In this episode, the Global Hub team travels to Masig Island on Zenadh Kes, also known as Torres Strait, which lies between so-called Australia and the islands of Papua. Zenadh Kes is home to Indigenous Peoples who have lived with a deep connection to land and sea for thousands of years. The effects of climate change, including sea level rises, intense rainfall patterns, and ocean acidification, are severe on Zenadh Kes, threatening ancestral homelands and ways of life.
You’ll hear from two Indigenous Masig Islanders, Josiah Mosby and Yessie Mosby, who share stories about daily life on the island, their experiences with climate change, and their hopes for the future.
This is the first of our two-part journey to Oceania. In our next and final episode of this season, Daphne and Freddie recount their time in so-called Australia and meet with representatives of the First Nations Clean Energy Network.

"Since October, Israel’s ongoing bombardment of Gaza has destroyed over 70% of all infrastructure, including rooftop solar and power stations. Fuel supplies have been cut and residents lack consistent access to food, water and electricity." (We Are Not Numbers)
This special episode of Decolonizing Power is dedicated to raising awareness for the Repower Gaza project. Daphne and Freddie speak to Walaa Sabah, project manager of We Are Not Numbers (WANN), a youth-led Palestinian nonprofit project in the Gaza Strip. We're also joined by Lauren Mellor, from Original Power in so-called Australia.
Repower Gaza is a grassroots initiative led by young Palestinian writers from WANN. The project installs emergency solar kits to enable displaced WANN writers to continue documenting the realities of Gazans on the ground. Amidst the severe humanitarian and energy crisis in Gaza, these solar kits also enable life-saving medical interventions and allow Palestinians to reconnect with lost family members.
Learn more about the impact of the project and the situation on the ground by following We Are Not Numbers on social media. You can contribute to the project by donating here: https://secure.everyaction.com/nqnFvmWo40K_m3nSTlqCmg2?fbclid=IwAR1UJv3zjaFYJB919mVxDlfXwYvxA8NHSfepmqN4IeyL06pGvh1-TQ0p7oQ

We're back! After taking time for rest and reflection, Freddie, Daphne and Mihskakwan return with the final episode of their four-part Colombia series, featuring SENA instructor and electrical engineer Jose Maria Cotes Mengual. At SENA, the Servicio Nacional de Aprendizaje, Jose trains his students in electricity fundamentals, residential electrical installations, and photovoltaic solar energy generation systems.
In this episode, Freddie and Daphne take you on a trip to Jose’s matriarchal Rancheria in the La Guajira region. On their way back to Riohacha, they interview Jose about his experience teaching Wayuu students, his connection to his home Rancheria in La Guajira, and his hopes for the region's future.
We'll be back soon with more episodes about our team's visit to so-called Australia and the South Pacific Islands.

Please join us for the first part of our interview with Nelson Colón, president and CEO of the Puerto Rico Community Foundation (FCPR), and Feliciano Rodriguez Domínguez, a Catholic priest and Secretary of the Board of Directors of Pirucho Coop in Caguas, Puerto Rico. Pirucho Coop started out in response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rico’s energy system. With the help of FCPR, Pirucho Coop established the first solar energy community under a cooperative model on the island. Nelson and Feliciano share how they’ve overcome limited resources and structural challenges on their way to finding the right model for their community.
The second part of this interview will be available on November 2nd. Please stay tuned!
