Without question, a central tool in the
fight to contain and drive out the scourge of Ebola is the digital
communications infrastructure.

An American journalist is brutally murdered by ISIS
terrorists and the bombs are flying, coalitions are formed to attack
them and put an end to their heinous crimes...all of which I support.
World of Children Award Co-Founder & Board Chair
For me, what is so ruthless about Ebola
in particular, is the way it forces victims to anticipate death, be
ostracized and feared and remain void of human touch and personal
connection. My test results came back negative for Ebola. I had never
been happier to have Malaria.
Founding Director at World Health Equity
I spoke with Anthony Egbase,
exclusively, to learn more about how the Obama administration's plans to
deal with ISIS and Boko Haram in the wake of the escalated terrorist
attacks.

Are we promoting ignorance and hysteria?
The widespread ignorance of Africa among the American population could
pose a challenge on public health workers' efforts to spread awareness
about Ebola in the United States.
With the possibility that the Chibok girls will go
free soon, we must intensify our efforts for the wider global goal that
every girl has the chance to be at school, safe and free from violence.

If oil prices stay below $90 per barrel
for any length of time, we will witness massive fiscal squeezes and
regime changes in one or more of the following countries: Iran, Bahrain,
Ecuador, Venezuela, Algeria, Nigeria, Iraq, or Libya. It will be a
movie we have seen before.

The lack of credible information from
official security sources and unresolved past conflicts has helped to
trigger a low in the national morale. Nigerians largely feel that they
are not getting the answers that they need, so they are creating or
finding ways to get them.
While it is important to be well-read and keep up
with the news, it can be equally important to make sure the news stories
mean something to you personally.

Over the last few months, the price of
Brent crude oil lost over 20 percent of its value, dropping below $90
just yesterday and hitting its lowest level in over two years. In
consequence, oil producers will no longer be able to rely on oil
revenues to pay their bills.

We need to wake up and realize all children,
especially those of color -- girls and boys -- need adults to stop
criminalizing them and recognize the special risks facing our girls.
President, Children's Defense Fund
The discussions quietly occurring in the
corridors of the White House, CIA, Pentagon, and in other capitals
throughout the world certainly point to grave concern on the part of
policy and decision makers about the possibility of a worst-case
scenario becoming reality.
CEO of Country Risk Solutions and COO of RiskSouk
The reality is that the world is a big place and evil
lurks in many corners. It's hard to find the emotional bandwidth to
care about each and every new report concerning religious persecution in
one foreign nation or another.
Director of Legislative Affairs, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
Education may be scary for the thousands
of Nigerians who are afraid to send their children to school in a
region terrorized by Boko Haram. A society without education is even
scarier.
President, the American University of Nigeria (AUN)
In recent years, the world has seen enormous human
rights gains with respect to sexual orientation and gender identity and
expression. However, there have also been substantial setbacks.
The Nigerian conflict is far more
complex than a Muslim-Christian divide. Social, economic, political,
ethnic, and historical dimensions are all intertwined.
