- Austrian NPO One Life launches the Vienna International Pride Awards
- It is the first global event and campaign to recognize LGBTIQ+ equality change makers
- #ThankYou campaign leading to the Awards kicks off on International Thank You Day
It's time to say “Thank You”: on International Thank You Day - January 11, 2023, Vienna-based NPO, One Life, announces the launch of the Vienna International Pride Awards, a new annual campaign and event to thank and recognize the vital world of LGBTIQ+ equality heroes around the world.
The idea for the International Pride Awards came from Tony Gregory, an award-winning television director. He describes the guiding vision of the Vienna International Pride Awards as:
“A world where the rainbow of differences and preferences of LGBTIQ+ people are not only tolerated, but deeply and universally accepted and cherished”.
Official campaign mission partners are the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the MTV Staying Alive Foundation and ILGA-World (the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association). The first awards will be announced in Vienna in early June, 2023. The awardees will be selected by an experienced, independent committee of international sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression equality and human rights experts. The committee is chaired by Jeffrey O'Malley, senior advisor for the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
Separately, from 11 January and leading up to the Awards there will be a social media campaign where individuals are encouraged to post online and say “Thank You” to someone who has made a difference to their own LGBTIQ+ journey in life, under the hashtag #ThankYou.

Report: BRICS+ likely new counterpoint to G7-led geopolitical order2.5.2024 09:05:42 CEST | Press release
Los Angeles/DNA - The expansion of the BRICS group of nations into what has informally been named BRICS+ could highlight a geopolitical shift, with the new grouping positioning itself as a counterpoint to the Western-led geopolitical order, a report published by the Luskin School of Public Affairs at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) argues. The report, titled "Towards A New Global Contestation? Comparing the Governance Performance of G7 and BRICS+ Nations" examines how the ten BRICS+ countries compare to the G7 nations on factors such as provision of public goods, quality of democracy and quality of governance. It uses the Berggruen Governance Index (BGI) to measure the governance performance of countries in these three dimensions. In January 2024, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) joined the BRICS group. The term BRICS was originally coined by an economist in the 2000s to refer to a group of emerging economies: Brazil, Russia, India,
Sahel elites must move away from 'zero-sum' policies, report urges2.5.2024 08:59:23 CEST | Press release
Los Angeles/DNA - A dual economic strategy focusing on domestic economic development and international partnerships to address the underlying challenges facing the Sahel region could help Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger and Sudan to build more resilient institutions and foster long-term development, a recently published report says. The report by the Luskin School of Public Affairs at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) argues that the four countries should aim to transition away from relying exclusively on resource extraction. It attributes much of the challenges facing the four countries on unsustainable economic policies which focus on the export of raw materials. Despite some improvements in terms of public goods provision - in particular regarding social and environmental public goods - these countries continue to face significant developmental challenges, ranking among the world's poorest. Titled "Political Instability and Economic Development in the Sahel: Governance in Bu
