Ukraine Invasion Will Raise Prices For These Three Goods*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Russia-Ukraine War, Ukraine* The Russian invasion of Ukraine is impacting prices throughout the world. The latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) revealed that prices steadily trekked higher by 7.5 percent last month year-over-year—the fastest rate seen since in about four decades. Now, with Russian president Vladimir Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine, that number is expected to shoot up even higher in the coming months. And already, there’s talk that inflation could reach and perhaps eclipse 10 percent, which would surely bring about even more pain to the pocketb... read more

Burnout and Moral Injury
I never had a name for it. But there was a frustration, something like anger and a kick in the gut, that I was being required to do things as a teacher that I knew were bad practice, not just useless in achieving success, but detrimental to my students. I first encountered the term "moral injury" in writing about the medical field (in an article no longer accessible on line). But I recognized it immediately from the last many years of my teaching career, and I think it's a useful concept to add to the whole "Is it low morale, or burnout, or what?" It has roots in work with soldier... read more

On Climate Change, Africa Is Where the Rubber Hits the Road*Ivor Ichikowitz, Richard Munang* *Climate Change, Africa* Young Africans don’t need to have their feet held to the fire on the question of implementing climate commitment because they already feel the heat.

While global leaders make and reiterate pledges as they did at the COP26 “Climate Summit” in Glasgow late last year, it is worth remembering that there currently exists no enforcement mechanism to hold them to their words.
