Sudan's famine crisis, why productivity matters + girls who truck
from Hack · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation
150,000 people dead, 12 million displaced, 30 million without enough to eat: a terrible tragedy is unfolding in Sudan. So how did it get to this? Hack speaks to the Head of UNICEF in Sudan about the world's worst humanitarian crisis. And back home: why is everyone talking about productivity right now (and does it mean we all need to work harder)? Plus 6% of Aussie truckies are women, and most of the workforce is getting old. So we speak to young women about why they're now driving big rigs.
