UN Secretary-General António Guterres addressed the World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-23). Radio frequencies are the backbone of global communications, vital for education, healthcare, and climate monitoring. Expanding services and bridging the digital divide are crucial for reducing inequalities and advancing Sustainable Development Goals.

The finite radio spectrum demands efficient, equitable, and coordinated use to prevent interference. WRC-23 is a critical platform for governments, the private sector, and academia to collaborate on fair regulation, fostering inclusive investment and innovation. This aligns with responsible technology use and outer space preservation for future generations.

Guterres urged participants to share the radio spectrum wisely to build a sustainable future for all.

Climate change, primarily caused by affluent populations, disproportionately impacts vulnerable groups globally. Up to one billion people may be displaced by 2050, yet wealthy nations often show hostility towards refugees. Professor Carmen G. Gonzalez explores the link between climate change, racial subordination, and legal responses to this displacement.

This program is from the DeWitt Higgs Memorial Lecture series.

JP Viñals joined Activists Coming To Inform Our Neighborhood (ACTION) in 2013 to address environmental and social issues in Hunts Point, South Bronx. The neighborhood, home to New York's largest food distribution center, endures 15,000 daily trucks, causing severe air pollution and some of the nation's highest asthma rates.

As ACTION's president, Viñals focused on transforming the defunct 1.25-mile Sheridan Expressway into a vibrant boulevard. This expressway restricts access to the Bronx River and green spaces, forcing heavy truck traffic onto local streets, harming residents and contributing to pollution. ACTION supports a broader campaign to replace it with housing, hospitals, and green areas, leading school presentations and community education efforts.
