset has led to quite some changes in humanitarian operations, disaster management, emergency management, and ultimately, our resilience already. Academics in these areas, we have a job for you in Helsinki, Finland: hanken.rekrytointi.com/paikat/index... #adademicsky

A nationwide survey of Kenyan attitudes to refugee integration offers lessons for other countries grappling with protracted refugee situations and declining aid. ⬇️

Erittäin tarpeellinen kirjoitus, jossa opetusministeri paaluttaa tutkimuksen vapauden ja monimuotoisuuden arvon sekä periaatteet. ”Suomen Akatemian rahoituspäätökset eivät ole poliittisia valintoja tai mielipidekysymyksiä.”

Yhdysvalloissa ajetaan tiedettä alas ja seuraukset näkyvät kaikkialla. Valta-asema siirtyy Kiinalle, kyllä, mutta kyse ei ole vain suurvaltojen kisasta. Koko maailman tutkimusyhteistyö kärsii ja tieteen kehitys hidastuu. Tämä on myös Suomen ongelma. Tiede ei tunne rajoja.

How can we ensure that society continues to function during crises in the future? This is the central question of a new research project in which Hanken School of Economics is participating, together with @vtt.fi. #HankenResearch www.hanken.fi/en/news/new-...

Tämä ei ole humanitaarista apua. Apua ei anneta aseiden turvin, eikä pakoteta ihmisiä hakemaan sitä henkensä uhalla. Tämän loputtava ja annettava puolueettomien toimijoiden tehdä työnsä, humanitaaristen periaatteiden mukaisesti www.hs.fi/maailma/art-...

Always look at the ports

Guess what? #VaccinesWork. They protect us against more than 30 deadly diseases. Choose science, choose health. #HumanlyPossible

I started my humanitarian career on a 2006 DARPA project that asked: what if we had an earthquake during a pandemic? We now have a perma-epidemic with measles (R=16+). Every disaster will now be a complex operation.

Wahllogistik, ein Grundpfeiler der Demokratie

All 25 supported bakeries in Gaza have now shut down. As the blockade on Gaza continues for over a month, people face growing risks of severe hunger, malnutrition, and lack of adequate health care. Urgent humanitarian access is critical to resume lifesaving services #ceasefire

🚨 Aid operations in #Gaza are on the brink of collapse. The consequences are already deadly. We call on world leaders to press for: ❗️Lifting the blockade ❗️A renewed ceasefire ❗️Letting aid organizations operate in line with humanitarian principles #ActForHumanity

Science also needs supply chains

Since 2 March, the World Food Programme couldn’t transport any food into #Gaza after Israel closed all border crossings for humanitarian & commercial supplies. UN agencies are appealing to resume aid delivery for families whose lives entirely depend on it.

This is not a drill. Many will die because of aid cuts.   The pace and the scale of the funding cuts are a seismic shock to the humanitarian sector. But we will not retreat from our mission. Grateful for opportunity to brief UN press corps.

Ongoing violence and rising crime in eastern #DRCongo are devastating communities and hampering humanitarian efforts.   Civilians are suffering horrific attacks.   🔴 Safe, unimpeded humanitarian access and sustained funding are critical to reaching people in need.

Sustainable humanitarian aid is still in focus. This is a short summary of what we do in the WORM project. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITCJ...

former finland pm sanna marin in new op ed: “it is entirely reasonable for american taxpayers to question why they should shoulder more of the cost of european security than europe itself. given the clear message...it is simply unrealistic not to strengthen europe’s own defense capabilities.”

We can’t afford to waste food and fibre. Last night the European Parliament and the Council agreed to: 🍎Cut food waste by 10% in processing & manufacturing and 30% per person in retail & consumption 👖Charge producers for textile waste and short durability to fund recycling More→ europa.eu/!34Tt76

URGENT: Hundreds of thousands are without shelter in eastern DR Congo as violence escalates. UNHCR is calling for immediate support to prevent further suffering. 🧵
