Play Video: Geothermal Energy: Dominica's Clean Power Journey - Trailer | The Lid Is On | United Nations

There's a growing consensus that the world must transition away from environmentally harmful fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and gas, which contribute to pollution and exacerbate the climate crisis. While these resources have historically fueled economic growth and generated revenue for nations with abundant reserves, the imperative to reduce emissions requires exploring alternative energy sources. One promising solution emerges from the small island nation of Dominica, where geothermal energy offers a sustainable path forward. Studies indicate that Dominica could meet its entire electricity demand and even export surplus energy by harnessing geothermal power—an abundant, clean, and cost-effective resource lying beneath its surface. Conor Lennon from UN News interviews Vince Henderson, Dominica’s Minister for Economic Development and Sustainable Energy, and Fred John, CEO of the Dominica Geothermal Development Company, to assess the country's progress toward achieving a renewable energy future.

Play Video: Antigua and Barbuda Conference: Small Islands Advance on Sustainable Development | United Nations

Small Island Developing States (SIDS) face major challenges—climate change, geographic remoteness, a narrow export base—that make them vulnerable to external economic, environmental, and social shocks. But they also have innovative solutions, dynamic populations, and people ready to act. Despite their challenges, SIDS have been moving forward with their sustainable development guided by the commitments of previous programmes of action, the SAMOA Pathway, and the Sustainable Development Goals. Now it’s time for these islands to take the global spotlight and inspire a revitalized jolt of investment and commitment. The upcoming Fourth International Conference on SIDS (SIDS4), taking place in Antigua and Barbuda from 27 to 30 May, will bring together world leaders from SIDS and partner countries to tackle these pressing issues. “Small Island Developing States represent a small percentage of the world’s population, but their fate has consequences for all of us,” said Li Junhua, the head of UN DESA who will serve as the Secretary-General of the SIDS4 Conference. The 39 SIDS are small in size but big in ambition. The major outcome of the conference will be an intergovernmentally agreed outcome document: The Antigua and Barbuda Agenda for SIDS (ABAS)—a Renewed Declaration for Resilient Prosperity. This document will set out the sustainable development aspirations of small islands for the next 10 years and the support required from the international community to achieve them. Their priorities include building resilient economies; fostering safe, healthy and prosperous societies; achieving water, food and energy security; conserving biodiversity; protecting and sustainably using the ocean and its resources; and halting and urgently mitigating the adverse impacts of climate change. To help SIDS meet these ambitions, the ABAS declaration will contain commitments to facilitate access to affordable and concessional finance, increase effectiveness of development finance, as well as scale-up biodiversity finance and climate action and support, including climate finance, in line with existing obligations and commitments. In addition to eight plenary meetings, there will be five interactive dialogues, and five high-level special events focused on children and youth, gender equality, business networks, the private sector, and civil society. All of these events aim to underscore the importance of small island countries and their people and set them on a path toward sustainable development. SIDS countries provide the world with culture, innovations, natural resources and Indigenous knowledge that play a critical role in the health of our shared society. Ensuring their resilient prosperity benefits us all. The SIDS4 Conference, Mr. Li said, “is a pivotal moment for small islands and the whole world.”

Play Video: World Press Freedom Day (3 May) - UN Chief's Message | United Nations

UN Secretary-General António Guterres delivered a video message on World Press Freedom Day (3 May). ----------------------- Origins of World Press Freedom Day: World Press Freedom Day was proclaimed by the UN General Assembly in December 1993, following the recommendation of UNESCO's General Conference. Since then, May 3, the anniversary of the Declaration of Windhoek, has been celebrated worldwide as World Press Freedom Day. After 30 years, the historic connection between the freedom to seek, impart, and receive information and the public good remains as relevant as it was at the time of its signing. Special commemorations of the 30th anniversary are planned to take place during the World Press Freedom Day International Conference. May 3 serves as a reminder to governments of their need to respect their commitment to press freedom. It is also a day of reflection among media professionals about issues of press freedom and professional ethics. It is an opportunity to: Celebrate the fundamental principles of press freedom; Assess the state of press freedom throughout the world; Defend the media from attacks on their independence; And pay tribute to journalists who have lost their lives in the line of duty. ----------------------- Focus of This Year's World Press Freedom Day: In 2024, World Press Freedom Day is dedicated to the importance of journalism and freedom of expression in the context of the current global environmental crisis. Awareness of all aspects of the global environmental crisis and its consequences is essential to build democratic societies. Journalistic work is indispensable for this purpose. Journalists encounter significant challenges in seeking and disseminating information on contemporary issues, such as supply chain problems, climate migration, extractive industries, illegal mining, pollution, poaching, animal trafficking, deforestation, and climate change. Ensuring the visibility of these issues is crucial for promoting peace and democratic values worldwide.

You’ve got the #GlobalGoals in your hand. Join the global movement towards a more sustainable and equitable future by sharing this video. ------------------------ Progress towards quality education was already slower than required before the pandemic, but COVID-19 has had devastating impacts on education, causing learning losses in four out of five of the 104 countries studied. Without additional measures, an estimated 84 million children and young people will stay out of school by 2030 and approximately 300 million students will lack the basic numeracy and literacy skills necessary for success in life. In addition to free primary and secondary schooling for all boys and girls by 2030, the aim is to provide equal access to affordable vocational training, eliminate gender and wealth disparities, and achieve universal access to quality higher education. Education is the key that will allow many other Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to be achieved. When people are able to get quality education they can break from the cycle of poverty. Education helps to reduce inequalities and to reach gender equality. It also empowers people everywhere to live more healthy and sustainable lives. Education is also crucial to fostering tolerance between people and contributes to more peaceful societies. To deliver on Goal 4, education financing must become a national investment priority. Furthermore, measures such as making education free and compulsory, increasing the number of teachers, improving basic school infrastructure and embracing digital transformation are essential.

On the 29 November last year, two Palestinian boys were killed by Israeli forces in Jenin in the occupied West Bank. BBC Verify has pieced together what happened on the day when Basil, 15, and eight-year-old Adam were killed. The evidence has prompted Ben Saul, UN special rapporteur on human rights and counter-terrorism, to say the death of Adam appears to be a "war crime". The Israel Defense Forces said the circumstances of the deaths were “under review” but added “live fire is used only in order to remove immediate threats or for arrest purposes, following arrest protocols after exhausting other options”.

A 7-year-old girl, Sarah, was among five people who died in an overcrowded small boat in the English Channel, as they tried to reach the UK. The BBC has spoken to Sarah’s father and pieced together what happened - and why the family was taking such a great risk to reach England. Sarah was born in Belgium and grew up in Sweden. She was one of three children of Ahmed, who had fled Iraq in 2009 and spent years trying but failing to get permission to settle in Europe. Instead the family faced deportation to Iraq, so Ahmed decided that the family would meet people smuggler’s on a beach at night in France and make the sea crossing to England. It was a desperate move that ended in tragedy. Sophie Raworth presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Andrew Harding.

Divisions in the United States over gun control will be amplified in the run up to November's presidential election. That has been particularly stark in the state of Tennessee.

Democrat representative Justin Jones, megaphone in hand, backed the protestors' calls for tighter controls and was then expelled. This week in Tennessee a gun law was passed, but not one that makes it more difficult to carry weapons.
