Join Musharaf Ahmad and Dr Tariq Bajwa for Wednesday’s show where we will be discussing : « Global Hunger: Is the WTO Fuelling Food Insecurity? » and « Male Suicide ».

Global Hunger

Global hunger is worsening, yet the World Trade Organisation’s policies often make things harder for the very farmers who feed the world. By favouring powerful nations and corporations, trade rules can leave poorer countries dependent on costly imports and unable to compete. The result is deepening food insecurity and millions going hungry. The question is clear: is the WTO part of the solution, or part of the problem?

Male Suicide

On World Suicide Prevention Day (10 September) we face a crisis that can no longer be ignored.
Each year, more than 720,000 people die by suicide worldwide, with young people aged 15–29 among the most at risk. In the UK alone, 7,055 lives were lost in 2023—around 19 a day. Over three-quarters were men, making suicide the leading cause of death for men under 50.
It’s time to break the silence around male emotional suffering, share stories, explore support, and shine a light on hope.
