Jeff Kerr: Our First Amendment Right to Receive Communications (from Monkeys) 30:14

"It is a scientific fact that these macaques, like all other primates, including humans, are communicating. They communicate in much the same way we do - facial expressions, vocalizations, body postures, those kinds of things." - Jeff Kerr Jeff Kerr is PETA foundations Chief Legal Officer. I asked him to come on the show to talk about one of PETA’s current lawsuits against the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Nathional Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). PETA is arguing that the monkeys being tested on in a government run facility are capable of communication (or “are communicating”). And that we have a constitutional right under the First Amendment to receive their communications. This could be a game changer in allowing us to see what’s really going on in labs that are funded by taxpayer money, and which have so far been censored from public view. PETA’s lawsuit follows years of NIH’s attempts to deny Freedom of Information requests banning PETA executives from its campus and illegally censoring animal advocates’ speech on NIH’s public social media pages. Through the lawsuit, PETA is seeking a live audio-visual feed to see and hear real-time communications from the macaques who have been kept isolated, used in fear experiments, and had posts cemented into their heads. Anthropologists and other scientists have studied macaque and other primate communications for decades and know that the monkeys communicate effectively and intentionally through lip smacking, fear grimaces, body language, and various cries and sounds—all of which constitute speech under the law. Primatologists can analyze that speech on a deeper level to share their stories with the world.…

Turning an idea into reality first requires a clear vision and commitment. In this episode, our guests discuss the process of translating this vision into concrete actions, and ultimately, scaling up the use of cash within an organization. Three key themes emerge: policies, processes, and partnerships. This episode features insights from: · Anna Kondakhchyan : Head of Cash and Markets at NORCAP/Norwegian Refugee Council · Dr. Kathryn Taetzsch : World Vision International's Senior Director, Global Humanitarian and Development Capacity and Capabilities · Sindhy Obias : Executive Director of the Assistance and Cooperation for Community Resilience and Development (ACCORD) Key themes explored in this episode: · The importance of translating policy commitments into tangible actions that permeate the entire organisation. · The need to recognise that changes in policy then involve numerous practical changes across an organisation, which can present challenges related to adapting to new systems and processes. · The importance of investing in evidence building and learning during the process of scaling up the use of cash. · The value of engaging stakeholders in the change process, addressing concerns, and ensuring that everyone is onboard. · The need to recognise that cash assistance may not be immediately feasible in every context and to adapt accordingly. · The value of fostering robust partnerships, particularly with local governments, to facilitate sustainability and maximise impact in communities.

In this episode we explore with experts the topic of humanitarian responses in contexts of human mobility. We discuss the challenges as well as the opportunities and innovations that exist when it comes toto effectively delivering recipient centered CVA in the Americas. Given this context, this episode of CashCast our panel of experts explores a series of questions, including: What are the problems that Cash and Voucher Assistance actors should be resolving around human mobility? How can we start to consider different populations according to their distinctive attributes, so that we can provide the most effective solutions? What changes are needed in the way that CVA is delivered so that interventions do not inadvertently increase the vulnerability of people on the move? The host and guests are: Holly Welcome Radice (host) – Regional Representative – Americas, the CALP Network. Paula Gil Baizan – Independent consultant. Lucia Steinberg - Global Cash and Voucher Assistance specialist – Danish Refugee Council. We invite you to listen in on this fascinating and in-depth conversation.

1.7: How can we use cash and voucher assistance to support universal health goals? 32:11

vor 3 years32:11

32:11

In episode 7, we discuss how health needs, and the provision of health services, in humanitarian response works and where using Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) may help. What we know already is that CVA may be used for health outcomes but giving cash via Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA) via the Minimum Expenditure Basket (MEB) isn’t enough to meet health needs. We look at best practice on including health in the MEB, innovations in using CVA on the demand side, and exciting new hybrid approaches that are bridging demand and supply to improve access and quality. Globally, meeting health needs is known to be an inherently complex challenge. This is because both the demand side (who needs care, what care do they need), and the supply side (hospitals, doctors, nurses, pharmacies – and their funding) of quality health care are critical factors. Within a humanitarian context, accessing quality health services when needed is generally difficult for socio-economically vulnerable people, since individual health needs are often unpredictable. At the same time, access and availability of quality health services is likely to be affected by the crisis. The results of post-distribution monitoring and other surveys show that people in receipt of cash, especially multipurpose cash, repeatedly spend a large proportion of the cash on accessing health services. Given this context, in this episode of the CashCast, our panel of experts explore the following questions: How do health cluster members approach meeting health needs in a humanitarian crisis? Why are health needs and health services different to other needs and services? For example, food security and markets. Should we include health needs in an MEB and thus in the MPCA transfer value? Are there recent innovations in using CVA for health outcomes? The host and guests are: Julie Lawson-McDowall (host) – Technical Advisor at the CALP Network. Andre Griekspoor – a medical doctor and public health expert with long experience in humanitarian health response. Andre is currently working in the Fragile, Conflict affected and Vulnerable settings unit of the World Health Organization' s department for Health Emergency Interventions. Among other things, he is responsible for health policy development in protracted crises, which includes approaches for health system strengthening in fragile contexts, and support to post conflict and disaster recovery planning processes. Anna Gorter – a medical doctor with a PhD in epidemiology. She has 40 years of experience working in low- and middle-income countries as a public health expert. Since 1995, she has been involved in the development of various approaches for Results Based Financing (RBF) for Health, such as health vouchers, and cash transfers. Corinne Grainger – an independent consultant working in health financing and health systems strengthening, with more than 20 years’ experience providing technical assistance across a range of intervention areas including Sexual and Reproductive Health, Family planning, MNH and adolescent health. In addition to support for programme design, management and evaluation, she has provided capacity development and strategic planning support for a range of government and NGOs.
