		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/1617187</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Gender-Based Violence and Femicide, or GBVF, remains one of the most pressing social and public health challenges of our time. Addressing it requires holistic and coordinated approaches, bringing together research, policy, and community action, within what many describe as a global pandemic of violence.<br />
<br />
GBVF research is a specialised and multi-layered field. It examines many forms of harm, physical, sexual, emotional, psychological, and economic, whether these occur in private or public spaces. It also explores how gendered violence connects with issues such as class, education, land rights, health, law enforcement, and employment.<br />
<br />
In South Africa, the National Research Foundation (NRF), through its Research, Impact, Innovation, Support, and Advancement (RIISA) Division, funds and promotes scientific research that contributes to social and economic development. In partnership with the Female Academic Leadership Fellowship (FALF), the NRF supports research focused on understanding and eliminating gender-based violence and femicide.<br />
<br />
A key initiative in this effort is the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation – National Research Foundation (DSTI-NRF) – Female Academic Leadership Fellowship (FALF) South African Research Chairs Initiative (SARChI) Chair on Gender-Based Violence and Femicide, hosted by the University of the Witwatersrand. This Chair brings together researchers, academics, and practitioners across disciplines to build a coordinated community of practice dedicated to addressing the root causes of GBVF in South Africa.<br />
<br />
And today we are honoured to have two of the researchers who participated in the 2025 FALF Research Symposium & FALF/WITS/NRF Research Chair on GBVF Launch. We have Dr. Motlalepule Nathane-Taulela and joining her is Dr. Mpho Mathebula, ]]></description>

		<title>IN CONVERSATION WITH MLUNGISI NKOSI ON SCIENCE WISE</title>
		<link>https://iono.fm/e/1614723</link>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/1614723</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[In a country where Maths and Science often stand as <br />
barriers to success, Mlungisi Nkosi has positioned himself as one of <br />
South Africa’s most inspiring education innovators. Born and raised <br />
in Roodepoort, Gauteng, Mlungisi’s own experiences as a student <br />
who once struggled with Maths shaped his passion for making these <br />
subjects more accessible to others.<br />
He is the founder of the Mlungisi Nkosi Maths and Science Centre, <br />
an initiative dedicated to improving learner performance in critical <br />
STEM subjects while equipping them with the skills needed for the <br />
future world of work. What sets his centre apart is its integrated <br />
approach, combining traditional teaching with coding, robotics, and <br />
entrepreneurship to help learners see the connection between <br />
science, technology, and real-world innovation.<br />
Beyond the classroom, Mlungisi uses his YouTube channel and <br />
social media platforms to make Maths and Science engaging for <br />
learners who might not have access to extra lessons. His online <br />
tutorials, delivered in an approachable and energetic style, have <br />
reached thousands across the country, turning complex concepts <br />
into relatable, enjoyable learning experiences.<br />
Under his leadership, the centre has produced learners who’ve gone <br />
on to pursue degrees in engineering, computer science, and <br />
medicine, a clear testament to his belief that no child should be <br />
limited by their circumstances when it comes to learning STEM.<br />
Today, Mlungisi Nkosi represents a new generation of South African <br />
educators who blend passion, technology, and purpose to shape the <br />
innovators and problem-solvers of tomorrow. ]]></description>

War, as an antonym to peace, signifies an armed conflict between countries or groups within a country, but may also translate into a conflict of media narratives.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[During the 1980's and early 1990's, the phenomenon of family murder in South Africa was perceived as being on the increase. These murders received much attention by the media and a discrete group of social scientists. <br />
<br />
A few publications were found on this phenomenon of this period, but they were largely in South African Afrikaans journals, university dissertation reports and conference proceedings. Theories that were developed on family murder were largely based on press reports, case studies and case series. <br />
<br />
These studies initially postulated that family murder was a phenomenon experienced amongst the Afrikaans speaking "white" segment of the South African population. Family murders was linked to apartheid more precisely the notion of Afrikaaner domination, is grounded on their right to determine the lives of others. <br />
<br />
 Michael Benevolent and Amo Helang speak to guest(s) Alicia Ramdharee who revisits the day her father murdered himself, mother and two siblings and Keshnie Mathi, Wellness Counsellor and Family Law Mediator who offers an expert point of view.<br />

<br />
Africa is a continent with a vast plethora of spiritualities - some of which originated on African soil and others developed through contact with people from other countries and continents. <br />
<br />
It needs to be stressed that there is not just one single African spirituality, although many of the characteristics of the African spiritualities are alike, but it may have different interpretations.<br />

<br />
Urban dictionary defines the phrase as: “The extra money that black professionals are expected to give every month to support their less fortunate family and extended families.” Unsurprisingly, much of what has been written about black tax has focused on the negative aspects.

		<title>Will social media continue to be a main source of news?</title>
		<link>https://iono.fm/e/1005972</link>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/1005972</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Research shows that social media has become the place where many people keep up with the latest news. The ability of the internet to challenge traditional media may have been underestimated as evidenced by a continuous decline in traditional media profitability. Advertising revenue has significantly shifted away from traditional media, to social media platforms and this is further fuelled by the social media preference of news consumers.<br />
<br />
Governments all over the world are trying to come up with solutions to save and restore revenue for traditional media outlets. New legislation to regulate how news is shared and paid for on social media platforms is being considered by some governments. The negative impact of Covid-19 on the economic performance of the traditional media industry is also being considered.

		<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Research shows that social media has become the place where many people keep up with the latest news. The ability of the internet to challenge traditional media may have been underestimated as evidenced by a continuous decline in traditional media profitability. Advertising revenue has significantly shifted away from traditional media, to social media platforms and this is further fuelled by the social media preference of news consumers.

Governments all over the world are trying to come up with solutions to save and restore revenue for traditional media outlets. New legislation to regulate how news is shared and paid for on social media platforms is being considered by some governments. The negative impact of Covid-19 on the economic performance of the traditional media industry is also being considered. This proposes a debate around the future of news on social media platforms.

		<description><![CDATA[Cryptocurrencies have evolved beyond the early days of highly unpredictable ups and downs in value, to a financial instrument which is being incorporated into the investment portfolios of financial institutions.

		<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Technology has played a significant role in the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic. Various trends and patterns around the spread of the virus and various communications for safety have been made to vulnerable groups through technological tools. As the globe continues to grapple with the affects of the Covid-19 pandemic, vaccine solutions have been identified as a significant weapon in the fight against the pandemic.

Distribution of a Covid-19 vaccine presents various challenges due to the unpreparedness of health care systems for the unforeseen pandemic. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, cloud computing and IoT have been identified as key features in the technological systems that will be used to manage the Covid-19 vaccine roll out all over the world.

		<description><![CDATA[Social media platforms have emerged as highly influential communication platforms through which all kinds of information is shared. Traditionally financial markets have been influenced by information which is not readily available to ordinary members of the public. Hedge fund managers have been able to drive financial market activities in ways that non-financial market participants would not be able to understand.<br />

In recent times, mobile device apps which make it easy for ordinary people to access financial markets, and social media platforms through which information is shared, have disrupted the status quo of exclusivity in financial market participation. A new generation of financial stocks and other financial asset traders are challenging what it means to trade for value in the open market.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[Most online applications have terms and privacy policy required by regulation to protect the personal information and usage data of users. Communication apps liked WhatsApp are particularly popular because they are free and efficient to use. However, the reality is that in order for these apps to be free and efficient, user information has to be collected. <br />
<br />
WhatsApp published a new privacy policy in Jabuary 2021 which details updates on the terms related to collection of user information. The changes are more explicit and elaborate explanations of how personal information will be collected, stored and used and this has sparked debate around privacy and resulted into increased popularity of other communication applications. <br />

		<description><![CDATA[Athletes can benefit in many ways with the help of technology which will put them in a better position to reach their goals. Safety in sports is improving because improvements are being made to sports protective equipment and to exercise routines which will prevent injury or other forms of shock to an athlete's physical condition. Performance of sports people is also improving as evidenced by record performance times and achievements which in the past was thought to be impossible. <br />
<br />
Currently sports fan engagement technology is popular because more fans have become digitally savvy, and have adapted to following sports on digital platforms. With this comes digital media and content platforms which keep us up to date with what is happening in the world of sports. Referees in sports are increasingly working with technology and have become better at making decisions in the game which are critical to how the game progresses.<br />

As universities, Tvet and CET colleges currently prepare for the safe return of students to Campuses amid Covid-19, they cannot neglect the psychological support that will be needed by students and staff.

		<description><![CDATA[API have been around since the 1960s. It is a topic which is commonly discussed among software developers but it is worth learning about about because it impacts the daily lives of ordinary people. APIs are built to execute repetitive tasks in the background of systems which connect devices, databases and apps without us even noticing.<br />
<br />
Connectivity in the modern digital world has driven demand for solutions which are optimised through APIs. Daily activities such as transportation through e-hailing and navigating a journey through GPS enabled applications are supported by a range of APIs.

		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/914982</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Virtual Reality also known as VR is a technology which dates as far back as 1968 when it was developed by MIT scientists. In recent years it has returned as a pioneer for new experiences in gaming, training healthcare tourism and other industries. The ability to block out the existing world to escape into a virtual world which assimilates eyesight, touch sound and physical movement is a ground breaking technological feature which has made VR more relevant in a digital world. <br />
<br />
The VR industry was historically faced with challenges such as lack of customer adoption, high costs of equipment and inadequate computer processing speed. In recent years, challenges in the VR industry have been mitigated against by various factors and this has allowed for new growth in this market. Consumers and businesses have found various applications for VR technology through it's ability to transform the way people experience activities through virtual assimilation of real world activities. In the medical field, the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic has included VR technology applications.<br />

		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/906851</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence (AI) increasingly has the ability to replicate the human brain. The world is heading towards a future where mundane and repetitive tasks are done by computer based AI. This phenomenon has sparked thought leaders into a movement of awareness which is concerned with the known applications and unknown applications of AI. Some argue that AI is here to replace humans and others argue that it is here to make humans more effective. Others have suggested that in order to keep up with AI, the human brain should be merged with AI.<br />
<br />
Industries such as logistics, banking, retail and cyber-security are being transformed by various applications of AI. Where human application is no longer efficient enough to keep up with operating activity in these industries, AI has become the best alternative for speed of execution and accuracy. Top firms across the world are investing large amounts of capital in AI procurement and this presents a business opportunity for Tech Start-Ups to develop tailored AI programs for these businesses.<br />

		<link>https://iono.fm/e/906827</link>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/906827</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[E-commerce continues to change the way value is exchanged over the internet. Goods and services are increasingly sold through online platforms as the digitally savvy consumer looks to a digital experience for their daily needs. Latest trends are pointing towards adaptation of traditional sales operating models towards digital channels. Brick and mortar retail is progressively being replaced by online stores and retail profitability is benefiting from the reduced barriers to entry in the online sales market.<br />
<br />
The Covid-19 pandemic has resulted into a rise in sales of essential items and a decline in sales of items which are not complementary to social distancing and lockdown ways of living. The domestic trade economy has become a clear beneficiary of e-commerce as lockdown legislation restricts traditional methods of trade which would contribute to the spread of the Corona virus. Big and small businesses are taking advantage of online sales as the next best option for sales within a trade environment which is restricted from traditional physical proximity to customers. <br />

		<description><![CDATA[Blockchain appears to be one of the trendiest technologies during recent years of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. A lot of hype around this technology has created wide spread debate about it's applicability and value. Its origins stem from the work of academic researchers in 1991 who were trying to solve for secure storage of digital information. However, its popularity emerged during 2009 when an anonymous character named Satoshi Nakamoto applied it in the creation of a cryptocurrency called Bitcoin. <br />
<br />
Various industries such as banking, healthcare and logistics are benefiting from the evolution of blockchain technology into digital smart contracts. Trust and decentralisation are the key qualities of blockchain technology which are paving the way to a new standard of digitalisation. Businesses in various industries are able to optimise operating activities through a new frontier of efficiencies resulting from blockchain.<br />
