It was terrific to take part in the Summer Course on “Legal & Technology Studies of Eco-Tourism” of Universitas Trisakti and Universitas Warmadewa. (And where better to ponder these issues than Bali.)

Pedro Arrupe made it the mission of Jesuit education to form “men and women for others”. The first Jesuit pope, Francis, was a pope for the poor and the planet. Some reflections on his legacy in yesterday’s SCMP: www.scmp.com/opinion/worl...
Opinion | The world has lost a pope dedicated to the poor and the planet
From promoting climate justice to supporting migrants, Pope Francis genuinely practised the ‘preferential option for the poor’.

The DeepSeek news has triggered major reactions, mostly re 🇺🇸🇨🇳 rivalry. Here I consider a different angle: what do the techn & practices behind DeepSeek mean for the Global South - the vast majority of the world’s population - & its prospects of harnessing AI? www.eurekastreet.com.au/could-deepse...

Countries at COP29 pulled back from a complete breakdown of the multilateral process. But the climate clock is ticking. As the baton passes to Brazil for COP30, the mission is clear: to work with Brazil to deliver a just, inclusive & ambitious climate conference:

We need international frameworks to tackle the biggest global challenges that no nation can face alone. Why US withdrawal from the WHO & Paris Agreement need not derail global cooperation: moderndiplomacy.eu/2025/01/27/t...
